Everyone turned to look east, and sure enough, a red sun was rising slowly.
At this moment, the red sun seemed to be right beside them, so close and so beautiful!
It was their first time riding the Vermilion Bird divine beast, their first time soaring into the air, and they even witnessed the birth of their child. This will probably be the most beautiful and unforgettable experience of their lives!
Looking at the rising sun, Bai seemed to see boundless hope: "Xuanyuan Xi, it's a good name, and it has a good meaning, so let's call her Xuanyuan Xi."
Bai gently pinched Xiao Bao's cheek again: "Xiao Bao, your mother gave you such a beautiful name!"
Su Xuening looked at the little baby in her arms who wouldn't wake up no matter how she tried to coax him, and couldn't help but laugh.
After looking at her grandson, Bai looked at Su Xuening with heartache and said, "Ning'er, you've worked so hard."
Su Xuening shook her head at her: "As long as the child is alright, it's not hard."
The person she wronged the most in her past life was this child.
In this life, her greatest wish is for her child to be born safely and grow up peacefully!
As long as the child is alright, she would do anything she was asked to do.
Bai hugged her tightly, feeling sorry for her: "My dear child, I'm sorry you had to go through this. Zhan'er should have been by your side at such an important moment."
Before Zhan'er left Kyoto, the thing he was most concerned about was Ning'er giving birth.
He had said more than once that he would be there for Ning'er during childbirth, but in the end, he was unable to be there for her.
Fortunately, everything went relatively smoothly. Although there were many twists and turns, Ning'er gave birth successfully, and the baby was safe and healthy, chubby and healthy. This was the best outcome.
Su Xuening didn't blame Xuan Yuanzhan. She knew he had his reasons and that he had always wanted to be with her during childbirth. Things didn't go as planned, but it didn't matter; the baby was delivered safely.
As long as she and her child are alright, they will meet sooner or later, and Xuanyuan Zhan will see their child sooner or later as well.
But after not seeing him for so long, she really misses him!
"Chirp!"
Just as everyone was circling around Xiaobao, the fire phoenix suddenly let out a long cry and began to swoop down.
Everyone sitting on the back of the Fire Phoenix was startled, and only breathed a sigh of relief when they were sure they wouldn't be thrown off by its dive.
"Have we arrived in Xiliang?"
Youyi glanced down subconsciously, only to feel dizzy.
The layers of clouds moved upwards rapidly, making the scenery below seem incredibly distant. The feeling of weightlessness during the rapid descent made Youyi glance at it and immediately look away.
My goodness, this fire phoenix is ​​definitely not something an ordinary person can make; it's terrifying!
Pei Luo and the others also gathered together. Although they knew the fire phoenix was safe, the rapid descent still made them huddle together.
Fire Phoenix was very fast, and in the blink of an eye they saw the houses below.
"We've arrived at the capital!" Jinzhu recognized the capital of Xiliang immediately and reminded them.
The group, atop the fire phoenix, gazed at the gradually enlarging houses, streets, farmlands, and trees below, their faces filled with wonder.
This Western Liang is indeed quite different from Eastern Chu.
Leaving aside the farmland and trees, the buildings, houses, and streets are completely different from those in Dongchu; they have a completely different style.
Apart from Pei Luo, who had traveled to Xiliang before, the others were visiting Xiliang for the first time, so they found it all very strange.
As the fire phoenix descended again, they soon saw all sorts of people on the streets below.
Although it was early morning, there were already quite a few people on the streets, perhaps because this was the capital of Xiliang.
And believe it or not, not only are the buildings in Xiliang different from those in Dongchu, but the clothing of the people in Xiliang is also different from that in Dongchu.
The men and women here are dressed quite lightly, especially the women. Many of them have bare shoulders, wearing only a thin veil, or some don't even wear a veil, just exposing half of their shoulders. They also wear asymmetrical skirts that expose their legs. Even the women who wear trousers often roll up their cuffs. The openness of the women of Western Liang is truly different from the conservatism of the women of Eastern Chu.
As expected of a matriarchal society, Xiliang's women's clothing clearly reflects this. Xiliang doesn't impose many restrictions on women's attire; it seems anything goes. Conversely, the men are dressed more formally, with no revealing clothing.
People on the street also saw the fire phoenix, but they weren't as surprised as the people of Dongchu, which meant they probably saw the fire phoenix often.
However, since it was the Vermilion Bird, the guardian beast of their Western Liang, its appearance still attracted everyone's attention.
"Why has the Vermilion Bird divine beast appeared again?"
"The Vermilion Bird has been appearing quite frequently this year."
"Yes, in previous years the Vermilion Bird divine beast would only appear during the annual New Year's sacrifice, but this year it has appeared several times. What's going on?"
"The appearance of a mythical beast, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing!"
"Let's hope it's a good thing. My divine beast, you must continue to protect Xiliang so that the weather will be favorable and the country will be peaceful and prosperous!"
Many people from Xiliang below were worshipping the Fire Phoenix, showing that the people of Xiliang truly believed in the Vermilion Bird divine beast.
Compared to the extent to which the people of Xiliang worshipped the Vermilion Bird, the people of Dongchu worshipped the Black Tortoise far less.
After all, their divine beasts had truly appeared, while their Xuanwu divine beast from Eastern Chu had not yet been officially summoned.
It is said that only the emperors of Eastern Chu can summon the Xuanwu divine beast, but so many emperors of Eastern Chu have failed to actually summon the Xuanwu divine beast. Does this mean that the emperor of Eastern Chu who can truly summon the Xuanwu divine beast has not yet appeared?
Su Xuening subconsciously looked at the sleeping baby in her arms, wondering if her baby would ever have the chance to summon the Xuanwu divine beast.
Just as everyone was looking down at the people and scenery with curiosity, the fire phoenix carried them directly into the palace.
Although both were imperial palaces, the architecture of the Western Liang Imperial Palace differed somewhat from that of the Eastern Chu Imperial Palace.
The Eastern Chu palace was all red walls and green tiles, while the Western Liang palace was all gold, truly giving off a magnificent and resplendent feeling.
The Eastern Chu Imperial Palace consisted of single-story buildings, while the Western Liang Imperial Palace had many two- or three-story pavilions. The Eastern Chu Imperial Palace was filled with covered walkways, while the Western Liang Imperial Palace had almost none. The construction of other gardens, rockeries, pavilions, and lakes was also different, making it a completely different style from the Eastern Chu Imperial Palace.
"Chirp!" With a clear phoenix cry echoing throughout the palace, the fire phoenix landed in front of a palace.
As soon as the Fire Phoenix landed, Jinzhu introduced Su Xuening and the others: "Miss, Young Master, Imperial Concubine, and Masters, this is the Western Liang Imperial Palace."
Before Su Xuening and the others could disembark from the Fire Phoenix, a number of palace servants suddenly ran towards them.
When Su Xuening and the others saw so many people suddenly arrive, they immediately became a little nervous.
