Chapter 162 The eldest grandson brother
"Moonlight Mountain is full of imperial capitals, and Xiangchebao covers the pass and thoroughfare."

The Shangyuan Lantern Festival has a long history. It has been said since the Eastern Han Dynasty. Even in the early Tang Dynasty, the Shangyuan Festival was even more lively than the first day of the first month.

On this day, in the city of Chang'an, everyone from the royal family to the peddlers and pawns will put down their work on this day and come to the street for a stroll.

When Li Ke's carriage left Yong'an Gate, Li Ke opened his eyes and saw that the Tianjie Street, which was ten miles long, was already full of people standing there.

On both sides of the spacious sky street, on the tall buildings and tall trees, colorful lanterns have been hung, reflecting the bright moon in the sky, looking from a distance like the colorful clouds in the sky, it is really dazzling, and also I don't know if the name of Tianjie is related to this.

"Brother, look quickly, there are a lot of people." Gao Yang used to stay in the palace and was used to being deserted. He said excitedly when he saw so many people, watching the bustling people on the street.

Li Ke looked at Gao Yang's appearance, patted Gao Yang's head lovingly, and said with a smile: "Your voice should be softer, if someone else hears it, it's just that you are a daredevil who came to Beijing for the first time from a foreign country."

Gao Yang stuck out his tongue, and said to Li Ke: "My brother is away from home, so he can come out often, and I come out rarely, so I'm naturally more excited."

Li Ke glanced at Princess Changle who was sitting here, and said to Gao Yang: "You, if one day you can be half as quiet as Changle, I will be content as a brother."

Gao Yang refused to accept it and said: "Sister Changle is older than Gao Yang, after a few more years in Gao Yang, she will naturally be like this."

Li Ke said with a smile: "If it's true, brother, I can rest assured."

As Li Ke said, he pinched Gao Yang's pink and tender face again.

"Brother is bullying Gao Yang again." Gao Yang's cheek was pinched by Li Ke, but Gao Yang didn't want to suffer at all, turned around and pinched Li Ke's cheek.

In the carriage, Li Ke and Gao Yang were having a fight, Princess Changle at the side saw it, but there was unconcealable admiration in her eyes.

Although Li Ke is not a crown prince, nor is he a direct son, but he really cares about Gao Yang and is willing to work hard on Gao Yang.

Think about his two elder brothers, who only care about their own affairs on weekdays, how can they have the time to take care of her sister, not to mention that they are so intimate and playful like Li Ke and Gao Yang, they can't even say a few words, let alone talk about it. Love it.

If there is a choice, why would Chang Le want to be this demure look? She also wants to cling to brother's side like Gao Yang to play and act coquettishly, but where did she get these opportunities.

While Li Ke and Gao Yang were still fighting, the carriage had already reached Tianjie, Gao Yang yelled to get off the carriage to look at the lights, but Li Ke couldn't resist her, so he could only agree to her.

When Gao Yang got out of the carriage, he was like a happy rabbit. If Li Ke hadn't held him tightly, he might have gone somewhere.

"Brother, look, it's so big and beautiful." Gao Yang pointed to a shop in front of him, his love was beyond words, and he danced to Li Ke.

Li Ke looked at Gao Yang's expression of liking, and said to Gao Yang, "Do you want this?"

When Gao Yang heard this, he naturally knew that Li Ke was going to buy it for her, so he replied crisply: "Yeah."

Li Ke said: "Let's go, my brother will take you to buy it."

As Li Ke said, he thought of Chang Le next to him. Although Chang Le was not his compatriot sister, Li Ke was unwilling to treat one more favorably than another, so he also said to Chang Le: "What is Chang Le still doing in a daze? Let's go together. If you have The brother you like is also given to you."

After hearing Li Ke's words, Chang Le also showed a smile on her face. She came out wearing maid's clothes without any money on her body. When she saw something she liked and couldn't ask for it, Li Ke helped her out.

"Thank you, brother." Outside, Chang Le couldn't address him as Brother Three Emperors, so he followed Gao Yang's address and thanked Li Ke.

Li Ke took Gao Yang and Chang Le to the shop where the lights were placed, and when they got to the shop, Li Ke asked Chang Le: "Chang Le, which one do you like?"

Chang Le looked at it, pointed to a colorful bird lantern hanging in front of him, and said to Li Ke: "Brother, I want this."

"it is good."

Li Ke nodded, and said to the man guarding the shop: "I want this peacock and this colorful sparrow, pick them off for me."

The owner of the shop glanced at Li Ke and saw that Li Ke was dressed luxuriously and had extraordinary equipment. He didn't care about the price of something he liked, but he just wanted to buy it, so he knew that Li Ke must be a son of a powerful family, and naturally he was not short of money.

But the owner of the shop waved his hand and said: "Today's Lantern Festival, the picture is just for fun. If Xiaolang looks at the lamp and likes it, he can take it according to our rules. If he wins, he won't receive a penny. If he doesn't win , even if you bring a hundred guan coins, it won’t work.”

Li Ke found it quite interesting when he heard the words, so he asked: "What are your rules and how do you get them?"

The owner of the shop took out a bow and arrow from behind, and said to Li Ke: "If Xiaolang can hit the ribbon of the lantern hanging three feet away, the lantern will belong to Xiaolang."

Mr. Li Ke was a little surprised when he heard that, although the bow and arrow in the hands of the owner of the shop were not sharp, they were still bows and crossbows, which were prohibited, how could the owner of the shop dare to take them out openly.

But when Li Ke took a closer look at the owner of the shop, he realized that the owner of the shop was actually wearing clothes that were long in the workshop, and that the shop was actually owned by the government.

On the night of the Yuan Dynasty, the government will also set up a shop on Tianjie for the common people to enjoy. It is no wonder that the owner of this shop does not want money.

Li Ke took the bow and arrow from the owner of the shop, weighed it a little, then pulled it violently, pulling it full of the moon, and said to the owner of the shop: "This bow is a bit lighter, but it is still usable."

Seeing Li Ke's appearance, the owner of the shop was full of surprise on his face.

Although this bow is not a strong bow used by the infantry of the imperial army, it has the strength of seven fights. It is not easy for an ordinary man to draw it, but Li Ke can easily draw the bow to the full, what a strength it is.

And judging from Li Ke's age, he is clearly still a teenager, and his body has not yet fully opened.

"The little general is so strong." The owner of the shop praised Li Ke's bow and full moon posture, thinking that Li Ke must be the man of a general's mansion in the court, and praised him loudly.

In fact, how did the shop owner know that the major general standing in front of him was the pampered prince in their eyes.

When Li Ke was a child, he went north to the Turks as hostages, ate more beef and mutton every day, and practiced martial arts with Su Dingfang, so his foundation was not bad.

In the past two years, after Li Ke returned to Chang'an, he worshiped Qin Shubao as his teacher, practiced martial arts every day, practiced diligently, although his physical strength was not comparable to that of Qin Huaidao who was born with great strength, but it was not weak. Ordinarily, three or four soldiers of the imperial army could hardly get close to them.

Gao Yang likes people to praise Li Ke the most. When Gao Yang heard that someone praised Li Ke, his face showed pride, and he said to the shop owner: "That's right, my elder brother is very capable."

Li Ke looked at Gao Yang's appearance, smiled, followed the shop owner's words, and stood outside the white line three feet away from the lantern, and was about to shoot with his bow and arrow.

But just as Li Ke was fully drawing his bow and arrows, he suddenly caught sight of two familiar figures—Changsun Chong and Changsun Huan out of the corner of his eyes.
