Liu Yi replied: "I went to see my teacher, I heard that you have been to the hotel, why don't you contact me directly if you have something?" ”

Tang Jie wrinkled his nose and said with some embarrassment: "I wanted to surprise you, so I went directly to the hotel, who knew that you would have gone out a long time ago." ”

"Oh, what's the surprise for me?" Liu Yi asked.

Tang Jie tilted his head and thought for a while, and said, "Forget it, it's too late now." ”

"Well, then I wish you a good night." Liu Yi deliberately pretended to cut off the call.

"Wait! You don't mean anything at all! Tang Jie hurriedly said: "I haven't finished my words yet, what are you doing in a hurry to go offline!" ”

"If you have something to say, just say it, or I'll go to dinner."

"You're such a boring person." Tang Jie said with some discouragement: "Actually, that's the case, I want to ask you out for a walk, I've been really bored at home for the past two days." ”

"When you were in Yaqiu, you were homesick every day, and you said you were bored just two days after you came back, why don't you spend time with your family?"

"My family is very busy, so it's nice to see each other once a day. The rest are butlers and servants, and it's really not interesting. Tang Jie said lazily.

"Where do you want to go? If it's too far away, forget it. Liu Yi said.

"I don't know, why don't we go...... What about fishing? Tang Jie thought for a long time before saying.

"Okay, let's go fishing." Liu Yi said immediately.

"Are you really going fishing?" Tang Jie asked rhetorically.

"Isn't that what you said? So decide, I'll wait for you at the hotel. After speaking, Liu Yi cut off the call at once.

Liu Yi knew that if he wasn't more decisive, Tang Jie might be able to grind for a night, so it was better to settle down quickly, so that she had no room for hesitation.

Since coming to the imperial capital, Liu Yi has found that Tang Jie's little daughter form that has been hidden has become more and more apparent, probably because he returned home.

Liu Yi remembered the conversation with Old Man Tang that night, and gradually understood why the old man had decided to send Tang Jie to Yaqiu in the first place.

An eldest lady like Tang Jie, sometimes she really needs someone to push her, otherwise she won't be able to show her true self.

Early the next morning, Tang Jie drove to the hotel to pick up Liu Yi, got in the car to take a look, and saw Tang Jie dressed outdoors, with all kinds of fishing and camping items filled the back seat.

"What are you doing here? Why did you bring so many things? Liu Yi asked in surprise.

"Fishing, of course! Don't you need to bring anything with you for fishing? Tang Jie said.

"But...... When I talk about fishing, I'm going to the fishing grounds in the city, not to the suburbs. ”

"What's so fun in the city, I'll take you to the place where you camped when you were a kid, and I used to go there every summer." Tang Jie said with some excitement.

Liu Yi didn't want to ruin her interest, so he had to say, "Okay, let's go!" ”

The two spent a day playing by a scenic lake in the suburbs, and when they returned to the hotel, it was almost midnight. dragged his tired footsteps out of the car, and now Liu Yi just wanted to fall asleep.

Tang Jie didn't plan to let it go, so he pulled Liu Yi's sleeve and asked, "Where are we going to play tomorrow?" ”

"Tomorrow? I want to sleep. Liu Yi replied listlessly.

"Then the day after tomorrow, let's go out the day after tomorrow." Tang Jie asked without giving up.

Liu Yi suddenly remembered that the day after tomorrow was the day after tomorrow to participate in the triumph ceremony, so he said: "The day after tomorrow, I want to participate in the triumph ceremony, and the teacher helped me get a few tickets." ”

"Triumphal ceremony? What's so fun about that? ”

"If you don't go, forget it, I'll go alone."

"No, I'm going too!" Tang Jie said: "That's it, I'll pick you up the day after tomorrow!" ”

On the wasteland on the outskirts of the prosperous capital, the endless sea of green grass is endless, as if a huge green carpet covers the earth.

It is rarely visited by people, so the natural ecology is quite well preserved, and it is a paradise for all kinds of plants and birds. Today, however, the wasteland is crowded with people, and the crowd of people from Fanjing, hundreds of miles away, has crowded this wasteland to the brim.

All kinds of vehicles are lined up on the wasteland, and if you look down from the sky, it looks like a huge picture of flowers.

Many of the people who came to watch the ceremony were family units, young and old. People took out tents and carpets from their cars, spread them out on the grass, ate and drank all kinds of things, chatted and waited for the arrival of the ceremony, as happy as an outing.

In order to welcome the grand ceremony of the triumphant return of the 9th Fleet, Fanjing also deliberately took a three-day holiday, the purpose of which was to let more people attend this ceremony and welcome the return of the soldiers with the greatest enthusiasm.

There were still a few hours before the ceremony, but hundreds of thousands of people had already arrived in the wilderness, turning this usually unvisited place into a big amusement and a big bazaar.

