Chapter 143: What Happened at the Ceremony
Yaoling also looked at his father with some surprise, and even Fengzhao's heart was a little stunned, and then he thought that it was because Rong Yuan loved Yaoling too much.
A delicate brocade box suddenly appeared in front of the rattle, and looked at it along the hand that handed the brocade box, and Rong Jianghai on the side had a feigned frustration between his eyebrows, "Give it to you, this is the treasure of the town house in my house." β
Yaoling opened the brocade box, and an opal the size of a pigeon's egg immediately attracted her eyes, and she was overjoyed to look at the opal that shimmered with a magnificent and strange luster.
"I knew that my brother loved me the most. She gave Rong Jianghai a bright smile.
"This is the best treasure in my house, knowing that you are greedy, I gave it to you early, and the province was searched by yourself and there is no favor. Rong Jianghai muttered in his mouth, pretending to be helpless and heartache with hidden cordiality and warmth. Yaoling's heart couldn't help but heat up, this brother seems to be annoying and greedy for money, but in fact he is also a kind and gentle person.
A cold "hum" sound reached the ears of the brother and sister, and the two of them raised their eyes at the same time to see the somewhat mocking look of Fengzhao on the other side. Yaoling glared at Feng Zhao with a slight annoyance, and then pretended to exaggerate the night pearl in the palm of her hand and put it on her face to make a happy and obsessed look, and there was a hint of feigned annoyance at the bottom of Feng Zhao's eyes.
"Yao'er. Rong Yuan called softly, Yao Ling hurriedly raised her big shining eyes, and saw her father Rong Yuan smiling and shaking his head slightly at her, signaling that she was holding a ceremony. So he quickly glanced at the civil and military ministers in the hall, and hurriedly put the night pearl in his hand back into the brocade box. and naughtily stuck out his tongue at his father.
"The envoy of the country of thistle has arrivedβ" At this time. Outside the main hall, there was another elongated announcement.
All the people in the hall turned their heads to look outside the hall gate again, and Yao Ling, who was facing Rong Yuan playfully sticking out her tongue, suddenly stunned on the seat, and looked out of the hall door without blinking.
The wind on the opposite side did not look at the temple door, he gently picked up the wine cup in front of him and took a sip elegantly, and a sword-like cold light flashed sharply under his eyes.
"Xuan" Rong Yuan's clear voice sounded again.
Three people walked in outside the palace gate, led by a capable middle-aged man.
"The envoy of the Ji Kingdom visited Jiang Li. He also led everyone to perform standard diplomatic etiquette towards Rong Yuan.
"Your Majesty the Emperor of our country has ordered me to come and give some gifts in the name of the country of thistle. With that, he took out a brocade box from his sleeve, and a palace man came to collect it with a porcelain plate, but the man did not place the brocade box on the porcelain plate. Instead, he looked at the Yao Ling on Rong Yuan's side with a pair of deep eyes. Then he said slowly: "His Majesty the Emperor of our country has ordered us to personally hand over this gift to Princess Rongyu. β
Suddenly, all eyes in the main hall were fixed on Yao Ling next to Rong Yuan.
Someone whispered, "How can our princess know the Thistle Emperor?"
The person next to him shook his head blankly.
Yaoling took the brocade box but didn't open it, just asked softly: "Is the Thistle Emperor good?"
"Princess Xie Rongyu asked, my country's monarch is fine, but I miss Her Royal Highness the princess very much. The visitor replied shallowly. A pair of eyes stared into Yaoling's eyes. There was some helplessness in his tone.
Yaoling was stunned for a moment. I don't know why I felt a little sad in my heart, "Go back and thank Emperor Ji for this princess." β
"I will convey the princess's heart to my emperor. The man said lightly.
"Since the ambassador is here, will he attend the banquet?" Yao Ling said to the envoy Zhencheng.
"Her Royal Highness Princess Xie. We will be ordered to return to the country as soon as the gifts are delivered, and we will bid farewell to Her Royal Highness the Princess. With that, he saluted Yaoling, then turned around and was about to walk out.
"Slow. A cold and majestic voice suddenly came.
All the people turned their eyes to the talking Fengzhao again, only to see him slowly get up from his seat, slowly walked to the envoy, glanced at him, and said to the envoy in a deep voice: "Since the ambassador is here, how can he leave without attending the ceremony?"
Yaoling saw Feng Zhao's outstretched hand, and also stretched out her little hand and put it in Feng Zhao's palm. Feng Zhao gently shook Yao Ling's hand and pulled her down from her seat. Then he turned around and faced all the civil ministers and military generals in the main hall, as well as the three envoys of the Ji Kingdom.
Then he turned his head and looked at Yaoling in the palm of his hand, and there was a strong love in his deep eyes, "I finally waited for this day." The gentle and shallow words blew into Yaoling's ears like the wind.
She raised her eyes to look at the wind and saw the vicissitudes of his eyes and sighed, melancholy and joy, cold and arrogant and gentle. Gently raising a slender jade hand, she brushed away a strand of hair in front of her for him, and smiled brightly at him: "In this life, I am only for you." Before I knew it, tears were falling.
Raised his hand lightly, brushed away the tear for her, and then took off the newly worn gold crown she had received and handed it to the palace man on the side.
