The ghost king and princess of Feng Qingtian

Chapter 78
People in the capital spent this New Year’s Eve under martial law, and they didn’t have the slightest sense of New Year’s. Therefore, when the martial law was lifted on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and people could walk freely in the streets again, they all had a kind of energy to make up for the New Year. The Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day has become very grand and lively.Every household put up lanterns, and some rich and gentry held lantern competitions with heavy prizes. Emperor Qianzong also ordered people to take the lanterns in the palace to the folks for display to show that they had fun with the people.The people were more excited, and all the fireworks that were not set off during the Chinese New Year were set off on this day, making the entire sky of the capital red, and the air was no longer filled with the smell of blood but the sweet smell of various snacks, and the capital was illuminated by lanterns everywhere. Like daytime.

The custom of Moqu Country is that on this day, unmarried men and women can walk around the streets to find their destined marriage, and unmarried couples who have already engaged in marriage can also meet and play together.So, after dark, Bai Ziyu drove the carriage, picked up Yun Yuhong and went out of the palace to watch the lanterns.

During this period of time, although the two of them had met a few times, they were talking about official business, and they were both very busy, and they often had to do their own things without saying a few words.Therefore, when the two met tonight, they suddenly felt like three autumns had passed.Sitting in the carriage, Yun Yuhong looked at Bai Ziyu's exhaustion, and thinking about Bai Ziyu's fatigue these days, she couldn't help but feel a little distressed, and the result of Yun Yuhong's distress was to pull Bai Ziyu to lie on her lap, He said softly: "Don't move, just sleep for a while, I will call you later."

Bai Ziyu's face turned red all of a sudden, and he struggled a few times but couldn't break free. In terms of strength, he was no match for Yun Yuhong, so he could only whisper: "Don't do this, I'm not sleepy."

Yun Yuhong said softly: "Go to sleep for a while, you will go to court tomorrow, and that will be another tough battle."

When it comes to tomorrow's matter, Bai Ziyu no longer struggles, he also has a headache, the situation is much better than before, but there are still many problems. In recent days, he has spent almost all night with Mr. I have thought about all possible problems, including how to propose the appointment, dismissal and promotion of officials, how to deal with the difficulties of Zhou Dashi and Yu Shangshu, how to propose the handling of the Liu family's affairs, and what is even more difficult is how to explain this incident to the subjects of the world. In order to protect the face of the royal family, the reputation of the Liu family, as well as the compensation for death and so on.Of course, Bai Ziyu didn't necessarily have to come forward to solve these problems. There were other officials, but most of the ministers of these major departments were imprisoned, and most of the others were on the side of Zhou University.Bai Ziyu's style of doing things is a little different from Yun Yuhong's. He strives for perfection, and he has to be face-to-face and fully prepared before doing things.Most of the time, Yun Yuhong will do it when he sees the opportunity. As long as the result is good, the process is not important.

Bai Ziyu was really tired. He thought he wouldn't be able to fall asleep, but in the end he fell into a sweet dream before a cup of tea.Looking at Bai Ziyu's sleeping face, Yun Yuhong decided to attend tomorrow's morning morning as well, and postpone the trip to the border to take over the Jinghui Army for another two days.The matter at the border is more urgent, the army has been assembled, and she originally planned to set off tomorrow, but now she feels that it is better to wait until the matter in the court is over, the army will be led by Wang Wu to the border first, and she will catch up later .Bai Ziyu is just a small magistrate. Although he was born in the Jingguo Marquis, everyone knows that nothing is equal to nothing. Such a person can't do something real without a strong backing. Needless to say, her father, Emperor Qianzong, she still Only by watching on the spot can you feel at ease.

There were more and more people on the street, but Yun Yuhong ordered the car to be driven to a different place, and finally found a quiet place to stop the car.With a wave of his hand, Yun Yuhong signaled the four little ghosts to go play by themselves, leaving only her to accompany the sleeping Bai Ziyu.

Mr. Ning was very tired these days, so he hid in the house and slept instead of coming out to join in the fun.Bai Shu didn't like to be lively, especially after Yun Yuhong found two notebooks written by former imperial physicians in the library of the palace and gave him a New Year's gift, he just focused on reading and was not interested in anything else.Lao Dao is a person who is unwilling to be lonely, but he doesn't want to watch lanterns with Yun Yuhong. In his words, he is a person who knows current affairs.But the four little ghosts still had to follow Dingyun Yuhong, so the old man could only walk on the street alone.It's just that although there are many people around, the old man still feels a rare sense of loneliness.Seeing that others were in groups of three or four, but he was alone, the old Taoist suddenly felt that the lantern was very boring and made him want to go back to sleep.But as soon as he turned around, he saw a group of men and women walking towards him, but they were the young masters of the Bai family and the young masters and young ladies of the Jingyuanhou family.The marriage between Bai Ziqi and Zhao Ruomei had already been held at the end of the year, and the marriage between the two of them was a sensation in the capital for several days at that time.The Zhao family married a dowry of 120 eight liters, which was no less grand than marrying a princess. The Marquis of Jingguo did not come back either.

