Chapter 17, Flower Show
As soon as Hua Xilie arrived home, he immediately gossiped about the prince's poverty to Xuesha. www.biquge.info"He is almost twenty years old, and he still lives in the palace, and he doesn't even have his own prince's mansion!" There wasn't a single treasure in the house! And what he eats, you know? ”
Xuesha was full of guilt and sympathy, "I know, it's wild vegetables...... The consumption of the East Palace is only two taels of silver per month. Because the emperor withheld all the money in his hands and wanted to build a super underground palace for himself. ”
Hua Xilie was amazed, "Why didn't he kill the emperor and do it himself?" It's useless! ”
"How can you have that thought? Filial piety comes first. No matter how bad a father is, the only way to be a child is to be obedient. Huahua, you must not say such things in front of the prince...... This is an important virtue. ”
Hagiyeol was blocked by the rabbit's words. There are so many rules in the fairy world!
She suddenly had a basic worry about her future life: after marrying the prince, what should she do if she has no meat to eat? What to do if one accidentally reveals his evil nature? Thinking about it from a distance, even if the crown prince returns to the throne in the future, give her a fairy household registration, so many moral standards, how can she live?
It's so sad!
But do you want to give up? The fairy world is full of endless auspiciousness and light...... When she was a little demon, she longed for that place very much!
Hua Xilie's gaze gradually became firm. Forget it, no matter how poor and bitter she is, this princess has to be deserved. It's really not good, and then conquer it by force!
"Huahua, why don't you speak?" In the microscope stone, which is as big as a small fingernail, the sound of snow and sand is soft and glutinous.
"I'm here." Hua Xilie came back to his senses and said to his best friend.
Xue Sha persuaded flatteringly, "You won't change your mind, you don't want to be the crown princess, right?" ”
"That's not ......"
Xuesha paused, suddenly remembered something, and said in an excited tone, "By the way, Huahua, I just flipped through the booklet and found that the peony fairy has also descended to earth!" ”
"Peony fairy?"
"It's what I told you, the peony who treats the third prince as her husband all day long!"
"Oh?" Hua Xilie became interested, "She has also descended to earth, who is it?" ”
"Hee-hee......" the Snow Sand Thief laughed, "She's gone to the Liekook." It is Jun Susu, the first beauty of the Lie Country. is about to marry the prince of Lieguo as a concubine. ”
"Can't she recognize the third prince who is not what she has in mind at all?"
"Of course not. When the immortals descend to earth, their memories are erased. The only way to do this is to plant a subconscious mind in yourself. The consciousness she planted must be to marry the prince of the Lieguo! Hee-hee! ”
"I see!" Hua Xilie gloated and laughed.
The next day, claiming to be "the man who will marry you in the future", sent a letter to the Lin Mansion again.
The degree of shamelessness has intensified. It reads:
"Miss may not believe me, but I know the future of this world inside out. He also has a clear understanding of the fate of many people. I know very well that the prince is by no means the lady's lover. If she marries into the East Palace, she will regret it.
And I myself have long been in love with Miss. I didn't want to hope for that, but I was terminally ill. For various reasons, it is not yet possible to meet the lady in the light, but one day in the future, I will give you the grandest and most splendid wedding.
Please give up choosing a concubine. One day, you'll be glad you did.
--The man who will marry you in the future. ”
Hua Xilie decided that it was written by the innocent county lord or Cheng Zhen and others, and decisively took the letter to pieces. He said, "If there is such a letter in the future, you don't have to show it to me again." ”
Those two guys dare to engage in conspiracy and trickery, and she will not show mercy to her subordinates this time when choosing a concubine!
In the next two days, the capital entered a crazy warm-up period.
Every household found the colored silk ribbon at the bottom of the box. The trees and eaves are full of lanterns.
In the situation that everyone is not full, such joy is like a carnival before death.
No matter how poor the country is, the prince cannot be without a wife. The prince is eighteen this year, and the eldest is not small. If he doesn't marry a wife, it doesn't matter if he loses face, if he damages the dignity of the royal family, it will be a big matter.
Although the old emperor hated this rebel and was secretly determined to abolish him, he still thought that it was necessary to choose a woman for him before he could do it.
So, everyone went hungry together and carried out this grand event.
On Ruihe Road, all business activities stopped. From a distance of three miles from the palace, a golden carpet was laid out. As soon as the hour arrived, the candidate woman sat on the specially made flower chariot at home, and marched to the palace while being observed by the people.
This process is called "flower show".
Hua Xilie was deliberately late. When she arrived, the show girls of other families were almost at the end of the golden avenue.
So much better! The entire Golden Avenue is hers alone!