"Today, I will personally serve you. He looked at her tenderly and whispered. The fingers that stayed on Yaoling's bun moved slightly, and suddenly a cloud-like hair poured on Rattle's shoulders.
Then he took out a peach wood comb from his sleeve cage and combed it gently and meticulously for Yao Ling, who obediently let the wind comb her hair, and it seemed that she saw the boy who rode a horse and picked her up in the Qilin Valley. The bottom of his eyes couldn't help but glow with a touch of crystal vapor again. At this moment, only she knew how lonely and lonely her Xiaofeng had been. Now this lonely and arrogant little boy has finally grown into a towering tree, but in her eyes he is still so lonely and lonely. She wanted to warm him and love him with her own heart. She wouldn't allow anyone to hurt him. Not even herself.
Time passed slowly, and all the people in the hall, including Rong Yuan and Rong Jianghai, silently watched the scene in front of them, they saw that the man who was as domineering as the clouds and the sun was concentrating on combing the hair of their princess, he combed it so carefully and carefully, for fear that if he was not careful, he would pull off one of Yaoling's hair.
Not long after, a simple and soft bun appeared on Yaoling's head, straightening Yaoling's head, he carefully looked at it from top to bottom, and then took out a brocade box from his sleeve. opened the brocade box, picked up the hairpin inside, stretched it out in front of Yaoling and asked in a low voice, "Do you like it?"
"It's so beautiful!" Yaoling couldn't help but shout, her face full of amazement.
A exquisite, crystal clear, transparent crystal hairpin quietly exudes colorful dazzling light in the hand of Fengzhao. The top of the hairpin is four or five gardenias with a beautiful shape gathered together, under the gardenia angler three strings of crystal beads that are also crystal clear, under the three strings of crystal beads is a transparent and light crystal butterfly, with the crystal beads on the hairpin shaking slightly, as if looking for a flower to stay, in the butterfly's transparent wings are also inlaid with small golden-yellow blue-purple gemstones, faintly sparkling with charming brilliance.
Gently pinned her to her bun, looked at it carefully, and finally said aloud to all the people in the hall: "My Yaoling is the most beautiful woman in the world. β
Ren is Yaoling is accustomed to his way of expression, and at this moment, her face is still involuntarily like a red apple.
Taking Yao Ling's hand, he faced the envoy of the Ji Kingdom led by him and said coldly: "Please tell Ji Rujin when you go back, thank him for the gift he gave to the princess of this king, and if there is a chance, this king will definitely go to the country of Ji to visit him." Fang Run's voice had an indescribable cold arrogance and domineering.
The envoy of the Ji Kingdom had a gloomy face, faintly angry, and wanted to attack, but he felt a strong aura faintly attacking them, and suddenly turned away.
"If you're like this, thistle Rujin will be embarrassed. Yao Ling said in a low voice that only she and Fengzhao could hear. She always didn't want to hurt Ji Rujin's heart too much, after all, he loved her.
"He sent someone to give you a gift at your ceremony, ignoring my save, which is a contempt for me. Feng Zhao also replied to Yao Ling in a low voice.
Yaoling didn't speak again, Feng Zhao was right, Ji Rujin so openly gave her a gift in the name of Ji Guo in the court, for her, it was a courtesy exchange between the two countries. But for Fengzhao is a provocation, thinking of Ji Rujin's sad smile, my heart suddenly felt a little melancholy.
She was originally kind-hearted and never wanted to hurt anyone who was good to her, but some harm was inevitable.
Suddenly, as if they had discovered something wrong, the two of them looked at the main hall, but found that the people in the entire court were like clay sculptures, and they looked at the two of them in a daze.
The flush that had just faded flew up Yaoling's cheeks again.
Let Fengzhao take her hand and walk in front of her father Rong Yuan. At this moment, Rong Yuan looked at the wind quietly, and there was a faint joy and appreciation in his long eyes.
With a flick of his robe, Feng Zhao knelt down on one leg and saluted Rong Yuan: "Changyue Ning knocked to see Jiang Liguojun." "According to etiquette. Fengzhao is the county king of Yanlong, and Yanlong and Jiang Li are both equal countries, so Fengzhao does not need to bow when he sees Jiang Li and Xiwu. But at this moment, he openly bowed to Rong Yuan above the court, which made Yaoling's heart warm and warm.
"Today, I, Chang Yuening, promised Jiang Li Guojun that I would only marry Rong Yu in this life and never live up to her. His voice was square and round, and his tone was firm and decisive.
Rong Yuan quietly looked at Fengzhao who bowed, and after a while, he slowly walked down the steps, stretched out one hand to pull Yaoling, and stretched out the other hand to help Fengzhao.
Putting Yaoling's hand into Fengzhao's hand, he glanced at Yaoling with loving eyes, and then looked at Fengzhao heavily, "Remember your promise." β
With a flick of his sleeves, he climbed the stairs and stood on the main seat, and said loudly: "Come, write down the promise of King Ningjun to King Lone, and on the other day, if King Ning County loses my daughter, Lone will take his promise to compete with him." β
"Father" His Royal Highness Yaoling, who was standing, was a little anxious, and wanted to stop his father on the steps, but suddenly Fengzhao's hand tightened, and he looked sideways, only to see Fengzhao smiling at her and shaking his head, a pair of handsome eyes full of affection.
