"Hmph! Where do you think you're going? "
At the back door of the Lin Mansion, Lin Hao brought Qin, Qi, Shu and Hua along with the four servant girls and was about to sneak away. Outside the door was the prepared carriage. But who knew that a cold snort came from behind him. He was shocked and turned around. If it wasn't his father, who else could it be?
"Uh … Father! Why … why are you here? "
Lin Hao was a little dumbfounded. He subconsciously took two steps back and stuttered.
"Hmph! Why am I here? I want to ask you why you're here. It's the New Year. Why are you here alone instead of talking to your mother? "
Lin Wenyuan glared at him angrily.
"Uh … Father! I'm going to the latrine. Yes, I'm going to the latrine! "
Lin Hao was anxious. Seeing that he was about to be exposed, he could only come up with an excuse.
The four maids covered their faces and lowered their heads. They thought that their young master was really stupid. How could there be a latrine where they were now?
This person was too honest. He didn't even know how to make up a lie!
As expected, Lin Wenyuan furrowed his brows and roared, "Bullshit! You unfilial son, how dare you lie to me? Hmph! You just want to leave the city? Cai Fu, prepare the horse! Madam and I are also leaving the city! To Yanhuang College! "
"Ah? Master! Are we leaving the city now? "
The old steward behind Lin Wenyuan said in disbelief.
"Yes! Go and prepare! "
"Uh, Father, why are you and Mother going to Yanhuang College so late at night?"
Lin Hao's heart skipped a beat and he pretended to be confused.
Lin Wenyuan looked at his son indifferently. Although he was proud, he didn't show it on his face. "I'm going to do whatever you're going to do! You brat, why didn't you call your parents when you had something good? You're really ungrateful! "
At this point, Lin Hao finally understood that his father already knew that he was going to Yunshan to watch the fireworks!
"Father, you … how did you know?"
Lin Hao opened his mouth and said in surprise.
"Heh! You don't need to know that! "
Lin Wenyuan stroked his beard and proudly swaggered off. As for Madam Lin, she had already packed her things and was preparing to board the carriage and set off.
"Hmph! Little brat, you dare to play petty tricks with your father? You're still too young! "
Lin Wenyuan thought proudly in his heart.
…
At the same time, the group of Yanhuang College students who had returned to Chang 'an for the New Year began to take their families to Yunshan. They wanted to go there to watch the fireworks up close.
These students, together with their families, made up quite a crowd.
Once there were too many people, it was inevitable that the news would leak out.
"Hurry up and leave! Hurry up and leave! We're going to Yanhuang College to watch firecrackers! "
"Firecrackers? What's so good about firecrackers? "
"Oh! Those things should be called fireworks! Yes! They were fireworks! A few days ago, the rainbow-colored skylight from the Cloud Mountain was the light from the fireworks! "
"What? The skylight was made by the fireworks? "
"That's right!"
"Wang Laoer, you said that there would be fireworks at Yunshan tonight? Where did you get the news? "
"Hey! I heard it from the servants of Assistant Minister Wang next door. Their young master is a student of Yanhuang College. How could the news be fake? Now, their whole family is already on their way to Yunshan! "
"Whoa! There's such a thing? Wang Laoer, wait up! I'll go get my wife and children. We'll go to Yunshan tonight to watch the fireworks! Even if we can't enter the college, at least we can take a look from afar. It's not a wasted trip! "
"Haha! Zheng Laoer, hurry up! I'm afraid that there will be too many people and we won't be able to get a good seat! We're not the only ones who know about this! "
"Okay! I'll be right there! "
Similar conversations appeared in many shops in Chang 'an City. This was not an important business opportunity. Many people would gather their friends and go to Yunshan together after hearing the news. One person spread to ten, ten spread to a hundred. As a result, more and more people went to the East City Gate of Chang' an City. It even far exceeded the flow of people during the day.
Such a huge commotion naturally woke up many people who were interested. Those who were interested asked around in private and soon joined the group leaving the city!
The group grew bigger and bigger. It started with a few hundred people, then a few thousand people, then tens of thousands. Later on, the number of people was about to exceed a hundred thousand!
Therefore, for the first time in the history of Chang 'an City, such a strange scene appeared. On New Year's Eve, countless people did not stay in the bustling city to celebrate the New Year. Instead, they flocked out of the city and headed towards the barren Yunshan.
The Imperial Palace.
Tonight, the palace was brightly lit and decorated with lanterns and colored banners. There was a festive atmosphere everywhere.
Li Tai had set up a family banquet in the back garden earlier. The concubines, princes, and princesses in the harem all attended the banquet. However, Li Tai only ate a few mouthfuls before he found an excuse to leave. The banquet lasted for more than an hour before it ended!
At this moment, Old Li was with Empress Zhangsun in the corridor on the second floor of Taiji Palace. They were admiring the thousands of lights in Chang 'an City tonight. At this moment, a chamberlain came downstairs and whispered something to Li Tai. Then, he left quietly.
In the end, Li Tai smiled and said, "Ha! Yunshan tonight will probably be more lively than Chang 'an City. Guanyin, do you want to go take a look later? "
Tens of thousands of people in Chang 'an City rushed out of the city to Yunshan. How could Li Tai, who was in the palace, not receive the news? The chamberlain just now came for this reason.
Empress Zhangsun's eyes turned and she said softly with a smile, "I don't know where those people got the news. In this way, won't the foot of Yunshan be densely packed with people tonight? I found out a few days ago that the Marquis of Yong 'an would set off a large batch of fireworks at Yanhuang College tonight. I originally planned to go take a look tonight! Now it seems that even if we go, we probably won't be able to squeeze into Yunshan! "
"Haha! Since Guanyin wants to see, what's so difficult about that? I don't believe that Li Zexuan dares to let my empress freeze at the foot of the mountain! Men, prepare a carriage and summon the Crown Prince, the King of Han, and the other princes to accompany me! "
Li Er laughed heartily and ordered.
Actually, Empress Zhangsun wanted to see the fireworks, but Li Tai himself might not have no intention of seeing it with his own eyes.
"Yes!"
The chamberlain beside Li Tai was about to leave with the order when he heard Empress Zhangsun say, "Wait!"
"Your Majesty, Chengqian and the others have all gone with Your Majesty. Wouldn't it be boring to leave Changle alone? Why don't you bring her along? "
She was a mother after all. She could always think of her daughter first!
Li Tai clapped his hands and said, "Aye! The empress is right. Let Changle accompany you! But remember to prepare warm clothes. Don't catch a cold on the way! "
When Li Tai heard this, he was shocked and hurriedly added.
