high official

Chapter 862
In the days that followed, the Jinyiwei gangsters circled the streets like mad dogs, arresting anyone who disliked them. full of.In the end, I had no choice but to send them to the barracks of the Qianwei of the government army. Fortunately, the Qianwei of the government army has not yet recovered, and the supply of soldiers is less than half, and some rooms are pretending to be prisoners...

As for why he didn't send it to the largest prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, the reason is also very simple-anyone with a discerning eye can see that Wang Xian is blatantly going against the emperor's will. have to be picked.

Fortunately, Yin Li Pan of Shuntian Mansion is still a sensible person, knowing that he and Wang Xian are grasshoppers on the same rope. He said that there are hundreds or even thousands of local ruffians and kidnappers who have been caught!The law and order in the capital is pretty good these days. It is a bit exaggerated to say that the road does not pick up lost things, but it is absolutely certain that the door is not closed at night.

No way, criminals are human too!Watching those heavily armed Jin Yiwei crazily arresting people all over the street, some vicious people who dared to resist arrest were shot into hornet's nests by bows and muskets!Not to mention being arrested, even if you escape, you may be shot!It was terrible!Those big brothers and sisters were so scared that they all stayed at home and dared not go out, wandering in the streets where extortion, extortion, money and abduction were everywhere, and all of them disappeared intensively, and there was no one left!Youdao means that in the face of dictatorship, all reactionaries are paper tigers, that's what it means!
As a result, the law and order in the capital is very good, and the common people are more daring to go out. In addition, the Lantern Festival is coming soon, and the Lantern Mountain Colorful Towers are also erected. ...Wang Xian, who wanted to create a terrifying atmosphere and scare the common people back home, was almost so angry...

There is no way, this is the city of Beijing, and the common people only recognize Zhu Di, since the emperor has said that he wants to have a carnival and a warm celebration in the Yuan Dynasty, the common people will celebrate with carnival and stay away at night, so why do they care about what Wang Xian is?When Beijing City supported the Holy Cavalry, he didn't know where to feed!
Seeing that this Shangyuan carnival could not be stopped, Wang Xian had no choice but to change his strategy, from containment to protection and prevention. He ordered his soldiers to divide into sections, and registered all participating lantern festivals and theater troupes. After all the props and materials were checked and found to be safe, they were allowed to appear at the carnival scene of the Shangyuan Festival.

At dusk, many fireworks were eagerly lit in the capital, and Wang Xian and others standing on the top of Chongwenmen could smell the clear smell of gunpowder smoke.

"The smell of fireworks is the smell of the Spring Festival." Looking at the majestic Beijing city, with hundreds of lantern mountains and thousands of colorful gates that have been tied up in the city and are waiting for dark, Li Pansheng felt a little nervous. The pride of being the Governor of Shuncheon!

"But I smell the flames of war." Wang Xian's face showed no expression at all, his pupils were blood-red by the setting sun that was about to set.

"Uncle is worrying too much," Li Pan said with a smile: "After such a long time and such high-intensity security, I believe this Shangyuan Festival will be safe and perfect."

"No, there are too many people." Wang Xian shook his head and said, "We can still control the situation before the event begins, but when it gets dark and the event starts, the gods have no choice but to resign themselves to fate..."

"It'll be fine." Li Pan smiled to relieve Wang Xian's pressure, and then left. As the governor of Shuntian Prefecture and the highest local governor of the capital, he wanted to light the lamps for tonight's event!This is his great honor, and he cannot and will not refuse.

After Li Pan left, Wang Xian said to Wu Wei who was beside him: "You know my intuition, it has always been accurate..."

"Yes." Wu Wei nodded, how many years he has been with Wang Xian, how could he not know?Just relying on this intuition, Wang Xian led them to avoid danger many times!He sighed: "But this time, it's really beyond our control. As Mr. Yan said, do your best and obey the fate."

"Hey..." Wang Xian let out a foul breath, looked at the direction of Houhai in the distance, and felt a pang of guilt in his heart. He struggled so hard that he finally let Baoyin and Ahheng stay with him for the New Year, but he spent all day Don't go home, don't talk, don't let them go out to watch the lanterns tonight... Baoyin is reasonable, knowing that Wang Xian is worried about their safety, so he didn't say anything.But the more this happened, the more guilty Wang Xian felt...

The sky is short in the first month, and the sky was full of western oceans just now, but at this time, the sky is already dark.Wang Xian tightened his cloak, and said to the brothers beside him: "All go..." He knew that it would be useless to say anything tonight, because the thousands of Jin Yiwei could do nothing in the crowd.Anyway, what should be said has already been said, so there is no nonsense at all, Wang Xian waved his hand, and let the generals split up.

