Shangyuan Festival (21)
Shicai is in the East Palace, Li Sanlang did not mention anything about the Keduo inferred by Gao Lishi, which was also discussed in advance between him and King Xiang and Gao Lishi, this person has a special identity, without conclusive evidence, he will have no chance of winning, Li Ke is impulsive, in case he is informed in advance, with his temperament, it will inevitably not be a big deal, and now only the prince is left, Li Sanlang then said: "His Royal Highness the prince, San Lang still has something to report." ”
The prince nodded and said, "San Lang, but it's okay to say it. ”
Li Sanlang looked left and right, walked straight to the prince, attached it to the prince's ear, and whispered: "Keduo may be... ”
When the prince heard this, his face was shocked, and his eyes almost popped out, and he couldn't help but say, "How could it be him?" ”
Of course, Gao Lishi also guessed that what Li Sanlang reported to the prince must be this matter, so he stepped forward and replied: "Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, according to the villain's observation for many days, although there is no evidence, it is expected that this person is indeed the most likely, so we must take more precautions today." ”
After hearing this, the prince nodded thoughtfully, and muttered, "According to your opinion, does Your Majesty know that this is the person?" ”
Colliers pondered for a moment, and then replied: "I have been by Your Majesty's side for a long time, and Your Majesty's wisdom and intelligence are indeed rare in the world, and nothing seems to escape her eyes, but... However, I don't think His Majesty was aware of this. ”
When the prince heard this, he couldn't help but sigh and said helplessly: "Hey... Hongu can... Understand. ”
At three o'clock, Li Ke and Pei Min arrived at the Jixian Hall as promised, at this time the sky was dark, the sunset was in the western mountains, only the distant mountains were still a little afterglow, and it was already night in the palace. But when the two arrived, the palace has been in charge of the lamp, at this time outside the temple of the immortals is gathered a large number of people, eunuchs, palace maids at least a thousand people, are responsible for the Son of Heaven's patrol of the guard of honor, some hold the Huang Luo cover umbrella, some hold the palm fan, but most of them hold the lantern, hold the palace lamp, set the immortal hall outside a brilliant, like day.
In the middle of the square outside the fairy hall, it is the son of heaven Luan who is parked, Luan Jia seems to be specially made for the Shangyuan Buddha and specially made, the scale of Luan Jia is larger than what is seen on weekdays, and it is more magnificent, the whole vehicle is made of golden silk nanmu, Luan is surrounded by gold accessories with sun, moon, stars, dragons and other patterns, Luan Jia is covered with golden tulle from top to bottom, it should be made of gold wire, if the female emperor sits in it, can look around, at the same time, the people around can also look up to the female emperor. Such exquisite and luxurious craftsmanship, Pei Min couldn't help but praise it when he looked at it from afar, but Li Ke's face was gloomy, and he muttered in a low voice: "I don't know how many people's efforts are for such a luxurious thing!" ”
There were already two people standing next to Luan, one of them was Shangguan Wan'er, today she was dressed as a man, and the clothes she wore were the same as Li Ke and Pei Min, and in addition, there were no accessories from top to bottom; The person next to her is Zhang Changzong, who is also dressed simply, without any superfluous embellishment, I expect that the people next to the female emperor today are like this, in order to make the female emperor really the focus of the whole god, and everyone else is just a foil.
Li Ke and the others hurriedly walked over, and when they arrived in front of Shangguan Wan'er and Zhang Changzong, Li Ke Shili said: "I have seen two adults, and the two of us are people from the mountains and wilderness, and we have never seen such a scene, I don't know."

What should we do now? ”
Zhang Changzong returned the salute and replied: "The two of you are too humble, you two are the same as the two of us, just stand by this Luan and wait for Your Majesty." Zhang Changzong said that, he didn't say more, and Li Ke and the two of them stood here face to face, just like the two of them, waiting for His Majesty.
At this time, the thousands of people outside the Jixian Hall were unusually quiet, no one dared to say more, they were all waiting quietly, seeing that time was losing little by little, but they never saw the female emperor out of the palace, Li Ke and Pei Min couldn't help but feel a little anxious, Li Ke then looked sideways towards the Jixian Palace, Shangguan Wan'er suddenly coughed as a reminder, Li Ke hurriedly turned around, and could only continue to wait patiently.
Finally, with a loud "squeak", the door of the temple of the immortal hall was slowly pushed open, and the outside of the hall was unusually quiet, the sound of opening the door seemed to resound throughout the square, and a eunuch took the lead in walking out of the hall and said loudly: "The time is right!" The auspicious time has come, Your Majesty is driving, everyone kneels! ”
After these words were finished, thousands of people in the square knelt on the ground at the same time, and Li Ke and the two hurriedly knelt down together when they saw this, and a deafening cry sounded in their ears: "Long live Your Majesty!" Banzai! Hooray! "The music is starting to play!
Li Ke glanced up, only to see that the female emperor was surrounded by more than a dozen eunuchs and maidservants out of the Jixian Palace, and today's female emperor's dress was the most grand Li Ke had ever seen in recent days. I saw that he was wearing a big crown, with twelve crowns, a big robe, and a black robe. The top is painted with the sun, the moon, the stars, the mountain, the dragon, the six chapters of the Chinese insect, the lower clothes are embroidered with algae, fire, powder, Zongyi, 黼, 黻 six chapter patterns, headdresses, earrings, hand ornaments are all available, each piece is exquisite, luxurious, the length of the crown dress behind the female emperor is more than one zhang, and the four maidservants on the left and right gently hold it up.
