Chapter 664 The Descending of the Virgin

  The people of Shendu found that the winter of this year seemed to be colder than ever before.

  The heavy snow lasted from November to the end of January. Guyun City was covered by a sheet of snow, and the gloomy sky never saw a ray of sunshine.

  Although this winter is tough, it is still very comforting to the people of God.

  The country not only provides subsidies for each household, but also provides winter benefits. There is no need to worry about being unable to work and survive due to heavy snow. The bored people even held ice and snow competitions.

  For example, in sled and ski competitions, the public is enthusiastic about participating, and the cold wind can't resist everyone's enthusiasm from the bottom of their hearts.

   This cold winter has passed in such a lively manner.

  In early February, the people of Shendu Kingdom received good news.

  On February 4th, which is the vernal equinox day of the twenty-four solar terms in Huaguo, Prince Sang Luo's crown prince canonization ceremony will be held.

   This is undoubtedly good news for the people of Shendu.

  The canonization ceremony will be just three days later. In the past crown prince canonization ceremony, the lord will personally hand over the sub-scepter representing the crown prince to the crown prince. However, because the lord is seriously ill, he is unable to attend the scene in person, so the lord will do it for him.

   This is a process of smooth transition of royal power, which is very important to the incoming crown prince.

   All walks of life in Shendu are busy with the upcoming crown prince canonization ceremony, but in the palace, Landa is extremely anxious.

  After the canonization ceremony of Prince Sangluo, the wedding will be put on the agenda.

   Could it be that she really wants to marry Sang Luo?

  Landa will never forget the way Prince Sanluo looked at her when she was lying on the bed and couldn't move.

   She would go nuts if this man became her husband for years to come.

   If you don't go crazy, you will be played to death by him sooner or later.

  She wants to go far away with Gu Zhe, and don't want the honor of a princess, but Gu Zhe is more involuntary than her, so what should I do?

  Landasi thought about it: "Prince Sangluo doesn't need a foreign prince to consolidate his power, his wife..."

  Landa's eyes lit up, and she said to Ah Wu, "Does Prince Sang Luo have a beloved woman?"

  A Wu thought for a while and shook his head: "Prince Sangluo keeps himself clean, and has never been intimate with a woman."

   "That must be because he hides it deeply. I don't believe that at his young age, he doesn't have a good woman."

   "Your Highness, you really misunderstood Prince Sangluo. I went to his palace to inquire secretly. There is not even a maid in his palace."

  Landa couldn't believe it: "Is he gay?"

  A Wu's face turned blue, and he choked out a sentence for a while: "Your Highness, if you don't want to marry, just say so..."

  Landa rolled her eyes: "Who are you?"

  A Wu sighed: "Your Highness, I know what you're thinking, but you have to think about what the consequences will be if you do that, have you ever thought about it?"

Landa snorted coldly: "Brother only cares about the throne in his heart, and he never cared about my younger sister. Why would I sacrifice my life's happiness to maintain that poor family relationship? Besides, the Shendu Kingdom is in a corner, and it is absolutely impossible. Those who may take the initiative to provoke a war will at most cause my elder brother to bleed a lot."

  She made up her mind not to marry Prince Sangluo.

  Landa suddenly thought of something: "Not long ago, what happened to the saint who was talking about in Guyun City?"

Ah Wu became excited when he heard this, and started chattering mode: "It is rumored that a long time ago, on the land of Shendu Kingdom, there was an ancient country called Gujialan. There was a beautiful and intelligent princess in this ancient country. What is her name? I forgot that she is very kind and is a devout Buddhist. The Buddha was grateful for her kindness and specially enlightened her to be a universal holy Buddha. She just needs to go through eighty-eight thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight times in the world. The Holy Lord is also a devout Buddhist. He was enlightened by the Buddha in a dream, ascended as a Shura, founded the Saha religion to educate all living beings, and saved the gods and the people from the fire and water. Then the Holy Lord got the Buddha again in the dream not long ago. Attunement, the saint is about to complete her merits and come to the world, her existence will protect the people of the gods, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and the weather will be smooth."

