Chapter 306 Thanks
The noise here finally alarmed the people below the viewing platform.
Rong Que's frown relaxed. Su Qingqing did not drop the golden cup, but smoke floated over from the other side of the viewing platform. It seemed that the fire had successfully burned the snakes.
"The Queen succeeded!" Minglu's eyes gleamed with excitement.
"Your Majesty, there was an inexplicable fire behind the viewing stand!" A young eunuch came running over from a distance in a hurry.
The Minister of Rites had just felt something was wrong, and when he heard the word "fire", he immediately realized that the group of snakes over there might have been set on fire by Su Qingqing. He had no time to think about how Su Qingqing did it, but saw Su Qingqing still standing in her red dress on the viewing platform above his head, while the official from the Ministry of Rites who was in charge of the ceremony was nowhere to be seen.
His heartbeat paused, and the Minister of Rites hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I will take people to put out the fire right away."
Minister of War He Chao sneered, "Why don't we put out the fire? Isn't this fire the feedback from the thousands of heroic souls underground to our queen? Otherwise, why didn't other places catch fire, but this marble staircase caught fire? Who has ever seen a stone catch fire for no reason? Lord Xu, please be patient, this heroic fire, look, isn't the queen still up there? If something really happened, with our queen's ability, are you afraid that she won't be able to fly down?"
The Minister of Rites was speechless with what he said.
Coming here was originally the auspicious time chosen by the Imperial Astronomical Observatory after "calculation" to comfort the heroic spirits. After He Chao said this, who would dare to refute it?
To refute it would mean that the Imperial Observatory's calculations were inaccurate or that the Empress was not worthy!
Before this, the Minister of Rites still felt that today's matter was a sure thing. He observed Rong Que's expression all the way and always saw that he looked anxious and worried. This worry made him feel at ease.
But now...
“Look!”
Suddenly, just as He Chao finished speaking, someone shouted, and everyone looked up to see more than a dozen eagles suddenly appear in the sky.
Each eagle's wingspan is as long as a cow.
The falcon locked onto its target and rushed straight towards the viewing stand at a speed so fast that everyone gasped at the sudden change.
"Oh no! They are going to attack the Queen!"
Rong Que still didn't wait for Su Qingqing to smash the wine cup, but amid the exclamations of the crowd, he saw two people suddenly appear beside Su Qingqing.
He put on armor and drew his longbow high.
One is Xiao Yu, the illegitimate son of Rong'an Marquis's Mansion who was taken away by Su Qingqing.
One is Lieutenant General Zhao, Zhao Rongzhe, also known as Zhao Jiekang, and the younger brother of the wife of the Datong County Magistrate, Xiaobao.
This person, who was rescued from the Heavenly Prison by Su Qingqing and sent to the military camp of the Duke of Zhenguo, was quietly taken back to the Su family army by Su Qingqing after the Duke of Zhenguo's army was defeated.
Wang Yu didn't make any move.
But Admiral Zhao is back!
Looking at the three people on the viewing platform, Rong Que seemed to see Su Qingqing riding on a fierce horse and leading the battle, seemed to see her being invincible in the enemy camp, seemed to see her being unparalleled in the charge.
This was the woman he loved.
Standing high up, looking down on everything.
He looked up to her willingly.
Xiao Yu, Lieutenant General Zhao and Su Qingqing stood back to back, forming a pincer attack. Each of them held a large bow in his hand, and arrows flew out of the air, making a sharp whistling sound in the air.
Below the viewing stand.
Everyone was dumbfounded and exclaimed continuously.
"Oh My God!"
"Depend on!"
“Awesome!”
"I've seen people kill two birds with one arrow, but this is the first time I've seen four with this arrow."
"That's amazing! How long does it take to practice this?"
"As expected of General Su!"
The whistling sound that could give a person goose bumps all over the body kept rising and falling in Rong Que's ears. Looking up, Ming Lu had tears in his eyes.
"Your Majesty is really..."
He was so excited that his voice choked, but he couldn't think of an appropriate word to describe this scene.
Before today, Su Qingqing told Rong Que several times not to worry, saying that she could handle it.
But Rongque was still uneasy.
Until this moment, Minglu clenched his fists. This conspiracy between Duke Xue and the Minister of Rites made Su Qingqing the biggest highlight in this enthronement ceremony.
This is the real enthronement ceremony for a military queen.
Dozens of falcons were pierced by arrows and fell from the sky with a crackling sound like hail.
The Minister of Rites turned pale, and he asked the person next to him in horror, "Who is the person next to the Queen?"
They were clearly keeping a close eye on anyone who could bring assistance to the Queen, and even Wang Yu was downstairs and didn't go up, so who was the person who suddenly appeared above!
Where did it come from!
The Minister of Rites was shocked and felt extremely frightened.
What happened today was completely beyond his expectations.
According to their previous plan, if the snakes and falcons could not capture Su Qingqing, then the vicious dog would be the last hurdle.
But now, Su Qingqing had shot the falcon through and knocked it to the ground, but the vicious dog didn't move at all.
What's going on.
Where is the dog?
Where did you go?
On the viewing platform, the last falcon was shot down to the ground. Su Qingqing picked up the glass of wine that the official from the Ministry of Rites had brought to her, raised her arm high, and spilled the wine.
"Salute to the Great Yan Dynasty and the tens of thousands of heroic souls!"
As she spoke in a resounding voice, Xiao Yu and Lieutenant General Zhao knelt on one knee on both sides, clasped their fists and said in unison: "Long live the queen!"
There were only two people shouting, but it sounded like the momentum of thousands of troops.
So far.
The ceremony of enthroning Queen Su Qingqing is over.
People who don't know the truth just think that the falcon was prepared by the Ministry of Rites as part of the enthronement ceremony.
After all, she is the general's queen, so she must be different from others.
An inspiring atmosphere permeated the entire team that came to participate in the enthronement ceremony, and everyone's eyes were shining with enthusiasm.
Only the Minister of Rites and a few other people who knew the truth looked pale.
Su Qingqing was pregnant and it was not advisable for her to move too much. Brigadier General Zhao and Xiao Yu, one on each side, took her and rushed down from the viewing platform.
After landing steadily, Su Qingqing nodded politely to the Minister of Rites, "Thank you, Lord Xu, for the gift of enthronement that you carefully prepared today. I am very satisfied with it. In addition, I also particularly like the other gift that Lord Xu sent."
Huang Zhaozhong looked at the Minister of Rites in confusion and muttered, "He also gave a gift?"
The meaning of this statement is very clear.
It is a blessing not to commit sins and cause destruction.
The Minister of Rites was a little afraid to look Su Qingqing in the eye.
His gaze fell on the two people beside Su Qingqing . When he saw their faces clearly, his eyes widened in an instant and he almost screamed out in surprise.
Rong'an Hou's son, Xiao Yu, is actually here!
Lieutenant General Zhao clasped his fists towards the Minister of Rites and said with a polite smile, "Thank you, Lord Xu, for preparing a military dog team for Your Majesty. Your Majesty was preparing such a special team recently. I didn't expect that Lord Xu would directly send hundreds of hunting dogs to Your Majesty. For this great gift, the people of Dayan Dynasty will be grateful to Lord Xu for the rest of their lives."
After he finished speaking, He Chao added in a gloomy tone, "Thank you, your whole family!"
