Chapter 977: Heaven and Earth Lose Their Color
"Hey, Miss, look, look!!" Chu Chu stood at the top of the tower, holding a delicate binoculars in her hand, and without looking back, she beckoned to the poppy who was also holding a pair of exquisite binoculars, "Look, it seems to be the prince?
This is a wooden tower that is more than 30 meters high, around this wooden tower, there are also dozens of wooden towers of different heights, different shapes, carved statues are also different, they stand unevenly, form a huge Tallinn, just distributed on the side of Shenguang Street and Shenhui Street, as long as you climb to the top of the tower, you can have an unobstructed view of the beautiful scenery on the street below.
Among these towers, some wooden towers hang a long red banner with the words: Xu Ji business name, a hundred years of reputation; some wooden towers are even more sassy, directly floating a huge Kong Ming lantern, this Kong Ming lantern is painted with a bright rose pattern, and a banner is hung under the Kong Ming lantern, which reads: The most beautiful in the world, Rong's rouge.
Originally, this piece of Tallinn was built by the Great Qi Imperial Court in order to fight with the Divine Cult, and the royal family imitated the Divine Cult of Tallinn and also built a royal Tallinn, but due to financial constraints, it has not been repaired for more than ten years.
Seeing that the royal face project was about to become an unfinished project, at this time, the head of the household department was open and threw out a riotous operation: invite major nobles and businessmen to donate enthusiastically, and those with high bids can climb the tower to watch the major ceremonies.
This brain hole was scoffed at by the major families and wealthy families in Shenjing, but ...... But it greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of the merchants, who had money, but lacked social status and social identity, and it was a good opportunity to show their faces, and this piece of Tallinn was also built.
But there are some things that have the first time, and the court has tasted the sweetness, and there will be a second time, and slowly not only merchants, but also those who have money, even the capital of Oiran are qualified to stand here and watch the grand ceremony.
Over time, this place has not only evolved into an occasion for major chambers of commerce to compete for advertising, but also a place for the heads of major Oiran lines to compete for beauty, and the best and tallest wooden towers can be bought, which can also prove the strength of this Oiran head himself!
And Oiran and Xingshou are like the top stars of this era, they must show their heads from time to time to show their presence on important occasions, but they can't show their heads in public, otherwise everyone can see them, then they are worthless, who will spend sky-high prices to fight their tea circles?
Therefore, it is impossible for them to crowd the streets, climb tree trunks, and stand on the roofs of houses to compete for high positions in Tallinn like those ordinary people, which is the most perfect choice.
The telescope in Chu Chu's hand is undoubtedly a fine product produced in the puppet country, and the telescope in the hands of the poppy is even more exquisite, so small that it is only half the size of her palm, and there is also a beautiful gold bracket, she only needs to lift it slightly with her hand, and the bracket will prop up the telescope in front of her eyes, which can not only help her see the situation in the distance, but also look reserved and noble.
Naturally, Yu Meiren also saw the following situation, and she couldn't help but gasp: "It seems that the rumors are true!"
Chu Chu and Yu Meiren invariably put down the binoculars in their hands and glanced at each other, Chu Chu said in a low voice: "The emperor really wants to Zen?"
Yu Meiren is naturally a person who reads poetry and books, and grew up in Shenjing since childhood, so she naturally has a very high political sensitivity, and immediately realized that this is an important political signal released by the emperor: Zhao Bairen is indeed going to Zen!
It seems that the emperor is tired of the endless struggle for succession, in order to calm the court dispute, in order to curb the civil strife, the emperor has made the final choice, and the succession of the crown prince is already a certainty!
After this huge political ** was cast, Shenguang Street was just stunned for a moment, and then erupted in deafening cheers.
When the common people under the roots of the imperial city saw this scene, how could they not understand? They all cheered loudly, they looked forward to the stars and the moon, and finally waited for the good news of the crown prince's succession!
The huge cheers were like waves, wave after wave, and even poppies and other people on the tower could feel the sound rushing towards their faces, and the scene was shocking.
