The next day, in the evening.

A busy year has finally come to an end.

The palace routinely holds the "New Year's Banquet", divided into internal banquet and external banquet, the internal banquet is presided over by the queen, after the death of the eldest grandson queen, Li Er did not seal the queen, the internal banquet was simply canceled by no one to preside, but the external banquet is still the same, and it is more grand than in previous years, the princes and generals in the court, and the dignitaries and nobles invite a lot.

After the opening remarks, everyone pushed the cup and changed the lamp, staggered and staggered, so lively, the palace maid shuttled among them, constantly presenting drinks and dishes, like a butterfly, it was very good-looking.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Li Er came out to speak, all of which were old rules, everyone was accustomed to it, sitting upright and listening carefully, but in fact, he was outside the spirit.

After an enthusiastic speech, Li Er was not dedicated, thinking that the Tang Dynasty had been established for more than ten years, and now the population has doubled, and it is not enough to have enough food and clothing, at least the common people can barely eat enough, this is compared with the war period of Yi Zi and food, it is like heaven, and the territory is more than doubled.

In love, Li Er couldn't help but chant aloud-

Twilight view oblique palace, gorgeous Qi Palace.

The cold leaves the winter snow, and the warmth brings in the spring breeze.

Step-rich Shumeisu, coiled flower roll candle red.

Celebrate the new year and welcome and send off all night.

"Good!"

"Great goodness!"

The civil and military officials couldn't help but applaud and praised from the bottom of their hearts.

The speech just now was just a cliché, and everyone didn't think so, pretending to cooperate and listen, but this poem is really good and convincing.

The poem uses a series of dynamic words such as "words, go, bring, enter, Shu, and volume", which are eloquent, appropriate, natural, fresh and readable, and are used to decorate the Fang Hall and Qi Palace with the sunset oblique light, and the "Nianhua" to dress up the Fang Hall and Qi Palace more brilliantly to point out that the emperor is in the palace on Chinese New Year's Eve, hinting at the theme, giving people a sense of grandeur.

Li Er heard the heartfelt applause, more and more happy, after raising the glass, everyone drank heavily, couldn't help but be a little drunk, worried about gaffes, did not dare to drink again, but the interest did not decrease, and asked: "You are all my humerus, the world's talents, the festive speech, it is better to write a poem, for the world's wealth, for the Tang Dynasty Guotai." ”

Everyone was worried when they heard it, not that they were afraid of composing poems, and the generals may be almost a few, but which of the Wenchen is not a masterpiece? Writing poetry is not easy to come by, but the problem is that it is too good, it will not steal the limelight of the saint, and if it is not good, it will damage one's own learning, which is a bit difficult to do.

The audience was silent, and the atmosphere was a little weird.

Li Er also thought that everyone was searching for words and sentences, pondered for a long time, and laughed: "Everyone, Aiqing, hurry up." ”

At this time, Kong Yingda suddenly said: "Shengshang, just now a song can be called a swan song, the Tang Dynasty is strong, the world is prosperous, I dare not offer ugliness, I have heard the poems of the King of Han for a long time to be the best in the world, maybe only the King of Han can be compared, it is better to let the King of Han make a poem, let me open my eyes." ”

These words are not only giving Qin Huaidao eye medicine, but also punishing his heart.

What is the King of Han who can be compared, isn't it implying that the King of Han is overpowering the saint?

As soon as the words fell, many people looked at Kong Yingda, which was meaningful.

Li Jing and the other princes looked cold, and Cheng Biting Jin scolded directly: "Nonsense, the King of Han is a military general, how can he make poetry?" You are a national priest of wine, a great Confucian, a model of scholars in the world, and you actually say that you are not as good as a military general, which is simply a shame for your Confucian saint. ”

The words were rude, but as sharp as a knife, piercing the other person's lungs.

"You?"

"Piff, it's not enough!"

Kong Yingda's face turned blue with anger, the dignified descendants of Confucius Sheng, can't really admit that they are inferior to the King of Han, right?

"What are you?" Cheng Yanjin still wanted to scold, but was pulled behind by Fang Xuanling.

Fang Xuanling was about to go down, but found that Li Er came over and didn't move sensibly.

Li Er looked at Kong Yingda, then looked around, and asked, "What about King Han?" ”

Of course, Qin Huaidao will be invited to such an important banquet, everyone just cared about drinking, and they didn't pay attention, and when they heard Li Er's reminder, they looked around, and they really didn't see anyone, they were all stunned, others were afraid that they wouldn't have a chance to participate, this one was good, he didn't come, what is this called?

Li Er's face became ugly, and he fell on Wang De.

Wang De hurriedly explained: "Shengshang, please send the old slave over in person, the king of Han said that Qinjiazhuang will hold a banquet, and the whole people will have fun, and try to find time to come." ”

Li Ermeng suddenly remembered that Wang De had reported, he was too busy at the time, he didn't think much about it, and said with some resentment: "I didn't expect King Han to be so busy that he couldn't even spare time for a banquet. ”

Everyone heard that Li Er's words were dissatisfied, but they didn't answer.

