Chapter 132: Chinese New Year's Eve
The phoenix lantern is a special product of the cloud country, the structure is complicated, the volume is larger, the petals are like the feathers of the phoenix, when it is lit into the air, there is a phoenix figure flying on the lamp wall, so it is named.
Every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, the lantern festival in Cloud City attracts many people to come and watch, not only the locals of Cloud Country, but even people from other countries.
The lantern festival is not only a beautiful view, but also a treasure to trade. The scale of transactions is not as large as that of Yunhe Shangji, but there are many things that are not usually seen. Both cultivators and ordinary people in Yunguo are accustomed to buying some love things for themselves on this day to welcome the New Year.
At the beginning of the Yunhe business fair on the sixteenth day of the lunar month, they were still in Chiyun Mountain, and Ye Qingyu said that the lantern festival could not be missed again.
The round-faced little sister Wang is a master of weaving phoenix lanterns, and in the entire Lingxiao secret place, the phoenix lanterns made by her are the most beautiful, and Jiang Anan has been pestering her around this day.
On the central gimbal of Lingxiao's secret land, dozens of ready-made phoenix lanterns have been placed, and they can fly into the sky as long as they are lit on fire.
Senior Sister Xiao Wang flew through her ten fingers in front of a semi-finished product, manipulating the translucent silk thread, and her movements were dexterous. Jiang Anan moved a small wooden stool and sat next to him, with big flickering eyes, and he was fascinated.
"Senior Sister Wang, the phoenix flowers you weave are really beautiful. Jiang Anan said enviously.
Senior Sister Xiao Wang smiled proudly: "Of course, Senior Sister has liked phoenix lanterns since she was a child." ”
As she spoke, she pulled out her hand and gently squeezed Jiang An'an's little face.
With a slight turn of his gaze, he met Jiang Wang's clear and calm eyes.
The heart suddenly stopped.
"Brother Jiang is looking at me, Brother Jiang is looking at me!" she shouted in her heart.
"His eyes are so serious......"
"He smiled at me!"
The waves in his heart were surging, but his face was very reserved, and he only nodded his slightly round chin, revealing three points of careless gentleness, and then turned his head and forcibly knitted phoenix flowers calmly. But the roots of the ears were already red in an instant.
At that time, under the tall cloud platform, the disciples of Lingxiao Pavilion came and went, preparing for the lantern festival at night, Jiang Wang stood in the crowd, quietly looking at this side.
Facing Senior Sister Wang's gaze, Jiang Wang smiled politely, which was regarded as a greeting.
Of course he was looking at An An.
Xiao An'an looked at the phoenix flower for a while, then turned his head to look for his brother, saw Jiang Wangs is sweet smile, and turned back to look at the phoenix lantern steadily.
She was very curious about why the shadow of this phoenix lantern could turn into a phoenix. Senior Sister Xiao Wang said that 999 phoenix lanterns will be released tonight, and they will be more beautiful than stars when they fly in the night sky.
She loves to look at the stars so much that she doesn't know what is more beautiful than the stars. So she's looking forward to it.
Children are always easy to indulge in the things they like, and she looked at it seriously, so she didn't notice that her brother's figure had disappeared into the crowd.
......
......
On the Chinese New Year's Eve of 3918, the western border was not peaceful.
This is especially true for the Yongguo people who were beaten into the land by foreign enemies.
The entire Yongguo, from the lord of the country to the hundred officials, down to the common people, no one has ever imagined that one day they will be hit by the weak Zhuang State.
Many Yongguo people firmly believe that Zhuang Guo is only a small branch of their own country, and sooner or later it will be recovered. When it will be returned, it only depends on when Yongting makes up his mind. Even though the Zhuang State has been in fact established for more than 300 years, many Yongguo people still do not recognize the Zhuang State as an independent country.
So when Zhuang Guo brazenly launched a national war, many people didn't believe it to be true and thought it was a rumor.
However, in fact, in the early morning of the 29th day of the lunar month, the forward army of Zhuangguo had already broken through the border army of Yongguo stationed in the Qichang Mountains and entered Lingbei Mansion.
On the evening of the same day, on the Chinese New Year's Eve of the 3918 Dao calendar, the defense network of the entire Lingbei Province had been broken, and the army marched into Yiyang Province. It's overwhelming!
Yongguo British Gongbei Gongbei Gongyu took command of the expedition, and was bound to attack the Zhuang army head-on and drive the Zhuang army back to the south of the Qichang Mountains. But in the middle of the leading turn.
