Alluring His Wife: The Evil King's Fifth Consort

At the foot of the mountain, there was a desolate scene of rotten wood and rotten gra.s.s. At the waist of the mountain, there was a cl.u.s.ter of flowers, and a large area of beautiful Su flowers bloomed, and at the top of the mountain there were pine trees and fresh green clouds.

Unfortunately, these beautiful sights could only be enjoyed by the royalty. They all sat on sedan s and enjoyed this comfort. As for the civil and martial officials, as well as the young mistresses, they could only be helped up the mountain step by step by the maidservants. When they arrived at the mountain peak, they were already drenched in sweat, and their morning makeup had already been painstakingly painted with sweat.

Even though they had suffered, they were still willing to endure it. After all, the heirs of the royal family would be present today, and even the Abandoned Crown Prince who was imprisoned in the Cold Palace had come to the Heavenly Maiden Mountain.

Although he wore a silver mask on his face, his eyes that were as long and cold as an ancient well made one unable to help themselves from sinking deep into his body. His thin lips were pursed into an indifferent curve, and his beautiful jaw was tightened as he emitted a cold aura.

With regards to the Fifth Prince and the other daughters, no one dared to have high expectations for them. After all, Yun Xie had already lost four of his consorts before this.

Next to the Fifth Prince was the warm, jade-like Third Prince Yun Rui. He was born with a rich and handsome appearance, and on his face was a faint smile, even though it was just a light smile, it was enough to make the hearts of these young geniuses beat faster. Although the Third Prince had been conferred the t.i.tle of a prince, he had yet to marry the consort.

Following that was the Fourth Prince, who was the most skilled at eating, drinking, and entertainment, as well as Abandoned Crown Prince, whose faces were filled with dejection.

Wei Yuanwei indifferently swept her gaze across Abandoned Crown Prince"s face and sighed inwardly. Even if she lost to Jiang Shan, she shouldn"t have lost to this pride that was buried deep in her bones. After all, he still had the ident.i.ty of a prince.

Wei Yuanwei only felt a sharp light falling on her body. She lifted his eyes to look at Yun Xie"s ice-cold eyes, as if he was giving a warning to another man.

Wei Yuanwei could not help but laugh, the faint smile, in Yun Xie"s eyes was like a blooming Jasmine, her lips curled up.

Wei Guanshu took in the interaction between the two. The handkerchief in her hand had already been messed up as she squinted at the altar, his eyes revealing a cold smile. Today, Wei Yuanwei would fall from the clouds, what she wanted to do was to calmly watch the show.

Drum sounds rang out and everyone was divided into two rows. A man wearing a white Eight Trigrams Dress walked over with a horsetail whisk in hand as he chanted something. Behind him were a dozen or so children.

"Is this person Heavenly Master Wu? "What a grand atmosphere." Yin Sheng muttered.

Wei Yuanwei merely looked at the approaching Heavenly Master Wu indifferently. She kept having the nagging feeling that the eyes of the Heavenly Master Wu on her body were filled with hostility.

"I heard that the people in the palace say that the Heavenly Master Wu"s mana is high and she is proficient in alchemy. The emperor takes his Free and Unrestrained Pill every day. He is the emperor"s famous person." Ah Qing clicked his tongue in wonder.

What powerful mana, Wei Yuanwei did not believe it at all, it was just that the ancient people were putting on a show, and the pill was something even more inedible, it contained lead poison, if used long-term, there would be a day when the Emperor will be poisoned.

"Grand Rites begins." The eunuch"s shrill voice sounded.

Everyone"s face revealed a holy expression.

The official in charge of the priest came forward and said a drowsy prayer, but it was nothing more than an eulogy.

"I respectfully invite Heavenly Master Wu to represent Your Majesty, Empress Mu Fu." The eunuch brought a bowl of clear water over.

Heavenly Master Wu muttered as she took the white jade bowl and splashed the clear water onto the Emperor Queen"s body.

The emperor held the empress"s hand and ascended the altar that was ten meters high.

The palace maids brought the golden bowls of the five valleys to the Emperor and Empress.

"Sacrifice to heaven and earth, and pray that the next year"s weather will be smooth sailing."

The two of them tossed the Five Grains in their hands up into the air. The spectators below the stage all extended their hands out, hoping that they would be able to receive more good fortune.

Yin Sheng grinned as she showed the five grains in her hand to Wei Yuanwei. "When we go back, I"ll make a wager for his, and then sew this fortune into the wager."

Wei Yuanwei smiled and poked her head, but when she saw her carefully putting the grain in the pouch on his waist, he did not have the heart to shock her.

"First, we pray that our ancestors can protect the Eastern Chu in its prosperity."

The emperor and empress knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Wei Yuanwei laughed coldly: "The long-term protection of this Jiang Shan does not lie with the ancestors. It lies with the character and people"s hearts of the ruler.

Although Wei Yuanwei"s words were spoken in an extremely soft voice, they were heard by the third prince who had extremely good hearing. His warm and gentle eyes flowed with a slightly bright brilliance: "Fifth Brother, you have married an extraordinary woman."

Yun Xie didn"t like people coveting her woman, he only coldly replied: "It"s just a superficial view of a woman."

Third Prince faintly smiled, and his eyes indistinctly fell on Wei Yuanwei"s body.

"Sacrifice for all, and pray for the peace of Eastern Chu."

The emperor and empress walked down the stage with wine in their hands. When the empress pa.s.sed by Wei Yuanwei, her body suddenly staggered and the wine in her hands sprinkled onto Wei Yuanwei"s dress.

Because the ceremonial dress was specially made by the palace, there was no spare dress for Wei Yuanwei to wear. He could only wear the wet dress to the side because she felt that the fragrance on his body was somewhat unique.

The empress held her forehead as she looked extremely delicate, "I"m afraid that chenqie won"t be able to accompany the emperor in completing this ceremony."

There was no change in the emperor"s expression. He only calmly instructed the palace maids to help the empress into the palace.

Apart from this small episode, the priest had been holding his own ceremony, as if everything was going smoothly.

The last thing to happen in the Grand Rites is to take charge of Qin Wentian and beg him to take care of everything in the coming years.

Heavenly Master Wu walked to the altar, holding her peach wood sword, she jumped up and down while muttering some words.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew and the sky suddenly changed. A snowstorm came calling out.

Fear appeared on everyone"s face. Some time had pa.s.sed since the start of winter, and snow started to float out of the sky. The snow got bigger and bigger, and in the end, it became heavy snow that fell down.

Wei Yuanwei only pursed his lips. This year"s cold had come a little earlier, and the snow at the end of autumn was understandable, but in the eyes of the ancients, it was seen as a strange sight.

Heavenly Master Wu suddenly knelt to the ground with a thump. He kowtowed and said, "Your majesty, there is an abnormality in the sky.
