I have a room in Huangquan

Page 496

But soon, he was disappointed.

The maids placed a screen between the crowd, and under the dim light of the main hall, not to mention the real face, even the shadow could not be seen clearly.

Only a vague outline can be seen vaguely.

Chapter 486: I don't know the taste of salt, but the fruit smells like breastfeeding

Seemingly seeing what Ding Xiaoyi was thinking, Tutu warned in a low voice, "Low your head, facing Shengjia is a two-day trip to eye-gouging hell!"

Hearing Tutu's words, Ding Xiaoyi immediately lowered his head again.

Before everyone got up, the side door on the other side opened, and guards in armor marched into the hall with neat steps.

The guards headed by him hold two red wooden plaques, one of which is written with divine power and the other with grace.

It is different from the guard of honor of the maid of honor.

Most of the maids of the empress held lanterns, spiritual sails, feather fans, and incense burners.

But what these guards were holding were pumpkins, copper tripods, and axes.

I saw the Great Emperor walking slowly from behind, different from what I had seen before, the Great Emperor had already changed into another attire.

She wore a beaded jade crown on her head, and a pair of pupils as black as black jade shone with a warm brilliance.

Nine sea golden dragons were embroidered on the night-black robe. As he strode forward, the golden dragons on the corners of the robe twisted and shone with scales, as if they were about to jump down from above at any moment.

The emperor didn't need a screen, he was sitting on the dragon chair grandly, with his eyes looking down at the crowd, looking down on the world from above.

Even if it's just a gesture of raising the palm casually, it seems to have the power to suppress the universe.

"See Emperor Tianqi Rensheng."

Not only the ceremonial guards are different, but also the names are different.

The empress greets you, but she doesn't call out her full name.

The Great Emperor not only had to address the Great Emperor by his full name, but even the bad old man and the others had to kneel down and bow down this time.

This time even Tutu stood up and knelt down to worship.

"Didn't you say that the empress is bigger than the emperor? But looking at the posture, it seems that the emperor is more majestic?"

Tutu didn't speak, but Liao Qiu knew about it very well, but he knew that Ding Xiaoyi didn't understand these rules of Youming, so he simply translated them into vernacular and made a simple analogy.

"It's not the same. The empress is the chairman, but she belongs to the hands-off shopkeeper. The emperor is the highest executive officer, and the entire Nether official position is appointed by him. He is our direct person in charge. Life and death are all in the hands of the emperor.

Furthermore, today the empress is a guest, so the guest can do as she pleases, it is too formal, and it is easy to overwhelm the host, if it is the reincarnation palace of the empress, the same is true for the emperor, who is not called by his full name. "

"oh oh!"

He nodded, and from the corner of his eye, he glanced at the aloof emperor again.

I think it was better when I saw the Great Emperor for the first time, but the current Great Emperor, although majestic and majestic, is inhumanly indifferent and unattainable inside and out.

"Get up! Today's Qingming Festival is also a grand ceremony, but..."

The emperor paused for a moment, and turned his eyes to Bai Pangpang, causing cold sweat to break out on Bai Pangpang's forehead.

I thought that the emperor would not expose himself at this time.

Fortunately, the Emperor's voice changed, "It's just that there is something wrong with the Bliss Tree recently, and it may not bear fruit for a long time in the future.

"There is a problem with the tree of bliss!"

Everyone was shocked, the tree of bliss is the sacred tree of Youshan, but it is said that the root runs through Youshan, and it is the vein of Youshan's ten thousand forests.

The vegetation on Youshan is thriving precisely because of the Bliss Tree, which is the vegetation in Youshan, which is full of vitality.

If there is a problem with the Bliss Tree, there may be problems with Youshan in the future.

At a time when everyone was worried about the future of Youshan.

The emperor smiled knowingly, didn't say any more, and waved his hand to signal the start of the fruit banquet.

The attendants who had been prepared a long time ago walked in from outside the hall and delivered all kinds of rare and rare fruits to everyone's tables.

