Chapter 327: Nine Heavens Phoenix Lights
Hearing this, the third princess stumbled a few times, looked sad and pitiful, and said, "Yes, father~" bowed and retreated.
Wan Guifei's body stiffened, and she didn't come back to her senses for a long time, she didn't expect things to turn out like this, and she didn't expect the queen to speak for the third princess.
Her eyes looked at the queen in a daze, but she saw that the queen's eyes flashed, revealing a meaningful smile.
Wan Guifei suddenly understood something, and the whole person was instantly disheartened.
A good birthday banquet, no one thought that the emperor would lose his temper, or because of the birthday gift, everyone was in danger for a while, and no one dared to come forward to give gifts, for fear that the birthday gift he gave would offend the emperor's mold again, which made the emperor angry.
For a while, the atmosphere of the whole birthday banquet instantly became cold, and when the queen saw this scene, her eyes flashed with a trace of anxiety, and she became more and more anxious when she looked at this scene, how good is this~
Suddenly, the queen's eyes turned, and her eyes fell on one person, only to see that at this moment, no matter what three seven twenty-one, still staring intently at the plate of food in front of her, looking greedily,
That person was Lu Yue, Lu Yue picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, his eyes narrowed instantly, revealing a satisfied little expression.
The queen looked at Lu Yue, the corners of her mouth curved slightly, and said in her heart: This Princess Qin is really interesting, no wonder the emperor also likes it very much, looking at it is a simple-minded child~
The queen turned her eyes around, and when she didn't find a suitable target, she sighed slightly, she coughed lightly, saluted the emperor's gaze, and slowly said: "Your Majesty, I heard that this princess of Qin has always had the reputation of being virtuous and virtuous, do you want to take a look?" ”
The emperor was stunned when he heard this, and was silent for a moment, and just when the queen couldn't help but regret it, the emperor suddenly spoke, and the eunuchs on the side hurriedly stepped forward to announce Lu Yue's visit.
As soon as this incident came out, the entire circle of nobles exploded, they talked about it, and many people quietly looked at Lu Yue curiously with the intention of watching the play, and they were all guessing what birthday gift Lu Yue prepared for the emperor by Princess Lu Yue~
There are also people who secretly purse their lips and snicker because of this, thinking that this Princess Qin is simply unlucky, no, the third princess has just been reprimanded by the emperor, and this Princess Qin Lu Yue was pushed out, isn't it just looking for death?
Lu Yue was slightly surprised when she heard this, she thought it would take a while to reach her? I didn't expect it to be so soon, as soon as she stood up, all the different eyes of everyone looked over in an instant.
Lu Yue's eyes were faint, the expression on her face was just right, with a hint of trepidation in her humility, she raised her feet, just took a step, her legs shook inexplicably, and instantly remembered what the two grandmothers said.
Lu Yue's eyes did not squint, and he walked forward, probably too cautious, his whole body was slightly drifting, and his behavior looked a little frivolous~
"Poof~" Someone didn't hold back, laughed quietly, and was so frightened that they were silent for a while, and everyone looked at Lu Yue with a little more contempt, no wonder people said that this Princess Qin was stupid and stupid, and she was the daughter of a merchant who couldn't get on the stage, tsk~ I didn't expect Lu Yue to learn the etiquette rules so poorly, and she really lost the people of the Qin Palace~
Lu Yue also heard this ridicule in a trance, his face changed instantly, and he became more and more anxious, but the more he wanted to perform well, he lost his level, his steps became bigger and bigger, and even his breathing was a little messy, and he almost stepped on the hem of his clothes, and the whole person almost fell to the ground in embarrassment, and suddenly a person appeared in time, and his arm was strong and powerful to help Lu Yue stand firm.
Qin Mufeng glanced at Lu Yue with a deep look in his eyes, and instantly let go of his hand, as if he had just helped Lu Yue just now.
The arm left, but Lu Yue's back left Qin Mufeng's slightly hot body temperature, and Lu Yue's face turned red all at once.
Seeing this, Qin Mufeng hooked the corners of his mouth, his eyes were deep and glowing, he nodded slightly at Lu Yue, Lu Yue was stunned for a moment, he had already come back to his senses, and he also nodded, reassuring Qin Mufeng.
The difference between the two steps was less than half a step, one after the other, Qin Mufeng's tall figure was long, straight and powerful, and Lu Yue's short figure was petite and weak.
Many people think that Lu Yue is not worthy of the prince of Qin, who is full of poetry and books, but when the two stand together, it reminds people of the fairy couple who appeared in the book, and they stand together like a pair made in heaven, which is enviable.
The two walked in front of the emperor together, bowed and saluted, the emperor heard this, and said straightly: "Get up~" His gaze swept over Lu Yue, and then looked at Qin Mufeng, and the corners of his mouth suddenly smiled again, "I heard that you also prepared a birthday gift for Lone?"
Qin Mufeng glanced at Lu Yue, only to see Lu Yue blinking, giving people a sense of peace of mind.
Qin Mufeng looked stunned and said: "Yes, the emperor, the two of us wish the emperor good luck, and all wishes come true~"
"Okay~" The emperor pulled the corners of his mouth, revealing a hint of expectation.
Qin Mufeng glanced back, and immediately two people walked over carrying a half-person tall thing, and when everyone heard that it was a birthday gift for the emperor, they immediately raised their necks in surprise and looked over, but it was a pity that the thing was covered by several layers of rhombus veil, which made it difficult to see clearly.
