Chapter 214 More than 5,000 demon stars descended into the world
The morning light was dim and the stars were dotted. On New Year's Day, there were densely packed sedan carriages of congratulatory ministers lined up outside the palace gate. All the ministers were waiting outside the gate to open the palace door and pay their respects.
Bei Tangjin opened the curtain and stepped down slowly, his eyes fixed on the sky in the distance, thoughtfully.
"Yurong." While I was thinking, a clear and elegant voice came from behind. It was very pleasant in this quiet morning.
Bei Tangjin slowly turned around and saw a handsome young man wearing a purple python robe and a jade belt coming towards her. The young man was looking at her with a smile.
"In such a cold weather, Jade Rong is not even wearing a big cloak." The handsome young master looked at her red clothes, and her waistband was made of yellow, green, red and purple into a cloud and crane flower brocade belt.
Her hair was tied in a crown, and her outfit was very neat. The red robe made her icy face even more popular.
However, even though she is tall and tall, even though she looks more graceful and graceful in this court dress, it also makes her look too thin and thin.
Beitang Jin frowned and looked at him and said: "All civil and military officials wear such court uniforms, how can their beautiful appearance surpass that?" In fact, she could clearly hear that gentle voice full of care,
But he pretended not to know and spoke in such a cold tone.
Feng Xiqian raised her eyebrows slightly, curled her lips, and smiled, then took off the jade-patterned brocade peacock feather cloak and was about to put it on Bei Tangjin, but Bei Tangjin turned sideways and said: "Your Highness,
This is unreasonable.”
Feng Xilun looked at the big cloak in his hand. It was something he wore, and it was really inappropriate to put it on Bei Tangjin, so he smiled and gave up.
"You're right, it's indeed unreasonable." He said and put the cloak on his body again, tying the belt casually with his white fingers. Bei Tangjin frowned and looked at it. Such a tying method was still a headache for her.
She saw it once. She just found that the other party was not tied properly. She did not say anything and quickly looked away.
Feng Xichun naturally tied it wrongly on purpose. Unfortunately, when he raised his eyes, the other person's eyes did not fall on him, so he was disappointed.
"The auspicious time is coming, Your Majesty, it's better to return to the throne." Bei Tangjin kindly reminded the other party.
Feng Xichun could naturally tell that they were trying to drive him away.
A wry smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and Feng Xiqian said: "An alien star fell from the sky and hit Ziwei. Yurong must be careful today."
His voice was extremely gentle, just like that day. Bei Tangjin was slightly shocked, looked at him, and immediately said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for reminding me."
Feng Xiya smiled, nodded and left.
The other party left so readily, which made Bei Tangjin stunned. He was obviously very surprised that the other party did not make things difficult for him.
Or, this person always tries his best to cause trouble for her. At this time, the other person stops and cares about her, which makes her very uncomfortable.
Hua Jianyue looked at her from a distance, clenching her fists tightly in her hands, controlling herself not to be impulsive, not to disturb her and make her unhappy.
Seeing his good brother approaching, he quickly asked: "Yining, is she prepared?"
Feng Xiling nodded and said, "Looking at her reaction, it's not surprising at all. You should be prepared."
Hua Jianyue finally felt relieved after hearing this.
At this time, the palace door opened, and the princes and ministers filed in from the side. The officials were arranged in order of rank under the guidance of the etiquette officer.
Bei Tangjin was already standing. She was a third-rank official. From a distance, she could see her uncle who was the Duke of the country. There was a faint smile on her lips.
I don’t know how long it took, but the sky gradually became brighter. The morning light was extremely bright, and the faint yellowish color was extremely warm.
Bei Tangjin squinted her eyes and watched. She saw Qin Tianjian walking up to the high platform and shouting something at the top of his lungs. The voice was extremely loud and resounded throughout the sky above the entire Hall of Supreme Harmony.
About half an hour later, the loud and long sound of bells and drums sounded, and Beitang Jin knew that the emperor was coming.
However, she only heard the sound of Ming Yue from a distance, but did not see the emperor coming. She knew that the emperor should be in the Zhonghe Hall at this time.
The sun's rays became brighter and brighter, and after some time passed, three whips sounded from the steps of the silent Hall of Supreme Harmony, and then the Danbi Music played. All the officials knelt down one after another.
