Chapter 016: Red Tape

Sima Hongyan was really not interested in this kind of child's bickering game, but this Liao Yunhan was really vicious, Sima Hongyan couldn't help but stop, turned his head and looked at her coldly.

At this time, a person next to him interjected and said, "Miss Liao, it's a bit too much for you to talk like this." Although the person is no longer alive, General Zhenguo has made great contributions to Yanling, how can you speak ill words and humiliate his descendants so much? ”

Sima Hongyan and Liao Yunhan both turned their heads to look, but it was a man in blue next to him who spoke.

Liao Yunhan saw this person and said angrily: "Li Siyu, when did you start speaking for this kind of woman who doesn't understand etiquette, righteousness and shame?" Saying that, his mouth was slightly nu, showing a weak and pitiful appearance.

Sima Hongyan turned around and walked quickly to Liao Yunhan. Liao Yunhan was startled, took two steps back, and exclaimed, "You, what are you doing?" ”

Sima Hongyan pointed at the tip of Liao Yunhan's nose and said sharply: "If you dare to keep your mouth dry, believe it or not, I will slap you with a big mouth?" At this time, Sima Hong's eyes were cold and domineering, so frightened that Liao Yunhan didn't dare to speak.

The others around him came up to persuade everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, the hour is not early, please hurry up and get on the stage!" ”

Liao Yun flicked his sleeves coldly and walked away quickly, and the two women hurriedly followed, without glancing at Sima Hongyan again.

At this time, that Li Siyu walked up to Sima Hongyan and said softly: "Miss Sima, don't care, although this Miss Liao is mean, she is still not a bad person." ”

"It's your business!" Sima Hongyan was not angry, unceremoniously rejected him, and turned away.

Li Siyu was stunned on the spot, and after a while, he shook his head and walked forward slowly.

Ascend to the viewing platform, if you really climb high and overlook, you can see the capital of Yanling.

Sima Hongyan didn't bother to look at these, and under the guidance of the palace maid, he sat in his place, rubbing his legs that were numb from going up the stairs.

In a short time, all the ministers and their families arrived, and hundreds of tables were full. However, this viewing platform is really big enough, and so many people gather here, and there is no crowding at all. Listening to the three cannons on the stage, the eunuch shouted loudly: "The prince has arrived!" The civil and military ministers left their seats one after another and knelt down towards the main platform.

Sima Hongyan didn't like to kneel, so he simply squatted down, anyway, his dress was wide, but it was no different from kneeling.

I saw a number of princes and princesses, dressed in golden costumes, walking up from under the main stage, and everyone's demeanor and movements showed the royal style and graceful atmosphere. Among these princes and princesses, Sima Hongyan only recognized the second prince and the ninth prince, and the others were all new to each other.

As soon as the princes appeared, the hundreds of officials and family members below knelt down and saluted, and shouted: "Your Royal Highness, the princess Chitose Chitose Chitose!" ”

Sima Hongyan's eyes stole and said in his heart: "Good guy! The emperor is such a capable old man, and there are no less than dozens of sons and daughters. There are more than a dozen sons alone, is he not idle every night? ”

Waiting for the princes and princesses to sit down, the officials did not get up. I heard the eunuch say loudly: "The emperor has arrived!" As soon as the words stopped, I heard hundreds of war drums "dong dong" beating at the same time, and the sound was extremely huge.

A man wearing a golden crown and a dragon robe led a number of graceful and luxurious women onto the main stage. When the man sat down on the dragon chair in the center, everyone present including the prince knelt down to him at the same time and shouted, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

I have always heard about the emperor since I was a child, and this time a real emperor is in front of him, Sima Hongyan is extremely curious, and secretly looks up, what does the emperor look like in the stands.

Unexpectedly, it was not an old man, but an extremely kind-looking middle-aged uncle, who looked like he was in his forties. Smiling, looking at the people kneeling on and off the stage. After everyone finished saluting, he raised his arm slightly and said, "Zhong Aiqing is flat!" ”

Everyone shouted again: "Emperor Xie!" Then he got up from the ground.

This emperor is none other than the current Emperor Yanzhen.

