Chapter 835 I Want to Grow Old with You
The Lantern Festival in Beijing was as lively as in previous years. The difference was that the theme of the entire festival was to pray for the recovery of lost territory and victory in the battle for the northern wing.
The lights in the flowery streets are as bright as day, and the biting wind and snow cannot stop the joyous songs of the prosperous times.
Tourists flocked in and the hawkers on the street could be heard everywhere. Tea houses and taverns were full of guests, toasting and chatting happily.
It is the image of a peaceful and prosperous era.
On a high platform in the distance, an actor gently stroked the strings of a musical instrument; the passionate and high-pitched music blended with the wind and snow.
It's a war song! The sound of the piano is as powerful as the sound of iron horses and golden swords.
The crowd below the stage stopped to listen.
The music became more and more passionate. The actor's fingers moved quickly on the strings, as if thousands of troops were galloping on the battlefield.
There were fireworks and crowds of people, each waving a small flag representing the North Wing.
Red everywhere!
The lanterns flicker and shine, some are lotus flowers, some are auspicious beasts, and the interweaving of light and shadow makes it seem like a fairyland.
Even the masks were mostly made to look like the thousands of soldiers of the North Wing, as if those heroes who bravely fought on the battlefield were now standing in the crowd, celebrating with the people.
A special messenger from the army rode in from outside the city on horseback, with the Dongyu Guards leading the way, gongs and drums beating loudly, shouting all the way: The North Wing won a great victory in the first battle!
Great victory in the first battle of the North Wing! Great victory in the North Wing! Great victory in the North Wing! The people cheered and stood on both sides of the long street to make way.
The whole capital city was in an uproar.
A group of special warriors, wearing special armor, marched towards us with heroic steps.
They were a group of truly auspicious beasts and dog officials, marching in an orderly manner through the center of the street.
Leading the way was a big black dog, looking majestic, with its head held high and chest puffed out, and its steps straight.
A masked little girl in the crowd shouted excitedly, "Night Baby!"
The big black dog looked towards the voice, paused slightly, but continued walking forward.
Suddenly someone whispered that the dog... looked like the dog that His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin wanted to steal one year!
Another person said, don’t all big black dogs look like that?
"No, no, no, this big black dog is different. It's really different."
As if in response, the big black dog roared towards the sky.
The group of dogs behind it all roared towards the sky, as if celebrating the great victory in the first battle of the North Wing.
An official from the Ministry of Rites came out to explain that these dogs would soon follow the emperor to the war.
The people stood in awe.
In the crowd there was a woman wearing an old woman's mask, holding a little white cat in her arms. She stood there quietly without saying a word.
It seems like a dream.
She seemed to see that the man following the Ruigou team was still wearing the old man's mask.
He looked at her and she looked back at him.
The eyes were as dark as ink, so thick that it could not be dissolved.
She smiled behind her mask.
That year, he could no longer hide his little thoughts.
He also smiled behind his mask.
That year, he never thought of hiding his little thoughts.
My heart felt slightly moist.
I want to grow old with you.
Okay, then let’s grow old together.
The battle was about to begin. The couple felt very excited, which was completely different from the separation of life and death in their previous lives.
In this life, they will no longer say goodbye with "I will come back to you when I am alive, and I will miss you forever when I die."
She just wanted to say to him, "Husband, come back early, I'll wait for you to have dinner."
He seemed to answer her, "Don't worry, ma'am, I will definitely go home early."
That night, when people were solving riddles, someone recognized one of them as the charcoal seller who had appeared in a certain year.
"Wow, the charcoal seller has disappeared for several years and now he's back again!"
"Will it just be the same mask?"
"No, no, no, it's impossible. There is only one charcoal seller like him. No one else can imitate him."
"Wow, wow, the little fat guy who successfully passed the level two years ago is here too."
"Yes, yes, yes! That little fat guy! Haha, I want to laugh when I see that mask!"
No one noticed the other two runners. One of them was wearing a Yama mask and it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
The other one was wearing a pig head mask and had grown a lot taller, looking quite tall and graceful. This was of course the Ninth Prince.
He ran over and grabbed the charcoal seller, "Hehe, charcoal seller, charcoal seller, I'm Pighead Nine!"
The charcoal seller shook his hand away in disgust, "How could I not know that you are a pig-headed fool!"
Pighead Nine refused and hugged the man's arm, "Do you miss me? Do you miss me? I missed you so much during these days in the fiefdom."
The charcoal seller was aloof and didn't reply.
King Yama said, "Pighead Nine, the charcoal seller only wants his wife, so get out of here."
Zhu Tou Jiu still held his arm tightly and shook it, "I don't stop him from missing his wife. Charcoal seller, do you miss me?"
The charcoal seller was almost shaken to the point of fainting, so he could only answer against his will, "Yeah."
Zhu Tou Jiu was immediately happy, "Hehe, I knew you missed me."
King Yama stroked his forehead.
The little fat boy stroked his forehead.
The fat boy discussed with the charcoal seller, "Let me win the lantern riddle game later."
The charcoal seller said in a cold and lazy voice, "Why? I have a wife to take care of, too."
The little fat man was afraid that King Yama and Pighead Nine would hear him, so he pulled the charcoal seller aside and whispered, "Your wife has already married you..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted. The charcoal seller said sarcastically, "So you won't coax me after we get married? Well, I have to go back and tell my mother-in-law to never marry you."
The fat man laughed through the mask, but the person underneath the mask couldn't laugh: "..."
It's another day of being controlled by my son-in-law. He's about to go to war, and he doesn't even let me be happy once.
As if seeing through him, the charcoal seller said coldly, "Don't forget, you are not the only one going to the war. I will also go with the army."
Here, Pighead Nine quietly asked King Yan Luo, "Do you know where the lantern that Fatty won two years ago went?"
Yama replied, “I don’t know.”
"Aren't you curious?"
"I'm curious, but I don't dare to ask." King Yan Luo reached out and rubbed Zhu Tou Jiu's head, "I advise you not to ask."
"Why?" Zhutoujiu was very curious about who his father had in his heart after he dismissed all the concubines in the harem.
His mother told him that his father had someone hidden in his heart, very deep in his heart.
"No reason." King Yan Luo said calmly. He really didn't know who the person in his father's heart was.
He only knew that his father would lead the troops to war tomorrow. He himself had a heavy burden on his shoulders and could not slack off for a moment.
How can he keep the prosperity of this prosperous era in his hands? Prince Yama sighed deeply.
With the sound of a drum, the lantern riddle game begins.
The first few questions were easy, and everyone worked together all the way to question 50.
There are a few more powerful ones this year, all wearing ordinary soldier masks, nothing special.
As those people fought their way to question 50, Cen Yuan recognized at least two of them.
One is Qiu Zhiyan and the other is Shi Yunzhou.
When it came to question 75, Shi Yunzhou was defeated.
When it came to question 76, Pighead Nine was defeated.
Qiu Zhiyan was still there at this time.
When it came to the 80th question, King Yama also withdrew.
When it came to question 98, the charcoal seller gave up without answering. He walked over and whispered a few words to Qiu Zhiyan, who also gave up.
It should be said that this son-in-law is capable of great responsibility. Emperor Mingde was very happy. Although his son-in-law always argued with him, he still stood by him at the critical moment.
Absolutely a perfect son-in-law!
