"You are …"
At the entrance of a small courtyard in Willow Alley, Li Yi was stunned as he looked at the handsome man who walked out of the courtyard.
Although the handsome man looked a little feminine, he didn't lose his heroic spirit. However, this wasn't the problem. The problem was that she wasn't dressed like this when he saw her in the morning. Li Yi looked at her in surprise and asked, "Why are you dressed like this?"
"This way, it won't be easily seen through."
The Goddess of Luo Shui seemed to be very confident in her male appearance and said with a little pride.
Li Yi knew that she was thinking for his sake. He shook his head and didn't say anything else.
"Let's go."
She held onto Li Yi's arm and walked out of the alley.
"Wait." Li Yi turned around and looked at her. He looked her up and down and finally stopped at a certain place. He said in surprise, "Where are your breasts?"
She immediately blushed. "Shameless …"
"Impossible. Why did they suddenly disappear? Was it just an illusion before?"
He was puzzled. His arm was gently pinched, and then he heard her extremely shy voice. "Entangled, entangled …"
On the street outside the alley, the sloppy old man looked at Fang and asked in surprise, "That thing can see the moon?"
"Of course …" Fang looked at him and said with some regret, "I wanted to call you yesterday and let you broaden your horizons. Unfortunately, I couldn't find you …"
Seeing a figure walking out of the alley, he immediately jumped off the carriage. He saw the son-in-law and a handsome man walking out hand in hand. He stood there in a daze. The next moment, he turned his head and sat next to the sloppy old man again. He said, "The moon is really big and round today. However, the son-in-law said that Chang 'e isn't on the moon. It's a pity. When I was young, I wanted to marry her when I grew up …"
…
The carriage stopped at the entrance of Furong Garden. When he got off the carriage, the handsome man's face was still a little red. He followed two steps behind Li Yi and didn't want to get closer.
Li Yi took two steps back and said, "Just be normal. Don't worry, no one will think too much …"
Fang was not interested in watching the show, and the sloppy old man was the same. After sending them in, the two of them left together.
When he entered, he casually arranged an identity for Drunken Mo in the School of Mathematics, and the guard at the door did not ask much.
Today's stargazing meeting was different from the usual banquets. There were dignitaries, officials, and local officials. There were also many members of the royal family. There were also reserved seats for the colleges and the Women's College. After they walked in, they were led to the designated seats.
Since the academy's seats were closer to the front, he had already informed Li Xuan in advance. Drunk Ink's seat was right next to him, and behind the two of them were a few teachers from the academy.
"Lord Li …"
After greeting the gentlemen, the two of them sat down. There was still some time before the banquet started. Li Yi moved closer to her and whispered.
He raised his head inadvertently and found a line of sight looking at him from the opposite side.
The new capital governor, Ceng Shichun, stared at the opposite side with his eyes wide open. He subconsciously wanted to stand up, but when he was halfway up, he remembered something and sat back down.
A person next to him asked in confusion, "Lord Ceng, what's wrong?"
Ceng Shichun shook his head and said, "It's nothing. I'm old. After sitting for a long time, my waist is a little sore. I stand up and move around, and it's much better …"
The man smiled and said, "Lord Ceng is in the prime of his life and is the mainstay of our court. What are you talking about …"
Of course, Li Yi also saw Ceng Shichun. He raised his wine glass and gestured. After Ceng Zuimo raised her head and looked at the opposite side, she instantly blushed.
"His Majesty has arrived!"
A eunuch's shrill voice was heard. Everyone in the hall stood up and bowed. The old emperor looked good today. He was accompanied by the empress, and behind him were members of the royal family. Li Yi saw Li Xuan and Prince Ning, who he hadn't seen for a long time.
The arrogant Lolita was also inside, holding Yong Ning's little hand. She turned her head around and looked around restlessly. When she saw Li Yi, she happily winked at him.
The emperor's banquet was only a symbol of benevolence. It was clearly impossible to eat one's fill and eat well at the small table in front of him.
On both sides of the hall were officials, and in the middle, there were palace maids dancing. In terms of etiquette and music, the royal family was the most interesting. Those palace maids were also selected from thousands of people. They were slim and beautiful, and even they were of the same height. Naturally, there was nothing to say about their appearance.
Looking at their dance movements, there was a kind of classical beauty everywhere. It was an extremely wonderful visual enjoyment, but after looking at it for a long time, it was a little painful …
"Where are you looking at …"
"I'm looking at Lord Zeng. He's been looking at us …" Li Yi rubbed the place where she had just pinched him and felt wronged.
"Nonsense …" She glanced at Li Yi and then put her hand back on him. But this time, she didn't pinch him. Instead, she gently stroked him and asked in a low voice, "Does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt …" Li Yi shook his head and said, "But what I said just now is true. Lord Zeng is really looking at us. If you don't believe me, look …"
Zeng Zuimo looked up and met a certain gaze. She immediately retracted her hand with a red face and lowered her head, no longer speaking.
The highlight of the day was naturally not this meal, but Li Xuan's stargazing.
Not long after, a eunuch stood up and announced that the Academy of Sciences would share the burden of the emperor. They had developed a divine object that could see the stars in the sky and correct the calendar. It could also replace the horse scouts and observe the enemy from the front. After a series of rewards for the Academy of Sciences were announced, the crowd was led out of the hall to see the true appearance of the moon and Mars.
The old emperor took the lead and walked out of the hall, and the officials naturally followed. Just as Li Yi stood up, a voice came from behind.
"Sir, sir, wait a minute …"
The proud Lolita ran over from behind while holding Yong Ning's hand. She looked at Li Yi and then at the Luo Shui Goddess who was disguised as a man, and a look of doubt appeared in her big eyes.
"Sister Zuimo …"
There was a period of time when Yong Ning was particularly clingy to her, but she recognized her at a glance. She hadn't seen the sister who could sing for her for a long time, so she ran over happily.
A look of embarrassment appeared on Zeng Zuimo's face, and she was at a loss. She thought that she wouldn't be recognized when she was disguised as a man, but she didn't expect that she couldn't even fool a little girl of six or seven years old …
The proud Lolita was surprised for a moment, then ran over and shook her arm. "Hehe, so it's Sister Zuimo. It's so fun, can you teach me how to dress as a man next time …"
"Now it's Brother Zuimo." Li Yi walked over and said, "Alright, we'll talk about this later. Let's go outside and watch the show first …"
"I didn't expect Mars to see so clearly …"
"That's right. So Yinghuo is a ball just like the moon …"
"Lord Chen, make way, make way, it's my turn to look …"
"Lord Xu, didn't you see it just now? Don't waste everyone's time …"
Outside the hall, countless people surrounded a strange cylindrical object, pointing at it and discussing it.
The stargazing event had started three days ago, and now, it had long aroused the curiosity of everyone. Those who had already gone up to watch were all surprised and surrounded by the crowd, asking questions. Those who hadn't seen it felt like hundreds of claws were scratching their hearts, and they couldn't wait to go up immediately …
"Mars …"
Cui Qingze looked at this scene, and his face darkened slightly. A bad feeling welled up in his heart.
