Reign of the Phoenix

A man in Huayan's official uniform, with a neatly lined up team, came in with a box of presents. The line is long and there is no end to sight. Murong Yan Ning looked up, she wondered how Yan Yan knew today is the birthday of her father and king? How can you send birthday gifts in such a timely manner?

The ambassador read the congratulatory list and delivered a congratulatory message: "My emperor heard that today is the birthday of Her Majesty, and I send the birthday congratulations on behalf of my emperor. I also wish your Majesty your as long as the sun rises, as the moon rises. Like the life of Nanshan, Not stubborn. If there is no pine or cypress, there is nothing wrong or inherited. "

Han Xun was very happy and replied: "Your lord Feng Yi was under the care of your Majesty when he was in Huayan. Your Majesty will return your lord Feng Yi to Zhao. Your lord is grateful. Today, Your Majesty also sent his best wishes to You. I would like to ask your ambassador to express His gratitude to His Majesty, and Your Shang Xia is willing to make friends with Hua Yan for generations. "The envoy sang a promise and retreated.

Immediately afterwards, there were four princes of Wu Liguo who brought gifts to He Shou with the envoy. The envoy gave a congratulatory message, and the four princes arched and said, "In the lower Uri Kingdom, the fourth prince Gao Chenghao, heard that her Majesty was going to summon a horse for Princess Feng Yi, and then she admired Princess Qiongzi ’s beautiful appearance and wanted to marry the princess. My princess. "Gao Chenghao finished, a pair of handsome star eyes, unscrupulously landed on Murong Yanning.

Gao Chenghao, the fourth prince of Wu Liguo, was wearing a black beast-patterned brocade. His sword and eyebrows were sharp and his eyes were clear. He looked romantic, noble and mysterious. However, staring at Murong Xiongning's eyes, a little frivolousness was revealed. He professed to be the prince of a neighboring country, and he was determined to get Murongyu.

Han Yan smiled: "Your country and my gang are friendly and good-neighbors, and Your aunt, Princess Fengyi, is honored by Her Highness. It is her honor to choose the matter attached to the horse, and it is up to Fengyi herself. Go to Sangrou Palace in Fengyi, where someone will arrange for the princess to choose a horse. Her Royal Highness, please come to the table to eat. "

Murong 芷 condensed under Gao Chenghao's wild eyes, like a thorn in his back. She rolled her eyes and looked at him, facing Gao Chenghao's bright star eyes. do not know why? Murong Mining suddenly felt a little scared. As if she saw the handsome appearance of Gao Chenghao's handsome Swen, that beast-like restless heart, Murong Mining shivered a little.

The male guests at the banquet whispered and talked again. Gao Chenghao's addition gave them a sense of crisis. Tuoba Zhi was restless, he knew Murong's mind. If Murong Xuan forgets Yun Yunyue Xuan, then Tuobazhi will be her best choice. If she cannot forget Xun Yunyue Xuan, no one can enter her heart.

Everyone enjoyed the food and wine of the dinner with all their hearts, and Murong's gaze fell on Tuoba, who was hit by white clothes in the distance. She was startled first, then smiled at him lightly.

The chorus sounded, and a group of children around the age of twelve entered the stadium with lanterns and danced for a longevity. The brisk music accompanied the children's lively dancing, which made people feel relaxed. At the end of the dance, the lantern in the hands of the two children was opened. It was actually a banner with the letters "Fu Shou Wu Jiang" written on it. Han Yun is in a good mood and hearty

I was stunned for a lot of money. The following are routine birthday celebrations in the palace. The seats were full of restless hearts, and they looked forward to the end of the dinner soon, so that they could go to the princess' Sangrou Palace to participate in the election of the horse. ￥ 爱 奇 & ahref = & ot;: i7x & ot; & ot; _ & ot;> i7x & / a> ...

When the show was finished, everyone would pay tribute to Han Yun. The older ones stayed in the seats and participated in various rewarding games. Those male guests who were eligible for the election to join the horses left the banquet and went to Sangrou Palace.

