God-level prince of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 683 Everything is in order

Everything is in order.

It was close to ten o'clock in the evening.

A large number of tables have already been placed inside the Suzaku Gate.

Civil and military officials have come to Suzaku's gate and wait for Li Shimin's appearance.

They didn't understand why they were called here suddenly.

It's another battle like this.

Shouldn't they be enjoying the moon with their families at this time?

A large number of people had already gathered outside Suzaku's gate, they heard the news and came here.

"Your Majesty is here! Your Royal Highness is here!"

Li Shimin and Empress Changsun appeared, accompanied by the lovely Li Lizhi.

"Meet Your Majesty! Your Majesty the Queen!"

All the ministers said.

"Free gift!"

Li Shimin looked around, and when he saw that Li Chengqian was also there, he was about to ask what the surprise was.

At this time, Xiao Huangmen came to report.

"Your Majesty, a large number of people gathered outside the Suzaku Gate, and it was very lively. I don't know why?"

On weekdays, there is a curfew in the Tang Dynasty, but because of the big festival like the Mid-Autumn Festival, Li Shimin specially pardoned people from having to have a curfew, otherwise, who would come to see this lantern festival?
How can this festival be lively?But why gather outside the Suzaku gate?

Shouldn't the lanterns be held in the east and west cities?

What do they want to do?
Li Shimin found it very curious.

The civil and military officials felt this way even more.

Someone yelled, "Get them out of here!"

"What do they want to do?"

……

Li Shimin said:
"Go and ask! What's going on?"

"Yes!"

Xiao Huangmen was about to go out to ask for clarification.

Li Chengqian called him back.

"No need to ask! Come back!"

With this question, Li Shimin might drive them away.

We can't let them go, so what about his points?
Xiao Huangmen paused, should I go or not?He hesitated, so he had to stop first.

Li Chengqian took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty, it was my son who asked them to come."

Li Shimin asked suspiciously:
"Oh? Why?"

Li Chengqian said:
"It's better to be happy alone than to be happy with others. Being able to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with the people is a manifestation of His Majesty's love for the people! At the same time, the people can witness miracles together!"

Li Shimin thinks about it, it seems to be like this.

"What Gao Ming said is very true. You are really thoughtful!"

Li Shimin praised.

Li Chengqian comforted everyone and said:
"Your Majesty, please sit down! Just watch Erchen's performance later."

Li Shimin nodded and sat down.

And said: "Everyone sit down."

All the ministers waited to sit down. At this time, someone brought fruit, food, and red wine and white wine, etc. to eat.

It looks like today is going to enjoy the moon and watch the show.

But what is this performance?no idea.

Everyone was also attracted by Li Chengqian's words, what surprise?So many people have to be together?
When everything was in order, Li Shimin did not see any reaction from Li Chengqian.

So he asked Li Chengqian again: "Gao Ming, next, what kind of surprise do you want to give me?"

"Your Majesty, when I was researching firearms, I suddenly discovered a very gorgeous thing. This thing is called fireworks!"

Li Chengqian said that fireworks are another manifestation of gunpowder.

In ancient history, gunpowder was used for firecrackers and fireworks at the beginning, and it was not used in military affairs until later.

Li Chengqian turned it upside down this time, first the gunpowder and then the fireworks.

But no matter what, as long as you can earn points, that's enough.Whatever order it is?
"What kind of flower is a firework? But it exists like a peony and azalea?"

Empress Changsun asked.

This is a woman's understanding of flowers. When Li Chengqian talked about flowers, that was all she could think of.

This was also the first reaction of the ministers.

"What kind of flowers do you see at night? There aren't any flowers blooming at this time, right?"

"The sky is as dark as ink, so you can't see the flowers clearly, right?"

Pedantic, how can we judge from the literal meaning?

"No!"

Li Chengqian said straight.

Empress Changsun asked: "What is that?"

Li Lizhi on the side asked curiously, "Is that a flower that emits smoke?"

Li Chengqian smiled, he didn't particularly study the meaning of the fireworks, it's just that his ancestors called them that, so he just called them that.

The statement that fireworks are flowers that emit smoke seems to fit very well.

So he smiled and said: "Yes, fireworks are flowers that smoke, but they are more beautiful and bigger than other flowers. One flower can reach two miles in size, and it will fly to the sky to leave a dazzling brilliance! There are many of them If it is, it can also illuminate a piece of sky! It’s like daytime!”

One flower two miles big?Can you still fly?Can it also light up the night like the day?
Isn't this too ridiculous?Are you sure you're not bragging?

This kind of words has exceeded people's cognition, and the gods are nothing more than that
As soon as these words came out, the ministers were shocked.

Du Ruhui said: "Flowers in the sky? This kind of existence is like a fairy! If it is real, then it is a real god!"

"Your Highness, don't lie to us!"

But Yuwen Shiji said.

As for Liu Hongji, after he was fined last time, he seemed to talk less about Li Chengqian.

"When did this king lie to you?"

Li Chengqian asked back.

Yuwen Shi was speechless.

Li Shimin also asked: "Is there really such a flower that can fly in the sky in this world?"

"Your Majesty, ministers, you will know after a while."

Li Chengqian didn't know how to describe it to everyone, because this kind of thing can't be described.

Seeing is believing, what is said is really hard to describe.

"Alright! Let's see what kind of flowers are flying in the sky in a while!"

Li Shimin said.

The ministers should be.

"Hold on a moment, Your Majesty, and let your ministers go up to the tower and say a few words! Proclaim to the common people your majesty's love for the people!"

Li Chengqian would not miss this good opportunity, he had to go up and say something, otherwise how could people know that he did all of this?What about points?
"allow!"

Don't you just say a few words?

And he still praised Li Shimin, of course Li Shimin said yes.Li Shimin didn't think too much about it.

Li Chengqian, on the other hand, went towards the tower.

Above the city tower, a large number of fireworks lined up.

This time, he prepared a large box of fireworks with hundreds of rounds each.

Whatever you say, put enough.

Otherwise, how could he be worthy of the points he asked for?
Anyway, these things are very cheap, and he has as much as he wants.

When he stepped onto the tower.

At this time, the people outside Suzaku's gate were already very noisy.

They looked at the city tower, except for the lights on it, nothing seemed to change.Some people even wanted to leave. After all, there was no change after waiting for so long, and their patience was exhausted.

When they found Li Chengqian appearing on the tower, they cried out.

"Look, it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

The appearance of Li Chengqian caused a sensation.

Everyone focused their eyes on him alone.