The smile on Emperor Yan Zhen's face remained unchanged, and he said kindly: "All Aiqing, please take a seat." Today's Chung Yeung Festival is for you to come to a family banquet, not to discuss national affairs. You don't have to be polite! ”

Sima Hongyan snorted lightly, and said secretly: "It's fake, we all knelt down before we said anything without being polite." It seems that all the emperors are so hypocritical! After pondering for a while, he said in his heart: "Not only the emperor, don't those leaders in modern times also have this virtue!" ”

When everyone had returned to their seats, a eunuch came up and read aloud with an edict. He read it for a long time, but Sima Hongyan didn't understand a word. She couldn't help but think to herself: "It seems that the TV is not right, what is this babbling saying, why can't you understand a word?" ”

However, this edict is still very long, and as he read it, Sima Hongyan couldn't help but yawn.

Suddenly, someone next to him whispered, "Don't worry, I'll finish reading it soon!" Sima Hongyan was startled, and looked sideways, but it was the Li Siyu he had seen at the gate of the palace just now.

Sima Hongyan didn't have a good impression of the sons and ladies of these eunuchs' houses, glared at him, and said again: "It's your!" ”

This Li Siyu frowned, and said, "Why do you always talk with that girl?" Where is it like the daughter of a town general's family? ”

Sima Hongyan sneered and said, "Do I have anything to do with you?" It's talking a bunch of nonsense I don't understand, and I'm not allowed to get sleepy? ”

"You don't understand?" Li Siyu was stunned for a moment, and said: "This is the emperor's ode, commending the ministers and praising the world." How can it be nonsense? ”

"What I don't understand is! Even if you can understand it, it is probably a bunch of useless soup. I wondered, why is it meaningless for leaders to make long speeches? Sima Hongyan couldn't help but complain.

Li Siyu glanced at her helplessly, and said slowly: "Then you have to feast your ears today." ”

Before Sima Hongyan understood, the eunuch finished reading. Everyone bowed down again and shouted in unison: "The emperor is sage!" Then another eunuch came up, took another copy of the speech, and began to read it.

Seeing that Sima Hongyan's brows were twisted together, Li Siyu smiled: "This is not that long, this time it is the ode of Master Li of Xiangguo, it is estimated that it is easier to understand." ”

He overestimated Sima Hongyan a little, let alone understand, he couldn't even hear what he was saying. Her eyes were already fighting, and she was dazed and sleepy. It is estimated that after a while, she will have to fall asleep on the table.

Everyone listened respectfully on such occasions, and it would be a great sin of disrespect if she did fall asleep on the table.

Li Siyu looked at Sima Hongyan's head and connected the dots, her eyes were blurred, and she was startled, she was really afraid that she wouldn't be able to hold on and fall asleep. Hurriedly whispered: "Miss Sima, you, you can be vigilant." You don't really want to fall asleep, do you? Feed! Feed! You don't want to die? ”

As he spoke, Sima Hongyan sobered up slightly, sat up straight, and tried to open his eyes. Li Siyu breathed a sigh of relief.

Unexpectedly, before a short while, Sima Hongyan's head continued to fall downward, and he looked like he was about to fall asleep. Li Siyu hurriedly called out to her: "Miss Sima! Miss Sima! Otherwise, shall I talk to you? You must not fall asleep. ”

reminded himself three times and twice that Sima Hongyan was embarrassed to speak ill of him again. Qiang Jie raised his head and asked him, "What can you tell me?" ”

Li Siyu thought about it and said, "How about I explain the content of the ode to you?" This Ode to Master Li is really well written! The writing is no less than everyone in the world! As he spoke, he looked at Sima Hongyan with admiration.

"Cut!" Who knew that Sima Hongyan said disdainfully: "You tell me this, what's the difference between singing a lullaby to me?" Where is it written? I think what Master Li said is simply bullshit. ”

Hearing this, Li Siyu was shocked, glaring at Sima Hongyan, with anger on his face.

Sima Hongyan saw his big reaction and wondered, "I said that you still don't like to listen to him?" ”

After a while, Li Siyu said angrily: "Master Li, he, he is my father!" ”
