288. Chapter 146: The Spring Sacrifice

The spring festival is not held on a fixed day, sometimes due to the weather, it is common to be early or late, but all the first three days, the royal people have to attend.

The wolf took Helan Yao to Mingyang City early in the morning, and as soon as he left with his front foot, the wizard who observed the weather ran to the Qinzheng Palace to announce that the ceremony would be held three days in advance, and there would be a tendency for heavy rain in the future.

Helan Hong dismissed the sorcerer, found the minister to discuss, and then told the queen mother, and within half an hour, the decree was issued, and the spring festival ceremony was held three days in advance, and all the participants set off in advance.

There are countless cities in the Great Plains Kingdom, and each town has sent several representatives to participate in the Spring Festival in accordance with the custom, and according to the custom, they arrive ten days in advance every year, and are warmly entertained by Mingyang City, so after the Heavenly Wolf and Helan Yao arrived at Mingyang City, there were several generals who had fought side by side with the Heavenly Wolf Zhilu said that he was here, and came to him to reminisce about the past, whether he was the eldest son of the first emperor of the Great Plains Kingdom, the eldest brother of the current emperor, or the former head of the Mobei horse thieves, they are all people worth befriending.

Helan Yao had no interest in getting together with a group of people who didn't know each other and didn't have friendships, so he left the wolf and rode a horse to the main venue of the Spring Festival, he hadn't come to the Kangqing grassland for many years, he missed the beautiful flowers and fresh air on the grassland.

Eight miles southwest of Mingyang City is the main venue of the Spring Festival, which connects the Kangqing Grassland and the Daling Grassland, and is the boundary of the grassland with the most kinds of flowers and plants in the Great Plains.

The main venue was set up a few days earlier, stretching for several miles, it was still the same semicircle as before, the royal position was still so significant, and for thousands of years, the status of the Helan family in the Great Plains Country had not changed at all.

The snow-white robe was gently blown by the warm spring breeze, and the black hair was raised, leading the horse, and if he didn't pay attention to it, he was completely mistaken for a stunning woman.

The beauty of the Helan family is admired by the people of the Great Plains, only the god clan can have such beauty, for thousands of years, the men of the Helan family have been awe-inspiring and looking up by the people, and they have been sitting firmly on the throne for thousands of years.

People walked around the main venue, some were soldiers maintaining law and order, some were still decorating the venue with flowers, and some were just like Helan Yao who came to see it first, idle, wandering around.

Looking at the position where the emperor should be sitting, Helan Yao's heart shook a trace of unconvinced, obviously he is the eldest son of the first emperor, the prince of pure blood, he is the one who should sit on the throne, what is Helan Hong.

I didn't hear the wolf mention the matter of pardoning him, it should be said that the Queen Mother and the Emperor still didn't know that he had been freed, and when they saw him, they didn't know what kind of expressions the Emperor and the Queen Mother would show.

No matter what, he wanted to see their faces, he was the prince of the first emperor, even if their mother and son wanted to kill him, the wolf would not let him die, this was the bargaining chip in his hand.

"Hey, I'm not mistaken, you're Helan Yao." A man's surprised voice came from behind him, and someone rushed towards him.

The clear voice was familiar to him, turned around, and smiled, "Long time no see, stars." "I haven't seen him for a few years, and the person who was shorter than him has caught up with him, tall and strong, if you don't recognize him from the voice, it's really hard to believe that the person in front of you is the sick man before.

"It's really you." The red and black robes were embroidered with the pattern of a flying dragon, and the joy of reunion flew on his outstanding face, Helan Fanxing threw himself at him with open arms, "Oh my God, Helan Yi really let you out!" ”

"It's out." Helan Yao was held in his arms, smiling and patting his back, "Very good, very good, even better than I imagined." ”

Helan Fanxing, Helan Yi's cousin, his father is the younger brother of the first emperor, from the hands of the first emperor to govern North China, Yinlan invaded the Great Plains twice, and was desperately resisted in North China, as long as North China is abandoned, Helan Fanxing inherited the excellent bloodline of the Helan family, among the many clan relatives, the most loved by the Queen Mother, and he has been friends with Helan Yao since he was a child, after Helan Yao was imprisoned in the dungeon, he ran from North China, knelt in front of Helan Yi to plead, was coldly refused, from then on, He will not meet Helan if he dies.

"Ah Yao, you haven't changed at all." Helan Fanxing reluctantly let go of Helan Yao, his face full of joy, "I didn't expect to see you at the Spring Festival, fortunately Helan Yi went to Zhao State, otherwise, I still can't come this year because of my illness, so I will send a messenger to deal with it." ”

Helan Yao chuckled, it seemed that his younger brother had offended a lot of people, "If you don't come, won't you miss me, let's go, let's drink, after so many years, your alcohol consumption should also improve." ”

"The amount of alcohol has not improved, but there are some things that you can't think of." Helan Fanxing took his hand and looked at him carefully, "After all these years of being locked up in a dungeon, your will has not been wiped out." His eyes flashed with a light that Helan Yao could understand, smiled, raised his head, and sighed, "I've been waiting for a long time, and now with you, I will definitely be able to fulfill my wish." ”

Helan Yao was stunned, he heard his voiceover, his wish, is he still sticking to his persistence back then?

