Chapter 403 Mom, aren’t you happy?
When it was time for lunch, Si Xieyue went to the side hall in person and had lunch with Mu Wanxi and the others.
Both Mu Yuan and Qian Mian were very clever and chose not to have lunch with Si Xie Yue and Mu Wan Xi, but chose to eat in the back garden.
So, in the huge side hall, only Mu Wanxi, Si Xieyue and three little boys were left.
Sitting at the dinner table, Mu Wanxi seemed to be in a dazed mood, as if he had something on his mind.
"Mother, are you unhappy?" Mu Xiaomin, who was sitting next to Mu Wanxi, tugged on Mu Wanxi's sleeve and asked in a low voice.
Mu Wanxi quickly sat up straight with a smile on his face: "No, mother is in a good mood."
How could she be in a bad mood.
It’s not worth it to be in a bad mood just because of that bastard Helian Chiyue.
Mu Xiaoye, Mu Xiaoqi and Mu Xiaomin all looked at Mu Wanxi worriedly.
Even if Mu Wanxi actively denied it, they could see that their mother-in-law was indeed unhappy.
I don’t know why Mu Wanxi is unhappy. Mu Wanxi obviously doesn’t want to say anything, and it’s hard for the three bastards to ask any more questions.
Si Xieyue, who was sitting opposite Mu Wanxi, also noticed Mu Wanxi's unhappiness, and her eyes tightened.
"Try this." Si Xieyue picked up a piece of fish and placed it on the plate in front of Mu Wanxi.
"Thank you, Emperor." Mu Wanxi's attitude towards Si Xieyue can only be described as indifferent and polite.
"Xixi, please accompany me tonight to light the fire to worship the moon." Si Xieyue said slowly.
After hearing this, Mu Wanxi frowned and looked at Si Xieyue: "Emperor, this is against the rules."
She has been in this world for so long and has seen a lot about this world. After reading the books, my understanding of this world is much deeper than before, and I also learned more about the customs of the Flowing Fire Country.
The Moon Sacrifice Ceremony is very important to the people of the Flowing Fire Nation. It is the biggest annual celebration of the Flowing Fire Nation and is celebrated by the whole world.
In the moon worship ceremony, there is a very important link, that is, the emperor and empress personally light the fire to worship the moon, which symbolizes praying for the blessing of the moon god to make the world prosperous. The moon symbolizes purity and supreme power in the Fire Country.
However, in the historical records of the Flowing Fire Kingdom, there has never been a precedent for a woman who was not an empress to light the moon sacrifice fire together with the emperor.
Mu Wanxi has not yet been formally canonized, and cannot be called the empress of the Flowing Fire Kingdom.
Then, Si Xieyue asked her to accompany him to light the moon sacrifice fire, which was a clear violation of the ancestral rules.
“I said that I would let you come with us, so no one dared to object.” A craziest smile appeared on Si Xieyue’s thin lips, “Not only that, this time I also plan to worship the moon. The selection of the crown prince was announced in the main hall.”
With that said, Si Xieyue looked at Mu Xiaomin.
"Xiao Min is talented and smart, and he is our eldest son. He must be the crown prince."
After these words fell, Mu Wanxi could only look at Si with incredulous eyes. Xieyue said: "Emperor, don't joke with me."
Is Sixieyue crazy?
Xiao Min is not his biological son, so he actually wants to make Xiao Min the crown prince?
"Do I look like I'm joking?" Si Xieyue asked.
“But I don’t want to be the prince.” Mu Xiaomin raised his hand and said weakly.
He has no interest in imperial power.
Si Xieyue took a deep look at Mu Xiaomin and said, "Being the prince can protect your mother and your brothers. You should think carefully before speaking."
Mu Xiaomin immediately fell silent,
Yes.
Right is a sharp blade that can protect the people you care about. This is true.
