Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 1269 Summer Night in a Foreign Country

Changsun Tao said: "At that time, Rihe claimed to be Xie Yun's fiancée...Obviously, Rihe's words were half true and half false, and none of them can be believed."

Lu Mingyu's frown did not relax: "However, at that time, Hiyori asked Emperor Yuanwu for his second brother, saying that he hoped that the second brother would return to Izumo."

Changsun Tao said: "Rihe works for Hongjiang and Emperor Shitian. Emperor Shitian's ambition is in the "Genealogy of Nations". Rihe asked His Majesty for his second brother, presumably for the "Genealogy of Nations".

Sima Xuanmo touched his chin and thought for a moment, then concluded: "So, the content revealed in Rihe's words is half true and half false, and cannot be trusted."

"The real situation is that Xie Yun and Rihe are the legitimate children of the emperor and the empress. The emperor and the empress love each other so much that they are the only two children."

"But Xie Yun's mother passed away when she fled with him, and his father also passed away subsequently. There is no such thing as Concubine Ying and the second son mentioned by Hiyori, let alone the fact that Xie Yun's father is still alive."

Yao Niang nodded: "That's right. But the current emperor does have an eldest son, a second son, and Concubine Sakura. Hiyori said this probably to bring His Highness Shotoku's identity into the lap of the current emperor."

Changsun Tao explained: "Although Great Qin has a close relationship with Izumo, Izumo is not a threat. In addition, Izumo is too weird, so Great Qin does not pay close attention to Izumo's movements."

"Of course, I didn't even know much about the change of emperor, so I didn't question Hiyori's words at that time."

Lu Mingyu rubbed his eyebrows: "Now everything is clear."

Lan Lingling was a little worried: "Although we have gone through all kinds of hardships to get here, it seems that finding the location of Emperor Shitian has become a big problem. Where will the big devil be?"

Yun Fei, who had been silent all this time, said, "Can't we just go into the palace and inquire about it?"

Sima Xuanmo smiled evilly and said, "You must really want to know if my sister is in the palace. How about you go and find out?"

Yun Fei shrugged: "This suggestion is not good. I can't deal with the guards and hermits in the palace."

Changsun Tao said: "It's not difficult to enter the palace. Just wait for the palace to receive us. The general should inform the palace about our arrival in the capital."

Lu Mingyu said: "There will be news tomorrow at most."

Lan Lingling said in confusion: "We arrived in the capital quietly, but why did we let people know about our arrival in Izumo in such a big way?"

Xie Yun answered: "I came quietly because I didn't want to deal with the endless pursuit of soldiers and saved a lot of trouble; I exposed my whereabouts in a big way to use Zhaohua's identity as a cover so that we would not dare to deal with us head-on."

Sima Xuanmo put his hand on Xie Yun's shoulder: "The most important thing is to scare the snake away from the grass and scare the snake out."

Changsun Tao did not comment on Sima Xuanmo's words. He said: "Everyone has been tired from traveling recently. Please relax! Tonight is the Izumo Festival. I want to take Yan Yan to see it. Will you go?"

Lan Lingling waved her hand: "No, no, no, I want to sleep."

Nangong Suisui glanced at Xie Yun and saw that Xie Yun was not interested. He knew that he knew that all his close relatives were gone, and he must feel uncomfortable in his heart, so he stopped going and planned to stay with Xie Yun.

Sima Xuanmo didn't want to make a big candle, so he excused himself from going to bed.

Ah Liu wanted to go, but did he dare to go?
Of course, Chang Sun Tao and Lu Mingyu didn't care about Yun Fei's wishes. Seeing that the people in front were not ready to go out, they pulled Lu Mingyu and left.

Clothing shop in the city.

Lu Mingyu walked out of the private room.

At this time, she had changed into the clothes of an Izumo woman.

It was a light yellow middle coat, a green belt, and a light purple feather fabric, which made her whole body gentle and bright. The small white flower tassels hanging in her hair added to the white and rosy snow-skinned skin. Split brilliance.