"Stars, don't do that." Pulling his arm, he persuaded, "Give up if you are not very sure, I see that you are governing North China, so you should continue to live according to your original lifestyle." ”

"Are you scared?" Helan Fanxing turned around and gave him a mocking look, "Helan Yao should still be Helan Yao, and after a hundred years, it should still be the original virtue, I'm right." ”

Holding his hand hard, confident and contented, King Jing'an, who participated in the Spring Festival for many years, suddenly appeared at the main venue of the Spring Festival, whether it was pre-set or just a coincidence, Helan Yao didn't think about anything, he knew that Helan Fanxing had a wish since he was a child, that is, North China was independent and autonomous, and he was also a man from the Helan family, and he was sure that as a separate family, he had the ability to rule North China independently, and there was no need to bow his head to the royal family.

Their friendship is very deep, when he rebelled, Helan Fanxing also wanted to participate, he refused him, King Jing'an has been operating in North China for decades, dominating one side, since there is no idea of spying on the emperor's throne, then do not get involved, continue to operate the land in North China.

He knew that he was strong in blood, and he was not ripe to encourage his family to raise troops, but when he wanted to stop, he had to send the arrow, and he ended up with the whole clan being wiped out, he didn't want to admit that he regretted it, but in fact, he regretted it.

Far away from the people in twos and threes, Helan Fanxing and him stood on a flowery meadow, looking at the endless grassland in the distance, each with their own thoughts.

"How did Helan Yi come up with the idea of releasing you from the South Lake of the Chu Palace?" In one sentence, he has always known Helan's whereabouts.

Helan Yao chuckled, his eyes were amazed at the vitality of the grassland, shrugged his shoulders, and looked completely unconcerned, "The tiger was pulled out of its sharp teeth and locked in a cage, and after a long time, it became docile and docile, and it was released." ”

Helan Fanxing stood side by side with him, glanced at him, and chuckled: "It's a fact that you were locked up, I see that your sharp teeth are still there, and you are not docile, I am afraid that Helan Yi will be deceived by your illusion, thinking that you want to live, and the rest is not important." ”

"Who knows." Helan Yao smiled indifferently, "You have been very good at governing North China over the years, I advise you, if you still have the original idea and become the overlord of one side, then don't make any moves, otherwise you will harm yourself." ”

"My goal is to achieve autonomy in North China, and I don't have to obey orders with Helanhong." Helan Fanxing did not hide it at all, and said with a smile: "However, I'm afraid Helan Hong won't agree, so I think North China is autonomous, the wish is big, and the hope of realization is small, but this time, I have come to my senses, and the strength of North China Helan Hong should also be very clear, and give him a surprise at the Spring Festival ceremony." ”

Helan Yao was stunned, and gave Helan Hong a surprise, what kind of surprise would it be?

"Ah Yao, if you don't have a place to live, come to North China, with your talent for governing the country, what are you afraid of in North China."

"Ye Buli has 200,000 Black Tiger Army in his hands." He Lanyao reminded, "Helan Yi is temporarily in Zhao State, but his prestige is still there, don't act casually, when the time comes, you will end up like me, and it will not be good to affect your relatives." ”

"To tell you the truth, I have made enough preparations over the years, they are all from the Helan family, I want this part of North China to establish himself as the king, if Helan Hong does not agree, start to move, he has many brothers, there are Helan Yi, Helan Xue, and now there is another Helan Ling, but if it really starts, our North China Army is fighting at home, and they don't take me very well."

I haven't seen each other for a few years, it's like a different person.

Helan Yao knew that it was inconvenient for him to say anything, patted him on the shoulder, and smiled: "It's not that I'm afraid of things, I just regained my freedom, and I want to experience the taste of freedom, I won't participate in your affairs, and I won't tell Helan Hong, stay out of it, just see what step you can do." ”

"If the Helan family is in chaos, naturally they don't have the energy to take care of North China's affairs."

That's the same, I just don't know what he can do to make the Helan family a mess.

On the Tiancheng side, the emperor's trip had already been prepared, and it was not a problem to leave early.

Yan Jasmine was thinking about it, what was wrong, the princesses of the two neighboring countries were invited to participate in the Spring Festival Ceremony, in such an environment as the Spring Festival Ceremony, Tian Wolf and Ye Buli could not refuse the girl's kindness, they must be by their side all the time.

Thinking about it, the most wrong place is that Helan Yi is not in Tiancheng, this time he still did not participate in the Spring Festival, such an important event, the King of Chu is not there, the people will definitely think that something unpleasant happened between the King of Chu and the Emperor, otherwise, with the importance of the King of Chu to the Spring Festival, no matter what happens, he will participate.

Yan Jasmine couldn't help but wonder, compared to Zhao Yuling, the spring festival is still occupied by his wife, Helan Yi is like this, after Tian Wolf and Ye Buli have a wife and children, will they be the same as He Lanyi, pay attention to their own family and forget her mother, it should be said that the mother has become unimportant.

There is one more thing she cares about, she has long heard Toba say that Rongxue likes a powerless civilian man outside the palace, as the only princess of Ohara Country, the person she wants to marry is not a powerful person but also a nobleman, a commoner, how can she be a colt of Ohara Country, at this spring festival, she has already ordered Toba to take that man to meet her, what kind of person will it be?

In fact, Helan Rongxue's matter is relatively simple, she often mixes with civilians, outside the palace, she has long forgotten her identity as a princess, she has forgotten herself, and few people who have dealings with her know her true identity, and it will be too late when they have mutual admiration.

The noble princess and the lowly commoner, the hopeless love, therefore, Rongxue has been very unmotivated to stay in her dormitory recently, and has not gone out.

Princess Melting Snow, who lost her vitality, Yan Jasmine also felt distressed when she saw it.
