Rebirth of the Merchant Girl

Chapter 99
The scorching teardrops fell on her body, scorching hot, but it made Xie Yanniang feel warm in her heart.

There is nothing more touching than having someone with you before you die, and being willing to cry for her...

Xie Yanniang woke up to the sound of the bell, the white wolf tilted his head to look at it, and suddenly leaned over and licked Xie Yanniang's cheek, and she realized that the corners of her eyes were still stained with tears.

Was she sad because she died alone in her previous life, or was she moved by that man's tears?
Rubbing Bi'er as if to comfort herself, no matter what, the past is always in the past, what else do you want to do?
After washing her face indiscriminately, Xie Yanniang listened to the ringing of the bell, knowing that the ritual was about to begin.

Like her, many people are probably guessing who Ruan Jingxin will choose to replace the old host.

Long Zhiyu even hid behind the crowd, waiting to see the regent's joke.

Xie Yanniang tidied up and brushed the white wolf's fur. Bi'er narrowed her green eyes comfortably, and rubbed her neck affectionately rarely.

It was fluffy and itchy, and she couldn't help laughing.

Leading the white wolf out of the courtyard, Xie Yanniang went straight to the high tower of Lingfa Temple. Pang Yudi was already waiting at the gate of the courtyard, his face full of impatience: "It's so slow, the ceremony is about to begin."

She hurriedly followed behind Pang Yudi, her face couldn't help worrying.

The closer she got to the tower, the more anxious Xie Yanniang felt.

When they arrived at the foot of the tower, there were already many ministers in white brocade robes waiting.

Above the tower, it was still empty, without a single person.

The ministers gathered together in twos and threes, whispering, Xie Yanniang vaguely saw their lips, it was nothing more than saying that the regent did not discuss with everyone last night to replace the old presiding person, now that the monks are all in their positions, it would be a bit awkward to choose one of them to replace them late.

Suddenly there was silence around, and she couldn't help raising her head with everyone.

The dazzling light made Xie Yanniang squint her eyes, barely seeing a figure against the light slowly climbing up the tower.

It's not the monk's golden-red cassock, but a moon-white robe. You can vaguely see the gold thread embroidery on the hem of the robe, which is a white lotus in full bloom.

With a jade crown and black hair, and a tall figure, this robe is not feminine at all, but has an unspeakable elegance and purity.

The silver mask covered half of the face. The visitor stood still on the high platform, raised his arms, and his wide sleeves were raised in the wind.

The ministers were shocked, and they knelt down and knelt down one by one.

Long Zhiyu's face was a little ugly, but he still didn't show any dissatisfaction.

Xie Yanniang stood in a daze, unexpectedly Ruan Jingxin would preside over this sacrificial ceremony in person.

Pang Yudi couldn't bear to see, so he tugged at her sleeve roughly.

Only then did Xie Yanniang panickedly follow the crowd to kneel down, her forehead pressed against the cold ground, and the voice of Ruan Jingxin reciting the sacrificial oration was next to her ears.

Majestic and heavy, it makes people feel sorry for the dead soldiers, and gradually become enthralled with blood, wishing to kill the enemy immediately and avenge their revenge.

The voice gradually decreased, Ruan Jingxin put away the sacrificial oration scroll in his hand, and threw it into the brazier of the tower.

The raging fire quickly engulfed the scroll.

As if to use this to pass on the determination to the dead soldiers.

The soft firelight shone on Ruan Jingxin's face, seeming to add a bit of warmth.

Xie Yanniang stared blankly, the cool wind blew, his clothes fluttered, standing alone on the high tower, showing a bit of loneliness.

It's so cold at the top, is this man not as attached to the high and powerful Regent as everyone imagined?
