The Autumn Moon Lantern Festival is here.
The city of Luojing was decorated with lights and lanterns hanging everywhere. In order to celebrate the most grand festival of the year, various provinces and counties sent gifts. Walking on the streets, you can also see different customs from various provinces.
The colorful wind fish dancing in the wind are gifts from the Flame Ray Continent. These round-mouthed wind fish in red, blue, purple, yellow and green colors face the wind, and the airflow passes through them, filling their cloth bodies.
There are many beautiful flowers sent from Huaxu Continent on both sides of the street, clustered in beautiful pots, and their faint fragrance drifts in the wind.
During the festival, restaurants of all sizes in Luojing will also serve beast meat from several continents of Beifu Mountain. These are magical beast meats with extraordinary effects, rich in mana and magic power, which are beneficial to many practitioners, and some special types have the effect of curing diseases.
Operas from Mushan Island, telling stories of Eastern and Western legends, are now performed on the Liyuan stage. Huilu Island, home to the Xiangyu School, sends special Autumn Moon Lantern Festival greeting cards. These exquisitely crafted cards, featuring silver-painted images of palaces, bright moons, slanting branches, flowers, and plants, are different each year and are a favorite collection of many.
What Beisongzhou sent this time was a very distinctive cold food snack, which has a sweet and mild taste and is suitable for all ages. After the royal family accepted a part of it, the rest was naturally rewarded to the ministers and the people. If you have some spare money, you can buy it in the government-run shops.
As for Longquanzhou, the richest province in the world, it sent beautiful coral pearls to decorate the venue of the Burning Tail Banquet.
Nandou Academy, Loran Hill's room.
Today the room was not as deserted as usual, but was filled with four or five young girls. Except for Ye Ling, they were all fellow disciples of Loran Hill in the Xiangyu Sect.
As for Loran Hill, she was sitting in front of the dressing mirror, being helped by her companions to dress up.
"Sister Luo Lan, please put on this pearl pendant as well." The girl next to her excitedly picked up the exquisite pearl earrings. The rose gold pearls and light silver ornaments matched perfectly, which was pleasing to the eye.
"Oh, I'd better not do that." Loran Hill said a little scaredly as she looked at herself in the mirror. She didn't want to have her ears pierced.
At this moment, she was wearing a gorgeous and luxurious dress. Its base was pure white silk, and the sleeves and collar were embroidered with vines, branches, flowers, and leaves in gold thread, creating a three-dimensional and delicate look. Furthermore, the dress was covered with a layer of incredibly light, pale gold gauze, making the sleeves appear even more hazy and beautiful.
At the same time, the outermost layer of gauze is also decorated with golden flowers, plants and phoenixes, which contrast with the white silk and gold-embroidered clothes inside, giving it a more three-dimensional and layered feel, making people sigh at the exquisite and luxurious design of this dress.
After writing the letter a few days ago, a reply was finally sent from the palace yesterday, which stated that they would respect Loran Hill's own ideas, but since she did make a contribution this time, she could not completely refuse the reward, as this would bring about a bad influence.
So in the end, the end of the letter stated that the princess' previous title would be changed to Goldfinch Priestess, and she would be listed as one of the Four Priests, the Wind Priest, as a recognition of the power held by the girl.
In the Eastern Continent, the status of the Phoenix of Five Virtues is supreme, and the title second only to it is the Sparrow. This is also one of the sources of the dynasty's name and cannot be surpassed, so the Golden Sparrow Priestess is the highest priestess that can be canonized in the dynasty.
However, this title is too high. Generally speaking, it will not be conferred within the dynasty unless there are special achievements. Although Loran Hill has made great contributions this time, he still lacks the qualifications and fame to get this title.
However, the letter stated that it was a special period and special circumstances, so special treatment was required and asked Loran Hill not to refuse.
At first, Loran Hill was a little hesitant, but fortunately, the messenger who delivered the message said that this title was only an honorary title and had no real position. This made the girl feel a little relieved, because she might not stay in the East Continent for long and would leave soon.
After hearing the girl's words, the messenger said that he would convey it to Lord Chifeng, and let Loran Hill enjoy tomorrow's Burning Tail Banquet.
"Will Lord Chifeng appear at the banquet?" Loran Hill asked with a little curiosity before leaving.
"No, for Lord Chifeng, the year is but one day, and the annual Burning Tail Feast is nothing unusual."
After the messenger continued to explain some things, he left a box of clothes and accessories for Loranhill to wear before the banquet, and then said goodbye and left.
After opening the box and seeing the extremely complicated court costumes, Loran Hill felt helpless and had a headache. He had to call some fellow disciples for help, which led to the scene today.
Loran Hill looked at herself in the smooth bronze mirror. After tying the pure white satin corset, she was finally dressed. The next step was to put on the various jewelry that had been prepared.
The first is a string of pendants carved from mutton-fat white jade, with three small crescents and five small stars arranged in a staggered manner. They are strung together with gold rope knots and hung on the side of the girl's waist, contrasting with the patterns on her skirt.
The other is a bracelet that looks like silver thread. It is woven with delicate silver thread to imitate the style of vines. There are also small silver leaves in it, which is very delicate.
Next is the pendant on the forehead. A tear-shaped translucent gem hangs in the middle, its color is like a light pink rose, and there are smaller broom leaves on both sides.
The last part is the pearl hairnet that covers the hair at the back of the head. Tiny pearls of uniform size are dotted among the hair, like stars at night, flickering.
After finishing all the dressing, Loran Hill slowly stood up and walked a few steps in the house. Then, she could hear the slight sound of the jade pendants around her waist colliding with each other. A graceful and elegant temperament perfectly emanated from this girl.
"His Highness, dressed like this, is truly..." The girls nearby opened their mouths wide, unable to find the right words to describe this breathtaking beauty that defied imagination. Every slight movement seemed to reach the deepest depths of the heart, making people cheer and sway, swaying with their footsteps.