The birthday ceremony slowly passed by the three princesses, the three princesses raised their eyes, their reddish eyes, showing her embarrassment in front of everyone just now, her eyes flashed a touch of resentment, and then lowered her eyelids, and the corners of her mouth showed a smile, heh, Lu Yue, Lu Yue, since I can't win, you don't want to be proud, I was ridiculed and blamed by my father, hehe, you can't escape such a fate~
The handkerchief in her hand was clenched tightly together, and her eyes looked at Qin Mufeng and Lu Yue with ill will.
When the emperor saw the thing covered by the rhombus veil, he was also a little curious, and said, "Qin Aiqing, what is this?" ”
Qin Mufeng raised his eyelids slightly, and immediately the two little guys on the side lifted the rhombus veil, only to see a huge birdcage appear in front of everyone, saying that it looks like a birdcage but not like it, because that thing is all spliced with small wooden blocks one by one, and there are hundreds of small square holes on it, which looks very peculiar~
Everyone was stunned, even the emperor opened his mouth in slight surprise, and Qin Mufeng was also stunned, because when Lu Yue asked people to make a birthday gift, he was busy with court affairs and went out early and returned late, so he didn't have a chance to see it at all, and when he wanted to see it later, Lu Yue had already replaced it with a fake one~
"This ...... How is this possible~" The third princess looked at Lu Yue's intact birthday gift, and her eyes were about to pop out, with a look of disbelief.
"This ...... What is it? The emperor had recovered from the shock, and he pointed to the thing on the ground.
Qin Mufeng didn't know what that thing was, he looked at Lu Yue, only to see Lu Yue take two steps forward, the corners of her mouth rose, and she bowed and said, "If you go back to the emperor, this is the Nine Heavens Phoenix Lantern~"
"What...... What the? The emperor blurted out in shock, he stood up at once, walked to the thing in a few steps, and retreated~
Not to mention that the emperor can't believe it, even the ministers can't believe it, just because it is the Nine Heavens Phoenix Lamp, which is a legendary artifact hundreds of years ago, there is a kind of legend in the world, and the legend says that as long as this magic lamp is made, it can attract the gods and bless the world.
It's a pity that such a thing exists closely in the legend, and there is an exact document record that it was more than a hundred years ago, there was a skilled craftsman who really made this magic lamp, and I heard that it can move with the wind and can make a crisp sound similar to the sound of a phoenix. When lit, it can cast the silhouette of a land monster in the dark, and a faint fragrance wafts from time to time.
Suddenly, the skilled craftsman became famous and became the most famous master craftsman at that time.
Lu Yue stepped forward with a smile and said, "Do you want to try it?" ”
"Try??" The emperor's eyes were fixed on Lu Yue, and there was a faint expectation in his eyes.
"Hmm~" Lu Yue nodded, she chuckled a few times, walked to the magic lamp, raised her eyes and glanced around, and saw that everyone's eyes unconsciously showed a sense of awe.
I saw Lu Yue twist the fire fold from the hands of the palace people, and when it blew with the wind, a spark ignited in an instant, and a little bit at the core on the lamp, and in an instant, the Nine Heavens Phoenix Ming Lantern was like a firework that was ignited, and with a "poof~" sound, it exploded in an instant.
In the suspicious and surprised eyes of everyone, I saw that the inconspicuous Nine Heavens Phoenix Lamp suddenly burst out like a lantern, bright and bright.
The breeze blew, and the wood chips, which were as thin as the wings of cicadas, turned gently, and there was a very clear humming sound, sometimes like the murmuring of birds, sometimes like the singing of birds.
"This... Is this the voice of the phoenix? Oh my God~" Someone couldn't help but exclaim, and when they touched the eyes of others, they shrank back in an instant.
The emperor suddenly came back to his senses, his eyes were full of eagerness on the lamp, and his expression was faintly excited.
"Ah, look at the emperor~" The queen stood up in shock.
The emperor looked at it, only to see that in the shadows on the ground, countless points of light appeared, and the points of light spread out, and they turned out to be the words of longevity.
Those longevity characters are gradually getting bigger, gradually turning into one huge light and shadow after another, inexplicably revealing a bit of mystery and solemnity in this dark night.
The emperor and the queen stood side by side, their eyes staring straight ahead, sacred and inviolable, like two gods, one body of brilliance.
The eyes of the crowd widened for a long time, and they didn't know how to react for a while.
Qin Mufeng had already recovered from the shock, he took two steps closer, walked to Lu Yue's side, and glanced at Lu Yue, this Lu Yue was really bold, he dared to talk to the emperor like this, he stepped forward and knelt down imperceptibly, facing the emperor and queen, and said: "The ministers wish the emperor and queen a long life, the phoenix is flying, and the wings are branching~"
Seeing this, everyone came back to their senses from this shocking scene, and knelt down and said: "I wish the emperor and queen a long life, the phoenix is flying, and the wings are even branches~"
For a while, the cry shook the sky, echoing in the vast night space for a long time.
The emperor took the queen's hand, smiled happily, and said loudly: "Okay, please get up~"
While speaking, the emperor personally stepped forward to help Qin Mufeng and said with a smile: "Qin Aiqing is really a pillar of the country, this birthday gift is really very much in my heart~"
"Don't dare, don't dare, the emperor has a reputation~" Qin Mufeng arched his hand, and after that, he raised his head and glanced at Lu Yue, who was obediently hanging his head on the side.
