Chapter 432: The Grand Gathering Begins
At night, the festival begins.
This is a relatively empty place located in Shanglin Yuan, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people, even so, the scene was paralyzed at this moment, and countless people poured over, especially in Qianshou District, which can be described as a sea of people, crowding the entire area.
Even the wealthy areas are overcrowded.
This is a rare event, a rare event for the emperor to appear in front of so many people, and it is also a grand event with many novelties, even if the sky is slightly dark, no one wants to leave.
Under the illumination of the blazing white light, all kinds of things can be seen in the streets, and the appearance of this scene makes many people who have not been to Shanglin Yuan surprised.
Tomorrow it will be dark, but in less than an hour, the whole world will light up, and it will be extremely bizarre.
Such a scene also happened in an open place, the day was dark, only felt a flash in the sky, suddenly the whole venue was daylight, no one knew what happened, some uninformed people were directly frightened to the ground, and did not dare to get up for a long time.
Of course, some people think that this is God's favor, or that the emperor himself came and moved the heavens, so he made an exception and appeared in the daytime.
But a lot of people know this is.
"This is the headlight of Shanglin Garden, which can shine on the sun and the moon."
Someone looked up and said, full of pride, as if he had brought it all to him, but everyone knew that it was an exaggeration, but it also showed the peculiarity of the lamp.
The open space that can accommodate tens of thousands of people immediately became as bright as day, and a few people had seen such a scene, and for a moment there were voices of surprise, and they praised the wonders of the forest garden.
Of course, even people who have lived a little longer in Shanglin Yuan have seen such a scene for the first time, if there is a street lamp in Shanglin Yuan, it is just an ordinary lamp, and it can only illuminate the road, but the difference at this moment is that no one can tell whether it is a lamp of night or day.
If a man looks up, his eyes will be blind, and he will be like a round of scorching sun shining on the earth.
"Shiya, have you ever seen such a lamp? I'll tell you, it's just a very ordinary thing in Shanglin Yuan. ”
The son of the Feng family came up to Shiya and said sarcastically, which showed his aura.
Yes, he has been in Shanglin Yuan for so long, he has regarded Shanglin Yuan as his home, and he is also glad that he chose at the beginning, and he is glad that he resolutely came here after eliminating the opposition of the clan.
"This lamp is also young master, no, it was made by Li Zhao in your mouth, but it is very strange."
The son of the Feng family was a student of Li Zhao when he entered the hall, but he didn't dare to call him by his name.
"It's Li Zhao again!"
Shiya was shy, not too surprised, but a slight discoloration appeared on her face, and it was just a moment.
"Miss, I didn't expect that Young Master Li Zhao still has such ability, this is my Great Qin Blessing, when the time comes, Miss, you will become Mrs. Li, no, Mrs. Win, what an honor it will be!"
Xiaoting was shocked and full of excitement.
But when it fell on the young lady, she frowned.
Shiya raised her hand lightly, pulled Xiaoting's sleeve, and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, you know me, even if you are outstanding, how can I wish?" ”
Xiaoting kept her mouth shut and showed a look of displeasure, of course she knew what Miss was thinking, but how could such a capable person not move the heart of a beautiful woman?
Miss is too persistent in affection.
"Xiaoting just shut up!" Xiaoting covered her mouth, but was attracted by a commotion, and followed the voice, her eyes were full of curiosity.
I saw that in the middle of the open space, there was a huge house, and I don't know if it was a house, but it was wrapped in a red coarse cloth, which was wide enough to cover a hundred people.
At this time, the cover is slowly being pulled apart, revealing the tip of the iceberg inside.
It is a high column with a flat roof and a staircase below.
Some people have seen such a building, because Shanglinyuan Hotel is such a structure.
With the opening of the cover, the whole house is presented in front of everyone, no, it is not a house, this is an empty outline, open on all sides, four pillars are towering, the top of the column is the top, all kinds of decorations, very magnificent.
This is not what everyone is surprised of, what is surprising is that on the flat roof, there are suddenly flashing lights, like lightning flashing, extremely dazzling, and then under the four pillars are illuminated so that nothing can hide, which can be described as gorgeous.
But what is a bit flawed is that in such a luxurious place, there are two black and unknown things, which are really eye-catching.
"Miss, look, it must be the stage of the event, it is really magnificent."
"Something special."
But it can be seen that Shiya is not interested, perhaps, her heart is not on this.
"Impressive! This is carefully created by the young master, especially for the grand event. ”
The son of the Feng family came over again and explained.
Shiya was a little numb when she heard Li Zhao's words for a day, but she just smiled politely, the more Li Zhao's excellence was shown, the more Miss Wang Gong fell in love with him, but he was not a good couple, in case of his three wives and four concubines, he did not have to stay alone in the empty room.
