Chapter 319: The Royal Spring Festival
After about half a month, the whole tranquility has completely entered spring.
It's just that it's easy to get sick in spring, so Xia Wei will wear a veil when she goes out now, and what tidbits will fly in front of her and affect her.
Spring is coming, and the peaceful spring festival is about to begin.
The Spring Festival is a royal sacrifice and a celebration to pray for the blessings of the people - the meaning of the meaning is the recovery of all things and the joy of the people's family.
At that time, the emperor Xia Lin and the eldest princess Xia Wei will wear court clothes, and then they will sit on the gilt frame seat and travel around the entire capital, during which the two people will from time to time grab some copper coins from the golden basin and scatter them, which is a blessing coin.
It's just that although the spring festival in previous years was heavily guarded, it was not as heavily guarded as it is now.
ββ¦β¦ If I'm not mistaken, those guys might do it at the Spring Festival! Xiao Ruhang leaned against the door frame and watched Xia Wei choose jewelry, and couldn't help but speak seriously, "These people have been calm in the past few months, but I'm afraid they are planning some big moves!" β
At the Spring Festival, there were many mixed people, and Xia Lin and Xia Wei were directly exposed to everyone, so it was naturally the best time to do it!
And although the wind and waves have been very calm in the past few months, as long as Xiao Changye does not arrest the person behind him for a day, he will not be able to relax his vigilance for a day!
After all, Xiao Changye had told him that the spy was hiding by Xia Wei's side!
In this way, we must always be vigilant.
Those assassins are also very chicken thieves, probably knowing that Xia Wei stays in the palace and even does not go out in the palace these days, except for a wave of assassins who blatantly assassinated in the palace last month, there has been no movement.
Probably...... It's the calm before the storm.
And after Xiao Ruhang Balabala said a lot, he saw that Xia Wei was still unhurriedly selecting the jewelry to wear at the Spring Festival, and he couldn't help but speak a little speechlessly: "I said, are you listening to me?" β
"Huh?" Xia Wei, who was holding a vermilion hairpin and gestured to his head, took the time to glance at him, "I'm listening, I'm listening." You continue. β
Xiao Ruhang: "......" dare to put down the pile of pearl and emerald jewelry first and face him to say this?
"No, Hongu is really listening." Seeing that Xiao Ruhang looked at himself speechlessly and stopped talking, Xia Wei temporarily put down the Zhu Hai in his hand and looked at him, and nodded seriously, "This palace is just looking at the jewelry with its eyes, but its ears are listening to you carefully!" β
Looking at Xia Wei's serious appearance, Xiao Ruhang squinted: "Then let me ask you, what did you just say?" Where do you need to take more precautions at the Spring Festival? β
Hey, do you still do spot checks?
Small!
Xia Wei muttered in her heart.
Thanks to her, she really listens to it!
"Remember, you said you should be careful when you pass by the moat, and when you scatter coins." After she finished speaking, she looked at Xiao Ruhang with a smile, "I don't know if what Bengong said is right?" β
Yes, it seems that there is really a good listening.
Xiao Ruhang felt both relieved and regretful in his heart - it seemed that he couldn't go back.
"That's right, just remember." There was no way to pull Xia Wei's pigtails, and the seriousness on Xiao Ruhang's face relaxed, "There is also a ...... at the Spring Festival"
Xiao Ruhang began to draw up a lot of precautions.
The day after tomorrow is the spring festival, when the entire palace is already lively, and at the same time, there are guards who begin to check the road planning and arrange the spring festival the day after tomorrow.
As for the clothes to be worn at the spring ceremony, they have already been prepared, and they can start until the day after tomorrow.
In addition to the busyness in the palace, the people in the capital outside the palace are also very excited, and they are all thinking about grabbing the blessing coins scattered by the emperor and the princess!
It is said that those who can grab the lucky coins will have good luck and good fortune throughout the year!
Of course, whether luck is good or bad, whether it is good or not, whether it is good or not, can not be decided by a small copper coin, but it is all auspicious - mainly because this copper coin is given by the emperor and princess today, which is naturally rare!
Waiting for the second day, that is, the day before the Spring Festival, Xia Wei was resting all over the whole person - after all, she had to sit on a gilded walk around the capital on the Spring Festival, so she wouldn't be tired enough to choke at that time?
How big is the capital, it will take more than an hour to go around this circle!
Sitting in one place for more than two hours without moving, hiss-thinking about Xia Wei is a little distressed about her ass!
It's too much of a sin!
On the day of the Spring Festival, Xia Wei put on the bracers that Xiao Changye had sent before, and also put on the protective cicada clothes, as for the small dagger, she also carried it with her.
Xiao Ruhang's concerns are not without reason, and there is a great possibility of an accident at the Spring Festival at that time!
Because only Xia Wei and Xia Lin needed to sit on the gilded chariot and walk around at the spring ceremony, Xiao Ruhang could only change into the clothes of the guards and follow Xia Wei's chariot.
Because it was a festive day, the guard's clothes were black and red, Xiao Ruhang used his cheeks back, and he looked good in that dress.
