When the Jia family members finished congratulations and returned from the palace with a banquet, the time had already come.

But even though everyone returned from the palace, they did not return to their respective residences, but came directly to Ningguo Mansion.

Because the Jia family's New Year's Eve ancestor worship is just about to begin.

Jia Jing and Jia She and others rode horses faster on the road, so they were the first to return to Ning Mansion.

The few people first dismounted in front of the Ningguo Mansion, then came in through the main gate, passed the main courtyard, passed the Yimen and the hall, and finally went straight to the main hall behind the inner Yimen.

Along the way, all the main gates of Ning Mansion were frozen, and under the steps on both sides of the main road were all tall vermilion red candles. The candlelight shook, making the entire Ning Mansion shine brightly.

Everyone looked from a distance and felt as if two golden dragons were lying on both sides of the road.

Jia Jing and his friends waited for a while, and the sedan chairs of the four Mu Jia, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang and Youshi arrived.

The four of them got out of the sedan chair at the warmer hall, and Jia Mu led the three of them to the inner room for a short rest.

After all, a few people set out from home early in the morning and kept making trouble until this point before returning from the palace. They were already exhausted, and in addition, Jia Mu was not young anymore, so of course she needed a rest.

At this time, many tribe members of the Jia family had already finished queuing outside Yimen, waiting for the sacrifice to begin.

The major events of the country are in sacrifice and military affairs.

Now it is the grand ceremony of the Jia family's ancestral temple on New Year's Eve. Even Jia Jing, who was "focused on practicing Taoism" outside the city, also came from Xuanzhen Temple to preside over the sacrifices of the Jia family.

In the inner room, Jia Mu, who had a short rest, asked, "Are everyone outside here?"

"Old lady, everyone is all!" Jia Rong stepped forward and responded.

"That's good."

As she said that, Jia Mu looked at Jia Jing and Jia Jing on the side, "Then let's go to the ancestral hall together!"

Jia Jing and others all responded respectfully to "yes", and then went to the ancestral temple east of Ning Mansion with Jia Mu.

...

At the black oil fence at the entrance of the ancestral hall, two rows of servants were already greeting everyone respectfully.

From the gate of the ancestral hall, everyone entered one after another, followed the white stone corridor and entered the ancestral hall.

As the twilight moment comes, the green pines and cypresses on both sides of the way are illuminated by candlelight, and the servants standing silently around them seem to be extremely solemn in the ancestral hall at this moment.

Going further forward, I saw a group of bronze sacrificial vessels tied with red ropes on the platform, and blue smoke rose from the incense burner.

In front of the Huxia behind, a golden plaque of nine dragons was polished to a shiny light. The four golden characters "Star Hui Fu Bi" written by the emperor above were shining brightly under the candlelight.

Everyone entered the ancestral hall, and immediately divided Zhaomu according to the seniority, and then set up their own squads, and the continuous team even lined up on the platform outside the Baoxia.

Finally, from the outside, you can only see the bright lights and embroidered curtains inside. Although there are many god-master spirit cards listed by the ancestors of the Jia family, they are all in a daze and unable to see them in detail.

The ancestral hall was accompanied by Jia Jing, Jia She and Jia Jing. Under them were Jia Zhen offering titles, Jia Lian offering silk, Baoyu holding incense, Jia Chang and Jia Ling offering worship mats, and guarding the burning pond.

Amid the music of the green-clothed music beside them, everyone first offered their titles and worshipped them, and then burned silk books to celebrate the wine.

In this way, the sacrifice was finally over.

...

Afterwards, the male members withdrew from the ancestral hall, and Mother Jia led a group of female relatives into the main hall before the true images of the ancestors.

Located in the middle is the portrait of the two ancestors of Ning Rong, all of whom were dressed in python clothes and jade belts.

On both sides of the ancestors' images, there are brocade tents hanging high, color screens are guarded, and the candles are bright and the smoke is curling...

In addition to Jia Rong, the male members of the Jia family were all standing in sequence under the main hall corridor. Because Jia Rong was the eldest grandson of the Jia family, he could only wait for the service in the main hall with the female family.

