"Long live Her Majesty! Longevity without borders! Everyone toasted to the Empress. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The Empress was so pleased that she drank three glasses in a row.

As the spokesperson of the empress of Ji Kingdom, the sixth princess naturally stepped forward to congratulate her at this time and said a bunch of auspicious words.

The empress asked the sixth princess: "I intend to marry Ji Guo, I wonder if Ji Guo also has this intention?" After speaking, the empress's gaze drifted to Fusang and Ji Qiran, intentionally or unintentionally.

Ji Qiran was stunned in his heart, and couldn't help but clench the wine glass in his hand.

The sixth princess smiled and said, "This is nature. The marriage between the two countries will surely further bring the friendly relations between the Yuezhi country and the Ji country closer, which is really a good thing that cannot be sought. ”

When the empress heard this, she laughed: "In this way, it can be regarded as a consensus. ”

At this time, Wu Yue, who was beside the empress, leaned over and reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the auspicious time is approaching. ”

The Empress immediately looked up at the sky...... At this moment, the moon is already high and will soon become a large and round full moon. She cleared her throat and solemnly said to everyone, "Today, in addition to celebrating my birthday, there is another extremely important thing to decide at the moment. ”

Suddenly, everyone stopped, quietly listening to what the Empress was going to say next.

"I am old, so I want to ask the snake god to choose the successor to the throne for me today." As soon as the empress's words fell, the people below were boiling.

The three princesses of the Yuezhi Kingdom all looked at the Empress and Wuyue in surprise, because even they didn't know in advance that the Empress was going to choose an heir in public today, and they didn't know how Wuyue would plan to invite the snake god......

The six princesses, Chu Qingluo and Ji Qiran looked at each other. This can be said to be a first-class major event in the Yuezhi Country, but it is not decided by Her Majesty the Empress herself?!

When everyone was holding their breath and concentrating, Wu Yue nodded slightly, and an entourage walked over. He carried three small vessels made of gold, silver, and bronze, and a sharp dagger beside him. Immediately afterwards, three more attendants stood aside holding three rabbits of different colors, white, brown, and black.

Wu Yue said, "There are three princesses invited. ”

The princesses walked up to Utsuki with blank faces, and Utsuki first asked them to choose a rabbit as they wished.

The three princesses didn't bother with it, and they were quickly chosen. The begonias chose the white one, the narcissus chose the black one, and the remaining brown one was the Fuso.

After they had chosen the rabbit, Wuyue picked up the dagger, stretched out her hand to Begonia and said, "Please Princess Begonia to donate blood to the snake god to show her sincerity." ”

When Haitang heard this, she was slightly stunned at first, and then after seeing the empress's nod, she mustered up her courage and stretched out her hand.

Wu Yue was still expressionless, and quickly swiped the dagger on the soft palm of the begonia...... I saw Begonia's eyebrows twisted, and a bright red blood dripped into the small gold vessel.

Next, the blood of Narcissus and Fuso was also put into small silver and copper containers in this way.

The attendant picked up the three fluffy rabbits and put their tails into each of the three bloody vessels to stain them. The tail of the white rabbit is stained with the blood of begonias, the tail of the black rabbit is stained with the blood of narcissus, and the tail of the gray rabbit is stained with the blood of Fuso.

Under the gaze of everyone, the rabbits chosen by the princesses corresponded to their blood one by one, and it was clear at a glance.

Seeing that everything was ready, Wuyue stepped forward. He held the staff in one hand, raised the other slightly, palm facing up, and the sharp long armor looked more and more strange in the silver moonlight.

His eyes were closed, and after three powerful blows with the wooden staff in his hand, a series of earth-shattering hiss came out of his mouth, as if he was calling to the heavens......

Strange to say, as soon as his incantation fell, a large dark cloud quickly obscured the moon. At this moment, a flat-headed green snake hissed its slender pointed tongue, slowly poked its head out of the wide-sleeved robe of the hand that Wu Yue raised slightly, and entrenched itself in his palm.

Wuyue bowed down and leaned down his palm. The green snake's crooked body came from his hands to the ground.

"Like a serpent god giving blood—"

With Wuyue's order, the entourage placed the three rabbits with the princess's blood stained tail in front of the green snake.

After touching the ground, the rabbit jumped in all directions.

The green snake writhed its scaly body unhurriedly and quietly approached the rabbits.

The white rabbit jumps the farthest, and the black rabbit and the gray rabbit are located relatively closely. The green snake stopped abruptly as it crawled between the black and gray rabbits, and it raised its head and kept swallowing the letter. Half a ring, but didn't move again.

When everyone thought that the green snake had no choice, and looked at the black moon with a brush, it suddenly shook its head, and without hesitation, opened its bloody mouth at the gray rabbit and pounced fiercely!

At this moment, everyone was shocked......

Wu Yue shouted, "The snake god has been chosen, thank you to the snake god!" After speaking, he also bowed to the green snake.

Seeing this, the rest of the people of the Yuezhi Kingdom also followed suit and saluted: "Thank you Snake God!" ”

At this time, Wuyue turned to the empress and said, "Your Majesty, the snake god has chosen Princess Fusang as the heir to the throne for my Otsuki branch!" Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty! ”

"Okay!" The Empress was slightly agitated and said loudly, "I have announced that Fusang will immediately become my heir to the throne!" ”

"Congratulations to Princess Fuso!" There were people clapping and cheering.

But Fusang himself was still stunned, and he couldn't come back to his senses at all.

Haitang walked over first, patted her shoulder gently, and said, "Little sister, why don't you thank you quickly?" ”

"Yes...... But ......" Fuso seemed a little overwhelmed.

"The Mother-!" Narcissus took the lead and said, "My little sister has not given birth to a daughter, how can she be eligible to inherit the throne?" ”

As far as the current situation is concerned, Begonia and Narcissus have both given birth to daughters, but Fuso has not yet appeared. But he still chose Fusang to inherit the throne, which obviously made Narcissus very unhappy.

"Your mother, the emperor, didn't I give birth to a begonia at the age of forty?" The empress glanced at the black moon and said firmly: "The snake god will never choose the wrong one. ”

......The expression on Narcissus' face was very stiff at the moment, but it was irrefutable.

If you want to question whether Utsuki did something deliberately at this time, it is not an easy task. After all, in full view of everyone, the rabbit was chosen by her and Begonia first, and the blood was still contained in different vessels......

"Wait!" Narcissus suddenly said, "Bring the vessel of blood and look at it." ”

The attendant with the utensils glanced at the empress, and after receiving the empress's approval, handed the thing over.

Narcissus picked up the small utensils one by one, looked at them one by one, sniffed them closer, and even scraped the inner walls of the utensils with his fingernails...... But nothing was gained! (To be continued.) )