He himself was surrounded by Wu Wei, Zhou Yong, Ling Xiao and Xiao Lian who were disguised as men, and Xin Ning Xinyuan who was disguised as a Jin Yiwei and others.As soon as he got out of the city, Wang Xian saw an army approaching rumblingly. He took a closer look and saw that there were five thousand soldiers of the Shenji Battalion in full armor, all with muskets in their hands and bows and crossbows strung up.The leading old general, riding on a yellow pussy horse and wearing red armor, was none other than Anyuan Hou Liusheng!
"Master Hou!" Seeing Liu Sheng, Wang Xian showed joy and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Liu Sheng had a very good impression of Wang Xian. He rode on a horse and laughed loudly with his beard curled up: "Boy Wang, don't you worry about it now? Your Majesty is not as careless as you think. In fact, there are already arrangements! I just don't want to spoil the festival. Because, it’s just loose on the outside and tight on the inside!”

"Why, besides Shenji Camp, does the Emperor have other arrangements?" Wang Xian asked.

"Of course, Cheng Guogong and the old eunuch Zhao are in the palace, leading the whole team to patrol everywhere!" Liu Sheng said with a smile: "Don't worry, if the bad guys don't make trouble tonight, if they do, they will be killed." No place to die!"

"Hehe, good..." Wang Xian smiled, but the smile was a bit far-fetched.

"Why, don't you feel relieved?" Liu Sheng glared at him, and scolded with a smile, "I said, did you have a nervous breakdown? I've seen big winds and waves before, what is this?"

"Hey, it's different." Wang Xian shook his head and sighed: "It's a war. If you have a lot of strength, you can use it with a lot of strength. This is security. If you have a lot of strength, you can use a point. It's not bad..."

"It's done, I won't talk to you anymore." Seeing the troops walking away, Liu Sheng waved his hand at Wang Xian, and laughed loudly: "I sent some wild game from the Zhuangzi the day before yesterday, so go back to my place and have some wine!"

Seeing the back of An Yuanhou getting more and more blurred, Wang Xiangang was about to say something when he suddenly heard a bang, an earth-shattering bang!All the guards hurriedly drew their swords to protect him in the middle.But seeing Ling Xiao pointing at the huge fireworks blooming in the night sky, jumping happily: "It's started! It's started!"

There are hundreds of thousands of fireworks blooming in the sky all the time, and the gorgeous and colorful fireworks completely cover the stars!On the ground are countless tall feet, dry boats, jugglers, and letters, swaggering through the city around the dazzling and various large floats, attracting crowds of people dizzying!

The sound of firecrackers, silk and bamboo, gongs and drums, and yelling have merged into a pot of porridge. Even if you are whispering, you have to use your strength to hear the other party's words clearly. As long as you are far away, no one can hear anything!

Of course, in the Shangyuan Festival, the main character is naturally the lantern!All kinds of lanterns are radiant and dazzling, just like the Milky Way in the sky falling on the Qipan Tianjie in the capital, thousands of lights, twinkling, competing for splendor and beauty!People in the capital immersed in the sea of ​​joy, either with their families, or friends, or couples holding hands, they wear garlands on their heads, and hold rich and attractive snacks in their hands, wandering here to their heart's content In the galaxy of lights, we are admiring and appreciating the exquisite lanterns that are painstakingly made and spared no expense!

It is Xin'an Deng who uses silk sacs to store millet as a fetus, wraps them around, and grows and removes millet, which is like a glass ball!
The rings are three or four feet in diameter, and the expensive lanterns made entirely of colored glass are Su lanterns!
The five-color beads are used as the keynote, the tassels are drooping, and the stories of dragon boats, phoenix chariots, and buildings are painted on the lamps. The most attractive thing for young men and women is the bead lamp!

The arrowheads are exquisitely carved, with five-color makeup and dyed in the style of a movie, which is the most popular sheepskin lamp for children!

There is also the kind of horse riding lamp that rides on a wheel, turns like flying, and draws war scenes on the lampshade, which is loved by everyone, and the audience is like a cloud!
But the most, the most, the most faintly noticeable are the huge lamp mountains on Yujie Street that are several feet high, or even more than ten feet high!That was a congratulatory gift for moving the capital to the emperor at the cost of countless people's money in various provinces and places!That's why King Zhao stood up for those lamps and suppressed the 'ignorant' Wang Xian... It can not only please the emperor, but also show favor to the local officials.
Those lantern mountains are really like hills, two to three hundred steps wide, built with hundreds of wooden beams to form a skeleton, and then decorated with various lanterns, colored silk, colored glaze, and flowers.