Because the army of Luoguo came to the west and joined forces with the Qingjiang Water Mansion of Zhuang State, the Lanhe Water Mansion was in danger in an instant!
Zhuang Guo had already secretly reached an agreement with Luo Guo, and even persuaded the Qingjiang Water Mansion to join forces with the Luo State Water Army, which was notorious among the water tribes.
What's even more terrifying is that Jing Kingdom in the Northern Regions, which Yongguo has always been most vigilant about, has also made a move. Chimawei, who ranks seventh among the top ten cavalry armies in the world, has come north!
The Zhuang army broke through Lingbei Mansion, an important town in the south of Yongguo, as if announcing some kind of signal, and for a time a big war broke out on the whole front, and Jing and Luo sent troops one after another.
A day ago, Yongguo was still an old power in the west, and it once went north to compete with Jing for hegemony. Although it can't be compared with countries like Qin and Jing now, small countries such as Weilingzhuang and Chen are still common.
But in just one day, the situation changed suddenly, and the country was in danger!
At this time, Han Yin, the emperor of Yongguo, broke through the pass, personally put on armor, and went out of the Mandate of Heaven Mansion alone, to see the king with the king, and the battle village was envious in Yiyang Mansion.
Everyone knows that the current Yongguo lord Han Yan is in name only and is a puppet. The supreme power of the entire Yongguo has always been in the hands of Emperor Han Yin.
And Qi Maoxian, the prime minister of Yongguo, personally sat in Jing'an Mansion to welcome the possible Jingguo soldiers.
Jing'an Mansion is an important military town in the north of Yongguo, and it has always been a defense line built with Jingguo as an imaginary enemy. Although the Red Horse Guard is famous all over the world. Qi Maoxian relied on the heavy army of Jing'an Mansion and definitely had the strength to fight.
Yongguo has a profound heritage, the state minister Qi Maoxian rejected the red horse guard in the north, the British Gongbei Gong Yuchi aided the Lanhe Water Mansion, and the joint naval army of the Luo Kingdom and the Qingjiang Water Mansion in the west.
Both Jing and Luo sent only one army. Only Zhuang is fighting for the country.
For a while, the key to the victory or defeat of this national war fell on Yiyang Mansion.
Han Yin, the emperor of Yongguo, is a figure of the same era as Zhuang Chengqian, the ancestor of Zhuang State.
More than 300 years ago, Han Zhou, the male lord of the Yongguo Dynasty, died on the battlefield, and the prince died mysteriously in the East Palace, followed by the "Three Kings Seize the Throne". A big war broke out between the three kings, and the Yongguo, which was already greatly injured, was even more ruined because of the chaos. But it was not any of the three kings who finally ascended to the throne.
It is said that the subjects of Yongguo felt that the three kings attacked each other, disregarded the people's livelihood, and caused chaos in Yongguo, thinking that they were not Ming lords, so they turned to support Han Zhou's younger brother to inherit the throne, that is, Han Yin.
Han Yin sat on the dragon chair in the Mandate of Heaven Mansion, personally led the troops, and in just one year, defeated the three kings one by one, completely controlled the military and political power of Yongguo, and stabilized the turbulent situation of Yongguo.
It even repelled the invasion of Jing Kingdom!
is regarded as the king who turned the tide, and his momentum is chasing after a generation of heroes Han Zhou.
Then with the trend of the world, the south came to Pingzhuang to "rebel".
In that battle, Zhuang Chengqian personally guarded the Qichang Mountains, did not give an inch, and resisted the attack of Yongguo. The Qingjiang Water Mansion, which had made an alliance with Zhuang Chengqian, under the leadership of Song Hengjiang, fought with the clans and killed the Lan River to dye red, opening up a front-line situation for Zhuang Guo.
After that, Zhuang Guo joined the Taoist country, got some degree of protection, and became a nail inserted by Jing Guo into the west, which is all a later story.
failed to "pacify" Zhuangdi and allowed Zhuang Guosheji to continue, which is also an important reason why Han Yin failed to surpass Han Zhou in the hearts of many people. After all, Zhuang Chengqian was only a general under Han Zhou, and he was honest and hardworking when Han Zhou was alive. Han Yin failed to defeat Zhuang Chengqian.
It can be said that Zhuang Guo is the nail that Han Yin has nailed the deepest in his heart.
And this time, it was Han Yin who pulled out the thorn in his eye, or Zhuang Gaoxian inherited the will of Taizu and succeeded in fighting against Qiangyong.
It's all in the battle of Yiyang Mansion.
