The sky is bright summer on the banks of the Red River

Chapter 006

Ming Xia felt that the scene at this moment was very dazzling, and the reality that was too vivid and bloody made her heart that had been silent for a long time unbearable, but that was all.

Suzuki Yuri, the girl with the halo of the protagonist on her head, is crouching crouching on the tall altar made of red bricks at this moment.The altar is surrounded by huge red copper pots half a person's height, and the torches are burning in the copper pots, reflecting the scorching sun above the head, just looking at it makes people sweat.Ming Xia noticed that the girl's mouth was covered, but the eyes looking in her direction were full of fear, timidity, awe, and a strong desire to survive.The tears in the eyes could not stop falling, but there was no sound of crying.

Ming Xia guessed in her heart that Princess Nakiya must have told Xi Li the reason why she was arrested here.Therefore, it is useless for her to resist now, except for crying and sighing secretly.

Holding the hands of the maids Alanna and Gahera, Ming Xia, who was wearing the priest's cloak, slowly stepped out of the sedan chair, and sat down beside the king on the seat specially prepared for the great priest.Feeling the heat in her heart, Ming Xia really wanted to tear off the black cloak, but the reality was not allowed, in fact, Ming Xia wanted to complain in her heart: "Ailana, it doesn't matter if you put on makeup or not, With such a tight cloak covered, no one can see even if I’m ██████████████████████████████ ██████████ ███████████████████████████ by █████████████████ by █████████████████ by ████████████████ by ████████████]] wind effect.

While making complaints, His Majesty the King brought His Royal Highness Crown Prince Arvada here in a swaggering manner.Ming Xia stood up unhurriedly and saluted His Majesty the King, then sat down and did not speak, quietly watching the movement in the venue.At this time, a female voice suddenly came from behind. Needless to say, Ming Xia knew that it was the third son of Hattusha's playboy, Prince Kailu, who was thinking on his knees.

After greeting each other with his elder brother Alvada, he cast a strong gaze in the direction of Ming Xia when he sat down under the service of the maid. I felt a shudder down my spine.His highness won't hold grudges for releasing his pigeons that day, will he? !

When all the nobles who were invited to participate in the sacrificial ceremony had arrived, the imperial concubine Nakiya came out of the temple, wearing especially cool clothes.She turned her back to everyone present, muttering words, the iron ring on the top of the elk scepter in her hand jingled, and she pretended to be very serious, Ming Xia couldn't help but feel amused.

At this time, His Majesty the King suddenly turned his head and gave Ming Xia a meaningful look.Ming Xia felt this gaze, and secretly screamed in his heart that it was not good, it was so predestined, did he want to be the first bird?Forget it, His Majesty's eyes are crooked like that, so it's better to stop it yourself.After all, no one held sacrifices at this time, or, His Majesty the King

I'm not sure if I have other intentions.As a chess player, don't think too much about it, just listen to the chess player's arrangement.

Hearing that the sacrificial speech in Naji's mouth was about to be finished, the hooded guard also raised high the shiny bronze ax and was about to strike down, Ming Xia also made a move. In the blink of an eye, she , got up and left.At the same time, the mental power suddenly unfolded, moved a pile of petals prepared in the space and threw them over the altar, and immediately, countless flying peach petals appeared on the altar out of thin air, white and pink tender, colorful and fragrant , Shaking the sight of everyone present.

"Crack!", when these petals appeared, accompanied by the sound of the executioner's ax being knocked down.

Princess Najiya turned around angrily, looked at the golden chiseled wine cup rolling on the ground, and said angrily: "Who? Who is so bold to disturb the sacrifice and fool the water god?!"

Ming Xia had already left the table at this time, and was about to step up to the altar, when Princess Nakiya turned around and collided with Ming Xia's gaze, so, Ming Xia naturally became Princess Nakiya's wrath Nakiya angrily accused the person involved, "Priest Alina, even if you are the highest priest in our Western Tai Empire, you must not disturb the sacrifices and disrespect the gods."

Ming Xia bowed to Nakiya, walked up to the altar without any scruples and stood in front of the concubine with a low laugh, "Princess Nakiya, please calm down, it's not that Alina doesn't respect the gods." Although I don't know what Supiruli Uma I's intention is, but it is certain that he wants to stop the queen's actions through his own hands. In this case, why not follow his will.Thinking of this, Ming Xia smiled knowingly, and said: "Since this girl appeared in the spring, she might also be the envoy bestowed by the water god Desup to the Xitai Empire. Maybe it's better to stay and bring real happiness to the Xitai Empire." Prosperity."

At this time, Prince Kailu, who threw the cups, came over and interrupted, and said casually: "I'm really sorry, Priest Alina, Queen Mother, I still have the cups." He went straight to Suzuki Yuri, He untied the linen cloth that covered her mouth, showed a very seductive smile to Xili, and said to herself, "It really is this girl."

After a pause, he stood up, made a rather annoyed expression, and asked Ming Xia and his father, "Prince Alina, father, the sacrifices to the gods must be pure and innocent. A virgin, this is the most basic condition, right?" Ming Xia nodded, Prince Kailu held his forehead with one hand, and continued regretfully: "Then, knowing that the sacrifice is not pure and pure, but It is also a crime to conceal and not report, right?"

