Chapter 160 The Cold Imperial Master and Her Cute Little Fox 9
Chapter 160 The Cold Imperial Master and Her Cute Little Fox 9
Emperor Xia Wen finally climbed onto the altar and began to burn incense and worship.
Throw the prepared offerings into the incense burner one by one.
The priest knelt down and read the sacrificial words.
"The emperor ascends to heaven and shines down upon the earth. The spirits of the earth gather together to bring peace and prosperity..."
Fire in July.
The neatly dressed officials and Emperor Xia Wen were soon sweating profusely.
Only Mu Wanxi was sitting under the canopy, her fingertips running back and forth in the little fox's fluffy and soft fur, feeling relaxed and comfortable.
"God of heaven, bring peace and tranquility, worship the spirits of the earth..."
Most of the sacrificial words had been read, but there was still not a single cloud in the sky.
Eunuch Lian couldn't help but glance at Mu Wanxi again, and saw that she was concentrating on feeding the little fox in her arms.
The cakes and pastries in the Great Xia Palace are very good, and Emperor Xia Wen is a man who knows how to eat.
Mu Wanxi couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
He also did not forget to secretly take some pastries and throw them to the furry ball in his sea of consciousness who was drooling with greed.
Little Tongzi was so moved that he burst into tears, his mouth filled with snot and tears.
"Wow, its host hasn't forgotten it. I'm so touched."
It thought that its host in this world had a new love, and it would be neglected and out of favor.
"Woo woo woo, from now on it will go through heaven and earth for its host, and will follow its master through life and death, and will remain loyal and never abandon him..."
The little dumpling puffed up his cheeks and spoke incoherently.
Mu Wanxi:······
You don't have to.
If you don't know how to use idioms, you don't have to use them...
The little fox from overseas also ate with gusto, but his eating manner was obviously much more gentle and graceful than that of Xiao Tongzi. However, due to the inconvenience of not having hands, there was inevitably a trace of pastry crumbs on the corners of his mouth.
Mu Wanxi curled the corners of her lips slightly, took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped him clean.
The little fox blinked its bright fox eyes and lowered its head shyly.
Mu Wanxi couldn't help but think back to last night, when a shy little fox couldn't stand the teasing anymore and turned back into a fox, refusing to change back no matter what.
It made her grit her teeth and feel both amused and helpless.
She took off all her clothes and did this to her.
But what can I do? It’s my own little fox, so I can only pamper it.
Mu Wanxi sighed silently.
Looking up at the high platform opposite, Emperor Xia Wen was sweating profusely and his lips were a little chapped.
His face was a little pale, and there was some anxiety between his brows. He was looking in the direction of Mu Wanxi.
The sacrificial words had been read out, but there was still no moisture in the air and it was unbearably hot.
Mu Wanxi gave him a calm look, indicating that Emperor Xia Wen should pray himself.
Emperor Xia Wen was a little surprised. They were so far apart, and he clearly did not hear what Mu Wanxi said, but he seemed to understand her instructions.
He pondered for a moment, cleared his throat, and began a long speech before finally getting to the point.
"I beg the gods to protect our Great Xia country and send down rain to relieve the suffering of the people."
As he said this, he bowed.
Just as he finished speaking, a strong wind suddenly blew up above the altar, and the dark clouds in the sky instantly blocked the scorching sun, bringing a hint of coolness.
Emperor Xia Wen showed a look of delight and looked at the scene in astonishment.
A lot of onlookers also gathered outside the altar.
They all knew that the emperor would personally offer sacrifices to heaven and pray for rain for them today, so they all gathered around to watch.
When they saw that the sky was really covered with dark clouds, they all showed expressions of excitement, and some even shouted loudly.
"Clouds, it's really clouds, we are saved! We are saved!!"
"It's raining! Look! It's really raining!!"
People danced in the heavy rain, and some even hugged each other and cried for joy.
They were saved.
All the officials were also very surprised, not knowing who shouted first.
"God bless our Great Xia! Long live our emperor! Long live our emperor! Long, long live our emperor!"
In an instant, all the civil and military officials bowed their heads and shouted.
"God bless our Great Xia! Long live our emperor! Long live our emperor! Long, long live our emperor!"
The sound resounded through the sky and lasted for a long time.
Even the people watching on the side knelt down and kowtowed.
Shouting "Long live the emperor".
Emperor Xia Wen stood on the high platform, with his head raised and his arms open, letting the rain pour on his face.
He couldn't help but let out a long cry to the sky.
"God bless Daxia!"
After the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven was over, an evening banquet was held on the upper floor.
After changing his clothes, Emperor Xia Wen still couldn't hide the joy on his face.
"There is still some time before the dinner. I wonder if the fairy lady would like to go to the side hall to rest first."
"No need."
After Mu Wanxi finished speaking, she turned her wrist and took out a pill.
"Your Majesty, you have just been caught in the rain. Take a pill to dispel the cold first, so as not to catch a cold."
Eunuch Lian took it respectfully and handed it to Emperor Xia Wen.
Emperor Xia Wen quickly swallowed the pill.
The warmth flows out from every limb, throughout the body, making you feel comfortable all over.
Emperor Xia Wen smiled even more.
"Thank you, Fairy. What are your plans for the future?"
Emperor Xia Wen asked tentatively.
Mu Wanxi glanced out the window and saw the heavy rain still pouring down.
"This rain can only temporarily solve the urgent problem. The drought is not over yet. I will stay in Beijing for a few more months until the drought is completely resolved, and then I will leave."
Emperor Xia Wen frowned when he heard this.
I also took a look at the heavy rain outside. Yes, this rain cannot completely solve the drought. If there is no rain in the future, the drought will come back.
Think of this.
Emperor Xia Wen turned his head and looked at Mu Wanxi.
"Why do you want to leave, Fairy? Why don't you stay in the capital? I will definitely not treat you unfairly."
Mu Wanxi said nothing, but lowered her head, as if she was thinking.
"Does Fairy have any other concerns?"
Mu Wanxi raised her head and said hesitantly.
"My master once warned me not to interfere too much in worldly affairs. This time I just couldn't bear to see the people suffer. But if I stayed..."
Emperor Xia Wen became anxious upon hearing this.
"Fairy, you must put the people first. Great Xia cannot live without you. In recent years, Great Xia has been hit by natural disasters. If you leave, the people of Great Xia will be in dire straits. Please think twice."
You little old man are really good at moral blackmail, Mu Wanxi complained in her heart but did not show it on her face.
"Well, whatever, maybe this is God's will."
Before Emperor Xia Wen could feel secretly happy after hearing this, Mu Wanxi said again.
"But, Your Majesty, what I said before was not a joke. If the natural disaster of the Great Xia Kingdom cannot be fundamentally resolved, the disaster will be difficult to eliminate. Your Majesty, please think twice."
Emperor Xia Wen frowned upon hearing this.
He remembered what Mu Wanxi said yesterday.
Lu Zhen, Lu family, took my dragon energy...
After today's rain-praying event, Emperor Xia Wen is now firmly convinced that he is the true dragon emperor of the Great Xia Kingdom.
Otherwise, why was it that only he could pray for such heavy rain, but no one else could?
Emperor Xia Wen waved his sleeves.
"Come here and prepare a decree."