The old man wanted to avoid it, firstly because he didn't like these people, and secondly because these people also didn't like him.It's just that he is alone now, so it's naturally the best policy to go.It's a pity that the old Taoist moved a little slower, but was still seen by Zhao Ruiying. Mr. Zhao shouted: "Isn't this the Taoist priest Tianshu? Why are you walking alone so alone? Does your princess apprentice ignore you?"

The old Taoist cupped his hands and said politely: "I have met Commander Zhao."

Zhao Ruomei smiled and said: "It's rare to meet the Taoist priest, if the Taoist priest is alone, why not come with us."

"No need, thank Commander Zhao for his kindness."

You will die if you don't mention the word "Commander Zhao".Can we still talk about this?Although it has not been announced to the world, none of these people know that Mr. Zhao has dismissed all the officials who were in command of the inner guards, and now he is depressed. Is it appropriate for you to slap the face like this?

Mr. Zhao couldn't help but wanted to make a move, but was stopped by Bai Ziqi.It is not wise to use force on the street, and it would be bad if something happened in an extraordinary period.So he pulled Mr. Zhao and took everyone with him to leave.

The old man was in a very good mood after winning a verbal battle, and he didn't plan to go back, but turned around and wanted to continue walking.It's just that his smug face irritated Mr. Zhao, who was depressed in his heart when he lost his officialdom, and was squeezed out by the old man when he showed up to relax. He couldn't help it, pushed Bai Ziqi away, and punched the old man.The old Taoist didn't check, and was knocked down to the ground. Bai Ziqi saw that he couldn't stop him, so he didn't stop him. Mr. Zhao punched the old Taoist again.The old Taoist has been with Yun Yuhong for several years, so he can bear this kind of beating there, holding his head and calling for help.The surrounding crowd also panicked, a group of ghost king army in black quickly rushed over, and the leader shouted: "Anyone who makes trouble, arrest them."

Seeing that something was wrong, Bai Ziqi and the others wanted to explain, but the leader was from the Ghost King's Valley. He was very familiar with the old Taoist, so naturally he couldn't see the old Taoist at a loss, so he waved his hand and grabbed him without waiting for Bai Ziqi to speak.Of course, Bai Ziqi and the others were unwilling to be arrested without a fight. In addition, they were all generals, all of them were young and energetic, and they soon fought with the ghost king soldiers.These Ghost King Soldiers were left by Yun Yuhong, and to be honest, they picked the leftovers. Compared with these generals who were trained according to the standards of generals, they were still inferior, so they quickly fell into a disadvantage.

There was a violent fight here, and there was a fight with the officers and soldiers. The people on the street made a mess and fled in all directions.This movement alarmed the four cheapskates, and the four hurried to the scene of the incident, not caring about playing the ring game anymore.The four of them were happy to see the two groups fighting.To be honest, for these two families, except for Bai Ziyu and Bai Ziren brothers, the other four little devils are not pleasing to the eye. , I always look like I am the son of Wuhou Mansion, born to be superior to others.But now the opportunity has come, to fight with the ghost king, according to Yun Yuhong's statement, it can be treated as treason.The four men were merciless, especially with the help of the martial arts master, the miserly ghost, the ghost king army took down these young masters and ladies smoothly, and tied them up with ropes.

Mr. Zhao was not convinced, and shouted at the cheapskate: "Let us go, or I will let you go around without food."

The second son of Zhao also shouted: "We are the sons of the Jingyuan Houfu and the cousin of the princess, who of you dare to touch us."

"I dare to move." A clear female voice came, and Yun Yuhong and Bai Ziyu walked side by side.It turned out that the crowd running around had awakened Bai Ziyu, and the two of them walked over together, not knowing what had happened, just in time to hear these two words.Yun Yuhong said to the crowd: "It has long been stipulated that the [-]-year-old staff should be punished for causing trouble in the street. The prince breaks the law and commits the same crime as the common people. There is nothing to say, just do it."

Mr. Zhao and the others refused to accept it, but the acupoints were tapped by the stingy ghost.A few ghost king soldiers brought some long chairs, and pressed several people on the chairs to beat them.

Bai Ziyu saw a group of people gradually gathering around him, so he said to the people: "The rebels have been arrested, folks can rest assured to watch the lanterns, as for these troublemakers, don't be afraid, even if they are the children of officials, the eldest princess It will be punished according to the law."

After hearing this, the common people felt relieved, and looked at Yun Yuhong not only with fear, but also with curiosity and respect.They have heard about the ghost king and princess. The ghost king is a legendary figure. Of course they will be curious, but after seeing the blood on New Year's Eve, the common people are more afraid of Yun Yuhong, but it is very fair to see the ghost king and princess doing things now. I have some appreciation.

Yun Yuhong naturally knew Bai Ziyu's heart, and he only felt sweet in his heart.You can't miss the beautiful scenery of a good night, so without waiting for these people to finish their walk, they took Bai Ziyu and walked towards the lantern.The two talked and laughed, pointing at the lanterns on the side of the road from time to time, their figures gradually disappeared from everyone's sight, and they could only look down on the four little devils who supervised Xing, and the old Taoist who had never been looked at by Yun Yuhong from the beginning to the end was heartbroken Slag.
