With one word, it ended perfectly.
Facing the surrounding nobles, whether they were the nobles in bright clothes, the common people in patchwork gowns, or the countless women of the Tang Dynasty, countless people expressed their admiration and amazement.
During the parade, Tang Sufan puffed out his chest in humility and said, “Tsk, tsk, is this what it feels like to be an idol?”
Needless to say, it’s really a bit elated~
Even Zhang Cai next to him was feeling shy, his face was red, and he was flattering all the way without stopping at any time!
He was worthy of being a low-level psychic who was involved in the officialdom. Tang Sufan felt ashamed of his ability to talk so much.
At this time, Tang Sufan's face turned gentle, as if he said it in a bad way.
"Okay, okay, Zhang Cai, we have to be quiet when your Majesty is on parade, otherwise we might be stealing the limelight from His Majesty~"
Zhang Cai:......
After he finished pretending to be so modest, Zhang Cai could only respond with a dry smile on his face.
It's just you, you are the master, you have the final say.
"Master Tang has unrivaled literary talents and unparalleled sages and sages. However, I ask Master Tang to support the villain more in the future. The villain is willing to go through fire and water for the grown-up without any hesitation~"
"Easy to say, easy to say~"
Tang Sufan waved his hand casually with a shy face. This officialdom is like carrying people in sedan chairs. Although his father-in-law is the emperor, he is not proud. Being an ordinary, ordinary little marquis is enough~
Just as the poem just described, fish and dragons danced all night, and Chang'an tonight was noisy and lively.
Today's Holy Emperor's parade motorcade continues to move forward with a lot of noise.
Everything was carried out in a jubilant and lively atmosphere.
In less than half an hour, the parade passed through the entire Zhuque Street.
Li Shimin's agitated mood slowly calmed down, the corners of his mouth were almost frozen from laughter, and his hands were almost numb and numb.
He must set an example for the people of the world to be close to the people. Seeing those countless people, Li Shimin had to forcefully support him.
Immediately, with great momentum, the parade turned eastward.
After leaving Zhuque Street, the road on this street is naturally much narrower than Zhuque Street.
The formations of the Imperial Guards on both sides of the parade also looked like they had been rehearsed in advance, changing from two columns per row to one...
The length of the team was also stretched longer.
At this time, there was intensive beating of gongs and iron drums!
In front, the common people were performing the lion dance.
It is also the predecessor of lion dance in later generations.
So far, the lion dance originated from "driving away Nuo".
In ancient times, the ancients invented "Nuo".
"Driving Nuo" gradually evolved into the modern lion dance. In addition to being performed in villages, the Nuo lion dance is also performed in ordinary people's homes. While exorcising plague ghosts, it also has the task of sending blessings and praying.
Later in the Tang Dynasty, there were many documentary evidences.
"Taiping Le" in "Li Bu Ji" of the Tang Dynasty is also called "Five Directions Lion Dance" or "Lion Awakening Dance".
They are all special exorcism rituals.
This kind of traditional liveliness among folk customs is naturally a common occurrence in Chang'an.
Today, perhaps because the Holy Lord is traveling, there are more and more various rituals to drive away Nuo, and even people with all kinds of strange masks are everywhere...
In the chariot, Li Shimin held the hand of his eldest grandson Wugou and watched the lion dance with surprise.
Following behind were some scattered exorcists wearing strange masks, dancing strange dances, all part of the exorcism ceremony.
It is also part of the culture and customs of the Tang Dynasty.
"Mr. Guanyin, I really hope that the sun and the moon in our Tang Dynasty will shine brightly together, and the people will be safe. We can enjoy this scene every year, and fulfill the people's wishes every year!"
Li Shimin's eyes were flashing with a mixture of lanterns and various folk dances. When he saw this, he couldn't help but said as if he had some enlightenment.
The country is in peace and the people are in peace, and congratulations from all directions.
It's just Li Shimin's greatest ideal!
The eldest grandson Wugou smiled heartily.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. The Tang Dynasty has gone through many hardships, and finally the joy will come to an end. As long as your Majesty devotes himself to governing the country, and with a wise and wise emperor like you, why worry about the failure of the Tang Dynasty?"
Li Shimin smiled warmly, and with interest, he gently held his queen's hand and joked.
"Guanyin Maid, when will you learn the words of those flatterers and try to make me happy?"
The eldest grandson Wugou naturally knew that his second son was really joking, so he smiled tenderly: "Your Majesty, these are not flattering words, I am speaking from the bottom of my heart, and I can agree with them~"
"Hahaha, with my Queen's auspicious words, our Tang Dynasty will surely prosper as before and live up to its destiny!"
