The 19th of June was the birthday of Guanyin.
At the same time, the national priest and the Imperial Observatory, after meticulous selection, also chose this day to conduct the royal Sacrifice to Heaven Ceremony.
It was a very grand and significant event.
The Empress Dowager issued a decree to Xiao'er, instructing her to participate in the ceremony as the future consort of the Sixth Prince.
Although Shangguan Xuanyi did not know what the purpose of the Empress Dowager's decree was, participation in the ceremony as the future consort of the Sixth Prince meant that, on the day of the Sacrifice to Heaven Ceremony, that girl would be standing next to him.
Shangguan Xuanyi was very pleased with this.
In addition, the Empress Dowager had already selected a consort for the First Prince.
She was Ruan Weizhen, the eldest daughter of the Shuntian Mansion's Fu Yin. She, too, would be attending the ceremony in the role of the future consort of the First Prince.
