AD 1042

Chapter 237 Night of Daqing Hall 1

On December 15th, the second year of the lunar calendar, the sky is clear and cloudless.

Bianliang Palace,

The Ministry of Internal Affairs has been busy all day to decorate the Daqing Hall. Originally, it was to welcome Renzong's royal car to stay here for the night and celebrate the arrival of the winter solstice. Unexpectedly, after dusk, I didn't know that your majesty would invite all the officials to watch the film here tonight.

At the time of Xu, one update and three points.

In the East Bell Tower of Daqing Hall, the rooster sings and beats the drums.

Shi Zhicong stood in front of the hall in brocade and greeted the arrival of the officials with a smile. The deputy capital knows that Deng Baoji is maintaining order in the hall and is responsible for leading the way to the adults of the six departments of the two prefectures.

Before the beginning of the film, Prime Minister Lv Yijian led hundreds of officials to enter from Zuoye Gate. After passing through the Wende Hall, he passed the Rihua Gate to the west and came to the Daqing Hall.

Hundreds of officials stood around, straightened the brocade crown, and then Lv Yijian came forward to congratulate him.

For tonight's film, the royal street in front of Xuande Building has long been closed. It is guarded by more than ten soldiers in front of the palace. The guards with halberds are arranged on the roadside. Every five steps, there is one person with a helmet and armor, with a solemn expression.

Far and near guards, fully equipped with iron horses, surrounded by tens of thousands of people.

Even outside the Daqing Hall, there are also eighteen standing guards with big arms and round waists, staring at the officials in the courtyard.

Shi Zhicong's face was red and he made a gesture of invitation.

"Please lead all the officials to the hall. Your Majesty has been here for a long time"

Lv Yijian replied, "Thank you for knowing that I'm bothering you tonight."

"Where is it? This is a matter of miscellaneous families. Please go to the hall as soon as possible. Your Majesty may be impatient to wait."

Lv Yijian suddenly realized that he quickly stepped forward, led hundreds of officials to the jade step, and entered the palace from the left and right doors.

The gate of the Daqing Hall is vast and can accommodate tens of thousands of people. It is the main hall in the palace. Every year, the ceremony is held here. Tonight's imperial film is also a grand ceremony. Otherwise, the officials would not have dressed up to enter, and there is no need for the forbidden army to make such a big position.

Renzong's original intention was to be simple. As an exception, I didn't know that the imperial historian can't violate the system of biting the ancestors. It is already against the ancestral family law to open the forbidden door at night. The film on this night is also unheard of. Why don't you watch it in the day? Where can you see it clearly at night?

Renzong had already arranged Lv Yijian to ask the prime minister to preside over the matter. As soon as these imperial historians were finished, Lv Yijian immediately counterattacked and only said: The film must be seen clearly in the dark. What you see during the day is a blur. If you want to watch the film in the daytime, it will take a lot of effort. At least thousands of black velvet brocades are needed. Covering the doors and windows without a trace of sunlight entering the hall, His Majesty is sympathetic to the people and does not want to spend the money in the treasury for no reason, so he has this plan.

The imperial historians were not convinced and wanted to write a letter to refute it. However, Renzong had made up his mind and directly saved the secret to the secretary. The content was to send the book to the six departments of the two government and informing them to go to the Daqing Hall to watch the film on the night of December 15. The content of the film is about the war on the border of the Song Dynasty. If you don't come, there is no reason to be absent in the morning. Xi Lun's punishment.

Although Lv Yijian has never seen the film, she heard the maid in the palace mention this matter, saying that Bao Zheng, the new governor of Kaifeng Mansion, accompanied his majesty to see the film in the Longting Pavilion. However, Bao Zheng made a fuss and almost shocked the holy driver, which made your majesty not in the mood to watch it, and then closed the film at the beginning.

According to the internal servant, the characters in the picture are exactly the same as the real ones. He also saw it for the first time. If Lord Bao hadn't interrupted, he would have known the following content.

Lv Yijian knows so much about the film. Because of Lord Bao's lesson, Lv Yijian told the Privy Council and the people of the six departments when he was in the political hall. When watching the film, no matter what happens, you must not make a fuss. Even if the sky collapses, you have to sit there.

Although it sounds a little evil, Lv Yijian stared and said. Judging from the content of the film, the people of the Privy Council must pay great attention and must not make a fool of themselves. Your Majesty is fighting for their face. If they make a fool of themselves in public and are caught by the imperial history, they may cause some kind of trouble, so the Privy Council made Du Yan return. After returning to the official office, a similar tea party was held, urging the accompanying officials to take good care of themselves.

In a blink of an eye, the day of watching the movie came.

The colorful lights in the Daqing Hall are hanging high and resplendent. After Renzong sat on the imperial court, he accepted the worship of all the officials, and then ordered all the lovers to sit on the ground.

The ministers were stunned and said in their hearts where to sit and do it on the ground, which is also unreasonable.

At this time, Deng Baoji walked into the hall with more than 20 servants, brought in a bunch of brocade mats, and divided them to the ministers. Renzong explained with a smile, "Zhong Aiqing, I'm wronged tonight. The film will be played on the door of the hall, so please turn around and face the outside of the hall later."

Everyone in the hall claimed that they were. After getting the cushion, they turned around and looked out of the hall.

Lv Yijian didn't know what medicine was sold in your majesty's gourd tonight. She slowly turned around with a brocade pad in her arms. When she was ready to sit down, the door of the huge hall was closed, and the starlight and moonlight suddenly faded away. A huge curtain more than ten feet wide slowly fell down, as white as a plain, and like a silent waterfall, covering the whole hall. The door.

The ten curtain waiters carefully put up the curtain behind the scenes, walked left and right to the hall, and stood in the dark.

Next, Shi Zhicong, the inner servant of the province, led people in from the side door, carrying a mysterious thing, covered with a square brocade on it, embroidered with the pattern of dragons and phoenixes day by day, and came to the jade steps to stand and start.

"Weichen Shi Zhicong was ordered to bring the film machine. Your Majesty, please have a look!"

After saying that, he ordered people to lift the brocade in all directions, revealing the movie machine below.

"Presue it"

Renzong nodded and ordered Shi Zhicong to carry the machine to the imperial court. After putting it away, Shi Zhicong stood aside. Renzong adjusted it by himself, pointed the camera at the white curtain of the palace door, and then activated the movie machine. A bunch of colorful glow suddenly emerged from the inside, shot at the palace door like a trick, and passed through the heads of the officials. Many people turned back frequently. They thought that the divine light came from his majesty's hand. Look The son of the true destiny is the son of the true destiny, and there will always be countless rare treasures.

Lv Yijian, who learned from the appearance of the ancients, sat at the end of the situation without squinting, and next to him was Zhao Yuan Yan, the king of the town.

From time to time, the old prince looked back and said to himself what was put on your majesty's royal court. How could it be like a lantern? It seemed that he could hear something.

As a relative of the emperor in the Song Dynasty, Zhao Yuanyu was the only royal family who was invited to the palace to watch the film. He had enough face. He wanted to talk to Renzong, but Lv Yijian sat next to him. He couldn't speak easily, so he had to look around to pass the time.

After a while, everything was ready. Renzong ordered the servant in the hall to turn off the lights, and Deng Baoji quickly sent a message.

A hundred colorful lights were all extinguished in less than a whisk of incense. The hall suddenly darkened, and only the colorful picture on the door of the hall flashed like a dream, attracting everyone's attention.