The lanterns in the Sangrou Palace are full of lights, and rows of colorful lanterns are intertwined with ropes in the air, like stars in the sky. On the large terrace on the second floor of Murong Ning Ning Ling Palace, there are giant domes made of various lanterns. The terrace is surrounded by a dozen or so desks. A wooden table was temporarily set up in the center of the terrace, covered with elegant carpets, with a piano stand and stool, and an elegant ancient piano. The young men who participated in the selection of horses were respectfully invited by the palace ladies to the terrace and sat at the desks in a circle.

There are eighteen young men participating in the election of the attached horse. Some are short and poor-looking. They feel hopeless and give up.

As a close friend of the princess, Tong Tuoba Lan sat side by side with Murong Xing, and she gave a playful wink to Tuoba.

The court ladies brought refreshments to each case table, and Tuoba Lan stood up and said, "Thank you all for your participation in the horse selection of Princess Feng Yi. Please drink a cup of fragrant tea first, and the princess will have fun with you Game. If you have any skills in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, you can also show it and have fun with everyone. "

Tuo Tuo Lan poured tea for the men himself, and she suddenly became a close-fitting maid of Murong Xing Ning, and Tuo Ba shook her head and smiled. Tuoba Lan said after tea: "Now, the princess will play a small game with the sons. I will briefly introduce the rules of the game. The princess will put on the maid's clothes and mix with the other eleven maids. They will be veiled with silk cloth. If the boys present can find the princess among the twelve, they can participate in the next round of the game. The eliminated boys can no longer participate in the selection of horses, but they can still watch. "

There was a rumbling of sounds around him, where several familiar family members whispered. Tuoba Lan glanced around, and her eyes fell on a person. She frowned and tried to remember, where had she seen this person? She walked in front of the boy: "Excuse me, where have we met? How do I think the boy is so good?"

The man lowered his head and blushed: "I haven't seen a girl under Wanyuan." Tuoba Lan suddenly realized: "It was you! How dare you come to join the princess's horse?" Wanyuan's neck stalked: "There are no eyes in the lower part, and the princess sacred the car on the day of Mid-Autumn Festival. After the lower part is also a famous gate and meets the conditions, it is naturally entitled to participate in the selection of the attached horse." You. "The crowd laughed. The fan in Tuobazhi's hand shook slightly, and laughed with everyone.

From time to time, twelve women in palace clothes were helped to the middle of the terrace. They all covered their faces with red silk, wearing the same

Women's clothing in the palace. Tuoba Lan glanced at the family sons in a circle: "Please ask the sons and daughters in order to write the number you think is a princess. For example, if you think it is the third from left to right, write a three. No Standing up, you can only sit and watch. Remember to write your own name on the paper. "The palace ladies gave pen and ink to each desk.

Everyone writes their own numbers, and they stop writing and wait for the results. Tuoba Lan took all the written paper away, and the twelve women in the middle uncovered the hijab in public. This round eliminated more than a dozen people and only six were right. The wrongly chosen men retreated unwillingly, and Wan Yuan was among them.

Wan Yuan actually recognized Tuoba Zhi long ago, and he reluctantly bewildered the people who were eliminated: "Don't be fooled, there is fraud. I know the boy in white, and he knows the princess. This one is for horses. Is it possible that it has already been decided? "Tuoba Lan called the guard:" The princess chose to attach a horse, and it was fair and open. The guard invited the troubled boy to go out. "Wan Yuan was ashamed and taken away by the guard from Sangrou Palace.

Tuoba Lan then said: "Next, the main player will play a tune for everyone. If any of you can hear what the princess is playing, you can sit at the table with the princess and talk about it." An envious exclamation sounded.

Murong 芷 condensed into a palace dress, went to the wooden platform, and sat on the bench. Her delicate hands stroked the strings gracefully, and a stream of music flowed from her fingers. The piano sounded like a dragon in shallow water, sometimes cheerful and high-pitched, and sometimes mournfully low. Murong Mining's eyes flashed with confidence. She believed that no one could hear what song she played.

