Outside the moat, on top of the tower, Shen Jiayu squinted her eyes, glanced at the altar, and asked the servant next to her, "How is it? How many people have gone up?"
"One hundred and twenty-eight." The servant replied cautiously, "The next one is the Crown Princess."
"Get ready!" When Shen Jiayu heard this, she quickly turned her eyes to the dozen or so strong men behind her, waiting for her daughter to go up to the altar before ordering thousands of sparrows to be released into the air!
In Broken Finger Mountain, Yao Jiajiu, Minister of Rites, could not wait for Dongfang Lingxi, so he had to change the order and ordered people to summon Zhong Liyuyan to the rooftop.
Zhongli Yuyan straightened her body, her back was straight, she had never been so nervous like now.
Under the anxious eyes of Zhong Liyi and Fu Guogong Rongyu, she walked up the stairs and slowly walked up to the sacrificial platform.
The Sky Spirit Stone is a palm-sized emerald-colored stone, unlike ordinary emeralds. There are three lines cracked inside it, and these three lines happen to be the three rivers running through the Jiuyou Continent, cutting the entire Jiuyou Continent like a cake. , Divided into three parts of similar size.
Leaving aside those small affiliated countries, Wei, Chu, and Ning each stand a part!
Zhongli Yuyan had only heard about the Heavenly Spirit Stone from the storyteller, but when she saw it today, she was amazed!
Following the example of Emperor Ning's concubines, she slowly bowed to the Tianling Stone, and waited for Yao Jia to speak before daring to touch it.
On the seat, Yu Chimo couldn't help but frowned, looked back at Huaying, and asked in a low voice, "How does the Ministry of Rites do things? The crown prince's side concubine is actually in front of the crown prince's concubine, and she doesn't obey the rules at all!"
"His Royal Highness, calm down." Hua Ying quickly persuaded, "It's fine if the order of the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince's side concubine is wrong, as long as Zhongli Wanyun is the last one on stage, our people will not make mistakes!"
"En." Yu Chimo nodded thoughtfully, and asked again, "What surprise are you preparing this time?"
"Master, I'll see you later, don't you know?" Huaying pretended to be mysterious.
After all, Yu Chimo was a child who came out of the palace, and he had long been used to the tricks of the concubines in the harem, and was not curious, so he just responded lightly, "Okay."
Huaying's smile froze on the scarred face.
"Touching the Spiritual Stone—"
Yao Jia suddenly raised his voice.
Zhongli Yuyan was excited, squeezed her sweaty palm, slowly raised her right hand, separated her five fingers, and solemnly touched that emerald stone!
Outside the moat, on the high tower, Shen Jiayu waved her long arm when she saw this, and said coldly, "Do it!"
As soon as she gave an order, a dozen or so servants immediately opened the sacks in their hands, and thousands of skylarks followed the rising sun in the direction of Broken Finger Mountain and headed towards them!
"Your Majesty! Look quickly! Behind you, behind you..." Li De'an was the first to spot the colorful skylark, and couldn't help but cry out in surprise, "Thousands of birds sing together, this is a rare auspicious omen once in a thousand years!"
Emperor Ning was about to doze off, but was suddenly awakened by the noise of the courtiers. He fixed his eyes on Zhongli Yuyan on the altar, and then immediately turned his head to look at the skylark behind him!
Colorful skylarks covered the entire sky.
Immediately afterwards, a fiery red green luan phoenix rushed straight into the sky, interpreting the scene of a hundred birds facing the phoenix to the extreme!
Zongzheng Fusu looked at Yu Chimo who was sitting opposite him.
Yu Chimo's face was terribly gloomy, and he coldly glanced at Huaying who was also stunned to one side, and said in a low voice, "Is this the surprise you prepared?!"
