The 60-meter-wide Fu'an Avenue has countless high poles on the side of the street, which are full of all kinds of lanterns, dazzling and dizzying.

The princes and nobles of Luoyang City, during the Shangyuan Festival, every family compares the lanterns and places them along the street to see whose lanterns are novel and whose are luxurious.

Yin Shi people will also make exquisite lanterns, so that children can go to the street to play, and there are also merchants who make lanterns of various grades with their own trademarks, or make lantern riddles and set up prizes, or sell or send them to attract lantern tourists.

In recent years, even the tributes of foreign countries have been added with rare lanterns. These jewel-decorated lanterns with a strong exotic style are generally only exhibited in the palace and then collected in the warehouse, and the common people do not have the opportunity to see them.

I saw a piece of red from afar, it was a big lamp stand about ten zhang high and more than 20 zhang wide, hundreds of red lanterns were hung on it, a gust of wind blew, all the lanterns swayed with the wind, the bell under the lantern made a crisp sound, it was very spectacular, attracting countless people to stop under the lamp. There is also a huge colored carp lamp, which is vivid, and the tail and head will swing slowly; The most amazing thing is that there is a Ferris wheel like a lantern, slowly turning, 20 zhang high, turning up to be brilliant, someone next to him praised that there are 10,000 lanterns, there is Lu Commander on the side to explain, Shen Mengxi only knew that this "Ferris wheel" is made by the saint, placed on this street, and the people are happy.

It seems that the people of all Luoyang have come to the streets, and the further they go, the more people there are. Next to the brilliant lanterns, it is even more impassable. At this moment, in the sea of lanterns, there is no way back, but to go with the flow.

The guards opened the way, but they still had difficulty walking. After only a quarter of an hour, Jian'er couldn't walk anymore, and she was crying bitterly. Shen Mengxi picked it up and held it in his arms, seeing that the guards who followed him were taken aback, and hurriedly wanted to take it, Shen Mengxi waved his hand and asked him to go away. Jane put her arms around her neck and looked at her brother and sister ostentatiously.

Shen Mengxi was wearing a fur collar and a bearded suit, and it was convenient to hold the child, she sat Jian'er on her left waist, supported his ass with her left hand, and held Yu'er tightly with her right hand, so that Yin'er could walk in front of her and be seen at any time.

At this time, most of the people wearing Hu clothes were maids, for the convenience of work, and noblewomen with status disdained to wear them. Shen Mengxi doesn't care about these, of course, shopping is mainly about convenience. Didn't even cover your face.

What she didn't know was that a wind of hufu then blew in the aristocratic circle.

After another quarter of an hour, there was a commotion in the crowd, and a glittering float slowly came in front of it, and the two tall horses pulling the cart actually had a pair of shining blue wings on their backs, fluttering their wings, and the melodious sound of the flute, which came out of the car in a low voice.

Jane let out an exclamation, it was a light he had never seen before, and many people looked around curiously, marveling at the soft hazy dreamlike light, but they couldn't find the flame.

Shen Mengxi took her three children over, and the coachman got out of the car and saluted her.

——It turned out to be the float of the princess's mansion, all the way from the track, to welcome Shen Mengxi's mother and son.

The three children, who had no idea, were pleasantly surprised, cheered, and climbed into the float.

The float does not have a carriage, but uses a light stick to build the outline of the frame, as well as a variety of star patterns, the lanterns on the car have the wings of the roc, and the galloping horses, and the back of the round rabbit lamp, the rabbit droops its ears, squints and sleepy, and is cute and cute. And the lights in all the lanterns are magically without flames, but bright and dazzling.

This float is really dazzling, and there are countless children behind the car, if you don't know that this is the float of the powerful family, I'm afraid the children will rush up to touch it.

The four mothers all got into the car, and the guards followed from far or near.

Shen Mengxi took out a cold fireworks stick, lit it with a fire fold, and let them shake it, and suddenly sparks burst out, jumping in the night sky, and with the swing of the child's arm, a gorgeous trajectory was drawn, and the children let out a cheerful laugh, even Yin'er, who had always pretended to be old, laughed, and the brilliance in his eyes was more than fireworks.

The crowd of onlookers also let out exclamations, and the children even jumped up, some sat on their father's shoulder, waved their little hands, and cheered.

The carriage turned around and slowly headed for the track.

After a few minutes of walking, I saw a group of people lining up with tourists, catching up, and negotiating with Commander Lu, the carriage stopped, and the pedestrians gathered more and more, and gathered around to see the excitement.

Commander Lu led a person to the float, and the man saluted: "Yulin Army Cui Jiu pays a visit to Her Royal Highness the Princess!" ”

Yulin Army, Shen Mengxi sighed, the emperor's private soldiers have all come out? Could it be that the prince came out to see the lights?

Cui Jiu Cui Jin, the son of Cui Sai Restaurant, is a heroic young man, twenty-one or twelve years old, with a white face, a combination of rigidity and softness, very eye-catching, Shen Mengxi secretly praised in his heart.

The women who were watching on all sides were also knowledgeable, and they had already begun to throw handkerchiefs and purses.

"General Cui, this is ......," Shen Mengxi asked on the float.

"His Majesty was guarding nearby, and when he saw sparks flying in the car, he came to warn, but he didn't know that it was the princess, and he was offended! For the safety of the princess and all the ladies and gentlemen, please don't set off fireworks! ”

"Oh? Thank you General Cui for your concern. However, this fireworks look lively, but in fact, the ignition point is low, and the temperature is also low, which is very safe. Otherwise, Hongu will not let the children hold it in their hands! ”

Cui Jiu took a lit firework, took a closer look, and stretched out his hand to try it, although he didn't understand the principle, he also knew that this firework was safe, and he was a little surprised, and said: "Your Majesty is lonely and unheard, disturb Princess Yaxing, please punish the princess!" ”

"It's okay, General Cui is conscientious and understandable." Shen Mengxi guessed that he must have escorted the prince out to watch the lanterns, and when he saw the potential danger here, he came over to negotiate.

To be honest, security is not easy today.

Shen Mengxi asked the coachman to take out a large handful of hand-cranked cold fireworks sticks and handed them to Cui Jiu, "Give it to your family Langjun to play." Take good care of your eyes. "Obviously, the prince of Cui Jiu's guard must have also seen the fireworks here.

At this time, there were almost no fireworks, and when Sun Simiao was refining the pill, he inadvertently invented gunpowder, but it was only for the purpose of driving away evil spirits, and it was rare to be expensive, and this cheap cold firework was definitely a rarity.

Cui Jiu was slightly stunned, thanked him, and took it.

The carriage moved slowly, chasing a group of children behind it, laughing all the way.

After passing Beishi Street, turning south, the accompanying children gradually left. Crossing the Luoshui Bridge, the lanterns in Luonan are even more prosperous, the wider the street, the more pedestrians, and a group of children chasing the float cheering and laughing, Jian'er had to snort for a while, and finally had enough, sitting in the car and beating a small drum, the rhythm of the knock knock, Yin'er guarding her younger brother next to her, Yu'er snuggled in Shen Mengxi's arms, in this noisy street, the little girl fell asleep peacefully.
