The moon festival is the most solemn festival in the southern month, and there is no one.

Gu Mo and Yun Xiang were both participating in such a festival for the first time, and they had to sigh that they were so enthusiastic people.

The previous sacrificial ceremonies were presided over by Princess Blue Moon. This time, because it involved the selection of a new priestess, it was first presided over by an official of the Ministry of Rites. The first is for the three candidates to dance for the goddess of the moon.

"We think it's best to ask Princess Blue Moon to dance first. As the original sacrifice, Princess Blue Moon is already familiar with the dance, and she will not be nervous, nor will she need so much time to prepare. The princess and the girl can learn from the dance of the Blue Moon Princess first, and have enough time to prepare. The official of the Ministry of Rites said slowly.

Yun Xiang nodded indifferently, "I don't have any objections, you can do it." ”

The civilian woman nodded dispensably. Although she also hopes that she will be chosen, the two people in front of her are a former priestess and a princess of the previous dynasty, and the other is the current Princess Nan, the most powerful woman in Nanyue. She would not be naïve to think that with her posture and dancing skills, she could defeat the two of them and sit on the throne of the priestess.

This contest seems fair, and let the people of Jeon Nam Moon choose the priestess. But in reality, she doesn't believe that there won't be a dark box operation inside.

Because the clothes worn by the priestess were mainly light and thin, all three of them wore a large cloak over the outside. But just looking at tonight's makeup, it can also be seen that Princess Blue Moon and the civilian woman have put in a lot of effort.

Princess Blue Moon looked at Liu Yunxiang's white and fluorescent skin in the moonlight, long and thick eyelashes like saucer wings, and ruddy and full red lips. I was a little unconvinced. In terms of facial features alone, Liu Yunxiang can't match her beauty at all. But when the two of them stand together, Liu Yunxiang can attract the attention of others without heavy makeup.

She turned to look at the civilian woman again. This woman is only thirteen or fourteen years old. The most rare thing is her pair of rippling autumn pupils, which are watery at all times, obviously a pure and somewhat immature face, but they are still seductive.

Lan Yue sneered in her heart, this is simply a fox! Only her, her beauty is the universal definition of beauty in the eyes of everyone, giving people a solemn beauty that is not impetuous. She was trained from an early age to be a priestess. Deeds. All are strictly instructed.

Blue Moon cocked her chin slightly and slowly walked towards the shore. She took off her shoes, and her cloak slipped to the ground. The pale blue dance dress she was wearing inside was revealed. Her dance costume is custom-made. The power light veil used is not very revealing, but it can show her bewitching figure. The looming beauty of the summary is even more moving.

"Princess Blue Moon's dancing is unmatched in my Nanyue." An official of the clan watched intently at the blue moon dancing skillfully on top of the wooden stake. While sighing in admiration.

Someone next to him chimed in. "Yes, the moon festival comes every year, and what everyone is most looking forward to is seeing the moon festival dance. Princess Blue Moon's dancing is getting more and more exquisite. ”

Lan Yue didn't dare to say that she could dance on the stake with her eyes closed, because the stake was in the water after all, and if the water didn't reach her ankle, she would slip if she wasn't careful. But with her level of proficiency, there is absolutely no one to match.

She completed the sacrifice very smoothly and walked back to the altar proudly in admiration. In addition to the dance costume, he wore a wide-sleeved robe that was worn only by the rituals. Without saying a word, he knelt on top of the cushion, as if everything was in his hands.

Yun Xiang looked at the civilian woman. "Huang Rui, are you first or am I first?"

Huang Rui didn't hesitate at all, "Let's go first, the princess is noble, and the finale is the most suitable." ”

What a bright woman! Yun Xiang smiled and nodded. This astragalus is obviously very smart. After watching Blue Moon's dance, she felt that she must have no chance. After all, how can just a few months of training be worth a few years of hard labor?

Since she didn't have the opportunity to be a priestess, she would go up first, so that her dancing posture would definitely be inferior to that of Princess Blue Moon. It also solved the embarrassment of the princess directly comparing herself with Princess Lanyue.

If the princess dances better than herself, but she doesn't compare to Princess Blue Moon, then she can be regarded as selling face to the princess. If the princess didn't perform well herself, she also accepted her favor, and she would not be dissatisfied because of her excellence.

Huang Rui's dancing posture is more than a step worse than that of Blue Moon. Although she has soft limbs and beautiful appearance, she is not so familiar with the wooden stakes in the water after all. Therefore, when doing some movements with a relatively large amplitude or shifting positions, it seems a little stiff and deliberate. The eyes will always unconsciously turn to the feet, for fear of stepping on the air.

Although the civilian officials have some regrets, they also have to admit that this temporary clinging thing is really a fluke. It's already like this, so it's not forced.

Just after Huang Rui ended, Liangyue, Xueyue, Layue, Fufeng and Fuliu suddenly appeared by the lake with several bamboo baskets. Seeing that the princess nodded slowly, everyone couldn't help but look at each other, what is the princess going to do?

The next moment, the five maids flew up and went directly to the stake, towards the stake closest to the center of the lake.

"What do you mean, princess? Don't you plan to dance, but let a few maids take your place? Princess Blue Moon said with a smile.

Yun Xiang glanced at Lan Yue, not even bothering to speak. When she saw that the girls had already taken their positions, she also headed towards the lake.

Liangyue and the others opened the blue cloth covered by the bamboo basket, and inside was a lotus water lantern. I don't know what the mechanism of this water lantern is, but it just shook it lightly twice and automatically lit the candle inside.

When all the lanterns have entered the water, several people will use their hands to dial the water, and with the push of internal force, all the lotus lanterns will spread out and float in different directions.

And at this time, Yun Xiang had also walked to the lake. She opened her cloak, which drew the amazement of many people. She was wearing a moon-white group of immortals, and she didn't specialize in making dance clothes. The long hair only pulled the sides back of the head, and several unknown gemstone hairpins were inserted on it. The rest hung casually behind them.

The same is to take off the shoes, Yunxiang's white and tender little feet, pink nails, immediately attracted the attention of many people. Many people have noticed that she is wearing several very small jewel-encrusted anklets on her right foot.

Seeing that Yun Xiang had already walked to the water's edge, the five of Liangyue flew back to the shore. Under the expectant gaze of everyone, Yun Xiang's body floated lightly, flying directly towards the center of the lake like a fairy. (To be continued.) )
