Today, the Moon Palace has changed into a pure and elegant one, with red makeup everywhere.
Jiang Qingyu was sitting in front of the dressing table, and Yue Mei was painting her eyebrows.
At the same time, today is Jiang Qingyu's eighteenth birthday, and it is also the day when the Moon Palace is unveiled. As the palace owner, she needs to dress up to attend.
A change from her usual attire, she wears a long red floor-length skirt that highlights her exquisite figure. The pattern of a flying phoenix is outlined with gold thread on the skirt, which is unattainable. She wears a phoenix crown and gold hairpin, and her black hair hangs down around her neck. It just covers half of the collarbone, making the skin appear fairer and more delicate. A pair of gold bracelets jingle on the wrist, making it playful yet luxurious.
Yue Mei satisfactorily presented the status jade pendant placed in the red tray to Jiang Qingyu, and said in a rather exaggerated tone: "Palace Master is indeed very suitable for this outfit. It is bright and attractive, and she is already showing her splendor at the age of eighteen!"
Jiang Qingyu raised her hand to support the heavy phoenix crown, took the jade pendant and tied it around her waist. After hearing Yue Mei's words, she was naturally happy. She pursed her lips and smiled and said, "Thank you very much."
During the conversation in the forbidden area the day before, Yue Li decided on the date when the Moon Palace would be unveiled, and also let her, the palace owner, show up again. When he learned that Jiang Qingyu's birthday was today, he simply ordered to let Yue Mo and Yue Bai Manage this event well.
Although the Moon Palace does not invite outsiders and is regarded as a family banquet, there must still be rituals. Without rules, there will be nothing.
Jiang Qingyu got up early in the morning to dress up.
Yue Mei was worthy of having stayed in a brothel before. Her makeup skills were excellent. Even her eyes were painted a lot larger. Her eyes were cut with autumn water and shimmering, and her red lips made her look more mature.
Yue Mei sighed with emotion: "I was only your age when the palace master brought me back to the palace. At that time, you never put on makeup and wore no makeup. I thought it would be great if I could dress up for you one day. Unexpectedly, I actually waited for the day when I would dress up the palace master."
There were two knocks on the door, and Yue Bai's voice came in: "Palace Master, are you ready?"
Yue Mei replied instead: "——Just come!"
Then he respectfully said to Jiang Qingyu: "Yuebai came to urge me. The ceremony must be ready."
Jiang Qingyu nodded and said hello, letting Yue Mei hold her right hand. The skirt that dragged the floor was really difficult to walk on, and these headdresses were shaky and heavy. If you want to maintain your posture, you must have someone to support you. .
It only took a few steps from the back hall to the front hall, but Jiang Qingyu's walk was particularly difficult. It was the first time for her to wear something like this, so it was inevitable that she was not used to it.
Arriving at the front hall, the hall that was empty the day before was now filled with people. They bent their waists and lowered their heads, all respectful. Master Wu Lingjun and his brothers and sisters were all sitting on their seats and watching with interest.
Yue Mei helped her to stand beside Yue Li, and immediately stepped down to stand with Yue Bai and Yue Mo.
The entire Moon Palace gathered in the hall, only a hundred people, but they were all extremely loyal!
"Greetings to the palace lord! Greetings to the high priest! The palace lord will last for generations, and the high priest will last for generations!"
The loud voice shook the entire palace, but Jiang Qingyu shuddered.
Why does this slogan sound like a villain and a local emperor at the same time? ?
Although she was thinking this in her heart, she didn't show it on her face. She waved her hand solemnly and said to everyone, "Pingshen."
I heard a faint chuckle, it was Master.
Jiang Qingyu had an awkward but polite smile on his face. Very good. With this "flat body", he looked more like a native emperor in the ravines.
She was slightly crazy, but fortunately Yue Li was still by her side. She looked at Wu Lingjun with disapproval and said in a calm and powerful voice: "The Palace Master has returned to the palace. The Moon Palace has been unveiled. The whole palace is happy today. Please take your seats." .”
"Yes! Palace Master, High Priest!" they all said in unison, and then they all took their seats, and soon they were full.
Jiang Qingyu was sitting on pins and needles while drinking tea. Some people lined up to offer toasts, but she couldn't refuse them. One or two of them were brought back to the palace in her previous life. Although they were older than her, they were extremely sincere and could not be refused.
One cup after another, in the end I could only replace wine with tea.
Fortunately, she had a good drinking capacity and was not completely drunk. Before she knew it, the ceremony of her appearance was over.
Jiang Qingyu was helped back by Yue Mei and Song Wu. When she felt sleepy, she said: "This wine has really strong stamina..."
…
…
At noon, there was a lot of discussion in a teahouse in Yunzhong.
A person stood on the seat, holding chopsticks in his left hand with a peanut on the chopsticks, and a cup of coarse tea in his right hand. He spitted and said in an exaggerated tone: "Have you heard? The disappeared Moon Palace has been born again! It's in Beizhou. Ecstasy!"
The people at the same table immediately echoed: "No wonder the world can't find it. They thought the palace was destroyed. Unexpectedly, it was actually hidden in Mihuntang as rumored!"
They spoke loudly, and the person at the next table heard it and naturally interjected: "Isn't that true? Do you know that the Moon Palace has been away from the world for thousands of years, and I think there are some old monsters in it!"
The waiter who came over for tea heard the news of the Moon Palace all morning and knew more. He copied the exact words of some tea guests and said: "What about the old monster? According to the history books, the existence of the Moon Palace is to resist the demons! I want to come here This time it comes out because the demons are about to make a comeback!"
After hearing what the waiter said, a tea guest immediately sighed and said: "Well, according to what you said, the demon seal is really dead. Even the Moon Palace has not escaped from the world. This is preparing to fight..."
After that, he changed his voice and said firmly: "No! I have to hide. If there is a fight, we will definitely not be able to take care of us monks who are in the foundation building stage and Qi training stage!"
Another sneer said: "Hide? Where do you think you can hide? The demons are rampant. If we can't resist those people, we can't escape even if we survive the first day of the lunar month, but we can't escape the fifteenth day. According to me, we might as well surrender. never mind."
The other person spat on the ground and said, "Bah! You are a coward! You villain! The dignified human race wants to take refuge with the demon race! Believe it or not, I will entrust you to those noble and upright people to expose you now!"
The man who said he surrendered rolled his eyes and said in a contemptuous tone: "Expose? Haha, all the major sects are busy with people from Lan Sha Tang. I'm afraid they don't have time to take care of this mess. I think you should take care of it first." Take care of yourself!"
Hearing this man's arrogant tone, the tea patron next to him was about to go up and fight for justice, but was stopped and said: "Hey! You don't care what he does. If he wants to take refuge, just go and take refuge. Since ancient times, evil has never prevailed over good. In the end, he There is always a bitter pill to be eaten! Come, come, drink tea, drink tea!"
The waiter happened to be looking for tea on the table. After putting down the tea, he also said: "Yes, objectively, don't be angry. This person is most afraid of being a wallflower. He may be burned one day."