  Awu said excitedly: "Recently, the streets and alleys of Guyun City are all talking about the coming of the saint."

   "Stupid people." Landa looked disdainfully.

   It's just a way for those in power to confuse people's hearts. Landa has already seen through it. It is absolutely impossible for the Holy Master to do this so simply.

  Randa carefully analyzed that the coming of the saint might take away the prestige of the Holy Lord among the people, but if he still wants to do so, it can only show that the coming of the saint will bring him greater benefits.

what is it then?

  Landa walked around the room, the choice of timing is very important.

  The crown prince is settled, and the saint is coming.

  Landa raised her head suddenly, her eyes revealed a light of insight.

   That's right, although Prince Sang Luo is in the same camp as the Holy Master, but people are separated from each other.

  The Holy Lord launched the Holy Maiden at this time, for the purpose of check and balance, and also for power.

  It took ten years to achieve the current prestige status, this Holy Master is really not to be underestimated.

   It is not that simple to check and balance the royal power, so the choice of this saint is very important, she must be the most trusted person of the Holy Lord.

   It is clear that the gender is a woman, so Landa might as well make a bold guess.

   The simplest and most straightforward way to deal with a man is to use beauty tricks.

   As the saying goes, a hero is sad when a beauty passes.

  Landa smiled: "Of course I can't waste the painstaking efforts of the Holy Master."

  Landa was also confirmed at this time, her death was acquiesced by the Holy Lord.

  After all, the existence of her, an eyesore foreign princess, is the biggest obstacle preventing the saint from going further.

  Landa walked to the table, picked up a pen and quickly wrote a greeting card, asking Ah Wu to send it to the holy temple in person.

  At night, Landa saw the Silver Armored Guards.

  The Lord finally agreed to meet her.

  When she stepped into the holy temple, Landa subconsciously became nervous because of the quietness that was different from the outside world.

   In fact, she was not sure in her heart, so she could only gamble.

  Thinking that Gu Zhe is here, she feels relaxed again.

   After walking a long way, Landa was finally led to a large hall. Landa had been to many famous churches and castles, but none of them were as shocking as the pictures she saw at this moment.

  She was not cautious, but admired the murals on the wall with an attitude of appreciation.

  There is not a silver armored guard in the main hall, and the quiet needles can be heard all around.

  Landa looked at the mural so dazed that she didn't notice the figure behind the bead curtain.

   "Does it look good?"

  An unusually gentle voice sounded.

  Landa was startled, and immediately knelt on the ground: "Landa has seen the Lord."

  After the panic, she was surprised that the tenderness contained in this voice flowed like water.

  The Lord is a woman.

   This further confirmed Landa's guess.

   "You are a princess of a country with a noble status, so you don't need to kneel to me."

  Landa stood up and looked up. A graceful figure loomed amidst the shaking of the bead curtain.

"The mural is a classic western mythology story. Demeter and Zeus' little daughter Pearl were captured by Pluto while they were playing in the garden. After learning about it, Demeter came down from the mountain of Olympus and frantically searched for it. Daughter, the pain of losing her daughter drove her into a rage, and drought and famine spread across the world."

Landa narrated slowly in a storytelling tone: "Zeus tried to persuade Pluto to release Pearl, and finally the gods reached an agreement, and Pearl spent two-thirds of his time with his mother, and the rest of the year. One-third of the time is spent with Pluto, which is also the ancient source of the division of seasons. When she leaves her mother to be with her husband, it is winter, but when spring comes, she can return to her mother."

Landa shook her head: "In this mural, I saw a mother's wholehearted love for her daughter. The rage of losing her daughter caused her an unstoppable disaster to the world. The anxiety of separation between mother and daughter has the potential to subvert the world. Power, but this kind of love is both honey and shackles. Although at the end of the story, the mother wins and she has her daughter again, but facing a mother with such a strong desire to control, for her daughter, is it different? What about a Pluto?"

