The guard of honor opens the way, the idlers avoid, the pomp and circumstance, and the exquisite!

The Imperial Forest Army lined up, blocking the entry and exit venues, the eunuchs of the ceremonies sang, and Wu Zetian appeared on the stage under the embrace of the jade brocade canopy.

Everyone said that long live kneeling, and she waved her hand lazily, signaling that she didn't care about the details.

Of course, no one was so stupid as to stand up, and only after the eunuch sang again did he get up in turn.

"I heard that there was a bird beauty contest today, but it was rare, so I came to see it...... Yi Zhi, Taiping, come here, talk to me, alas, young people's things, old, I really can't understand them. ”

Li Ran crooked his mouth and sneered, this is a bluff for a three-year-old child.

When the Son of Heaven leaves the palace, he must clean the official road, sprinkle water and incense, and he can't save a single step of the process.

Therefore, Wu Zetian definitely came deliberately...... For auspiciousness!

Obviously, she wants to take this opportunity to make the newly acquired 'Phoenix' public, so that the people of the city can see how true she is.

“…… It's really a sassy old woman. ”

The evaluation is fair and objective, but fortunately, Li Ran is used to determining the champion or something.

The competition began soon, after the participating birds appeared, won full applause, according to the ranking, Li Ran presented perfume and beauty cream, which became the highlight of the scene.

However, by the end of the race, the top spot was still empty.

With Wu Zetian coming, people who are as good as Princess Taiping immediately understood the tone of today's event.

"Your Majesty, now that the sea is calm, the Quartet is stable, and the courtiers often hear that there will be good signs for the sages."

"My child is well-behaved, I often think about the sages, work hard, and dare not have a trace of slackness, but coincidentally, a few days ago, there was really a strange thing to send an auspicious rui, it is said to be a fairy phoenix, today I saw all kinds of rare birds, just let you also see, yes and no."

is worthy of two mothers and daughters, singing and cooperating beautifully.

The Bird of Paradise was carried out by the attendants...... Dressed in an extremely luxurious manner, even the birdcage is pure gold, and with its dazzling feathers, it instantly becomes the focus of attention!

"How, this is a fairy bird phoenix?"

Wu Zetian asked, no one in the audience could answer, after all, who had ever seen that thing, the crime of bullying the king should be beheaded.

But Li Ran had to answer...... He wanted to be a passerby, but Wu Zetian's eyes were aimed at him as if he was nothing, and he instantly understood the meaning of her question.

Auspicious and ominous, said by her own mouth, and held up by the people below, the meaning is different!

“…… Your Majesty, the grass people are rough with birds and beasts, this bird must be a fairy bird and a phoenix. ”

Therefore, Li Ran stood up and said loudly, "Who in the world does not know the emperor's sage, even the fairy birds have landed in the world, this is a great auspicious omen, just ask, all the birds in the world, who can compare to the fairy birds, the first place in this competition, must be the emperor you!" ”

Hurry up and wear a tall hat, the higher the better.

"Yes! The emperor, such an auspicious omen, the courtiers think that they can make the scholars of the Hanlin Academy compose poems to congratulate him. ”

Princess Taiping is definitely a god teammate, and before Li Ran's words fell, she came to a god assist.

"Okay, good, it's rare that you have a heart." , Wu Zetian smiled with satisfaction, she enjoyed the admiration of the audience very much, it is foreseeable that not only the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, but also the historian will make a special book about this matter, this kind of routine of the emperor putting gold on his face, understand in seconds.

Li Ran breathed a long sigh of relief, no matter what, it was going well, a lot of silver was about to arrive, cool!

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this matter is up for discussion."

Suddenly, an unusually disobedient voice sounded in the field, Li Ran was so angry that his nose was crooked, which one of the sideways branches without eyesight, can he do something when his brother is successful and retired!

