Chapter 18: The Night of the Lanterns
This time going out to see the lanterns is just an excuse, Lu Chang's main purpose is to take advantage of the fact that the Great Sui Dynasty has not completely fallen into a state of chaos and see the true face of the Great Sui Dynasty with his own eyes.
Are lanterns nice? Obviously not, what strange things has Lu Chang never seen in later generations? will run thousands of miles to see the so-called lanterns, isn't that a brain disease!
There is no such shop in this village! That's why I made this trip to Daxingcheng.
However, although he has not yet arrived in Daxing City, the harvest of this trip is not small, isn't the fourth heroic sea of the Sui and Tang Dynasties in hand? conquered Shen Yuzhen, the leader of the Red Pink Gang, and also had a relationship with Yun Luoyan, the beautiful military division of Wagangzhai.
What else can be encountered in the future, Lu Chang is looking forward to it......
Finally arrived in Daxing City, Lu Chang, Zhang Yu, Xiong Kuohai, Xin Wen and Shen Yuzhen, the leader of the Red Pink Gang, entered the city in a mighty way.
With Shen Yuzhen, the leader of the Red Pink Gang, accompanying him, he didn't have to worry about anything, everything was taken care of for him, including staying in the hotel.
Hehe, save the old nose money!
This guy is a stingy thing, he doesn't blush at all when he spends women's money, and he has the image of the so-called soft rice in later generations.
When night came, they went out of the inn and went out into the street, and saw the lights and candles shining as day. And in front of Sima Yamen, I saw a lamp tower, but it was made of colored satin, and a unicorn lamp was hung in the center, and there were four golden plaques hanging upstairs, which read: "Ten thousand beasts are coming." There is a couplet on the archway: Zhou Zuo is auspicious, and the virtuous saint descends to the state and has the way.
The Sui Dynasty offered Rui, and the benevolent monarch ruled the world without borders.
Under the unicorn lamp, there are all kinds of beast lamps around, and all kinds of beasts are ready. There are two sages on both sides, riding two beast lamps, and there is also a couplet, hanging on the left and right. It reads:
Emperor Zitong descended to the mortal world on a white mule.
Sanqing Laozi, across the green cow west out of Yangguan.
After everyone looked at it, they passed the yamen of the military department, and went to the east of Yang Gongfu, the head of these nearby people's houses, each set up a small lantern grille, set up a tablet for the son of heaven, and lit the lantern dream incense to offer flowers, in order to show the meaning of rejoicing with the people. The streets are playful, ghosts and gods, and the noisy shouts fill the streets, and in a short time, they have arrived at the head of Yang Gongmen. The lamp tower is the same as the yamen of the military department, although the building is the same, the lamp is different, it is a phoenix lamp that hangs, and the plaque is written with four golden characters, which reads: "Heavenly Dynasty Yi Phoenix". On the left and right sides of the archway pillar, a pair of golden couplets:
The phoenix wings spread Danshan, and the world is salty and new.
The dragon beard rises in the North Sea, and the world is full of grace.
Under the phoenix lamp, all kinds of bird lights are ready, hanging around. There are also two ancients, riding two bird lanterns, very neat. There is also a couplet, hanging around the archway pillar, which reads:
The Queen Mother of the West sat on Qingluan, and Yaochi went to the banquet.
The Antarctic birthday star rides a white crane, and the sea house adds chips.
Lu Chang just looked at the excitement and was not interested in it.
However, the majestic sea and grass are the cowards, and they have never been to the imperial capital. Today is a good day again, the lights are bright and the moon is bright, the gongs and drums are in the sky, the sheng songs are full of ears, and the joy is tight. Although he is a big boss, he is also very curious, and keeps asking Zhang Yu.
Tonight is very lively, there are a lot of people, and the majestic sea is crowded in the crowd, shaking their heads and shaking their heads, screaming and jumping, and they can't hold back. Looking at the excitement of the majestic sea, Lu Chang couldn't help but laugh.
Everyone built into the imperial city, to the front of the five phoenix towers, the crowd was tightly crowded, outside the five phoenix towers, but there was a royal lamp tower, there were two eunuchs, sitting on the chairs, with five hundred soldiers, each wearing a brocade jacket, each with a red stick with eyebrows to guard.