In fact, this is not the first time for everyone to participate in the fruit banquet.

However, the specifications of this year's fruit feast are a bit... shabby.

The bad old man pinched a fruit with his fingers. This is the unique spirit lamp fruit of Youming. The inner core is shining with fluorescence, like a lantern at night.

In previous years, the spirit lamp fruit had to be at least as big as a human head.

Put it on the table, just like four bright lights.

Regardless of this, the other fruits are even more crooked, and the specifications and grades of the fruit clubs in previous years are more than a head behind.

Bai Pangpang picked up a fruit and chewed it slowly, as if the fruit in his hand was ginseng fruit.

Seeing this, the ghost king also picked up a fruit and put it in his mouth.

As a result, after taking a bite, the ghost king's face froze immediately, and when he looked at it, he saw that Bai Pangpang had already eaten the fruit in his hand.

Rubbing his hands together, he took the hairy fruit in his hand.

"Hey, what do you watch me do, eat."

The ghost king's eyes froze, and he stuffed the fruit into his mouth coldly, but every time he took a bite, his hand under the table squeezed tightly on his thigh.

Looking at Bai Pangpang, his expression became colder and colder.

"Don't look at me so murderously, I don't owe you money."

Bai Pangpang looked puzzled, and suddenly understood something, "Oh, so you want to eat the fruit in my hand, here it is!"

As he spoke, he put the hairy fruit in his hand in his angry eyes, and put it on his plate.

"Come on, please please..."

The bad old man on the other side picked up his wine glass and toasted his friend Xuehe beside him.

Then he said with a distressed face, "Brother Xuehe, you are so old, your teeth must not be good, come here, you can eat more of this golden soft incense!"

As he said that, he saw the bad old man put the blackened and softened fruit on the plate in Xuehe's plate.

Xue He stared, looked at the bad old man, and drew his knife to chop him up.

He snorted coldly, "My brother, you are being polite, but by looking at your face, you can tell that you are also working day and night, and you have accumulated sickness. Take this bunch of grapes, don't be polite!"

The so-called tree grapes are as big as a baby's fist, delicious and sweet. After eating, they can regulate the five qi and bring good luck to people.

Of course, the effect is by no means as miraculous as Wufuzhu.

It's just that the bunch of grapes in Blood River were obviously picked too early.

Each one was no more than the size of a fingernail, just like an unripe apple. The old man took a bite, it was sour and astringent, and swallowing it in his throat was like swallowing a knife.

It's so unpalatable that it makes people cry.

"Fengdu, why are you crying?"

Sitting on the dragon chair, the emperor squinted at the old man, his face suddenly darkened, "Why, do you think my fruit is not tasty?"

The bad old man ate three mouthfuls in a row, eating up all the fruit on his hand before he opened his mouth to explain.

"The old minister was just touched. I don't know when, the sense of taste is getting worse and worse as I get older, and I don't know the taste of salt.

It wasn't until I ate the fairy fruit bestowed by the emperor that I realized what is sweet, what is sour, and what is spring under the tongue.

As if returning to the time when Meng Tong tasted the feeling of the first bite, I am so grateful at this moment, thank the Great Emperor for the grace of rebuilding..."

A crowd of people in the distance listened to the old man's flattery, and felt that this old thief had something in their hearts.

"Smooter!"

"shameless!"

"Hehe, what a shameless ghost!"

All kinds of cursing voices echoed in everyone's heart. They only hated the old man who was a flatterer. It's fine to flatter. When he said that, who would dare to say that the fruit is not delicious.

Immediately, the tables were next to each other, caring and greeting each other, being humble and polite, and the atmosphere of the meeting was suddenly very harmonious.

"Don't stand still, both of you, eat!"

Tutu grabbed Ding Xiaoyi and Liao Qiu and pushed them to the table.

