Chapter 22: Celebrating the Recognition of Women

"Her Majesty." At this time, Xinlan shouted to Her Majesty the Queen, who was about to walk out of the courtyard.

"What else?" Her Majesty turned around and asked.

"Fengchen, please don't tell Li'er about it for the time being, she doesn't know that Fengchen has left." Xinlan looked at Her Majesty the Queen and pleaded.

After hearing this, Her Majesty was a little skeptical, but soon, she nodded slightly towards Xinlan and said, "Okay." ”

Elder Mo and Elder Xuan Si also nodded their heads one after another, indicating that they knew.

Seeing this, Xinlan also nodded slightly to Her Majesty the Queen and the others to thank her.

......

As Her Majesty and the others quickly came to the gate outside the palace, Her Majesty the Queen stopped here and said to Elder Mo behind him: "Elder Mo, the whole city is on alert, strengthening patrols day and night, and ordering the soldiers at the entrance of the east gate and the west gate, any unfamiliar faces must be investigated first, and then let them enter the city." ”

"The old man is going." Elder Mo bowed back.

"Elder Xuansi, please come with me." Her Majesty said to Elder Xuan Si again.

Elder Xuansi didn't speak, just bent down slightly, and watched Her Majesty the Queen walk towards the hall, the latter also followed quickly, Elder Mo saw this, quickly turned around, and walked towards another place outside the hall.

"Your Majesty." Coming to the hall, Elder Xuanji bowed to Her Majesty the Queen in front of him.

"Elder Xuansi, do you remember what Xinlan said just now?" Her Majesty asked, tilting her head.

"Yes."

"Did you find anything suspicious in it?"

Elder Xuanji immediately entered a state of thought, but soon shook his head slightly towards Her Majesty.

"Listening to what Xinlan said, every household in Wind Spirit Valley was burned down by the people of the Black Wind God's envoy, but judging from the order, they started from the villagers, not went straight to Fengchen's house." Her Majesty continued thoughtfully: "Obviously, their purpose is not just to be dusty. ”

"Could it be that they are looking for something, and this thing happened to appear in the Wind Spirit Valley?" Elder Xuan Si asked.

"I can't rule out this possibility, but the question is, what is there in Wind Spirit Valley that allows them to stay alive?" Her Majesty said.

"The Black Wind Divine Envoy and the people under him are all ruthless and vicious people, and it is not surprising that they do not leave a living mouth." Elder Xuanji said.

"It's a pity that the wind and dust fell so young and fell here, and suffered to the point of annihilation." At this time, Her Majesty said with a sad expression.

"Your Majesty, please pay your respects." Elder Xuansi knew Her Majesty's thoughts, so he comforted her.

"This matter will be discussed later, you can step down first." Her Majesty said slowly.

"Yes." Elder Xuanji slowly retreated, and finally turned around and left the hall.

At this time, Her Majesty was very sad, she slowly sat on the steps in the hall, her right hand propped up on the steps, her eyes were ruddy, and the tears at the corners of her eyes were sliding down on her charming face. ”

......

With the death of Fengchen leaving Her Majesty with some questions, in the investigation of half a month, the spies arranged by Commander Mo to go to Fengling Valley have also been repeatedly investigated twice, but they are still fruitless.

And the imperial city also carried out strict defense and strengthened patrols day and night after the arrival of Xinlan and Pineapple.

For the Wind Spirit Valley, now it no longer exists, all the houses have become charred, and the so-called peach blossom beauty has also disappeared, leaving behind only a heart-wrenching reflection.

During this period, Pineapple often asked Xinlan about her father, but the latter didn't say a word, and avoided Pineapple's questioning.

Time passed slowly, nearly half a year has passed in a flash, and today, it is also ushering in the joyful celebration of the imperial city.

This so-called joyful celebration, in fact, is the people for the imperial city's birthday, facing the imperial city, in this god realm world has existed for hundreds of years, since the first emperor created the city, the people have lived a prosperous and peaceful life, from the inheritance, each emperor is very much love the people, therefore, the people are also in the middle of the year, deliberately choose auspicious days for the imperial city to celebrate the birthday, in order to represent their own gratitude to the imperial city, and pray.

And on this day, the city is also very lively, every household, the lanterns are colorful, every place in the imperial city is full of lanterns, as well as a variety of colorful cloth belts, the people are also neatly dressed, the whole city gathers, crowds of people come to the palace, each is showing their talents.