Near the threshold of the main hall, there are Jia Jing, Jia She, Jia Jing and others, and within the threshold are the female family members of the Jia family.

Whenever dishes came from outside, they were transmitted from outside to Jia Jing, who was outside the threshold for the first time.

Then, Jia Jing came over with the food, first passed the food to Jia Rong, then Jia Rong passed it to his wife Qin, and then uploaded it to Jia Mu in turn, and Jia Mu placed it on the altar.

Until the food, soup and wine and tea were all passed on, Jia Rong left the main hall and stood in the queue outside.

Then, everyone bowed as Jia Mu took incense, and they knelt down and kowtowed without mentioning it.

For a moment, the sound of the swaying golden bells and jade pendants swaying slightly in the entire ancestral hall, and the sound of the boots and shoes being kneeling.

The prosperity of the Jia family is obvious.

…………

After the ancestor worship was completed, the distant tribe members returned, and the people from the three palaces gathered in Jia Mu's Rongqing Hall and made a special trip to Jia Mu's New Year.

Grandmother Jia sat upright on the low and low-level building in Rongqing Hall, and everyone came to kowtow to Grandmother Jia one by one according to their seniority. Grandmother Jia also smiled and sent his purses to the juniors of the Jia family who came to pay homage.

This is New Year’s money!

After the ceremony, everyone returned to their homes.

Before leaving, Jia Mu told Jia Zhen again, "I've sent someone to watch the incense at night, but don't be careless!"

Jia Zhen nodded quickly and agreed.

...

After Jia Jing finished everything, he returned to the mansion. It was already the beginning of Hai.

The Hou's Mansion, Amber and Lai Fu had already summoned the servants and were waiting in line in the yard in front of the main hall.

After Jia Jing returned to the mansion, he went directly to the top of the main hall to sit down.

Afterwards, under Jia Jing's instructions, Lai Fu Humber and his friends led a group of servants from the Marquis' Mansion to pay homage.

Jia Jing also distributed the gold, silver and crusts, New Year's purse, rice, grain, meat and other items that had been prepared one by one.

Amid the sound of gold and silver croaking in the tea tray, the sound of thanking and rewarding from the servants was endless. For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire marquis' mansion immediately became lively.

Afterwards, Jia Jing ordered a banquet to hold a banquet for the servants in the mansion to eat, drink and celebrate.

The Hou’s Mansion has become even more lively!

The trouble was not until midnight, and as it was about to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, the crowd in the Hou Mansion temporarily stopped making fun.

At the middle of the hour, on Ningrong Street, fireworks and firecrackers soared into the sky, gathering among the many fireworks above Shenjing, leaving a fleeting brilliance in the sky.

All night, this divine capital was filled with people everywhere, laughter and noise and the sound of firecrackers and fireworks were endless...

And in such a bustle, the seventh year of Hongde has arrived!

...

In the early morning of the next day, it was just the fifth o'clock in the morning. Jia Mu and other edicts had already finished their makeup according to their qualities, and they had a full set of deacons to come to the palace to celebrate the New Year.

Jia Jing also wore New Year's court ward early in the morning. Before dawn, he stood in front of the palace gate, and quietly waited for the beginning of the official ceremony with other civil and military officials.

It’s another year of celebration, and the order and customs are the same as in previous years...

In short, it was only after more than half a day of busy work that the congratulations on the first day of the first lunar month came to an end.

...

It is worth mentioning that after the court congratulations, Emperor Hongde summoned a group of civil and military ministers in the Yangxin Hall and decided to send troops to the north after the Qingming Festival.

This time, the general was Qiu Lu, Duke of Qi. Afterwards, Emperor Hongde sent four Wuhous, including Wang Ming, Marquis of Wucheng, Huo Yu, Marquis of Tong'an, Wang Zhong, Marquis of Jing'an, and Li Yuan, Marquis of Anping.

As for Jia Jing, because he had already reported his marriage date to the Ministry of Rites for filing, Emperor Hongde and his ministers deliberately ignored it...
