Chapter 394: The Social Terror Princess and Her Secret Guards 18
*
Yun Wu felt that she had become very courageous these days, and her previous fear of outsiders seemed to be gone.
But this time I heard that I was going to the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, and I was still scared and uneasy.
At this time, Yun Wu was being carried on Rong Jin's back, returning to Changle Palace unhurriedly.
After winter, she wore extra thick clothes, but Sister Ajin still carried her easily.
Yun Wu felt much more at ease as she lay on Rong Jin's shoulder. She felt that she was a little too dependent on A Jin...
She felt that Sister Ajin sometimes didn't look like a woman, but she was very close to her. She didn't know why, but she always felt that Ajin would be happy when she was around.
"Ah Wu, don't worry. I will always be behind Ah Wu, so there is no need to be afraid of crowded places."
Rong Jin's voice was gentle, and he walked smoothly into the gate of Changle Palace with her on his back.
Yun Wu's arms around his neck tightened a little more, and she whispered in her voice:
"I'm too timid. Will I really live up to my father's expectations..."
"Your Majesty hopes that Ah Wu can get used to such a big scene. Ah Wu is a princess and will have to experience many things in the future. Now she must learn to face everyone calmly."
Rong Jin said, the silent night matched his deliberately soft voice very well.
Rong Jin did not tell Yun Wu that the emperor intended to train her to be the crown prince, because this would put more pressure on Yun Wu.
He felt that Ah Wu did not need to bear such pressure. She only needed to move forward slowly. The first step was to get used to big scenes with many people.
"Besides, if Ah Wu can successfully carry out the heaven-sacrifice ceremony, she will be the most daring person among them all."
"really?"
Yun Wu blinked and turned her head to ask, and then saw Rong Jin nodding seriously.
She thought for a while, then shook her little feet wearing embroidered shoes, and raised a hand to cheer herself up.
"Okay, isn't it just a small heaven-sacrifice ceremony? This princess is not a coward, and she will definitely complete it well."
There was a faint smile on the corner of Rong Jin's lips, and then she continued to walk to the dormitory with Yun Wu on her back.

The Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony was a major event in the court, and was organized by Prince Jin and General Lu, who had just returned to Beijing from the border.
If the officials' children want to attend the ceremony and attend the ceremony dinner, that is also possible.
This year, for the first time, the princess went on behalf of the emperor, so many people from the family also went.
Xiao Che, Lu Ziqi and Lu Ziyao will definitely go, as well as Jiang Tang and some noble ladies from aristocratic families. Lin Dongshuang and Lin Qiuyi from Shangshu Mansion will also go with their father, Mr. Lin.
Hanshan, where the heaven-sacrifice ceremony is held, is not far from the capital, just on the outskirts of the capital.
A sacrificial platform has already been set up on the top of the mountain, and twelve court officials headed by Prince Jin stood on both sides under the high steps.
Behind the officials were Xiao Che, Lu Ziqi and others. A little further away, where they were blocked by the imperial guards, there were still people surrounding them. A large group of people stood there.
Lin Qiuyi stood in the crowd with a look of impatience in her eyes.
Her sister-in-law Lin Dongshuang stood in front of her, and she came here today because of the original plot.
In the original plot, at the dinner party after the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, she ran into a drunk Xiao Che in the Hanshan Villa.
Xiao Che already had a crush on her, but he almost caused a disaster when he was drunk, and was woken up by Lin Qiuyi pouring a bowl of water on her.
Xiao Che was very ashamed. Under pressure from his father to marry the princess, he actually asked Lin Qiuyi if she would marry him.
In the original plot, Lin Qiuyi agreed, and it was only after marriage that the two slowly fell in love with each other.
Lin Qiuyi narrowed her eyes and looked at Xiao Che, who was standing not far in front. Her eyes were filled with love. She would soon become the crown prince's concubine.
When the time comes, her father, mistress, or sister-in-law will all fawn over her.
"It's time!"
The eunuch standing on the steps shouted loudly. Rong Jin stood in the corner and watched Yun Wu walk up the steps step by step.
She was wearing extremely luxurious clothes, with bright yellow embroidery and bright red embroidery.
Bright yellow has always been used only by the emperor, but this dress was made by the emperor himself, which seemed to show the world's love and attention to this princess.
Lu Ziqi looked up at Yun Wu's back as she walked up the steps calmly. Inexplicably, she felt a sense of pride that her daughter was in her prime?
Yun Wu walked very steadily because Rong Jin taught her when she was in the palace.
When Yun Wu stood on the rooftop and took the three sticks of incense and turned around, she saw the thick crowd at the foot of the steps and not far away.
Rong Jin said that she could just regard those people below as pig's trotters.
Yun Wu obediently thought as he said, one root, two thorns, three thorns... all underneath were pig's trotters, so she really didn't feel nervous at all.
Just a little hungry...
Yun Wu wore heavy hair accessories and a solemn and serious look on her fair and delicate face.
She leaned down and placed three sticks of incense on the altar according to the ritual process.
There seems to be a dinner party tonight. It would be better for her to eat some pig trotters...
As the bell rang not far away, the ceremony finally came to an end. Yun Wu felt that her stature was being shortened by the heavy hair accessories.
Yun Wu walked down the steps, and the envoys following her were Xiao Che and Lu Ziqi.
As Xiao Che got closer, he could see Yun Wu clearly today. She was more beautiful than a beautiful woman when she wore makeup, and her luxurious hair accessories and uniforms did not make her look old-fashioned at all, but made her feel even more unattainable.
Xiao Che couldn't help but take a few more glances, but he was afraid of being discovered by her, so he quickly looked away in embarrassment.
He feels very complicated now because King Jin told him about tonight's plan last night.
The King of Jin said that after this ceremony, it was certain that His Majesty would make the princess his crown prince.
But he tried many times on the emperor's side, and the emperor did not relent in agreeing to Xiao Che's marriage to the princess.
Prince Jin was a little anxious. He was going to secretly order someone to do some tricks tonight. As long as Xiao Che and the princess had physical contact, he would not be afraid that the princess would not marry Xiao Che...

At nightfall, the courtiers and their families who came from the huge Hanshan Villa were all having a dinner in the main hall.
And Yun Wu was changing out of heavy Chinese clothes in a separate courtyard room.
Rong Jin wiped Yun Wu's face with a warm wet handkerchief, and had already taken off the hairpins on her head.
"Ajin, did you see me going up today? I didn't make any mistakes at all. I walked very safely."
Yun Wu said in a show-off manner, her cheeks were white and clean after washing off her makeup.
"Well, all the slaves have seen it. The princess is the bravest woman in the world."
Rong Jin said softly. Although it was an exaggerated compliment, Yun Wu was obviously very useful.
After wiping his face, a maid from another courtyard brought dinner and a glass of wine.
"This is Hanshan's unique sweet wine brewed from fruit. Please try it, princess."
The maid smiled and brought the food and wine cups to the table.
"You go back."
Rong Jin said, the maid's face was stunned, then she bowed slowly and left.
He frowned slightly as he watched the maid go out and close the door.
Rong Jin turned around and saw Yun Wu holding the wine cup and pressing it to her pink lips. She was about to take a sip when she was suddenly stopped by Rong Jin.
"Although this is the Royal Courtyard, you have to be careful."
