Chapter 177: Harboring a ghost
The disheartened prince of the East China Sea Shark finally waited for the will and ordered them to meet him in the early morning of the next day.
After receiving the will, the eldest prince's face was still very solemn.
The envoy looked at his prince and comforted: "Your Highness, don't be anxious, the empress agrees to receive us, there is still hope." ”
"Hope? What hope is there to marry me? How is it possible, the holy decree of the empress when she was canonized as the emperor spread all over the world, haven't you seen it? She is a god clan, how can she put us mermaid clan in her eyes? The eldest prince said, "The Sea Emperor, it is really our good Sea Emperor, it is really hateful to dare to use the Ruyi Bead to cross the catastrophe." ”
"It's come to this, there's no other way, and there's no way for us to do it." The envoy said, "Your Highness, what did the high priest say to you this time?" ”
"Three ways, the first is accepted by the empress as a noble monarch and gives birth to a new sea emperor, but this road may not work, the empress can't agree, the second way, sneak into the Phoenix Temple and steal the Phoenix Divine Yuan, this may succeed, but the risk is extremely high, and the third way, I can't say." After speaking, the eldest prince did not speak, but stared at his fingers in a daze.
But the envoy saw the viciousness in the eyes of his master. This master has been different from others since he was a child, ruthless but thoughtful, and was brought up by the high priest, and won the appreciation of the high priest, but the high priest is also the same person as the great prince, and the minister's eyes rolled, this can not be said The third way must not be a good thing, maybe it is still a matter of losing his head, and he must leave a way back for himself, so as not to be implicated. The Empress of the Protoss is not an idle person. You have to prepare for it in advance.
The two people in this room were not talking, each with their own little abacus, and they each had a ghost for a while.
In the early morning of the second day, after the bell of the court meeting rang, the morning dynasty began, and the prince and envoys of the merman clan were finally taken by the Ministry of Rites and entered the Zhaoyang Palace.
On the high seat, the goddess of the royal family, dressed in a dragon robe, lowered her eyes and looked at the people below. Just that glance made the eldest prince of the merman clan stunned, the merman was born with the aura of the sea, and he was already a very beautiful creature in the world, but when he saw the empress of the god clan, he found out what beauty was.
Her beauty, with aura, with majesty, with magnificence, with solemnity, with tenderness, with fortitude, that flawless face, those eyes that are extremely smart, and the golden shining phoenix around her neck, accompanied by her radiant crown, set off the majesty that cannot be underestimated, flowing out of the magnificence of the country and the city, telling the unparalleled grace in the world.
The eldest prince of the merman was stunned for a while, and then came back to his senses in the harmony of the ceremonial official, and knelt down in front of the empress sitting on the high seat: "The East China Sea merman clan Leng Xiaoran greeted Her Majesty the Empress of the Protoss, long live Your Majesty, long live long live." ”
Nalan Feng Ember lowered his eyes, his gaze fell on the top of his head that was cold and green without a trace of variegation, squinted his eyes slightly, and then said slowly in a voice that couldn't hear any emotion at all: "Flat." ”
After Leng Xiaoran heard this, he stood up and looked up at Nalan Fengshen on the high seat, but saw that she was still lowering her eyes, and she couldn't see any emotional changes, and there was no expression on her beautiful face. For a while, the atmosphere in the hall was a little awkward.
Nalan Fengyan waved his hand: "Luo Shangshu, you continue, receive foreign ministers, and still use me to teach you?" ”
Luo Jinli was named by his master, stunned for a moment, and then continued: "The envoys of the East China Sea are presenting. ”
The envoy knelt down again, holding a delicate box in his hand, opened it gently, and colorful light flowed out: "This is the treasure of the merman race, the glass beads, and I am dedicated to Her Majesty the Empress." ”
Xuan Ruo on the side was just about to stretch out his hand to pick it up, when he heard a voice: "The glass beads are made by digging out the eyeballs of the shark people in the South China Sea, but this bloody thing is said to be a treasure?" Your Excellency, aren't you entertaining my emperor? ”
Nalan Feng Ash raised his eyes, and when he saw that it was Nalan Hanyi who spoke, he couldn't help but smile.