"Yes, yes, it seems that our Xiao Gongzi is suave and handsome, even if he is wearing the clothes of a guard, it is difficult to resist the handsome and noble spirit from the inside out!"
Seeing that Xiao Ruhang had already changed into the guard's clothes, Xia Wei, who was wearing a red palace uniform, couldn't help but look Xiao Ruhang up and down, and finally praised him very sincerely.
However, in the face of this praise, Xiao Ruhang looked at Xia Wei with some suspicion: "Are you ...... Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief! It's really unaccustomed to praising me like this suddenly! β
After all, the two of them hate each other on weekdays, how could Xia Wei praise him like she did just now? There is a book shortage
"What's the matter, today is the Spring Festival, the palace is in a good mood, are you afraid of complimenting you twice?" Seeing Xiao Ruhang looking at him vigilantly, Xia Wei looked at him with some disdain, "I can't stand the praise at all!" β
ββ¦β¦ Who can't afford to be praised? Who told you to always hurt me in all kinds of ways on weekdays, how can I get used to this sudden abnormality? Xiao Ruhang said speechlessly, thinking about it, his eyes rolled for a while, and finally after some thought, he continued to speak.
"Her Royal Highness the princess is really beautiful today, and this red dress on your body is even more delicate than flowers, sinking fish and geese, closing the moon and embarrassing flowers......"
"Listen to it!"
Xia Wei almost got goosebumps when she heard this.
"You're normal!"
Looking at Xia Wei who looked frightened by herself, Xiao Ruhang's heart was very happy: "I'm just treating others in the way of others." So, now can you feel what I just felt? β
It's the same as Xia Wei's appearance that she was praised by herself just now - very terrifying!
Looking at Xiao Changye's smug face, Xia Wei only felt that this guy was very naΓ―ve.
"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you......" she waved her hand, then turned and walked outside, "The spring festival is about to begin, you get out of here and go to the guards." Be careful, don't be discovered! β
"I know."
As soon as he finished speaking, he directly performed light skills and left the main hall.
By the time Xia Wei walked to the door and looked back, the hall was already empty.
Walking out of the Xiluan Palace, Ah Xing and the other palace maids outside were already waiting, and when they saw her come out, they hurriedly went around behind Xia Wei one by one and helped her lift up the wide skirt.
And Ah Xing carefully supported Xia Wei.
The gilded chariot began to sit up from the palace, one of the chariots stopped at Weiyang Palace, and the other stopped at the gate of Xia Wei's Xiluan Palace.
After sitting on the chariot, a palace person lifted the chariot and began to walk towards the outside of the palace.
The distance between these times and the palace has been specially measured, and when Xia Wei sat at the palace gate, Xia Lin's chariot also happened to arrive at the palace gate.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of guards guarded around the two chariots, Xia Lin chariot in front and Xia Wei in the back, carried out of the palace by the palace people.
The streets of the capital have been cleaned up by the people in the palace yesterday, and the people are standing on both sides of the street, and they are all very excited.
Bu Yuan began to circle and pray from the palace gate according to a specific route, accompanied by several musicians, playing cheerful music as Xia Wei and Xia Lin traveled quickly.
According to the etiquette system, on the first street after leaving the palace gate, Xia Lin needs to scatter three blessing coins first.
"A handful of gold luck!"
"Two Samin An!"
"Three handfuls of people's livelihood!"
With the shouting of the priest in front, Xia Lin grabbed a handful of blessing coins and threw it out vigorously!
After the Fu coin was thrown out, the people grabbed it one after another!
After scattering three blessing coins on the first street, the next step is to see Xia Lin and Xia Wei's mood to scatter blessing coins.
It's just that on the last street of the Spring Festival, Xia Wei is needed to scatter three blessing coins.
Take the meaning of one head and one tail, there is a head and a tail.
The sound of silk and bamboo mixed with the cheers of the people and the sound of copper coins falling to the ground sounded, and the entire capital seemed to render this cheerful atmosphere, and the faces of the people were full of laughter, and although Xia Wei and Xia Lin looked relaxed at this time, they were actually already vigilant in their hearts.
There is a high probability that there will be danger at the spring festival, and they have to guard against it.
However, after half an hour has passed, the Spring Festival Rapid Tour is still going on normally, and there seems to be nothing wrong with it.
But Xia Wei still did not let her guard down.
Until she returns to the palace at the last moment, she will not relax easily!
After all, this is her own life, and she naturally has to cherish it!
An hour later, the Spring Festival was already coming to an end.
"It's strange that there are no assassins yet?"
Xia Wei sat on the gilded chariot and watched the chariot walk towards the last street.
"Could it be that we are really making a fuss, too much grass and trees?"
She had some doubts in her heart, but even though the Spring Festival was coming to an end, she still maintained due vigilance.
And just as the step was about to enter the last street, an accident suddenly happened!
Countless black-clothed assassins suddenly appeared on the rooftops on both sides, violently attacking Xia Lin's steps!