   There was no sound in the hall for a long time.

  Landa said softly: "I think you must miss your daughter very much."

  The moment the voice fell to the ground, Landa felt that every hair on her body stood up, and a powerful pressure that made her scalp tingle came over her. Landa felt as if she was in a freezing **** for a moment.

   This moment is as long as ten thousand years.

  In the face of extremely powerful and intelligent superiors, honesty is the best life-saving talisman.

  When the coercion disappeared, Landa was deeply relieved.

   She bet right.

Landa knelt on the ground, showing a gesture of submission: "Holy Lord, Landa has no intention of prying into your privacy, and Landa also has a mother, and deeply understands your good intentions, and you must have no choice but to separate from your daughter. , presumably your daughter will also understand your painstaking efforts."

"Landa has no virtue or talent, and knows that she is not worthy of Prince Sangluo. Only a pure, beautiful and intelligent saint can match Prince Sangluo and be worthy of the honor of the queen of the future. Landa is willing to pave the way for the saint. It's just that Lanta has a small wish, and I hope the Lord will grant it."

   There was no sound, but Randa knew she was listening, and she had just spared her own life, which was enough proof.

Landa continued: "Landa just wants to be with the one I love, go to a place where no one knows us, and spend my whole life incognito. God wants the country to be peaceful and the people safe, and the weather will be smooth."

  Landa touched her forehead to the ground, making a pious vow.

  Knowing this secret, she may be silenced, but it is better than dying without knowing why. Landa would rather fight for happiness.

  After a long, long time, when Landa lost all feeling in her legs, the woman's gentle voice came from a distance, and in the empty hall, there was a long echo that lingered for a long time, just like Landa's restless heart at the moment.

   "He is really a loving and sexual child. If I don't allow it, I will break up a pair of lovers."

  Landa's face was overjoyed: "He is in the Silver Armor Guard, can the Holy Lord be merciful..."

"What's his name?"

   "Gu Zhe, I haven't seen him for a long time since I joined the Silver Armor Guard in October last year."

   There was no sound for a long time, and just when Landa was uneasy, the woman spoke.

   "Take her to see Gu Zhe, if Gu Zhe is willing, let them go."

  Landa left gratefully, and a cold-faced man appeared in front of her, without saying a word, and led her to a side hall.

   Not long after, Landa saw the figure of the boy, and she rushed over happily.

   "Gu Zhe, I have asked the Holy Lord, and she promised to let us leave together."

   Gu Zhe coughed lightly, avoiding her hand, and said calmly: "Your Highness, I will not leave."

   "Why?" Landa was very puzzled.

   "Don't you like me? As long as you leave with me, I will make you like me."

   "Is it because I delayed your future? I'm sorry Gu Zhe, I didn't tell you in advance, it doesn't matter, I can wait for you until you can marry me."

  Landa saw the boy in front of him sigh, with a deep helplessness suppressed in his brows and eyes.

   "Your Royal Highness, you deserve a better man, so don't waste it on me."

"I don't care. I only like you. I owe you three lives. If you really want to get rid of me, that's fine. When I return my three lives to you, I will run far away and let you find me again." Not to me."

  Landa put down these words, turned around and ran away.

  The boy stood quietly by himself, rubbing his forehead with a headache.

"Hey, Ruan, I didn't expect you to be so lucky. This princess has a special liking for you. Why don't you hurry up and agree to it. Where can you find such a good thing." Tian Wu didn't know where to come out from. , patted the boy on the shoulder.

  Qinglong stood at the door, staring coldly at the young man inside.

  Tian Wu saw Qinglong, and immediately saluted respectfully: "Qinglong leader."

   Qinglong stared at the young man with squinted eyes: "Since the establishment of the Silver Armor Guard, you are the first."

   Said it was a compliment, but more of a mockery.

   "Let's do it for ourselves." Qinglong turned and left.

  Ming Jing and Tian Wu returned to the Suzaku Department, most of the members were away, Tian Wu scratched his head: "Recently there are a lot of things, the boss called to go to a meeting."

