426: C426 The Ceremony

C426 The Ceremony

"Rise!"

A ceremonial officer stood there and shouted. The people holding the instruments below all began to play. For a moment, the sound of the ceremonial music filled the sky.

The surrounding onlookers all looked inside curiously.

There was a tall platform inside, and there was a huge bronze cauldron on top of it.

These things had been forged a month ago, and they were finally completed a few days ago.

As the forging time of the platform was shorter and shorter, there were no complicated decorative patterns carved on it.

This was also the reason why such a tall altar was completed in a month.

The altar was used to communicate with the heaven and earth. At the same time, it was also a necessity to ask the heaven if it was suitable to be called emperor.

As the son of the heaven, naturally, the heaven had to ask the heaven's meaning.

Since when did the sacrificial altar appear? It was already impossible to find it. However, this sacrificial altar would be used every time Your Majesty offered sacrifices to the heaven or ascended the throne.

However, it would be grander than the sacrificial altar that everyone was looking at right now.

Soldiers in uniform stood around the altar to prevent anyone from disturbing the ceremony.

The sun was bright today, and there was nothing bad about it.

Furthermore, this was an auspicious day that had been chosen a long time ago.

After the music was played, a large group of officials and generals arrived around the altar, waiting for the arrival of their new emperor.

"Princess Su Xin, no, Your Majesty, the Heaven-Worshipping Feast is about to begin!" One. A middle-aged man who was old but did not have a beard or Adam's apple carefully reminded Su Xin.

He had already started to serve the Great Zhou Dynasty a long time ago. It was the royal family, but because this dynasty had broken through to the imperial city... As a result, the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty had started to flee. He had also followed the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty. He entered the secular world.

However, they did not know anything. They relied on the gold and silver that they had brought out to exchange for some money and lived a life that was close to living in seclusion.

Eunuch Qiao originally thought that he would live in seclusion forever, but before that... The soldiers of Great Zhou Dynasty found him and invited him to serve the royal family of Great Zhou Dynasty. Only now did he know that the Great Zhou Dynasty had made a comeback.

As a loyal father-in-law of the Great Zhou Dynasty like Eunuch Su, he didn't care about his old age and still chose to donate all his remaining wealth to the army of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

When he saw Princess Su Xin, who was the only one left from the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he called the heavens' eye '.

Next was the coronation ceremony. As someone who had served the royal family for so many years and had entered the palace since young, he had some understanding of the ceremony and the coronation ceremony.

Therefore, Eunuch Qiao had contributed a lot to today's ceremony, and he was even willing to enjoy it!

"Alright!" Su Xin looked at herself in the bronze mirror and was lost in thought. After Eunuch Qiao's reminder, she finally reacted.

With Eunuch Qiao's help and the music outside, Su Xin walked out of the palace step by step and appeared in front of everyone.

Today, Su Xin was solemn and elegant. Looking at her, people could not help but become serious.

"The ceremony will begin now!" Eunuch Qiao, who was standing beside her, shouted loudly at the top of his voice. His voice spread to all the people who were watching the ceremony. They all heard it clearly!

The original ceremonial music changed immediately after Eunuch Qiao shouted. This song was even more exciting.

Su Xin walked slowly towards the altar with everyone following her. She walked slowly to the side of the bronze cauldron.

The soldiers standing next to the bronze cauldron had a serious look on their faces as they handed the torch in their hands to Su Xin.

Su Xin solemnly took the torch and held it in her hand.1

A young man standing below took out the offering in his hand. Looking at the ceremonial rites in his hand, he said loudly, "The Great Zhou Dynasty is blessed by the weather and deserves to live. However, the members of the Imperial Family were murdered. And they lost the world. Today, my master, Su Xin..."

The young man read out the ceremonial rites one by one. His voice was long and steady. One could tell that he had practiced it many times.

This ceremonial rites was specially written by a great scholar, so it was very professional. Although the whole text was short, it was very refined.

After reading the ceremonial rites for about ten minutes, it finally explained.

Everyone's attention was once again focused on Su Xin.

Under everyone's gaze, Su Xin threw the torch into the bronze cauldron.

The tree branches and the like that were placed in the cauldron were lit up by the torch and black smoke drifted out from the cauldron.

The dynasties in this world believed in the five elements very much. Metal, wood, water, fire and earth. Each dynasty represented one of them, and they were constantly replaced by dynasties that countered each other.

The current dynasty symbolized the wood element. The army of this dynasty, the palace attire, and so on were all green in color.

By burning the tree branches in the cauldron with torches, it was equivalent to telling the heavens that the new Great Zhou Dynasty used fire.

This was very much in line with the five elements of this world.

The fire burned the dried branches in the cauldron, and wisps of black smoke drifted into the air.

Su Xin looked up at the sky, afraid that if there were thunder or anything else in the sky, it would cause the people below to have some ideas.

Compared to the sudden thunder during the sacrificial ceremony, it must be the dissatisfaction of the heavens. You call yourself the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven. Now that the heavens have thunder, you are not fit to be the Son of Heaven.

And now, Su Xin was a traitor. If the heavens were to strike with lightning, the followers would think that the heavens would not allow the restoration of Great Zhou Dynasty. It was very likely that this would cause many people to leave!

This was what this world and Lin Rann's previous world thought.

Su Xin prayed in her heart, hoping that there would not be any strange phenomenon in the heavens.

The withered branches in the bronze cauldron were all burnt up in the end, and the black smoke that drifted out was also dissipating.

The ministers and generals standing below the altar, led by Great General Chen Guang, all knelt on the ground and shouted with their heads lowered, "Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"

Lin Rann stood in the crowd outside, watching everything that was happening inside.

He could have entered and gotten Su Xin's permission, but he was rejected by Lin Rann himself.

Lin Rann knew that he was only a flower farmer in this world. He just happened to bump into Su Xin by accident. If Su Xin encountered any difficulties, she would come and find him. He would still help her no matter what. He would help her.
