Chapter 54
"When you're done, go find An."

"Yes." Qingyan went down to work with a sad face.

An is the commander of the guards next to the prince. His own martial arts ability is not first-rate, but the servant five who came out of him is not first-rate.Going out in the dark, there is another day. The difference from the literal meaning is that the dark is in charge of the training of the guards in the palace, while the day is in charge of the dark guard system.But unlike An, Zhou's martial arts are unfathomable.

The ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven began soon. The Minister of Rites is a gentle and elegant middle-aged man. It is said that he has only one wife by his side for so many years, not even a housekeeper, and has a son and a daughter. A rare and progressive person among his children.

As a side concubine, Ning Yanxue did not have the opportunity to participate in such a ceremony, but because Gu Caixuan could not enter the palace, Ning Yanxue was given such an opportunity.At first, Ning Yanxue wondered how a person like Gu Caixuan would repay a grievance with kindness. She wished she could tear herself into pieces and push her to attend the Empress Dowager's birthday. However, after what happened last night, Ning Yanxue finally understood that the Gu family only I'm afraid I never thought that I would live to this day.

Because it is a sacrifice to heaven, men and women are only divided into queues. After all, no matter how courageous they are, they dare not perform such obscene actions in front of heaven, earth and ancestors. In addition, the defense of men and women in the Eastern Emperor Kingdom is not as good as the previous ones. The dynasty was so strict that it was normal for men and women to participate in the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven together.

But when it comes to participating, the female relatives can only look at the back and kneel down to worship, and more are the princes, grandchildren and court ministers at the front.

This is suffering for those seventy and eighty-year-old ministers.There is a regulation in the Eastern Emperor's Kingdom that ministers at seventy should not kneel and sit in court.On weekdays, even when you see the emperor, you don’t need to kneel three times and kowtow nine times, but you can’t do it when you worship the ancestors and heaven. Let alone the courtiers, even the emperor has to kneel. Only after reading the long tribute.

The emperor knelt, how could other people not kneel, but the women in the back were a little better, the men in the front all knelt from head to toe, and the women in the back were only used after each sacrificial oration, and the ritual officer shouted: Kneel during the "kowtow" and just get up by yourself.It sounds like a more humane approach.

The sacrificial rites were finally read to the end. Ning Yanxue had done her homework beforehand because she was worried about making mistakes. When to kowtow, how to kowtow, and the last few kowtows. .

Just as she was thinking about when it would end, Ning Yanxue suddenly felt a pair of piercing eyes shining in front of her, and she followed the feeling that something was wrong. Ning Yanxue only saw a man with a gloomy face looking at her, Ning Yanxue Naturally, he knew that the eldest son of the concubine, Gu Qingxia, who was raised by the concubine Xuan's mother.

What a waste of such a good name.Where there is no time, it is almost blind to say.

Really lingering, Ning Yanxue cursed secretly, as if she hadn't seen anything.

Soon, the sacrifice to heaven was over, and the empress dowager climbed onto the high platform with a loving face under the support of the empress dowager. After accepting the longevity soup presented by the ceremony officer, her eyes slowly glanced at the kneeling people below: "May the ancestors bless you!" My Eastern Emperor's country will last forever, the frontier will be in Yongning, and the people of the world will be safe forever. May my ancestors bless my Eastern Emperor to enjoy a prosperous world forever."

"Enjoy the prosperity forever, enjoy the prosperity forever..." The collision of neat spears and halberds with the ground made the blood boil, like a triumphal song of victory from a distant battlefield.

Every man has a dream of being in the army, where there are no women, no tenderness, where there is only endless sweat and endless suffering, where the steel guns are cold, where there are no sweet words at night, where people are made of steel Generally, they carry the badge on their shoulders and guard the home that they have not seen for many days.

Looking at these enthusiastic men, Ning Yanxue was confused again for a moment, as if she had returned to the era when there was no large-scale war. As the sharpest force in the motherland, she went through life and death with her sisters again and again, relying on No matter how many conflicts there are with each other, on the battlefield, they are each other's protective shields. Even if they die, they must block the bullets flying towards the sisters' heads.

Even though she traveled once and changed into a fragile body, Ning Yanxue looked at the upper iron halberds that hit the ground. She never belonged to the back house of this era. She should go to a farther place and continue to let her soul Glow and heat.

Longxi Palace, one day, I, Ning Yanxue, will leave this cage and go to a place where Ning Yanxue belongs to the descendants of the Ning family.Ning Yanxue silently made up her mind.

Ning Yanxue is a hot-blooded person, she will not kill innocent people indiscriminately, but she will protect herself, she is passionate, sometimes she will be impulsive and ignore everything, but sometimes she will be cold-hearted, and if others let her down, she will always protect herself. return a hundredfold.There is a grudge to die, and a kindness to return a kindness.

Murong Jinxi helped her once, and she gave Murong Jinxi back once.

The end of the sacrifice is the time for the banquet.The Empress Dowager’s birthday banquet in Donghuang Kingdom is different from other places. The Empress Dowager’s birthday banquet is held from noon to night, and the food that can’t be eaten at noon will not be lost or thrown away, but will be held at the gates of each city. For For the common people, even leftovers from the palace are still rare.

In addition, there will be some unused banquets, but these banquets need to be paid for, and the price is not low. The money will eventually go to the Wuya Academy opened by the Eastern Emperor Kingdom for those talented but poor families. For use, of course the money has to be kept in accounts, and when these poor students are successful in the future, a part of it will be deducted from their salary every month, and it will gradually return to Wuya Academy.