Li Shimin smiled boldly, put his arms around his queen's shoulders, and admired this folk custom.
The couple's teasing made Chang'an even more colorful during the Lantern Festival...
Um~
What is this?
Why are you jumping so scared?
Later, when Tang Sufan saw various exorcism dances, his face was slightly strange unconsciously, and he was already complaining in his heart.
No matter how you look at this unique dance, coupled with the extraordinarily eye-catching mask, Tang Sufan, a modern man, cannot appreciate it.
It’s not that I can’t appreciate it, but it’s just that this big festival is so lively and joyful. It’s somewhat incompatible with the celebrations of setting off firecrackers, lion and dragon dances in later generations~
It seems that history still needs time to evolve~
I watched a group of people jumping in front of me, dancing with a strange flag, and shouting words that I couldn't understand at all.
The meaning of this exorcism is to get rid of evil spirits. Why do you behave like evil spirits? This folk custom is a bit ungrounded and grounded to the underworld.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Tang Sufan's mind, and a certain eye-catching Olympic ceremony that he had watched in his previous life resounded.
That's right, it was made by those little turtle bastards from a country where they lived a good life.
Tang Sufan immediately shook his head and said with a tsk and eyes.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is helping them find their ancestors~ Those bullies should learn our customs after all~"
Amidst the peaceful bustle...
The whole country celebrates and the saints parade.
At this time, the parade team came forward, two pairs of exorcism teams of dozens of people, each holding a flag, and the scale was much larger than the others...
Li Shimin didn't take it seriously, and enjoyed admiring it with his queen.
suddenly!
A cold light exploded in Li Shimin's peripheral vision!
Then, an arrow with the sound of rushing wind came towards us!
As the horse emperor back then, a feeling that had not been felt for many years suddenly swept over my heart!
Li Shimin's eyes suddenly shrank in an instant! Exhale subconsciously!
"Guanyin..."
Li Shimin exclaimed that before he could even complete the attack, the arrow was already heading straight in front of him!
With a lightning-like reaction, Li Shimin's body turned around quickly!
The arrow directly cut through the sleeves of Li Shimin's dragon robe, brought out a large piece of yellow cloth, and nailed it directly into the chariot behind!
The eldest grandson Wugao's beauty instantly turned pale, and he rushed towards Li Shimin!
Li Shimin's vest suddenly became cold, and his hands and feet were cold! Eyes full of fear...
But in this flash of lightning, Li Shimin still hasn't recovered from the frightening cold.
An urgent call came from my ears.
"His Majesty!"
I saw Changsun Wugou rushing toward Li Shimin at this moment!
call out!
call out!
Two rays of cold light suddenly struck, and under Li Shimin's almost crazy eyes at that moment, a prison arrow struck directly at his chest.
And Changsun Wugou happened to pounce on Li Shimin's side...
"Guanyin Maid!!!"
Poof~
Another bang!
Another arrow...
A shadow of a sword passed by. Li Junxian reacted with horror on his face and used the fastest sword speed in his life!
Li Shimin blocked the arrow in a flash of lightning!
But although the arrow was blocked by the sword, it only deviated from its path. It still whizzed past Li Shimin's head with the sound of howling wind!
He disappeared straight behind Li Shimin...
But when Li Junxian looked back, even though he had practiced martial arts for many years, Li Junxian was still so frightened that his face turned pale!
"Escort!!!!!!"
In the hustle and bustle of life, the guard near the dragon chariot shouted almost hoarsely!
Your Majesty has been attacked!
As this word of escort spread, it immediately touched countless hearts and suddenly tightened them!
The entire parade was accompanied by the sounds of escorts from front to back.
The whole street was suddenly shocked!
The countless Imperial Guards, Qianniu Guards, and even the Jinwu Guards all moved with all their might with horrified expressions on their faces.
Tang Sufan, who was looking at the excitement around him with a funny look on his face and kept complaining in his heart, was still stunned for a moment. He was completely stunned and saw the imperial guards all around him moving forward in unison!
At this moment...
After the guard in front called out the escort, dozens of armored Qianniu Guards set up a human wall directly in front of Li Shimin.
Just after those three extremely powerful arrows passed by, there was another rain of arrows!
The cold light is dazzling and the wind is howling.
However, this group of arrows are much smaller than the three arrows just now!
And that surrounding.
suddenly!
There were many "folks" wearing masks who were just holding an exorcism ceremony.
They turned around, wearing masks, and some took out blades from the strange and wide costumes and props, and some of the ones nearby who had just performed a lion dance lifted off the huge lion's head.
