Chapter 47 Tricks
The chariot entered the Suzaku Gate, and the mountains outside the palace shouted long live.The magpies perched on the tower above the gate were startled, and flew away in all directions.

The morning light fell over the palace wall, bright and warm.

Seeing Jun stepping out of the chariot, he was dressed in a black twelfth chapter uniform, and his crown was slightly shaking in the morning light.His figure was taller than usual, with a pair of dark eyes that were deep and bright.Solemn, quiet and majestic, he is vaguely already a very rich young emperor.

Yu Ci looked up at him from under the chariot, and the palace people behind him also knelt down on the ground.In the vast snow-white field, she was the only one standing quietly in front of him to welcome him back.Zhai Yi Xiapei, black hair and snow skin, dignified and quiet beauty.

Concubine bowed her knees and saluted, seeing Jun stepped forward to hold her hand, with joyful eyes, she said with a smile, "I knew that Minmin must be the first thing I saw when I came back."

Yu Ci smiled and nodded.

Before the guards of honor who followed on horseback entered the palace gate, Yuan Lu got off his horse and stood behind the chariot.

Yu Ci vaguely felt that there was a piercing gaze over there, and when she turned around, she subconsciously took a look.

That person was tall and handsome, and his outline was slightly deeper than that of the Central Plains man, but there was not much difference.It's just that his skin is whiter than snow, his eyes are deep and deep, and he looks at her unscrupulously, just like a sinister white eagle.

Yu Ci was startled inwardly, hostility and disgust welled up spontaneously.

Returning from offering sacrifices to the heavens, the court has a three-day winter holiday as usual.

The Royal Street outside Donghuamen is also open to civilians.Vendors and theater troupes who received deeds set up booths and a stage in the center, and the sound of hawking, music and dancing, and cheers was endless every day.The women came out of the boudoir's house, dressed in gorgeous clothes, competing for bright colors; tourists came and went, BMW carved cars, and the road was full of fragrance, just like a temple fair at the end of the year.

Seeing Jun in these three days is also rare.When he came back from the southern suburbs, he stayed in the Cici Palace and told her what he had seen and heard on the way back from offering sacrifices to heaven.

He spoke happily, his eyes flickering, and Miu Ci peeled peanuts and melon seeds for him, and listened quietly from the side with a smile.

In fact, even if the common people were allowed to watch the ceremony, he still had to clear the streets all the way.The people on both sides knelt on the ground and were silent, so it must not make him happy.I'm afraid that most of the funny things he said were what he yearned for, and he made up things to make my concubine happy.

However, the bustling, lively and peaceful times he had seen and heard along the way didn't hold much water.After all, Yu Ci also traveled with the group to the east, west, north, and south, and was deeply touched by the prosperity and happiness of this country in this era.

Seeing that Jun was tired of talking, when the sun was setting to the west, he finally fell asleep on Yuci's lap.

Yu Ci pulled the quilt to cover him.

The sunlight falling into the Queen's Pavilion is not as bright and dazzling as in the snow, but rather soft and soft.

Jianjun's sleeping appearance is as cute as ever.He seems to have reached the age of growth, his apple-like round face has become a little thinner, but it still looks rosy and delicious.When the face is turned sideways, the eyelashes are especially black and long, and the light hangs down like a curtain.The more Yu Ci looked at her, the more she felt that she was so unbelievable, she couldn't help stretching out her hand to tease her, but Jian Jun grabbed her and bit her.

Yu Ci couldn't help laughing and said, "Puppy."

Jian Jun murmured back in his dream: "Little pig..."

After nightfall, the hustle and bustle outside the palace did not stop, but because of the lifting of the curfew, it became more and more brightly lit and bustling.Looking from a height, the lights of Wanjia look like stars, and the Royal Street looks like a galaxy.

The fire blowing performances of the barbarians on the street attracted more spectators, and the ringing of the copper gongs where money was sprinkled was heard endlessly.

It's a rare holiday, and the Kunning Palace has a table full of fish and cooked dumplings.

Jian Jun was awakened by the sound of firecrackers and the strong smell of food, rubbed his eyes and pushed the door out.

Seeing that Yu Ci was tasting the food, he muttered dissatisfiedly: "The queen won't wait for me."

Yu Ci smiled and said, "I'm waiting for you." She stepped forward to help him wash his hands and face, and pulled him into the table.

In front of Kunning Palace, two large baskets of smoked cages were burned, and the side door was opened, so that the wind would blow in to make it warm.From where Jianjun sits, one can see the beautiful scenery in the distance, but it is far away and untouchable.

Jianjun watched quietly for a while, until Yuci stuffed a dumpling into his mouth, then looked back at Yuci, chewed enviously and said, "It's good that Minmin and I are an ordinary couple. gone."

Yu Ci smiled and said, "You can't talk nonsense about this."

Immortals only fell into the sky once, but the emperor got off the Dragon Throne, but there was almost only a dead end left.

Jian Jun nodded and said, "I'm just thinking about it. If I wasn't the emperor, I wouldn't be able to marry Minmin."