After crawling on the ground, the music stopped.
The emperor was dressed in black robes and sat on the throne of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Looking outside the hall, his face was solemn and solemn.
At this time, the entire Hall of Supreme Harmony was quiet. Bei Tangjin heard someone reading a congratulatory message. However, at this moment, there was a loud noise in the sky, interrupting the solemn and sonorous voice of the speaker.
Not only the announcer, but all the officials were extremely shocked. There should not be any sound at this time. It seemed that this violent sound was very inappropriate.
All the ministers couldn't help but raise their heads to look, but they didn't see anything wrong.
The entire Hall of Supreme Harmony returned to silence. It was very quiet, eerily quiet. Everyone was waiting for the emperor to speak.
At this time, the emperor was also stunned. He didn't know where the noise came from. After all, it was nothing important. Therefore, he waved his hand and signaled the congratulations to continue.
So the loud voice of the announcer sounded again, but at this moment, a scream of "Ah" cut through the single sound of the hall, which seemed very abrupt.
The reader was stunned again, his expression was extremely ugly, it was his first time reading this year, so don't interrupt twice, it was very unpleasant.
His eyes stopped on the officials in the audience, and when he glanced back and forth, he also exclaimed "Ah!"
"His court clothes, his court clothes, are so weird, so weird! This is an ominous sign!" At this time, a burst of shouts came and went.
Hearing the official's shout, Bei Tangjin just smiled.
That's right, just now, after the loud noise, the red court uniform she wore suddenly turned into a strange black gas and slowly floated into the air. At this time, she only had a snow-white middle coat on her body.
All civil and military officials were dressed in red court uniforms, but she was dressed in white, which was extremely eye-catching.
"What happened?" At this time, the emperor couldn't sit still anymore. He walked out of the palace. He narrowed his eyes dangerously and scanned the officials lying on the ground. Many officials were already kneeling there and shivering.
You know, on such an occasion, you are not allowed to speak casually, let alone make loud noises? If you don't make a good mistake and anger the emperor, you may be punished with a imperial rod.
The imperial cane of Daxia was a very common method of punishing officials. The torturers had to take off their pants and be tortured in public. The punishment ranged from being bedridden for several months to being beaten to death on the spot. Even if the person was treated in time, he might be paralyzed.
Not long ago, some officials who were impeached by Shangshu and refused to change their words were punished by the emperor with imperial rods. Three of the five were beaten to death. It is said that one of the remaining two was extremely obese and was dug out during treatment.
There was a lot of rotten flesh, and only a big hole was dug under the buttocks, while the other had his legs broken and could no longer walk.
This shows how terrifying Daxia's imperial staff is.
However, no matter how cruel the imperial staff is, what these scholar-officials fear most is to take off their pants in front of everyone. This is a great shame.
Therefore, even if the court uniform disappeared, Bei Tang Jin was still prostrate on the ground, extremely calm and unhurried.
"Your Majesty, his court uniform turned into a plume of black smoke and disappeared!" the reader immediately reported back.
The emperor immediately stopped his gaze on Bei Tangjin, frowned deeply, and asked with great confusion: "Yurong, where is your court uniform?"
Beitang Jin raised his head slightly and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, my court uniform turned into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared as Lord Zhang said."
The emperor's face was still extremely shocked, and he asked: "It's so good, why are the court uniforms missing?" This is too weird!
Beitang Jin said: "I don't know what happened. It's just that after the loud noise just now, some spots appeared on my court uniform, and then they disappeared."
When the emperor heard this, he was even more shocked and said: "How could such a thing happen? It seems that there is something fishy about that loud noise." He turned to look at Qin Tianjian and asked: "What does Liu Aiqing think is going on?
?”
Qin Tianjian replied: "Your Majesty, I observed the sky at night the other day and found something strange in the sky. I have never seen it since I was born. I observed it carefully for several days and for the first time concluded that it was an alien star falling from the sky. And this alien star
It is extremely bright, and its orbit is directly colliding with the star Ziwei. I think this celestial phenomenon is a very dangerous one."
The emperor was shocked when he heard this, his face turned pale, and he asked: "You said that the alien star directly collided with the Ziwei star?"
