On the day of the Lantern Festival, the capital is really very lively, almost all the people in the city have poured into the streets to enjoy the lanterns, and there are also rich businessmen from other places who have heard the news in the vicinity of the capital and rushed over. ,:。
This made the Lantern Festival even more overcrowded, but the courtiers in the court were the support of the people of Emperor Chu and His Royal Highness the King of Yue, and enjoyed with the people.
In addition to the capital Mansion Yin expressed concern about public security, the civil and military courtiers have special expectations for the Lantern Festival, in the rest of the capital of the dynasty, the Mansion Yin is a parent official who is full of promises, but the Beijing Mansion Yin is angry, after all, in the capital where high-ranking officials are everywhere, there is no room for him to intervene.
He could only send out all the soap officials of the government office, and at the same time actively contact the officials of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to prevent anyone from making trouble during the Lantern Festival again.
Even Emperor Chu didn't fully grasp the people who mobilized the soldiers and horses of the Five Cities, and it was even more impossible for the Yin of the Capital Mansion to take the soldiers who obviously didn't listen to his warnings.
Gu Mingnuan stayed in the Hou Mansion, Xiao Ben was not afraid of chaos at the Lantern Festival, the generals under his command were all lively, and naturally looked forward to the Lantern Festival as big as possible.
When night falls, lanterns hang on the streets, and there are large families at the front door of the lamp mountain, all kinds of lamp mountains seem to be able to illuminate this night sky.
After Emperor Chu led the harem concubines to climb the Fengyang Tower in the company of King Yue and King Qin, the people knelt on the mountain and shouted long live, firecrackers were set off, and the gorgeous fireworks made the night sky particularly beautiful.
The fireworks in the sky and the lantern festival on the ground echo each other, it is really a scene of peace and prosperity.
Emperor Chu held on to the fence and looked at the people who bowed, he was full of spirit, and the wrinkles on his sideburns had faded a lot.
How could he give up the honorable throne to others This glory can only be enjoyed on the throne, Emperor Chu looked at Xiao Yang not far away, "King Yan, come to me." ” Xiao Yang got up and walked to Emperor Chu's side, and heard Emperor Chu's confident and heroic warning, "You see, the people still support me, the people's hearts are still in my hands, and with the support of the people, any ambition of rebellious ministers and thieves will not succeed." ” "Your Majesty is wise."
Xiao Yang said without being salty or light, "The people's hearts are indeed available, but Your Majesty has just returned to the capital, and many people are seeing the holy face for the first time." ” Emperor Chu's face stiffened, he left the people and ran all the way to Jinling.
"It's King Yan, it's Master Xiao."
"Swallow King Chitose Chitose Chitose."
"His Royal Highness King Yan" "It's General Xiao Yang, General Xiao who drove out the barbarians, His Royal Highness King Yan who made the barbarians dare not cry, the pillar of the country, and the patron saint of the capital."
The people downstairs cheered, most of them were rich families who had lived in the capital for a long time, they had experienced the capital being besieged by barbarians, and now Taiping, although they have also seen Xiao Yang, but looking at the lively Taiping scene in front of them, they understand who brought everything Originally, Xiao Yue should also be praised, but he didn't come today, so all the glory of the Xiao family and the people's gratitude to the Xiao family all fell on Xiao Yang alone.
There were people in front of them who instigated, and the people in the distance did not know the original, and they also shouted His Royal Highness King Yan or the patron saint of the dynasty in the spirit of joining in the fun.
Emperor Chu's face was gloomy, his eyes flashed with coldness, but King Yue looked at Xiao Yang, who was light and breezy, and slowly hooked the corners of his mouth.
"Her Royal Highness."
Gu Mingnuan put down the scroll in her hand, in fact, she even took the book down, so she didn't put her mind on the scroll, not that she regretted wanting to join in the fun, it was all a booklet, "What's the matter?"
"Gu Mingxuan is anxious to see you, it is a matter of the safety of King Pingjun, if you don't see her, King Pingjun is afraid that he will die from the attack of the assassin."
Gu Mingnuan sat up straight and ordered, "Let her come in, come in immediately" "Sixth sister, hurry up and prepare, I can only stay for a while."
Gu Mingxuan didn't even take off the hood on his head, and said anxiously: "I just heard that the world's first-class assassin is going to assassinate your father, I don't know where that person is ambushing, in short, the king of Pingjun is very dangerous, I am afraid that others will come to report, you don't believe it, so I took advantage of the tea to come over in person." ” Gu Mingnuan opened his mouth to ask clearly, Gu Mingxuan smiled apologetically, "I have to go, it's bad if I am found by King Yue's people." ” "It was the Yue King who sent an assassin to assassinate him" "I only heard that man never missed, and many people who were better than him in martial arts died under his arrows."
Gu Mingxuan's footsteps paused slightly, half of his face was buried in the big fashion of the coat, and he said in a low voice: "You hurry up and make a decision, I took the risk to report this time, it is already a thousand difficulties, if you believe it, you will protect your father, if you don't believe it, don't come with anyone." ” Finished, she walked away quickly.
Feng Zhaodi asked in a low voice, "Do you need me to stop her?"
Gu Mingnuan shook her head, although she wanted to know the details, but preventing Gu Mingxuan from leaving would kill her, but she had to say, "She shouldn't deceive me, if the mastermind is King Yue, is it possible that she really knows about it?"
"You are King Yue, you deliberately leaked the news, and I expected that she would come to inform you of the news."
Feng Zhaodi suddenly realized, her voice was sharp, "The target of King Feiyue is not King Pingjun, but you" "No matter who he's targeting, he can't be careless."
Gu Mingnuan still has the protection of the dead left by Xiao Yang, as long as King Yue does not mobilize an army of thousands of people to besiege her, she will be safe.
But although there are guards in front of my father, I am afraid that I have not received any news about the assassin at this time, although my father's martial arts are good, but the assassin sent by King Yue is definitely not an ordinary person.
"You go, go and see where my father is, and inform him of his heart."
Gu Yan was vigilant, and the assassin was not so easy to succeed, Gu Mingnuan quickly ordered, "By the way, send a message to the prince, someone intends to assassinate the Lantern Festival."
"You don't have to target my father with the prince."
Gu Mingnuan was really worried about what to do if Xiao Yang distracted his father and King Yue suddenly attacked him Xiao Yang is good at kung fu, but at a time of crisis, Gu Mingnuan would rather Xiao Yang be surrounded by many guards, and he would not need to be personally involved in danger and completely exposed to the eyes of the assassins.
Feng Zhaodi headed his head and took the order.
Gu Mingnuan was restless, knowing that he couldn't be in a hurry, but his brain just couldn't settle down, and at this time, so many people on the street were crowded together, and there was no way to immediately transfer troops.
"Lantern Festival is a great time for assassins" Suddenly, there was a loud bang outside, as if the mountains were shaking, Gu Mingnuan covered his chest, "What's wrong?"
Naturally, someone went to inquire about the news, and someone replied in half an hour, "It is a firecracker, which is dedicated to the emperor by His Royal Highness the King of Yue, and the name of the firecracker is the dragon flying phoenix dance." ” Gu Mingnuan couldn't sit still anymore, put on a big fashion, stood in the courtyard of the Hou Mansion, and looked at the night sky, "Where are the firecrackers?"
"Right in front of the front door" "Princess, the king of Pingjun is in front of the front door, and he has fought with a few people from other countries."
Gu Mingnuan's face changed, "Don't go to the carriage, I'll go in person":