His eyes dimmed for a moment, but soon he cheered up again, and said with a smile: "I want to eat fish..."

Yu Ci didn't answer his words, but just fed him a piece of silver carp meat, saying: "Happy with the people, the officials can't say anything."

Jian Jun said vaguely: "What?"

Xi Ci smiled and said, "Since it's a holiday, why don't you go out for a walk?"

It's really not difficult to leave the palace, but no one dares to be responsible for Jianjun's safety.

What's more, it is the instinct of everyone except the cabinet ministers to please the emperor, but there are no opportunities on weekdays.So when Yuci was standing in front of the tank, Liang Shidao, the captain of the imperial guards' school guard, was taken aback for a moment, then quickly took orders and arranged for the guards.

Yu Ci followed him, squeezed among the crowd, running from stall to stall, eating wontons, meat pies, donkey meat, and plum blossom buns all the way, holding candy figurines and candied haws in her hands.

Miu Chi saw him rushing forward to watch the juggling.He hurriedly stuffed things into his arms and grabbed his hand.

Jian Jun turned his head and smiled at him, the lights reflected in his eyes, bright and moving.Yu Ci was stunned for a moment.

I don't know what unique skills the prostitute showed, there was a loud applause, and the crowd suddenly surged like a tide, and Yu Ci and Jian Jun were coerced and squeezed to the front.

Yu Ci turned her head and waved her hands, only to see a crowd of people surrounded by brocade clothes, and the four or five guards were gradually pushed further away.

Jian Jun turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

Yu Ci said, "It's nothing."

She was about to pull Jianjun back, when she saw a pair of hands stretched out in front of her eyes, and the barbarian opposite him spoke not fluent Central Plains dialect, and said: "Miss, can you do us a favor? "

Cheers came from the crowd again, and Yu Ci looked up with them, and saw a young barbarian playing with a throwing knife in his hand, and raised his head to her, smiling brightly like the sun, "You are so beautiful, my throwing knife will surely I can't bear to hurt you."

Only then did Jian Jun understand what was going on, and said angrily: "Bold!" His voice was lost in the cheers of the crowd.

The barbarian on the opposite side of Yu Ci beat his waist drum and played a trick in front of Yu Ci. Finally, he threw the drumstick into the air, and with his hands forward and backward, he bowed to Yu Ci and said, "Please. "

Yu Ci looked at the boy sitting on the hood playing with throwing knives, but didn't make a sound.

When Hu Ren straightened up, the drumstick fell into his hand.He then continued to beat while making gestures to the crowd around him. In an instant, countless voices chased him and shouted "Up! Up! Up!", deafening.They were already drunk in this carnival.

Jian Jun struggled to move forward, but was held down by Yu Ci - Yu Ci had already seen the situation clearly, if he didn't follow his orders today, the onlookers might not let them squeeze out, so he leaned over to see Jun In Jun's ear, he said: "Don't be afraid, performing arts on the street, this is a common trick, and there can be no mistakes."

Yu Ci pulled Jian Jun to come in front of the boy, and the surrounding cheers were overwhelming.

Yu Ci was about to speak, but Jian Jun pulled her behind him to block it: "I'll replace her."

The juvenile cat leaned over from above, and through the wide collar, one could vaguely see the intricate tattoos on the shoulders.Yu Ci felt slightly familiar, but when she remembered it, she couldn't help but froze for a moment.

The young man's blue eyes were bright and clear, and he narrowed his eyes gently: "You are not a beauty, my guests will not like to see it."

Seeing Jun was ashamed for a moment, he waved his fist at him, Yu Ci hurriedly grabbed him from behind, and whispered in his ear: "Look at his fingers, his throwing knife must be as handy as His Majesty's pen. Let me try , I thought it would be fun."

When the young man stepped forward to tie Yu Ci's hands to the iron ring, he asked reassuringly, "Are you afraid?"

Yu Ci avoided answering, and said, "I've seen you."

He laughed crisply and said, "Many girls have said they have met me, but you are prettier than them all."

——From the fluency of these words, Yu Ci guessed that he had said this to many girls.

She knew that such people could not easily get a single sentence out of their mouths, so she didn't ask any more questions.

Jian Jun sat quietly on the shaft of the car, silently suppressing his anger, waiting for the guards to squeeze through the crowd.

Yu Ci held a plum blossom candlestick in both hands and on her head.Before the tricksters who assisted in the performance lit the candles, the boy smiled and took out a green gauze handkerchief and asked, "Do you want to cover your eyes?"

Yu Ci glanced at him, and replied bluntly, "No need."

He groaned and said with a smile: "Since you don't use it, then I will use it myself. Be careful—don't move any more."

After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and covered his eyes with the green gauze, and Yu Ci couldn't help but wonder if it's too late for me to say it now...

He couldn't see clearly with his eyes blindfolded, and he missed the first throwing knife thrown by his assistant.

The blade landed on the bluestone road, making a slight "clang".

That barely audible sound was like a gavel, and immediately silenced the surrounding spectators in horror.

Then before someone rushed up to stop him, he received the three throwing knives in his hand and flew out with the sound of the wind.

