Now it was time to leave.
Ku He calmly looked at the carriage, at the overly handsome face beneath the hair, at the pair of clear and gentle eyes like autumn water, and said slowly:
"Mr. Li, Da Qi is now entrusted to you."
Li An nodded and stepped onto the carriage. At this moment, he no longer had any attachment to this green mountain that people all over the world yearn for. He looked at Ku He and was speechless for a long time. Ku He also looked at Li An, feeling the changes in him from when he came here, and couldn't help but sighing.
In such a short period of time, he was able to comprehend the Tianyi Dao mental method.
Is he really a genius?
Or are all those with Heavenly Veins who walk out of the temple like this?
It seems so ridiculous that I asked Haitang to declare to the public that I am a person with a heavenly vein!
"Don't worry!"
Ku He bowed his head slightly to express his gratitude. All of Ku He's disciples at the foot of the mountain subconsciously bowed to the young master. According to the master, Mr. Li An's Tianyi Dao cultivation has surpassed his own, and he is on the right path.
The convoy slowly moved away, and the news that Li Ang had arrived in Qingshan was spread by Ku He.
One version is just as Ang Lee said, with a saint on the scene, the changing winds and clouds, and the rosy clouds stretching for thousands of miles, it is truly dazzling!
Ku He once said that he was far inferior to the sage Li Ang!
All of this makes the carriage seem to be carrying a destiny.
"Destiny is something that is always difficult to guess. We can act on behalf of destiny, but we cannot expect to punish on behalf of heaven."
Li An gave a bitter smile and felt compassion for Ku He, Si Gu Jian and Emperor Qing.
I am curious about Ye Liuyun and Ye Luxuan. After all, the biggest difference between them and me is that they rely on their own understanding to break the destiny, while I rely on the system. In the end, I am still not as good as them.
When the carriage returned to the outskirts of Shangjing City, the city gate was already filled with men, women, young and old, and guarded by the Imperial Guards. Zhan Doudou and the Queen Mother had also been waiting here for a long time.
Li An put on a full performance, sitting upright in the car, and circulated the Tianxin Gong true qi, which was a fusion of the Tianyi Dao mental method and the domineering true qi, to the extreme.
Invisible pressure was spreading towards the crowd near the city gate!
The 'spiritual energy' in the sky was changing constantly, and gradually a strong wind blew, and even the snow clouds hanging above the sky gradually dispersed. The sun shone down, as if not wanting the darkness to darken the way forward for this newly promoted 'saint', and filled the area at the city gate with golden light.
Chapter 165 The Saint’s First Date.
"This is a miracle!"
"Oh my god! A saint has appeared in my Great Qi. This is a sign of rise!"
"That's right. Let's see if those southern barbarians dare to bully us again."
"Yes, now that we have Mr. Li, we don't have to be afraid of anything anymore!"
"Why call him Mr. Li? Call him Saint!"
The people were so excited that their eyes welled up with tears.
This scene is similar to the story of Laozi in ancient China going west through Hangu Pass!
"Mr. Li, you're back!"
Seeing such public sentiment, the Queen Mother and the Emperor also came down from the imperial carriage to welcome Li Ang's return.
"It is Li An's fault that he asked the Queen Mother and His Majesty to go out of the city to welcome him."
Li An got off the carriage, his body emitting golden light in the sunlight, which made people who came close to him smell the scent as if their hearts were shocked. I don't know if it was the spiritual throbbing brought by the vision.
Zhan Doudou did not respond, but his eyes were full of excitement.
She had received a letter from Master Ku He many days ago, and realized that she might be Li An's person in this life! In addition to making Zhan Doudou excited, the other information in the letter also made her more grateful to Li An.
In this life, I also have the opportunity to interact with the world with my true self.
Just being the first female emperor in the world will make her name go down in the history of all countries.
"It would be great if you could come back, sir. The New Year is coming soon. Wouldn't it be a pity if we missed it?"
Zhan Doudou said, "We should not block the city anymore. Please come into the city, sir."
"Yes, yes!"
The Queen Mother was still graceful and elegant. After she gave the order, the Imperial Guards gradually set out to escort everyone into the city.
······
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival, also known as the Shangyuan Festival or the Lantern Festival. The ancients called "night" "xiao", and the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the first full moon night of the year. The formation of the Lantern Festival took a long time, and it originated from the ancient folk custom of lighting lanterns to pray for blessings. As for who started it, it is impossible to verify in this world.
The Lantern Festival is the beginning of spring, when everything comes back to life. People who have been dormant for a winter start to go out, making it more lively than the Spring Festival.
Unlike the imperial palace, the streets in the capital were now crowded with people coming and going.
Ang Lee and Zhan Doudou, who was dressed as a woman, did not take a carriage, but just wandered aimlessly on the street. Miss Doudou looked around at the scene on the street from time to time, but Ang Lee's eyes were always on the beauty.
"From the time you came back until today, more than a dozen days and nights have passed without me noticing. The Lantern Festival has arrived so quickly. Tell me, why did time pass so quickly?"
