The old lady was a little puzzled, and the Duchess of Weiguo didn't play dumb riddles, and said directly: "I heard that at the lantern festival tonight, the emperor wants to reward the three armies." ”

Shu Manyao suddenly opened his mouth wide - reward the three armies at night? Or is it at a time when people like this are crowded? Where's the feast? Or is it just a few generals who come out to be crowned and finished?

Not only Shu Manyao looked puzzled, but even the old lady was a little puzzled: "Reward the three armies tonight?" The three armies have entered the city? ”

Shu Manyao immediately added another question to his question-yes, the three armies have entered the city? How did you get into town? Where are you stationed in the city? I haven't heard anything happen this day, have you? The people of the capital like to watch the excitement, if it is really the victory of the army and the return of the court, it is impossible not to gather on the street to watch. And when the army enters the city, it can't be quiet and there is no movement at all.

"I haven't entered the city, I'm still outside the city." The old lady Wei Guogong said with a smile and patted the old lady's hand: "If you just reward the three armies as before, it is not unusual, this time, I heard that the emperor and the queen are going out of the palace and to the city wall." I also just got the news, so I hurriedly posted it to you. ”

The old lady pursed her lips: "How many years have you been here, your lively temperament hasn't changed, isn't it just that the emperor and the queen are out of the palace?" It's not like you haven't seen it, so you have to come to join in the fun. ”

Duchess Wei Guo feigned anger: "Look at it, I kindly took you to see the excitement, you are still not happy!" I've seen it, but have these juniors seen it? That's the Son of Heaven! ”

The old lady hurriedly smiled and said, "I know you have good intentions, but I'm just a little worried......"

Duchess Wei Guo understood after thinking about it, and patted her hand with a smile: "You, you are just worrying, the emperor is out of the palace, where can there be no arrangement?" Take a look down and see what's different. ”

The old lady looked at the window, Shu Manyao was also curious, and saw that Duchess Weiguo did not stop her, and followed to see. However, she has no experience in the end, after watching it for a long time, she only feels that there are lanterns on the street except for people, it is still very early at this time, even the sun is still setting, and Shu Manyao really can't see any difference from the past.

It was the old lady who looked a little solemn, and only smiled after a while: "Now that the age is prosperous, the saint has arrangements for traveling, and it must be a smooth journey." As he spoke, he sighed again: "I'm afraid that martial law is already under martial law outside the city at this time, otherwise, we can still go and see the saint reward the three armies." ”

The old lady of Wei Guogong pouted: "Even if there is no martial law, we can't go to see it." ”

Rewarding the three armies is such a big thing, who can watch it if they want to? It's just a big man, his status is not enough, and he can't come forward, let alone this backyard woman, it is already a great honor to be able to watch the holy car halfway.

The two of them talked for a while, and then they heard the noise of gongs and drums below, and then they heard someone shouting to avoid, and the Shu Manyao sisters and the juniors of the Weiguo family were lying on the window to watch.

The first to come out to clean up the streets was the people of the Nine Gate Admiral Patrol Division, this is too common, when Shu Manyao went to the street, he occasionally saw soldiers wearing this kind of clothes patrolling the streets, but there were more people at this time.

Next is the Praetorian Guard, at first glance, it is stronger than the people of the Nine Gate Admiral Patrol Division, and the momentum alone makes people dare not approach.

Although there was pomp and circumstance when the saint left the palace, the pomp was not very large, and the people of the Praetorian Guard stood up, and saw the golden frame slowly coming, because the curtain was hanging down, and everyone could not see the people sitting inside, but this did not hinder everyone's excitement, and before anything, the people on the street all knelt down.

The people in the restaurant were no exception, when the frame did not arrive at the restaurant, the old lady of the Weiguo Mansion took the lead in kneeling down, and Shu Manyao and the others were no exception, and they waited until they heard the footsteps of the Praetorian Guards below before everyone got up.

Shu Manyao couldn't figure out what he was looking at today, just looking at a car? However, seeing that the people around him seemed to be quite excited, Shu Manyao didn't dare to ask this.

"After rewarding the three armies, will the saint and the mother come back from here?" The old lady asked casually, and the old lady of the Weiguo Mansion shook her head: "It should be directly back to the palace from the other side, there is a lantern festival tonight, it's okay to walk now, it's a little later, there are more people on the street, I'm afraid it's not easy to go." The safety of the saint is paramount, and he either spends the night directly outside the city or goes directly to the palace. ”

There are hot spring mountains not far from Beijing, the emperor established a small palace over there a few years ago, it only takes half a day to pass from the city gate, Ming'er is just resting, maybe the emperor will not come back today.

As she was talking, the child Li Baoying was holding in her hand suddenly pounced on the Duchess of Weiguo and said coquettishly: "Grandmother, I'm hungry."

The old lady immediately said: "Look at me, I just want to talk to you, I forgot about this group of children, it's not early, let's have dinner first, and it's late for a while, let them go outside to see the lanterns." ”

Duchess Wei felt sorry for her grandson, so she immediately responded.

