As the sun went down, there was music resounding in the Temple of Heaven.

At this time, in front of all the ministers in the hall, there was already a table. The ministers sat cross-legged, and there were melons and fruit snacks on the table. On the middle ground, eighteen men in armor were performing arts.

The armors on their bodies are not Daqin armors, but costumes for performances, but they are majestic and majestic when worn on their bodies. The movements of the eighteen men are coordinated, and every movement is clean and neat, full of the fortitude and decisiveness of soldiers the wind.

This is the shocking style of performing military music.

Although I watched the performance for an afternoon, none of the people in the room looked tired, and even the queen didn't seem to be tired in the slightest because of the long time.

Those who can enter the palace to perform are all carefully selected art troupes, and all of them present their special skills. For this birthday ceremony, of course, all the art troupes have carefully prepared and used all their strengths. Solving the numbers, every skill presented is really wonderful, making it hard to feel tired.

Everyone knows that after the shock of the Koufeng, it will be the final grand finale of the Peacock Terrace, where the Jinling Sparrow, known as the concubine of the country, will present the Peacock Flowing Cloud.

The officials present watched Zhen Koufeng's performance, whispering to each other, smiling, and commenting in a low voice, while Chi Liandian sat upright, without squinting, still in the posture of a soldier.

The emperor sat on the chair, stroked his long beard, and waited until the Zhen Kou Feng performance was completed, the emperor smiled and said: "Sure enough, it is sonorous and exciting...!" Asked the queen: "Queen, what do you think?"

The Queen smiled lightly and said, "The Holy Majesty said yes, so it must be excellent."

"That's not necessarily true." The emperor smiled and said, "In my opinion, the empress might like the performance of Peacock Terrace even more...!" Xiang Zhen Koufeng led the team and said, "You have done a good job. I allow you to stay in the palace. Let's watch the Princess of the Kingdom's dance together!"

The officials were a little surprised when they heard the words, thinking that although the emperor is old, he still seems to love the wind of the battlefield. There are so many art troupes performing on stage, and many of the performances are exquisite. The emperor did not praise too much from the beginning to the end. But at this moment, Zhen Koufeng was left in the hall, and they were allowed to watch Peacock Flowing Clouds, which was a great favor.

The leader of Zhen Kou Feng immediately led people to thank him, and then retreated to the side under the leadership of the eunuch. The Heavenly Dao Hall is magnificent and spacious, and it is no problem to accommodate hundreds of people. There are more than a dozen people in Zhen Kou Feng, so there is no pressure .

Jinling sparrow's reputation was well known, and the sky had already darkened at this time. In the main hall, the Taoist priests surrounding the sanitation had already lit the palace lanterns under the instructions of Xuanzhen Daozong.

On the square outside the hall, hundreds of palace lanterns were also lit up at this moment, and the inside and outside of the Temple of Heaven were as bright as day.

"Xuanjinling Peacock Terrace enters the hall!" The eunuch in front of the hall received the order and shouted the order outside the hall. Soon, people in the square saw a gorgeous lotus flower platform slowly moving towards the Temple of Heaven. The stage was illuminated by the lights, and it was extremely exquisite. When many people saw the movement of the lotus stage, they first felt their eyes light up, and then someone wondered: "How can the stage move by itself?"

Then someone said: "Look clearly, there is someone under the table...!"

Everyone looked carefully, only to see clearly that a pair of legs under the lotus platform were walking slowly, and there were lotus flowers scattered around the lotus platform, so the person holding the lotus platform only showed half of his body, and he couldn't see it above his chest. .

The lotus platform is too exquisite and dazzling, so many people ignore for a while that there are people holding it below, and although the lotus platform does not look huge, it is not small either. At first glance, it is hard to imagine a person Can support such a lotus platform.

Soon, everyone's eyes were attracted by the scene behind the lotus platform. They saw the Jinling bird in peacock clothes, with a graceful figure, light steps, and curling colorful clothes, just like a colorful peacock.

Beside Jinlingque, there are two women on the left and one on the right. They are also stunningly dressed. One woman is dressed in cyan clothes, and the other woman is dressed in fiery red clothes. Their faces are covered with make-up, making it impossible to see clearly. Allow.

"Hey, that's Qingluan Huofeng!" Someone has already shouted.

In the myths and legends, Qingluan Huofeng is a divine bird second only to Phoenix. The blue color is Luan, and the red color is Phoenix.

Qingluan Huofeng follows the peacock, naturally it is extremely eye-catching.

Behind him, there is another strange bird dressed in feathers. Judging from the body shape, it is obviously a man, but the whole body is covered with black feathers, and the real face cannot be seen clearly.

When the group of five from the Peacock Terrace entered the main hall, the eyes of everyone in the hall were amazed, but Feng Yuanpo's eyes swept over Hei Yu, and then his eyes fell under the lotus platform, looking at the lotus platform. A smile flashed across the pair of legs wrapped in white feathers.

Walking past the beautiful pool in the palace, the lotus platform stopped, and the Jinling sparrow in peacock clothes had already stepped forward and saluted: "Jinling Peacock Terrace, pay homage to His Majesty the Emperor and the Empress!"

The emperor nodded slightly and didn't say much.

At this time, the head of the Department of Rites of Hexi suddenly came out and said: "The auspicious time has come to present the birthday noodles to the Holy Majesty. I invite the Holy Majesty to use the birthday noodles before watching the dance!"

Feng Yuanpo hurriedly said: "My lord, it's time to offer birthday noodles!"

The emperor nodded and smiled, "Today is my birthday, I still need this bowl of birthday noodles."

