In the first month of the fourth year of the first year, the spring climate of this year seems to have come a little later, and the snow on the land of Bingzhou has not yet melted, even if spring begins, it is still cold.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Shangyuan Festival, this is the first festival that Liu Yuan has spent in the land of the Han Dynasty. Stepping into the Han realm and changing customs, this is the most solemn festival of the Han Dynasty, no matter what its origin is, this Shangyuan Festival, Liu Yuan is planning to have a good time.

In the middle of the first month, Liu Yuan passed down the edict, and the people of the Jinyang clan could celebrate. On the night of the full moon of the fifteenth, the lights are lit, the night market is not closed.

This order set off a wave among the tens of thousands of people in Jinyang City, which can be regarded as Liu Yuan's first pro-civil decree since the Xia State ruled Jinyang.

has just survived the cold winter, and the new year old brings new hope, Liu Yuan's move also caters to the people's hearts. Since the thirteenth, the atmosphere in Jinyang City has been completely active, which is a kind of "New Year" atmosphere.

The nobles, officials, families, and merchants in the city are all beaming, and each family is lively, and the servants clean up the front of the house, paint the Zhumen, and buy festival materials on a large scale. Ordinary Qianshou is not as "extravagant and wasteful" as the big family, but he also prepares new clothes and takes out the best food at home.

Every family prepared paper lanterns, and some smart people made more and sold them in the city, but not everyone was willing to put that energy into making lanterns, and they were quickly snapped up. People with a little family assets will take the initiative to buy, attracting many people to follow suit to make some money, and in a short period of time, a wave of lanterns "hot market" surged in Jinyang City, Liu Yuan, which is considered to stimulate consumption in disguise.

In the Xia Wang's Mansion, it is naturally full of lights, and Zhang Rang is busy with the eunuchs and palace e's preparations for Liu Yuan's Shangyuan Festival.

On the fifteenth night, Liu Yuan led the two wives, three sons, and officials and generals of the city to present Taiyi prison and worship the god Taiyi in the mansion. Although I don't have much feeling about what is too one-god, let alone any awe, but since I have this heart, the play must be done.

After the complicated sacrificial ritual process, according to the old practice, the sacrifice to the Taiyi God should be from the faint to the light, but Liu Yuan does not have the patience, and it is enough to make a show.

That night, Liu Yuan had a night banquet in the palace, with Cai Yan and Wan Nian on the side, and Zhen's mother and daughter were not qualified to participate in such a banquet because of their status.

After three rounds of drinking, the city of Jinyang has become lively, and the curfew in the past has now relaxed the restrictions, just like the prisoners have the opportunity to let off steam, and no family is closed to rest, and they all go out for activities.

After sobering up, Liu Yuan led Cai Yan and Wannian out of the house to play. After Zhen's mother and daughter entered the palace, Cai Yan had a much colder attitude towards Liu Yuan, Liu Yuan was in a happy mood, and he didn't care about it.

The whole city is brightly lit, and the most lively is the East Market in the daytime, and the voices of people are boiling, and they can be heard clearly from miles away.

Dressed in regular clothes, they turned around twice on the periphery of the heel, and the lanterns were hung everywhere, and the pedestrians were happy to play, and it was very lively. It is rare to see this "grand scene", and it is indeed unforgettable.

He wanted to go deeper, but he couldn't resist Long Yuan, he was adamant not to let Liu Yuan go to the chaotic place, he was not sure that the risk was too great, and he did his duty very carefully.

After thinking about it for a while, Liu Yuan didn't feel that it was appropriate, so he gave up and took people around the city to the east.

On the east city of Jinyang, the torches are bright, there are also a lot of lanterns hung on the female wall, five steps and a post, ten steps and a sentry, the soldiers are numerous, on this festival, the guard of the city is still not relaxed. Dugusheng is in charge of the city's defense, and it doesn't seem to be taken lightly.

In this eastern city, you can hear the excitement behind you, on the night of the fifteenth, the moon is indeed round and abnormal, and the bright moonlight sprinkles on the earth, shining in the Jin water outside the city.

Outside the city, on the bank of the Jinshui River, the movement is not small, and there are two or three thousand people scattered along the riverbank, putting river lanterns in the river. At this moment, it has become a scale, looking at the past, the dotted river lanterns, the lights flickering, floating on the water, continuously, drifting south, it looks quite gorgeous.

"It's beautiful!" Cai Yan looked intoxicated, and was left in Meiji by Liu Yuanqiang with Cai Yong when he was a child. Growing up in the grassland, he can only know many things from books and from Cai Yong's mouth. It's a pleasure to see this beautiful scene with my own eyes now.

"This scene, the concubine hasn't seen it for a long time!" The mood of Wannian next to him didn't seem to be very high, and there was a hint of sentimentality in his eyes, as if he recalled the grand scene of Shangyuan when he lived in the Han Palace.

When Liu Yuan heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said to Cai Yan: "Zhaoji, if you have the heart, you two will be allowed to go out of the city, and you will also go to release the river lantern, and make a wish for this year!" ”

"King Xie!" Hearing this, he immediately lifted the corner of his skirt, and after ten thousand years of recovery, he walked down the city tower in small steps and went out of the city.

"Long Kui, you personally lead someone to escort the two ladies!"

On the top of the city tower, only Liu Yuan was left to look up at the moon, in front of him and behind him, the excitement was still there, but under the hustle and bustle, how many people were really surrendered to him? It's an unknown.

Blown by the cool breeze, Liu Yuan sobered up a lot, and ordered the guards beside him: "Call Chang Lin here!" ”

"King, what's the matter with summoning ministers!" After a while, Chang Lin rushed up to the city, took a few breaths, had a little sweat on his forehead, and bowed to Liu Yuan.

"Is there still peace in the city?" Liu Yuan asked.

Shangyuan Night Market can't help it, this public security problem is big, and on such a day, it is inevitable that some small people will jump out.

"King Qiqi, there are indeed some hooligans and ruffians in the city, who took the opportunity to rob and steal, and the ministers ordered the city to arrest and overwhelm the bullets in time, but they did not make waves. In addition, General Dugu sent the patrol army to closely inspect everywhere, and everything was still stable! Chang Lin said respectfully.

"There are thousands of lights in the city, and the wood is flammable, so we need to prevent water from going away. The various government offices and government treasury need to be guarded by people and strictly guarded, so as not to be taken advantage of by the youngsters! This night, I will work hard for you! If there is a problem, you can find Qiu Linju and Dugusheng to solve! Liu Yuan instructed.

"The minister understands!"

Liu Yuan still believed in Chang Lin's ability, and waved his hand: "Go ahead with your business!" ”

"No!" Chang Lin saluted again, slowly took a few steps back, and then turned to leave. To maintain the stability and harmony in this night city, he Chang Lin and Jinyang belonged to the officers and soldiers, and it took a lot of energy.

Idle to the side to look a few times, there are many guards, and there is a serious-looking guard officer standing in the corner, it is Gao Shun. This trapped general, who descended to the summer with Lu Bu, was forcibly transferred to serve in the guard army, but he had a kind of meaning of "being in the summer camp and being in Lu".

Calling him to his side, Liu Yuan asked, "Gao Shun, you might have thought that the people of Jinyang under the rule of Lone Zhi could show such a happy face?" ”

"The king of Quannai is majestic and has a good governance!" Gao Shun hesitated for a while, and confided in "difficulty".

"What you say is insincere!" Liu Yuan stared at Gao Shun, who was buried in his head, and smiled faintly: "That's it, go to Nandaying with Gu to have a look!" ”

The military and civilians are happy together, and this Jinyang summer camp is naturally quite lively.
