Time is the first quarter of the day, only three hours from now.
Meeting the Human Emperor is the most solemn event for the human race, and the human race attaches great importance to etiquette. Different occasions require different etiquette, and this is especially true when meeting the emperor in the imperial palace.
Therefore, along with the imperial edict, there was also a set of court uniforms that belonged exclusively to Xu Qing.
This court uniform is extremely complicated, with many patterns, embroidered with five-clawed black dragons, and rune marks. There are more than a hundred pieces of various sizes from head to toe. If you don't know how to dress, it will be difficult to dress neatly.
Li Yunshan, Kong Xianglong and others looked at the court uniforms, feeling a little dazed.
They didn't know how to wear this court uniform, they could only feel that everything was extraordinary.
Even the captain, who has experienced many lives, now looks at those clothes with wide eyes and a bit of confusion, but he can feel that these clothes contain precious light, which is much better than the clothes of You Jing back then.
It is surrounded by fairy energy and flashes of dark light. When combined together, it looks like a moving magic weapon.
"It's so rich!"
The captain licked his lips, feeling very envious. He thought in his heart that he had to do something, otherwise, his reputation as a senior brother would be seriously damaged.
As for Ning Yan, he couldn't wear ordinary clothes to meet the saints. He had his own special clothes. At the same time, he was confused about the ministers' court clothes. He scratched his head and waved his hand.
"I don't know how to wear this. How about I send a message to Third Sister and ask her to come over?"
"No need." Zi Xuan said lightly.
"People need to be polite in order to develop wisdom, and the spring meeting is called the court, and the autumn meeting is called the king. The former is red, and the latter is mysterious."
"The golden dragon is the emperor, and the five claws are the respect. The black dragon is the territory, and the five claws are also the respect. This is the weather attire for guarding one side in the ancient system."
"The Human Emperor has not been disrespectful in the statement of the imperial edict and in the gift of court uniforms. We must not be disrespectful either."
"As for the method of wearing it, it is an ancient refining method, which conforms to the Five Elements and Nine Palaces, combined with the evolution of the stars. There are a total of forty-nine different methods to suit different occasions and ceremonies."
"Today is the Human Emperor's summons. Xu Qing represents the Shenglan Territory, so he needs to wear the ancient attire of the frontier sealer. According to the ancient calendar, this attire is because guarding one side is a meritorious service, so there is no need to kneel down before the Emperor. The Human Emperor nodded first
Three times, I was given a seat, and the weather was long and I bowed and thanked you nine times."
As Zixuan's words came out, Ning Yan, the captain, and Li Yunshan and others all looked at Zixuan, each feeling unclear in their hearts.
In their opinion, although Zixuan's understanding of this could be explained by reading a lot of books, they still vaguely felt that it was not that simple...
While everyone was speculating, Zixuan glanced at the black court uniform, raised his right hand and waved it slightly, and suddenly more than a hundred pieces of clothing flew over, scattered around Xu Qing.
Xu Qing looked at those clothes. Due to his knowledge since childhood, he didn't understand these ancient etiquette very well, but he felt calm.
Because... there are probably few people in this imperial capital who know more about the ancient emperor period than Zixuan.
Xu Qing even felt that there was a certain possibility that Zixuan might have been involved in the customization of court uniforms back then.
"Please go out and wait for a while." Zi Xuan's voice was cold. Her words at the moment seemed to contain some majesty. Li Yunshan and others couldn't help but lower their heads and left the hall.
As for the captain and Ning Yan, they both left quickly because they were afraid of Zixuan.
Soon, only Xu Qing and Zixuan were left in the hall.
"It's hard to put on court clothes by yourself. Ah Qing, just close your eyes and I'll help you."
Zixuan's voice was soft. Xu Qing took a deep breath and closed his eyes obediently.
The next moment, with Zixuan's wave, the clothes on Xu Qing's body separated instantly. When Xu Qing's body was shaken, pieces of court clothes fell down, and were combined one by one according to different matching methods and put on Xu Qing's body.
While wearing it, Zixuan's voice also echoed in Xu Qing's ears.
"The imperial court dress of Tianwei is mainly black, and its shape is dignified and square, so it is called Xuanduan. The first dress that matches Xuanduan is Weimao. The material required the bones of the beasts that swallowed the sky to make the crown ornaments."
"Nowadays, the sky-swallowing beasts are extinct and replaced by immortal and mysterious jade. Because this kind of court dress is composed of Weimai and Xuanduan, so 'Wenduan' became the official term for court dress in the ancient emperor period."
Listening to Zixuan's voice, Xu Qing became more and more sure of his inner guess. He could feel that the clothes outside his body were being put on in various combinations. It seemed like a lot, but it was very comfortable on his body.
Even the cultivation level in the body has accelerated slightly, and a sense of transparency in the heart of heaven has arisen spontaneously. It seems that the influence of laws and regulations has also been blessed a lot.
"Okay, you can open your eyes."
After a while, Zixuan's voice came.
Xu Qing opened his eyes after hearing this, and the first thing he saw was a look of excitement and appreciation in Zixuan's eyes in front of him.
Then he raised his hand and waved, and a piece of water mist rose up and gathered into a mirror, reflecting his own appearance.