In this way, it also directly led to Donghuang's abundance of talents. Although there are few generals, the surrounding countries dare not take action easily.

As usual, there is an opening program before the banquet. It is said that every year this opening opportunity belongs to the Murong spiritual song brought back to the palace by the empress dowager.In order to perform this show well, Murong Linge mostly started preparing half a year ago, not to mention being fully prepared, and can come up with new tricks every time.

It's been a long time, and the people of the five major countries are easy to remember the princess of which country, but the Murong Lingge is remembered by every royal family, because of this annual banquet program.

It is said that last year, everyone performed a juggling show, and the fish embroidered on the screen could move by itself, even if it moved, it kept swimming towards the queen mother.In the end, he even put a birthday character on the screen, which made the empress dowager very happy.

I don't know what show to perform this year. I have to say that although Ning Yanxue thinks that Murong Lingge's style and personality are really not good, it's good to be unique.I don't know what show I'm going to perform this year.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Murong Lingge wearing a wide-sleeved Confucian robe, bending slightly towards the princes of various countries and the various figures of the Eastern Emperor below, as a greeting, followed by a long sleeve flipping up in the air, followed by the first Two, the two water sleeves are flying in the air like two wheels, which can be regarded as beautiful.With the constantly flying flowers, the whole banquet was filled with fragrance.

With the dancing of the water sleeves, the waist is also constantly dancing. Ning Yanxue watched for a while, only to feel that her heart was slowly condensed on the dance, and after a while, she only saw a long life flying in front of her eyes .

Is there something confusing in the fantasy dance?Ning Yanxue sneered, she really didn't seem to understand, could this Murong Lingge still be able to perform magic dances.

This phantom dance was created by a princess of the previous dynasty. It was said that it was spread to other countries after several times, but soon, people discovered that this phantom dance is not for everyone, except for the princess of the previous dynasty. No one has the same effect, and those who have seen it look back again. Although they know the psychedelic function of the illusion dance, no matter how you avoid it, you will find yourself so confused by this dance that you can’t remember what to do next. Now, only what the dancing person wants to express is left in the eyes, like now, what the Murong Spiritual Song wants to express is the word longevity.

However, although this Murong Lingge's dancing skills, if compared, it is not as good as Ji Yaowu, the number one dancer in Shengjing.Can such a Murong spiritual song perform a phantom dance?Ning Yanxue wrinkled her nose slightly, the scent covered other smells, it was a good idea, but, I have to say, the whole Murong Linge is not generally courageous.

Ning Yanxue guessed right. With the death of the former princess, no one in the whole world can perform the phantom dance. The real reason for the phantom dance is not how superb the dancing skills are, but the voice of the former princess. At that time, there was a strange fragrance on her body, but the princess of the previous dynasty was deeply favored by the emperor. The emperor was worried that his daughter would cause disasters due to the strange fragrance, so he planted all kinds of flowers in the palace, and never let the princess go out. The palace, even the phantom dance, is paired with fresh flowers, so the world will naturally think it is the fragrance of flowers.

Where did this Murong Linge know the secret about the princess of the previous court, and then he thought of such a method, but to use medicines against the envoys of the five major kingdoms and the important figures of the Eastern Emperor, Murong Linge may have done something wrong on his own. Not far away.

After passing through the dance of Murong Linge, Ning Yanxue saw that the queen mother sitting in the high position was not as good as she was at the beginning, but it was rare that she didn't have a seizure, she just looked at the ignorant Murong Linge indifferently.

At the end of the last one, Murong Linge knelt on the ground with both legs, and said with a smile: "Lingge congratulates the queen mother on her birthday. I wish the queen mother will always be young and youthful forever."

Who doesn't like to hear nice words, especially congratulations on people's well-maintained skin, which wins the hearts of women. Even if she is dissatisfied with Murong Linge's actions just now, the Queen Mother is also amused by Murong Linge's actions just now, happy Said: "Return it well, you can talk more about spiritual songs than your brother, your brother will only wish Ai's family blessings every year, such as Donghai's longevity, if Ai's life is really better than Nanshan, you will become an old witch .”

There was a burst of laughter, because of these two words of the empress dowager, it was rare for the courtiers and family members who were sitting down to be less restrained.

Murong Linge said in disbelief: "That's not true, the mother's queen is Shoubi Nanshan, and Shoubinanshan is not an old witch, it is the mother's queen who has a long life."

The Empress Dowager smiled and said: "Reward, the Ai family's spiritual songs are so good, how can we not reward it?"

Murong Linge turned his head and smiled slightly at Ning Yanxue who was behind him, blinked his eyes, and then looked at the empress dowager with a smile on his face: "Mother, if Linge has done something wrong, you don't need to be rewarded, will the merits and demerits be offset?" After speaking, he looked eagerly at the empress dowager.

The emperor sitting on the top had a rare good-natured expression. "Princess Suian, you must know that the rewards given by the Empress Dowager are always high-grade. Princess Suian really doesn't want rewards, but to pay for success?"

Murong Linge nodded like a child: "Suian just wants to offset the merits and demerits of the queen mother."

Murong Yu smiled, turned to look at the Empress Dowager: "Mother, what do you mean?"

The queen mother said with a good temper: "It's rare that this child has a heart. Just talk about it."

Murong Linge timidly took a medicine bottle from the maid, and muttered: "Mother, Linge played a little trick just now to make you happy, please punish me."