After dinner, Shu Chengye sent someone first: "Old lady, the old man said that while there are few people at this time, I want to take the girls outside." The little servant sent by the prince of Weiguo also responded with a smile: "The second master said that he wants to take a few girls and young masters outside to see the excitement." ”

Tonight's reward for the three armies, the Duke of Wei and the prince of the country are going, so it is the second master of the Duke of Wei and the younger brother of the prince who is guarding the old lady of the Duke of Wei today.

The old lady of the Weiguo Mansion waved her hand happily: "Go ahead, but you can't cause trouble for your second uncle, you have to listen to your second uncle for everything, you can't make your own decisions, you know?" If you have anything, just tell your second uncle, and if you want to buy something, just ask her, Baoying, you are older, but you have to take care of your brother, do you know? ”

Li Baoying responded with a smile, Shu Manyao's side, the old lady also explained a lot, and then Shu Manyao led Shu Manjin and Shu Manyu downstairs. Li Baoying smiled and held Shu Manyao's hand: "Otherwise, let's go together, there will be more people and more lively." ”

A girl behind her smiled: "Big sister, although there are many people, it is lively, but the road is not easy to walk, there are people outside, if we go together, I am afraid it will be too crowded, in case something happens, we can't afford it." ”

The other girl nodded and smiled: "What the third sister said is, big sister, let's go separately, there are too many people, just what you want to see, it's not fun to watch, it's better to go separately, if you want to be with Miss Shu, why don't you come back later, and you two go out for a walk?" ”

Speaking of which, Shu Manyao couldn't help but say nothing: "I understand Sister Li's kindness, but my brother must be in the same place with my father, which is a little inconvenient." ”

After a year, Shu Zheming is already twelve years old, and he is already sensible, so he can't be with girls. Moreover, in addition to the five-year-old little brother pulled by Li Baoying, there are other brothers in the Li family, who are just in another place at this time, and they will inevitably accompany the sisters in the family to enjoy the lanterns later, and it is inconvenient for the two families to go together.

Li Baoying suddenly realized: "Oh, I just said that I forgot something, or Sister Shu was thoughtful, then let's go play separately first, and when we come back, we will talk about the good things we see." ”

Shu Manyao responded with a smile, separated from the girls of the Li family at the staircase, put on a hat and walked to Shu Chengye's side.

"There used to be a restaurant there that sold some noodles and the like on weekdays, but when it came to the Lantern Festival, it would sell Lantern Festival, and his Lantern Festival was the most delicious." Shu Chengye walked forward with his daughters, and introduced with a smile: "I don't know if there is anything now, if there is, my father will take you to taste it." ”

Shu Zheming stretched out his finger and pointed: "Daddy, isn't that family?" I've eaten wonton with people here before, and it's delicious. ”

Shu Chengye looked at it and nodded again and again: "It's indeed there, let's go there and eat some Lantern Festival." ”

"Daddy, we just had dinner at the restaurant!" Shu Manyao hurriedly grabbed him: "I just want to eat Lantern Festival, I have to wait until we finish shopping, and we will eat it when we go back, and then buy one more and take it back for my grandmother to taste." ”

Shu Chengye patted his forehead: "It's still Manyao thoughtful, I actually forgot about such a thing, then let's go shopping first." Over there, did you see it? There is a competition to guess lantern riddles, do you want to go and see it? I see that other people have lanterns in their hands, otherwise, let's go and see, if you have something you like, Zheming and I guess it's okay to come back and give it to you? ”

"Okay," Shu Manjin nodded first, but she was very in favor of anything that could make Shu Zheming stand out, Shu Zheming was good, she would be better in the future, and she and Shu Manyu had reached a common understanding at this point.

It was useless for Shu Manyao to object, not to mention that she was also a little interested, so a few people went to see and guess the lantern riddles.

"Push the door and take a look, there is a big general in the door, you say Guan Yunchang, he says Chu Overlord." Someone read it out in front of him, and I don't know who shouted a fan, so the man shouted and took down the lantern and handed it over.

Shu Manyao looked around, looked at the lantern hanging on it, and then pulled Shu Chengye's sleeve: "Daddy, I want that lotus lantern." ”

After speaking, she didn't listen to anyone's answer, turned her head and looked, her face immediately turned red - Shu Chengye was standing in front of her left, she dragged it, and the one on the right was another man, and he was the son of the Yang family, Yang Jianbai.

At this moment, Yang Jianbai looked at her expressionlessly. Shu Manyao panicked, hurriedly put down his hand, and muttered about to daoqian.

"Man Yao, which one do you want? That lotus lantern? At a loss, when he heard Shu Chengye ask, Shu Manyao hurriedly turned his head, tugged Shu Chengye's sleeve, and nodded vigorously: "Well, it's the pink one." "Okay, you wait, Daddy is going to win you back, stand here biedong." Shu Chengye explained, and called the mothers-in-law who were left behind to come over and surround Shu Manyao sisters, turned his head and asked Shu Manjin and Shu Manyu, and then took Shu Zheming to the front. Shu Manyao looked at Yang Jianbai, thinking about whether to continue daoqian, but he didn't have time to say it just now. It's just that this time she didn't wait for her to speak, so Yang Jianbai turned around and left directly.