  The crown prince canonization ceremony, as well as the public opinion monitoring of the saint, for the members of the Suzaku Department, every day is very busy.

  Ming Jing is very idle, and Suzaku treats her like a useless person, and she can't get in the most important meeting room.

  However, Ming Jing was assigned a task. The Silver Armored Guards were recruited from various ministries, and Ming Jing was one of them. Starting today, he will be stationed in the Prince's Palace to protect the Prince's safety until the canonization ceremony is over.

  Ming Jing left the holy temple with the team and went to the prince's palace.

   Enter the palace, first go to meet the prince.

  At that time, the prince was making tea in the garden, and the snow had not yet melted. Prince Sangluo in a white robe blended perfectly with the snow scene, and his gestures were so elegant.

  Seeing the four silver-armored guards kneeling in front of him, the prince smiled and said, "Please get up, I will be in trouble from now on."

   "Swear allegiance to the prince to the death."

  Prince Sang Luo nodded with a smile: "Ruan stay."

  Others dispersed, Prince Sangluo pointed to the opposite side: "Sit down."

   "The subordinates dare not."

  Prince Sangluo laughed and said: "You dare to force me with a knife, what else in this world you dare not do?"

  Ming Jing still stood still.

   "Actually, I admire your courage."

  Prince Sangluo raised his eyes, his eyes were black and deep, like thick ink, and there was no end to the abyss.

   "Would you like to stay by my side forever?"

  His voice is very gentle, but deep down, there is an undeniable overbearing.

  A wolf in sheep's clothing finally showed its sharp claws.

  Ming Jing looked back faintly, facing the oppressive feeling coming from the head, he did not flinch and feel timid.

   She seems to be so fearless forever, always calm and calm.

  Prince Sangluo's eyes were full of anticipation, he knew she would definitely refuse, and he had even guessed what she would say.

   "Your Highness, the Silver Armored Guards will guard your safety to the death."

  Sang Luo was happy for guessing her answer correctly, he was really happy, he thought, in this world, there was finally someone who let him know each other.

  You must not know, I know you better than yourself.

  Suddenly there was a secret joy in his heart, Sang Luo knew that he had fallen into the net carefully woven by that person, but it didn't matter, he was willing.

  How lonely this road to kingship is, he doesn't want to spend his whole life in love.

   The one who will spend the rest of his life with him will definitely be the most beautiful woman in the world.

  —

   It was night, and a black shadow jumped out of the prince's palace.

  The guard came to report, and Prince Sang Luo, who was reading the report in the mansion, said without raising his head: "Let her go."

  In the palace, Landa tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

  The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and she beat the pillow hard to vent.

   "Dead Gu Zhe, you are so mad at me."

   Then with a sad face: "Why don't you like me?"

   There was a light sound outside the window, followed by a black shadow leaping in.

  Randa vigilantly picked up the dagger hidden under the pillow, closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.

  As the familiar smell approached, Landa opened her eyes in surprise, threw away the dagger and rushed forward: "I knew you wouldn't abandon me."

  The man stood still, letting her throw his arms full.

  Landa grunted, touched the man's chest with both hands, and said suspiciously: "You have a good life in the Silver Armored Guards, your chest muscles are much more developed than before..."

   While speaking, Duangduang touched it twice.

  Randa felt something was wrong when she touched it. She raised her head and looked at the face that was close at hand, covered with a veil, only revealing a pair of dark eyes.

"sorry."

  Landa felt a bolt of lightning strike in her brain, and she fell down on the bed, completely stunned.

   "I didn't mean to deceive you, Your Royal Highness, I'm sorry, but you will meet a man who is more worthy of your entrustment for life. I bless you."

  Randa rushed over, took off her face scarf, and then took off her hat, her black hair hanging down.

  Tonight she obviously has no disguise, her features are fully exposed, and she has a beauty that Randa would be surprised to see.

  Landa was speechless for a while, staring straight at the stunning face in front of her.