Looking at the table full of fruits, Ding Xiaoyi looked around and found that the scene was so harmonious and respectable, but under the respectability, it was full of murderous intentions.

It seems that what you handed over is not fruit, but revenge for killing relatives.

The funniest thing was that he saw Po Meng sitting with a man.

The man has a good appearance, but his demeanor only makes him look like a mother, with finger fingers in his hand, and even his voice sounds like a mother.

He didn't eat the fruit, but kept selling his cosmetics by Po Meng's side.

What kind of eye cream, miraculous skin care products, those who don't know, think that the person sitting next to him is a certain wechat business agent.

Granny Meng's head grew dizzy from his nagging, so she casually picked up the fruit and put it in her mouth, but she swallowed it, her face was blank at first, and then all the muscles on her face were drawn down, and her eyes just rolled her eyes.

Seeing this scene, Ding Xiaoyi hid behind and almost laughed.

People who can sit in the hall are of course not stupid. At this moment, they suddenly understood why the emperor had to talk about the problem with the Bliss Fruit Tree when he opened his mouth.

Feelings push responsibility in advance.

Ding Xiaoyi's face turned black when he saw that someone's face turned dark green after eating two fruits.

Who dares to eat this, these big men like them will look like this after eating it, and if they eat it by themselves, they won't eat themselves to death.

With a bitter face, Liao Qiu picked up a fruit the size of a grape, and carefully put it in his mouth. As a result, the muscles on his face almost twisted, and he swallowed three sips of water before he could eat the fruit.

"Xiaoyi, I'll give you one billion yuan, you can buy this table of fruit!"

After eating only one, Liao Qiu shouted that he couldn't take it anymore, and looked at Ding Xiaoyi with hopeful eyes.

"Come on, I won't pretend, I'm showing my cards, I'm a rich second generation, my grandfather is in the Tiandi Bank, and he still has dozens of large boxes of ghost notes for me."

He sternly refused, "Don't let me take the blame, you eat like this, I might really die if I eat it."

Fortunately, I didn't come alone.

Don't forget, there are also meatballs.

Wake up Meatball softly, and stuff a fruit into Meatball's mouth.

For a guy like the iron mayfly, who can eat and store, these fruits fall in its mouth, who knows whether it is eaten or hidden in its stomach.

After seeing his effort in twos and threes, he quietly wiped out a few fruits.

The expression on Tutu's face suddenly became relaxed.

Taking a look, I saw these enemies on the table, gnashing their teeth one by one, but still pretending to be meek and happy, their expressions were even more ferocious than those little ghosts in the Hall of Yama.

There was a cold war in my heart.

I don't know if the emperor did this on purpose to punish them.

"Cough cough!"

At this moment, it seemed that the atmosphere below was too harmonious, the emperor coughed twice, "Since you like to eat so much, everyone should bring ten catties back later."

Everyone almost trembled when they heard it, ten catties, is this going back to be used as arsenic?

But even though their stomachs were churning up and down, everyone could only show flattered looks on their faces, and stood up one after another, thanking the emperor.

"It's almost enough, it's time for the Paradise Fruit!"

At this time, the empress's impatient voice came from behind the screen, which moved everyone greatly, thinking that the empress still understood them.

Being urged by the empress, the emperor's face was a little ugly.

But it looked like he was suppressing a bad attack.

Seeing this, the people below couldn't help but secretly said in their hearts, "Sure enough, the rumors are true. It seems that the empress and the emperor really quarreled."

For a while, the hall gradually became quiet, and even the old man, who was known as the sycophant by the emperor's side, lowered his head at this moment, gnawing on the fruit in small mouthfuls.

At this moment, just listening to the outside of the door, a group of people walked in.

It turns out that this time, apart from all the bigwigs who came to participate in the fruit meeting, the descendants they brought will also come to follow the opportunity to pay homage to the emperor and ask for auspiciousness.

Originally, this was a small gap that would be arranged until the fruit meeting was over to boost the atmosphere.
