Playful Queen

Chapter 37

When the words came out, that face was extremely beautiful, really like a pearl that was dizzy, the beautiful jade was shining, there was a hidden aura between the brows, and the expression was so calm that it made people afraid, even the abbot took a step back in shock.

Zi Yechen stared at Mengli, and said lightly, "I don't know what the queen wants to prove?"

This is a feudal society, since superstition is used to slander her, well, she will use black to control black, and use superstition to defeat superstition!
Mengli stood high, her stunning skirt was blown by the wind, her black hair was flying in the wind, her soft face smiled, and she slowly said to the crowd: "It proves the god's instruction, the reason why its hand is broken is It’s just to protect the palace!”

"Extremely ridiculous!" Everyone looked disdainful and sarcastic.

"Do you want to know why the bergamot dropped?" Mengli ignored their gazes, raised her head proudly and continued, "God is telling me that the hand that the gods bestowed on me has unique functions!"

As soon as the words came out, everyone looked in disbelief, and they all became agitated one after another, and began to confuse the crowd by talking about the Queen.

Standing on the high platform, Mengli didn't take it seriously, and said again: "Everyone, be safe and don't be impatient, I will prove the revelation of the god today!"

"How do you want to prove it?" Zi Yechen asked in a low voice, but Mengli smiled lightly, blissful, "Back to the emperor, the gods instructed that the concubine, as the mother of a country, must be the same as the emperor, for Jin Tian If you go up the river and mountains, go down the pan of oil, then use the hands of the concubine to pour the pan of oil to show the innocence of the concubine!"

Then turned around, raised a pair of white hands high, and said loudly: "This palace proves God's protection with these hands!"

When everyone heard this, they all shivered, which caused even greater commotion and whispers. Prove it with the frying pan?That's a frying pan!There is no doubt that he must die!
Zi Moyu also showed a horrified expression, what does this girl want to do, put the oil in the pan?Do you want to die?
Shen Yanlang's feet were already trembling on one side, how could this happen!

"Your Majesty, you must not promise the Queen, this..."

"Father, don't worry." Mengli smiled at her caring father, revealing a look that made him believe in her, but she could still see the uneasiness in his heart.

"Are you crazy?" Zi Yechen was also shocked by her, took her arm, and scolded in a low voice.

Mengli shook off his hand, did not speak, walked lightly to Xi'er's side, and whispered a few words in her ear, Xi'er's face turned pale instantly, wondering why Miss would say such things, But knowing the importance of this matter in his heart, he became serious for the first time, nodded, and went down to prepare.

The wind blows over the altar, and Mengli is dressed in a gorgeous phoenix robe, highlighting her graceful figure, soft and noble, letting her hair dance in the wind, Mengli slightly raises her beautiful eyes, there is a hint of aura between her brows, He looked at all kinds of people in the audience very calmly.

Those who watched the theater, those who were contemptuous and disdainful, and those who couldn't believe it, all discussed this matter one after another.

Mengli, however, remained calm without any expression. She smiled coldly in her heart, and finally she turned her gaze on the face of the old monk just now and the official who made the most noise just now. Let's settle this matter first, and settle the score with you later. !
At this time, everything on the stage was ready, and a few eunuchs set up a pot full of oil, and then lit the firewood under the pot, and the fire was blazing. Soon, the pot was filled with oil. The oil in it boiled and rolled continuously, like a volcano about to erupt.

Seeing this scene, everyone took a deep breath nervously. If you really put your hands down the boiling oil, it would definitely be cooked. Could it be that the queen is really crazy?Or is there really a blessing from the gods?
A wicked smile curled up on the corner of Mengli's mouth, rolled up her cloud sleeves, and was about to walk to the boiling oil pan, when a force suddenly grabbed her arm, "Shen Mengli..."

Mengli raised her eyebrows, met the emperor's gaze, and said with that wicked smile still on her face, "What? Is the emperor worried about his concubine?"

Upon hearing this, Zi Yechen's expression suddenly darkened, "I can't possibly be worried about you!"

"Then... please let the emperor let go of the concubine's hand." Meng Li said calmly.

Zi Yechen still held Mengli's hand tightly, and growled at her inexplicably: "Shen Mengli, do you know what you are doing?"

Mengli smiled elegantly, broke away from the hands that were holding her tightly, and looked at the old monk, "Old monk, you have to see clearly!"

After finishing speaking, under countless pairs of complicated eyes, she slowly put both hands into the frying pan...

This kind of behavior made everyone in the audience turn pale with shock, some covered their mouths, some covered their eyes with their hands, and couldn't bear to watch any longer, Xi'er Xi'er was already so frightened that tears spilled out , her feet softened, and she knelt on the ground, crying and kowtowing, she really put her hands into the scalding hot spot!

Zi Yechen's complexion was not much better either, Jun's face was pale, and just as he was about to grab her hand, he saw Mengli's hand, which was covered in hot oil, pulled out and raised it high, only to see that the hand was still radiating. Oily heat.

Everyone gasped, staring fixedly at a pair of intact hands, peaceful, as if dead still.

"The empress is really protected by the gods!" A voice of exclamation broke the silence, like a howling eagle, resounding through the sky, and then the call came like an overwhelming mountain, "Our empress is a god descended, Jin Jin!" Blessed is heaven! Blessed is Jintian!"

Swish Swish Swish, everyone knelt down layer upon layer like ocean waves, shouting: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live, long live, long live, long live, long live, thousand years, thousand years, queen!"

This scene, this voice seemed to startle the sky, and the clouds would part in an instant, and I saw a golden sun shining through the thin clouds, swaying on the Baoguang Temple, and caressing the white and transparent little face, the gorgeous phoenix The gown is full of glory.

Meng Li's face was calm, she stared at the scene of kneeling down under the stage, she didn't say a word, she just met those long and narrow phoenix eyes, and finally landed on the tall body beside her, meeting Zi Yechen's cold eyes eyes.

The black eyes were still staring at the pair of oily hands, and he was the one who saw it the most clearly throughout the whole process. How could it be possible that she put her hand into the hot oil pan, but it didn't hurt at all?

Overwhelm superstition with superstition, her physics is not learned in vain, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of Mengli's mouth, and her bright eyes turned to the old monk who was dressed in cassock, and he seemed to be frightened by the situation , especially at this moment, the eyes of the Empress made his nervous palms sweat, and he lowered his head, not daring to speak.

...But it was different in ancient times. Everyone respected the gods and believed in superstitions, so she had to use superstitions to overwhelm superstitions. Mengli took advantage of the turmoil and said loudly: "The gods just returned it to me. A revelation is the fact that the lightning splitting the Buddha's hand is purely man-made!"