The prestige of the crown prince is so much so that Si!
Chu Chu pursed his lips, looked left and right before whispering, "Then life will be sad after that......"
The prince's ruling policy is very obvious, and his policies are well known, among which the most widely disseminated are: tax reduction, tax reduction and forced labor, tax increase and gift and compulsory service.
This reduction and one increase, the former is aimed at ordinary people, and the latter is aimed at large businessmen.
Among them, Qinglou is among the tax increases, and it is a heavy tax!
Yu Meiren did not complain, she sighed lightly, and said: "Actually, it is also a good thing, now the common people are living too hard, and even our village has begun to have peasant households attached to it, just because our rent is a few points lower than that of other large households." At present, the imperial court is fighting in the southeast, and the southwest is also a big tail, the major sects are expanding day by day, more and more peasant households are attached to the sect to live, the imperial court cannot collect taxes, and it has continuously caught up with natural and man-made disasters, so if this continues, there will be big problems!"
The poppy sighed faintly: "The world is stable, only then can we have a place to eat, if the world is in chaos, how will you and I be well?"
Chu Chu pursed his lips and said, "When the sky falls, there is always a high top, right?"
Yu Meiren shook her head and said, "How can there be eggs under the nest?" I'd rather be a peaceful dog than a troubled person!"
Chu Chu sneered and said, "Miss, are you talking a little alarmist? Daqi is so powerful, how can you say that you seem to be about to destroy the country." ”
Yu Meiren shook her head and said, "I read history at the age of eight, and I have been reading for fourteen years now. That is: Any dynasty will rise and fall! Once the world is in turmoil, you and I will have no choice but to immediately go to Sister Liu and take refuge in Fengwu Pavilion. ”
Chu Chu was stunned and said, "Could it be that Shenjing can't stay anymore?"
Yu Meiren sneered: "When the world is stable, Shenjing is naturally stable, and the people of the world are naturally abiding by the rules, when the world is in turmoil, who will abide by this rule?
Chu Chu thought for a moment, and sighed slightly: "I hope this day will never come." ”
The poppy looked at the prince, frowned, shook her head slightly, and said, "I'm afraid that the tree wants to be quiet and the wind will not stop!"
Outside, Shenguang Street was bustling and boiling, and it was already extremely splendid and magnificent, but the two people on the tower sighed face to face, which seemed very out of place.
Just when they sighed, Shenguang Street had boiled to the extreme, in the rain of flowers, the crown prince Zhao Hanqing slowly walked up to the white jade platform that had been built a long time ago, and sat in the position where only the emperor could sit all the year round.
Zhao Hanqing sat on this high position, glanced down condescendingly, and was a little stunned for a while: Is this what it feels like to be in the world?
Zhao Hanqing raised his hand slightly, and everyone shouted "Xie Qiantose" again, and they all got up, and two or three hundred thousand people made a rumbling sound.
Just as everyone got up, suddenly there was a blast in the distance, which made everyone tremble, and they subconsciously looked in the direction where the sound came from.
I saw that at this time, a hole was blown in the sky, and a golden holy light fell from the sky, striking down obliquely, and in this golden light, a person slowly walked in, Ling Bo stepped under his feet, and the void became steps, this person was wearing a white robe and a white hood, covering his body and face, but everyone knew the identity of this person at this moment.
The national teacher is always far away!!
For a while, whether it was the people who could see the grand scenery near Shenguang Street and Shenhui Street, or the anxious people who couldn't squeeze in and couldn't see the grand scenery inside, they all looked up at the moment, stunned.
Everyone in the entire Shenjing saw this golden light, and they all saw the national teacher who came slowly from the sky, and for a time everything was robbed of its sound, and the heaven and earth were robbed of its color, even the crying children forgot to cry, and looked at the national teacher slowly descending from the sky.
The original hustle and bustle of Shenjing could be heard, and the whole world seemed to have been pressed the pause button, and everyone stood still, silent, and they watched in a daze as this person descended from the sky, snatching his soul and losing his soul.
And this is the majesty of the national teacher Changyuan!