Qin Tianjian nodded and explained: "Your Majesty, this celestial phenomenon shows that a demon star has appeared in Daxia and is threatening the country. But I have been thinking about it for several days and don't know where to find this demon star. Today I have found the source. Your Majesty
, General Yurong’s court uniform suddenly disappeared, this is God’s warning, it can be seen that this demon star is General Yurong.”
When Bei Tangjin heard this, a sneer slipped from the corner of his mouth. Since ancient times, the Purple Star has symbolized the emperor. But a few days ago, an alien star suddenly appeared in the sky, and its route was to hit the Purple Star. So this is the Qintian
The prison officer said that the demon star wants to overthrow the Daxia Dynasty. If you find the demon star and eliminate it, you can save the country of Daxia.
What a wonderful explanation!
It seemed extremely reasonable. Among the hundreds of officials, only her court uniform suddenly disappeared, and the disappearance was so strange, just in time for the vision of a demon star descending from the sky.
As expected, the emperor's face was so gloomy that he stopped at Bei Tangjin, thinking about how to deal with it, and seemed to be wondering if this woman was a demon star.
Feng Xiling raised her head and took a look at the emperor's face and the sinister look in his eyes, and felt bad.
The emperor used to protect Bei Tangjin because he regarded her as his future daughter-in-law. However, Bei Tangjin has refused to marry and refuted the emperor's face. The emperor has always been very good-looking, how can he not be resentful? If the emperor holds a grudge.
If you don't know her, this is a good time to deal with it.
Even though Beitang Jin has great military exploits, Daxia has no shortage of outstanding generals! Beitang Jin is in a critical situation at this time!
Moreover, the emperor is going to deal with Bei Tangjin now.
Feng Xiling tightened her sleeves. There was an obvious flaw in the whole thing, which was the loud noise. However, if someone had done it deliberately, they must have arranged it long ago, and there would definitely be no clues.
However, in order to delay some time, he could only bring up this matter. After all, he really didn't understand those celestial phenomena, and he couldn't explain them from the celestial phenomena.
In the dead silence, just when all the officials thought that the emperor was going to deal with Bei Tangjin, an elegant and lazy voice remembered, "Your Majesty, I thought that the sudden disappearance of General Yurong's court uniform was just a coincidence. Yu
General Rong is a general of the Great Xia who has made countless military exploits and made the borders stable. How could he be a demon star? If General Yurong is a demon star, how can he explain the lucky star? Therefore, I believe that the reason why General Yurong’s court uniform disappeared
, the tricky part is the sudden loud noise. Therefore, I implore your majesty to find out the source of the loud noise. Someone must be trying to frame General Yurong."
What he said was serious, but his voice was extremely lazy, with a very confusing tail tone that made people's bones soften after hearing it.
When the emperor heard what Feng Xichuan said, his originally gloomy face immediately changed to a happy look, and said: "Yining is right. Come and investigate the source of the loud noise just now."
As soon as he finished speaking, Eunuch Gao winked at his men, and soon two groups of people went out to check.
After the person who ordered him left, the emperor looked at Feng Xichuan with a smile, and frowned again, because he felt that it was really not good to look down at Feng Xichuan, so he glanced to the left and right and said: "This person is coming, Prince Ming."
Give me a seat!"
As soon as he finished speaking, before anyone around him could make a move, an old-fashioned voice sounded, extremely dull, saying: "Your Majesty, before the congratulatory gifts are finished, it is really inappropriate for you to give me the throne of Mingwang!"
The emperor frowned and looked at the source of the sound, his throat moved, and he said: "Sir, what you said makes sense. I went beyond it."
At this time, Bei Tangjin raised his head and glanced at the emperor's expression, which was very reluctant.
The gentleman the emperor just spoke of is Lord Zheng, the capital of the dynasty. In the entire dynasty, the weight of the words of the capital of Zheng is the most important.
Not to mention that Zheng Shufu was the emperor's teacher, so the emperor never called Zheng Shufu as Zheng Shufu, but respectfully called him sir. Moreover, Zheng Shufu was a talented statesman and the backbone of Daxia. The entire Daxia
Half of the political power of the Zheng family is in his hands, and he can be said to have all the power. Therefore, the Zheng family is very prominent, and even the servants of the Zheng family are extremely prosperous.