Feng Yuanpo turned his head to Yang Zhen and said, "Master Yang, don't let people present birthday noodles!"

Soon, I saw two palace servants appearing outside the hall, both carrying jade plates, and inside the jade plates were birthday noodles in golden bowls. Two Taoist priests had already received the birthday noodles, turned them into the hall, and went straight to the palace. His Majesty sent it over.

The two bowls of birthday noodles were naturally shared by the emperor and empress. Two Taoist priests went up to the hall and were about to present the birthday noodles when they heard a voice suddenly say: "Wait a minute!"

Everyone was startled, followed the sound and saw that it was Chi Liandian, Governor of Liaodong who spoke.

"What does Dianshuai mean?" Feng Yuanpo frowned slightly: "It's the auspicious time to offer birthday noodles, why did Dianshuai stop it? This is not an auspicious thing."

Chi Liandian said indifferently: "Governor Feng, is there no rule for the meal of the Holy Majesty? Could it be that the meals used by the Holy Majesty and the Empress before were all so sloppy?"

Feng Yuanpo frowned and said, "What does Dianshuai mean?"

Chi Liandian said indifferently: "As far as I know, the meal presented to the Holy Majesty must be inspected first to make sure it is safe before eating. But when I saw the birthday noodles were brought up, there was no inspection, so I uttered a voice to stop it." Turning to the emperor, he cupped his hands and said, "My lord, today's birthday ceremony is a grand event for the empire. Naturally, it is a time of celebration for the whole world. But because of this, we should be more careful."

At this moment, the two Taoist priests had presented the birthday noodles to the emperor and the empress, but the emperor didn't lift them up, looked at Chi Liandian, and said with a smile, "You mean, there is something wrong with the birthday noodles?"

Feng Yuanpo immediately knelt down on the ground and said loudly: "I ask the sage to issue an order to kill me in front of the hall!"

Everyone was startled, the emperor stroked his beard and said, "Why would Duke Zhong say that?"

"My Majesty, this time, every procedure of offering sacrifices to the heavens, I have been instructed repeatedly and strictly checked." Feng Yuanpo's voice was choked up: "My Majesty's meal, I am even more careful, and I dare not have it." It was not sloppy at all, but in the end, the minister put all his energy into thinking, but was suspected by the commander in chief... If the commander in chief could be suspicious, it proved that the minister did not do well. The birthday ceremony is such a big event. I implore the holy majesty to punish me!"

"Mr. Zhong is too sensitive." The emperor waved his hands and smiled, "Chilian is just being careful, not against you!"

Feng Yuanpo shook his head and said: "I would like to report to the Holy Majesty, Dian Shuai's dissatisfaction with his ministers has not lasted for a day or two, and what Dian Shuai said today is not a whim...!"

Chi Liandian didn't change his face, but just looked at Feng Yuanpo expressionlessly.

The emperor said "Oh" and asked, "Why did Duke Zhong make such a statement?"

Feng Yuanpo hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Reporting to the Holy Majesty, since the Holy Majesty visited Hexi on his northern tour, everyone in Hexi has been grateful. It is a blessing for Hexi that dragons walk here. The soldiers and people in Hexi are all grateful for the grace of the Holy Majesty. "Paused, looked up at the emperor, his eyes were a little red, "But I was criticized by some people because of this...!"

"Oh?" The emperor frowned.

Feng Yuan broke his face and said: "I am a rough man. I only want to be loyal to my sage, protect my family and defend the country, and I will go through fire and water for my sage... My loyalty to my sage has a clear conscience, which can be seen in the world, and I have always said , I am a dog of the Holy Majesty, and I will protect it loyally. I will bite whoever the Majesty tells me to bite. If anyone dares to offend Tianwei, I will be smashed to pieces, and I will fight him to the death." Because of this, it is regarded as a thorn in the flesh by some people."

Chi Liandian sneered and said, "Does the people mentioned by Governor Feng include me, Chi Liandian?"

Feng Yuanpo turned to look at Chiliandian, and said coldly, "What do you think the commander-in-chief thinks?"

"This Commander is very strange. This Commander just reminded you to be more careful about the food you eat, but you never expected Governor Feng to be so hoarse." Chi Liandian said indifferently: "Why is Governor Feng so excited because of a single sentence? Could it be that in the middle Is there really any problem?"

Feng Yuanpo sneered and said: "If this sentence came from someone else, I would only think it was kindness and loyalty to the Holy Majesty, so I wouldn't be so excited, but if this sentence came from your mouth, I have to argue gone."

He had already called him by his first name at this time, obviously tearing his face apart in public.

All the officials present were shocked, and even the crown prince frowned. Everyone knew that Feng Yuanpo was a man of both sides. People who don't know the truth will often be confused by him because of his heart-to-heart attitude. They only think that the Governor of Hexi is a man of temperament and loyal to others.

For a long time, Feng Yuanpo gave people the impression of being polite, with a smile on his face, not to mention the founding hero of the empire like Chi Liandian, or an ordinary official with a much lower status than Feng Yuanpo, Feng Yuanpo Po also never puts on airs, and is very warm to people. No one would have thought that today's birthday ceremony, because of Chi Liandian's words, Feng Yuanpo reacted so excitedly, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, he was in public with Chi Lian. Refining electricity and tearing his face, this is completely different from Feng Yuanpo in people's hearts.

All the people in the hall are high-ranking officials of the empire, and they all understand that there must be evil spirits in abnormal things. Feng Yuanpo's abnormal behavior made everyone feel that today's things seem a little difficult.
