The Shangyuan Festival is the carnival of the Tang Dynasty, and Chang'an, the capital of Beijing, has become a city that never sleeps.

Ordinary people play when they finish eating, sleep when they are tired of playing, and continue to eat, drink, and indulge when they wake up, however, some people in important positions cannot be like ordinary people, others have to stick to their posts when they are happy, and they can not rest and belated celebrations until the next duty.

Cui Yuan is the one who wants to stick to his post.

As the leader of the most mysterious bad people in the Tang Dynasty, Cui Yuan has a heavy responsibility, and he has been constantly dispatching in the dark from the beginning of the Lantern Festival to prevent accidents, and the most nervous thing is when Li Longji is watching the lanterns in the city tower and the lower city tower, this is the time when the protection force around him is the weakest, and he needs the bad people to protect him secretly, so as not to give the bad people the opportunity to harm the emperor.

waited until Li Longji returned to the palace to rest, and the lantern festival came to an end temporarily, and Cui Yuan couldn't rest at this time, because he had to entertain a brother who came from afar.

One of the three tigers of the Boling Cui family, Cui Wei who was born in a big house.

After Cui Wei's term of office as the assassin of Songzhou ended, he returned to Beijing to report on his work, and went to the third brother Cui Yuan's mansion as a guest to exchange and discuss some information.

During his tenure as the Assassin of Songzhou, Cui Wei did a good job, and the assessment of him by the officials was excellent, and he had the opportunity to serve as the Assassin of Shangzhou.

The two brothers were in the pavilion in the back garden of Cui's house, drinking and chatting.

It's all my own family, and there are not so many rules.

In Boling, Cui Yuan has the best relationship with Cui Wei.

As people get old, their ambitions slowly retreat, and as they talk, like many old people, the two old people began to boast about their grandchildren.

Cui Weixing said excitedly: "Third brother, you don't know, this time Xingjia wrote a poem, Mr. praised it, Mr. Wang, you know, known as the science field, he said that Xingjia's level can participate in the imperial examination, and there is an eighty percent chance of success." ”

"Yes, it's very high, so it seems that our Boling Cui clan is going to have another character again." Cui Yuan echoed.

"Hehe, the road is paved for him, whether he can get ahead depends on his creation, by the way, Xingcheng's qualifications are down, at most half a month, he will go to the country to study, third brother, you will have to work harder at that time."

"Hehe, Xingsheng's relationship with my uncle is better than the relationship with you, my eldest father, I have already received his letter from him, and the wing rooms are prepared for him, just waiting for him to move in." Cui Yuan said with a smile.

Cui Wei laughed: "That's it, these little guys sometimes give people a headache." ”

said it was a headache, but in fact he was showing off, Cui Yuan was a little unhappy, he who had always refused to admit defeat rolled his eyes, and then pretended to say casually: "Yes, none of these juniors are worry-free." ”

"No, Shu'er has always listened to you, so it's not worrying?" Cui Wei said a little strangely.

Cui Yuan pretended to be a little embarrassed and said: "I mean Shu'er's future husband is too high-profile, saying that he wants to build a solid bridge for Boling, and there is no stop in Chang'an. ”

It is said that the son-in-law is half a son, and the grandson-in-law is also half a grandson, Xingjia and Xingsheng are both Cui Wei's grandsons, seeing his brothers showing off their grandsons, Cui Yuan is not far behind, there is no grandson, he also brought his future grandson-in-law Zheng Peng.

Cui Wei's two grandsons are not yet famous, and his grandson-in-law are both generals with knighthoods, not inferior to you.

"Zheng Peng is good" Cui Wei said with some envy: "I got such an achievement at a young age, my whimsical ideas are endless, I can think of changing Kong Ming lanterns into hot air balloons, and I also think of using hot air balloons to make lanterns, especially the emperor's weight, the future is limitless, those little guys in my family who are not talented, they can't compare to his one hand, the third brother has this good son-in-law, to be honest, he is really a little jealous of his brother, but..."

"But what?" Cui Wei wanted to speak and stopped, arousing Cui Yuan's appetite.

Cui Wei drank all the wine in the cup and pointed his finger to the sky: "Third brother, look up, isn't that your future grandson-in-law, tsk, the one next to him is the first Oiran of Pingkangfang who was rewarded to him by the emperor, it's very flowery, you have to watch it steady." ”

Cui Yuan entertained Cui Wei at his home in Shengye Fang, and lived in the same workshop as Zheng Peng, more than 100 meters apart, and he could clearly see when he looked up: Zheng Peng was standing in the hanging basket under the hot air balloon with Lin Xun'er in his arms, overlooking the scenery of Chang'an from the sky.

Zheng Peng is engaged to Lu Shu, this matter is known to the world, the wife of the main house has not passed the door, but openly flirted with a personal maid in front of millions of Chang'an people, officials and tourists?

What does this make for the face of the Bolingcui clan?

Of course, Cui Yuan's face was not good-looking.

However, this is not over, the two small hot air balloons slowly rise, one left and one right stop on both sides of the big hot air balloon, and a line of word lights is hung under the two small hot air balloons: the spring breeze is ten miles of Pingkang Road, and the bead curtain is not as good as rolling up.

Oh my God, this is not the poem that Zheng Peng wrote to Lin Xun'er that day, Lin Xun'er stood out from many oirans with this poem and became recognized as the first oiran, and now in front of so many people, she shows affection with a woman who came out of the Qinglou?

