The night gradually darkened, and the banquet in the palace came to an end.
Whether it is Su Nan's victory return or the birthday of the princess, it is a thing to celebrate. For most of the people in the imperial capital, I believe that tonight will be a sleepless night.
During the entire banquet, neither Su Nan nor the princess were present, and everyone had already taken it off.
General Su made the enemy frightened on the battlefield, and he was covered with ghost armor on weekdays. The fierce aura made ordinary civil servants almost unable to stand.
She also understands this, so if she has nothing to do, she will not appear in the court.
The emperor's attitude towards General Su was unconditional trust, perhaps because of his master, but no one knows the deeper reasons.
In fact, not much is known about Su Nan's identity.
At best, I knew that she was the apprentice of General Bai. She was strong enough to resist the Ten Thousand Army.
Some people say that she is a woman, the face under her armour is all over the country, some people don't believe such words at all, how could the ghost who slaughtered countless enemies be a woman.
All in all, opinions are divided.
Although everyone was curious about the sky fire that the emperor mentioned earlier, no one mentioned it at the banquet.
When the banquet was over, the emperor suddenly invited everyone to enjoy the night view of Linyang City on the wall of the imperial city.
Linyang is the name of the imperial capital.
When everyone climbed up the city wall and the lights of Linyang City were shining, I didn't know for a moment whether the stars in the sky fell into the mortal dust, or the lights in the world flew into the sky.
The moon is like water, and the starry sky is vast.
"It seems to be snowing."
I don't know who suddenly shouted.
Everyone looked up one after another, and saw little snowflakes falling from the sky, like thousands of stars, which made people not know where they were.
The emperor looked back, and the imperial city was also brightly lit.
"Your Majesty, I don't know when will the sky fire that General Su said will appear?"
"Yeah, yeah, I've been waiting for so long."
"It should take some preparation..."
The ministers all spoke up, and their patience after waiting for so long was a little bit unbearable.
With a faint smile on the emperor's face, he did not speak.
Like these ministers, he was also waiting, waiting for what Su Nan said about the sky fire, and whether she could really steal the sky fire.
…
As time passed, many people on the streets had already embarked on their way home. After all, not everyone had the energy to party all night.
A little girl took her mother's hand and looked around curiously. She still didn't understand the concept of celebration, and she didn't understand why everyone was so happy.
But in her small heart, the reason doesn't seem to be that important, just being happy is enough.
"Tangtang, it's already late, let's go back first, and we will come out to play tomorrow, okay?"
"Ok."
The little girl looked at the street behind her intently, and she hoped it would be like this tomorrow, and the night time would be longer.
"Come on, mother hugs you."
"No, Tangtang has grown up."
"Hmm, Tangtang is already a big girl."
The little girl hurried forward a few steps, smiling and turning her head to let the woman follow.
At this moment, she seemed to have seen something, her eyes widened slightly, and she stood there blankly.
She did see something.
She saw a beam of glow across the night sky, flying between the stars.
The people in Linyang City also stopped one after another, looking at the sudden emergence of glowing light in surprise, and no one knew what had happened.
On the walls of the imperial city, the emperor and others also saw this scene.
Because that beam of sunlight appeared from the imperial city, passed through the towering buildings, and flew directly above the night sky, with a thunder-like sound, directly blooming.
What kind of scene is that?
Any words are difficult to describe at this time, even those civil servants who can talk about a little thing for a long time on weekdays seem to be lacking in words at this time.
They just stared blankly, watching the light illuminate the entire night sky.
That glorious moment was enough to compete with the stars and the moon.
The brilliance has not dissipated, and there are countless light beams dragging the colored tail flames to rise. The bright brilliance dyes the entire night sky brightly and reflects in everyone's eyes.
They can hardly tell whether the Linyang tonight is in the world or in the sky.
…
The princess stared at the night sky blankly, her eyes reflecting the brilliance of the night sky.
I just feel that the sky full of light is dazzling, almost sinking into it, even the continuous roar of the ears is unheard of.
"Does it look good?"
Su Nan looked at the girl beside her and chuckled lightly.
"nice…"
The princess murmured, looking silly for a while.
Fire trees and silver flowers, clouds and clouds all over the sky, this should be the most beautiful scenery she has ever seen in her life.
She turned her head and looked at the woman next to her.
It was still the costume of the white dress, not the usual iron armor ghost face, just quietly looking at the night sky.
The flickering brilliance reflected on her face, there seemed to be a little softness between her eyebrows, a little melancholy, and a little nostalgic.
She looked at the sky full of clouds in a dream, as if she was thinking of a long time ago.
"This is the second best gift I received today."
The princess whispered, holding the palm of the woman beside her, cold and soft, not at all like a palm stained with countless blood.
Above the city wall.
The emperor took a breath, smiled and shook his head slightly, Su Nan is indeed still the same as before, always bringing him some unexpected surprises.
For Xijun, it should be the best gift.
The ministers standing around finally returned to their senses, their expressions full of shock.
"The sun and the moon are high in the sky, and the fire tree and silver flowers are eye-catching."
"General Su really stole Skyfire. Could it be that this is the method of the fairy family..."
The flickering fireworks illuminate the city of Linyang, and snowflakes are falling one after another, as if the gods are making a gift, to celebrate with the world.
The words that had been spread throughout Linyang City were gradually remembered.
It is said that the ghost will steal the sky fire to celebrate the birthday of the princess.
How did it do it?
The image of the ghost in the hearts of the world, who is called fierce and bloody, has quietly changed, and maybe... is just a lover.
After tonight, I believe there will be many more boudoir girls in Lin'an City. I imagine that the person I love will surprise myself in this way, and there will be countless pub and teahouse storytellers and story writers who have new inspirations and created ghosts. The story of love and hatred with the princess...
This firework lasted for a long, long time, until the last firelight gradually subsided, people still indulged in the brilliance and did not want to wake up.
