Chapter 2 and the Rites

The "Qingwan Palace" is lit up everywhere, which can be said to be the most prosperous and beautiful place in the entire palace.

The day of the ceremony soon came.

Mo Yanqi, the prince of the Southern Martyrdom, was sent by his parents to the "Qingwan Palace" early in the morning to do the matter, and an hour before the ceremony, Mo Qingwan had not yet appeared, so the hard-working Mo Yanqi was sent to call her again.

Mo Yanqi knocked on the door without any gentlemanly temperament, and Mo Qingwan opened the door in the sound of urging knocks again and again: "Why is the imperial brother so anxious?" ”

"You're too embarrassed to ask! Father and Queen Mother are reluctant to let you work hard, so they insist on asking me to handle this ceremony for you, and ask me to call you, and the ceremony is about to begin, you better prepare quickly, how can the ceremony be missing the protagonist? The people are waiting to see you. ”

"Look at me?"

"Look what their princess looks like!" Mo Yanqi said angrily.

"Brother Huang, don't worry, I'll go out immediately."

"Hurry up, I'll wait for you outside."

Mo Qingwan closed the door and began to dress up.

Mo Yanqi, who was waiting anxiously outside the door, heard the sound of the door opening, turned around to look, and saw that her sister, who had not been freshened up a quarter of an hour ago, had changed into a peach-pink dress.

It's just that she still has a mask on her face that covers half of her face, a golden mask with a lifelike phoenix engraved on it, revealing only a pair of smart eyes and pink lips.

Mo Yanqi's handsome face was full of doubts: "What are you doing with a mask?" ”

Mo Qing smiled gracefully: "I have my own usefulness." ”

Seeing that his sister was so mysterious, Mo Yanqi didn't want to ask much, but just dragged Mo Qingwan to return to his father and queen mother.

When they arrived at the main hall of "Qingwan Palace", most of the guests had already arrived.

Mo Yanqi bent down and saluted Emperor Nan Yan and the Empress who were sitting on the main seat in front of the hall: "The son has seen the father and the queen mother. ”

"Qingwan has seen her father, queen mother, and queen." Although in this world, her name is Mo Qingyou, and she is called Princess Qingwan, but she always feels that it is a little strange to be called her sister's name, so the people close to her call her title.

But the gaze of the two favored female mad demons, Emperor Nan and the Empress, directly crossed Mo Yanqi and fell on Mo Qingwan.

The queen asked, "What is Wan'er doing with the mask?" ”

"Wan'er has a reason, and I ask the queen mother to be calm."

When the time came, the guests took their seats, a piece of pipa made the guests intoxicated, after the pipa, a woman dressed in white slowly walked up to the stage, holding a jade flute in her hand, walked to the center of the stage, a melodious flute sounded.

Everyone was fascinated by what they heard, and they didn't notice that Mo Qingwan, who was wearing a mask, quietly left the venue.

The last flute sounded, and two columns of dancers in dark dresses entered, and behind them was a woman in a white dress embroidered with delicate patterns.

The silk and bamboo played, the dancers accompanied the elegant dance, gradually formed a circle, the woman stood in the center, the beautiful dancing, with the pleasant music, really intoxicating.

At the end of the dance, the guests were still unsatisfied, and the woman in the middle suddenly saluted: "Qingwan will dedicate this 'stepping snow' to the father and queen mother." ”

Emperor Nan Yan asked, "You made up this dance yourself?" ”

"Back to my father, this dance was made up by Qingwan herself, and the song was written with the help of a court musician."

"Yes, yes! Someone, present me with the gift I prepared for the princess! ”

Several palace maids stepped forward, presented the things in their hands to the front of the hall, and showed them to Mo Qingwan one by one.

It was some gold and silver jewelry, but two things caught her eye.

One is a mask made of white jade, which is different from her own, and is engraved with several flowers that seem to have life, the legendary flower of hell - the flower of the other side.

The other is a jade whistle, with extremely fine workmanship, which is also carved with flowers from the other side.

Mo Qingwan was a little puzzled: "Father, this ......"

"This is a token of the Guardian of the Other Side, which I have been planning since you were a child. The other side means the flowers of hell, which makes people fearful, and I will be relieved to have them to protect you. ”

Mo Qingwan didn't know what to say about this gift, so she had to respond first: "Thank you for your father's reward." ”。

The guests looked at each other, Emperor Nan really loved this princess.
