Mo Xiangbin just finished speaking.
A rapid and sharp bird call suddenly sounded, and everyone watched as a dazzling colorful light suddenly burst out from the bird cage.
Draw a beautiful upward throw line on the stage, sweep across the entire stage, and then slowly fall back to the tall linden tree at the other end of the stage.
Then, disappear into nothing.
"It's Caifeng!"
Someone in the crowd shouted loudly, and everyone slowly reacted.
But his expression was still a little dull, and he hadn't completely jumped out from the spectacle just now, so he couldn't help but murmur in a low voice: "It's so magical!"
Even everyone in Mo Country who knew that Caifeng was dead couldn't help but rub their eyes when they saw this scene.
Can't believe Caifeng is still alive.
After a long time, Yelu Anchen regained his composure, and he still stretched his neck to poke into the cage, hoping to see the wonderful scene again.
However, when Qingxue removed the birdcage and the black cloth from the stage, the spectacle did not reappear.
The bird cage is empty, and the 'Colorful Phoenix' has disappeared.
Yelu Anchen immediately quit and asked, "Where did Caifeng go?"
"Of course he flew away, didn't you see it?" Shi Qingxue opened her mouth to answer.
"No! I just saw the colorful phoenix falling on the bodhi tree. You don't want to steal the colorful phoenix, right?" Yelu Anchen was aggressive and wanted Shi Qingxue to hand over the 'Colorful Phoenix'.
seeing is believing.
At this time, he no longer doubted the fact that Caifeng was still alive, and only thought about how to get Caifeng in order to live up to his brother's trust.
When Shi Qingxue heard this, he blinked in surprise and asked, "Didn't Prince Yelu say that you have read "Qinzhou Chronicles"? How could you not know about the Nirvana and Ascension of the 'Colorful Phoenix'?"
"What?" Of course Yelu Anchen had never read such a boring book - all his previous knowledge about Caifeng came from familiar legends and Master Ying's explanations.
As for nirvana or something, he has no idea at all!
Shi Qingxue then took out a copy of "Qinzhou Chronicles" and spread it in front of Yelu Anchen, and turned to "Colorful Phoenix: Nirvana and Rebirth".
Point to the words above and read them word by word: "The Holy Colorful Phoenix is rare to see in a thousand years. It has been in this world for more than ten years now. It has brought peace to the country and the people, and has made great achievements. At noon on the tenth day of the eighth month, Nirvana turned into a colorful streak. Light, return to heaven..."
After he finished reciting, he saw that the others still looked confused and explained: "Today is the tenth day of the eighth lunar month, which is the time when the colorful phoenix ascends to the sky from nirvana. Didn't you all just see that the colorful phoenix has turned into a colorful light and flew up to the sky?" Damn it?"
"But the book clearly states that a thousand years ago, the colorful phoenix ascended to heaven after more than ten years after its birth. However, it has only been three or two months since the colorful phoenix was discovered. How can it be so fast? You clearly want to monopolize it for one country. He wanted to hide Caifeng on purpose."
Yelu Anchen had no idea that there was such a record in "Qinzhou Chronicles" and instinctively felt that there was something fishy in it.
Shi Qingxue avoided the sharp point and said concisely: "We just discovered the colorful phoenix not long ago, but this doesn't mean that the colorful phoenix has just arrived on the Qinzhou continent, right? But just now you all saw the colorful phoenix turning into light and ascending to the sky. This can be done No falsehood allowed.
If the prince still doesn't believe it, you can go and look under the bodhi tree to see if the colorful phoenix is hidden in the tree by us? "
She spoke calmly, and even turned sideways so that the big bodhi tree opposite was completely exposed to Yelu Anchen's sight.
Seeing this, Yelu Anchen was a little hesitant and said, "Who knows if you secretly sent someone to hide in the tree and hid it again when the colorful phoenix stopped to rest on the bodhi tree?"
Shi Qingxue said that Yelu Anchen's conjecture was simply impossible.
Although the Bodhi tree is tall and blocks out the sky and the sun, its trunk is straight. If someone hides on it, it is impossible to sneak away under everyone's nose.
Yelu Anchen obviously knew this, and was speechless by Shi Qingxue.
But he is not willing to give in!
The idea of 'flying to the sky' is definitely a lie.
He turned to look at Wu Yalei, who took a step forward and said, "Since Miss Shiliu said that we can inspect the bodhi tree, then we should be respectful and obey her order!"
