Fisherman's Song Dynasty

The rain of petals fluttered, and the guests were all shocked. They all raised their heads and looked up to the sky, but the weather today was not so good, the moon was completely covered by the clouds, and they couldn't see anything except darkness from the bright place to the dark place. .

Zong Ze shouted again: "The bride enters the hall and salutes!"

Gao Pujun, Wen Xian and Kou Qiaoyi came back to their senses and continued to move forward, but they looked at the beautiful scenery in front of them without blinking, fearing that the rain of petals would disappear in the next moment.

Xu Zizhen waited at the entrance of the hall with a smile, and stood to their left after they entered the door. The four of them entered the hall and officially started today's ceremony of worshiping heaven and earth.

"Worship heaven and earth!"

"Two thanks to the high hall!"

"Bye husband and wife!"

After saluting amidst Zongze's melodious singing, the three newcomers were sent into the bridal chamber, and the banquet officially began.

The rain of flower petals finally stopped, and the servants of Xu's mansion swiftly placed the tables and chairs into the yard. The petals on the ground were still there, piled up shallowly, looking like a red carpet was laid, but at this time they were arranged The guests in the courtyard were delighted. Being able to drink a wedding banquet in such an environment was an unprecedented experience, and it would be a capital to brag to others in the future.

Xu Zizhen's marriage today has become a hot topic of discussion among the people. Some people say that he disregarded the etiquette and let the bride show his face. Some people say that Xu Zizhen is a maverick. This is nothing unusual. The other music is very fresh. But the most discussed thing today is those petals falling out of thin air. Everyone can't figure out what's going on after thinking about it.

Master Yong is impatient and has long been unable to restrain himself. As one of his father-in-law, Xu Zizhen of course came to toast first. Before Xu Zizhen could open his mouth, he hurriedly asked: "What is the mystery of those petals? Don't talk to me about Tiannvsan Hua, I don’t believe this.”

Wen Chengyan, who was sitting next to him, didn't speak, but also stared at him closely. It seemed that today's two husbands-in-law were very satisfied with this wedding arrangement, and they were also very curious.

Xu Zizhen smiled a little strangely: "Who else can it be except the goddess? Could it be that someone can fly in the air and sprinkle flowers for me?"

Master Yong blew his beard and stared, "Hey, you brat..."

Xu Zizhen touched him with the cup, squeezed his eyes and said, "Don't worry, let me meet you some other day."

Master Yong finally stopped asking, because he suddenly understood that there were no goddesses at all, and Xu Zizhen must have invented something new. There are so many people today, so of course Xu Zizhen would not say much.

A young man with a thick head and a thick head entered the hall, and immediately attracted the attention of many people. He was dressed in a strange way, wearing a leather jacket and leather pants, and a leather hat covering his ears, which almost covered his whole body. Seriously.

"Uncle!" As soon as he entered the door, he ran towards Xu Zizhen, and it was Li Meng who was sent out by Xu Zizhen.

Xu Zizhen also smiled, and asked, "Are you happy?"

Li Meng nodded excitedly: "It's cool, it's so cool, that thing..."

Xu Zizhen suddenly coughed and interrupted his words: "Cough... why don't you wash your face with cold water and calm down."

Li Meng suddenly came to his senses, and sneered: "I'll go right away, I'll go right away..." Then he turned around and ran towards the backyard, and turned back after two steps, "Uncle, isn't Duo Qi here?"

Xu Zizhen was taken aback: "I didn't see you, what's the matter?"

Li Meng was even more stunned: "Isn't it? I heard that she went to Bianjing to celebrate the new emperor's enthronement, so she left a long time ago. Didn't she come to Yingtian Mansion to see you?"

Xu Zizhen suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem. This time, there was Tubo who went to Bianjing to congratulate him, but he did not see Doki Zhuoma, but the Ministry of King Ali. He thought that Tubo was slow to receive news, so he came to It was too late, but now Li Meng told him such news.

After pondering for a moment, he dragged Li Meng to the backyard, came to an empty corner, raised his head and shouted: "Seventeen."

Xu Shiqi responded, "Master."

Xu Zizhen said succinctly: "Ask the people from Tubo and Zhalang Zanpu if they did it. Now, right now!"

"Yes!" It was rare for Xu Shiqi to see Xu Zizhen look so serious, his heart tightened, and he hurriedly left.

Li Meng's face was not very good-looking, although he kept saying that Doki Dolma was annoying him all the time, but he didn't see her when he went to Tubo this time, so he felt a little empty in his heart.

Xu Zizhen asked again: "Xiao Meng, who else came with Duoqi girl, do you know?"

Li Meng said: "It is said to be Uncle Ciyang, but the envoys are led by the national teacher Song Ren."

Xu Zizhen had some impressions, the last time I met this national teacher in Lhasa, he didn't talk much, but his eyes were full of wisdom, he was definitely a smart person, and it was said that he was Zhalang Zanpu's most loyal courtier, according to what Li Meng said , They should have arrived long ago since they set off, but now they disappeared out of thin air inexplicably.

"Accordingly, the biggest suspect in the disappearance of Duoqi girl should be that General Nuqi, but I know Ciyang's skills, even with the scraps around Nuqi, they can't move them even if they use dirty tricks. Is there something else?" Xu Zizhen He touched his chin and thought about it, but couldn't think of a clue for a while.

The group of people who were lured by Xu Zizhen to steal the cannon two days ago are now in Xu's house, and they are locked up in the cellar of the mansion by Xu Shiqi. However, there will always be some time for questioning. Xu Zizhen and Li Meng can only wait for the time being. Not far from them was a big black guy, spread out in a corner of the courtyard, occupying a large area of ​​the boss.

Xu Zizhen put aside what happened just now, patted Li Meng on the shoulder and said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to come back in time, how about it, are you familiar with this thing?"

Speaking of this, Li Meng became very excited, walked to the side of the thing and said, "Uncle, only you can think of this hot air balloon. Black fire oil is a good thing, and its firepower is enough to make such a big guy fly into the sky." , I still can’t believe it.”

The bottom of this big guy is a huge wicker basket, which is very densely woven, and the wicker has been soaked in oil and then painted with black paint. Zhumi set up a round mouth, and in the middle there was a strange copper oil pot, which looked like a funnel, but it was turned upside down, and there was a small hand bellows under the copper funnel.

In fact, the principle of this thing is very simple. As long as you use a little fire medium, the mouth of the oil pot will emit flames. The sheepskin is made into a semicircle, and the flame is ignited in the center of the semicircle. The firepower will make this simple balloon inflate slowly, and then use the hand-operated bellows to blow air to control the firepower, and it will soon rise into the air.

These days, I know Kongming lanterns, but there are no hot air balloons. Xu Zizhen thought about it for a long time before he thought of making such a hot air balloon made of oil pots and oil. Today is actually just his experiment. He did not expect it to be successful. Li Meng controls the hot air balloon alone. The wicker basket at the bottom is tied to the ground with a long rope, and it will not move when it rises to a certain height. In addition, everything from the surface of the balloon to the wicker basket is painted black, so no one can see it at night. See the clues.

Li Meng's excitement hadn't faded away, and he said again: "Uncle, I think the three aunts are almost moved to tears, it's really not in vain for Third Sister Su and the others to pick so many roses."

Xu Zizhen smiled triumphantly. Before he could say anything, Xu Shiqi left and returned with a serious expression: "Master, I have asked."