The flying knife cut off the white candle straight, and brought the candle flame to the plum blossom circle behind.All of a sudden, the fire was full of flames, and the crowd collectively burst out with an exclamation of "Oh".

Jian Jun tugged on his sleeves tightly, his fingers were as cold as ice.

Liang Shidao had already squeezed in with people, and Yuan Lu and Yougui followed for some reason.When they saw that the humanoid target in the center was Yu Ci, they froze at the same time.

Yuan Lu rushed forward, Jian Jun grabbed him.There was almost no breath in the voice, "Don't move, don't startle him..."

It turned out that the boy surprised them first.

The Hu people set up a wooden plank behind Yu Ci, and the young man flew out back and forth like a celestial girl scattering flowers in his hands.When the ping-ping-pong-pong sound of flying knives piercing the wooden planks stopped, the crowd fell silent.

Yu Ci tore off the thin kerchief in her hand, and took a step forward a little stiffly, only to feel that her head was covered with sweat and her legs were almost limp.

She smiled stiffly, tried to remain calm, and bowed to the crowd. In an instant, thunderous cheers erupted from all around, and the copper coins scattered down, covering the ground in an instant.

——The wooden board behind her was filled with throwing knives neatly and densely, and only a slender figure with arms raised was exposed in the center.

The boy tore off the green veil from his eyes, and gave a thumbs up to Miu Ci.Yu Ci rolled her eyes back at him, and walked towards Jian Jun somewhat staggeringly.

When she stretched out her hand, Jian Jun looked away in embarrassment, and went around her.

Yu Ci knew that she had really made him angry this time, so she couldn't help feeling a little helpless.

Jian Jun pulled out a throwing knife from the wooden board, then walked up to the boy, and said, "It's my turn."

The boy was a little puzzled: "What?"

Jian Jun said coldly: "You forced my woman to be a target once. Now, I will let you stand where she was just now!"

The barbarian with the drum tied around his waist rolled up his sleeves, showing the knotted muscles on his arms, and said with a smile: "This nobleman, kindness makes money."

The young man behind him pulled him helplessly, and pointed to Liang Shidao and others standing behind Jianjun.The burly barbarian glanced at him, and his tone suddenly softened, "He has never missed a shot before, so we dare to invite guests to perform. Can you guarantee that you will not miss it, too?"

A cold smile curled up on Jian Jun's lips, and he said without hesitation, "I promise."

The surrounding crowd booed, and many people said: "They didn't force you, why bother?"

Those who followed Jianjun were afraid of causing death, so they looked at Yuci with pleading eyes.

But Yugui came out at this time, his tone full of sarcasm: "We don't force him either. If you let your wife and children come up, let him be a target and throw a round of throwing knives, how about we let him go? "

The crowd fell silent for a moment.Everyone took a step back.

Yougui smiled and said: "In that case, please don't meddle in other people's business."

That young man travels all over the world, he knows how to look at people, and knows that at this moment he can only ask for mercy.At this moment, he had already flashed to her side while taking advantage of the chaos, and said with a helpless smile: "Help."

Yu Ci smiled lowly, "You'll be just like me, you'll be fine."

Hearing the words, the young man didn't care whether it was true or not, he walked out like a cat, crawled back in front of Jianjun, and said with a smile, "Okay. Since I dare to use people as targets, I naturally dare to use others as targets."

He is a throwing knife himself, so he naturally knows how to avoid it.Yu Ci has already given a guarantee, if he avoids at that time, Jian Jun still refuses to let him go, she will probably speak up - even if she doesn't, the people in the street will be very easy to incite.So I am not afraid.

He laughed and stood in front of the wooden board, and tied his hands with a thin scarf. The Hu people around had already started beating drums to attract customers.He was about to tell Jian Jun that it was time to start, but Jian Jun had already raised the throwing knife and stepped forward, and before he could react, he had already stabbed it sharply.

The thin blade sank into the wooden board by its roots, making a clank.The severed hair seemed to fall on his shoulders after a long time.

The boy looked around with a pair of blue cat eyes, only felt that the handle of the knife was rough and rough against his temples.

Jian Jun looked at him indifferently for a while, then turned and left.

The young man held on, walked away from the wooden board, wiped his temples, but did not see any blood, then smiled and let out a long sigh of relief.

Who told him that this little emperor of the Central Plains is weak and incompetent and easy to bully?
The crowd was silent, and when Jian Jun walked past, they all moved away from each other.

The blue-eyed boy looked at the backs of the group of them, and suddenly thought of playing a prank.

He waved his hands and shouted loudly: "Beauty!"

Jian Jun and Yuan Lu turned their heads with staring eyes at the same time, seeing them stop, Yu Ci looked at Jian Jun in a little confusion.

It was only then that Yu Ci knew that he was calling herself—it really was the temperament that feared the world would not be chaotic.She looked back helplessly, seeing that Jun ignored her before, but now he pulled her wrist angrily and wanted to drag her away.The young man raised his hand and said with a smile: "I'll be performing here for three days during the Cold Relief Festival, so come and see me anytime!"