   Obviously her age is more immature than she shows, but there are too many vicissitudes and stories hidden in those eyes.

  When facing her at this moment, there is only guilt.

  Landa hugged her suddenly, and said happily: "You are a woman, so you are a woman, now I don't have to worry about it."

  Ming Jing was stunned: "Your Highness Princess..."

  Randa's voice was filled with obvious joy, "I like you, it has nothing to do with gender or age."

Landa sniffed her body deeply, and said contentedly: "Do you know how much I hate those stinky men? They are self-righteous and think that all the women in the world will revolve around them. Even if I am a princess, I can't help I became a tool for them to play and show off. When I realized that I liked you, I was actually very scared. I was afraid that you were no different from those stinky men. In the end, love defeated my fear. I thought that if one day you betrayed Me, then I will kill you and then commit suicide."

   "But you are a woman, so all worries and worries are gone. I am amazed at your skin, but I love your soul even more deeply."

  Landa raised her head, and pressed a cautious kiss on Ming Jing's smooth forehead.

  Ming Jing was deeply shocked by her words, and remained silent for a while.

   "Sorry, Your Royal Highness, I..."

   "You don't need to answer me." Landa interrupted her and looked into her eyes.

"You are a person with a holy soul. I know that my love is a burden to you, and even more a kind of stain. It doesn't matter. Then let me love you from a distance. I won't Your life is causing trouble."

   "Your name is not Guzhe, can you tell me your real name?"

   "Mirror."

  Landa hugged her again, buried her head in her shoulder, and deeply sniffed the fragrance that only belonged to the girl.

  A drop of tear silently sank into the clothes and disappeared.

  The person who should say sorry is obviously me...

  —

  February 4th, Lichun.

  Spring is the beginning of the growth of all things, and the gloomy sky in Guyun City has finally ushered in a ray of light.

  Early in the morning, the people went out to the central square in the center of the city. Today, the canonization ceremony of Prince Sangluo will be held here.

   At the largest pier in Guyun City, a sailboat docked quietly on the shore.

   Countless merchant ships dock at the pier of Guyun City every day, so the arrival of this sailboat did not attract anyone's attention.

  Shen Xiangxiang's face was pale, and he walked out of the cabin with frivolous steps, shivering from the cold.

  She grew up in Jiangzhou, where the seasons are like spring. It was the first time she set foot in such a cold place, and she felt the cool wind blowing through her bones.

  After many days of bumpy seas, she was already seasick, but now she is top-heavy, half of her life is lost.

  Hooked snake and Xu Zumiao and their party went ashore and headed straight to the south.

  Although Bo Yuxun was wearing a mask, his figure and temperament were particularly outstanding, and he was very eye-catching in the crowd.

  Xu Zumiao turned around and found that Shen Xiangxiang was gone. She frowned and cursed secretly: "This dead girl will really cause me trouble."

  Hooked Snake glanced at her coldly: "This is the holy capital."

  Xu Zumiao hurriedly bowed her head: "The subordinates will go to her immediately, and she will never let her cause trouble."

   After talking, he turned and left.

  The first time Shen Xiangxiang heard about Shendu Kingdom was in his junior high school geography textbook, and there was only a general concept.

  When Shen Xiangxiang set foot on the land of this country for the first time, his first impression of this country was that it was cold.

  There is unmelted snow everywhere, and there are many people on the street.

  Most of these people are dressed in colorful robes, and the women's embroidered skirts are even more delicate and generous, full of an exotic style.

  Shen Xiangxiang thought that the people of this country must be very rich. She saw that every woman wore gold chains of different sizes on her arms, and the rings were jingle, which was very beautiful.

  People were walking in one direction, and Shen Xiangxiang was carried forward by the flow of people. When she came to her senses, there was no trace of Xu Zumiao and her party.

  She was a little flustered at the bottom of her heart. How could she live in a foreign country, with a language barrier and no one she knew?

  Following the flow of people, she came to a huge square, and the golden dome of the majestic palace in the distance was looming.

