The emperor always wants to promise himself

Chapter 249 Birthday
The sun was rising and the golden light appeared. The entire capital was still in a good sleep. Most people heard the continuous sound of firecrackers before they got up.

The sound of firecrackers was rapid and joyful, and it rang for a quarter of an hour.

The people who got up early put down their work and stopped to look in the direction of the palace. They suddenly realized that today is the birthday of the new emperor.

After the sound of firecrackers, the Royal Forest Army came out of the palace, lined up on both sides to clear the way, all of them were tied with red silk, with broad knives around their waists, full of air.

A group of maids in pale pink palace attire carried baskets and distributed wedding cakes and candies to the common people on the side of the road.

"His Majesty's birthday, amnesty to the world, special gifts of wedding cakes and wedding candies, and enjoyment with the common people!"

The captain of the Imperial Forest Army who led the team shouted: "Scatter copper coins at noon, and hold a banquet at night. The king and the people are happy!"

The people immediately smiled and knelt on the side of the road and shouted: "Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live——"

The court ladies grabbed the sugar bags and threw them on both sides, and the common people rushed forward to grab them.

The Imperial Forest Army maintained order: "Everyone, don't crowd, there are a lot of things, you have to walk around the street three times, everyone has a share!"

"Okay!"

"I snatched it! This bag is full of sugar!"

"My bag is bread, and it's still hot!"

"What cake?"

"Meat, sugar... Well, it's so delicious!"

The common people were all smiling, and some of them started eating on the street.

Gongs, drums and firecrackers sounded all the way, and the streets and alleys were very lively.

There were also lanterns and festoons in front of the post house, and the envoys from the Three Kingdoms watched curiously.

The customs of several countries are different, and this is the first time they have seen such a scene.

Wen Niannian was standing at the gate of the post house, just when a maid threw a sugar bag here, she stretched out her hand to catch it, and said with a smile, "Is it a good start?"

"Princess, the street is so lively, what kind of scene is it in the palace?"

Wen Niannian tossed the sugar bag and said with a smile, "We'll find out in the evening?"

……

At this time, the palace was full of joy, the palace people were all wearing red, the little eunuchs wore red belts, and the maids wore red silk flowers on their heads, all of them had smiles on their faces.

People coming and going are brisk, busy and orderly.

Xiao Yu changed into a purple python robe today, wearing a thick golden belt, his hair was tied up high, and the golden crown shone coldly in the morning light.

Standing in the corridor and looking around, she saw that colored silk was hung on the eaves overnight, and the palace lanterns were replaced with new ones.
Hongxiu and Lu asked them to come out of the hall, looked at Xiao Yu's body, and said with a smile: "My lord looks really good today, I don't know how many girls will want to secretly agree to it when I let it out."

Xiao Yu chuckled lightly: "What nonsense are you talking about? When will I not look good?"

Hongxiu and Lvzhao looked at each other, covered their lips and smiled lightly: "Yes, my lord looks handsome and handsome every day, and the tree faces the wind!"

There was the sound of the door opening from behind, Xiao Yu passed them and looked back, and saw Wenfeng and Fuyue coming out first, followed by Junrong in a bright yellow dragon robe walking out slowly.

Xu Shiren is in good spirits on happy occasions, Jun Rong looks good today, when he looked at Xiao Yu with a smile, the crown on his head shook slightly, his voice was like the rising sun in the sky, with newborn vivacity: "Teacher, Do I look good this way?"

Xiao Yu took a few glances, then stepped forward and stretched out his hand for comparison: "Well, Your Majesty seems to have grown taller."

Jun Rong's eyes lit up: "Really?"

Xiao Yu nodded seriously: "This time it's true."

She looked at Jun Rong's brand new dragon robe, "It's very beautiful."

Fu Yue laughed and said, "Your Majesty has been looking at the mirror for a long time just now, I'm afraid there is something disobedient."

Jun Rong turned her head and glared at her, Fu Yue covered her mouth with a smile.

Xiao Yu's mood brightened, "Today is His Majesty's birthday. Everyone in Xianrong Palace will be rewarded with moon silver for two months, and those in other palaces will be rewarded for one month."

Wenfeng and Fuyue looked at each other, and knelt down happily: "Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live——"

They took the lead, and the other palace people knelt down immediately.

Jun Rong looked at them, raised his hand and said, "Get flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Let's go to the West Palace to greet the Empress Dowager, have a meal in the West Palace at noon, and have a banquet in the evening."

"Okay, listen to you."

"Let's go then."

Xiao Yu stretched out his hand and said, "Your Majesty, please—"

Jun Rong glanced at him and walked ahead.

After the two went to the West Palace, they saw the concubines sitting in a room. Today is Jun Rong's birthday. Whether they are familiar with each other or not, they all prepared birthday gifts for Jun Rong. Jun Rong accepted them one by one with a smile. , sent to Xianrong Palace.

He sat with Xiao Yu and talked with them for a while, and he probably understood their purpose, then said: "The princes have already entered the capital, and they will come later to pay their respects to the concubines, don't be impatient. "

The concubines felt relieved when they heard the words, and the smiles on their faces were more sincere.

Xiao Yu listened to them with a smile, but what he thought about was today's deployment. The Imperial Forest Army came back after patrolling the streets to guard the palace, and the city guards patrolled the streets and alleys all day long. It seemed that there were no omissions.

The point is still at the dinner party, I hope those envoys will not make trouble.

After sitting for a while, she still felt uneasy, so she hurriedly bid farewell, took Tsing Yi and Zhang Lao for a walk in the imperial dining room, and asked Xuan Yiwei and the Xun Jisi to guard the imperial dining room so as not to be tampered with. .

Then I went to see the Xiefang Palace where the banquet was held tonight, looked inside and out to make sure there were no mistakes, and then returned to Xianrong Palace.

"Han Yi, you will stay by His Majesty's side tonight, always be vigilant, and never let irrelevant people get close to His Majesty."

"Yes." Han Yi nodded.

"Tonight is a matter of great importance. The Xun Ji and Xuan Yiwei must not relax for a moment. If any abnormality is found, please notify me immediately."

"My subordinate understands."

Xiao Yu let out a long breath, "Is there any movement at the posthouse?"

Han Yi said in a deep voice: "There is no abnormality for the time being, people from Yun Country, Feng Country and Wen Zhu Country all stayed in the post house and did not go out."

Xiao Yu nodded thoughtfully: "Well, by the way, remember to search your body when you enter the palace, and you are not allowed to bring any knives into the palace."

"Yes."

"Master, do you have any other orders?" Han Yi looked at Xiao Yu, saw her frowning and pondering, and thought about it, as if there was nothing to pay attention to.

Sure enough, Xiao Yu pondered for a long while and said: "I haven't thought of anything else for the time being, so I will give these orders first. Now everything is ready, and I will wait until it gets dark."

As soon as the words were finished, Ning Zhao came in, and Xiao Yu saw that her expression was slightly gloomy, so she couldn't help asking: "What's wrong?"

Ning Zhao said softly: "My lord, Hua Ye brought Lin He here, saying that he wants to leave the palace."

"Oh? Are you leaving the palace?"

Xiao Yu frowned: "What are you doing out of the palace at this time? Let them in."

"Yes."

Ning Zhao went out and invited people in. Hua Ye, who was dressed in a light blue brocade robe, had just entered the room when his eyes fell on Xiao Yu impartially.
