Chapter 291: There Are Meteors Tonight
The emperor took out a cloisonnΓ© enamel pocket watch from his bosom, looked at the hour, and said, "It's time soon, you stop for a while, and you will eat these when you come back." β
"Huh? Where to? Ying Yun asked, but her eyes fell on the pocket watch in his hand, and she said with a smile: "Your Majesty, where did you get this thing?" β
"I will take you to see the stars," the Emperor smiled secretly, and then handed her the pocket watch, and said, "This is a gift from the English envoy when he met me, and it is different from our twelve hours, and you can't understand it, Queen." β
Yingyun's face is full of black lines, in modern times, a watch that can be understood by a child of five or six years old, will she not be able to read it?
She was amazed that it was worth a lot!
Ying Yun had a crooked idea and said: "Your Majesty, you look down on the concubines too much, if the concubines can understand this watch, then the emperor will give it to the concubines, how about it?" β
The Emperor looked at her with amusement and said, "Yes." β
Ying Yun took the pocket watch, only glanced at it, and said, "Six forty-five." β
The emperor looked at her in surprise and wondered, "The queen will look at the time of the West?" β
"Surprised? Not surprised? Ying Yun smiled at him, put the pocket watch in her hand, and said, "Your Majesty, you said it yourself, as long as the concubine can understand it, this thing will belong to the concubine." β
The emperor sighed helplessly, and she took another treasure.
At this time, Yingyun was very happy in her heart, such a valuable thing, it would be nice if it could be brought back to modern times, rare antiques, and it is worth a lot of money.
Yingyun pulled up the emperor and said, "Let's go, now the concubines can accompany the emperor to see the stars." β
The emperor withdrew the eunuchs who accompanied him, and only took Yingyun alone out of the meditation room and walked to the highest peak of the back mountain. There were guards stationed there in advance, freeing up an open space for the emperor and queen to enjoy the night view. The first grab
The night view from the top of Mount Tai is charming, especially tonight when the moon is hazy and the stars are speckled with stars. The air in the mountains is fresh, and the smell of it makes your heart and lungs stretch.
However, such a night is extremely ordinary, and it is not surprising that such scenery can be seen in several mountains in the capital.
Ying Yun said suspiciously: "Did the emperor say that he brought his concubines to see these stars?" β
The emperor's eyebrows tightened slightly, and he said, "Wait, what time is it?" β
Yingyun looked at her pocket watch and said, "It's two o'clock." β
"It's coming," the emperor looked up at the dark sky, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "Empress, look there!" β
Ying Yun looked in the direction of his finger, only to see a meteor in the far southwest, which quickly hid in the mountains like a bolt of lightning.
"Shooting stars?" Yingyun said in surprise: "There is actually a meteor tonight, how did you know about it, Your Majesty?" β
The emperor said: "Qin Tianjian watched the stars at night, and deduced for several months before he realized that there was such a spectacle tonight. β
Ying Yun was puzzled: "The concubine heard that the meteor fell, it seems to be a bad omen?" β
The ancient emperors were the most taboo about the stars, so they called the meteor a broom star, and said that it was a disaster star, but Ying Yun looked at the emperor's expression, but he did not shy away from it at all.
The emperor smiled and said: "The landing of the star is not necessarily a fierce appearance, just like this time, Qin Tianjian replied that this is the fall of the auspicious star, which coincides with the elimination of the epidemic in the south and the stability of the war in the north, which is the auspicious fortune of the country and the people." β
Ying Yun smiled and sighed, alas, the people of Qin Tianjian all relied on one mouth, and they made up black and white for a while, and everything would be fine if the emperor was happy.
