Chapter 123: The Holy Maiden Chooses Her Husband
"Report, the credentials of the Three Kingdoms and a letter of greeting..."
Feng Mobai left, and the surprise banquet was supposed to be over. Outside the main hall, the eunuch's shrill voice suddenly sounded.
Hey, is this emperor so busy? He really has everything to do, why is he still busy with diplomacy at this time?
Ye Chenghuan rolled his eyes fiercely. It was already past Youshi. It had already been three full hours since entering the palace in Wushi. Even in modern time, it was already six hours. Chaoling Dengxing was nothing more than that.
She yawned impatiently at Feng Cangqiong. Since you have something to do, why don't you let us go free?
As if he knew what she was thinking, Feng Cangqiong gently stroked her head, gentle yet domineering, and said in a soothing, low and mellow voice, "We've waited until now, why don't we take a closer look?"
Well, what does this guy mean? Riding a donkey to read the songbook, the real boss finally comes on stage?
Ye Chenghuan was interested, and he was right. If the three countries sent their letters of credence and greetings at this time, they would definitely go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing.
Eunuch Fu has taken over the so-called certificate of credence from the eunuch. Emperor Fengtian's face is calm and majestic, but he can't argue, "Fu Xi, Nian"
"Your Excellency, the Lord of the Phoenix Kingdom, my Xifeng Dynasty has specially sent the crown prince and princess to attend the Daughter's Day banquet of your dynasty. I would like to pay my respects!"
"Your Excellency, the Lord of the Phoenix Kingdom, our Southern Phoenix Dynasty..."
"Your Excellency, the Lord of the Phoenix Kingdom, our Northern Phoenix Dynasty..."
A high-pitched voice was raised in the hall, but most of it had the same content. Ye Chenghuan's head was filled with black threads when he heard it.
I bet you, this is the important thing?
Daughter's Day, what the hell is this?
Ye Chenghuan searched in his mind and realized that the Daughter's Day in this era was the modern Mid-Autumn Festival. In the Phoenix Dynasty, it was a performance show for unmarried women. On that day, there would be a competition of talent and appearance, and there would be selections.
Titles such as the most beautiful woman or the most talented woman
Of course, if a man and woman like each other, they can ask the emperor to marry them on the spot. To a certain extent, it has become a concubine selection day for princes and princes.
But, what does this have to do with "married women" like them? It even attracted the princes and princesses of the Three Kingdoms
"Why did these Three Kingdoms suddenly come?"
"Is something going to happen?"
The officials were also whispering to each other, and the hall was in a state of excitement. It was obvious that this grand occasion was very impressive.
"Your Majesty, the princes and princesses of the three countries have already moved into the other courtyard. They were sent here by messengers." Eunuch Fu quickly found out the situation and reported to Emperor Fengtian.
"What?"
"Come so quickly?"
There was unconcealable surprise on the faces of the ministers. People from the Three Kingdoms quietly entered the Phoenix Dynasty without knowing it. Isn't this a sign of bad intentions?
The atmosphere became a little solemn, and Emperor Fengtian was even more condensed. Only the dignified queen smiled calmly, and there was a strange light in her eyes that no one could understand.
"Report, urgent one from eight hundred miles away..."
Outside the door, another eunuch's voice sounded. Ye Chenghuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, with a smile hidden in his autumn eyes.
What is this called?
A sudden surprise, a thunderbolt?
Even the 800-mile express has come, and it seems that something really interesting is happening!
"Hurry!" Emperor Fengtian's face showed a bit of eagerness. Eunuch Fu quickly took it and raised his voice without waiting for instructions.
"Your Excellency, the Lord of the Phoenix Kingdom, I, the Young Lord and the Saint of the Phoenix Clan have come to attend the Daughter's Day feast of your dynasty. We will use your dynasty's place to hold concubine and husband selection ceremonies for the Young Lord and the Saint. We have compiled a book to inform the other three countries.
, the young master and the saint will arrive at your dynasty together in ten days, the leader of the Feng clan submits."
Suddenly, the entire hall was silent. Ye Chenghuan clearly felt the strange atmosphere. There was a faint sound of teacups being touched. Even Feng Cangqiong beside him froze slightly and returned to normal in an instant.
The young master chooses a concubine? The saint chooses a husband? What’s the mystery?
"Father, won't the saintly daughter be pregnant only next year? Why is the husband selection ceremony held this year?" As soon as Eunuch Fu's voice fell, the ninth prince Feng Yeyu spoke first, with a hint of surprise in his tone.
"yes……"
"It turns out that the young master has gone back to pick up the saint..."
All the officials agreed one after another, Ye Chenghuan's eyes were filled with light, and there was a hint of a narrow-minded smile. Dare, the ones they value are all saints!
Could it be that that "stuck guy" actually became the foil of the saint?
Ye Chenghuan chuckled endlessly. This is the only thing worth celebrating.
Emperor Fengtian had already frowned, his eyes full of deep thought, as if he was slightly worried, "My dear friends, how should we deal with this matter?"
"Father, you must not miss this opportunity. Who knows, with the blessing of the saint, you can occupy the east. Our dynasty has been occupying the east for thousands of years. We must not let other countries take away our dynasty's territory and displace the people.
, go through the pain of war again”
When Feng Yeyu heard this, he immediately straightened his face and spoke first. There was no great joy in his expression, and he looked worried about the country and the people.
"Yes, these three countries just want to rob the saint, and our country has to guard against it..."
"Your Majesty, this matter is extremely urgent. We should come up with a comprehensive plan as soon as possible..."
All the officials followed closely behind, showing their loyalty as if from heaven and earth. Ye Chenghuan frowned when he heard this.
These idiotic ministers will not ask them to sit here with a bunch of princesses and ladies to discuss state affairs with you?
If you have a saint, can you occupy the east?
Who came up with these flattering words to confuse the world?
Ye Chenghuan was feeling weird, but an idea suddenly came to his mind. Is this such a coincidence?
Just after that guy left, such a "big thing" happened. He didn't say anything for a moment. Was he really ignorant and was rushed back to the clan?
Also, the Queen, as a member of the Feng Clan, must know something about the Feng Clan’s activities, so this drama...
It turns out that those who have been trying to hide the truth are the Queen's side!