The business people were moved by the wind and set up their stalls early, eating, drinking and having fun, just like a festival.

"Haha...... It's a lively day! ”

"It's just that so many people came, fortunately we came early, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to occupy a good position."

"Wife, I'm going to buy food, what do you want to eat?"

People are noisy and giggling, making the wasteland no longer what it usually looks like, and it is conceivable that a lot of garbage will be produced here after the ceremony, and the environmental protection department will have a headache again.

Unlike these noisy and noisy citizens, on the other side of the wilderness there were a large number of soldiers waiting in a queue, all of them stationed in the imperial capital and on the tracks.

Since two days ago, the army has been gathering here to welcome the return of the 9th Fleet. Since it was a triumphal ceremony for the fleet, how could it be done without the welcome of the army, and for this reason the military top brass made a decision that everyone except those who could not leave their posts must come to this ceremony.

After all, these people didn't necessarily welcome the return of the 9th Fleet, but the emperor would be present at this ceremony, and in order to make His Majesty the emperor happy, he did not hesitate to mobilize the people.

Some officers complained a lot about this, and they thought they could take three days off, but they didn't know that they were made to blow the wind in the wilderness, and it was inevitable that they would have resentment in their hearts.

In addition to hundreds of thousands of troops and citizens, various powerful dignitaries in the imperial capital also participated in the ceremony, although they did not mix with the citizens and the army.

To this end, the high-level officials of the imperial capital have specially prepared hundreds of large and small floating viewing platforms, so that these people can sit comfortably on the viewing platform to participate in the ceremony.

This viewing platform is very similar to the viewing platform in the park, except that it is much larger, with small viewing platforms that can accommodate at least a few hundred people, while large ones can accommodate thousands of people.

These viewing platforms have anti-gravity engines that can levitate in the air for long periods of time, and there are facilities such as restaurants on the viewing platforms, so you can stay all day.

Liu Yi and Tang Jie were already relatively late when they arrived, and the two of them were surprised when they saw that so many people had gathered in the wasteland.

"Oh my God, there are so many people!" Tang Jie exclaimed.

Liu Yi was also dumbfounded, only to see that the wasteland was full of dense vehicles, and there were many colorful tents, where was the triumphal ceremony, it was simply a super-large village market.

Seeing that the vehicle could no longer move forward, the two had to park the car in a relatively secluded place and walk to the predetermined viewing platform.

Tang Jie complained as he walked: "If we knew it was so crowded, we should have gone with my parents, they have permission to fly directly to the viewing platform." ”

In Fanjing, a place where flying machines are strictly controlled, only those who have obtained special permission can use flying machines of a certain size, and the Tang family, as the most important arms supplier of the imperial side, therefore has such a license.

"No way, I didn't expect so many people to come, it seems that everyone likes to be lively." Liu Yi smiled bitterly.

The two walked for nearly an hour while talking, and finally found the reserved viewing platform.

The white circular viewing platform is suspended at a height of several tens of meters, and you have to take a small levitation lifter to get up. After waiting for a while, a white ball descended from the viewing platform and landed firmly on the ground after more than ten seconds.

Liu Yi and Tang Jie hurried over, and when they came closer, they found that the white ball was actually about the size of a house.

The hatch opened, and an operator appeared at the hatch, saw Liu Yi and the two coming, and said with a smile: "Please show the gift certificate." ”

Liu Yi called up the electronic gift certificate issued to him by Yu Wensong, and the operator scanned it with a scanner and listened to "Di!" The voice prompt sounded: "Verified correct, welcome." ”

The operator said to the two, "Please, two." ”

Liu Yi and Tang Jie walked into the big white ball, inside was a circular space, along the ball wall was a circle of seats, the two of them found a place to sit down casually, waiting to go to the viewing platform.

After a while, several more passengers came, and the operator, seeing that no one would be coming for the time being, walked into the cabin, closed the door, and pressed the rise button.

The white spherical lift cabin "swished" into the air, and flew towards the viewing platform, where there were several circular openings under the platform, and the elevator cabin could just enter the hole.

The elevator cabin entering the round hole continued to rise, and after a few seconds, it came to a steady stop, and as soon as the hatch opened, the bright sunlight immediately shone in.

Liu Yi and Tang Jie walked out of the cabin, only to see a rather spacious terrace in front of them, and when they walked to the edge of the platform, they could look into the distance, with an excellent view of the green and vast wilderness.

Turning all the way along the fence of the platform, the stepped viewing seats appeared in front of him, and at this time there were already many people sitting, looking at the clothes were people with some status, compared with them, Liu Yi was the most ordinary one.

Tang Jie pointed to the seat on the highest floor and said, "Our seat should be at the top, let's go." "Genius remembers the first three or five in a second
