The program of His Highness the Crown Prince leading the civil and military officials to put up lanterns in the Goldfish Pond was not made public in advance. Therefore, when he led the civil and military officials of the dynasty out of the Zhengyang Gate Gate downstairs, it caused quite a commotion in the square.
A commotion.
However, the Five City Soldiers and Horses Division, who were supporting the security of the city today, had obviously received the news a long time ago. The commotion was restored to order within a short time, and the road of the prince and others was also controlled in time, and a clean path was cleared.
Come.
When the group of people arrived at the goldfish pond, the armored officers and soldiers cleared a large buffer zone behind, and the onlookers stood with their heads and feet behind the wall of soldiers and watched.
There are a few teahouses and restaurants next to the goldfish pond, and their private rooms have been booked by dignitaries who had already gotten the news.
Originally, everyone in the Xie family thought of retreating when they saw the huge crowd.
After all, even though the officials and the people are having fun together tonight, women from aristocratic families are just like ordinary families attending the lantern festival on the street.
But it is really unbecoming to crowd around with ordinary people and join in the fun.
If there is a class of daring scoundrels in the crowd, and they take advantage of the crowd to get a hold of it, and turn around and shout out, they will lose their face.
What's more, there are so many unmarried girls in this group.
When Xie Shuhua heard Qi's words, she smiled and said, "I wouldn't have said this without any preparation in advance! Don't worry, mother! Let's wait until Sister Ying told me that their family had booked a room in the teahouse next door.
It's an excellent private room. Now that Mrs. Gao is feeling a little unwell, she can't go there, so she gave it to us."
After saying this, everyone became happy again, and quickly asked the servants to open the way ahead, heading straight to the teahouse.
Sure enough, as Xie Shuhua said, this box not only has a high terrain and an excellent view, but is also built near the water, just enough to have a panoramic view of the goldfish pond.
Mrs. Qi couldn't help but have a proud smile on her face, "Speaking of which, the Imperial Master has been in seclusion for the past few years. After coming out of seclusion, our Holy Master's health has also improved, and he has been in such a state again.
As soon as he came out, no wonder he won the Sacred Heart alone.
We are lucky enough to be able to look at the lotus lanterns in Lingxiao Palace here, and maybe we will be favored by the gods even if we make a wish."
An family couldn't bear to see Qi family's show off. Hearing this, he deliberately smiled and said: "It seems that the status of His Highness the Crown Prince is still unshakable. Otherwise, how could he arrange the lotus lantern made by the Great Imperial Master?"
Your Highness! It is said that lotus lanterns can pray for the health of the Holy One. Maybe the person who puts the lanterns can also receive some blessings."
An's words touched upon the third prince's pain point.
Such a matter of showing one's face has something to do with the Imperial Master. How could Concubine Gao and the Third Prince not fight for it.
But in the end, the prince was actually appointed, otherwise, it would be impossible for the Gao family not to even come to see him.
Anshi was deliberately mocking Qishi and Xie Shuhua.
Naturally, Mrs. Qi was unhappy when she heard this. She wanted to accuse Mr. An of arbitrarily discussing court affairs, but Xie Shuhua grabbed her by the sleeve.
Compared with the Qi family, Xie Shuhua's reaction seemed a little too calm, "Whether it is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince or His Royal Highness the Third Prince, they are both the sons of the Holy Emperor and the prince of our Daqi. Today is for His Majesty and His Majesty.
Everyone in the world is praying for blessings, let’s just follow them and pray.”
Her high-sounding appearance made it difficult for An to refute, so she just snorted softly.
The prince's chariot finally appeared, followed by four neat rows of civil and military officials in the court. Outside, there were palace officials from Lingxiao Palace wearing neat white Taoist robes, all in their hands.
Holding the lamp, it looked very majestic.
As soon as they appeared, everyone fell silent. Without anyone's instructions, everyone just followed the figure in front of them wearing the bright red python robe of the prince.
