Chabi and the concubines all gathered around, laughing and laughing at the hot air balloon, afraid that they would not be able to ride it after a while.

The two princesses walked up to Cheng Yue, Wan Ze asked curiously, and Cheng Yue replied a few words without a match, not wanting to explain in too much detail. Wan Ze heard that Cheng Yue had reservations, and was afraid that Cheng Yue would annoy her, so he immediately stopped asking.

Cheng Yue estimated the lift, turned back to Kublai Khan and said: "Great Khan, now the balloon can be lifted into the air, but except for the ministers, only two people can sit at a time, do the Great Khan and the Great Empress dare to go to the sky with the ministers?" ”

Kublai Khan was so proud that he said loudly: "You dare to underestimate me? What have I ever feared? Come, I'm with you! ”

Chabi was indeed a little scared, but Kublai Khan was going to go, what else could she say as a woman.

Cheng Yue opened the hanging basket, went up to check it carefully, then stood up straight and made a gesture of invitation to Kublai Khan.

Kublai Khan was extremely excited, and pulled Chabi and said, "Don't be afraid, I am here, I will accompany you." ”

Chabi nodded vigorously and strode into the gondola with Kublai Khan.

Cheng Yue made an upward gesture to Li Dashi, Li Dashi ordered the guards to relax the rope, and the hot air balloon quickly took off in the air!

There were exclamations and screams around him, and Chabi held Kublai Khan's hand tightly and gritted his teeth, afraid that he would accidentally call it out and provoke laughter.

Kublai Khan was an old man who was talking about juvenile madness, and he was so excited that he raised his other hand and roared, not caring about the shaking of the hanging basket at all.

Cheng Yue couldn't let him fall to his death, so he hurriedly stretched out his hands and firmly hooked the belts of Kublai Khan and Chabi from behind. Kublai Khan was stunned and greatly moved. And he was no longer afraid. I have a good impression of Cheng Yue.

The balloon rises quickly. Soon it rose several tens of meters. Look out again. The streets around the Pony Mansion were already densely packed with people, and as long as there was a high place in the distance, it was full of black heads. The entire capital, regardless of men, women, young and old, high and low, everyone is looking at the big ball that suddenly appeared in the Horse Mansion!

I saw that there were actually people under the big ball, and two of them were obviously the Great Khan and the Great Queen, and the other was unknown without asking. It must be Cheng Zuocheng. The crowd of onlookers immediately let out a loud cheer, and many people couldn't help but kneel down and shout long live, and Kublai Khan laughed heartily, even more proud.

With Cheng Yue protecting him in the back, Kublai Khan and Chabi could enjoy the scenery of Dadu with peace of mind. After the balloon soared more than 100 meters, the scenery was unprecedented, and all the details of the capital were presented in front of the three of them, even the imperial palace was clear.

Kublai Khan found out about this and couldn't help frowning.

Cheng Yue said with a smile: "Great Khan, this is the reason why the minister wants to invite the Great Khan to come up first." You can't let ordinary people casually watch the inner palace. ”

Kublai Khan nodded and said, "You're right, most of you can't allow the hot air balloon to be raised casually in the future." Otherwise, wouldn't the inner courtyard of the palace be watched? ”

Cheng Yue said: "Yes, the minister obeys the order." ”

Kublai Khan said: "Can it be raised again?" ”

Cheng Yue said: "Yes." With that, he lit the kerosene stove, and a fire flew up, and the balloon went straight up.

Rising to the highest point of more than 200 meters, Kublai Khan's expression became even more excited, and he said tentatively: "Cheng Yue, your hot air balloon is a good thing, can you sell one to me?" ”

Cheng Yue shook his head and said, "This thing is newly made, and it is still uncertain whether it is safe or not, and the minister cannot sell it for the time being." ”

Kublai Khan knew that he was prevaricating, but there was nothing he could do, so he had to sigh. Ahma is right, you must be able to build it yourself, and you can't rely on others.

The view from above was so beautiful that Kublai Khan didn't want to go down after watching it for a long time, and from time to time he waved to the cheering crowd below. Cheng Yue was not in a hurry, and chatted with Chabi with a smile, which made Chabi even happier.

Kublai Khan became more and more obsessed with the magnificent land under his feet, and turned back to Cheng Yue and said: "Cheng Yue, you have written "Linjiang Immortal", which has been sung for thousands of years, can you still write a poem now?" ”

Cheng Yue was stunned, Kublai Khan was a Mongol, why did he ask if he could write poetry? Said: "The minister can't write it for a while, and the Great Khan forgives me." ”

Kublai Khan said regretfully: "You Han scholars, when you see such a spectacular scenery, you can't help but write a poem, I also have feelings in my heart at this time, but I can't write it, I always feel that something is missing." ”

Cheng Yue smiled: "I see." The poem can't be written, but when I think of the Great Khan's expedition, and see this situation, I get a sentence, which is better than nothing. ”

Kublai Khan said, "Oh? Is there only one sentence? ”

Cheng Yue said: "Yes, there is only one sentence." ”

Kublai Khan said with great interest: "One sentence is fine, let's talk about it, every sentence of your "Linjiang Immortal" is a classic, and this sentence must be very good." ”

Cheng Yue smiled, his palm downward, pressing the vast earth and rivers under his feet, and recited in a deep voice: "Ask the vast earth, who is the master of ups and downs?!" ”

As soon as these nine words came out, it was like a rolling thunder exploding in front of him. Kublai Khan's hair moved, frightened and inexplicable, his right foot unconsciously took a step back, looking at Cheng Yue's heroic face, the fear in his heart could not be suppressed!

