Chapter Seventy-Three: Exploring the Truth and Fiction (I)

"Since my majesty the queen of Fengling country ascended the throne, my majesty the emperor has been careful for the sake of the country, God is grateful for the merits of my queen Fengling, and finally in the Kaiye period so that my emperor gave birth to a phoenix girl, my emperor Fengyan is happy, immediately gave the fifth phoenix girl as the queen daughter, gratifying and congratulating, my Fengling country five emperors and princesses are gifted and intelligent, but since childhood poor health, has been raised by our empress in the library for several years, now coincides with my Fengling five emperors and daughters fifteen years of adulthood, God bless me Fengling country, my five emperors and princesses are cured, and now from the world, To assist Her Majesty the Empress in his achievements, he specially invited envoys from various countries to attend the coming-of-age ceremony and the ceremony of the five empresses of our country. ”

Xiao Shunzi carried a breath of encouragement and high-spiritedness, and recited the full text of the speech written by Her Majesty the Empress word for word, during which the tone was high-spirited, suppressed and frustrated, without the femininity of a man, but gave birth to a little bit of rigidity, Luo Sheng looked at Her Majesty the Empress sitting on a high seat, she had a smile on her face, and seemed to be very satisfied with Xiao Shunzi's speech. She was dressed more flamboyantly than usual today, the phoenix robe was newly made, and the beaded curtain crown on her head was adorned with more gems than the crown she wore in the past, showing her wealth. Luo Sheng first saw her fifteen years ago, she should not be too old at that time, her face was bright, very beautiful, fifteen years later, she seems to be much older, those deliberately hidden white hair and fine lines at the corners of her eyes prove that she is no longer young, but she gives people the feeling that her majesty is getting more and more, and the empress's posture is better than before.

Luo Sheng stood about fifty meters away from the hall of Cheng'en Palace, because she was practicing otherworldly techniques, her vision was more sensitive than that of ordinary people, and her eyes could clearly see the scene in the hall through the gap between the group of ceremonial officials in front of her who surrounded her with huge fans.

"The Fifth Imperial Lady, it's time for us to go in, first we have to walk in the morning dew, and then we have gone through the envoys of various countries..."

"I remember Mozhu, don't worry, I won't be wrong." Mo Zhu next to him wanted to ask something, but Luo Sheng planned it.

"Let's go." Luo Sheng stretched out his slender hand, and Mo Zhu was stunned for a moment and shook Luo Sheng's hand back.

It's eight thirty o'clock in the morning, and Luo Sheng has to step on the Cheng'en Hall where the empress is located before nine o'clock, and put on the crown of the coming-of-age ceremony prepared for her by Her Majesty the Empress, and if you want to get to that point, you must pass the levels prepared before, and only after passing these levels can you really pass the threshold of the coming-of-age ceremony.

In fact, the coming-of-age ceremony of Fengling Country is not complicated for ordinary people, but who let her choose to be born in the royal family, and be admired by the world, she must go through the secular test, so that she can bear the name of the five emperors and daughters of Fengling.

Luo Sheng walked past the two rows of people who supported and fanned with Mo Zhu's hand and left them behind, and the princes and nobles in the hall just now and the envoys sent by various countries were lined up on both sides of the stone road paved with red carpets.

Luo Sheng has not participated in Her Majesty's court meeting, and he doesn't know which people are his own courtiers and which are envoys, and he can clearly distinguish the factions of these people thanks to Her Majesty's orders. It was only at this time that Luo Sheng understood Her Majesty's good intentions, perhaps, she not only let the Manchu civil and military wear festive clothes to celebrate herself, but she was worried that she had never been to the court, and she did not know her own courtiers and envoys from other countries and made jokes.

Thinking of this relationship, Luo Sheng looked up at the empress who had been staring at her side in the distance, and saw a different kind of deep meaning in the corners of her gentle mouth.

It was an ordinary mother's love for her child.

When this sentence popped up in Luo Sheng's mind, she subconsciously lowered her head, and it was also at this moment that infinite guilt swelled in her heart. If she didn't have a soul to cross over, such a proud woman might not bother with her business.

But this is also Luo Sheng's thoughts for a moment, she quickly adjusted her mentality, not to let such negative emotions dominate herself, she told herself that people are selfish, she has her purpose, Biluo she can't sympathize with anyone.

Luo Sheng thought so, raised his head again, and met the empress's gaze with a frank face, but the empress did not look at her this time, but whispered something to Xiao Shunzi beside her.

Luo Sheng instantly felt that half of her burden was removed, she put her mind on the matter in front of her, she supported Mo Zhu's hand with one hand, and secretly dragged the clothes on her body with the other hand to reduce the weight on her body.

The dress that Luo Sheng is wearing now is made by Her Majesty the Empress invited forty-eight embroiderers who are best at embroidering and embellishing clothes, Luo Sheng has never seen how the forty-eight of them put their hands on a piece of clothing, but just listening to the words forty-eight shocked her, forty-eight people, each strung a gem on it can crush her to death, not to mention that it is not just as simple as wearing gems.

The waiters who had just brought her with the ink bamboo helped her get dressed for a long time, and Luo Sheng sighed that such a strange cloth was not like cotton and linen, not like silk, but like the feathers of some kind of bird, but what kind of bird had so many feathers, and the color was so strange, red like fire. Luo Sheng felt that he was a master of birds, and he didn't see what kind of bird it was, and he always felt that the red feathers and the Qingling costume embellished with countless treasures were a little strange.

In the previous life, the Biluo family was still white, but the people here liked red, it was really a kind of rice to raise a hundred kinds of people, and even the customs were so strange.

Luo Sheng was slowly dragging Qingling's clothes while thinking about when and how to end this strange coming-of-age ceremony early, her hand pulling her clothes was a little uncomfortable, and she couldn't help but think of the wind and rain.