Zhan Doudou asked casually. If it weren’t for Li An’s amazing hearing, he would not have been able to hear what she said.
She looked completely different now than usual.
"Maybe time flies so fast when you're with the person you love!"
It was also the first time that Zhan Doudou left the empress dowager and walked freely on the street in women's clothes. Her eyes were slightly red, as if she was full of curiosity about everything she had seen in the past.
"Can you please stop looking at me?" She looked at Li Ang who was gradually getting closer to her, and her true nature was revealed again.
"Don't even think about ordering anyone today." After saying that, Li An also laughed, looking at the embarrassing state of the person in front of him, the more he talked, the more he wanted to look, until Zhan Doudou became shy.
Fortunately, there were no guards following.
Besides, why do I need guards when I'm with Li Ang?
"By the way, are you hungry? Today is the Lantern Festival, so of course we have to eat Yuanxiao!" As he said that, Zhan Doudou pulled Li An and trotted to a stall, and ordered two bowls of Yuanxiao from the lady selling it.
Listening to Doudou's mention, Li An felt a little uncomfortable. In the past, it was not a big deal. He was still thinking about survival, passively or actively, and had no time to care about anything else. Now that the beauty is by his side, maybe she will be his family in three years. Li An also thought of his parents in another world.
I wonder what my parents are doing at this moment? Are they also staring at the white glutinous rice balls in the bowl, with tears dripping into the bowl from time to time?
In any case, now that their son has someone to accompany him, his parents may have fewer concerns.
"Why, you've eaten everything in the palace, why are you interested in Yuanxiao today?" Putting aside what he was thinking, Li An was not doing anything serious today, and said with a smile: "It just so happens that I am a little greedy for these glutinous rice balls."
At this time, the sky gradually darkened, and many carriages could no longer move. During such a festive occasion, every household in Shangjing City went out to enjoy the lanterns, and the roads gradually became crowded. Not to mention carriages, even pedestrians had to walk together.
The two of them ate Yuanxiao, feeling lucky that they were walking, but also lamenting the narrowness of the streets and the large number of people.
In terms of festive atmosphere, Northern Qi was stronger than its neighboring countries.
Zhan Doudou returned to her old ways and ate two mouthfuls of Yuanxiao before throwing away the bowl and spoon. She changed her usual behavior and hugged Li An's arm and said coquettishly, "It's rare to have you accompany me during such a festive occasion. Let's go to the lantern festival and guess lantern riddles!"
"These are small businesses of the people. Aren't you afraid that I will win all the lanterns for them?" Li An joked with a smile, but at the same time he was nervous inside. It didn't say that one had to be well educated to pick up girls. It would be so embarrassing if he couldn't guess the answer!
"Just blow as hard as you can!" Although Miss Doudou knew Li An's ability, she was still stubborn. She looked at Li An with a sweet smile, bit her red lips lightly, and seemed to have an idea: "How about we have a competition to see who can guess more answers, and the loser will have to agree to a condition that is not excessive to the winner, how about that?"
Looking at Doudou who was full of anticipation, Li An nodded helplessly and agreed.
You forced me to do this, search on your phone and start!
Looking at the remaining Yuanxiao on the table, Li An picked it up and, as if coaxing a little girl, scooped a spoonful and put it to Doudou's mouth: "You have to finish what you ordered. Come on, open your mouth. After you finish, we will guess the lantern riddles!"
"All right!"
Seeing that he couldn't escape, Doudou had no choice but to eat. Although the taste was not as good as the one in the palace, it was Li An who fed him, so he should give him some face!
She ate with a smile on her face.
The lady selling Yuanxiao nearby was so happy that she exclaimed: "You two have such a good relationship. Your husband even feeds you personally!"
Under the smiling eyes of the old lady, Zhan Doudou blushed and pulled Li An away.
A huge, bright moon had risen in the sky, and the entire Shangjing City seemed to be covered with a layer of silver gauze. The city was bustling with traffic, and colorful lights were everywhere. People were coming and going. The young ladies and girls from ordinary families who usually stayed at home were secretly meeting with their lovers. Each of them held a small lantern in their hands, which made the intimate behavior of Li An and his girlfriend seem very normal.
"There are so many people here, I'm holding you because I'm worried that we might get separated, so don't think too much!"
"understand!"
Tightening their hands, the two came to a restaurant where people were guessing lantern riddles. This was a place close to the city. On both sides of the street, there were towering buildings and colorful lanterns hanging high. There were palace lanterns, dragon dance lanterns, dragon and chi lanterns, dice lanterns, round lanterns, gauze lanterns, rabbit lanterns, flower basket lanterns, dragon and phoenix lanterns, and lotus lanterns. They were like hundreds of flowers competing for beauty, each with its own unique posture.
Dazzling!
Zhan Doudou suppressed the excitement in her heart, but her little face turned red.
"Who can sit idle when seeing the moon? Who can not come to see the lanterns?" She pointed at the many beautiful things in front of her and said loudly: "Mr. Li! Let's start now!"
