The sky was slightly bright, and Sima Hongyan was woken up by a commotion. As soon as she sat up, Shi Jinyan entered her room and whispered, "Get up quickly!" It's time for the Holy Decree! ”

Sima Hongyan was startled, hurriedly turned over from the bed and got off the ground, roughly reshaped his face, and hurried to the hall.

I saw that the three eunuchs in the hall were already standing at the door waiting, and the eunuch in the center was still holding the holy decree in his hand. Sima Hongyan stepped forward and was about to kneel down to receive the order. Who knew that the eunuch stopped her and said, "Miss Sima, don't worry, it's better to wait for everyone to arrive, and it's not too late for our family to announce the decree." ”

At this time, someone had already woken up and rushed to the hall, and when they heard the eunuch's words, they turned and hurried back, apparently to wake up the others.

Soon, all the thirty-six people in the palace arrived, although they were all a little embarrassed, but they couldn't take care of it. Under the leadership of Sima Hongyan, they knelt down together and listened to the will.

The eunuch counted the number of people, and then unfolded the decree and read it in a soft voice.

The emperor came so early to give the holy decree, it turned out to encourage everyone to come. Although the words in the will are obscure, Sima Hongyan can also hear the general meaning. It is nothing more than that the hopes of the country are pinned on you, and you must live up to the emperor's high expectations, work hard for the country, and so on.

After Sima Hongyan took the holy decree, the eunuch had no intention of leaving, but waved his hand behind him. The two eunuchs behind him immediately turned around and opened the palace gate. Then, dozens of palace maids each held a tray, walked in gently and skillfully, and stood on both sides of everyone.

Everyone peeked and saw that the trays were covered with black cloths, and they couldn't see what was underneath.

Sima Hongyan was feeling strange, and the eunuch in the center said: "In order to encourage you to win a big victory in the competition, the emperor's special internal affairs supervisor has tailored a brocade dress for all talents, and also rewarded you with a pair of gold waist cards engraved with your names, so that you can enter and exit freely in the school martial arts field." In addition, according to the distinction of the content of the competition, the emperor has also arranged some other gifts for you, please go to the palace people to receive them according to your name. ”

Unexpectedly, Emperor Yanzhen was quite thoughtful and prepared gifts for everyone. Everyone couldn't help but be overjoyed, and went to the palace maid to find their names.

As soon as Sima Hongyan stood up, he saw a golden sign with his name written on it in the tray of the first palace maid. She was also curious about what Emperor Yanzhen would prepare for herself, so she saluted the eunuch and walked towards the tray with her name.

The palace maid seemed to know Sima Hongyan, and when she saw her coming, she bowed slightly and lifted the tray forward.

Confirming that his name was correct, Sima Hongyan picked up the gold medal and lifted the black cloth on the tray.

The first thing I saw was a purple brocade robe, but the luxury of this brocade robe surprised Sima Hongyan at that time.

The purple brocade dress is neatly arranged in the center of the tray with the neckline facing up, and there are shoulder pads on both sides, and the shoulder pads are embroidered with a flying swallow on each side.

Sima Hongyan took a closer look and found that the two Feiyan were actually embroidered with gold thread, and the handiwork was fine and vivid. Sima Hongyan couldn't hide his affection, and lifted the brocade suit on the plate. The clothes were unfolded, and Sima Hongyan almost exclaimed in surprise when he saw the whole picture.

It turned out that not only the shoulder pads, but all the patterns on the entire brocade dress were embroidered with gold thread. And this dress has a unique design, and I don't know what material is used, so it feels unusually light in my hand.

At this moment, there were exclamations in the hall, and it seemed that the others were also startled by the clothes that were so preciously made. Sima Hongyan also noticed that there were two obvious golden characters "Yanling" on the collar of the clothes! Sima Hongyan couldn't help but start imagining what he would look like when he put on this outfit.

Seeing everyone's expressions of disbelief, the eunuch seemed to have expected such an effect. Said proudly to everyone: "This clothing is called 'Tencel Wrap', which is hand-woven with the most precious Yanling Tencel, which not only avoids water and fire, but also has some effects of relaxing muscles and invigorating blood." This is specially ordered by the emperor for this war of the five kingdoms, and I hope you will not let down the emperor's painstaking efforts. ”

Sima Hongyan thought to himself that Emperor Yanzhen had really made a lot of money for this Five Kingdoms War, and I am afraid that some people will never see a palm-sized piece of this material in their lives, but this time they actually made dozens of clothes out, which shows Emperor Yanzhen's determination to win this time.

