The imperial court has been arguing about the affairs of the Second Survival Department, arguing back and forth, and everyone is annoyed, so it just passes.

The current Ministry of Survival has automatically become the "Second Ministry of Survival", although the sign of the Yamen still reads "Ministry of Survival". Their task is now to control population growth, not to promote it. Because of their own unjustified names, coupled with the resistance of the provinces, coupled with the strong resistance of Confucianism, the Ministry of Survival had a very difficult life, and almost became "rats crossing the street and everyone shouting and beating".

A dry and cold March passed.

On April 1, it is the season of spring and the growth of all things, and the thirty-second birthday of Queen Pu Qinghong has arrived.

At the court meeting, Tang Emperor Li Hongsi sat next to Empress Pu Qinghong and Empress Dongfang Mingyue, with a happy smile on his face. The empress usually does not go to court with the emperor, but this time they all came.

Dongfang Mingyue was wearing a light green robe, her belly was large, and she was also filled with a happy smile. I heard that she was pregnant a few months ago, but I didn't expect it to be so old, and she was about to give birth.

Park Qinghong is in her thirties, and her figure looks like a twenty-year-old woman. The reason why I emphasize "figure" is because the look on her face is very mature, much more mature than a girl-like woman like Dongfang Mingyue.

The three people on the dragon chair are really models of the empire, the emperor is handsome and chic, and the queen is the mother of the world.

The former eunuch Zheng Anmin announced: The queen's birthday is celebrated by the whole world, and the empire has a day off. Millions of subjects in Liaodong came to Chang'an to celebrate their birthdays, and Chang'an must fulfill the friendship of landlords.

What the hell! It seems that the emperor must love the empress very much, otherwise how could he make the empress's birthday a holiday? In the past, it was only the birthdays of the emperor, the first emperor, and the crown prince that were festivals.

Moreover, if you wish for a birthday, forget about your thirty-second birthday, what does it mean for you to come to Liaodong to celebrate a million people's birthday?

As soon as people heard Zheng Anmin announce the details of the celebration, they exploded, and the most frying pot was Prime Minister Yang Mingyang.

Chang'an was originally full of Liaodong people. You go to the street, you go to the restaurant, you go to the theater, and suddenly you still think that you are in Liaodong.

Even the number of Liaodong students in the Imperial University has grown rapidly. There were several group fights between Liaodong students and Gyeonggi students, and several people died. However, no one cares at all, on one side of the backstage is the queen, and on the other side is the prime minister, who is afraid of whom? So the fight continued.

Chang'an already has two million Liaodong troops, and this time hundreds of thousands of troops and hundreds of thousands of missions came in the name of birthday celebrations, what do you make others think?

Liaodong people really think that the world is the world of Liaodong? Gyeonggi people are not convinced! Obviously, the world is the world of the Gyeonggi people!

Yang Mingyang didn't wait for Zheng Anmin to finish speaking, he stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the ancestral family law has always been against relatives, and it has been like this in all dynasties. Now that millions of people in Liaodong are in Chang'an, does the imperial court listen to the emperor or the queen? ”

Park Qinghong on the dragon chair was very unhappy, pouting and twisting her buttocks, but did not speak.

Zheng Anmin put down the holy decree and said, "You are not a relative either?" Are your two nephews not princes? Don't they have the surname Lee? ”

Yang Mingyang: "It doesn't matter if it's a relative, but a relative can't be too strong!" The Liaodong Army is in Liaodong, why did you come to Chang'an? There are more Liaodong troops than the forbidden army and the imperial army combined, what should I do if I rebel? ”

Park Quanan yelled: "Nonsense! We have always been loyal in Liaodong, what do you mean by that? Our Liaodong Park family is full of heroes, and now there are few lone seedlings. And you? Gyeonggi is full of your Yang people, do you want to rebel? ”

This...... That's a bit of an exaggeration. The Liaodong Pu clan was killed by the "loyal ministers" of the Qing Empire, what happened to the Guan Chang'an court! What the hell is "Full of Heroes"?

