Destiny Only Han

Chapter 516 Liu Ying: Those who are in the Liu family must be boobs?

Outside Qinian Palace, there were lights and festoons, and the lights were bright.

Today is the day for the wax festival celebration, but during the day, all the necessary procedures have been completed. At night, it is only necessary to hold a ceremony to exorcise ghosts, and then pass the lit torch to all directions of the empire. Even the festival that is more grand than the New Year is over.

The current Han Empire has rested for five or six years. In order to awaken the vitality of the people and realize the new look of the new dynasty, Liu Ying decided to imitate the fireworks show held during the New Year and hold a light show on the day of La Festival.

Therefore, on the south bank of the Weihe River, where countless colored lights are hung, you can see shopkeepers carrying burdens, cooks supporting food stalls, acrobats performing tricks and acrobatics, and crowds of people from all over Guanzhong, rubbing shoulders. .

Liu Ying conservatively estimated that there should be as many as [-] to [-] people participating in this light show, and in this festive atmosphere, even those "iron cocks" who repeatedly warned themselves and their families before coming to see but not buy, would not I can't help but follow the trend and spend a little bit...

Especially in the Longdong area, these old military nobles of the Qin Dynasty who own a large area of ​​land.

After all, it was only 11 years since the end of the Qin Dynasty. Many of them considered themselves Han Chinese, but they were still the old Qin people shaped by the high pressure of Qin Law.

Therefore, the dogma of "farming and fighting" is still maintained, and the daily life is like an ascetic monk.

Such old stubble leeks are not easy to cut, but the small leeks that emerge from the roots of the leeks are tender and juicy. You don't need to use much force. You can cut a lot...

In this way, the rotten and moldy copper coins in the cellar were circulated on the market, alleviating the pressure of insufficient circulation of precious metals due to the revitalization of commerce and trade.

Moreover, small traders no longer need to rack their brains about how to evade taxes after making money.

As students from the mathematics department of the Han Public School graduated in batches, Xiao He took away more than [-]% of the students and put them on a set The clothes of the top tax collectors were thrown all over the country for tax inspection and tax collection.

Those merchants who have shops and warehouses in the local area dare not blatantly cheat. The bureaucrats of the Han Dynasty do not have any civilized and law-enforcement principles. Whoever fools them will copy their homes...

Therefore, the focus is on those small traders who run around.

But other Liu Ying dare not be sure, if it is just a group of small traders who know how to add, subtract, multiply and divide, then they will definitely not be able to compete with a small tax collector with a junior high school diploma...

Therefore, Liu Ying listened to Han Tan whispering in his ear, and nodded in satisfaction.

Tonight's fireworks show is destined to be a night that everyone can be satisfied with!

The common people watch the lanterns and fireworks for free. Although they spend money to buy something to eat, drink and play, they get happiness; small vendors sell their goods and get money; Lay a pull infrastructure, benefit the people!

As for Liu Ying's hand cramp counting the booth fee, it's not important...

And he not only gained, but also paid.

For example, nearly 3000 lanterns tonight, the next fireworks show, and the recruitment of more than [-] villains and local hidden officials in order to maintain order and cleanliness, that is, the salary of the disabled.

When the sound of drums sounded in the square outside the Qinian Palace, it marked the official start of the exorcism of the Nuo.

Thousands of people poured in from all directions. If Liu Ying hadn't asked the soldiers to pull up the ropes to enclose the viewing places into independent areas, and with the deterrent force of the villainous boys holding sticks, the stampede would have been inevitable.

On the top of the wall, Liu Le covered half of his face with a round fan made of peacock feathers, watching Liu Ruyi and Liu Heng, who had painted their faces like monkey butts, were silently angry in black clothes and red hats.

She is already a big girl now, so naturally she can no longer be the companion (zhèn) child in the grand Nuo exorcism ceremony.

But little loli squinted at Liu Ying, who was whispering something to Han Tan, and felt a little more balanced in her heart.

She can't be a girl, and of course Liu Ying can't be a boy, but in her opinion, Liu Ying is very treacherous, and the city is very deep. She thinks she is trying to suppress the unhappiness in her heart by forcing a smile at this moment.

Thinking of Liu Ying being unhappy, she suddenly became happy...

So, she continued to cover half of her face with a round fan, followed behind Lu Zhi, and walked into a group of noble ladies, her every move seemed dignified and elegant, a very ladylike lady.

Well, little Lolita's wedding is coming soon. In order to make her appearance on a semi-formal occasion like this tonight, she has practiced etiquette for more than half a month under Lu Zhi's pressure...

So, naturally won everyone's compliments.

"Princess Zhiyang is very graceful, she really deserves to be my big man's eldest princess, a role model for us..."

"Yes, such a beauty, it's really cheap to wait for the son of the family..."

……

When the little Lolita's peas were smiling, Liu Ying gradually opened her eyes wide as she looked at the group of Chang'an ladies who were talking non-stop around the little Lolita.