This lamp tower is not bound by paper silk paint, it is all overseas fragrance, and the treasure in the palace is built by playing. There is a plaque hanging on this lamp tower, which is all made of jewelry. At that time, all the tourists were in the lantern grille, interspersed and interspersed, looking for fragrance and smelling, how could they really look at the lamp? so that the people who cut the locks were mixed with the people, and they took away the jewelry and cut the clothes. Those coquettish women, restless at home, and like to come out to give alms, take this opportunity to get acquainted with Peugeot offspring, which is considered a pleasure.
Daxing City is the capital in the end, and its prosperity is not comparable to other places. However, the world soon fell apart, and I don't know how long the prosperity of Daxing City will last?
It's hard to say, maybe Li Yuan's establishment of the Tang Empire will soon be revived.
While watching the night view of Daxing City, Lu Chang thought as he looked around with a pair of eyes.
Lu Chang's group of people was walking, but he saw a group of people in front of him rampage towards this side.
Seeing that this group of people was not dressed like ordinary people, Lu Chang felt that it was probably a big family, so he asked the passers-by around him: "The group of people in front of him is so arrogant, who is this?" ”
"Childe, this person is the son of the Yuwen family, don't provoke it, we ordinary people really can't afford to provoke it!"
It turned out to be someone from Yu Wenhua and his family, no wonder he was so domineering. After thanking this person, Lu Chang's eyes looked at this group of people.
Sure enough, he was a hooligan on the street, and all women with some looks were harassed by him.
There was a widow in the city, who did not know good or bad, and took an eighteen-year-old daughter, named Yi Nu'er, out to see the lamp. The slave was born very beautiful, and when she went out, a group of young men followed, flashing up and down. As soon as I arrived on the street, the bees gathered and the ants gathered, and I couldn't help myself. The mother and daughter of the slave were each panicked. Unexpectedly, how many sticks did Yuwen Gongzi have, looking outside; Seeing Yi'er's appearance, he flew to report to the son, the son hurriedly caught up, saw the appearance of Yinu'er, and his soul was depressed, so he went to rub his back shoulder to shoulder and tease him, Yinu'er was so frightened that he didn't dare to make a sound, and there was no way out.
Wang Lao Niang didn't recognize Yuwen Gongzi, so she had a seizure, and Yuwen Gongzi tended to be angry and said: "This woman is rude, dare to bump into me?" Take him back! As soon as he said that, the family took the mother and daughter captive.
Wang Lao Niang and Yi Nu'er were shocked, shouting for help, the person on the street didn't recognize Yuwen Gongzi, who dared to provoke him?
Lu Chang, Zhang Yu and others also saw it, and everyone was indignant and planned to come forward to theorize, but they were stopped by Lu Chang.
"This place is the capital, no more than other places. The son of this Yuwen family, the Yuwen family is in a big situation, and I can't leave if something happens. Wait for me in that secluded place ahead, and I'll come as soon as I go. ”
Zhang Yu said: "I'll go." ”
"No, don't worry, I know it."
Everyone couldn't persuade them, so they had to let Lu Chang go.
Yuwen Gongzi took Yi Nuer to the gate of the mansion and detained Wang Lao Niang in the gatehouse, only Yi Nuer was pinched by these people through a few corners, turned a few halls, and went to the study.
That Yuwen Gongzi arrived immediately, put his mouth out, all the family members went out, only a few rings left, Gongzi hugged Yi Nu'er, and went to kiss the mouth, this Yi Nu'er is an unseen woman, I don't know what it means, I turned my face sideways, and pushed my hand away. When the son was about to stretch out his hand, Yi Nu'er was so frightened that she struggled and cried, "Mother, come and save me!" ”
Childe smiled, hugged him again and said, "Don't cry, you can't do it." ”
If the prince of Yuwen wanted to do that good deed, he sent Yahuan out, carried Yi Nu'er to the bed, and untied his clothes to be strong*.
That Yi Nu'er struggled desperately, crying and screaming constantly, but how could he have the strength of Yuwen Gongzi? No matter how loud the crying sounded, no one paid attention to it, and the people around him had already avoided it.
After a while, Yi Nu'er was stripped of her clothes by Yuwen Gongzi, and seeing that Yuwen Gongzi was about to succeed, Yi Nu'er was exhausted and was left like a lamb to the slaughter......
