Feng Mingzhen smiled slightly, "What Miss Meng Er said is reasonable! Yu Guangli saw Zhuang Chong squeezing his eyebrows at him, and he continued, "Soon the palace will hold a dragon ceremony, which will be held in the palace on the outskirts of Beijing, and I hope that the two young ladies can enjoy their faces to watch!" ”

Meng Ruyue asked hesitantly, "Dragon's Ceremony?" ”

Feng Mingzhen nodded, "I still have something to do, so I'll leave first, then I'll see you then!" ”

When Feng Mingzhen walked to the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Atamu had been waiting there for a while, and when he saw Feng Mingzhen coming out, he said happily, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the method you said is really useful, I feel that the Prime Minister's attitude towards me has softened a lot now, and in time, he will definitely be willing to marry his daughter to me!" ”

Feng Ming really smiled and didn't speak.

Atamu said again, "By the way, on the way here, I heard you talk about the Dragon Ceremony, what is it?" ”

Feng Mingzhen took the reins handed over by his entourage and turned over, "You'll know when the time comes!" ”

In the garden, Mu Lingkong listened to Meng Ruyue's explanation, and probably understood what the Dragon Ceremony was.

Nanyue Country is located in the south, Duoze, and the dragon is a unique species of Nanyue Kingdom, also known as the earth dragon, can be amphibious on water and land, huge body, with scale armor, sharp teeth and claws, very fierce.

The dragon dragon ceremony, also known as the dragon slaying ceremony, is carried out by the children of the royal family to compete with the dragon to show the strength of the royal family and the bravery of the children.

"However, the current dragon ceremony is all going through the motions, and the dragon on the ceremony has either been smoothed out of its sharp teeth or been drugged, and it has no lethality. But it is really the first time that the dragon ceremony is held in winter, after all, the dragon will hibernate, and I don't know how the royal family is going to hold it! ”

"Just take a look at what to do!"

In the Chengqian Palace, Nanyue Emperor Fengyu put down the last book of corrections, Qin Gonggong silently stepped forward and pressed his temples, he closed his eyes for a moment, and asked Qin Gonggong, "What time is it?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, it's time for the son!"

"Concubine Ying is still waiting outside?"

"Yes......"

The emperor was silent for a long time, and finally said, "Tell Concubine Ying that Hao'er is her emperor and my emperor, since you are not willing to be mediocre, don't keep shrinking behind!" ”

By the time Gonggong Qin went out to spread the word, Concubine Ying was already pale and shaky in the cold wind, but she still rushed to Gonggong Qin in a few steps and asked anxiously, "What did Your Majesty say!" ”

Gonggong Qin relayed the emperor's words as they were, and after listening to them, Concubine Ying bit her lip and asked, "Is the dragon really not aggressive?" Is there really no danger to the emperor tomorrow? ”

Gonggong Qin had no choice but to repeat what he had said before, "Dragons are all awakened during hibernation, they are already slow, and they are fed with drugs, and they can be killed by standing still!" ”

Concubine Ying nodded, exhaled a breath of white air, and walked away with the support of the maid.

Gonggong Qin looked at her back, patted the cuffs that she had grabbed just now, shook off the dust, shivered coldly, and turned back to the warm hall.

On the day of the Dragon Ceremony, the eldest lady and the late aunt were not interested in this kind of bloody ceremony, and Meng Ruyue pulled Mu Lingkong to guard in front of Meng Huai'an's door, and when he came out of the court clothes, he hurriedly greeted him, "Daddy, we also want to go to see the Dragon Ceremony, take us with us!" ”

Meng Huai'an frowned and looked at Mu Lingkong next to him, "Qing'er is going too?" Haven't you always been uninterested in the Dragon's Canon? ”

Mu Lingkong showed an appropriate smile, "The second sister wants to go and see, but I am idle and bored in the house, so I will follow and take a look!" ”

Meng Ruyue secretly rolled her eyes, she didn't know how many times she had seen the Dragon Ceremony, so she wasn't interested!

Meng Huai'an nodded, "I'll let Meng Ze arrange the carriage!" ”

The palace on the outskirts of Beijing is a little farther away than the Prime Minister's Courtyard, and it is only a little more than an hour away. By the time they arrived at the outskirts of Beijing by carriage, the palace was already bustling with people. Because of the dragon ceremony, in addition to the families of officials, rich ordinary people can also come in with silver for a long time, and this time it was held in the royal palace, which attracted many people.

Meng Huai'an told the two of them a few words, and then went to chat with the ministers they knew well, while Mu Lingkong took Meng Ruyue to the place where the dragon was closed, wanting to see this animal that she had only seen in books.

It's a pity that I haven't seen the dragon yet, so I was stopped by a few forbidden soldiers first, saying that the dragon is dangerous and can't get too close.

Mu Lingkong had no choice but to stand on tiptoe and look inside, but he only saw a few cages covered with black cloth.

Suddenly, a person behind him said with a smile, "Dragons are all awakened by hot spring water, lazy and slow, stupid!" ”

Mu Lingkong turned around, and saw Feng Mingzhen standing behind him with his hands behind him, and today he rarely wore a black cloak, which was actually a strong suit of the same color, and the whole person was like a sword out of the sheath, very handsome and handsome.

Mu Lingkong looked at him, "You're going into the water today?" ”

Feng Ming really smiled, "Yes, it's a pity that it's a pity that you're facing these drugged dragons, if it's in the summer, it's only fun to kill with real knives and guns!" ”

What Mu Lingkong thought of was that it was going to go down into the ice water in winter, it was so cold! She shuddered unconsciously, "I'll look forward to His Highness's demeanor later!" ”

When the two of them walked to the place where the ceremony was held, a wooden platform had been erected by the lake, and His Majesty the Emperor and Concubine Ying were already sitting on the high platform, and the two of them were talking together, and a little farther away sat Prince Atam and Princess Tina.

Below the stage were the families of some officials, or ordinary people, who were separated by the forbidden army far from each other.

Not long after Mu Lingkong and Meng Ruyue stood by the lake, Feng Mingzhen and Feng Minghao arrived at the lake before and after, and there were a few royal children who served in the same color, eager to try.

Several people wore the same clothes, and their temperament and appearance were immediately apparent. Mu Lingkong couldn't help but put his eyes on Feng Mingzhen, and sighed in his heart, such a good look, but it's a pity that she is not a citizen of the Northern Netherworld, otherwise she will definitely be a prince of no way, snatch him into the East Palace, and be her own imperial husband!

I don't know if her gaze is too hot, Feng Mingzhen, who was arranging her bracers, suddenly raised her eyes, walked through the crowd, and looked straight at her.

Mu Lingkong suddenly felt that his cheeks were slightly hot, and the heartbeat in his chest was abnormally chaotic.

And next to him, suddenly the young lady of the family exclaimed, "Why is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince so handsome!" Then it seemed to react suddenly, and it was silent for a moment.

Mu Lingkong lowered his head and smiled, then raised his head and continued to look at the situation in the field, only to see a team of forbidden soldiers carrying five cages covered with black cloth to the enclosed field in the shallow water area of the lake, and when they opened the cages, Mu Lingkong had already slipped into the water before he could see the dragon in the cage.

The emperor on the high platform nodded slowly to the ceremonial officials below, and the ceremonial officials struck a gong, the dragon ceremony, this is the beginning!
