Chapter 429 The grand party begins

At night, at Xu time, the grand party begins.

This is a relatively open area in Shanglinyuan, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people. Even so, the scene was paralyzed at this moment. Countless people came, especially in Qianshou District, which was so crowded that the entire area was packed.

.

Even wealthy areas are overcrowded.

This is a rare grand event. It is rare for the emperor to appear in front of so many people. It is also a grand event with many novelties. Even if it is getting dark, no one wants to leave.

Under the shining white lights, you can see hundreds of things in every street. The appearance of this scene has surprised many people who have never been to Shanglin Garden.

It was already dark, but in less than an hour, the whole world lit up, making it look extremely bizarre.

Scenes like this also happen in open spaces. It was dark that day, and I only felt a flash in the sky. Suddenly the whole place was covered with daylight. No one knew what happened. Some unsuspecting people were frightened and fell to the ground for a long time.

Dare to get up.

Of course, some people think that this is God's blessing, or that the emperor's personal visit moved God and made an exception for the day to appear.

But many people know this is nonsense.

"This is the big lamp of Shanglin Garden. It can illuminate the sun and the moon."

Some people raised their heads and said, full of pride, as if he had brought all this. But everyone knew that these words were exaggerated, but they also showed the uniqueness of this lamp.

The open space that could accommodate tens of thousands of people immediately became as bright as day. Several people had seen this scene before, and for a while there were shouts of surprise, and they all praised Shanglin Garden for how wonderful it was.

Of course, even people who have lived in Shanglin Garden for a long time have seen such a scene for the first time. If there are street lights in Shanglin Garden, they are just ordinary lights that can only illuminate the road. But the difference at this moment is completely different.

It is a lamp that no one can tell whether it is night or day.

If a person looks up, his eyes will be dazzled as if he were blind. It is like rounds of scorching sun shining on the earth.

"Shiya, have you ever seen such a lamp? Let me tell you, it is just a very common thing in Shanglin Garden."

Young Master Feng came up to Shiya and spoke coquettishly, which showed his air.

Yes, after coming to Shanglin Garden for so long, he has regarded Shanglin Garden as his home. He is also glad that he made his original choice and came here resolutely despite the opposition from the clan.

"This lantern is also made by the young master. No, the Li Zhao you say made it is very strange."

The young master of the Feng family was Li Zhao's student when he entered the school, but he did not dare to call him by his first name.

"It's Li Zhao again!"

Shiya had a shy face, not overly surprised, but there was a slight strange color on her face, which was just for a moment.

"Miss, I didn't expect that Young Master Li Zhao has such ability. This is a sign of good fortune for our Great Qin. When the time comes, Miss, you become Mrs. Li, no, what an honor it will be to win Mrs. Li!"

Xiaoting was shocked and filled with excitement.

But when it fell on the young lady, she frowned.

Shiya raised her slender hand lightly, tugged on Xiaoting's sleeve, and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, you know me. Even if I am outstanding, how can I do it?"

Xiaoting shut up and showed a look of displeasure. Of course she knew what the young lady was thinking, but how could such a capable person not be able to win the heart of a beautiful lady?

The young lady is too persistent in her affection.

"Xiaoting, just shut up!" Xiaoting covered her mouth, but was attracted by a burst of noise, and followed the sound, her eyes full of curiosity.

I saw a huge house in the center of the open space. I don't know if it was a house or not, but it was wrapped in a red coarse cloth. This cloth was wide enough to cover a hundred people.

At this time, the curtain was slowly being pulled open, revealing the tip of the iceberg inside.

This is a tall column with a flat roof on top and steps on the bottom.

Some people have seen such a building, because Shanglinyuan Hotel has such a structure.

As the curtain was pulled back, the entire house appeared in front of everyone. No, it was not a house. It was an empty silhouette with open doors on all sides, four pillars standing upright, and above the pillars was the roof. It was decorated in various colors and was very impressive.

This is not what surprised everyone. What surprised everyone was that the flashing light suddenly lit up on the flat roof, like lightning passing by, it was extremely dazzling, and then the four pillars were illuminated so that nothing could be hidden. It was extremely beautiful.

But what is a little flaw is that in such a luxurious place, there are two dark and unknown things, which is really an eyesore.

"Look, miss, it must be the stage for the grand event. It's really grand."

"Special enough."

But it can be seen that Shiya's interest is lacking. Perhaps her heart is not in this.

"It's quite impressive! This is carefully built by the young master, specially designed for the grand event."

Mr. Feng came over again and explained.

Shiya felt a little numb after hearing the word Li Zhao all day, but she just smiled politely. The more outstanding Li Zhao was shown in this way, the more princes and ladies fell in love with him. He was not a good couple.