Yang Mingyang was about to speak, and the emperor on the dragon chair waved his hand: "Okay, I agree." There are more people, so don't be too careful, Prime Minister. ”

So, the celebration was set.

It's a celebration you'll never forget.

April is the time when the peach blossoms are in full bloom. The peach blossom is a very frivolous flower. You see, she didn't even have a leaf, so she hurriedly bloomed, so crazy, so desperate.

The sun was so strong that it was almost forgotten that it was spring. I think of a word "spring sleepiness". The morning air is a little colder, but as the sun rises higher and higher, the temperature slowly rises. The peach blossoms on the side kept falling from the top of my head, as if bathing, as if caressing—I almost fell asleep.

Peach blossoms dripping in the running water. The clear water flows away with the petals, as if taking away people's expectations, and makes people feel very lost.

I touched the fallen petals. I thought the water would be as warm as the sun, but I was wrong, the water was as cold as ice, and I was excited, woke up, and looked at the Liaodong army walking in front of the parade.

Pu Qingyi, the governor of Liaodong Province and the overseer, led the team. He rode a BMW from the Western Regions at the forefront of the team. Hehe, at first glance, it doesn't fight. Because the sweat and blood of the Western Regions just looks beautiful and can't fight. Liaodong still relied on their local dwarf Liaodong horses to fight.

Park Qingyi is not yet eighteen years old and is Park Qinghong's only younger brother. Although Park Qinghong also has some cousins, this is her only real brother.

Park Qingyi tried hard to pretend to be mature - the shortcut to pretending to be mature is to frown without smiling, which is exactly what Park Qingyi looks.

Behind Park Qingyi was the neatly lined Liaodong Army, all of them armed with brand-new rifles. I looked at the bullets in their waists and understood that their arsenal was already about the same as the royal arsenal, and the next step was to make submachine guns.

Suddenly, everyone's eyes widened, and they took a few steps back, with a frightened expression on their faces, as if they had seen a monster, because people had seen a monster!

Hundreds of huge monsters followed!

-

-

I rubbed my eyes vigorously and watched.

The monster looked like a long-haired elephant, but it was much larger than an elephant, and it had a long snout and big ears, and the tusks were at least four or five meters long!

Each monster has an arrow tower with a dozen soldiers with rifles standing on it!

Looking at it, I finally remembered that the ancient books said that this is called a mammoth, the legendary mammoth, the mammoth that is said to have long been extinct.

I asked Zhao Yuyang on the side: "They did it from the forbidden land of Goryeo?" ”

Zhao Yuyang: "No, there is no such thing in the forbidden land of Goryeo. Mammoth is a specialty of the Far North Province. ”

Seeing these monsters, everyone in the Tang Hall was stunned.

The Emperor got up from the dragon chair, walked to the glass wall, and looked through the binoculars.

Emperor: "What is this?" ”

Park Quanan: "This is the Liaodong Mammoth Army, invincible in the world!" ”

The Emperor nodded and continued to watch.

At this time, Pu Qingyi had already passed with more than 100,000 cavalry, and the hundreds of mammoths were walking slowly. There are more than 100,000 Liaodong cavalry behind the Mammoth Army, hundreds of thousands of Liaodong missions behind them, and no less than 1 million Chang'an's birthday celebration teams behind them.

Now the "Mammoth Army" has blocked the palace avenue several hundred meters wide.

Emperor: "Why is it so slow?" ”

Park Quanan: "It's hot in the south, it's okay. Normal, normal. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the leading mammoth fell. It let out a roar and fell sideways, making another loud noise.

More than a dozen people fell from a height of seven or eight meters, and they were miserable.

Park Quanan: "It's okay, it's normal, it's a little hot." ”

But everyone could see through the binoculars that the mammoth was dead, and it spat black water from its mouth, and then soon lost its breath because its stomach was no longer moving.

A circle of people went up to pluck it, and someone even hit it with the butt of a gun, and it didn't move at all - it died.

The invincible mammoth in the world was killed by heat. It blocked the way of the mammoths behind.

There's a bit of a mess down there. It was almost noon, and as soon as the temperature was high, people were a little irritable, and the officer-like man pointed to the soldier and said something.

