Rebirth of the Noble Concubine

Chapter 140 140. Lantern Dragon

"Ting Yi is not even thirty yet, and with his appearance, you know that if you feel depressed, no magic pill will work."

Helpless, she could also say this to herself. The intrigues in the royal family have been going on for most of her life. How did she get to where she is today? She didn't believe that Emperor Qi was not behind it.

For a moment, the food and wine in front of me no longer tasted good, and I fell into deep thoughts about the past.

After Xiao Tingyi left, the banquet was still lively.

Among the princes, the eldest prince is the most respected, and this time he is accompanied by the eldest prince and concubine, who has a big belly. The two of them are also dressed up in a particularly grand manner, especially the eldest prince's bulging belly. It seems that the day of delivery is not far away.

.

The Queen was worried about the grandson in her belly, so people naturally paid special attention to her.

Food, drinks, and drinks are all carefully inspected, and there is no chance of any mistakes.

After the eldest princess was born in the Li family and was a founding hero of the Jin Dynasty, Emperor Qi was quite fond of her.

"I remember the queen said you like to eat sour food. It just so happens that this time the foreign vassals paid tribute to a lot of things. One of them is called tamarind. I heard that it tastes very good, so I gave it to you. I hope you will give birth to Lin'er as soon as possible.

yes."

"Thank you for your concern, father. Everything is fine with my daughter-in-law."

Although the eldest princess was about to give birth not long ago, her complexion and energy were very good, and it could be seen that she was well nursed back to health. Therefore, she did not appear bloated or tired, but looked particularly soft in the light of the sky.

The eldest prince looked at her and smiled, then glanced at the ninth prince next to him and saw that he was drinking alone, as if he had not heard the words at all.

"Why are you here alone, Ninth Brother? This time, you must ask your father and the imperial concubine to choose a good marriage for you, otherwise your heirs will not be delayed."

He didn't say anything clearly, but it was clear that he wanted to trample on the Wei family.

Wei Lanxuan's marriage to the Ninth Prince has been known to many people for a long time, but unfortunately it was finally intercepted by the Liang family. I have to say that it is really a bit of a "pity".

After the eldest prince finished speaking, he raised his wine glass to him, and the smile on his face became more obvious.

The Ninth Prince was too lazy to talk, but Concubine Wei was very angry. She turned to look at her father, Duke Wei, with the anger in her eyes about to burst out. However, she saw that Duke Wei had a calm expression and did not seem to take this into account.

Take the words to heart.

For a time, Concubine Wei could only knock out her teeth and swallow blood, and she blamed the Liang family.

In the Moon Worship Pavilion, people were coming and going, swords and swords were flashing, but the people downstairs in Zhengde were all eagerly waiting for the lantern and dragon ceremony.

Lighting dragon lanterns is the most important part of the Lantern Festival.

In front of Zhengde Tower, lantern dragons were set up half a month ago. The four majestic dragons on the front, back, left and right are all made of small lanterns. Not only are they vivid, but they also have the aura to look down on the world.

On the night of the Lantern Festival, if you light the kerosene tank at the foot of the lantern dragon, the dragon will move in response to the sound, indicating good weather and abundant harvests in the coming year.

Therefore, many people gathered here early in the morning, waiting to see.

Feng Er and Xiao Muqian were guarding Feng Jinyao and the other three, and they had already rushed to the front. Only when you look at it up close can you see how majestic it is.

The waists of the four giant dragons can't even be hugged by two or three people, let alone being made so vividly.

I have to admire the amazing craftsmanship!

There is a mechanism on the wall of Zhengde Building, which flows out like a waterfall like a curtain of water, full of fairy spirit.

There is a spacious platform below that has been built a long time ago. Long poles are erected around it, and colorful silk brocades are hung on it.

The performance, seen from a distance, looks like gods from heaven descending to earth to add beauty and color to the bustling world.

The giant dragons surrounded a huge light ball in the middle, and the dragons flew all around, which was quite spectacular.

Placed inside are luminous pearls from the East China Sea. The faint fluorescent light makes the beads look like they have fallen from the sky, bringing with them a sense of peace.

"I heard that after the fire oil tank is lit, the dragon will rise into the sky and four dragons will snatch the bead."

Feng Er had seen it many times and naturally knew what the dragon was used for, so he explained it to everyone.

"Oh? What happens if you get it? What happens if you don't get it?"

Xiao Muqian left Dongdu City when he was a child. He grew up in Liangzhou all these years, so naturally he doesn't understand the rules.

Feng Er, on the other hand, smiled and continued to explain, "One dragon represents one side of the Jin Dynasty, southeast, southeast, and northwest. Whichever dragon king grabs the beads means that there will be a bumper harvest this year."

It turns out that this is the case, Xiao Muqian suddenly realized, but in his heart he felt that it was just to entertain the people, and he might not take it seriously.

Amid the roar of the mountains and the tsunami, soldiers in brocade uniforms stepped forward and lit the kerosene tanks everywhere. As soon as the glowing flames touched the kerosene in the tanks, they ignited and rushed over one after another. Soon,

It ignited the excitement of those present.

As expected, the giant dragon moved in response to the call. Its head was high and it made a roaring sound. It was solemn and solemn. Its four claws were sharp and its body was swimming.

The people were very excited. They saw the four giant dragons starting to move towards the dragon ball. They all stared at it intently, fearing that they would miss the excitement if they were distracted.

"Such a big battle, it's true that only I, the Great Jin Dynasty, can do it."

Bai Siruo looked proud and felt happy to live here.

The Dragon King representing the South arrived in front of the dragon pearl with lightning speed. The dragon opened its mouth and prepared to swallow the pearl. Unexpectedly, the Dragon King from the West took the lead and went around to the bottom, taking advantage of it.

Unprepared, he opened it and swallowed it himself.

When the beads were snatched away by the Dragon King of the West, the people in the audience were excited and shouted long live the mountain.

Emperor Qi, who was still tasting the delicious food, heard this voice and his face became more and more happy.

"Which Dragon King will win the pearl this year?"

"Your Majesty, you are the Dragon King of the West."

"Okay, okay, God has predicted that there will be good harvests in the southwest, northwest and other places this year."

"The kindness of the Heavenly Family is due to your father's good management of the Jin Dynasty, which is why we have this auspicious omen. I sincerely wish that the Jin Dynasty will be prosperous and that all the people will be safe and peaceful."

"Okay, what the eldest prince said is good. The people are in peace, and I, the emperor, can do this to be in peace."

When the eldest prince received this praise, he knelt down and shouted loudly, "Long live my father, long live, long live, long live."

Then all the clan members and ministers followed suit and shouted, "Long live your Majesty, long live, long live, long live."

Emperor Qi's eyes were so full of smiles that he looked at the queen with approval and relief several times.

The bad temper that Concubine Wei had suppressed for a long time has finally come out. So what if she is favored? What if her son has a military career?

In the end, she was the only queen who stood here with the emperor and was worshiped by all the people.

The last person to sit in that seat was her son.

When I thought of this, the smile on my face became much more sincere.
