Chapter 36 The Princess's Heart
The lantern has eight petals, which are held by eight girls. When the eight petals are closed, they form a huge lotus flower.
Suddenly the lotus flower bloomed, and the stamen moved slightly. At this time, people were surprised to find that the stamen was a woman in colorful clothes.
When the woman appeared, the audience cheered. That person was the eldest princess of the Fengming Empire. Long Chen took a look and found that she looked good and deserved a compliment.
After the eldest princess appeared, she stretched out her jade hand, and two elegiac couplets appeared. The first couplet was: God bless Fengming, and the second couplet was: Guotai Minan, which made the audience burst into cheers.
Long Chen smiled slightly, as an imperial princess, it was sad enough, like a group of crickets living in a small jar.
Fighting all day long, but think about yourself, why not? If you don't fight with others, you will be stepped on by others.
It's fine if you just step on it, the point is that he wants to step on you to death, it has nothing to do with hatred, good or bad, maybe this is the most primitive evil in human nature.
While Long Chen was feeling emotional, the Second Princess appeared, and Long Chen was so distracted that he didn't see how the Second Princess appeared, which made Long Chen very regretful.
But next was Chu Yao's lantern, Long Chen widened his eyes, afraid that he would miss something.
"boom"
First there was a bang, and a firework shot up into the sky, lighting up the sky and making all the girls cheer.
But just as Huan Huan thought about it, he suddenly saw a huge shadow appearing in the sky, a kite made of a giant dragon roaring towards him.
At the same time, on the opposite side of the giant dragon, a colorful phoenix flew over with gorgeous wings, sprinkled the sky with gold powder, just like a real phoenix descended into the world.
"Wow! So beautiful"
With the colorful powder all over the sky, a dragon and a phoenix complement each other, like a myth, bringing everyone into a strange world.
"boom"
A dragon and a phoenix hovered and danced, and then landed slowly. A huge white light was ejected from the mouth of the dragon and phoenix. The white light exploded, and the ribbons flew.
When the ribbons were gone, a beauty in ancient costume slowly appeared in front of everyone, with willow eyebrows, phoenix eyes, and autumn water floating through the ages, such a peerless beauty.
"call"
As soon as the three princesses appeared, the whole scene suddenly boiled over. Many princes had long heard that the three princesses were so beautiful that they overwhelmed the country. Today they finally saw the real face of the three princesses, and they shouted wildly with excitement.
Long Chen stared at the three princesses and was stunned for a while. This was the first time Long Chen saw Chu Yao who had deliberately dressed up.
Chu Yao's beautiful eyes wandered around, and she looked around in the crowd. Suddenly, her beautiful eyes lit up, her jade hand shook, and a round ball slowly flew out, even going straight to Long Chen.
Snapped!
Long Chen reached out to catch the ball, and saw a small tail on the ball.
The audience was suddenly silent, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Long Chen. The queen mother's face changed slightly, but she didn't say anything.
But if it is said that the person with the ugliest complexion is Xia Changfeng, the prince of Da Xia, even though he wanted to show a light and calm appearance, he really couldn't do it, and his whole face turned green with anger .
The queen mother had already decided to marry Chu Yao to Xia Changfeng, but Chu Yao's performance today clearly meant that the dragon and the phoenix were auspicious, and the ball in her hand was directly thrown to Long Chen.
Originally, a ball had no special meaning, but with the foreshadowing of the lanterns in front, it was completely different. It was exactly the same as the ancient procedure of throwing a hydrangea ball to choose a husband.
At this time, despite Xia Changfeng's efforts to control it, he still couldn't stop his body shaking, and the veins on the back of his hands burst out.
"Changfeng, be patient." Wei Cang glanced at Xia Changfeng and said.
"Master, don't worry, Changfeng can bear it." Xia Changfeng nodded, but the trembling in his voice still couldn't be concealed.
At this time, Xia Changfeng wanted to kill Long Chen alive, and Long Chen also noticed the strange eyes of everyone.
Among the people present, only Master Yun Qi had a smile on his face, while the others were either complicated or jealous.
Long Chen looked at Chu Yao in the field, saw her beautiful eyes smiling, looking at him affectionately, and gently pointed to the ball in Long Chen's hand with her jade hand.
At this moment, Long Chen understood that it was actually a firework. He stretched out his hand and pulled the small tail on the ball, and threw the ball high into the sky.
"boom"
A brilliant ray of light spread out, illuminating the entire square. After the ray of light dissipated, two flashing writings appeared in the sky.
"Dragon travels all over the world and travels thousands of miles, Phoenix leaves and parasol trees accompany Kyushu"
Looking at the two lines of words on the sky that have not been scattered for a long time, Xia Changfeng finally couldn't control it, and crushed the teacup in his hand.
"Long Chen, if I don't tear you into pieces, I won't be called Xia Changfeng, and Chu Yao, you bitch, I'll make your life worse than death."
Veins popped up on Xia Changfeng's face, and Chu Yao's actions made him more ashamed than slapping him hard.
The Empress Dowager's expression was also extremely ugly. She did not expect Chu Yao to be so bold as to show her love to a man in such a public place.
Long Chen was also stunned, and saw Chu Yao standing on the stage in the distance. At this time, Chu Yao's pretty face was covered with red clouds, but she had a firm expression on her face.
Looking at Long Chen, tears flowed slowly from his beautiful eyes, which made Long Chen feel a pain in his heart: Is she desperate?The idea of death actually sprouted, and he wanted to express his wish before he died?
Seeing Chu Yao's face full of tears, Long Chen's mind suddenly went blank, he stood up suddenly, and shouted loudly: "Life and death will never abandon the sea of blood, the dragon and the phoenix depend on each other to the point of death!"
