reborn child bride

Chapter 597 Lantern Festival (2)
Not long after, he was caught by a juggler again. An eight or nine-year-old child kept turning somersaults, and Xiao Zhizhi counted to more than 30 in one breath. Count them before they came to see.Xiao Baozi began to dance "I will, I will too" and waited until Xiao Zhizhi counted to five, and he shut up.

Shen Ji saw that they enjoyed watching, and that the children in the venue were really not easy, and it was a big festival, so he asked Ji Bai to take out a piece of two taels of silver and hand it over, it looked very eye-catching on a plate of copper plates.The juggler kept saying a few auspicious words before walking away.

Shen Ji and his group continued to move forward, and saw many interesting gadgets along the way. Shen Ji and Xiao Zhizhi both bought a lot. Xiao Baozi has always followed suit. When his mother and sister picked things, he also To pick.The servants beside him quickly hugged a bunch, and Shen Ji picked out two delicately tied Jade Rabbit lanterns for the siblings to carry.

The streets were full of prosperous scenes, Wei Ying looked at the bustling lanterns on the side of the road, and suddenly sighed softly.Shen Ji knew what was on his mind. The young man had the ambition to rise to the top of the clouds, but now he was kicked aside by the new emperor, and he only cared about things like sacrificial banquets.Seeing that the government affairs are smooth and the capital is full of prosperity, it is obvious that there are not many people with themselves, and there are not many without them, and I feel discouraged in my heart.If he hadn't had deep scruples, he might have resigned and returned to his hometown.

"At home, you are an indispensable pillar." Shen Ji said softly.

Wei Ying nodded, "Don't worry, I won't just get depressed."

After walking for a while, I suddenly saw that there was a lot of excitement ahead, many people crowded together and looked up at the lantern. After asking people to inquire, they found out that it was a lantern sent by the palace this year.People heard about it and naturally flocked to it.

Wei Ying didn't want to be crowded to see, so even if Little Baozi and Xiao Zhizhi wanted to see it, they didn't bother.

Shen Ji had no choice but to coax: "Nowadays people are crowded and trampled, let's go to the Luran Building and see it on the second floor." This place is not far from the Luran Building, Shen Ji pointed to them and told them.Little Sesame and Little Baozi just gave up, Xiao Baozi touched his stomach, and said to Shen Ji: "Mother, my stomach is empty."

"Okay, I'll ask the chef to prepare delicious food for you when we arrive at the Ranlou. Don't mention it, I'm a little hungry after shopping for a long time. Are you hungry, Xiaozhima?"

"A little hungry."

"Then let's go quickly."

A group of people went to the Luran Building not far away, but the street suddenly became chaotic.Wei Ying was walking ahead for no apparent reason, but he dashed back, protecting Shen Ji and the others behind him, and the servants beside him, as well as the masters of the Wei Mansion who were still looking around, hurriedly surrounded him , Protect the mother and child three groups.At this time, the street was in chaos, and many people didn't know it, but seeing others fleeing desperately, they followed suit.There are already many people on the street, so it is inevitable to trample on them.There was noise and the crying of children one after another.

Wei Ying turned her head and saw that Shen Ji and Xiao Zhima Xiao Baozi were moving under the eaves of the street under the protection of others. There were so many people that they would not be able to scatter them, and there would be no danger.Xiao Baozi and Xiao Zhizhi didn't know why, so they stared at the chaos in front of them with wide eyes.

Shen Ji knew what Wei Ying was thinking, so he nodded at him, and Wei Ying said: "Ouyang, Guan Meng, Liu Zhun...you all come with me!"

He took people to the street, looked at a stone platform, stood up, and shouted: "I am the former Jingzhao Yin Wei Ying, you and the people should stand where you are, don't move, don't crowd, otherwise countless people will be trampled and killed. If you are old, sick and weak, you can stretch out your hands to support it, which is also a merit." While he was speaking, Ouyang, Guan Meng and Liu Zhun brought a group of people to maintain order.

Wei Ying asked again: "Where are the servants who maintain order in Jingzhao Mansion?"

"Master Wei, I am waiting here, please give me your instructions!"

"Let the people not walk around indiscriminately, while trampling innocent people. Pay attention to fire prevention, and send people to the street to see if there is any noise in the street, there are countless people flocking." The chaos did not start on this street, but on a nearby street. Countless people flocked to the street.

There are people led by Ouyang and others, plus the guards of Jingzhao Mansion who are on duty in this street, and when Wei Ying was appointed as Jingzhaoyin, the security of the capital was good, and the people praised it, so the official voice was very prestigious, and many people stopped when they heard it. step.For a while, the chaos gradually stopped.

Wei Ying then sent someone to Linjie to help with the order, and the sudden chaos was finally subsided.

Wei Ying jumped off the stone platform, and the people around gave way to thank him, and some people knelt down and begged him to help find his son who was just lost.Wei Ying explained the servants who were evacuating the people at this time.After a while, someone came over with a white and fat child in their arms. The woman who lost the child was very grateful and said that she would go back and make a longevity tablet for Wei Ying.

Wei Ying smiled and said: "I am an official of the imperial court. It is my duty to relieve the worries and difficulties of the people. There is nothing to say thank you. If you are slightly injured, those who are on the way will help you back. If you are seriously injured, the people nearby Just help to send it to the hospital."

The people on the street agreed to disperse in twos and threes, and also helped each other as Wei Ying said, so that the guards would not go to the side to help, and the wounded would be left unattended.Some people went home after this incident, but there were also those who were not afraid of trouble. Seeing that there were fewer people on the street, they just took the opportunity to go shopping again.

At this time, there was someone upstairs looking at him, with a complicated face on his face.

"Your Majesty, the people below are fine, so don't worry." It was Mr. Ling, the new Minister of Staff who spoke.

It turns out that the person standing upstairs looking past is the new emperor who went out of the palace in micro-clothes to have fun with the people. When the street started to be chaotic, he was listening to "The Song of the Twelve Golden Hairpins" downstairs in the private room of the Luran building.Just as he was about to send people down to maintain order, he saw Wei Ying standing on a high place not far away and yelling loudly. For a while, the officers and people listened to him very much, and the order on this street was quickly maintained.Looking under the eaves, I also saw Shen Ji standing with his children.Although I can't see the expression clearly, I think I am very proud.Seeing the big from the small, Wei Ying is indeed a cadre, and he is very prestigious among the people and the officers who have followed him.The momentary reaction of the guards and the people is very telling.

"Go and ask what's going on?" On the first Lantern Festival when he ascended the throne, if there was a big riot and many people were trampled and killed or injured on the street, it would be a discredit.If someone did it deliberately, then naturally it cannot be lightly indulged.

Here, Wei Ying also sent half of the family members, and Ouyang took them to help, and he took Shen to send a group of people to Luanlou.After being in a hurry just now, Xiao Baozi was very excited to see his father who was quickly handling things quickly, but now he looked listless on the road.It turned out that after the excitement, I felt my stomach was more empty.A group of people came to Ranlou talking and laughing, saying that they would fill his belly right away.

Although the business in the building is good, after all, today is the Lantern Festival.However, Shen Ji reserved a private room for his family upstairs, and the family sat down upstairs and continued to watch the lights.There were many fewer people below, but many came up from other places.
