Chapter 161
Just at night, the capital city has been lit up with thousands of lights.
On the bustling and noisy street, crowds of people are surging, shoulder to shoulder, and colorful lanterns are hung along the street, forming two long queues.
Appreciating lanterns, guessing flower riddles, and setting off lotus lanterns are the main streams of the Lantern Festival. In addition, there are various occasional games such as juggling and poetry, which are all favorite activities of the talented and beautiful in Beijing.
Along the entire street, cheers, exclamations, and applause erupted continuously, mixed with the beaming yells of vendors, outlining a prosperous scene in the capital.
The bell rang for a long time, and the emperor, together with the empress, four concubines, princes and daughters, and cabinet ministers boarded the observation tower, the tallest tower in the center of the city.
All the people kowtowed and shouted long live.
Standing on the viewing platform with his hands behind his back, the emperor looked down on his people and his country from a high position, taking a panoramic view of the hustle and bustle. A smile appeared on Shen Ning's face. Xuanguo is rich and the people are strong, I am very relieved. On this Lantern Festival, the king and the people have fun together, and pray for good weather and good weather in the coming year, and the country is prosperous and the people are safe!"
"Your Majesty is blessed, the weather in Xixuan is smooth, the country is peaceful and the people are safe!" Shouts resounded throughout the imperial city.
The scene of the king and the people having fun together brought the bustle of the city to its peak.
At the same time, outside the closed gate of the imperial city, horses' hooves sounded anxiously.
Immediately, the woman in white clothes had a beautiful face, her watery eyes were cold, her slightly chapped cherry lips were pursed, and the blue and black under her eyes revealed fatigue, but she pushed the speed of the horse under her crotch to the extreme.
The city guards on the city wall only saw a black shadow approaching from far and near, approaching quickly, and unconsciously became alert.
Today's Lantern Festival, because the emperor visited the viewing tower in person, the whole city was under martial law, and the city gates were closed early, in order to ensure that the defense of the imperial city was flawless.
It was a matter of the emperor's safety, and any mistake would be a major event of ransacking the family and exterminating the family.
"Woo~" The galloping horse stopped suddenly in front of the city gate, and the woman pulled the reins tightly, causing the horse's front hooves to be raised high and neighing.
"The gate of the city has been closed, the whole city is under martial law and no one is allowed to pass through, leave quickly!" From the top of the city, came the city guard's stern voice.
The woman raised her head, a beautiful face was exposed in the hazy yellow light, even if it was dusty, it couldn't cover up the heart-wrenching magnificence. "Jun Xian of the National Teacher's Mansion, come back from the patrol, and open the city gate!" Frowning, he flashed his token, and Jun Xian's voice became a little cold.
In order to rush back to the capital as quickly as possible, she worked without sleep for the past seven days and exhausted three thousand-mile horses. Unexpectedly, she would be able to arrive soon, but the city was under martial law and the city gates were closed.
"There is an order from above. No matter who wants to pass today, you are not allowed to open the city gate! Please forgive me, the national teacher, and enter the city tomorrow!" After seeing the token and confirming the identity of the woman, the city guard's tone was not so tough, but Still refused to open the door.
What kind of person is the national teacher? Although they are only small city guards, they are very clear. The city they were stationed at the beginning was hung in their belly pockets, which was the work of the national teacher.
Coupled with the large and small news about the national teacher that came out later, they were more in awe of the legendary national teacher than ordinary people.
But today you can't help but feel guilty.To annoy the national teacher, at most he would be beaten to paralysis, but if he annoyed the emperor, it would not be just a matter of losing his head.
Outside the city gate, Jun Xian's patience has reached its limit, "I said, open the city gate!"
"Sorry, the national teacher, the humble ranks cannot be released!"
The corners of Jun Xian's lips are slightly cold, and he no longer pushes each other.
Just when the city guards breathed a sigh of relief and thought the matter was settled, they saw that the woman patted the horse's back lightly with her bare hands, using her whole body to soar into the air, like a flying fairy from the sky, she easily jumped up the city wall, and then At the moment when they were caught off guard, they disappeared like lightning!
This is a three-foot-high city wall!The national teacher came up as soon as he said it!Is that human being!
When they came back to their senses and wanted to yell loudly to stop them, there was no sign of the woman under the night sky.
Everyone's calves trembled.
It’s over.
The entry of the national teacher into the city is equivalent to showing that these city guards are dereliction of duty and incompetent.
It's fine if the emperor doesn't pursue it, but once they do, their punishment will never go away.
"I heard that the emperor has always favored the national teacher. Since the national teacher forcibly entered the city, the emperor should not... blame us?" Someone tremblingly said.
"We didn't open the city gate. The national teacher came in over the wall. If you want to blame it, you can only blame the national teacher for being too skilled." Someone desperately tried to find a reason.
"That's right, the national teacher is a descendant of Penglai in the East China Sea. He can fly into the sky and escape from the earth. We can't stop him!"
The leader of the city guard gave these people a hard look, "Report this matter immediately, no matter how we deal with it, we must not lose the reputation of not reporting what we know!"
Jun Xian was completely unaware of what was happening on the top of the city, a white shadow, like light smoke and mist, quickly passed over the capital.
Occasionally, someone raised his head, and in a glimpse, he could only see a phantom, fleeting, making people think it was his own dazzle.
But Jun Xian originally went straight to the palace, and Li'er was kept in the palace. Since she came back, she didn't want to delay for a moment.
But he inadvertently found the bright yellow figure on the observation tower, his figure paused slightly, and then a cold light appeared in his eyes, and he turned and flew towards that side.
In the observation building, the wine has passed three rounds.
The emperor's pent-up mood for the past few days has eased a little. As an emperor, it is the most gratifying thing to see his country flourishing.
So does he.
So there were concubines and elders toasting during the banquet, and the emperor did not refuse.
"The courtiers and concubines are also happy to see the emperor happy." The queen poured another glass of wine for the emperor, and whispered softly, "But the people should be the happiest. On weekdays, they don't have the opportunity to look up at the sky. Gather together If you can see the Son of Heaven today, you will be blessed in the coming year."
"I really hope that my people will have continuous blessings and prosperity, so that the country will be more stable."
"My child traveled to Dingzhou before, and along the way I often heard the people say that the father is a wise emperor, and Xixuan has the father in power, which is the greatest blessing for the people." Si Chenghuan sat beside the queen, smiling gently, with an extraordinary demeanor .
The emperor laughed loudly, and really felt happy, "Then in order not to disappoint the people, I must be a good emperor."
The elders in the surrounding pavilions scrambled to agree with each other, and the scene upstairs was incomparable for a while.
"Good emperor, you should keep your word!" The hoarse, cold voice suddenly pierced through the eardrums of everyone, entrapped in the cold air, and quenched the enthusiasm of everyone upstairs.
The white clothes fluttered, and the beautiful woman seemed to tear a hole in the night, she came suddenly, and landed gracefully and slowly on the viewing platform of the observation building.
The guards guarding the viewing tower faced a formidable enemy, and immediately faced each other with swords.
Besides, other people have different expressions and thoughts.
Si Chenghuan sat on the table, his eyes were dark and shiny, from the moment the woman appeared, his eyes were glued to her.
And the queen slowly withdrew her persistent hand, and squeezed the silk handkerchief tightly.