No matter how precious the clothes are, they are meant to be worn after all, and after the initial surprise, Sima Hongyan calmed down after a while. She slipped her clothes over her shoulders and looked at the rest of the tray.

I saw that in addition to clothes, there were many things in the tray. Sima Hongyan first picked up a small white porcelain vase, looked back and forth inexplicably, and couldn't guess what it was for.

At this time, the palace maid said softly: "This is a medicine to protect the throat, because Miss Sima will use her voice more in the debate competition, so when the girl feels that her throat is tired, she can take this medicine." ”

Even the medicine to protect his throat was prepared, and Sima Hongyan was really shocked by Emperor Yanzhen's meticulous preparations. I thought to myself: "It seems that the emperor has taken into account all the factors that may lead to failure." In other words, if you lose, I'm afraid you won't be able to find the slightest objective excuse. ”

Putting down the porcelain vase, Sima Hongyan picked up a bracelet on the plate again, checked it in his hand, and found that it was all silver. The palace maid said at this time: "This is a silver bracelet, which can be used to test poison!" ”

There were still a few things that Sima Hongyan hadn't seen yet, so Ban Lingruo ran over with her tray in her arms, and said to Sima Hongyan with a happy face: "Sister! Sister, look! ”

Sima Hongyan turned his head to look at him, and saw Ban Lingruo holding a long sword and looking at him with a smile.

It seems that this long sword is different, Sima Hongyan took a serious look, but found nothing special. The scabbard is azure all over, and it is the same length as an ordinary longsword. The hilt of the sword is slightly different, and the gauntlet is cast in the shape of a cloud, and the grip is slightly uneven, so it is easy to hold. Other than that, there's nothing strange about it.

Seeing the inexplicable expression on Sima Hongyan's face, Ban Lingruo guessed that Sima Hongyan might not know this sword, so he said excitedly: "Sister, this is the 'Qingning Sword'!" The emperor actually gave me this 'Qingning Sword'! ”

Seeing Ban Lingruo's extreme excitement, Sima Hongyan was puzzled: "Even if it's a sword, you don't have to be excited like this, right?" ”

It seems that this sister is really illiterate!

Ban Lingruo put the plate in his hand on the table next to him with an anxious face, and pulled out the "Qingning Sword".

As soon as the sword came out of its sheath, Sima Hongyan immediately felt a chill coming towards him. Not only Sima Hongyan, but even the people next to him were so excited by this chill that they shivered, and they all looked sideways.

The sword body is like steel but not steel, like jade and not jade, emitting a light blue light. The blade is extremely thin, and it must be unusually sharp. However, Sima Hongyan looked at it and felt that he might be able to break if he fell to the ground.

Ban Lingruo raised his sword and said with a straight face: "The Qingning Sword is made of Northern Spirit Xuantie, and it was a gift from the Northern Spirit Kingdom to Yanling back then. I have always collected it in the palace, but I didn't expect the emperor to give it to me this time! ”

Such a gift can no longer be described as precious, Sima Hongyan said: "Who said it was given to you?" Maybe the emperor is temporarily borrowing you for use, and after the competition, he will still take it back. ”

At this time, the eunuch standing aside said: "Girl, don't worry, this gift is for all talents, and after the competition, the emperor will never go back." This is what the emperor himself said! The emperor's golden mouth and jade words, how can it be child's play? ”

Hearing the eunuchs say this, Ban Lingruo was even more overjoyed, and even her eyes were shining.

Sima Hongyan looked at the situation of the others and found that the things that Emperor Yanzhen gave to everyone were different. Some people who are excellent in literature but don't know how to martial arts send a folding fan, and the folding fan knows at a glance that it is by no means a vulgar thing. Some of them are good at martial arts, so they give them the magic weapons that he himself has in hand. For example, if Ban Ling is good at using a sword, what he gets is a long sword, while Guo Zidi is good at using a knife, and what he gives is a long knife.

In short, everyone gets the items they like the most or are best at, and from this point of view, Emperor Yanzhen knows everyone here very well.

Thinking of this, Sima Hongyan smiled secretly, he didn't expect Emperor Yanzhen to use the information of the Purple Butterfly Report to create such a surprise for everyone, it was really well-intentioned!