The female emperor slowly walked to the Son of Heaven Luan Driver with the rhythm of ritual music, and finally sat down on the Luan Driver with the support of several people, and the eunuch shouted loudly: "The Son of Heaven is driving!" A deafening cry sounded again in his ears: "Long live Your Majesty!" Banzai! Hooray! ”
Tianzi Luan drove slowly forward, and everyone also got up together and began to follow Luan out in an orderly manner. Li Ke and the other four followed Tianzi Luan inch by inch. Finally, Luan drove to the gate of the palace, at this time the palace gate has already knelt on the ground, this person is Huan Yanfan, he is dressed in military uniform, extraordinarily heroic, seeing the Son of Heaven Luan driving close, immediately said loudly: "Your Majesty, the Yulin Army outside the palace has been assembled, you can protect the Son of Heaven on patrol!" ”
The female emperor raised her hand in person, and the eunuch on the side immediately said loudly: "By Your Majesty's will, get off!" ”
Tianzi Luan drove out again, slowly out of the palace gate, only to see that there were already tens of thousands of feather forest troops on both sides of the road on the left and right sides of the palace gate, and saw Tianzi Luan driving immediately knelt on the ground, where Tianzi Luan drove by, deafening calls began to rise and fall.
Out of the gate of the imperial city, in addition to the Yulin Army and the forbidden army on both sides of the road, it is crowded with the people, according to the usual place where the Son of Heaven Luan drove through, at least 70 zhang away, but today's female emperor specially decreed, only 10 zhang away, so the people not far away have already been crowded to see Tianyan, Tianzi Luan drove through, and the people also knelt down together, shouting "Long live Your Majesty!" The female emperor in Luan's drive looked at this scene through the tulle, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but bloom

There was a hint of a smile.
If Chang'an City is the largest and most beautiful city in the world, it is true, but this god is not inferior to it, especially tonight, now the sky has completely darkened, but the whole god seems to be illuminated by a lamp. All the streets, no matter how big or small, have been hung with lanterns of the last moon at this moment, there are many styles of lanterns, there are big and small, there are animals, there are people, all kinds of colorful colors, simply decorate the gods beautifully.
The route of the female emperor's patrol is one of the three routes set in advance, in case someone sets up an ambush, until out of the imperial city to temporarily decide which road to travel, but these three routes have been prepared in advance, all the vendors have long been isolated, the army has blocked all the streets, the people can only watch Longyan from a distance of twenty zhang, but there are two roads on the people are not so lucky, in order to grab the position in the front, many people began to wait here in the afternoon, In order to be able to have a relationship with the female emperor when the Son of Heaven Luan passes.
Under the protection of these thousand honor guards and soldiers, Tianzi Luan drove slowly towards the Luoshui River. After an hour, Tianzi Luan finally came to the place where the lamp was lit and worshiped by the Luoshui River on time.
Hundreds of zhang long water lampstand, although it is full of lanterns, but at this time it is pitch black, not a single lamp is lit, there are only a few illuminated lamps along the road, the female emperor saw this, couldn't help but be surprised, whispered to Zhang Changzong next to Luan to ask: "What does this mean?" ”
Zhang Changzong smiled slightly and replied: "Your Majesty, this is deliberately set up, and when Your Majesty lights the lamp and worships the Buddha, you will know the mystery, and it will definitely bring unexpected joy to everyone!" ”
After hearing this, the female emperor nodded lightly and did not answer again.
Tianzi Luan finally arrived at the designated place, stopped, and looked at it from a distance, the other side of the Luoshui River was full of people, and all kinds of lamps were connected in a line, which was extremely brilliant and spectacular. In contrast, the lampstand of the Buddha at this moment is extremely dark.
There were already hundreds of people standing before Luan drove the car, and standing at the front were the crown prince Li Xian, the king of Liang, Wu Sansi and Princess Taiping, as well as a group of princes and nobles. After the royal family, the front ones wore purple robes and gold and jade belts, and those with thirteen taels should be officials of the third rank or above; After that, the four-grade officials wore deep scarlet robes and eleven gold belts; The five-grade officials wore shallow robes and ten gold belts; The officials of the sixth grade wore dark green robes with nine silver belts; The seven-grade official robe is light green, and the silver belt is nine long. . . Tonight, except for some of the people on duty in the Shendu, most of the officials have arrived here.
When everyone saw that the Son of Heaven had arrived, they knelt on the ground in unison and shouted in unison: "Long live Your Majesty!" Banzai! Hooray! After shouting in unison three times in a row, the other side of the Luoshui River seemed to hear the shouts here, and the noisy voices suddenly quieted down, and they also shouted in unison: "Long live Your Majesty!" Banzai! Hooray! The voice came through the Luoshui River, and it lasted for a long time, and the corners of the female emperor's mouth in Luan's car flashed again.
The voice of the female emperor finally came out of Luan's driving: "All the ministers are exempt from courtesy!" Zhang Changzong read the holy decree! ”
Everyone shouted in unison: "Thank you, Your Majesty! ”
