The people who had gathered here subconsciously made way for a passage.
Even though Chu Wang and his wife were not wearing any fancy clothes.
But the texture and material of the clothes on his body, at first glance, is the finest Jiangnan silk!
not to mention.
The auras of the Chu king and his wife are very different from ordinary people!
after all.
A person can change his appearance, but his temperament is always difficult and easy!
"Young master, don't you want to bend your bow and set up an arrow to shoot at that lantern...?!"
A middle-aged man dressed as a vendor walked up to Ning Chen.
He slightly arched his hands, pointed at the various lanterns on the towering flagpole, and continued with a smile:
"This Shangyuan night, the picture is auspicious!"
"If the young master shoots the string on the lantern paper with one arrow!"
"This lamp, give it to the young master!"
"It doesn't matter if you miss the shot, it's just for good luck, I hope the weather will be good this year and everything will be fine!"
The smile on the face of the middle-aged man is sincere from the heart.
like he said.
All the playful activities in Shangyuan Ye are actually just for auspiciousness!
Whether it's lanterns or sword dancing.
It's just a way for the common people to express their hopes and desires.
pure, natural...
Ning Chen smiled faintly.
Nodding slightly, he reached out and took the longbow from the middle-aged trader.
Bending the bow and setting the arrow, raising the head and opening and closing the eyes, staring at the string hanging from the lantern!
"Whoosh!"
Ning Chen loosened his fingers, only to hear a whoosh, and a treated arrow was shot out quickly!
next second.
The string of the lantern hanging above the flagpole was cut off by the arrow in an instant!
And the lanterns painted with lotus patterns.
Then, like a broken kite, it fell from the sky and landed in the hands of Her Royal Highness who was running to catch the lantern!
In an instant, there was a burst of cheers and applause all around!
And Ning Chen also let out a long sigh of relief, with a sense of relief that is hard to detect by ordinary people on his face!
His Royal Highness the King of Chu panicked...
Because he has never shot an arrow for so many years!
Even killing the enemy on the battlefield.
Ning Chen either went up to kill people with a knife, or ate peanuts for them with a musket!
So this was his first time bending a bow and shooting an arrow!
"Huh, at least it was shot, otherwise I would be ashamed..."
His Royal Highness the King of Chu chuckled.
Hand over the longbow to the middle-aged merchant.
He took out a few copper coins from the money pouch he carried around his waist, and threw them into the bamboo basket not far away!
"Picture auspicious, everyone Shangyuan Anle!"
Ning Chen smiled and cupped his hands slightly, and said a few auspicious words, if the people laughed and cheered...
Such a smoky day.
It is also the good day that he, the king of Chu, Ningchen, thinks about in his heart...!
Soon after.
Her Royal Highness carried several good ones in her arms, and followed her husband back home with a smile on her face.
along the way.
From time to time, he turned his head to look at Ning Chen, and his face suddenly turned red.
Ning Chen was puzzled, but did not ask.
Until the couple returned to the mansion and entered the palace.
Her Royal Highness just put down the lantern, and turned her head to stare at her husband with a blushing face.
Biting her red lips lightly, she said in a very small voice:
"Husband, it's getting late..."

Chapter 538 Chengchen: Heroes see the same thing, big brother! .
Before I knew it, another few days passed.
And it's been a while since the rulers of the countries in the Western Regions gathered to discuss the matter of dealing with the Great Tang...
Half a month!
During this entire half month, several lords of the country met quite a lot.
but.
Not long after they met, the lords of the country began to argue with each other because of their past worries and old hatreds, and started to hate each other!
more than this.
The king of Khotan still drew his waist knife in the big tent, as if he wanted to hack Qu Wentai to death!
If it weren't for Tong Yehu and others stopping him.
Qu Wentai, the lord of Gaochang who was plotted against by Ning Chen as a dog, might be beheaded with a knife...
Just as His Royal Highness King Chu had expected.
It is absolutely impossible for this group of people who have a deep hatred for each other to get together to achieve anything great!
and so.
During this period of time, Ning Chen hadn't paid much attention to the affairs of the Western Regions.
It's useless to care anyway.
Let the group of lords continue to argue with each other...!
The second year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, the 23rd of the first month.
Early morning hours.
A huge convoy slowly drove out of the Tai Chi Palace.
Drive south along the wide and flat Suzaku Avenue!
today.
All the civil and military officials of the current dynasty had to go to the fields to cultivate in person, in order to show the imperial court's intention of persuading and teaching farming and mulberry, and attaching importance to farming!
A carriage moved forward slowly.
And in these carriages, besides the Son of Heaven, those who sat were the ministers of the dynasty!
As for officials with average or lower ranks...
It can only be riding a horse, following the convoy and blowing the cold wind, slowly moving forward...
In the carriage of the palace.
King Ningchen of Chu rested his head on his elbows, dozing there as if he hadn't woken up yet...
If it weren't for the emperor's decree.
All civil and military officials and court ministers must leave the city!
Even if he was ill, he would have to be pulled over by His Majesty the Emperor to farm in the southern suburbs!
in this way.
Even if His Highness the King of Chu doesn't think about it early in the morning, there is nothing he can do...
"boom!"
Suddenly, the carriage jolted as if it was crushed by a stone.
Let Ning Chen's elbow propped on the small table slide to the side.
Not surprisingly, his head hit the wall of the carriage...!
"Fuck!"
His Royal Highness the King of Chu groaned.
He raised his hand and gently rubbed his forehead, took a breath, and lost all sleepiness in an instant.
"Ugh……"
Ning Chen sighed deeply, then patted his back with his hand.
Suddenly, I felt that it was time for me to prescribe a prescription for myself, to take some tonics to nourish Qi and blood...
after all.
With His Royal Highness Chu's tossing around at such a high frequency, maybe something really happened...
"Come on!"
"Go and call Taishi Ling Fu Yi to me, I need him for something!"
Ning Chen reached out and knocked on the wall of the carriage, giving an order in a low voice.
As for why he suddenly called Fu Yi over.
The reason is precisely because Ning Chen heard about this guy and strongly advocated attacking the Buddhist forces in China!
It can be called a typical radical...!
Since Ning Chen wants to suppress Buddhism, even reshape this sect.
Then.
In addition to money and time, what is most needed is talents in this area!
And this Taishi Ling.
Although he belonged to the prince's party in the ninth year of Wude, he offended the current emperor and him.
but.
His Royal Highness Chu, who has always been "magnanimous", will not "care about" these small grievances in the past!
After a moment.
Taishi Ling Fu Yi, who was in a daze, got into the carriage of the palace.
At a loss, sitting there stiffly...
This guy is very clear that he actually has a small grievance with His Highness the King of Chu who used to belong to the King of Qin.
But in Ning Chen's eyes.