Shi Qingxue raised her eyebrows slightly. She didn't expect Wu Yalei to be so persistent, but she didn't refuse Wu Yalei's request. Instead, he took a step back, moved out of the way, and made a 'please' gesture.
"As you wish."
Wu Yalei was made less confident by Shi Qingxue's frank attitude.
On the one hand, I felt that Caifeng must still be hiding somewhere, but on the other hand, I felt that Shi Qingxue would definitely not let them get a handle on her being so frank...
Under this entanglement, Wu Yalei led the people to walk all the paths that the colorful phoenix flew over, and then made a large circle around the bodhi tree.
He also had people fly to the tree to check for a while.
Wu Yalei then walked back slowly and reported to Yelu Anchen with a grimace: "Prince Qi..."
"How's it going? Have you found Caifeng?" Yelu Anchen asked hurriedly without waiting for Wu Yalei to finish.
"Weichen has just checked the place where Caifeng might be hiding, inside and out, but..." Wu Yalei paused.
Reluctantly he concluded, "But nothing!"
"Impossible! Caifeng must be hiding somewhere!" Yelu Anchen had no evidence, but he insisted that people from Mo State had hidden Caifeng.
He also threatened to send more manpower to expand the scope of the search.
Now let alone the people of Mo State who thought Yelu Anchen was being unreasonable, even Zhao Haoran was impatient.
"The "Qinzhou Chronicle" has clearly stated the whole story, but Prince Yelu has repeatedly suspected that His Majesty Emperor Mo had hidden Caifeng, and there is no evidence at all. This may make people think that you, Prince, are also Don’t you have any other plans?”
Yelu Anchen jumped up as if someone had stepped on his tail, "I am just worried that someone wants to steal Caifeng for himself. What kind of plot could he have? Is it possible that the Third Prince Zhao is not worried about such a thing happening at all?" "
Zhao Haoran was silent for a moment, he was really not worried at all.
Especially when he has seen the wonderful sight of the 'Colorful Phoenix Nirvana and Ascension to Heaven', his only thought now is that his mission is completed.
"I only believe what I saw with my own eyes. Just now we all saw the colorful phoenix turning into a ray of light and flying into the sky. So what is there to worry about?"
Zhao Haoran's tone was cool and extremely perfunctory.
He was not willing to 'collude' with Yelu Anchen. No matter how powerful Yelu Anchen was, he could not be too presumptuous in front of everyone.
Yelu Anchen was so angry that he threw up his sleeves and left again.
Zhao Haoran also stood up, bowed to Mo Xiangbin, and said: "The emperor was ordered to come to your country this time, firstly to wish His Majesty a birthday, and secondly because he wanted to see the legendary sacred object 'Colorful Phoenix' with his own eyes , now that both wishes have been fulfilled, I hope your majesty will allow the young emperor to return to Zhao together with the Zhao envoys."
Mo Xiangbin wished that Zhao Haoran would leave quickly, so he immediately agreed and rewarded a lot of things to Zhao Haoran and Wei Shuye, who later also asked to return to China.
As soon as the outsiders left, Mo Xiangbin couldn't wait to recruit Shi Qingxue.
He asked anxiously: "Liu Niang, where is Caifeng? Where are you hiding?"
"Your Majesty, Caifeng's body is still lying in Prince Rui's Mansion and has not been brought here." Shi Qingxue answered truthfully.
Xin said: Bringing Caifeng's body carelessly at this time, doesn't it give Yelu Anchen an opportunity to attack
Mo Xiangbin didn't believe it, and said: "There are no outsiders here, Liu Niang, please don't lie to me. You have obviously revived Caifeng, please release it quickly!"
"Qingxue didn't say anything. Caifeng was already dead. Your Majesty, you saw it with your own eyes. Why..." Shi Qingxue was even more confused than Mo Xiangbin.
At that time, Mo Xiangbin personally sent someone to examine Caifeng's body. Why did he still think Caifeng was still alive, like Yelu Anchen did
"But you just clearly..." Mo Xiangbin said halfway, his expression became a little subtle.
Just now, everyone watched the colorful phoenix fly out of the birdcage and fly to the Bodhi tree!
Shi Qingxue couldn't help laughing and explained helplessly: "Your Majesty misunderstood, it was just a small trap! Qingxue just read the story of the colorful phoenix's nirvana thousands of years ago from "Qinzhou Chronicles: Colorful Phoenix Chapter", and suddenly got inspiration and thought of it. This is a way to make everyone think that Caifeng has passed into nirvana and ascended to heaven on the tenth day of the eighth lunar month."