"Pear, look, this is the celebration day of our imperial city, isn't it very lively?" At this time, Her Majesty the Queen, who was on the balcony above the palace, saw this and said softly with a smile to the pineapple beside her.

"Wow, that's a lot of people." Pineapple stood on a thick wooden bench and looked down, full of surprise.

Her Majesty was overjoyed when she saw this.

In the past six months, Her Majesty has been very fond of pineapples, and in the face of pineapples' well-behaved, cute, and touching manners, Her Majesty also has an idea in her heart.

Xin Lan, who was standing on the other side of the pineapple, saw that the pineapple was so happy today, and there was a slight smile on her face, in the past six months, she clearly felt that the pineapple was in a low and sad state, from the previous occasional naughty and cute, pleasing time, to the current bowing of the head and silence, and expressionless.

But today, it seems that Xinlan may also know that Pineapple may have only temporarily forgotten the troubles in her heart during this day.

Elder Xuan Si and Elder Mo were also happy when they saw this behind Her Majesty, for these two people, since Xinlan and Pineapple came to the Imperial City, Her Majesty the Queen often put down the things on hand to accompany Pineapple, which is not only a companionship, but also a kind of love, for this reason, the two are also very aware of Her Majesty's mood at the moment.

"Alright, Pear, it's cold outside, shall we go inside?" Her Majesty said softly to the pineapple again.

Pineapple quickly turned her head to look at Her Majesty the Queen, and said with a sad expression: "Daddy also said this. ”

When everyone heard it, they were first shocked, and then they were at a loss, and in the face of Pineapple's sudden words, Xinlan quickly became solemn.

Her Majesty was also shocked when she heard Pineapple mention the dust, but she quickly recovered, and then smiled at Pineapple: "Really? That... Shall we go inside? ”

"Hmm." Pineapple turned around and said.

With the support of Her Majesty the Queen, Pineapple jumped down from the wooden bench gently, and everyone saw this and quickly went to catch it, but before she could do so, Pineapple had already landed, and looked up at the latter and smiled.

Seeing this, everyone also looked at the pineapple with a smile on their faces.

Under the guidance of Her Majesty the Queen, soon, everyone followed to the hall, and Her Majesty walked to the steps and stopped, and then looked at the pineapple beside her, looking a little hesitant.

Seeing this, Elder Xuan Si and Master Mo looked at each other for a moment, but they didn't say anything, and they didn't stop them.

And at this moment, Xinlan whispered to Pineapple: "Pear, come here." ”

Pineapple heard Xinlan's cry, turned her head to look at Xinlan, and at the moment when she was about to turn around, Her Majesty said softly to Pineapple: "It's okay, let's go up together." ”

Watching Pineapple follow Her Majesty to the steps, although Xinlan wanted to stop it, but it was too late, Xinlan turned her head to look at Elder Xuansi again, who looked at her and shook her head slightly, signaling her not to stop.

As Pineapple was dragged by Her Majesty to the golden chair in the hall, Her Majesty quickly turned around and sat on the golden chair, and then chuckled at Pineapple and said, "Come, Pear, sit next to me." ”

Under the caress of Her Majesty, Pineapple looked at Her Majesty with some puzzlement, and then turned her head to look at Xinlan below, who looked at her and did not speak, for this reason, Pineapple sat on the golden chair under the caress of Her Majesty and sat with Her Majesty.

Seeing this, Elder Xuansi and Elder Mo, as well as the hundreds of civil and military officials behind Xin Lan, none of them stopped them, and none of them had expressions, they all bowed their heads slightly, their hands forward, and gave them the dantian under them, and their expressions were very serious and their postures were upright.

"The king is here to announce something to you." Her Majesty looked at Pineapple and continued to smile: "From today on, Pineapple will be the daughter of this king and the next queen of my imperial city, and from today on, Pear will officially be the only Pear Highness in my imperial city." ”

As soon as these words came out, all the officials under the hall began to discuss, even Elder Mo and Xin Lan were startled, and quickly looked at Her Majesty the Queen, but the latter still looked down with a smile on his face, and then turned to Pineapple and smiled.

And Elder Xuansi was straight, his eyes slightly closed, and he was very calm.

In the heart of Elder Xuansi, the queen's decision, whether it is right or wrong, he will unconditionally obey it, and he also agrees with Her Majesty's recognition of the daughter, after all, Her Majesty has no heirs in private, and it is also a good thing to have a new owner of the imperial city who is recognized at this time, but whether it can be recognized by everyone depends on what Pineapple does.