Draw out the blade and attack the dragon chariot directly!
"The traitorous emperor is in power, he kills his brother and imprisons his father. Humans and gods are outraged, and heaven and earth cannot tolerate it!"
"The traitorous emperor is in power, he kills his brother and imprisons his father. Humans and gods are outraged, and heaven and earth cannot tolerate it!"
"The traitorous emperor is in power, he kills his brother and imprisons his father. Humans and gods are outraged, and heaven and earth cannot tolerate it!"
Among the countless desperadoes, each of them shouted neat slogans desperately, and rushed forward as if they were desperate.
They all know that at this time, there are many people and chaos, which is the best time.
Not to mention the terrain, a whole team of guards is now surrounding and protecting Li Shimin. On this long and narrow street, it will take dozens of breaths at least!
And this period of time will be a time that they cannot afford to miss!
"kill!!!!"
"kill!!!"
"kill!!!"
The sudden killing sound scared countless people, their faces turned pale, and they subconsciously fled in all directions! The whole street was in chaos in no time!
The noisy and joyous street that had just been filled with gongs and drums suddenly turned into a chaos of shouting, killing, and fleeing in all directions.
And at the dragon chariot!
Dozens of thousands of cattle guards formed a human wall, but soon they fell in front of Li Shimin one after another!
People around you are constantly filling in!
Because on the roof, which was only a few dozen feet away, dozens of archers suddenly appeared from top to bottom, shooting arrows towards this side.
This distance just took advantage of the geographical advantage. From top to bottom, they could just reach the position of the dragon chariot.
And even if the guards below want to shoot them, it doesn't matter whether the distance is high enough or not, the imperial city guards at least don't dare to shoot arrows randomly!
Because this is Chang'an and this is the Lantern Festival! Chang'an has the most people at the end of the year!
So, they have plenty of time~
Therefore, the only thing left to do was to build a human wall for Li Shimin at the dragon chariot! As for the guards wearing armor and holding shields, it would take a while to get close because of the huge crowd.
For the time being, I can only use this body to defend Li Shimin from enemy attacks.
During these three breaths, Li Shimin's confidants at the front suddenly looked horrified!
They all wanted to rush forward, but were quickly separated by countless guards. The officials behind had already dispersed into a chaotic mess, without any order.
"His Majesty!!!"
"His Majesty!!!!"
"His Majesty!!!"
Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wugu and others shouted anxiously, but Li Shimin on the dragon chariot never heard this.
On the dragon chariot, Li Shimin's urgent and distressed voice came.
"Guanyin! Guanyin! Guanyin!!!!"
As the empress, the eldest grandson Wugou blocked the fatal arrow for the current emperor Li Shimin.
That arrow hit Changsun Wugou's fragrant shoulder.
Bright red and dazzling...
Li Shimin's eyes were almost crazy, and he wanted to kill people and remove their bones!
"Guanyin maid, Guanyin maid! Come here, send the imperial doctor! Send the imperial doctor!"
At this moment, Li Shimin was like a crazy person, and he couldn't even care about the constant enemy attacks at this moment.
He called the imperial doctor directly. Now that Li Shimin was filled with fear and panic, he only had one thought, and that was to save his queen!
At this time, the eldest grandson Wugou was lying in Li Shimin's arms.
The face is like white paper, like withered flowers, eye-catching and dazzling.
"Guanyin Maid, you are so stupid! You are so stupid!"
Li Shimin hugged his eldest grandson Wugou tightly, shouting at the top of his lungs.
Changsun Wugou looked at Li Shimin with misty eyes, but in front of him, there were only ghost images...
His mouth was murmuring like he was dreaming...
"His Majesty……"
The jade hand was slightly raised, but before it could be grasped by Li Shimin, it weakened.
"Guanyin maid, Guanyin maid!"
Li Shimin shouted twice. The bright and noble phoenix dress had been stained even redder with blood!
Even Li Shimin's hands were wet and greasy.
As a veteran of hundreds of battlefields, Li Shimin naturally knew how to prevent wounds from losing too much blood.
The big hands quickly covered Changsun Wugou's shoulders, and the madness, panic, and grief on his face were slowly suppressed.
After a burst of tinnitus, Li Shimin heard countless murderous and heart-wrenching words.
Li Shimin was furious, his eyes were like angry gods, he raised his head with cold eyes and shouted loudly!
"Kill them! Even if the whole of Chang'an is overthrown! We must catch these traitors! I will let them die without their bodies intact! Their bones will be crushed and their ashes spread!!"
That roar filled the sky with rage and chilled people's hearts!