"Then what did we just see?" Even though Shi Qingxue explained it so clearly, Mo Xiangbin still had extravagant hopes.
Maybe Caifeng is still alive
"There was no colorful phoenix at all just now. All you saw was a colorful light."
Ling Ruiyin thought about it and nodded, "It is indeed a colorful light, but isn't that the colorful light that the colorful phoenix turns into when it reaches nirvana?"
"Of course not, it's just the watery light created by Qingxue asking Wei Wei to use some tricks."
Shi Qingxue revealed the truth, but everyone else present - except Mo Junyang - was still confused.
She couldn't explain it clearly, so she had to ask Wei Zichao to rearrange the stage.
The music played again, just like before.
Then a bird song rose to the sky, and everyone's eyes once again focused on the birdcage, which was covered by heavy black cloth.
The next second, another colorful light shot straight into the sky from the bird cage.
An even more magical thing happened. This time the colorful light did not disappear. It stayed high in the sky and drew a beautiful colorful arc.
"Wow!"
Everyone exclaimed again, staring at the colorful light.
Shi Qingxue asked the servants to stop the music at this time.
Everyone still stared at the colorful light for a while, and suddenly someone noticed something was wrong.
Ling Ruiyin turned around and looked around, listened again, and asked doubtfully: "Why does there seem to be a sound of water? Did you hear it?"
Others nodded, indicating that they also heard strange sounds.
Shi Qingxue ordered people to remove the thick black cloth again.
The situation on the stage can be seen at a glance.
Wei Zichaozheng was standing next to the birdcage, holding a long water pipe in his hand.
Water sprayed out from the water pipe, and the so-called colorful light was superimposed on the traces of the water spray.
"How could this happen?" Ling Ruiyin exclaimed.
Although everyone has understood at this time that after the so-called 'Caifeng Huaguang' unveiled its mysterious veil, it was just an inconspicuous water light - if Shi Qingxue hadn't deliberately played exciting music and the sound of water falling to the ground, I'm afraid it would have That’s cool—but why is this water light actually colorful
Shi Qingxue smiled slyly and pointed at the sun at noon, "Because of the sun! After the rain, the sun is scorching, and you can occasionally see colorful lights in the sky. It is mysterious and confusing, and is regarded as a sign of auspiciousness.
But when my grandfather took me into the mountains for exercise when I was young, I once saw a long-lasting colorful light under a waterfall. It was precisely because the waterfall fell with its back to the strong fire, and the reflected sunlight formed a beautiful colorful beam.
So I asked Wei Wei to use his internal strength to shoot the water column with his back to the sun. In the scorching sun, the scene that everyone saw was formed. "
Everyone then showed a look of sudden realization and clapped their hands and praised him. They boasted that Qingxue had learned so much that he could think of such a wonderful way to create the illusion of 'the colorful phoenix's nirvana and ascension'.
"She is worthy of being the most beloved granddaughter of old Duke Shi! With her courage, wisdom and intelligence, she is the true legacy of old Duke!" Mo Xiangbin just got Shi Qingxue to rescue him, and he gave the highest price without hesitation. He praised her and rewarded her with a lot of things for her daughter's household.
He praised me profusely again.
Shi Qing was modest and refused, saying that these were all methods thought up by predecessors and she was just borrowing them.
Ling Ruiyin took Qingxue's little hand with satisfaction and praised: "Don't be so modest! Even if these things happened in advance, why don't others think of such a way? You girl, you have finally lived up to the Ai family's treatment of you. Such expectations!”
"Your Majesty, thank you!" Shi Qingxue scratched her hair in embarrassment.
Shi Qingxue's "Cai Feng Nirvana Ascension to Heaven" cover up the fact that Cai Feng was poisoned. Yelu Anchen had nowhere to vent his planned attack, so he had to hold it in.
Even after Zhao and Wei returned home one after another, he had to bring his own envoys and return home in anger.
Before leaving, he made a special trip to Prince Rui's Mansion and said harsh words to Mo Junyang: "Mo Junyang, just wait for me. Sooner or later, I will make your life worse than death."
Mo Junyang ignored him and turned back to his room.
It was when Qu Yuebai saw that Prince Yelu was so angry that one Buddha ascended to heaven and two Buddhas left his body, he was afraid that he would be really angry, so he laughed and said a few soft words and sent him out of the palace.
Yelu Anchen returned without success again, and he hated Mo Junyang and the entire Mo country, and vowed to destroy the entire Mo country one day.
Who knows how many troubles it will cause after this