Cheng Yue glanced at Kublai Khan with an inexplicable expression, and said: "The Great Khan is about to sweep through the Northern Wilderness and restore the foundation of Taizu, is it inappropriate for the minister to offer this sentence?" ”

Kublai Khan's temples were sweating, and he reluctantly smiled: "Good word, I was distracted for a moment just now, and I didn't stand firm." Cheng Yue, you better finish writing this poem, I want to see it. ”

Cheng Yue waved his hand busily and said: "How can this work, the Great Khan obviously doesn't like it, and the minister is a game for a while, so it's okay if you don't write it." ”

Kublai Khan had palpitations, but he was not reluctant, and said, "I'm tired, go down." ”

Cheng Yue replied respectfully, took out a flag and shook it down three times. Li Dashi's neck was sore when he looked at it below, and finally got the signal, and commanded the guards to slowly pull the balloon down.

Kublai Khan settled down, and went down hand in hand with Chabi, the concubines and ministers shouted long live, Kublai Khan smiled shallowly, and suddenly a strange thought rose: Cheng Yue is behind me, are these people kneeling to him?

Cheng Yue didn't know what Kublai Khan was thinking, and after Nanbi got up, he smiled and said, "Your Highness, please put on the balloon." ”

Nambi excitedly dragged Nangkajin's mother, Queen Kokolun, into the basket instead of Queen Tarahai, who was ranked third.

Empress Kuokulun is ranked sixth among the concubines, with bright eyes and bright teeth, and a graceful figure, and she is only thirty-three years old this year. She married Kublai Khan at the age of fourteen and gave birth to Nangkajin at the age of fifteen. Cheng Yue saw her at Kublai Khan's banquet, but it was Kublai Khan and the Empress who presided over the princess's marriage.

Empress Tarahai didn't blame Nanbi, but looked at Wanze with a deep meaning. Wan Ze's mother is Babahan, the highest ranking among the concubines, but she is not the queen, Nan Bi's move, who supports marrying Cheng Yue has been revealed.

Although Cheng Yue was smiling on his face, he was a little worried about Wan Ze in his heart. glanced at Wan Ze, and it happened that Wan Ze was also looking at him. The two looked at each other, and Wan Ze smiled, not worried.

Cheng Yue winked at her appreciatively, Wan Ze lowered his head shyly, and the leather boots on his feet tapped the ground, indescribably cute.

Kuo Kuolun was very happy to receive Nanbi's public support. She had a rare opportunity to get closer to Cheng Yue, pointed to the balloon on her head and smiled: "Cheng Yue, how high can this fly?" ”

Cheng Yue smiled: "Chen really doesn't know. Since this balloon was made, Chen has not let it continue to climb upward, but Chen can be sure that the height it can eventually reach will be at least dozens of times the height just now. ”

The two queens were surprised, they thought that they were already extremely high just now, but they didn't expect it to be even a fraction.

Cheng Yue signaled, and the balloon began to rise. The two queens are the children of the grassland, very generous, Cheng Yue touched their waists when he buckled their belts from behind, they didn't even pay attention to them, and only cared about enjoying the scenery from the heights with great interest.

The balloon rose higher and higher, and soon climbed to the top, Cheng Yue watched the mature and graceful figures of the two queens from behind, and the mood was also excellent.

There are often gusts of wind in the autumn in the north, and I didn't feel it just now, but suddenly a gust of wind struck, and the two queens were unstable, so frightened that they were about to shout, Cheng Yue immediately pulled back with both hands, and pulled Kuo Kuolun down to the left side of the kerosene stove, and he and Nan Bi squeezed to the right side of the wide kerosene stove.

The space in the hanging basket was cramped, and Cheng Yue had to hold Nanbi in his arms so as not to squeeze into the kerosene stove.

In Nanbi's life, except for Kublai Khan, no man has ever hugged her so closely. Cheng Yue's hand honestly and unceremoniously wrapped around Nanbi's waist, Nanbi's waist was very thin, there was no fat, and it was very comfortable to hold.

The strong wind was still blowing, and Cheng Yue took the opportunity to hug Nanbi tightly, and his body was also close to her. The autumn is crisp, the two of them are not dressed much, and each can feel the heat of each other's bodies and the elastic skin.

Nan Bi was already stupid, and he couldn't move if he wanted to, so he could only let Cheng Yue hold her in this ecstatic posture.

Worst of all, she could clearly feel a small thing that shouldn't have been slowly landing on her buttocks, and she was so frightened that she pushed forward desperately, trying to get away from it.

Cheng Yue was also embarrassed, he didn't mean it, this was a man's natural reaction. With a beautiful woman in your arms, it's not normal to feel it, right?

Kuo Kuolun only saw Cheng Yue's back, and he didn't know how tight they were, and he couldn't take care of it at this time. The wind seems to be stronger, she can hear the squeak of the rope on the hot air balloon, there will be no danger, right? I want to ask Cheng Yue but I don't dare to ask, if Cheng Yue is angry, what can I do if I don't marry Nangjia?

Nan Bi was so anxious that he turned around, faced Cheng Yue, and asked in a low voice, "It's okay if this balloon encounters the wind, right?" Why don't the people below take it? ”

The faces of the two were only a few inches apart, just like a pair of cross-necked mandarin ducks, Nan Bi was shy and embarrassed, exhaling like an orchid, which made Cheng Yue confused for a while, and he didn't hear her ask anything at all. (To be continued......)
