Chapter 592: Salute fires, the whole country celebrates!
With the arrival of Li Er, the atmosphere of the ceremony became more and more intense.
Li Yi stood beside Li Er, his palms covered with sweat. His eyes were fixed on the hourglass in front of him, for fear of missing time.
"Stinky boy, there won't be any accidents, right?"
Seeing that Li Yi didn't move for a long time, Li Er couldn't hold his breath, after all, it was the first time, and Li Er had no bottom in his heart!
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, the minister promises to be foolproof, now the time is not up, you can talk to the envoys of various countries, this is a good opportunity to show off!"
When Li Er heard this, he was immediately relieved that the two of them were not talking loudly, and only each other could hear them.
After receiving Li Yi's hint, Li Er's heart moved, and he spoke: "Everyone, how is my Tang Chang'an?" ”
On the city wall, he knew in his heart that Li Er's words were naturally said to the envoys of various countries. Therefore, a number of ministers have set their sights on the envoys of various countries.
All the envoys are clear in their hearts, this ceremony, it is Li Er who flashed his fist at them, of course, these people were indeed shocked by the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, but after all, they are envoys of various countries, representing the face of all countries, and they are embarrassed to say this obvious slap on the horse.
However, not long after Li Er's voice fell, a woman's voice came out first.
"The imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty is the most prosperous of all countries, and the people of the Tang Dynasty are all people who know how to know things, and the warriors of the Tang Dynasty are even more powerful and domineering, and the Tang Dynasty is worthy of the title of the Heavenly Empire!"
Listening to the undisguised words, everyone's faces changed slightly, and when they heard the sound, it was suddenly clear that the person who spoke was the Silla princess Jin Shengman, Silla was the weakest among the three northeastern countries, and he had always been the head of the Tang Dynasty, and he also relied on the support of the Tang Dynasty to maintain his position, therefore, everyone was not surprised when he said this, not to mention, Jin Shengman was still a woman, and he didn't care about his face.
However, just as Jin Shengman finished speaking, someone continued: "What Princess Jin said is reasonable, Datang is worthy of the title of the Celestial Empire, and we and other small countries only have admiration, and I also hope to learn from the Celestial Empire, I don't know if Your Majesty can give me this opportunity to wait for small countries!" ”
When everyone looked at it, their expressions suddenly changed, but the person who spoke was Lu Dongzan, the great minister of Tibet, and Lu Dongzan's words made many people's faces change, including Li Yi.
"What a deep scheming, this Lu Dongzan is really not a simple character, a few words seem to praise the Tang Dynasty, but in fact it is secretly witty, learn from the Tang Dynasty, how to learn, marriage is undoubtedly the best way. If he usually brought this up, Li Er would definitely not agree, but now he and Jin Shengman have invisibly lifted Datang to the sky, if Li Er does not agree, he will seem narrow-minded and have no energy. But once agreed, Datang would be passive in the future, and it would be difficult to regret it, this Lu Dongzan could come up with such a calculation in such a short time, it was really terrifying. ”
Thinking of this, Li Yi couldn't help but look at it, seeing that his face was full of red light, obviously he was praised for being comfortable, and he was about to agree when he opened his mouth, Li Yi's heart suddenly became anxious, and Fang Xuanling and the others also had extremely ugly faces.
At this moment, Li Yi glanced at the afterglow and suddenly let out a low sigh.
"Your Majesty, the time has come!"
At the same time, he also secretly said in his heart: "It's dangerous!" "Fortunately, the time has come, and it is more important than anything else to be on time, so naturally this matter has been overcome, and no one can say anything!
Li Erzheng wanted to agree casually, but he heard Li Yi drink in a low voice, first stunned, then nodded, looked at the people and soldiers outside, took a deep breath, and shouted: "I announce that the first National Day ceremony of the Tang Dynasty will start now!" ”
After speaking, he glanced at Lu Dongzan as if he had inadvertently done so, obviously, Li Er also reacted, and he also had a better understanding of Lu Dongzan.
Seeing this, Lu Dongzan on the side flashed a touch of disappointment in his eyes, and at the same time leaned back slightly, hiding himself, and glanced at Li Yi, and a touch of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
Regarding Lu Dongzan's reaction, Li Yi was in no mood to deal with it, Li Er announced the start of the ceremony, and next, it was up to him.
"The first item of the ceremony, the salute is fired, and the whole country celebrates!"
When everyone heard this, they were puzzled and didn't know what the so-called salute was.
Seeing this, the corners of Li Yi's mouth hooked up with a smile, and then he saw a wolf warrior beside him waving the flag in his hand.
After a short time, the officials, the envoys of the countries, and even the people below who were still stunned suddenly heard an earth-shattering noise.
"Boom!"
It seems to be thunder falling for nine days, resounding through the four fields.
The loud noise made everyone lose their color, but fortunately, Li Yi said hello in advance, and no one shouted anything like help, otherwise it would not be ugly.
But seeing everyone's frightened looks, Li Yi still explained.
"Don't panic, everyone, this matter is my Datang upgraded version of the explosion, specially to celebrate the National Day ceremony, there is no danger!"
When everyone heard this, they immediately lost color, bursting, there is such a loud burst?
Li Er looked at Li Yi in disbelief, Li Yi gave a reassuring gesture, Li Er hesitated for a moment, but still decided to believe Li Yi, his body was upright, showing a calm look, Li Yi saw this, gave the wolf a gesture, and the wolf waved the flag again, signaling the salute to continue.
This was ordered by Li Yi in advance, and the salute was only fired for the first time, giving everyone a buffer time.
With Li Yi's explanation, everyone also came to their senses, thinking that this matter was over, however, who knows, this is just the beginning.
As the flag of the wolf warrior waved, the thunderous cannon sound began around Suzaku Square.
"Boom!" "Smack!" "Bang!"
All kinds of sounds resounded alternately in all directions, and the entire Suzaku Square was drowned in the sound of salutes, and for a while, there was no other noise in this world except for the sound of salutes.
And everyone, with the sound of the salute, slowly widened their eyes and opened their mouths, immersed in the shock of the salute.
Li Er on the Vermilion Bird City Wall tried his best to make a calm appearance, but in fact, his fists were clenched secretly, sweat oozed from his palms, and the corners of his eyes twitched frequently, which was really shocking, even if he believed Li Yi again, Li Er at this time was shocked for a long time and couldn't come back to his senses.
It took a quarter of an hour for the surrounding explosions to cease.
However, there is still a buzz in the ears of the people, which is the after-effect of being shaken by the salute.
Looking at everyone's sluggish expressions, a smile appeared on the corner of Li Yi's mouth.
This so-called salute is naturally the black powder that Li Yi configured himself, the formula of black powder is very simple, Li Yi didn't want to develop any cannon, he just wanted to make some movement, and even after the ceremony, Li Yi didn't plan to say the gunpowder formula, it was really too much involved, once the black powder came out, it would mean the beginning of the era of thermal weapons, thinking about the horror of the artillery fire in later generations, Li Yi couldn't help but shudder, this is a desolate beast, if he didn't want to make the canon foolproof, he would definitely not get this thing outNow, I plan to hide it for as long as I can.
However, no matter what, looking at the frightened and frightened expressions of the envoys of all countries, Li Yi felt that this adventure was worth it!
