Chapter 181: Chinese New Year's Eve

Chinese New Year's Eve has arrived.

What is Huaxia? The beauty of uniforms is called the flower; The etiquette is great, so it is called summer.

This ancient nation that has been occupying the pinnacle of human civilization since its birth in the flood period on the earth, although it has experienced all kinds of disasters and declined several times in the long years, it has always survived and multiplied tenaciously, and since entering the interstellar age, it has risen and grown rapidly, until it has become the first power in the Anthropocene world again, which has lasted thousands of years without wavering!

Today's Chinese civilization not only has an unrivaled influence in the Anthropocene realm, but even the entire known Xinghai realm is a powerful civilization that many old intelligent races have to look up to!

Spring Festival: The first day of the first lunar month, commonly known as the New Year, traditionally lasts from the end of the year on Chinese New Year's Eve and the first day of the first month of the new year to the 15th Lantern Festival of the first month. Counting the history of the Earth Age, this traditional national festival that has lasted for more than 10,000 years is still one of the most important events in the empire.

The vast Milky Way, hundreds of thousands of administrative planets, countless overseas dominions, vassal states, resource development star fields, barbarian colonial bases, and even the entire Anthropocene realm, and even those alien civilizations that have befriended the Chinese Empire, are all immersed in the joy of the festival at this moment. The strong influence and penetration of Chinese civilization can be seen from this!

On the morning of the same day, Qin Qiyuan, the supreme consul of the empire, issued a New Year's proclamation, greeting trillions of imperial citizens through the interstellar network, and then the New Year's state banquet, where many military and political dignitaries, foreign envoys in China, representatives of autonomous territories, and celebrities from all walks of life all changed into gorgeous classical Hanfu and gathered together to celebrate the festival!

At night, the bustling downtown area on the surface of the planet. Lanterns are decorated with lanterns, fire trees and silver flowers, and countless men, women and children are dressed in festive costumes. They all walked out of the house. Play in a group. The streets are bustling with people and laughter, and officials have relaxed the ban on environmental protection on the night, allowing traditional fireworks to add to the festive atmosphere.

Huge fireworks burst into the sky one after another, bursting one after another in a deafening explosion, illuminating the dark night sky with brilliant brilliance.

As time went on, the crowds on the streets grew. The carnival has gradually entered the high and tide. At that extremely high in the air, a huge red peony flower suddenly bloomed, and almost half of the night sky was plated with a brilliant red!

The peony flowers ripple with a magnificent golden-red light, which looks brilliant and extraordinary! The body of the flower rotates lightly in the air, and from time to time a little bit of golden light escapes from the petals, circling and dancing in the night sky for a while, and then slowly disappears!

More than ten seconds later, another pure white and flawless lily appeared, followed by a crimson hibiscus flower...... Later, the whole sky was filled with all kinds of flowers!

In low-earth orbit, thousands of warships follow a fixed trajectory. The giant 3D laser projectors on the belly of the ship are all turned on, and the sea of flowers in the sky is their credit.

When the sea of flowers fades away. Hundreds of bright red Chinese knots more than ten kilometers long appeared in the sky, and the complex and exquisite knots faintly shimmered with a faint golden glow, floating leisurely in the night sky, bringing out the gorgeous bright red tracks!

Immediately afterwards, a bronze tripod image that is dozens of kilometers high, simple and elegant, with a heavy sense of vicissitudes of life, is also presented in front of everyone's eyes, and then the Great Wall, the Temple of Heaven, and the Terracotta Army...... After the end, even the images of legendary mythical beasts such as the Green Dragon, the White Tiger, the Glutton, and Ji Meng also appeared one by one!

"It's really good!"

On the observation deck at the top of the pyramid in the Temple of the Silent Star, Xiao Junling leaned on the soft recliner, looked at the beautiful scenery in the sky, and said with emotion.

Speaking of which, even in his previous life, because of his profession, he spent most of his time on military bases and battlefields, and he had only seen a New Year's carnival like the imperial capital once or twice. Now I see it again, but it is no longer human.

Zhou Yun didn't know what to do, and smiled softly: "You are the first time to come to the imperial capital, of course you will feel a little novel, and if you see too much, it will be like that!" Nothing out of the ordinary! ”

Zhou Meng next to him personally sent the cut Huoyun flesh into his mouth, and he took advantage of her unpreparedness to bite her slender jade finger like a tender onion, causing her to make a coquettish sound.

Yu Xin'er gently pinched him, and handed over a glass of fragrant juice.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, since Xichen Qinglan had been in retreat, only the butlers Lan Ya and Yu Xin'er spent it with him, and not long after the Zhou Meng sisters rushed over from home, they didn't seem lonely.

The night breeze was blowing slowly, slightly cool, but all the women here were all extraordinary, so they naturally didn't care. As for him, who is still regarded as a wounded, he is covered with a thick brocade coat, the temperature control system on the recliner has also been turned on, and there are a dazzling array of melon and fruit snacks on the square table in front of him. He didn't need to do it himself at all.

"After the New Year, I'm going to follow my teacher to the south!" Xiao Junling said slowly.

For his decision, the girls were a little surprised, and Yu Xin'er questioned: "It's not an ordinary danger there, you are like this now...... Will it work? ”

"It's nothing, when my strength is fully restored, it won't be a problem!" He replied.

As for the situation of his own injuries, he had already given them a little bit of the bottom, so all the women had now let go of the hidden worries in their hearts.