Immediately afterwards, Nalan Hanqi also spoke: "Killing the South China Sea mermaid and gouging out other people's eyes, your habit is a bit strange." ”
Nalan Fengyan shook his head funny, this time Donghai was married, the most unhappy thing was the two of them, Nalan Fengyan was actually very puzzled, in this matter, the most unhappy should be Xu Yan, what are you two unhappy about?
The envoy was even more embarrassed when he heard this.
As soon as Nalan Feng's hand was raised, the glass beads flew up. fell into the hands of Nalan Feng Ember, Nalan Feng Ember pinched the bead with his right index finger and middle finger, looked at the light, and found that the bead was brilliant and crystal clear, and then smiled: "Bloody is bloody, but it's also a baby, na, let's play with it." As he spoke, he put the glass bead in Nalan Xuyan's hand.
Leng Xiaoran saw this scene, his eyes narrowed, and he had an indescribable feeling in his heart, not because of the bead, but because of the empress's expression when she looked at the emperor, and the smile was so bright.
Nalan Feng Ember turned around and said again in an emotionless voice: "Tell me, what do you want?" Let's see if we can meet the needs of our guests from afar. ”
"The eldest prince of my clan has admired Her Majesty's demeanor since he was a child, so he has traveled thousands of miles to serve Her Majesty the Empress, that is, to be a concubine, and it is also a blessing for my clan." The envoy knelt down and spoke again.
"Well, I have admired you since I was a child, envoy, are you not honest when you say this? I haven't been in the palace since I was a child, I have been away from Beijing for fifteen years, and even my own father and mother think that I am dead in a foreign country, but you say that you admire me, how can you admire me? Do you admire the little girl who was dying of illness? "Nalan Feng Ember said this trickyly. The fact that she was seriously ill and left Beijing was deliberately exaggerated by the Du family, and the rumors spread all over the sky, and before she appeared in public, no one in the Jianghu court knew that she was still alive, and even, the whole Tianque thought she was dead. This envoy said admiration, admiration, admiration, admiration of a "dead man"?
The envoy was choked by Nalan Feng's embers, stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but feel gloomy in his heart, what a powerful woman.
"Please forgive Your Majesty, Your Majesty, and I, Donghai, am willing to serve the Empress forever." Leng Xiaoran knelt down.
"Well, it's still what it looks like." Nalan Feng Ember nodded, and then continued: "Concubine, ah, I just want to be a concubine, isn't there a little wronged Your Highness." ”
"It is a great blessing for the subordinates to be able to serve the empress." Leng Xiaoran said.
"Well, you're a sensible one." Nalan Feng's voice still couldn't hear any emotion: "It's just one thing that I need His Highness to answer my questions." ”
"Your Majesty, please speak." Leng Xiaoran said.
"Can I receive the edict of my accession to the throne?" Nalan Feng Ember asked.
"Back to Your Majesty, the world will share Your Majesty's grace." Leng Xiaoran said.
"Since you are with Mu Zhen's grace, why does Your Highness resist the decree?" When Nalan Feng Ember said this, his voice had a hint of coldness.
"Your Majesty, where did you say this, the ministers were terrified." Leng Xiaoran said in horror.
"It seems that my edict is not clearly written, this is my fault." Nalan Feng Ember smiled slightly: "Then I will bother to say it again: the queen of the emperor of me is the Xuyan of the Nalan clan." If you don't understand, I'll make it clearer, Nalan Xuyan is my only emperor and queen, and I don't have a harem. Do you understand that? When Nalan Feng Ember said this, he leaned forward and stared intently at Leng Xiaoran's eyes.
When Leng Xiaoran met her eyes, Nalan Feng Ember smiled, but Leng Xiaoran shuddered for no reason.
"You come from afar, it's not difficult for me to live in the palace, I also do my best to be a landlord, as for your affairs, when do you want to tell me, come to me again." Nalan Feng Ember stood up: "Luo Jinli, you are so good to receive His Royal Highness the Great Prince." Then he smiled and stretched out his hand to Nalan Xuyan, pulling his head and walking out of the hall without looking back.
"Your Majesty retreats." Li Yu's voice came.
After the ministers bowed, they also left.
Leng Xiaoran was stunned, what did the empress's last sentence mean, did she know something?
