Chapter 55: Meeting the Emperor of Heaven

Yejun jumped neatly from the beam of the house and landed right in front of Yingning. He was dressed in a moon-white robe, and he looked at her with crooked eyebrows and smiled.

He took out a delicate white porcelain jar from his sleeve and handed it to her as if offering a treasure. Ying Ning took it for some reason and asked curiously, "What is this?"

Yejun opened the lid, scooped out a little with his little finger, and explained to her in detail, "This is the incense I just made, and it tastes good when you light it." This time I brought it to you, I don't know if you like it? ”

Ying Ning lowered his head and sniffed the incense powder on his fingers, the floral fragrance was rich, tranquil and fresh, no worse than the incense in the Xuannu Palace.

She carefully closed the lid and said happily, "It does smell good, I don't know what the name of this incense is?"

Yejun thought for a while, coughed lightly, and said, "This incense is made by grinding sandalwood, peach blossoms, lotuses, lilies, and cloves. Since it was given to you, why don't you choose a name? ”

"Shall I pick it up? I don't have much literary talent, so I'm afraid I can't choose a good name! Ying Ning said modestly.

Yejun chuckled and said, "You always read more than me, if you can't pick it up, then I don't have a good name."

Ying Ning pondered for a moment, and whispered as if talking to herself: "Since it is made of many flowers, it smells refreshing and makes people intoxicated, why don't you call it drunken flowers?"

Yejun couldn't help but praise when he heard it: "Good name, this name is really wonderful!"

Yingning just took it casually, and Yejun praised her like this, she was inevitably a little shy. She waved her hand and said, "No, I didn't bother to think about it."

Hong Aya said behind her: "My sister is quick to think, and she is worthy of this praise." After saying that, she walked over again and took out a red handkerchief from her bosom, which seemed to be wrapped in something.

The red silk was opened layer by layer, and there was a white jade hairpin lying inside, the style was not unusual, and the patterns carved on it were very exquisite. Hong Aya helped her insert it into her bun and said softly: "I don't have any precious good objects, this hairpin has been with me for a long time, and I have forgotten where it came from and where it came from." Don't be disgusted. ”

Ying Ning was shocked, hurriedly took down the hosta, and said, "Since it is my sister's personal thing, I don't think it's a mortal thing, how can I accept it?" Sister, let's take it back. ”

Hong Aya snatched the hosta from her hand, put it back on for her, and said in a deep voice: "I won't take back what I gave out, if you refuse to accept it, then I won't come in the future."

Yingning couldn't, so she had to accept it. She was a little uneasy, and said in a whisper: "You are here when you come, and you are still bringing gifts, and I don't dare to invite you in the future."

Yejun looked at her and smiled, shaking his head like an old master, he said: "We came here as guests, how can there be any reason to come empty-handed, if you let that group of high-ranking immortals know, it should be said that we little immortals who have not yet attained the Tao are rude."

"If only I didn't think so, you don't have to care about what they think of old antiques." Ying Ning said indifferently.

Yejun shook his head and said, "It's not proper, it's not proper, our etiquette is still to be thoughtful."

They chatted for a long time, and suddenly remembered the sound of a bell outside, which was the gate of heaven about to close. Any immortal who does not live in the Heavenly Palace should go out when he hears this sound.

Yejun and Red Aya got up to say goodbye to her, she felt that time was too fast, and before she could say a few words, they were leaving.

Sending them to the door, Ying Ning reluctantly said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to see them until the first day of the next month."

Yejun paused, as if he had something to say. In the middle of the night, the Night Monarch suddenly spoke: "The fifteenth day of this month is the birthday of the Emperor of Heaven, and all the immortals will come to congratulate him. However, the little fairy in Qingyuan has always been taken seriously, and he can't receive invitations every year. I wonder what I would rather do to let me come and see the grand occasion? ”

Ying Ning laughed and said, "What did I think it was? There is nothing wrong with this, there are countless immortals on that day every year, and no one will know about one more or less at all. When the time comes, just come, and I'll wait for you at the Gate of Heaven." ”

A slight smile appeared on the corner of Yejun's mouth, looked at Ying Ning and said, "Then I wrote about Ning Ning here first."

Red Aya glanced at Yejun strangely, and her eyes darkened a little. She didn't say anything, and walked away.

Yejun glanced at the departing Hongyan, smiled at Yingning and said, "I don't know what kind of temper I have, I'll go, see you on fifteen."

Yejun had just left the Gate of Heaven, and Red Aya was waiting there. Yejun saw that her face was fine, he walked over and said lightly: "I thought you left first, are you waiting for me here?"

Red Aya sneered, "You think I'm willing to wait for you?" I just want to ask, you have never been invited to celebrate the birthday of the Emperor for so many years, why did you want to come this time? Are you taking advantage of Yingning? What exactly is your purpose? ”

Yejun hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled evilly, and said disapprerovingly: "What purpose can I have, it's just that I haven't seen anything in the world, and now I want to see it." Do you speculate so much about my purpose? ”

Red Aya looked at him questioningly, Yejun never did anything without a purpose. With his scheming nature, under the pretext of seeing the world, others believe it, but she doesn't believe it. She snorted coldly and said, "You'd better have no ulterior motives, Yingning is simple, I will never watch you harm her." I will come with you that day, and if you dare to do anything crooked, I will not be polite to you. ”

Yejun watched Red Aya disappear into the night, he smiled slightly, and said to himself, "You can stop me?" Overestimate one's strength or oneself. ”

On September 15, before dawn, there were already people outside, Yingning got up early, and there were clothes sent by a child to meet him. Her grade is not too high, and she doesn't have to be too luxurious in her dress, as long as she is dignified enough.

A few days ago, Xuannu took a group of disciples to select cloth and order new clothes. Most of them chose dazzling and gorgeous, but Yingning didn't want to be too outstanding, so she only picked light blue silk and sent it to the garment factory.

The craftsmanship of the garment workshop is excellent, and the clothes made for her are very close-fitting and can show her exquisite figure.

She and a group of sisters waited in front of the gate of the Sifang Palace, waiting for the Xuannu to come out, and then they went to the Purple Cloud Palace with the Xuannu to meet the Emperor of Heaven. After the court, the Emperor of Heaven set up a banquet in Qixia and enjoyed with the immortals. The immortals will offer all kinds of gifts, and this birthday feast is considered to have arrived*.

The Xuannu will meet the Emperor directly, and it will take some effort to dress up. Yingning stood aside to minimize her presence, because on this day every year, Bai Yingqi always had to fight with her. This year, Aunt Xuannu explained that she didn't want to conflict with Bai Yingqi again.

It's just that she doesn't want to conflict with Bai Yingqi, and Bai Yingqi doesn't want to let her go. She was standing in such an inconspicuous corner, and she still let her find out.

Bai Yingqi walked over to her, looked at her with great disdain, and said sarcastically: "On such a grand day, you are actually"