Although Zheng Jufu is a man of great power and power, he is a clean figure. Even though he is the elder brother of the current queen, Zheng Jufu is a very low-key person, with a reserved and deep personality, and rarely loses his temper.
Therefore, for such a talented and honest person, the emperor naturally trusted him and respected him very much.
However, Bei Tangjin's eyes fell on Feng Xiyang's body, and his eyebrows tightened.
Prince Ming actually spoke for her at this moment.
You know, on this occasion, the congratulatory gifts have not yet been completed. If the emperor does not ask questions, he is not allowed to speak, but...
Even though the emperor did not blame King Ming, but...
In an instant, a strange feeling surged into his heart, and Beitang Jinmei tightened his fists to suppress it.
"Your Majesty, you can continue the greetings. When the ceremony is over, His Highness Prince Ming can take his seat." The deep and deep voice of Zheng Fufu sounded again, which made the frowning emperor's eyes light up and said: "Sir, you are right, yes! Chao
Hey, keep going!" He said, waving his hands to the people on the left and right.
The reader was stunned for a moment, and then began to read again. After finishing the reading, he entered the table and left the table.
At this time, the emperor sat back on the throne, and the music started playing again. The princes, princes, and officials knelt three times and kowtowed nine times. After the ceremony, they returned to their original positions and stood. The music stopped.
"Give me a seat!" the emperor said loudly.
The emperor's mouth curved and he looked at the purple-clothed prince. He saw him walking towards him step by step, but he did not sit down. Instead, he said: "Your Majesty, I feel really hot wearing such a big cloak. Just now, I have been
Seeing that General Yurong was shivering from the cold, I thought that if I took off this cloak, I would leave it alone instead of putting it on General Yurong to protect her from the wind and cold."
Feng Xichun's voice was still so elegant and lazy, and there was a strange smile on the corner of her mouth. The emperor was very surprised by the other party's behavior, and thought to himself: Could it be that Yi Ning is interested in Bei Tang Jin? Otherwise, he just interceded for her.
Not to mention, he still had to put his cloak on her body at this time.
However, listening to his tone, there was nothing special about it. Moreover, he really couldn't refuse such a request, no matter what his purpose was. So the emperor nodded and said: "King Ming is considerate of his ministers.
I am really happy, the jade face is a woman's body, and it is true that it cannot withstand the wind and cold. This great cloak of Prince Ming can be said to be a timely help!" the emperor said with a smile.
Feng Xiqian smiled lazily and said: "Your Majesty is really kind." After he said that, the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more evil. He glanced at the emperor. The emperor was happy for a while, but he turned around and went out.
The princes and princes had already sat down, and Hua Jianyue also sat down at this time. He looked at Feng Xiqing's elegant back and felt depressed for a while.
Wearing a long cloak is not allowed on such an occasion. Even if the emperor is very optimistic about him, he does not dare to go beyond the etiquette. Therefore, even if he knows that his sweetheart is standing in the cold wind, there is nothing he can do. Fortunately, for his own good
The brother had the foresight and came wearing a big cloak.
The officials had already sat down and were looking at Tang Jin in the north, discussing whether the female general was a demon star. However, at this moment, they saw that the prince in purple was too lazy to walk down from the tall white marble platform.
Below, he is tall and extremely dazzling.
Many officials immediately lowered their heads when they saw him, and the person who just spoke also closed his mouth.
Under the attention of all the ministers, Feng Xiya smiled slightly and looked at Bei Tangjin, who was wearing Chinese clothes.
Naturally, this woman did not have the trembling appearance he just mentioned. How could such a proud person let herself be embarrassed among the officials?
Her expression was quiet, her back was straight, and even though she was wearing a white coat, she was calm and composed, as if she was not congratulating her, but drinking tea at her own home, so calm and calm.
Feng Xichun always became the center of attention wherever she went. Bei Tangjin knew something strange must have happened due to this sudden change in the atmosphere, so she raised her eyes and met Feng Xichuan's gentle and caring eyes.
eye.
She frowned.
The other party looked as if he was coming towards her.
Therefore, she stood up immediately, and at the same time all the officials stood up and saluted Feng Xizhen, but Feng Xizhen only helped Bei Tangjin up, and his fingers held hers.
Her fingers were so cold. He felt very distressed, so he tightened his grip a little more, put it to his mouth and breathed for her.
