More than a dozen young men and women rushed to the bamboo house one after another. Suddenly the bell rang "dang dang dang". Everyone immediately listened in silence. More than 20 young men and women turned around and ran towards the bamboo house. They saw people walking towards the bamboo house from all directions. Deng Bingchun said: "The leader has gathered everyone to give a lecture, let's go in!" He walked into the house with Xiang Yan. After passing a corridor, a hall suddenly appeared in front of us. This hall is huge and can accommodate thousands of people. Xiang Yan has lived in the palace for a long time and has seen a lot of various halls, but such a huge hall is rare.
But I saw groups of young men and women, dressed in five colors, standing in five directions. The ones in green, white, black and yellow are all teenagers, and the ones in red are girls. Each has a long sword on its back. There are about a hundred people in each team. At the other end of the hall, there are two bamboo chairs placed side by side in the middle, covered with brocade cushions. There were dozens of people standing on both sides, including men and women. The young ones were in their thirties and the old ones were in their sixties or seventies. None of them had weapons on them. There were five to six hundred people gathered in the hall, but there was no sound, not even a cough.
After a while, the bell rang nine times in a row, footsteps sounded in the inner hall, and ten men came out. They are all about thirty years old, dressed in five colors, and stand next to chairs on both sides, five people on each side. After a while, the bell rang loudly, followed by hundreds of silver bells. Everyone in the hall knelt down and said in unison: "The leader will enjoy eternal blessings and live as long as heaven."
Deng Bingchun pulled Xiang Yan and made him kneel down, but Xiang Yan had no choice but to kneel down. Looking secretly, I saw a man and a woman coming out of the inner hall and sitting on the chairs. The bell rang again and everyone slowly stood up. The man was very old, with white temples hanging down his chest, scars and wrinkles all over his face, and extremely ugly. The woman was a beautiful young woman, in her early twenties, with a slight smile, charming and extremely gorgeous. Xiang Yan sighed secretly: "It's really like a flower stuck in cow dung."
On the left, a man in green clothes took two steps forward, holding green paper in his hand, and chanted loudly: "Respectfully read the teachings of the Hong Cult Master who is kind and graceful and brings great power to all directions: 'With one heart and one mind, we can build a city, and it will be unparalleled in the world'!" In the hall! Everyone in the court also recited in unison: "If we work together, we can build a city, and it will be unparalleled in the world!" Xiang Yan was peeking at the beauty, and everyone recited this in unison, which shocked him.
The man in green continued to read: "The leader's immortal blessings are as high as the sky, and the loyalty of the disciples shines on their heads; the leader sails the thousand-year ship, rides the wind and waves to show off his heroism; the divine dragon flies in the sky and looks up, the leader's reputation reaches all directions; everyone is born to be the leader, Everyone dies for the leader; all the orders of the leader are obeyed, and the leader is like the sun and moonlight!" The man read one sentence, and everyone followed him. After everyone finished reciting, they shouted in unison: "Keep the teachings of the leader in mind at all times, make achievements and defeat the enemy, and everything will be accomplished." The young men and women shouted especially enthusiastically. Master Hong had an ugly face with an expression of indifference, but the beauty beside him smiled and recited along. After everyone finished reading, there was no sound in the hall.
Leader Hong glanced at Xiang Yan, with an angry look on his face. He snorted and said coldly: "Are you Xiang Yan? Are you trying to set up Ah Quan? How brave you are." Xiang Yan was frightened. Terrified, speechless.
The beauty next to her smiled and said, "Don't scare the child. The person who wants to arrest me is the emperor, not him. Why are you angry at him?" The beauty's voice was crisp, charming, and extremely beautiful. He raised his left hand again, waved towards Yan, and said with a smile: "Little brother, come here." Xiang Yan was startled and whispered: "Me?" The beauty smiled and said: "Yes, I am calling you. Xiang Yanzhan stepped forward tremblingly, bowed respectfully, and said, "The leader and his wife will enjoy eternal blessings and live as long as heaven."
Mrs. Hong smiled and said: "This child is very well-behaved. Who taught you to add the words 'and Mrs.' under the leader?" Xiang Yan was stunned and did not answer. Mrs. Hong put away her smile and asked again: "Who taught you that?" Xiang Yan replied: "What's there to teach you? Since the leader 'enjoy immortal blessings forever and live as long as heaven', then Mrs. Should it also be said that 'immortals will enjoy eternal blessings and live as long as the heavens'?" When Madam Hong heard this, she laughed like a trembling flower. Leader Hong couldn't help but smile, twirling his long beard with his hands, nodding and smiling. Mrs. Hong smiled and said, "Did you think of those three words and add them yourself?" Xiang Yan said, "Yes."
Mrs. Hong said again: "You said that the emperor planned to snatch me and Chen Yuanyuan into the palace. What did the emperor tell you?" Palace. It’s just that Chen Yuanyuan is the Princess of Pingxi, and the emperor’s sought-after wife has a bad reputation, so Xiaobao and I were sent to find Prince Mu’s Mansion and people from Mongolia and Tibet to ask them to send his wife and Chen Yuanyuan to the palace.” After hearing this. , Master Hong’s face darkened again. Mrs. Hong said: "I have no reputation in the world. How did the Emperor know that I exist?"
Wei Xiaobao had already given the answer to this question, and said to Yan Yi calmly: "I don't know, the emperor should have his own source of information!" Mrs. Hong added: "Chen Yuanyuan may have been unparalleled in beauty before, but she is this year She must be at least forty, right? Can she still make the emperor worried?" Xiang Yan said: "I don't know, I have never seen Chen Yuanyuan, so I don't know what she looks like. But the emperor said that among the beauties in the world, the wife is the first. Chen Yuanyuan Second." Mrs. Hong suddenly smiled at Master Hong and said, "Master, let's go and catch Chen Yuanyuan, okay?"