While everyone was still talking, Her Majesty continued: "Do you have any objections? ”

"Your Majesty, the old man has no objection to the matter of recognizing the woman, but... If it is the choice of the next queen of the imperial city, old man..."At this time, Elder Mo was a little afraid to finish speaking to Her Majesty the Queen.

"yes, yes."

"That's right."

"The queen is not something that can be done by just one person."

"Yes, yes, yes."

At this time, everyone began to talk again, and all kinds of topics echoed in the hall.

Seeing this, Xin Lan below looked at the discussion between the people in front of him and behind him, looking a little nervous and angry, but he didn't speak, his eyes were fixed on Her Majesty, wanting to see how the latter decided.

"Li'er is still young, she has a kind nature, she loves the people, and this king loves her very much, if you have any objections to her as the next queen of the imperial city, we can also give her time, I believe that in the future, she will be recognized by you." Her Majesty said again.

"The old man agrees with Her Majesty's choice." At this time, Elder Xuanji said suddenly.

When everyone saw Elder Xuan Si say this, they quickly bowed back to Her Majesty the Queen and said, "Your Majesty is wise. ”

Seeing this, Her Majesty was also overjoyed, and after nodding slowly, she whispered to Pineapple: "Pear, are you willing to be my daughter?" ”

Pineapple turned to look at Her Majesty the Queen, in her expression, Pineapple had never experienced maternal love, facing Her Majesty the Queen in front of her, Pineapple really wanted to have such a mother.

Pineapple looked at Her Majesty with cute eyes, hesitated for a moment, and nodded slightly at Her Majesty.

Seeing this, Her Majesty smiled, very bright, graceful and luxurious.

"Can you call me the queen mother?" Her Majesty said gently.

Pineapple hesitated a little, but soon, she called out to Her Majesty, "Queen Mother." ”

"Good pear." When Her Majesty heard this, she was very moved, and quickly took the pineapple in her arms and kept caressing the latter's back.

Seeing this, everyone in the hall was overjoyed, Elder Mo was calm, but Elder Xuansi's smile was very bright, and even Xinlan looked at Her Majesty the Queen and Pineapple hugging each other above, and also smiled.

What Xinlan thought in her heart may be that now that Fengchen is gone, Fengyi is nowhere to be found, Pineapple's mother is suffering in the Protoss, and now she has the love of the queen of the imperial city, maybe her pain will be alleviated a little, which is not a good thing.

What Xinlan is currently thinking about is hoping that Pineapple's life can be peaceful and happy.

With Her Majesty announcing the end of the event, Elder Xuansi and Elder Mo took Pineapple to the city to watch and entertain, while Her Majesty the Queen and Xinlan came to the palace to walk slowly.

"You shouldn't have made that decision." At this time, Xin Lan looked ahead and said slowly.

"Why?" Her Majesty said.

"Li'er is a child of the Protoss, and she will stay in the Protoss in the end." Xinlan said.

"I know, but so what?"

"There's no way she's going to be the next queen of the Imperial City." Xinlan stopped and turned to Her Majesty.

After hearing this, Her Majesty also stopped, her expression was silent from afar, and after thinking for a while, she also turned to Xin Lan and said: "It doesn't matter, I just like this child very much, I just want her to be my daughter, as for whether she will become the next queen of the imperial city in the future, it is up to her to decide." ”

After Her Majesty finished speaking, she turned again and walked slowly.

Xin Lan watched from behind her, and then continued, "Her mother is the inheritor of our Divine Clan's Divine Phoenix. ”

Her Majesty suddenly stopped, and her figure did not move for a long time.

Seeing this, Xinlan quickly moved forward, came to Her Majesty's side and continued: "But because of the wind and dust, she gave up the inheritance of the Divine Phoenix. ”

"What are you saying to me?" Her Majesty said slowly.

"Just wanted to tell you that Li'er is in the Imperial City... It won't stay long. Xinlan said slowly.

"So what?" Her Majesty continued: "She recognized me as her mother for one day, and she is also my daughter for the rest of her life, and everything in the Imperial City is hers. ”

Xinlan heard Her Majesty like this, knowing that she knew that what she said next would not affect Her Majesty's thoughts in front of her, it seemed that the latter really liked Li'er very much, so Xinlan did not continue to speak, quickly followed Her Majesty's steps, came to her side, the two looked at each other for a while, and left with a smile.
