Chapter 929: Good Brother, Take Me to the Sacrificial Ceremony
Sometimes, Gu Bailu thought that even if Feng Qingtian cared more about the baby than her, she wouldn’t blame him if he abandoned her.
In the blink of an eye, it was the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, and the day that sacrifices were offered to the gods.
The imperial palace of Rising Clouds Empire was bustling this year, and it was also the day of the royal ceremony. The palace was already busy before dawn.
Initially, the emperor would take all the officials to offer sacrifices.
However, there were at least a dozen guests in the palace that couldn’t be offended.
Therefore, he had no choice but to invite them along.
In ancient times, no woman could participate in this ceremony.
Gu Bailu didn’t care about that. She had been a god before, and she was pregnant with a ruler; rather than worshipping, she should receive worship.
But Bu Yaolian was different. Because of her low spiritual power, she had never attended such a grand festival.
It was especially lively this year.
She loved when it was lively. Apart from accompanying Su Shenfan in bed every day, she had no other entertainment.
She wanted to take a peek at the show.
During their morning bout, she hooked her legs around Su Shenfan’s waist and begged him. “Good brother… just take me to watch the show. I’ve never participated in a sacrificial ceremony before.”
Su Shenfan slapped her butt. “What’s there to see? They’re all rough men.”
There wouldn’t be any entertainment, dancing, or painting, let alone a poetry recital. What was the point of going?
“Aren’t they going to offer sacrifices to the gods? I heard that it’ll be a competition for the heavens to see who has the highest spiritual power. It’ll definitely be fun.”
She wrapped her arms around his neck and said coquettishly, “Good brother, take me with you, ah…”
With one move, Su Shenfan sent her into the clouds. “You’re still in the mood to remember the ceremony? Looks like I’m not working hard enough.”
“Good brother, be gentler. It’s too deep…” Bu Yaolian was enraptured. She didn’t have a chance to beg for mercy.
“No… no…”
After Su Shen was satisfied, he hugged her and kissed her on the lips. “I can take you, but you can’t look around carelessly. Follow me. If you look around, I’ll gouge your eyes out.”
Bu Yaolian was so tired that she almost collapsed, but when she heard him agree, she jumped up in excitement. “I’ll go pick some clothes.”
Su Shenfan pulled her down. “Sleep for a while. Don’t be so excited, it’s just a sacrificial ceremony. Why do you have to be so beautiful? Do you want to become a sacrifice for the heavenly immortals?”
Bu Yaolian frowned. “No way. Do the heavenly immortals like beauties?”
“Someone as stupid as you would be the perfect sacrifice. You won’t even be enough to fill the gap between their teeth.” Su Shenfan looked at her foolish appearance in disdain.
“I’m not a three-year-old. Shao Zun, you don’t have to scare me like that. Immortals aren’t demons.” Bu Yaolian wasn’t fooled by him.
“You know that you’re not three years old, yet you’re still begging to watch the show. That’s something only little kids do.”
“I’m still a child, after all. Today’s the New Year. My grandfather says that this is the new year for kids. He usually gives me lots of candy and money.”
Bu Yaolian lay in Su Shenfan’s arms and played with his nipples. She enjoyed watching them become erect.