"How dare I disobey your orders?"
Chapter 166 Lantern Festival .
Seeing all kinds of lanterns appear, people who were walking rushed forward, vying to watch and pointing at the lanterns of various shapes, as if they were discussing which one they would take away. In the festive atmosphere, how could people still feel the smell of the previous war?
Maybe this is the heart of Shangjing, too far away from those things.
A wave of people rushed towards this gathering point, but Zhan Doudou was unaware. Not to mention that her attention was not here, normally, there would be guards to block such a situation, but today this job would be done by Li An. He stretched out one arm and protected Zhan Doudou by his side. He did not dare to use his true energy, but the master's physical fitness alone blocked the flow of people behind him.
"Look!" Zhan Doudou exclaimed, and stretched out her jade hand and pointed her index finger high in front of her, with a dazzling light flashing in her eyes.
Li An looked in the direction of the finger, and saw a huge lamp at the highest point of the platform, which indicated that the lantern riddle activity had officially begun.
This is an official lamp.
It is majestic and has a very exquisite shape. It has a majestic and glorious atmosphere that makes people stop and marvel. Judging from the shape, this is a nine-lotus treasure lamp.
At this time, Zhan Doudou looked back at Li An and noticed something strange behind her. She tightened Li An's hand and whispered in his ear, "Don't get pushed away by the crowd."
Li An nodded and said subconsciously: "Of course, we will never separate!"
This made Zhan Doudou very embarrassed.
"Is this the official lamp over here?" Seeing that Zhan Doudou was not quite used to such cheesy love talk, Li An quickly changed the subject.
Zhan Doudou smiled softly, as if she noticed Li An's interruption, and responded: "It's not quite right to call them official lanterns. They are just made by some wealthy families with their own money. You know, the Lantern Festival is actually a lantern competition. The bigger and more beautiful the lanterns are, the higher the wealth and status of the family. Although it is for the people to enjoy together, there is no government in Shangjing."
"You are a commoner today, so don't talk about having fun with the people anymore."
Li An chuckled, but in his heart he couldn't help but despise the nobles of Northern Qi. They had just lost the war with Southern Qing, and these people had money to waste instead of using it on the cutting edge. It really made people think too much. He had been in Qing for two or three years, but every year on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there were not many such things in Kyoto.
Of course, this does not mean that such humanistic culture is bad. Not only is it very good, but it should be strongly encouraged. However, it also depends on the domestic situation.
I grumbled that he was stupid and rich, but I really liked the beautiful lantern.
Zhan Doudou rolled his eyes at Li An and retorted, "I thought our Master Li knew everything from astronomy to geography! How could he mistake this lamp for an official lamp?"
Seeing that the girl in front of him was not convinced, Li An laughed and said, "Oh, the lights in the palace are much more beautiful than these. Let's go back to the palace to appreciate them!"
“No!” Zhan Doudou shouted in a delicate voice, her face and ears flushed pink with anxiety, “You are so hateful, I don’t care, I want this one today, this is not an order!”
Yes, yes, this is not an order, but it is better than an order. Don't say it, I will get it for you even if it costs my life!
Seeing that more and more people were gathering on the eve of the lantern riddle guessing game, Li An didn't want to bother with it anymore, so he just hugged Zhan Doudou in public, and reached out his other hand to touch that cool and tender hand.
Zhan Doudou looked straight ahead, seemingly not noticing Li An's actions. After struggling a little with her hands to no avail, she could only look around nervously, with sweat stains all over her face.
"As you wish!" Li An answered in a low voice, with a hint of pride on his face, but in an instant he became so righteous that no one could tell the flaw.
Boom~Bang!
Boom~Bang!
Countless sparks exploded in the sky, and people looked up. Colorful and brilliant fireworks flew into the sky, illuminating people's faces clearly. The crowd cheered continuously, and the fireworks in the sky bloomed more vigorously.
Even Li An was slightly distracted. In his previous life, many places in the city had long since banned the use of fireworks. Such scenes could only be seen during some major festivals, but more often on TV. It was rare to see them in person.
Suddenly, his defenseless abdomen was hit hard, causing Li An to cough lightly.
It turned out that it was his restless little hands that subconsciously used force when he saw the fireworks, and there was a certain degree of groping. This made Zhan Doudou even more unbearable, blushing, and regardless of whether Li An did it intentionally or not, he treated it as intentional and directly elbowed him!
Even so, she didn't say anything harsh, nor did she refuse.
Ang Lee chuckled, lamenting the fickleness of the beauty in front of him.
After a while, a waiter from the restaurant in front of him came out and shouted loudly, attracting countless people's attention: "Everyone, please come!"
"All the merchants on this street are interested. Let our restaurant act as a matchmaker and jointly display all the lanterns. Today, the lanterns on the first and second floors of the platform are for sale, and the lanterns above need to be guessed. Those who guess correctly can take them away without paying a penny!"
"it is good!"
"I've been eager to try it!"