, in case he has three wives and four concubines, he does not want to keep an empty house alone.

This is not what she wants. She likes to be together, like to be single-minded, and like to be affectionate.

While everyone was talking about the stage for the grand event, two people were talking quietly on the first floor of the pavilion.

"Sir, I have sent people everywhere to find out the news. Your Majesty the Emperor has arrived and is at the top of the Imperial Road, but His Majesty has never appeared. Eunuch Shang enters Luanjia from time to time and is very vigilant. We have not found any useful information.

Message, do you want me to take a risk and find out?"

"Um!"

The adult nodded and scanned the open space below, especially the towering grand gathering platform.

"No, since the grand event is His Majesty's will, he will definitely take the stage. Then he will naturally know whether the rumors are true. Don't forget that he also has to announce important things."

"Sir, are you saying that His Majesty will issue an edict at the grand ceremony to give Li Zhaoying the surname and let him supervise the country?"

"Of course!"

"Then should our people act in advance?"

"No, we still need to look again to see if His Majesty is really at the point where his life is in danger."

"good!"

The two just whispered for a few moments and then left. At this time, the event officially began.

In the VIP area, the three princes and nine ministers lined up and stood on both sides of the imperial road. Other officials also arrived early, following closely behind the three ministers and nine ministers, surrounding the entire imperial road, leaving only a straight red carpet leading directly to the stage of the grand ceremony.

The grand event began with the arrival of the emperor.

At the top of the imperial road, the emperor's carriage moved slowly, guarded by dozens of guards, full of power.

Arriving next to Sangong and Jiuqing, the emperor's carriage stopped, and Ying Zheng stepped out of the carriage. However, the emperor seemed to have changed from before he came to Shanglin Garden.

The whole person looked sick, with a haggard face and listless spirit. He even walked stiffly step by step, as if he was afraid that he might fall down at any time.

If it weren't for Shang Xin's support at his side, he might have been unable to move forward.

"Your Majesty!" Seeing such a situation, all the officials looked shocked and became sad. They quickly bowed their hands and saluted, "See your Majesty."

All the officials saluted in unison. Some sounded sad, which may be true sadness, while others were also sad, maybe pretentious, but no matter what, the atmosphere at this moment fell into sadness.

Sure enough, as rumored, His Majesty is in a critical condition and is unable to even walk at this moment. But what makes everyone feel relieved is that His Majesty seems a little excited at this moment, and his body has been stiff and trembling.

"Everyone, get up!" Ying Zheng raised his hands with difficulty and tried his best to straighten himself up, but his stooped body didn't allow it, but he still held on. His posture was completely like he was about to die.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Everyone, take your seats!"

Ying Zheng ordered everyone to take their seats, and everyone took their seats one after another.

Ying Zheng didn't care about this, his eyes swept back and forth eagerly, but even though his stiff body turned around, he couldn't see Li Zhao.

"Where is Li Zhao?" asked Shang Xin.

Shang Xin cupped his hands and responded: "Your Majesty, General Li will be here shortly."

Ying Zheng showed a hint of anger, but even so, his anger could not be seen. Instead, it was replaced by an indescribable weakness. Everyone learned that His Majesty was no longer as majestic as before, and some were just hanging on.

"How unbecoming of him not to arrive early for such an important day!" He scolded angrily, but his tone was calm and full of hope.

Yes, it was the expectation. Tonight was the time when he and his son recognized each other. It was the moment when he and Afang's common son truly recognized each other.

Although he could not reconnect with Afang, Afang gave him a more precious gift, their son.

Shang Xin heard the unusual smell and knelt down quickly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. General Li also wanted to come early, but he specially prepared some programs so that your Majesty can have a unique event tonight."

"Oh! Special program? What program?"

Ying Zheng was curious, and turned around with his stiff body, looking straight at Shang Xin.

"I don't know what the show is, General Li said it's music."

"Music?"

Everyone looked attentively and listened.

The Book of Songs was a popular thing in the Qin Dynasty. There are elegant poems and poems that inspired the six arts. Feng is a matter of the people, and elegance is the music of the court.

They have already heard the palace music, it is nothing new, so there is no need to prepare it specially, and it will also delay His Majesty.

"He has a heart."

Ying Zheng's anger subsided a little, and he no longer wanted to blame, but he also didn't show much interest. As everyone thought, it was just elegance, just for drinking and enjoying, and not on the stage.

"Forget it! Just let it go and let's get started!"

"promise!"

Shang Xin stood up and held up his hands, then walked to the grand gathering stage, which was the center of the entire grand gathering. He waved gently and someone walked in.

Not long after, there was a sudden, harsh sound, squeaking.
Chapter completed!