The princes were a little anxious and wanted to say a few words of intercession, but when they saw Li Jing's eyes, they nodded silently.

The Son of Heaven exported into a constitution, and he made a promise.

Wang De hurriedly went to arrange the trip, the banquet was interrupted, and acquaintances gathered together to communicate in a low voice, some were surprised, some were disdainful, some were sneering, some were worried, some were waiting to see the joke, and so on.

Not long after, an elite Yulinwei opened the way, and hundreds of officials followed in their respective carriages, and they went away in a mighty way, and the banquet was interrupted for the first time since the founding of the country, and he was transferred to the field.

The large army came to the entrance of Qinjiazhuang and stopped.

The gate was closed, surrounded by walls, and it looked like an independent fortress, revealing a bit of mystery and majesty under the moonlight, but there were bursts of laughter, which could be heard from afar.

Attracted by the laughter, everyone got out of the carriage and watched curiously.

"Nothing will happen, will it?" Cheng Yanjin walked up to Li Jing and asked in a low voice.

"I didn't hear that Qinjiazhuang was going to celebrate, that kid didn't know what the hell he was doing." Li Jing was also at a loss, and when he saw Fang Xuanling coming over, he asked in a low voice, "Have you heard what that kid is going to do?" ”

"I've been on duty for the past two days, and I'm so busy that I can't even take care of eating, so I haven't heard of it." Fang Xuanling also looked in the direction of Qinjiazhuang with a puzzled face, and the sky above was bright.

“biu——”

Suddenly, a sharp whistle sounded, and a bright light rose into the sky, sounding loudly in the sky, exploding countless fires, colorful and flying all over the sky.

Everyone was attracted by the strange light of the explosion and looked at each other.

"Protect the Holy One!"

Yu Linwei rushed over, surrounded Li Ertuan, and drew his sword to wait for him.

Li Er was also taken aback, in the end, he fought on the battlefield, he quickly stabilized his mind, thinking that he had decided to come over temporarily, Qin Huaidao had no reason to know in advance, set up an ambush, and then looked at the blank expressions of several princes, it was more and more sure that it was a misunderstanding, pushed away Yu Linwei and stepped forward, and said: "Xuan Ling, do you know what it was just now?" ”

Without waiting for Fang Xuanling to answer, several white rays of light rose into the sky, like lightning.

Immediately afterward, several clouds of colorful light exploded in the sky, colorful and gorgeous.

Fang Xuanling suddenly thought of something and said, "It's like fireworks." ”

Fireworks began in the Tang Dynasty and flourished in the Song Dynasty.

The fireworks in the Zhenguan period have just started, and they will let go of the meaning, no matter the scale, color or flying height, it is far from enough, Li Er has also heard of fireworks, looking at the fireworks blooming all over the sky, he couldn't help but say: "So high, so big, so many colors, is it the latest product developed by King Han?" ”

"King Han's means are very human, except for him, the minister can't think of a second one." Fang Xuanling said solemnly.

"It's so lively inside, it's like there are songs and dances, and the carriage is not suitable to go in, walk, walk in and have a look." Li Er said and walked forward.

"Go and call the door." Fang Xuanling looked at Cheng Yanjin.

Cheng Yanjin rushed forward knowingly and slammed the door hard.

After a while, the door opened a crack, and a person came out and said, "Everyone, Qinjiazhuang is closed tonight, and there are no guests, please go back." ”

"Go, let the King of Han come out to greet the Holy One." Cheng Yanjin scolded.

"Holy?" The other party looked at everyone with some doubts, his eyes fell on Li Er, the bright yellow dragon robe was on his body, this was exclusive to the saint, no one dared to wear it, so he hurriedly agreed and hurriedly went back.

Cheng Yanjin pushed open the door and said, "Holy Lord, it's cold outside, let's go in directly." ”

"It's okay, wait, you can't be a bad guest if you come here rashly." Li Er said, while looking inside, he saw a lot of fireworks rising into the sky in the depths of the green trees, and couldn't help but say: "Pharmacist, if this firework is used to warn, it is very useful in the vast grasslands and mountains, and the gunpowder in the imperial army is not enough." ”

"Holy Wisdom!" As a generation of military gods, Li Jing also found that fireworks are suitable for the battlefield, which is much stronger than the gunpowder used in the imperial army for warning.

Cheng Yanjin also sighed: "Saint, the minister remembers that the warning gunpowder in the army is fired at most ten zhang high, and it is difficult to find it at a distance, but this person's fireworks are nearly a hundred zhang high, and it explodes a large area, it is difficult not to be discovered, it is incredible." ”

"Go back and ask King Han." Li Jing proposed.

Li Er nodded, feeling a little melancholy in his heart, he didn't dare to use such a great talent, alas!

"Holy Lord, please look!" Fang Xuanling suddenly shouted.