Both sides of the road were crowded with people. People in the gambling house shuttled back and forth, shouting for people to place bets. Those who have inside information all bought Nie Caiqin, the daughter of the governor of Fu Province. And ordinary people are waiting for "Miss Lin" to appear.
As soon as Hua Xilie's carriage arrived, someone shouted, "Here, Miss Lin is here!" ”
Hua Xilie did not disappoint everyone.
Her beauty is more shocking than a landslide. Words can't describe it enough! I saw her: a pearl-colored flower dress, swaying without wind, shining in the light. Tall and plump, black waterfall-like green silk, long hanging to the ankles; Wearing a white flower crown, the bright and holy flower shadow sets off a peerless face.
The temperament is awe-inspiring, and the skin is deceiving the frost and snow! Just by looking at it, it makes people feel completely surrendered.
She stepped out of the carriage and silenced all sounds around her. Quiet, like a solid wave, gradually covering both sides of the golden avenue. Even the people in the gambling house held their breath and did not dare to shout again.
Where is this woman in the world?! It's clearly a fairy concubine who fell from the sky!
With every step she took, there were celestial beings in the air chanting softly. "Ah...... There is a beautiful woman in the world, ah...... "This is of course a small means of Huaxi Lie's envoy, but to mortals, how shocking it is!"......
Colorful clouds flew in the sky, and hundreds of birds circled. What you see in the field of vision is full of auspiciousness and fragrance. What's even more amazing is that when her chariot walked forward in the fairy music, the sky actually rained petals.
At first, it was just a few pieces, but gradually, the stars scattered like broken jade. In people's field of vision, it has become a gorgeous and romantic fog.
Countless people cried! A small voice, spreading through the crowd, conquered every soul: "The Heavenly Maiden, it is the Heavenly Maiden who descends to earth!" ”
Someone cried and shouted, "God bless the country of wind!" God bless the country of wind, ......"
The crowd on the side of the road all knelt down. In the boiling rain of flowers, the people of the whole capital were collectively stunned, crying for the country of wind and crying for the beauty......
The emperor, who was standing on the walls of the palace and watching, was already in a trembling voice, and asked in a trembling voice, "Whose woman is this?" ”
The eunuch Han Xi said, "Back to Your Majesty, it is said that she is the young lady of the Lin family in Yazhou, Lin Shuo'er." ”
"Lin Shuo'er......" The emperor muttered distractedly, raised his "clairvoyance" again, and looked towards the golden avenue. His hands trembled uncontrollably.
He had endless jealousy and unwillingness in his heart: how could such a peerless beauty not be his woman? No, she should be his! It was given to him by heaven! Being a mere princess, she was wronged too much!
She should be the most noble woman in the Wind Country, and she should enjoy the grace of a true emperor!
The emperor subconsciously glanced at the prince not far away: dressed in a golden python robe, with a rich god jade face, he stood there, handsome and compelling, unparalleled in the world.
The emperor's jealousy and unwillingness reached the point of madness in an instant. In his eyes, a trace of resolute ruthlessness flashed......
The look of the dark sky is as light as in the past. Even the wonder of the flower rain didn't make him very excited. Perhaps, having survived all kinds of hardships since childhood, he has long been accustomed to such a mask when facing outsiders.
However, at this moment, under this mask, he is not without emotion. After all, such an earth-shattering beauty is also something he has never seen in his life. To say that it is not agitated is false.
However, because I knew that it was witchcraft, I was shocked and felt ...... There's an indescribable funny. Several times, he almost laughed! Especially in the heavenly fairy music, the sentence "There is a peerless beauty, and the country and the city are captivated" floated out, which really gave him goosebumps!
This monster is so embarrassing! It's actually this scene! Aren't you afraid that the heavens will rain down divine thunder and split her true form?!
He looked at the appearance of "Lin Shuo'er", and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching slightly.
In the eyes of those who have a heart, the prince is so satisfied with this Miss Lin family.
On the city wall, there are several other royal relatives and nobles: King Wuyi Youzhi, Youruo Ning, who has just been succeeded by the emperor, the queen, and the concubine; In addition, there are also the British Gong, the Jeongkook Gong, the Jing King, the Ryu King, the Pingxi King, the Changtai King and so on.
Everyone's mood is more complicated. On the one hand, I hope that my own woman will win and be elected; On the one hand, I feel that the sky is so auspicious, and I am afraid that it will be against the will of heaven not to choose Miss Lin. Therefore, I feel sad and relieved! It's an indescribable feeling.
However, no one expected that the old emperor, who was close to the age of sixtieth, was sharpening his knife in his heart, and was ready to rob a woman with his own son!