The Tang Imperial Army arrived from near the palace, and a truck also drove over. People put the dead mammoth on a rope and tried to drag it away. The truck emitted black smoke, but it didn't move.

The Tang Forbidden Army also arrived from near the palace, and a tank also came. Black smoke from the tank butt and roaring engines finally dragged the dead mammoth away.

The parade celebrations continued.

Park Quanan looked embarrassed and said, "It's okay, it's just a little hot." ”

The mammoths continued to walk slowly. Ten minutes later, under the palace, another mammoth also fell.

When one tank drove over and continued to prepare to pull, another mammoth fell. In a moment, dozens of mammoths fell to the ground, blocking the entire Royal Mile. Eventually, most of the hundreds of mammoths fell, and only a few were still standing, letting out a hoarse wail. This formation is like the remnants of a defeated battle.

Yang Mingyang was about to burst out of breath with a smile.

The ministers laughed too.

Park Qinghong's face wanted to kill.

While wiping his sweat, Park Quanan said: "It's too hot in the south, and in our north, the mammoth is very powerful, and it makes the Mongolian fart flow and urine, which is worse than a tank." ”

Park Qinghong yelled at Park Quanan: "What did you do? ”

The old man's eyes dodged: "I said no, you have to let them come to Chang'an." ”

Park Qinghong raised the teacup in her hand and threw it out, almost hitting Park Quanan's head.

Yang Mingyang smiled and said, "Then you are going to fight Mongolia, what are you doing in Chang'an?" Ha ha! Meat deliverers? By the way, is mammoth meat good? I recommend a mammoth feast in the evening! ”

The emperor looked at the clogged palace avenue below and smiled happily. As soon as he turned his head and saw the gloomy Pu Qinghong, he hurriedly held it back, and his face turned red.

It was the celebration that I remember the most.

-

-

Until the luncheon was held in the Tang Palace, the palace avenue was still blocked, and dozens of tanks were slowly dragging the mammoth's corpse, so that the roar of the tanks drowned out the laughter of the people.

In the end, dozens of tanks spent several hours towing hundreds of mammoths away, and I don't know where they went, probably the royal slaughterhouse or something.

The more than a million people marched through the procession, but no one looked at them, because the leaders were talking nonsense after eating.

The Tang Hall was divided into two groups. One is the imperial court, and the other is Liaodong. It seems that the emperor has given Liaodong a lot of face, and Liaodong can be on an equal footing with the imperial court.

Pu Qingyi, who was at the front of the Liaodong Mission, stood up and said loudly to the emperor on the other side, "Your Majesty! The Northern Sect, one of the top ten cults in the world, has been destroyed by us, and Beiding'an, one of the top ten most wanted criminals, has been killed! ”

Yang Mingyang, who was next to the emperor, immediately said: "Didn't the imperial court say that all sects are legitimate? Why do you still say they are cults? I was just established in the Tang Dynasty, where are there any wanted criminals? Besides, I'm the Minister of Law, and I haven't issued a wanted warrant yet, so why are you killing people? ”

Pu Qingyi: "We in Liaodong want to open up territory in the north, but the northern sect will not let it, what do you say they are not a cult?" ”

Wang Weijin, who was next to the prime minister, said while eating chicken legs: "There may be some reason." I've heard that there are ghosts and monsters in the north. ”

Pu Qingyi glanced at Wang Weijin and showed a contemptuous expression: "A cult is a cult, what's the reason." ”

Pu Qinghong continued to say to the emperor: "Your Majesty! We have expanded the border of the Tang Dynasty to the north by 500 kilometers! ”

The Emperor nodded.

Yang Mingyang continued: "You occupy the territory of the Far North Province? Far North Province and Liaodong Province are all the land of my Datang, and the left hand is down to the right hand, what is there to expand? ”

The Emperor pursed his lips and nodded.

Park Qingyi was about to speak, when suddenly, someone in the Liaodong birthday group shouted: "Your Majesty is the master for us!" Liaodong slaughtered the people of my Goryeo! The emperor calls us the shots! ”