The two brothers didn't know what was going on, the rain said that the wind was uncomfortable, and she ran out when she was changing clothes, she was also busy today, and she didn't ask what was wrong, and the two of them didn't appear at this time, which was really strange.

"The five princesses, the sons have offended." A nervous voice came from beside him.

Luo Sheng didn't care, she put her hands in front of her in front of her little maid who was so nervous that she was about to faint while thinking about the wind and rain.

The maid couldn't help but become more nervous after seeing Luo Sheng calmly stretch out his hand, and he subconsciously swept Luo Sheng's hands with the wicker on his hand.

Luo Sheng came back from his thoughts, looked at the little maid, and knew that he was too nervous, so he reminded in a low voice: "Relax, dip in morning dew." ”

This servant realized that he didn't even clean his hands with morning dew to the Fifth Emperor Lady, it shouldn't be, he hurriedly dipped some morning dew from the shallow basin with gold and jade trim on the servant next to him, quickly dipped Luo Sheng's hand and put it away, and said loudly: "The Fifth Emperor Lady is stained with morning dew, and there is no way to go wrong when she becomes an adult." ”

Morning dew, morning dew, the dew collected in the morning cleans the hands, and this meaning is also absolute. After Luo Sheng was stained with dew, she secretly used the spell in her body to evaporate the dew, and she felt uncomfortable with sticky hands.

After Luo Sheng finished doing this, he walked forward as if nothing had happened, supporting the ink bamboo with one hand and pulling the bright red Qingling suit with the other.

Only Mo Zhu, who was next to Luo Sheng, saw Luo Sheng's changes, but Mo Zhu held Luo Sheng's hand as if nothing had happened, and continued to walk forward with Luo Sheng.

Luo Sheng walked forward without squinting, while scanning the two people with the corner of his eye, the piece of powder standing on the left side of the red carpet was Her Majesty's ministers, and on the right was the history of various countries, the people on the left and right looked at her with kindness or hostility, or expressionless, or nothing to do with themselves, but there were always some people on both sides who were ready to move, Luo Sheng waited calmly to see which of them came first, walked more than a dozen steps, and finally the person on the right took the first step.

"Dare to ask the five emperors and daughters of Fengling Kingdom, we have always heard that your five emperors and daughters of Fengling Kingdom are a genius, three years old can read thousands of words and recite thousands of poems, four years old can fiddle with all kinds of weapons, presumably now it has reached the point of being supernatural, right?"

This is the second step of the coming-of-age ceremony, to accept the examination of the ministers and envoys, generally these voices questioning the superior are provoked by the envoys of foreign countries, intending to explore whether she, the five emperors of the Fengling country, is real gold or a vain straw bale soft egg, in order to consider the heritage of a country, therefore, the empresses of each country are very cautious when choosing the empress, and after choosing the heir, they began to invite the world's most learned people to teach their civil and military knowledge, in order to shine at the coming-of-age ceremony, Convince all countries. Luo Sheng looked at the woman who was talking to her, she was about twenty-eight or nineteen years old, she was not wearing court clothes, her body was covered with hard armor, her face was sallow, her hair was dry and tied casually, giving people a feeling of being stationed on the frontier all year round. Luo Sheng searched in his mind and matched the person, she should be the third of Beiyi Kingdom....

"The Fifth Emperor Princess, this is Changping, the third emperor and princess of the Beiyi Kingdom, who is stationed in the border area with my country Linjing all the year round, and this time I came to participate in your coming-of-age ceremony, and the Beiyi Kingdom only sent one of the three emperors and princesses to come."

Luo Sheng knew what the concept of a person Mo Zhu emphasized, she knew the deeds of this imperial princess when she listened to the wind last night to report on the visits of various countries, Beiyi Kingdom did only send three imperial princesses to come, and this Beiyi Kingdom was also the only one who did not send her own prince over to serve her, so it is no wonder that Her Majesty the Empress has a headache for this.

Last night, Feng told her about the personnel situation of various countries today, and asked her to look at the portraits of those people to recognize their faces, but she didn't have so much time, because she felt asleep because she was worried about asking Bai Ze something, but Bai Ze didn't find it, which couldn't help but make Luo Sheng a little depressed.

Mo Zhu didn't know what he was thinking when he saw that his Fifth Emperor Daughter was provoked by others and still looked like he didn't care about himself, so he clenched his hand holding Luo Sheng a little anxiously.

How do you know that Luo Sheng is not distracted, she doesn't take these people in her eyes at all, and she doesn't need to deal with them wholeheartedly.

"Isn't it true that all the previous rumors about the five emperors and daughters of Fengling Kingdom were rumors? How? Is this scared to answer? Changping glanced at Luo Sheng from the corner of his eye, the woman is thin and wicker, the girl is male, it is not strong to look at, what else is the Wen Tao Wu strategy, let me bag one!

Changping gave Luo Sheng such a definition and let out a disdainful snort.

"According to the rules, two wins in three games shall prevail, but I don't have to win two, say your exam questions, if I lose once, the position of the princess of Fengling Kingdom will be given to you." Luo Sheng calmly said something that made the two columns of people standing dumbfounded.

Her Majesty the Empress was a little far away from Luo Sheng, and the golden phoenix chair in the high hall looked at the situation outside, and the situation was not quite right, so Xiao Shunzi called the little waiter who was listening to the wind outside, and the little waiter trembled and said what Luo Sheng said just now to Her Majesty.

After the waiter timidly finished speaking, she didn't dare to look at Her Majesty the Empress, she thought that Her Majesty the Empress would be furious and blame the five empress daughters for acting arbitrarily without knowing the height of the sky, but unexpectedly, what he was waiting for was Her Majesty's shallow smile.