This is a slap in the face of the Boling Cui clan.

Cui Yuan clenched his fists all at once, and he wanted to rush out and pull the person off the hot air balloon, slap him down, and then step on it with his feet.

When he was about to be impulsive, he inadvertently saw Cui Wei on the side looking at him with a smile, and quickly came back to his senses, laughed twice, and then pretended to say casually: "This kid, there are new people who don't forget the old people, and they are finally affectionate and righteous, but compared to when they were young, they are still too tender." ”

Cui Wei was a little surprised and said: "Third brother, no, Zheng Peng is your future grandson-in-law, he openly holds a servant, aren't you angry?" He is known as the first point of Pingkangfang, many Qinglou women don't want to be honest and openly tease him, you don't care? ”

"Being popular is a sign of his charm, if he doesn't have this ability, he is not worthy of being my Cui Yuan's grandson-in-law" Speaking of this, Cui Yuan said lightly: "Big brother, have you heard about Zheng Peng's scandal?" ”

Cui Wei thought about it seriously, then shook his head and said, "Don't say it, there is only the voice of the merry, and there is no name for the next work." ”

"Hehehe" Cui Yuan smiled like a harmless human and animal on the surface, but a trace of forcibly suppressed unhappiness flashed in his eyes.

In order not to lose face in front of his brothers, Cui Yuan covered his conscience and endured his unhappiness to speak for Zheng Peng, looking very calm, but at this time, there was already a lot of noise outside:

"Wow, you see, it's Zheng Dacai and Lin Da Beauty."

"What a pair of talented and beautiful women."

"The spring breeze is ten miles of Yangzhou Road, and it is better to roll up the bead curtain. This is a poem given by Zheng Gongzi to Miss Xun'er, and at this time it was released with a lantern, and Miss Xun'er was so happy. ”

"If there is a little Langjun who treats the little woman like this, the little woman is willing to live and die."

"If Zheng Gongzi doesn't dislike it, the slave family is willing to make a bed and fold quilts for Zheng Gongzi."

"What a pair of fairy couples, they are really envious of mandarin ducks and not immortals."

Looking down from the hot air balloon, the whole Chang'an is in full view, the crowds coming and going, the beautiful lanterns, the spectacular lantern wheels, the light tower, the imperial city and the palace city in the Suzaku Gate are also clearly visible, and even the woman in the Qinglou of Pingkangfang is desperately waving the champa in her hand to greet Zheng Peng and Lin Xun'er.

This moment is picturesque.

At this moment, the scenery is unique.

However, what is more beautiful than the scenery is Lin Xun'er's mood, Lin Xun'er feels that her heart is about to melt, and the whole person is fluttering, and she can only hold Zheng Peng's strong and powerful arms, for fear that as soon as she relaxes Zheng Peng's hand, she will float away.

What glory, wealth, and picturesqueness, at this moment, in Lin Xun'er's eyes, there is only Zheng Peng's existence.

Lin Xun'er believed that at this time, even if Zheng Peng told him to jump from here, he would not hesitate to jump off.

In this life, if a woman can find such a wishful husband, what more can she ask for a concubine?

"Kaoru, do you like this gift?"

"Young Master" Lin Xun'er said with red eyes: "Xun'er was born in a Qinglou, it is not worth it for you to be so good to the slave family, besides, the young master is a betrothed person, and if it is spread out, I am afraid that Miss Cui will be unhappy." ”

Zheng Peng said domineeringly: "Whether it's worth it or not, it's Young Master Ben who has the final say, no matter what they say, as for Lu Shu, she will understand." ”

"But, young master..."

"Okay, don't say anything, take a good look below, you see, how beautiful."

Lin Xun'er nodded happily, then gently snuggled on Zheng Peng's shoulder, and muttered in a voice that only she heard: "Thank you, young master, this is the most special and unforgettable gift Xun'er has received in her life."

This moment, if it were eternal, how good.

Fuel is limited, for the sake of safety, just staying for a quarter of an hour, Zheng Peng's unfinished Lin Xun'er landed safely.

Li Bai wanted to experience it with Guo Ziqi, but was bombarded away by Lan Duo domineeringly, and then pulled Zheng Bing to sit on the hanging basket happily, but when the big hot air balloon was raised, the word lamp was changed to "God bless the Tang Dynasty, Guotai and the people are safe".

After Lan Duo and Zheng Bing came down, Li Bai, Guo Ziqi, A Jun, Xiaoyin and others, with Zheng Peng's permission, took turns to experience it, even the old man Ma who was driving the car was no exception.

Everyone took their turns, and it was already the third watch, however, the number of people outside the house continued unabated, crowded densely, one by one stretched their necks, and looked at the hot air balloon with great interest.

Zheng Peng was tired for a day, and he was very tired, but at this time he didn't choose to go to sleep, but walked outside the gate, looked at the people on the outer three floors and the inner three floors, and shouted: "Everyone said, is this hot air balloon good-looking?" ”

"Beautiful." Everyone said in unison.

In ancient times, there was little entertainment, science and technology were not developed, and only immortals had the means in their imagination, but they didn't expect to see it here, and everyone admired Zheng Peng very much.

Zheng Peng glanced at everyone and said, "The brother who just said that he went home and brought his daughter to read the word lamp, is he not there?" ”
