Chapter 24: The Holy Maiden

After a few days, Su Liu hurriedly said goodbye to her family, and then took advantage of the twilight to return to the Liang Mansion, only to see Feng Luxiu standing in her courtyard waiting for her.

"I'm coming back on time, I'll give the gift tomorrow, and I'm ready for life."

"Hmm." Su Liu stepped into the room and whispered in his ear, "Thank you for taking care of my family." ”

Feng Luxiu lowered his eyes and was silent.

For some reason, Su Liu kept thinking about things, didn't fall asleep much, squinted for a while, was pulled up and dressed up, washed, and then stuffed into a red sedan chair in a daze. Su Liu opened the sedan curtain with half-squinted eyes, and saw that the streets were full of people on both sides, Su Liu looked at it for a while, and saw Su's father and Su mother holding Su sleeves Su Miao was also in the crowd, and Ben Ben was still standing next to him, Ben Ben grabbed the hand of the adult next to him, and the scar on his face had fallen off, leaving no traces.

Su Liu smiled, put down the sedan curtain, and closed his eyes to recuperate.

"Miss, miss." Su Liu was originally closing her eyes to recuperate, but she didn't think that the sedan chair was a little bumpy and coaxed her to sleep like a cradle chair, and a maidservant shook her and shouted, "It's time to get off the sedan chair." ”

The maidservant retreated, Su Liu lifted the curtain and walked out, and there were a hundred steps in sight, on the top of the stairs, the king was waiting for her to come up and give a gift, and the people behind him kept shouting "Holy Maiden".

There were mysterious lines on the long black sacrificial robe, swaying on the ground as Su Liu continued to walk forward.

Su Liu stepped on the stairs, the height difference between the two stairs was a little much, at first it was okay, after walking thirty steps, she knew that this staircase was not simple, every time she walked a step, there was a layer of pressure on her body that increased with the growth of the steps, Su Liu secretly carried the spell and walked down. When he reached the eightieth step, Su Liu's knees were bent down, and he was about to kneel, but she was forced forward by her.

It became more and more clear to the people on the steps that not only the emperor, but also the important ministers stood behind the king, witnessing the great ceremony.

When he reached the ninetieth step, Su Liu finally couldn't hold it and knelt on the steps. Seeing that the saint no longer moved forward on the steps, the people watching below all stopped shouting and looked at the black shadow with concern.

Su Liu wanted to stand up, but her legs were no longer obedient, and there was already a blanket in front of her, she stretched out her hand and continued to crawl up little by little.

I don't know which step I have reached, Su Liu only knows how to move forward, his legs are lifted with difficulty, his hands are climbing forward hard, sweat dripping down the steps one by one, and his internal organs are about to be crushed by the pressure.

The surroundings were quiet, and Su Liu thought that he must be very embarrassed now, but he couldn't help it, so he kept moving forward with his eyes closed. Finally, the hand could no longer reach the stairs. Su Liu opened his eyes, and there were no more stairs in his vague vision, but several pairs of boots.

She raised her leg and thought about this last step, and as soon as her hand became weak, the whole person rolled down the stairs. The pressure disappeared from Su Liu's body in an instant, Su Liu was so tired, so tired that she just wanted to keep rolling like this.

A slight soft feeling replaced the bump of the steps, Su Liu opened his eyes, he was surrounded by white silk, and after the silk was withdrawn, he fell steadily into an embrace.

When he looked up, he met a pair of blue eyes, a hosta was inserted in a white hair bun, a mask covered the upper half of his face, and a lip was exposed, full but pale in color.

Seeing this, Feng Luxiu withdrew his step.

A gentle force was slowly injected into Su Liu's body, and Su Liu's body felt a little more comfortable, and he was slowly put down by the man.

"Thank you." Su Liu said softly, looking around, the courtiers around her were all looking at her, with complicated expressions, Su Liu looked at Feng Luxiu, only to see him frowning and signaling her to go to the emperor's side.

Su Liu walked up to the emperor and knelt down.

"Please also ask the emperor to give a gift." Hands on the ground, looking at the ground, mixed tastes.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that she has not passed the hundred-step examination and cannot afford to be a saint." Fan Yi, who was standing on the side, said loudly, looking at the woman lying on the ground with some hostility.

"Your Majesty, Yinglang has been carefully treating the epidemic for half a month, and serving as a saint is the desire of the people, and it may be because of the previous treatment of the epidemic, and the vitality has not recovered well, so he can't withstand the hundred-step examination." Feng Luxiu said on the side, and Liang Jin nodded in agreement.

Later, the courtiers of the two factions led by Liang Jin and Chaomu spoke for their own side, and Chaomu pushed Chao Yuli and glanced at him.

The emperor saw that these courtiers were babbling, as if they were talking according to the meaning of Liang Jin and Fan Yi, and his eyebrows gathered.

"Your Majesty, just now I visited this woman's body, and it seems that there is a gap in spiritual power. Therefore, it is understandable that there are some deviations in completing the hundred-step trial. When everyone was talking, Chao Yuli suddenly opened his mouth, which surprised everyone on both sides, obviously it was the person next to Fan Yi, but he was helping Liang Jin speak, and the time was quiet.

The emperor pondered for a while, "Well, I think the priest has a point. Turning sideways, he picked up the crown on the side with both hands and put it on Su Liu's head.

When everyone saw it, except for Chao Yuli and the king, they all knelt down and shouted, "Congratulations to the Holy Maiden on her accession to the throne and bless the country for a thousand years." ”

Su Liu stood up after receiving the crown, looked down the hundred steps, the guards on both sides of the stairs were also kneeling down and shouting in unison, passing one-on-one, to the first order of the guards, full of vigor shouting, the people heard the words, they all prostrate on the ground, shouted three times and got up, and looked at the three people standing on the stage with respect, their emperor and priest, saintess, this is a situation that has never been seen before.

Now several countries are fighting, the appearance of priests in the first two years seems to be a prosperous national fortune, the country is in good weather, the national strength is gradually strong, and when foreign enemies invade, there are priests in charge, and many battles have been won, I just hope that this holy woman can reproduce the glory of Yao Kingdom with the priests.