  What is this for?

  There were so many people, and the sun was shining brightly, Shen Xiangxiang didn't feel cold anymore.

  She secretly took out her mobile phone and found that there was no signal here.

  She waited anxiously, and after an unknown amount of time, a young man in a white robe stepped onto the high platform in the middle of the square.

  At that moment, everyone knelt down on the ground, shouting words that Shen Xiangxiang couldn't understand.

   It was too abrupt for her to stand alone. When the guards around her looked over, she quickly knelt down.

   This place really deserves to be a Christian country, and the custom of kneeling at every turn is really annoying.

  Shen Xiangxiang complained from the bottom of his heart, raised his eyes secretly, and saw the man in white robe standing in the center of the high platform, surrounded by four guards in silver armor.

  The distance is not too far, and Shen Xiangxiang has very good eyesight. She saw the face of the man in white robe clearly, and couldn't help but gasped.

  There are so many mixed-race male stars in the entertainment industry, none of them together can equal the beauty and nobility of this man.

  Everyone worships, what kind of status is this?

  For a moment, Shen Xiangxiang couldn't help but feel excited.

   Immediately afterwards, a float pulled by four white horses stopped, and Shen Xiangxiang saw that there were many silver-armored guards guarding the float. Could it be the lord of the country in such a big battle?

  While the bead curtain was shaking, a man in long golden clothes bent down and walked down from the float.

  At that moment, the people kneeling on the ground uttered an almost pious chant, like a hymn, which has been recited for a long time between heaven and earth.

  Shen Xiangxiang was shocked. She couldn't even imagine this situation in her whole life.

  The person in the golden robe has long black and moist hair, which complements the golden brocade robe, forming a strange and harmonious solemnity.

  He wore a golden mask on his face, and his facial features could not be seen, but his bare neck was so slender and elegant.

  He stepped on the ground of the world, but like a god, he stood high above the world and looked down on the world.

  The people lying on the ground are like ants, and they are always only qualified to worship.

  Shen Xiangxiang stared blankly, feeling that the scene in front of her was beyond her previous knowledge.

  Qinglong waved his hand, and the Yinjiawei walked over immediately, leading Shen Xiangxiang out of the crowd.

  Shen Xiangxiang yelled in horror, and before he could make a sound, his mouth was gagged.

  Shen Xiangxiang's heart at this moment was filled with deep fear.

  She also finally understood that here, any cleverness is useless, a humble and insignificant human being will only be reduced to dust in the face of the supreme power.

  The Yinjiawei walked up to Qinglong and whispered in his ear. Qinglong's indifferent eyes glanced at Shen Xiangxiang's face, obviously already knowing her identity.

  At that moment, Shen Xiangxiang's scalp was numb, and he was shrouded in fear of death.

  She didn't dare to be presumptuous any more, she just hung her head obediently.

  On the high platform, the Holy Lord bestowed on the prince the scepter representing the crown prince, and the prince knelt on one knee and raised his hands above his head.

  The scepter fell into his hands.

  From then on, he was the crown prince of Shendu Kingdom.

Prince Sangluo stood up, raised the scepter in his hand, and faced thousands of people, his voice rang out through the small microphone on the collar clip, and echoed for a long time in the square of Nuoda, clearly falling on every people's ears.

   "I, Sang Luo, make an oath here. From now on, I will encourage self-denial, be diligent in government and love the people, so that the people of my God can live and work in peace and contentment. Haiyan Heqing, breaking this oath is like a sword."

  Prince Sangluo raised the long knife handed by the silver armored guard, chopped it on the hard shield, and instantly the knife split in half and fell to the ground.

  There were deafening cheers at the scene.

   "Prince Sangluo, Prince Sangluo..."

   At this moment, his prestige reached its peak.

  Prince Sangluo raised his hand, motioning for everyone to keep quiet.

   "The Lord received the Buddha's advice in his dream last night. The saint will come on the day when the spring thunder strikes. Let us welcome the arrival of the saint together."
