Under the gaze of everyone, the emperor, holding Yao Guangyue, walked down step by step on the carriage frame and human ladder.
The ministers on both sides of the road knelt down, it was a huge scene.
After a group of ministers finished shouting "Long live the emperor", the emperor said "excuse me" and everyone stood up, their faces darkening again.
It was not for any other reason, but because when they were kneeling to worship the emperor just now, Qin Xuezhen was actually standing next to the emperor, and the queen looked very proud.
The emperor never expected that the queen would disguise Qin Xuezhen as a palace maid, hide her in her carriage, and now get out of the carriage with her.
Fortunately, just in case, the emperor held Yao Guangyue in his arms early on, so he was not bewitched by the evil woman.
But even so, the emperor could always smell a strange fragrance.
This fragrance always attracted the emperor to look at Qin Xuezhen, making the emperor dare not get close to the queen at all.
Even though the person was standing next to him, the emperor wished there was a road between them.
Fortunately, the queen didn't care much about this matter at the time, and followed the emperor to the Temple of Heaven to worship their ancestors.
However, a more ridiculous side soon emerged. Even though the emperor held incense in both hands to worship his ancestors, Yao Guangyue did not put it down.
Instead, he followed the example of the common people, got a big cloth bag, put Yaoguangyue in it, and held it in his arms.
However, the emperor had little experience in holding a child, which made Yao Guangyue very distressed.
[Ah, this is so uncomfortable. What happened to these two pieces of cloth? Am I really that heavy? They're so tight, my face is almost squashed!]
Listening to Yao Guangyue's wailing, the emperor felt distressed, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't burn incense with one hand!
The one who loved the child the most was the mother. The imperial concubine listened to Yaoguangyue's wailing and glared at the emperor, but she was standing behind him and no one could see.
After finally finishing burning the incense, the emperor raised his hand to pick up Yao Guangyue and listened to the people from the Ministry of Rites singing the prayer.
At this time, veins had already appeared on the emperor's forehead.
Because the prayer was too long, and although Yao Guangyue was only a hundred days old, her weight skyrocketed.
It was fine if he held her for a while, but after holding her for too long, the emperor felt his arms aching extremely.
But the emperor didn't dare to let her go. Qin Xuezhen was standing next to the queen, and the emperor was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
In the end, he could only cough lightly. The eunuch next to him saw that the emperor was sweating profusely and coughing, so he knew that something was wrong with his master.
So he hurried over and asked a few questions in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, are you okay? Are you tired?"
The emperor couldn't help gritting his teeth. He wanted to say that the little princess was too heavy and it was a bit difficult for him to hold her.
But looking at his daughter staring at him, he felt a little embarrassed.
[System, is my cheap dad's health failing? Why does it feel like his entire arm is shaking after he's been holding me for a while?]
[Hurry up and check for him. Did Qin Xuezhen do something to my cheap dad again?]
After hearing Yao Guangyue's reminder, the system hurriedly started a physical examination on the emperor. However, after all the trouble, there was no problem, so he asked with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
"Host, are you sure it's the Emperor's health that's failing, and not that you're too heavy?"
At that moment, Yao Guangyue even wanted to die. In her previous life, she had always maintained a healthy weight and no one had ever said that she was fat.
"Do you dare to repeat what the system just said? Believe it or not, I will shoot you today!"
[Look at you! Even if your core processor were the size of a walnut, you wouldn't be able to say such a cruel thing. I'm warning you, if you dare to mess with me again, I'll kill myself and put an end to it!]
After hearing this, the emperor hugged Yao Guangyue tightly in his arms. Even if the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, he didn't dare to tremble.
After hearing this, the imperial concubine beside him couldn't help but despise the emperor.
She thought to herself that her daughter was so small that even the emperor couldn't hold her. She was afraid that all the martial arts she had practiced before were useless.
However, the emperor was good at making excuses. He gritted his teeth and gave a few words of advice to the people around him.
"Tell that man from the Ministry of Rites to sing the prayer faster. He's so slow! If he gets the little princess sunburned, I'll skin him alive!"
The people below gasped. When the emperor became cruel, it was really scary. So they didn't dare to stop for a moment and hurried to notify the people from the Ministry of Rites.
When the emperor's words of skinning someone alive reached the ears of the Minister of Rites, the prayer was almost sung wrong.
He had no choice but to end it hastily. Then the emperor came out and said a few simple words, which brought up the main topic.
"Now I have brought the little princess here to pay respect to our ancestors and worship the heavens. Because my three sons are thousands of miles away, protecting the people of Yaoguang Country, the incense for the princes and princesses will be led by the little princess."
"However, I have another concern. Some time ago, I received a tip from my ancestors that the real little princess is a sign of good fortune sent from heaven. Today, I brought the little princess here to worship our ancestors and verify this auspicious sign."
After saying this, the people below invited all the Taoists who had recently gathered in the imperial city to come over.
They were ordered to read Yao Guangyue's fortune. One said that the little princess would be rich and powerful, while the other said that the little princess would have the blessing of stabilizing her family and country.
In the final analysis, it's nothing more than a bunch of nice words, and the people below may not believe them all.
Just at this moment, a noise suddenly came from the woods not far away, and then a bird covered in fire emerged from the woods.
The bird was huge in size and covered in fire. When it flew, it made bursts of chirping sounds.
The bird flew over the emperor, circled a few times and then suddenly disappeared.
Yao Guangyue was stunned by this scene and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
[Wow, my cheap dad is really good at doing tricks. I thought he was just using these Taoist priests to trick people, but he didn't expect this. How did he do that?]
Present today are not only court officials from all walks of life, but also common people who have come from far and wide.
The scene just now was also seen by the people. A group of people knelt down and shouted that the true form of the phoenix had appeared.
At this time, an elderly Taoist priest stood up, his voice piercing the sky.
"The Qilin symbolizes good fortune, curing all ailments. This old man believes that this little princess is not the reincarnation of a phoenix, but rather the child of a Qilin. This Qilin child can help people overcome disasters and difficulties."
As soon as these words were spoken, the group of people believed it even more. This time, even the court officials knelt down and kowtowed to congratulate the emperor for having the daughter of Qilin.
At this time, a voice came from Yao Guangyue's mind.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for reaching 10% of the plot's faith value, 5% of which comes from the faith of the people of the Temple of Heaven! Reminder to the host, the antidote to the True Love Potion can now be redeemed.]