Long Chen's roar, like Hong Zhong Dalu, shocked everyone's heart. His roar revealed a firm will, and a determination to die rather than surrender.
Chu Yao's delicate body shook, her jade hands covered her cherry lips, and tears flowed from her beautiful eyes. Originally, she only hoped that she could express her wishes in the last days. She didn't ask for anything extravagantly, but only hoped that Long Chen would Can understand her heart.
But Long Chen's answer made him fall into a desperate situation. For a while, Chu Yao was moved and remorseful, feeling that he had harmed Long Chen.
"The third princess is tired, come and help her down," the queen mother said coldly, suppressing the anger in her heart.
Five guards came over, and just as they were about to invite Chu Yao away, Master Yun Qi said flatly: "Queen Mother, you are wrong.
It is a good thing for young people to dare to love and hate, Chu Yao, come on, if you don’t dislike it, sit next to the old man.”
The empress dowager's face changed, he did not expect that Master Yun Qi, who has always been indifferent to world affairs, would actually intervene in the affairs of the empire.
Seeing Master Yun Qi speak, Chu Yao couldn't help being overjoyed, she didn't ask Master Yun Qi to protect her, but she thought Master Yun Qi could protect Long Chen.
Thinking of this, Chu Yao slowly knelt down on both knees, but before she knelt on the ground, Master Yun Qi stretched out his hand, and a gentle force lifted her up.
"Children, we are all our own people, so we don't need these common etiquettes," Yun Qi said, pulling Chu Yao to sit beside him.
But what is strange is that Wei Cang, who was originally at odds with Yun Qi, just looked at him coldly, without saying a word.
Although the Queen Mother was angry, she didn't want to offend Yun Qi because of such a trivial matter. Without the support of the Alchemist Guild, no matter how powerful the country is, it would soon fall apart, so she could only endure it.
However, as the empress dowager, she had a deep scheming mind, she kept her face calm and said with a smile: "In that case, let's continue the show."
After the queen mother said this, Shi Feng beside Long Chen stood up and stretched his muscles and bones: "Hey, it's finally time for me to appear on the stage."
The procedure in previous years is that after the princess presents the lantern, there will be a grand competition between the sons and daughters to compete for the title of Fengming's number one warrior.
"Wait a minute, Queen Mother, the old man came all the way from Daxia, happened to catch up with the Lantern Festival, and specially brought a wonderful show to the Queen Mother," Wei Cang said suddenly.
"Oh? The program brought by the master must be wonderful." After a moment of surprise, the queen mother smiled.
"This is my incompetent apprentice. He is 17 years old this year, and he is already a real alchemist." Wei Cang was talking, but his eyes were fixed on Gu Cang, especially the words "genuine and real", these four words were extremely important .
Everyone looked at Long Chen, as long as they were not fools, they would know that Gu Cang was referring to Sang Huai, meaning that Long Chen was just a parallel importer.
Long Chen was qualified as an alchemist, and many people were deeply skeptical of his true strength. After all, Long Chen's alchemy was inside the guild, and the outside world didn't know about it. Therefore, most people thought that Long Chen was just an alchemist. If you are lucky with shit, you may not have any real talents.
After all, he has been called trash for too long, and Long Chen has risen too fast recently. Many people have doubts that there is a big hand behind Long Chen, and that big hand is likely to be Master Yun Qi.
But no matter how miraculous Master Yun Qi is, it is impossible to turn a trash into a alchemist in just over two months.
When Long Chen heard Wei Cang's words, a sneer appeared on his face: the show is coming.
Yun Qi didn't speak, just listened to Wei Cang continue: "Today, let the little disciple make a fool of himself, and make a batch of pills for everyone on the spot."
Hearing Wei Cang's words, the audience burst into cheers. Alchemists have a high status. Everyone present had only heard of alchemy, but had never seen it with their own eyes.
They are full of reverence and curiosity for this profession. It would be a great opportunity for them to see the formation of a pill with their own eyes.
"But the so-called good things come in pairs. Bai Chi represents my Great Xia Alchemist Guild. The younger generation of alchemists, I don't know about Fengming Guild. Is there someone who will show their hand?" Wei Cang finished speaking and looked at Master Yun Qi.
"She is your apprentice, but Long Chen is not my apprentice, so your thoughts may be in vain," Master Yun Qi said flatly.
Long Chen's heart moved, is it because of this that Yun Qi has been refusing to accept him as a disciple?
"Just for fun, it's all just to add to the fun, and it's not for nothing"
While Wei Cang was talking, a jade bottle suddenly appeared in his hand, and there was actually a flame as thick as a thumb in the bottle, which was twisting non-stop.
"This is the beast fire of the second-level monster Yanbao. Whoever wins, I will reward him with it."
Xia Baichi looked at the beast fire, and there was excitement in her eyes. She had been thinking about the beast fire for a long time, but unexpectedly, Wei Cang was finally willing to take it out.
Wei Cang shook the beast fire in his hand, and said to Long Chen in the audience: "Boy, how about it, come up to play?"
Faced with such an obvious temptation, everyone shook their heads in their hearts. This behavior of Wei Cang seems to be incompatible with the status of a master, it is too low-level.
Sure enough, Long Chen squinted at Wei Cang, his face was full of ridicule and disdain, and he just spit out a word lightly.
"it is good"
"puff"
Fatty Yu and the others couldn't help but spit, Brother Long, where's your integrity?
Under everyone's strange eyes, Long Chen walked up to the stage with three steps, and said to Xia Baichi carelessly:
"Your master said, let me play with you, you say, how to play?"