Prince Kailu didn't wait for everyone to understand the deep meaning in his words, and deliberately sighed deeply: "I'd better be honest," he said, shaking

Holding Suzuki Yuri who was on the ground in her arms, she explained a fact very seriously: "She is already my woman, I didn't know that she was a sacrifice, and I took away her purity."

All the single and married ladies present blushed, including most of the men.There were constant whispers in the seats, and Ming Xia clearly heard the most sentence, "As expected of the playboy of Hattushas, ​​the shot is really fast enough."

Concubine Nakiya shook her head in astonishment: "How is this possible, it is absolutely impossible." In fact, Ming Xia guessed that the concubine wanted to say: Damn, my old lady just summoned her here yesterday. No matter how fast you start, it's impossible.

Prince Kailu ignored Princess Nakiya's words, turned his head and smiled at his stepmother, "Mother, why are you so sure?" After speaking, he suddenly hugged Suzuki Yuri who was already flushed in her arms , asked loudly on purpose: "Do you still remember what happened under the tree by the city wall yesterday?"

Suzuki Yuri was irritated by Prince Kailu's words, and immediately roared loudly: "Ah! That's because you forced..." The kiss, just the last word, disappeared.

All the people present blushed again.Ming Xia wanted to scold in his heart, why is red, how many chickens are there?What is pretending to be pure? It's not just messing around at night and dressing up as a human being in leather during the day.

Looking at the dramatic scene in front of him as if nothing had happened, he appropriately interrupted the topic they were focusing on and said, "Since this is the case, there is no need for this girl to go to the temple to serve the gods." Ming Xia said calmly to Prince Kailu: " Then, this girl will be taken away by you, Prince Kailu."

Then, Ming Xia turned around and said to His Majesty the King: "Your Majesty, I interrupted the ceremony. I will send a hundred goats to the Water God Temple to complete today's interrupted ceremony."

Sitting in the upper seat, King Supiro Uma I nodded in satisfaction with Ming Xia's proposal, and perhaps even more satisfied with her taking action to stop the imperial concubine, even though he is still not very clear about the imperial concubine's intentions.This time, His Majesty the King smiled with satisfaction: "Since the great priest has made arrangements, then follow the instructions of the great priest."

"Father, queen, Priest Alina, I will take this girl away." Prince Kailu picked up Suzuki Yuri and said as he walked off the altar: "Mother, I will send someone to send her off later. It is routine for a hundred cows to come to the Water God Temple, right, Priest Alina?!" The last sentence was addressed to Ming Xia.

Ming Xia met his inspecting and probing eyes, nodded expressionlessly, bowed to His Majesty the King, and left the Water God Temple ahead of time with her four maids.When leaving, I also heard His Majesty the king's advice to let Prince Kailu find a woman to settle down as soon as possible.Ming Xia was happy in his heart, and scolded:

It's really hard to say about your son.

In the evening of that day, Ming Xia's slave had already sent a hundred goats to the Water God Temple. Ming Xia sat by the lotus pond and pulled the petals of the lotus in his hand, but his heart ached because of his inexplicable purse bleeding.Seeing her upset look, Ailana quietly placed behind her after preparing dinner, and then left, leaving Ming Xia the space to think alone.

And in Prince Kailu's palace, Xili was talking to the waiter Tite who looked like her sister Yongmei, Prince Kailu.

"Tite, is it really okay to use someone as a substitute to curse and kill other people?" Xili, who was shivering in a corner, was so lonely that she recalled the thrilling scene in the morning, and asked the question in her heart.

Tite, who was making her bed, was startled, stopped what he was doing, turned around and shouted at her, "Miss Xili, that's a crime!"

"According to what you said, is this true?" The dumbfounded Xili was still immersed in the shock of cursing someone to kill someone.

Tito nodded and continued to literacy for Xili: "Yes, a powerful priest seems to be able to do it." After a pause, he pinched the sheet in his hand and said, "However, it is said that when you want to curse and kill others , must use snakes." He thought for a while, and said: "Miss Xili, you just mentioned that people should be used as sacrifices, so the person to be cursed must be a person of high morals, prestige, or a rather noble status."

After saying this, Tite also felt that something was wrong, and he also asked Xili curiously, "Miss Xili, why are you asking this?"

"No, I'm just curious." Xi Li quickly denied, "The person who interrupted the sacrifice today was the one who was tightly wrapped from head to toe and wearing a black cloak, she seemed to have a very Noble, it seems that even the imperial concubine is afraid of her!" Silly child, it is His Majesty the king behind her who is afraid of the imperial concubine Nakiya.

Tite suddenly laughed and said, "You mean she is the priest Alina." When Tite mentioned Ming Xia, he narrowed his eyes with a smile and said, "She is the priest appointed by His Majesty himself, the petals that disturbed the sight in the morning It is her magical power. I heard that she can control the growth of plants, which is very powerful. Over the years, it is all because of her praying in the Great Temple of the Sun God day and night that the people of the Xitai Empire have a very good harvest. Thanks to Goddess Alina for her gift to the empire, she gave us a good priest."