It's not what she wants, she likes to be in a binary position, she likes to be single-minded, she likes to be affectionate.
Just as everyone was talking about the stage of the event, on the first floor of the pavilion, two people were talking quietly.
"My lord, the villain has sent people to find out the news everywhere, Your Majesty's imperial drive has arrived, and it is at the top of the imperial road, but Your Majesty has never appeared, and Father-in-law Shang has entered Luanjia from time to time, and he is very vigilant, we have not found useful information, do you want the villain to take a risk?"
"Hmm!"
The adult nodded, his eyes scanning the open space below, especially the towering platform of the event.
"No, since the grand event is His Majesty's will, he will definitely take the stage, and then he will naturally know whether the rumors are true or not, and don't forget that he has to announce important things."
"Your Excellency is saying that Your Majesty will issue an edict at the grand event, give Li Zhaoying the surname, and let him supervise the country?"
"Yes!"
"Then do our people want to act in advance?"
"No, we need to see again to see if Your Majesty has really reached the place where his life is in danger."
"Good!"
The two only whispered for a few moments and left, and at this time the grand meeting officially began.
In the VIP area, the three princes and nine secretaries were in line, standing on both sides of the royal road, and other officials also arrived early, followed by the three princes and nine secretaries, surrounding the entire imperial road, leaving only a straight red carpet, leading directly to the stage of the grand event.
The beginning of the event was the arrival of the Emperor.
At the top of the imperial road, the emperor moved slowly, escorted by dozens of guards, full of might.
When he arrived at the side of the third prince and nine qing, the emperor's car stopped, and Yingzheng walked down from the emperor's car, but at this moment, the emperor seemed to have changed from before he came to Lin Yuan.
The whole person looked sick, his face was haggard, his spirit was sluggish, and he even walked stiffly step by step, for fear that he might fall down at any time.
If it weren't for Shang Xin's support, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to take a step.
"Your Majesty!" Seeing such a situation, the officials were shocked, and their faces became sad, and they hurriedly bowed their hands, "See Your Majesty." ”
All the officials saluted in unison, some voices were sad, that may be true sadness, some people are also sad, and there may be pretense, but in any case, the atmosphere is in mourning at the moment.
Sure enough, as rumored, His Majesty was in a dying situation, and he was so powerless to walk at the moment, but to everyone's relief, His Majesty seemed a little excited at this moment, and his body trembled all the time.
"Get up!" Ying Zheng raised his hand with difficulty, trying his best to straighten himself, but the rickety body did not allow it, but he still held on, and that posture was completely dying.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Take your seats!"
Ying Zheng ordered everyone to take a seat, and everyone took a seat.
Ying Zheng didn't care about this, his eyes eagerly swept back and forth, but even if his stiff body turned around, he couldn't see Li Zhao's figure.
"What about Li Zhao?" Ask Shang Xin.
Shang Xin arched his hand and responded: "Your Majesty, General Li will be here later." ”
Ying Zheng showed a slight hint of anger, even so, he couldn't see his anger, but was replaced by an indescribable weakness, everyone learned that His Majesty is no longer the majesty of the past, and some are just lingering.
"On such an important day, he didn't come early, what kind of system!" He scolded angrily, but his tone was calm and tinged with expectation.
Yes, it is the expectation, tonight, is the time when he and his son recognize each other, and it is the moment when he and Ah Fang's common son truly recognize each other.
Although he was unable to reconnect with Ah Fang, Ah Fang gave him an even more precious gift, their son.
Shang Xin heard the unusual taste, and hurriedly knelt down: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, General Li also wants to come early, but he has specially prepared some programs for His Majesty to have a unique event tonight." ”
"Oh! A special show? What is the program? ”
Ying Zheng was curious, his stiff body turned around, and he looked directly at Shang Xin.
"The slave doesn't know what the program is, General Li said it was music."
"Music?"
Everyone listened sideways.
"The Book of Songs" is a popular thing in Daqin, and it has the style and elegance to sing the six arts. Wind is a folk thing, and elegance is the music of the court.
They have already heard the court music, it is not new, there is no need to prepare it deliberately, and it has delayed Your Majesty.
"He's got a heart."
Ying Zheng's anger eased slightly, and he didn't blame anymore, but he didn't show much interest, as everyone thought, Ya is just for drinking and enjoying himself, and he can't get on the stage.
"That's it! Let it be, and let's get started! ”
"No!"
Shang Xin got up and bowed his hand, and walked to the stage of the grand event, which was the center of the entire grand event, and he waved his hand lightly, and someone walked inside.
After a while, there was a sudden screeching sound.