The black mysterious end has a majestic meaning in its square shape. The five-clawed black dragon on the body seems to be alive. As the robe dances, it seems to be wandering around the body, and there is a faint roar echoing.
The tips of the boots on both feet are raised and are shaped like three circles. On the head, there is a jade cloud belt under the black jade crown, and the jade pendant and ribbon are all available.
Coupled with Xu Qing's extraordinary appearance, when combined together, the momentum is astonishing.
"Yes, we will treat the Emperor with courtesy. If the current Emperor does not understand, it is because he is ignorant, which shows his quality."
A proud smile broke out on Zixuan's face.
Xu Qing blinked, not knowing what to say.
After Zixuan looked up and down, he walked up to Xu Qing and adjusted the details for him. Finally, he took Xu Qing's arm with satisfaction and led him out of the hall and appeared in front of everyone.
Seeing Xu Qing dressed like this for the first time, everyone was in a state of confusion.
Li Yunshan was in a daze. The first thing he felt about Xu Qing, who was wearing court clothes, was that of pressure. This was not brought about by cultivation, but the meaning of the court clothes.
The captain's breathing was slightly rapid, and the desire for court uniforms in his heart became stronger.
Kong Xianglong took a deep breath and lowered his head solemnly.
As for Ning Yan, he was stunned for a moment and sighed in his heart. He felt that when the boss walked out in this outfit, he would definitely make the hearts of all the female cultivators in the imperial capital beat wildly. If the boss had thoughts about a certain female cultivator, he would probably even have his own Sixth Emperor Brother.
Everyone should be willing to accept the defeat.
"Although monks don't value appearance that much, but...but...how can you have such a monster's appearance? Is the boss really a human?"
Xu Qing didn't pay attention to everyone's reaction. He was feeling the active changes in his cultivation under this imperial uniform.
Although he had never worn clothes in such a grand manner before, which made him feel a little uncomfortable, he had to say that this court uniform was very comfortable on him.
In this way, an hour later, after Ning Yan also changed into the prince's robe, the group left Ning Yan's mansion and headed for the palace.
It's still dark at the moment, because it's autumn, and the night wind is a bit colder, but not biting.
There were very few pedestrians on the streets late at night. It was not until half an hour later that as the sky dimmed in the distance, more and more people got up early. Xu Qing and his party had also passed through the teleportation array and arrived behind the statue of the Sword-holding Emperor.
On the Rainbow Bridge.
This bridge can only be stepped on by qualified ministers during court meetings. In addition, only those who have this qualification need to be summoned by the Emperor on weekdays.
Therefore, Zixuan and others from Fenghai County were unable to accompany him.
And this time the audience was a court meeting, so when Xu Qing and Ning Yan appeared on the Rainbow Bridge, what they saw were figures following Changhong.
Each of those figures were wearing court clothes, some were male or female, their expressions were majestic, and the fluctuations in their cultivation levels emanating from their bodies were very impressive.
The color of the clothes was mostly blue, with occasional red. As for black... Xu Qing looked around and saw only seven people.
The cultivation levels of these seven people are all at the fourth level of Guixu. Some are alone and some are surrounded by others. From a visual perspective, it is very obvious.
Xu Qing was checking others, and others were also looking at Xu Qing. His black court uniform was equally obvious to others.
However, they were not familiar with each other, so at most they only paid attention and did not talk to each other.
Xu Qing's gaze fell further away. At the end of the rainbow, there was a palace that seemed to be floating in nothingness.
It and the ancient emperor star behind it are integrated in the breath. It is vast and boundless. While shocking the mind, its momentum is equally majestic and the golden light shines.
Xu Qing stared and flew over the rainbow. Ning Yan followed Xu Qing closely. The closer he got to the palace, the more nervous he became. However, after feeling Xu Qing's calmness, his heart became somewhat calmer.
As the two approached, the palace became clearer and clearer, with carved beams and painted buildings, beautiful buildings and jade buildings, and intricately undulating halls. Outside the palace gate directly in front, there were two golden-armored giants, holding big swords and glaring eyes.
Pass all beginners.
When the figures of Xu Qing and Ning Yan appeared outside the palace gate, the two golden-armored giants looked away without blocking them. They allowed Xu Qing and Ning Yan to step in. They walked through Chengxian Square and looked up.
On top of a wide and vast 10,000-step staircase is a magnificent hall.
At this moment, hundreds of people were standing in Chengxian Square, all waiting. The arrival of Xu Qing and Ning Yan also attracted the attention of people here.
Until a moment later, when the sun rose in the distance, at exactly the moment, a majestic voice came from the top of the steps.
"Everyone comes to court!"
With the sound, the sky was billowing, and golden dragons flew out from the clouds and mist, surrounding each other in all directions, each emitting dragon chants, and all the statues from the imperial capital emitted auspicious light, making the heaven and earth colorful and peaceful.
In Chengxian Square, all the cultivators of the race, according to the color of their clothes, took off one after another and walked towards the main hall.
Since the King of Heaven does not need to attend court, black is the first to rise into the sky here, followed by red, then blue, cyan...
Seeing dozens of people in black court uniforms flying out, Xu Qing took a deep breath, looked solemn, and flew up. He jumped over the steps and saw the open door of the hall and the Human Emperor sitting on the dragon throne in the distance.
