Rite of Three Kneels and Nine Bows
Biên tập viên: Henyee Translations
It was nearing noon.
Both sides of Changle Boulevard was packed with people.
A crowd of thrill-seeking onlookers were already sitting in restaurants and teahouses. They were all talking excitedly about a certain grand event.
It was a big event that no one in the capital didn't know about!
"…Chit-chat…"
"Chatter…"
Everyone's voices got jumbled together, weaving into a chaotic musical movement.
"They're coming, they're coming!"
"Ah, where is the procession now?"
"Hey, don't push, what are you squeezing for?"
"Even if you keep squeezing you won't get to the front!"
Fang Su and his Greenwood Guards directed the imperial guard to go where the crowds were congregating and corral them to the sides. They shouted, "All of you stop pushing!"
"Maintain order!"
"I see them coming!" This person's shout promptly set off the crowd. Everyone craned their necks to look at the boulevard.