As soon as he saw her coming out, Chang Sun Tao had a smile in his eyes.

He said nothing, walked over and took his beloved wife in his hand, and walked out of the clothing store together.

Lu Mingyu couldn't help but turn her head to look at the man beside her. The white shirt and light purple feather fabric made his figure even taller and taller.

He is such a good-looking person, and he is the center of attention in this crowded street.

Changsun Tao noticed Lu Mingyu peeking and couldn't help but raise the corner of his lips: "Don't forget that we are here to do business, we can't just look at me!" Lu Mingyu threw a piece of silver to the street vendor and took it from the shelf He took out two masks and stood on tiptoes to put one of the fox masks on Changsun Tao.

"We have gone so far. Emperor Shitian and Hong Jiang's men must have discovered us. It's better to cover your face."

Changsun Tao also put on the other mask for Lu Mingyu, and laughed softly: "This is only fair."

Then, Chang Sun Tao couldn't help laughing.

Listening to the voice trying to suppress his laughter, Lu Mingyu asked curiously: "What are you laughing at?"

Changsun Tao couldn't help laughing: "Didn't you pay attention to the mask when you bought it?"

Lu Mingyu took off the mask and took a look, but couldn't help being startled.

This mask has short and thick eyebrows, the ends of the eyebrows are curved downward, and the wide-open eyes are one big and one small, which looks funny and ridiculous.

Lu Mingyu pouted and put the mask back on: "I'm not ugly, how can I set off you?"

Changsun Tao held her hand and intertwined their fingers: "How can my Yan Yan be ugly?"

Lu Mingyu didn't answer, looking at the various small stalls on both sides, smelling the fragrant smell, and couldn't help but sigh: "This memorial ceremony is very similar to the temple fair in Da Qin."

Changsun Tao said: "Izumo people are very pious. It is said that they have 800 million gods. Whether it is on the street, along the path, or even in the inaccessible mountains and forests, you can see the shrines they built for the gods they believe in."

"Today's festival is held in front of the shrine of the goddess of harvest. Do you see the lights that light up all the way to the top of the mountain? The shrine is built on the top of the mountain."

Lu Mingyu asked: "Why are there not many people walking to the top of the mountain?"

Changsun Tao said: "Perhaps they prefer the excitement at the foot of the mountain! Climbing to the top of the mountain, you can worship the goddess and see the lights of thousands of houses in the city. This is also a great sight. Yan Yan, I want to go see it. ?"

Lu Mingyu asked in surprise: "How do you know?"

Changsun Tao said quietly: "It's written in my cousin's book."

Lu Mingyu was a little embarrassed: "I haven't read much of my cousin's books."

Changsun Tao explained: "I also read his miscellaneous notes in order to learn about Izumo."

Lu Mingyu smiled and said: "It seems that my cousin is still useful!"

Changsun Tao chuckled: "Indeed."

The couple laughed out loud in unison.

Here, the breeze blows.

There are lights, people, various vendors, and even more liveliness with laughter and laughter.

Everyone was enjoying the joy of the festival, as if their days were content and peaceful.

There was no fear of being ruled and dominated by that great man and the cruel emperor as I had imagined.

Lu Mingyu said: "Seeing the appearance of these people, I don't understand why Yaoniang's mother thinks that today's rulers are cruel and unkind."

Changsun Tao said: "Maybe it's because of the different angles. Because of the intervention of Emperor Shitian, all the princes and nobles lost their previous freedom and power, so they felt that Emperor Shitian was a disaster."

"Because today's emperor only obeys Shakten, they think that the emperor is also bad. Perhaps the reason why they think so is that Shakten has simply violated their interests."

Lu Mingyu said: "The king hides his wealth in the people, and the hegemon hides his wealth in the army. To judge the quality of a superior, you should judge the people under his rule. I am a little curious about the current emperor."
