At the same time, at the heaven-sacrifice ceremony, Si Shaoqing was dressed in a python robe and sat in front of the gods and Buddhas. His face seemed to be smiling but not smiling. He didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.

The little eunuch on the side stepped forward and gently reminded: "Your Highness, the auspicious time is coming, we should also think about going out."

There was not much expression on Si Shaoqing's face, as if he was immersed in a temple full of gods and Buddhas.

"Is the eldest lady of Muhou Mansion here?" Si Shaoqing put down the Buddhist beads in his hand and spoke calmly.

The little eunuch immediately showed a troubled look on his face.

"It's strange to say that today is the day when Miss Mu Da is most proud, but I didn't expect that she didn't come."

There was no sign of anger on Si Shaoqing's face, but he was helped up by the young eunuch and walked out of the temple door.

The walkway outside the temple gate has been covered with red carpet, Sanskrit music is everywhere, and colorful silks are everywhere.

Si Shaoqing held the ring in his hand and walked step by step on the way to the altar.

The people around him were all sighing.

"The python robe on the prince's body was indeed made by the eldest lady of the Muhou Mansion."

"Yes, I didn't expect that with so many red and pink rouges in Luyang City, His Highness the Prince would actually choose that Demon King."

"Shhh, please keep your voices down. After this incident, I don't know what kind of career the eldest lady of Muhou Mansion will have in the future."

After Si Shaoqing heard these words, his smile faded and he walked to the altar.

That man has a cautious character and is so shrewd. But if he doesn't come today, he lacks some courage. He just wants to survive, so he can't take on a big responsibility.

Si Shaoqing held the fragrance in his hand, but he was thinking about whether this chess piece was feasible or not.

At that time, Mu Qiaoxi hurriedly broke into the gate of Ganye Temple. It was cold wind all the way, but Mu Qiaoxi's face was flushed because of the high fever.

She was bewildered and looked at the altar amid the adulation from everyone.

It's over, it's too late.

The alms bowl in Master Kunai's hand contained the talismanic water. His hand was already soaked in it. As he watched, he lifted it up and sprinkled it heavily on the body of the python robe.

The python seemed to be even more alive under such a mysterious and sacred ceremony.

But only Mu Qiaoxi knew that if only one more moment passed, the python would immediately become completely different and make Si Shaoqing lose his face.

Mu Qiaoxi couldn't even imagine what the ending of this book would be like because of her tampering if the whole family was copied and executed.

Her head was in a mess, and she had no idea what she had done.

I was in a hurry today. What Mu Qiaoxi was wearing was the cape of all beasts. When Mu Zhen was hunting, he collected the fine furs of thirty red foxes to make such a cape.

The beasts are embellished with gold and silver threads, and the maple red cloak is warm and eye-catching.

However, with a quick step from Mu Qiaoxi, this cloak was firmly draped on Si Shaoqing's shoulders.

For a moment, Si Shaoqing was stunned, Mu Qiaoxi was stunned, the bowl in Kunai's hand also paused, and the surrounding noise became silent for an instant.

Only the sound of Buddha and the name of Buddha in the distance are still echoing continuously.

After Mu Qiaoxi's eyes became clear, three words were echoing in her mind.

Dead...Dead...Dead...

She retracted her hand as if she had touched live coals, but the cape of all beasts was still hanging on Si Shaoqing's body impartially.

People around her were also awakened by her actions.

There was an uproar.

"It's over, this is a ceremony to worship heaven!"

"Is Mu Qiaoxi crazy?!"

"She is dead!"

In whispers, Mu Qiaoxi realized what she had done!

This is a grand ceremony for worshiping heaven! Is she out of her mind?

The surrounding imperial guards seemed to be shocked by her actions. They came to their senses during these chattering discussions and rushed forward to capture Mu Qiaoxi.

The eyes of others also changed from envy and jealousy to disbelief and gloating.

"Get back, everyone!"

Si Shaoqing frowned and scolded all the imperial guards who wanted to come forward.

After all, not everyone can step on the red carpet of the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony. It’s not enough to have Mu Qiaoxi, why don’t everyone have to come up once?

Si Shaoqing's face was stern, and all the imperial guards lowered their heads and retreated to the back, not daring to look at the actions on the altar.

On the altar, only Mu Qiaoxi and Si Shaoqing were left, as well as Master Kunai standing behind with a confused expression.

Si Shaoqing looked at Mu Qiaoxi who looked embarrassed, and his tone was somewhat teasing.

"Miss Mu Da, I originally thought that you wouldn't come today, but I didn't expect that you would give such a big gift as soon as you came..."

There was something in Si Shaoqing's words, and Mu Qiaoxi's face almost turned to shame when she heard it.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince...my maid, my lord, this is..." Is it considered a escort?

If he didn't come up, wouldn't Si Shaoqing become today's joke?

Mu Qiaoxi racked her brains and thought about what kind of excuse she could find to convince Si Shaoqing, or everyone else, but now it seemed that she couldn't even convince herself!

Si Shaoqing, on the other hand, looked at Mu Qiaoxi's slightly wonderful expression change and thought funny in his heart.

Just now, I thought this person was timid, but now it seems that he is too timid...

"No matter who you are, I think, Miss Mu, you should go down first, okay?" Si Shaoqing glanced at Mu Qiaoxi's feet, who were stepping on the red carpet where he was offering sacrifices to heaven.

Mu Qiaoxi hurriedly ran to the side as if she had stepped on live coals.

Si Shaoqing also took off his beast cloak directly to the ground.

Only then did Mu Qiaoxi see clearly. The python on the python robe was lifelike and had not changed at all. The cold light of the peacock feathers was even more dazzling under the refraction of the sun.

"?"

Mu Qiaoxi's whole face now has a big question mark, no way, no way? Why hasn't there been any change at all?

Doesn't it mean that when the talisman water touches the Luo Lu line, it will melt directly?

Suddenly, a strange thought popped up in Mu Qiaoxi's head.

The python robe has either Luo Lu thread or peacock feather thread!

Thinking of this, the corners of Mu Qiaoxi's mouth twitched slightly, and her whole body was wrapped in the embarrassment of social death.

It's so embarrassing, so embarrassing!

She just threw herself in front of Si Shaoqing with such "enthusiastic and lively" manner. Even if she was impulsive, she had already planned to kneel on the ground to plead guilty. She said that the peacock feather line had been changed by an adulterer, and she was worried that His Highness the Crown Prince would make a fool of himself.

But now? Now?

Mu Qiaoxi didn't know what else she could worry about to maintain her image of a loyal minister.

Are you worried that His Royal Highness will be too cold in autumn? So you went up and put on a cloak?

Her thoughts were confused, but Master Kunai on the side spoke.

"This is a grand ceremony for worshiping heaven. Miss Mu is too ignorant of the rules. She disrupts the memorial ceremony and delays the auspicious time. What crime should she do? Someone, please take Miss Mu down and wait for her to be punished."

Master Kunai is compassionate and has thunderous means.

The imperial guards did not dare to take action, so the monks in the temple stepped forward one after another and took Mu Qiaoxi away.

Mu Qiaoxi was thrown heavily into the woodshed of Ganye Temple.

Before leaving, a monk reminded him coldly, "You have committed a heinous crime. Just wait here for your death warrant tomorrow morning!"