Annoyed followed the prestige, but it was an old man with a half-white beard who walked out of the crowd.

is full of vigor and looks calm in official uniforms, and it seems that he has a lot of background...... In fact, after Wu Zetian saw him, he actually suppressed his anger and accompanied him with a smiling face.

"It turned out to be my good prime minister, Cambodia, why are you here today?"

Li Ran was slightly stunned, he was Zhang Khan Zhi...... This old man is notoriously long-lived, and he only became a prime minister in his seventies, a typical late bloomer.

"When I went down to the court, I happened to pass by here, and I saw the emperor's carriage and horses here, so I came to take a look."

Zhang Khan Zhi's expression is not good, "The minister thinks that this bird is not a phoenix, the mountains and seas are said, there are birds, its shape is like a chicken, the five colors are written, the name is called Fenghuang, the first text is said to be de, the wing text is said to be righteous, the back text is said to be lily, the text is said to be benevolent, and the belly text is said to be letter." It is a bird, eats naturally, sings and dances by itself, and the world is peaceful when you see it...... This bird has a gorgeous appearance, but there is no phoenix, it is a bird's ears. ”

This old thing, here to lift the bar?

Li Ran was secretly angry, and of course, soon found that he had thought wrong...... He is not qualified enough to be barred.

"Xin Xiangrui and the early dynasty, this unvirtuous way, pro-playthings and far courtiers, this mediocre monarch also, His Majesty recently favored the harem, the days of the early dynasty have become increasingly rare, and now obsessed with pets, how to deal with the government? There are Turks in the north, Tubo in the west, how can this world be called a peaceful and prosperous world, please think twice, don't forget to think about the sages, and work hard, it is really a good omen for my Tang Dynasty. ”

Look, if you want a bar, you have to bar the big guy, this surname is Zhang, awesome.

Wu Zetian's face turned white, didn't he slap her in the face publicly, and he was on the platform to such an extent.

“…… Prime Minister, as you said, the auspicious fortune of the past dynasties, what are the three emperors and five emperors, aren't they all fake? Princess Taiping acted as a thug again, and said angrily, "My mother loves the people like a son, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, although Yao Shun is nothing more than that, you speak falsely, and you destroy my royal dignity, and your crime should be punished!" ”

This little padded jacket is absolutely velveted, Wu Zetian is inconvenient to reprimand Zhang Cambodia, Princess Taiping has no scruples.

"Two, please let the villain speak."

The gods fought, the fish pond exploded, as the initiator of the beauty pageant, something really happened, Li Ran definitely couldn't eat and walk.

"The auspicious omen, recorded in the history books, no one has seen it but word of mouth, now the emperor has a phoenix auspicious, this is the will of God, or, take this opportunity to do a small activity, pray for the people or something, highlight the emperor's holy virtue, what do you think?"

The best way to eliminate an unsolvable topic is to create a new topic, this routine, Li Ran is playing a thief.

Besides, praying for the blessings of the people is a good thing, and I can't find a thorn in it...... Wrong, he can not only pick thorns, but also pick uplifting words!

"How ridiculous! Is it child's play for the Son of Heaven to pray for blessings, he will burn incense and bathe to show piety, and this place of entertainment and frolic divination and blessing is insulting to the gods. ”

“…… Lord Zhang, have you seen the gods? ”

Li Ran was really angry, he obviously gave you a maid and put his face up to find a beating.

"I haven't seen it."

"Then why did Lord Zhang say that if we pray for blessings today, it will insult the gods? If you want me to say, the gods love to join in the fun, and they love to see the frolicking scene of our peaceful and prosperous Tang Dynasty. ”

"You! Ridiculous, the erector is not enough and conspiracy! ”

“…… So, how about we make a bet? Li Ran laughed angrily and stared at the other party's eyes, "If I invite the vision of the gods today, Lord Zhang knelt down on the street and said three times, 'I am an old stubborn', if I can't invite the vision of the gods, I will donate all the money earned in today's game to the imperial court to repair the river embankment and do a good thing for the people, how can I dare to gamble." ”
