Chapter 36 Defeated, but also a foil
I hugged her excitedly, but she pushed me away in disgust and said, "I know that you are stupid and can't find my whereabouts, but fortunately, I inquired about your whereabouts before, and I came to see you this time." It's still the familiar "orange-style poisonous tongue", but I unexpectedly love to listen to it.
"What, I passed, didn't you expect me to be so stupid and be able to pass the test?" I said to myself. "You've said everything, okay, I'm going to leave if you're okay. After saying that, she was about to turn around and take off, but I quickly grabbed his wrist and said, "I haven't practiced for a long time, let's practice once." โ
"Okay, it's up to you." With that, she dragged me to a hidden place. "Wow, this place is nice, secluded and vast and there are no people yet." "That's~" You can hear a rare smug in her tone. "Here, show how well you've practiced your dragon darts." She continued.
"Okay." After saying that, I picked up a small pebble and threw it at her with a warrant, but I didn't expect it to hit her, provided that she didn't give up her life to dodge. "Not bad." She rarely praised me, and I shook my body in a very sรจ posture.
Seeing me so happy, she took out a real dragon dart from her waist and handed it to me and said, "Let's try it, although it is not easy for beginners like you, but do you want to try it?" I smiled and took it, aiming at her as she was about to fly out. She hurriedly said, "Don't face me." When I heard this, I turned and flew out of one of the fruit trees.
Of course, I hit it again, is it really an explosion of character, I jumped up, yelling for her to give me another dart to play with. She quit and took me back to where I was supposed to sleep.
"Stopped practicing?" I pursed my lips and said, she didn't pay attention to me and flew away. Hey, it's this kind of person who has martial arts and is still scared. I continued to lurk back in the room and fell asleep, not noticing that a pair of eyes behind me had loaded my actions into the memory chip.
Early in the morning, yesterday's palace maid came to inform us of today's itinerary as scheduled, and it turned out that it was the queen mother and the emperor who were going to meet today. When we heard these two prestigious names, we were all looking forward to it, and the woman in them staggered to the ground because she was afraid of the unstable legs of the emperor.
I wanted to reach out to help her, but when I saw that face turned out to be the woman who stepped on me yesterday, I withdrew my hand, you better get up by yourself. Before she could fully stand up, the palace maid changed her expression and said, "You don't have to get up, you can go home by yourself, so bold is needless to say." The woman who collapsed on the ground was like a world away, her hands trembling, as if she didn't know what to say.
My "little hatred in my heart" is solved, but at the same time, I feel sad for her, those who want to stay can't stay, and those who don't want to stay have to stay. The other two girls and I all looked at the woman on the ground who had failed miserably, and we were just speechless.
"Three girls, you go with Bennu to face the saint." When the words fell, we followed her. "Why, why, how do they match." The woman who had been temporarily eliminated was still whispering and screaming in place, and she was also a pathetic person.
We have seen all the superb scenery before we arrived at the Zhengyang Palace, and only then did we have the immediate sense of a gorgeous palace. There are golden points of light everywhere, even the beams of the house are carved with delicate dragon patterns and phoenixes, and even the ground we are stepping on is covered with thick soft wool mats, which is not ordinary at first glance.
On the top of the main hall sat a middle-aged man in a brocade costume and a dragon, and from his face, I seemed to have a holistic understanding of wisdom and calmness. And the person sitting next to him, with his elegant but bright face, made me understand what it means to have an aura that is difficult to hide.
The two people who were traveling together also seemed to be intimidated by their momentum, and their expressions were simply copies of mine? "Kneel down and greet the Queen of Heaven and the Emperor." One of the chamberlains said to us, and our minds turned a little, and we quickly knelt down, and said the words of worship in our mouths.
No one had taught me the ritual of kneeling before, and my qualifications were naturally not as dignified and beautiful as them, just like asking for red envelopes and kowtowing to thank me at Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. "Get up, get up, let the mourners see you." A gentle and quiet voice came from the main hall.
We don't dare to move more, for fear that this is another test question? The person who gets up first is impatient and will be defeated? "Hurry up." The kind-eyed man in the hall said again, and the male character on the side also responded: "The queen mother has spoken, get up." โ
We slowly got up and looked good. "Queen Mother, this time I want to choose a concubine for Rui'er, but I want you to check more." The man in the dragon robe in the palace asked. "Naturally, the relatives of the emperor and grandson of the mourning family must choose an excellent candidate." The queen said with a smile.
"The mourning family only has one question, and you will be tested for your talents." The Queen Mother said twilightly. "Yes, Queen Mother." Fortunately, the first two people will say, and I reluctantly agreed, saying that this ancient saying is really tongue-twisting.
"Listen, what can turn the world upside down, who can control the world, this thing must be false, and this person must also be false." After the Queen Mother finished speaking, she looked at us meaningfully. First, a woman seized the opportunity to ask for instructions and replied: "What can be reversed is time, and it is fate that controls the world." โ
"Okay, yes, what do the other two think?" The emperor also clapped his hands and participated in this trial. The other replied from the woman with beautiful eyes who had warned me about her recklessness last time. I saw her say unhurriedly and orderly: "The people who turn the world upside down are determined, and it is the people's will who controls the world." โ
These passionate words came out of the mouth of a weak female streamer without being abrupt, but they had a sense of pride. The smile on the queen mother's face was even worse, and the emperor also showed a look of admiration. I'm blindsided, it's my turn to speak so soon, ah, uh, I haven't thought about it yet, forget it, just say it, death will die.
I cleared my throat and said, "Faith and **, respectively." When these words came out, the Queen Mother actually got up and said, "Okay, it's all excellent." "I breathed a sigh of relief, I thought that the Queen Mother suddenly got up to take my life."
"Which of these three does the emperor think is more suitable for Rui'er?" "What does the Queen Mother think?" The mother and son were huddled together to discuss the right candidate. After a while, the emperor spoke: "I and the Queen Mother have decided to discuss after much thought, and think...... Shen Aiqing's daughter Shen Chi is more suitable for the choice of the princess. โ
Well, he was defeated, but it was expected, but who is this Shen Chi? I looked at the two beside me with a look of confusion, one woman had no expression on her face, and the other had a smile on the corner of her mouth, and I had the answer, sure enough, she was not a simple person.
"The courtier Shen Chi thanked the emperor and the queen mother, long live the emperor, long live the queen mother, and the queen mother is a thousand years old." After speaking, she bowed down quite politely.
"Get up." The Queen Mother was still so gentle and quiet, so she got up and stood aside dignifiedly.
Hey, after the election, can we retreat, I am waiting for someone to take us away, but I have not waited for a long time. The two people in the palace didn't give an order or anything, but they seemed to be discussing something with their faces close to their faces.
Hey, the big brother of the royal family doesn't have any logical thinking at all, so let's just dry it here. I looked at the two people showing family affection in the hall like a single Wang, and I whimpered for a while.