The person waiting next to His Royal Highness is the eunuch of the Chief of Ceremonies. Of course, he has an even more eye-catching identity, the Governor of the East Factory.
His face is as white as silver, without any expression on his face, his eyes are as sharp as an eagle, and his stature is two points taller than the average person. Just one look at him will inexplicably make people feel chilled in their hearts.
Relatively speaking, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was standing next to him in the same bright red attire, looked much kinder and more elegant, making people look amiable.
When the group of people arrived at the goldfish pond, they were too far apart and it was unclear what Han Jian was saying loudly, and then everyone present began to kneel down and bow down.
All the people watching on the side also saluted together, even the people in the surrounding boxes were all the same.
Starting from the prince, everyone stepped forward one by one and put the special lotus lanterns into the goldfish pond. Soon there was a layer of twinkling river lanterns floating in the water, which looked really beautiful.
After waiting for the last minister to finish, the prince touched a special lotus lantern alone and walked forward from the middle path.
The trail leads directly to the center of the lake, and there is no one there at this time.
The prince held the lamp, his figure was steady, and he walked forward respectfully.
Mrs. Yu said softly: "This lamp must have been made by the Imperial Master himself for His Majesty! That's why it has to be so solemn."
Mrs. An glanced at Mrs. Qi, nodded with a smile and said, "It seems so. Civil and military officials pray for the world. Naturally, the important task of praying for the Holy One must be given to His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Mrs. Qi just looked out the window, gazing at the figure of His Highness the Crown Prince with a solemn expression, and said nothing.
On the contrary, Xie Shuhua went to agree softly, "Auntie is right. After all, His Royal Highness is the crown prince of the country. I think only the prince can shoulder such an important responsibility!"
At this time, not only An family but also Yu family felt a little surprised.
Everyone else also exchanged glances in surprise, not quite understanding why Xie Shuhua was so optimistic about the prince all of a sudden.
However, seeing that His Royal Highness the Prince had reached the end of the path, everyone also kept silent.
As the prince put the special lotus lantern into the pool, everyone also knelt down and worshiped.
Unexpectedly, before he knelt down, he heard the sound of falling water coming from a distance.
Even though they are so far apart, they can still be heard clearly.
The people who were half kneeling quickly got up and crowded to the windows to take a look.
The one who reacted faster than them was Han Jian who stayed where he was. Everyone almost saw a red shadow under the light suddenly floating to the side of the prince.
It was only then that everyone discovered that the prince was still on the shore, but he seemed to be bending over to do something.
After Han Jian, several more guards rushed over, and there seemed to be some confusion over there.
Before they knew what was going on, all the civil and military officials here also followed.
For a moment, the entire trail became lively, but the onlookers didn't know what was going on.
Xie Shuhua suddenly said in horror: "Look!"
Everyone in the Xie family was startled by her tone and quickly looked in the direction of her finger. They saw that the special lotus lantern that the prince had just put down was now wet with water and was in the water.
Shake up.
"Oh my god!" Mrs. Qi also exclaimed, "What...what can we do?!"
It was a lotus lantern specially made by the Imperial Master for His Majesty, to pray for His Majesty's health in the coming year, but now something like this happened.
"Let's go and take a look!" Mrs. Qi greeted quickly and ran out with everyone.
As soon as I got downstairs, I heard the crowd talking in various directions.
"I heard that a girl fell into the water and was rescued by His Highness."
"Why did you fall into the water right there? Isn't there no one there?"
"I don't know! She is the eldest lady of an official family, and His Highness knows her!"
"Isn't that girl soaked to the skin? There are many guards and civil and military officials in the back, so this..."
Hearing these words, Ms. Qi felt her eyes go dark for a while, and her hands were shaking a little, but she kept comforting herself. It couldn't be such a coincidence.
Anshi and Yushi looked at each other, and both saw worry in each other's eyes.
