Chapter 424 - 424 419 Brothers United
?Chapter 424: Chapter 419 Brothers United Chapter 424: Chapter 419 Brothers United The Emperor was delighted to hear this and approved the Second Prince’s request. The Second Prince had set off to the Sacrificial Palace before the palace gates were locked today.
Nines Prince got the news only after he had left.
Blood sacrifice, a scary-sounding ritual where one cuts their wrist with a knife during a sacrifice, drops a bit of blood into a wine bowl, and then pours the wine into the ground, symbolizing an offering to the god of heavens.
Ninth Prince was also aware of Master Wu Zhi’s prophecy, ‘Snow quickly ends as the year ends, clears as the month ends’, and suspected whether the Second Prince knew the exact time when the snow would stop. He immediately went to request the Emperor, expressing his regret for the people’s suffering and the Emperor’s hard work, and wished to conduct the blood sacrifice alongside Second Prince. After permission was granted, he hurriedly followed to the Sacrificial palace.
The reason why the Second Prince planned the time so tightly was definitely to prevent other princes from imitating him. If the other princes learned about the news tomorrow morning and went there, they wouldn’t be able to abstain for three days, and thus wouldn’t be able to participate in the sacrifice on New Year’s eve.
In the end, Marquis Chu said, “There’s no benefit the Second Prince won’t get up early for, this time he even wants to perform a blood sacrifice. Why would he do this? Does Master Wu Zhi’s prophecy in the brocade bag truly predict that the heavy snow will stop on New Year’s eve? Whether it will stop or not, Ninth Royal Highness’s choice to perform the sacrifice is definitely the correct one. Even if it doesn’t stop, they’ve put their effort in. If it does stop, their merit will be great. However, even if the Ninth Royal Highness goes, they are already at a disadvantage compared to the Second Prince.”