She is pretending, she is pretending... Liu Ying really wanted to rush over to expose the little loli, but considering the standing next to the little loli, Lu Zhi, who was as proud as a little hen that had just laid an egg, turned her head away silently. Go, out of sight, out of sight.

....................................

On the west side of the city wall, Zhou Bo, who was chatting with several Yuan Cong heroes, looked at Liu Ying who was strolling on the top of the city, his eyes lit up, he patted Li Shang on the shoulder, and nodded his chin at Liu Ying who was in the distance.

Li Shang understood in seconds, and walked towards Liu Ying with Zhou Bo.

"What are you doing? Kidnapping the prince of the empire in broad daylight, do you know what crime it is?" Liu Ying yelled loudly, the whole person was held hostage and flew into the air, her legs kept flapping in the air.

Li Shang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but Zhou Bo on the other side of Liu Ying was not so particular, with a smirk on his face: "Where's the day? The prince looked up, today you can't even see the moon!"

I Zhuo, really... Liu Ying subconsciously looked up at the pitch-black night sky, and once again scolded those incompetent Taishi in her heart.

The day of the La Festival in the Han Dynasty today is chosen to be the third Xu day after the Winter Solstice, which is roughly equivalent to the 25th or 26th of the twelfth lunar month.

And the moon usually only disappears on the first day of each month...

Can you bear it?I couldn't bear it...Liu Ying struggled a few more times, and shouted loudly: "Put me down, I'm going to ask Tai Shiling for an explanation! It's not a day or two since he miscalculated the date!"

Well, at this time, Tai Shi Ling was in charge of observing the astrology and formulating the calendar, and as for recording the history, it was completely easy.

As for the historical records written by Tai Shigong, they wrote it for their own fun at the beginning, but they never thought that the so-called "family's words" could kill the genuine history books of the Han Dynasty...

This wave, it is true that the same people forced the original work to death...

But how can Zhou Bo fulfill Liu Ying's wish? He has found several opportunities along the way, but he has never found the moment when Liu Ying placed an order, so no matter how Liu Ying struggles and finds out various reasons, he will work with Li Shang to put the order together. Liu Ying stood in front of the wine stall erected on the west side of the city wall.

After regaining her freedom, Liu Ying looked around and saw familiar faces.

Liaohou Kongju, Feihou Chenhe, Quchenghou Chongda, and Jipuhou Chaiwu are several meritorious officials who are trusted by Liu Bang.

Liu Ying was silent for a while, and she was not polite, she just sat at the wine table and started eating and drinking.

Sitting next to him, Zhou Bo reached out to stop Liu Ying's chopsticks, and sighed softly: "Prince, it's better not to eat, this is what the old ministers will eat for the next half month..."

"Are you crying and poor?" Liu Ying rolled her eyes and groped her body for a long time. She wanted to take out a couple of copper coins and slapped them on the table to ridicule Zhou Bo, but when she fumbled around, she found that he touched even a copper coin. not coming out...

Well, now he always responds to every call when he goes out, and the old habit of sewing a bunch of gold leaves in the corner of his clothes is gone.

But looking at Chai Wu and the others with mean faces, he took out the money note from his pocket, wrote a line of numbers on it and threw it over: "How about it, is it enough for a meal?"

Zhou Bo took it with hope, and the smile on his face froze immediately.

250.

This is the number on the money ticket.

Chongda was stunned for a moment, leaned over as Liu Ying's swordsmanship teacher, and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, I heard that the Nichinan Governor's Mansion still lacks a few captains?"

I knew it... Liu Ying nodded and asked, "Why? Do you want to go?"

Chai Wu shook his head like a rattle:
"Don't go, don't go, Lingnan is humiliating, we can't stand it... Besides, with our identities, going there just to be a school captain is not only inappropriate, but also embarrassing His Majesty, right? In this way, no Throw your face off, Prince..."

Chai Wu was an old acquaintance of Liu Bang when he was a ranger. Later, when he was also in the Chu army, he was robbed by Liu Bang again.

Chai Wu thought about it, and felt that returning to Pengcheng empty-handed would be dead, and if he had to go to Anyang Xiang Yu's army, he would be dead, so he simply followed Liu Bang, and then went all the way to Guanzhong, and decided to join Zhou Bo in the battle of Sanqin and Gaixia Covering the flanks of the army did not leave a single flaw for Xiang Yu.

So looking at Chai Wu, who looked flattering and a little groveling in front of her, Liu Ying couldn't bear it, she smiled and shook her head:

"Let's be honest, what exactly do you want to do when you arrest me? If it's not too much, I'll agree! If it's too much, everyone can discuss it carefully... They are all my big man's subordinates, there is no need to do this."

Hearing Liu Ying's words, Chai Wu was immediately overjoyed, and after looking at Zhou Bo and others, his tone was full of expectation.

"Your Highness knows that everything in Chang'an City is expensive now, and we are raising a large family. Money is really tight... So, can Your Highness give us some tips on how to make money?"

Looking at Zhou Bo who was nodding frequently, the corners of Liu Ying's mouth slowly raised.

"Okay."
