The six princesses first introduced the identities of Ji Qiran and Chu Qingluo to the empress of the Yuezhi Kingdom, and then presented the empress with the congratulatory gifts they brought from the Ji Kingdom. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Each of the congratulatory gifts mentioned by the six princesses was carried to the palace in order to be displayed. While the sixth princess introduced the congratulatory gifts to the empress, Chu Qingluo secretly glanced at the other people in the hall......

Among the people present, there were princesses and female officials, but the most eye-catching was a middle-aged man standing beside the empress.

He had a bunch of relatively frizzy braids on his head, a dark complexion, and a pair of vulture-like eyes. His thin lips were tightly closed, and his expression was very serious, with a sense of distance and mystery all over his body. Even more particularly, he holds a black cane inlaid with red gemstones. The fingers on the cane have distinct joints, and the nails are still sharp and sharp.

This made Chu Qingluo gasp. Judging by the appearance of this middle-aged man, it is obvious that he is a priest and wizard or something.

However, the Yuezhi Kingdom will actually reuse men, and his position is still on the side of the empress. Presumably, this person must not be simple......

After the congratulatory gifts were all displayed, the Empress of the Yuezhi Kingdom began to introduce these people in the main hall to the six princesses.

The empress first pointed to the two women who were closer to the throne and said, "This is my eldest daughter Begonia, and this is my second daughter Narcissus. ”

The sixth princess saluted them politely and said, "Anyang has seen two princesses. ”

"Princess Anyang is very polite."

Princess Begonia nodded respectfully in return, while Princess Narcissus nodded while her fingers did not forget to play with her big braids.

Fusang also roughly mentioned these two sisters to them before, saying that Princess Begonia has excellent medical skills and likes to tinker with various herbs day and night, while Princess Narcissus is good at martial arts and often takes people up the mountain to hunt.

Now that I see the two princesses, it is really obvious that there is no movement, which is completely consistent with Fusang's description.

After the greetings were over, the empress nodded at the person beside her and said, "This is the high priest Wuyue." ”

As Chu Qingluo guessed, this unsmiling man was indeed a character like the High Priest of the Yuezhi Kingdom.

The high priest's status in the Yuezhi Kingdom is second only to the empress, and he only obeys the empress's orders. In other words, he is the highest-ranking man in the entire Yuezhi country, and even the princess cannot shake his status.

Chu Qingluo couldn't help but stare at him in a trance, he was too curious about his ability. Judging from his appearance and equipment alone, he should be much more advanced than Yu Fei, right?

Wu Yue immediately sensed the gaze from Chu Qingluo, and his sharp gaze swept over suddenly.

Chu Qingluo avoided it instantly, because his gaze gave people a chilling feeling. It's like a vulture, staring at its prey.

……

After coming out of the main hall, Fusang took the six princesses and the three of them to the specially arranged palace to bathe and rest, and then reminded them to remember to attend the dinner party at night, and left first.

The palace arranged for them is very large, with four dormitories in the south, east, west, and northwest, and the three of them live in it, which is more than enough.

At this time, Ji Qiran suddenly asked the sixth princess a question that Chu Qingluo was also very curious about. "I really didn't expect the high priest of the Yuezhi Kingdom to be a man?"

The sixth princess said: "The current Empress of the Yue Branch is not the successor appointed by the previous emperor. Before she was forty years old, she gave birth to a baby boy, and finally gave birth to the only baby girl, but unfortunately she did not live past half a year. Therefore, the younger sister, who already had two daughters at that time, inherited the throne without any suspense, and she was assigned to a fief. ”

"Oh?" Ji Qiran was slightly taken aback, and said, "Then is it ...... now?"

Chu Qingluo guessed that what Ji Qiran wanted to say but didn't say should be the words 'seeking power and usurping the throne'.

"On the face of it, it's not." The sixth princess also guessed what Ji Qiran thought, smiled lightly, and continued: "When the empress was forty years old, she met Wuyue in the fiefdom. It is rumored that this black moon has the ability to communicate with the gods, and cast a spell to make the empress give birth to three baby girls in a row within a few years, which is the three princesses today. ”

“…… So godly? Chu Qingluo couldn't help but blurt out, but there was a little doubt in his tone.

The sixth princess ignored her surprise, and continued: "It's strange to say, when the empress gave birth to the first princess Begonia, her sister who inherited the throne suddenly died suddenly in a dream, and even the two little princesses died of illness in the same year...... After that, the empress naturally returned to Zhaocheng from the fiefdom and inherited the throne. ”

Ji Qiran said: "There is such a story about the empress of the branch country today. It's incredible...... No, it should be said, is this too much of a coincidence? ”

The sixth princess smiled meaningfully and said, "This should be Wuyue's ability. Anyway, now in the Yuezhi country, Wuyue is the number one person. ”

"Sixth sister...... I'm a little worried about Xiao Yu'er's safety. ”

Compared with the story of the empress of the Yuezhi Kingdom and the high priest Wuyue, Ji Qiran suddenly worried about Xiao Yu'er, who was far away in the Ji Kingdom, that is, the daughter of the sixth princess who was less than one year old.

Although the sixth princess also made full preparations before leaving, it was also false to say that she was not worried at all. "Xiao Yu'er is personally taken care of by the Holy Lord...... It should be fine. ”

Seeing that their sister and brother were discussing such a private topic, Chu Qingluo felt that it didn't seem good for him to be an outsider, so he said embarrassedly: "Princess Anyang, if there is nothing to do, I will go back to the dormitory first." ”

"You go and rest first." The sixth princess didn't force her to stay, and nodded with a light smile. After Chu Qingluo left, she said to Ji Qiran again: "Since we have come all the way to the Yuezhi Country, I really want to meet this Wuyue." ”

"But he is the high priest of the Yuezhi Kingdom, how does the sixth sister plan to invite him?" Ji Qiran asked.

The sixth princess raised her eyebrows slightly, and said, "So I can only invite it openly." ”

……

Fusang specially prepared the costumes of the Yuezhiguo for the six princesses and the three of them, and asked them to wear the colorful clothes of the Yuezhiguo to attend the dinner tonight.

Ji Qiran has never been so bright and colorful. At the moment, this gorgeous colorful dress made him extremely uncomfortable. And Chu Qingluo and the sixth princess are okay, they can accept this kind of colorful clothes very well, and they even dress very well. Compared with the women of Yuezhi country, they are fairer-skinned, ruddy and shiny.

When Chu Qingluo saw Ji Qiran appear with a poker face, she almost burst out laughing, but fortunately she used her strong willpower to hold back. Although he is still quite handsome, he always feels bells and whistles...... It's weird anyway. (To be continued.) )