Murong 芷 condensed a song, in which four family members directly rose up to make a series, which was considered abandonment. There were only two left, and they each handed a sheet of paper with a smile. The two were dressed handsomely in black and white. The palace girl entrusted the answers of the two to Murong Mining. Murong Mining took a look, and her face showed a look of astonishment. On the two pieces of paper, three characters were written in a flying manner, "Long Dragon Sleepy."

Tuoba Lan got up and announced: "You guys who have lost the election can leave on their own, and the two sons who got the answer right can stay and talk with the princess." The crowd left Sangrou Palace in despair, and Tuoba and Gao Chenghao were respected by the palace lady. Respectfully made to the desk.

Gao Chenghao stared at Murong Yongning's eyes wildly and wildly: "Is the princess really wanting to choose a horse, or is she going for fun?" Murong Yuening smiled and smiled: "My father didn't order me, I must choose one among you Horse. Even if it is not possible to attach a horse, this palace wants to be a friend with the four princes. "

There was a meaningful smile in Gao Chenghao's eyes: "I won't be content to be friends with the princess." With a wave of his hand, a bright rose came out of his hand. He bent down gracefully and handed the flower to Murong Yanning: "This kind of flower in our country represents the admiration of a man for a woman, and ask the princess to accept it."

Tong Tuobalan screamed, "Ah, that's amazing! How did you make a flower out of thin air? If you hadn't seen me in Xingzhou the other day,

Those who have done tricks, I really think that my son is a fairy. Murong Yan condensed politely and took the flower in Gao Chenghao's hand.

Gao Chenghao's hand waved in front of Tuoba Lan, and he had another yellow rose in his hand. He handed the rose to Tuoba Lan: "In our country, this color of roses is given to my sister. "Toba Lan took the flower happily. Tuoba Zhi's brow frowned. He vaguely felt that the fourth prince Gao Chenghao was a difficult guy.

Murong Mining asked the maid to pour hot tea for the four people, and Murong Mining made a hand gesture: "How did the four princes know the song" Longlong sleepy? "As far as I know, this song has been lost." Gao Chenghao smiled with a fascination. : "The princess wants to know, please call me into the palace next time. Now I'm going to discuss marriage with your father and king."

Tuoba Lan put her hands on her hips and said, "Negotiate what marriage? Our princess didn't promise to marry you?" Gao Chenghao's gaze moved up Murongyan's face: "In our country, if a woman accepts a flower from a man, she agrees His proposal. "

Tuoba Zhi shook the folding fan with a look of disdain: "Then I talk about the rules of our country. If a woman in our country picks up a red rose from a man's hand, it means that she rejected the man's proposal. "

Gao Chenghao laughed: "The boy just said you knew the princess, and I still have a little disbelief. Didn't expect you to join forces to bully people? You are familiar with the princess, and you naturally know this song. But you really know it The person of this song. Am I right, princess? "

Murong Xing's eyebrows tightened tightly: "The four princes have misunderstood. Although Tuoba's son knew this palace, but this palace did not mention it to him. This palace must call you to tell it another day, it is not too early His Highness, please come back. "Gao Chenghao's face was angry:" Below, the princess, please remember the words just now, and wait for the princess to meet alone. "

Gao Chenghao walked away, Tuoba Lan muttered: "This guy is really difficult." Murong Yanning retracted his gaze: "Where did Tuoba son know this song?" Tuoba blushed: "Please forgive the princess When the princess lived in the shelter, I went to the princess's room to find the princess, and the princess happened to be away. I saw an old sheet music on the table, so I picked it up and watched it. To be honest, I didn't know the sheet music at the time. After I went home, I looked up a lot of related ancient books. In a book, there is a remnant page of the sheet music, which is very similar to the princess's sheet music. The song recorded above is called "The Dragon's Sleep", from the Qin Dynasty. No other records were found. "

Murong Mining nodded thoughtfully: "This tune has been lost, but it has a secret from my mother and granddaughter. I have to ask Gao Chenghao again." Tuobazhi looked at Tuoba Landao: "Laner , You go down first, I have something to tell the princess alone. "Tuoba Lan pursed her mouth and complained," I really don't take me as my sister, what else can't be spoken to me! "
