Zhang Fei excitedly rushed into Liu Bei and Mao Jie's office and said, "Brother! Go outside to see the gods!"
Liu Bei: "Looking at the gods, what kind of gods are you looking at?".
Liu Bei saw Guan Yu coming in, so he asked: "Second brother, what is going on outside?"
"Brother, many light groups suddenly burst out of General Hussar's mansion. After the light groups rose to a high altitude, they suddenly exploded into countless sparks... The people in the city were talking about it, saying that Lu Hussar was going to become an immortal!
"
After Mao Jie heard Guan Yu's words, his hands trembled uncontrollably and he almost dropped the document, "That boy... isn't he really going to leave?"
Liu Bei pulled up Mao Jie and said, "Xiang Xianxiao, let's go out and take a look!"
Liu Bei and the other four came outside the house, and just as another series of fireworks shot up into the sky!
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Seeing this gorgeous scene that they had never seen before, Liu Bei and Mao Jie couldn't help but open their mouths with shock on their faces.
Countless fireworks soared into the sky and began to explode after rising into the sky, exploding into brilliant and dazzling lights!
A colorful ball of light bloomed over Chenliucheng at this moment!
Lu Lingqi was fascinated by the sight. She finally understood why these things were called fireworks, "It's so beautiful! There are such beautiful things in the world..."
Lu Yan looked at Lu Lingqi's side face, and couldn't help showing a trace of contentment on his face.
Zhao Yun, Guo Jia, Huang Zhong and others also came out of the house and gathered in the yard.
They all raised their heads and looked at the fireworks that bloomed from time to time in the sky.
"My God, it's so beautiful!" Huang Wudie held her hands in her hands and sighed.
"Yes, it's so beautiful!" Guo Yi came close to Huang Wudie, but instead of looking at the sky, he stared at Huang Wudie and murmured.
Huang Xu picked up Guo Yi, with a threatening look on his face, and whispered: "Stop hitting my sister!"
On the main street of Chenliucheng, people from various residential areas all gathered together in unison.
They raised their heads and quietly watched the fireworks in the sky.
Although fireworks are good, they only last for a moment.
After the bustle, the roaring sounds and the brilliant firelight, in the end there was only the incomparable and profound silence of Chenliucheng.
...
The fireworks in the sky come and go quickly.
After the huge noise and gorgeous fireworks, the people in the city suddenly felt a sense of loss.
Beautiful things are always short-lived, and beautiful moments only exist for a moment...
Lu Lingqi also felt disappointed. At this moment, Lu Yan suddenly said: "In this situation, my husband suddenly wants to write a poem."
"Sir, can you also recite poetry?" Lu Lingqi asked curiously after regaining consciousness.
"Haha! Today is a good day to open your eyes!" Lu Yan searched his mind and finally recalled half of the poem, saying: "The east wind blows thousands of trees and flowers at night. It also blows down, and the stars are like rain. BMW carvings are all over the road with the fragrance of phoenixes.
The flute is playing, the jade pot is spinning, and fish and dragons are dancing all night long."
"Good words!"
Lu Lingqi didn't understand much, but Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia and others were brightened up after hearing it.
Yes, by the time the fireworks were over, these guys had guessed the culprit.
Just when Lu Yan was pretending to be in front of the girl, they found the backyard.
"Sir, you haven't written poetry for several years... I can't believe that your literary talent is still outstanding!" Xi Zhicai said sincerely in admiration.
"It's a trail, it's just a trail..." Lu Yan waved his hand awkwardly.
"Sir, are those things made of gunpowder just now? I just heard the sound of the fuse burning, and now I can smell the smell of burning gunpowder!" As soon as Zhao Yun came in, he asked Lu Yan for confirmation.
It has to be said that Zhao Yun's senses are really sharp.
Lu Yan pointed to the burned-out fireworks on the ground and said, "Yes, these fireworks are made of gunpowder."
"I never thought that a deadly weapon like gunpowder would have such a side!" Xia Houlan sighed with emotion.
"Yeah...it's really shocking."
Xi Zhicai and others were sighing at the charm of fireworks, but Guo Jia ran to the remains of the fireworks and asked: "Changsheng, are these fireworks easy to make?"
"It's pretty easy."
"Then you can't sell it for money." It was about gunpowder, so Guo Jia couldn't help but be careless.
Lu Yan nodded and said: "It cannot be sold casually, but it can improve people's centripetal force and happiness... We can still take it out and put it away during festivals and other events in the future."
"That's right..."
...
On New Year's Eve, fireworks come again.
This time, the general manager moved all the finished products out, and the fireworks were set off in the open space outside the city for more than half an hour.
Due to the huge sensation caused by the fireworks the night before, this time even the Emperor Liu Xie, the Prime Minister Cao Cao and most of the civil and military officials came from Xuchang to see Chenliu.
Because of the addition of fireworks, this year's New Year's Eve has become particularly lively.
Although the fireworks incident caused some sensation, after the truth spread, the discussion among the people gradually calmed down.
All the ghosts and gods, all the ascension, it turned out to be all Lu Qiaoqi’s tricks to coax his wife...
...
Compared with the lively New Year's Eve vigil held by the people under Cao Cao's rule, the people in Hebei and Hedong once again suffered a cruel New Year's Eve.
Countless people closed their eyes forever in the cold and hunger, and even many military officers and soldiers endured great hardships.
Yuan Tan and Xin Ping are now worried about how the people and soldiers of Qinghe County will survive the severe winter.
Just when they felt at a loss, Xinpi brought a man dressed as a wealthy gentleman to ask to see Yuan Tan.
"My lord, this is Mi Zhu, the president of the Xuzhou Chamber of Commerce, who has come specially to deliver grain and coal to my lord!"
When Yuan Tan heard that he was here to deliver something to him, he was immediately overjoyed. He quickly stood up and came to Mi Zhu and said, "Mr. Mi traveled thousands of miles to help me in Qinghe County when the time was right. I, the general, can't thank you enough!"
"I have met General Yuan." Mi Zhu was graceful and majestic. Although he was now a businessman, he was still neither humble nor overbearing in the face of Yuan Tan. "I have been ordered by Prime Minister Cao to send 100,000 stones of grain and 300,000 kilograms of grain and grass from Xuzhou to the general.
Coal... is not much, but if it is distributed uniformly by the government, I believe the people in the city can survive this winter."
When Cao Cao helped Yuan Tan, he actually wanted to win over the people.
When Cao Cao's army comes to Qinghe County in the future, the people will definitely remember Cao Cao's kindness in providing help in times of need, and the people will be more likely to surrender.
Moreover, only by helping Yuan Tan survive this difficult winter will Yuan Tan have enough energy to carry out his plan to seduce Yuan Shang after spring begins.
Mi Zhu's appearance and refreshing conversation made Yuan Tan feel very comfortable.
He pulled Mi Zhu to sit beside him and asked, "Mr. Mi, did Prime Minister Cao say when he would send troops to help me?"
"I'm just a businessman... As for military and political matters, there are other people who have come to contact the general. Please forgive me."
Professional people do professional things. Yuan Tan thought that this was indeed the case, so he nodded and said: "Someone is being rude... I hope Mr. Mi can express my gratitude to the Prime Minister for me."
"I will definitely bring the general to... to say goodbye!"
Xinpi and Mi Zhu left.
Xin Ping instinctively felt that something was wrong, but out of trust in his brother, he still did not go into details.
Watching Mi Zhu leave, Yuan Tan couldn't help but sigh: "People say that Prime Minister Cao is deceitful, but I think Prime Minister Cao is a gentleman with a warm heart and ancient ways!"
