Chapter 591: The Curtain Begins!
The fifth day of the eighth month is a day that must go down in history for Datang, because, from today, he will have an unusual significance, the day of the first National Day ceremony, although it is not Datang's National Day, but it is enough to prove that it is unusual.
In the early morning, as soon as the purple light breaks through the sky, it is fleeting, and in an instant, the red glow like a girl's shyness covers her face, and a ray of morning sun is like a sharp sword, and the light that breaks through the night like a bamboo comes to the world again, and a new day is about to begin.
On the city wall above the Vermilion Bird Gate, Li Yi was dressed in a purple official robe, with a golden sword at his waist, his face was grim, looking down on everything in the Vermilion Bird Square below, and giving various orders in an orderly manner.
Looking up at the sky, the clear sky and warm sun were cloudless, and I was relieved, fortunately, the Qin Tianjian gang of magic sticks were quite reliable, and the prediction was more accurate, the National Day ceremony, there was no need for good weather, no wind and no rain, it was the best advice.
A smile appeared on the corner of Li Yi's mouth, the start was smooth, I hope it will be like this all day.
"Little Grandpa, there are three dependent soldiers in the honor guard who suddenly have abdominal cramps and diarrhea!"
Just then, a soldier came to report.
Li Yi's face was cold. "Tell Duan Zhan, I don't care what method he uses, before the hour, all the problems of the honor guard must be solved, the three honor guards, either, solve the problem of abdominal pain as soon as possible, or change people, after the hour, if there is the slightest problem, let him come to see him!"
The soldier felt a chill in his heart and hurriedly promised to leave.
Li Yi was irritable in his heart, the more critical he came, the more he made mistakes, there were no major problems, but small problems continued, if it wasn't for his adequate preparation in advance, I am afraid he would have been anxious by now.
"Little Grandpa, Your Majesty asked me to ask, is the ceremony going well? When to start! ”
"Help me repay Your Majesty, the ceremony is going well, three o'clock, start on time!"
Sending the little father-in-law away, Li Yi thought for a moment and began to command.
"Pass my order, let the King of Shu immediately scatter the writers of the Shanshui Academy around, do a good job of liaison work, and be sure to record everything that happened in the canon, and not miss a single thing!"
"In addition, let His Royal Highness the King of Shu send another wave of leaflets, and be sure to let more than half of the people in Suzaku Square remember the lyrics of the national anthem."
"Order Jiang Lichen, Xie Junhao, fully launch the three arrest forces, and make sure that there are no accidents during the ceremony."
"Summons Yuan Tiangang, ink seal, check the salute, be sure to pay attention to safety!"
......
One order after another was issued from Li Yi's mouth, and then the guards around him conveyed them one by one, these people are all the wolf warriors of the Hades Palace, for this ceremony, Li Er has let all the wolf warriors go out of the nest, there are three hunting patrols in the open, and in secret, there are wolf warriors to monitor, such a tight defense, even a mosquito is under control, and it is difficult to come up with accidents.
As for the wolf warriors in the Hades Palace, these people's skills are not up to par and they can't meet the standards of real wolf warriors, so they were sent by Li Er to give Li Yi a hand.
"Little grandfather, it's three quarters of the hour!"
Li Yi looked around for a moment, and then calmly handed down the order.
"Order, the officials of the two counties will arrest and organize the people to enter in an orderly manner!"
......
Suzaku Square is the largest square in the whole area, surrounded by extremely open, Jinguang Street on the left, leading directly to Jinguang Gate; Chunming Street on the right, straight to Chunming Gate, in the middle is Suzaku Street, straight to the famous gate, originally there are two squares of Shanhefang and Xingzhifang in the middle of the three streets, now in order to expand Zhuque Square, Li Yi directly bulldozed part of the land of the two squares, greatly expanding the area of Zhuque Square, at this time of Zhuque Square, enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people.
At this time, under the brand-new and neat Suzaku city wall, there is a sparkling moat, and the two sides of the river are planted with various wildflowers, and in the center, there are three wide Suzaku bridges. On the Suzaku city wall, there is also red silk all over, and in the center, there is a square object covered with red cloth.
After crossing the Suzaku Bridge, you will be greeted by a towering mysterious object, covered with a red cloth; Behind is the simple but solemn national flag stand.
On all sides, there is a wide cement flat land, and in many places, it is paved with special stone bricks to form various patterns.
On the huge Suzaku Square, the left and right streets have been cleared at the moment, until the city gates on both sides, there is no trace of people, and the same is true for the Suzaku Street in the middle, and on both sides of the square, the original two squares have been captured by hundreds of gods to encircle a huge area, with Li Yi's order, I saw all kinds of people walking in one after another.
These people are not casually let in, but Li Yi asked the household department, Chang'an and Wannian counties and the press institute to jointly select them, these people are all from Chang'an, as well as representatives of nearby state capitals, and they all have a common characteristic, that is, good conduct, no bad behavior, otherwise, at the National Day ceremony, there are one or two lawsuits, then it will be a bunker. And before these people came, they had already told some things, such as the national anthem, and most of these people would sing it.
At five o'clock, thousands of people finished entering, all quietly waiting for the ceremony to begin, although there was some noise, but it was harmless.
At six o'clock, Li Yi ordered again - the three armies entered!
Immediately, thousands of soldiers, dressed in armor and lined up in a neat formation, slowly drove in, and then stationed on both sides of Suzaku Street, in front of the people.
These soldiers are all elites selected from the army, although they are not as good as the honor guard, but they are also from the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood, thousands of people to that station, a killing breath spreads, so that the surrounding people are discolored, the original noisy sound gradually subsided.
At seven o'clock, Li Yi ordered again that all personnel must be in place for the last inspection!
At the moment, when the people were waiting a little anxiously, a high-pitched and loud voice suddenly came out.
"Your Majesty has arrived! The Queen Mother has arrived! ”
Immediately, everyone saw that on the Suzaku city wall, a group of ministers dressed in red and purple slowly walked out around Li Shimin and Empress Changsun who were wearing golden dragon robes.
"We greet Your Majesty!"
The moment Li Shimin appeared, thousands of people and thousands of soldiers, led by Li Yi, knelt down in unison, and the loud voice shocked the heavens and the earth, and for a while, the heavens and the earth were overshadowed.
Looking at the greatly changed Suzaku Square, and the orderly soldiers and people, Li Er's eyes couldn't help but rise with pride, and in the surprised eyes of the envoys from various countries who came later, he waved his big hand.
"Everyone, flat!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
It was another time when 10,000 people shouted in unison, and the sound shook all over the world.
Li Er walked to the center of the city wall with a glorious face and looked around. The ministers stood behind Li Er, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Changsun Wuji and other civil officials, as well as a group of military attaches headed by Li Jing, all in place. The envoys of various countries are lined up left and right, and the National Day ceremony is about to begin!