Lan Ya objected: "But His Highness will never agree!" My sister thinks that you should stay in the Silent Star Temple and cultivate hard, and wait until your strength is enough before going to the battlefield! ”

Zhou Meng's eyes rolled and tried to ask, "Don't you want to stay in the imperial capital?" Is it because of those guys? But the front line is actually more dangerous, so I think ......"

"I've decided!" Xiao Junling repeated again.

His voice was not high, but it already had a faint and unquestionable taste, which made the girls who still wanted to persuade them subconsciously swallow back the words that came to their mouths.

The temperament of the teenagers has always been tolerant and easy-going, and except for matters of principle, they will basically follow them. I won't care too much about some of their usual harmless scheming methods.

But that doesn't mean he doesn't have the initiative and the courage to make a decision about something. I will never allow the people around me to have doubts anymore!

As a figure who once held military power. If you don't even have that decision. Then he can't get into the position of the master of an army!

He made such a decision not on the impulse of a hot head, but after careful consideration. As the saying goes, "it is difficult to raise a 10,000-year-old pine in a flower pot", always stay in a comfortable and comfortable environment, even if the qualifications are excellent, it is impossible to grow into a real super strong!

Moreover, the pool of water in the imperial capital is too deep, and it is indeed not very suitable for him now. After Xichen Qinglan, who had been taking care of him, left. Those ill-intentioned forces have no scruples, and they don't know how many conspiracies they have to come up with!

Even if Qin Yayu, who is of unknown origin, has enough ability and is willing to spend time protecting him, as a manly man, it is impossible to always leave his safety to others to control! Taking refuge in some big names is just an expedient move, not a long-term solution!

Even if it is Xichen Qinglan, it is impossible to protect him for a lifetime, and a man's road can only be walked by himself after all!

Zhou Yun bit her lower lip and said softly, "Since you have made a decision!" Then they won't say anything! It's just that...... We want to go with you. All right? ”

"It's not easy, is it?" Xiao Junling said,

"I went to talk to Governor Wei Zhenhua this morning. Here's his proposal! I also thought it was feasible, so he used his power to arrange a suitable position for me in the army. But it's just me, and if I want to add a few of you, I guess it's very difficult! ”

Originally, with the connections of the Zhou family, it was nothing to arrange a few people in the Imperial Legion, as long as the position was not too high, it would be fine. But his identity and mission in the army in the future are kept secret, if these delicate beauties are also involved, people with a heart can see the problem at a glance, and they are afraid that they will not be able to do anything at that time!

Zhou Meng thought about it, but he was still a little unwilling, and said: "People are also suspended in the army, and it shouldn't be a problem to say hello to those people when the time comes!" Anyway, no matter where you go, don't even think about leaving me! ”

"That's it!" Zhou Yun hurriedly echoed,

"If you leave, what if the old man in the family is stubborn and insists on sending his sister out of Lu? At that time, you were out of reach in the army, and I was afraid that you couldn't do anything, so it was better to let her leave with you! ”

"This ...... All right! I'll think about it! Xiao Junling finally said.

What she said is also right, she is not in the imperial capital, and there are many people who covet the two sisters, and when the time comes, I am afraid that there will be some trouble, so it is better to let them leave this place of right and wrong together.

Zhou Meng was afraid that he would be unhappy, so he explained in a low voice: "After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there will be a large-scale ancestor worship ceremony in the family headquarters, and the disgusting prince will also participate in it at that time, and a press conference will be held the day after the ceremony to announce this political marriage!" So...... People can't help it! ”

"Ancestor worship ceremony?" Xiao Junling frowned, of course he understood the importance of the ancestor worship ceremony of an ancient family like the Zhou family, Zhou Jiyuan planned to do so, it seems that he really wanted the future Fusang Emperor to be his grandson-in-law!

At that time, he showed his strength to restore this hole card, and it is estimated that it will be difficult for the owner of the family to change his mind, so ......

"By the way, since it's an ancestor worship ceremony, am I eligible to participate?" He asked suddenly.

"Isn't it? You...... Do you really want to participate? The sisters were amazed and delighted.

According to the practice of the Chinese Empire, family worships ancestors, and outsiders are not eligible to participate in such important ceremonies, unless they are relatives. Xiao Junling is willing to let go for them, doesn't that mean that he openly acknowledges the relationship between the sisters and him?

Lan Ya's face froze, and she hurriedly reminded: "Do you have to think clearly?" Your Highness, I'm afraid she will be unhappy when she learns the truth! ”

"Don't worry! I just planned for the two of them, but I never thought of being the son-in-law of the Zhou family! He gently grabbed Yu Xin'er's hand and explained confidently:

"In short, this matter will be resolved satisfactorily, and when the time comes...... Then you will know the way! ”

Yu Xin'er, who originally had a resentful look on her face, let go of her thoughts and smiled again.

Seeing that the time had passed and the girls were tired, Xiao Junling proposed that they each go back to their rooms to rest.

When Yu Xin'er and Lan Ya left one after another, he said to Sister Zhou Meng: "Are you going to go home, or are you just resting here until dawn?" I'll ask the maid to arrange a room for you. ”

It's just that the two girls didn't say anything, and a different color slowly appeared in the eyes that looked at him, and the two beautiful faces that captivated the country and the city also became red as blood at some point.

"What's wrong?" He finally realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere and asked suspiciously.

Zhou Yun said hesitantly: "Actually...... We feel that to solve the problem, there is still ...... There's a better ...... Way! ”

"Oh? What is it? ”

Zhou Meng bit his red lip hard, suddenly hugged him tightly, plucked up his courage, and said with difficulty in his ear: "Tonight...... You...... Get us! (To be continued......)
