Chapter 207 Aunt Wu said

The people of the Tang Dynasty were strong.

Although the Yunjin Empire and the Tang army were fighting fiercely at the border, it did not affect the people in Chang'an City. In their opinion, Zhao Tieleng, who was just a rebel general of the Tang Dynasty, could not conquer Chang'an City even if the whole country was mobilized. What's more, the good news from Hu Yunlie had already spread throughout Chang'an City as early as the city gate was opened. On an annual grand festival like today, as long as the troops were not at the city, the subjects of the entire Chang'an City would gather in the main roads of Chang'an City.

Ximen Wuhen, who was following Zi Chen, was like a little magpies, chattering endlessly about what he saw and heard in Chang'an City. Ximen Wuhen, who was not as tall as Zi Chen, would immediately stand on tiptoe when he saw the crowd gathering. When she saw that there was a juggling group in front of her, she was excited and pulled Zi Chen's arm, shaking it while shouting coquettishly: "Brother, princess sister-in-law, that's what I mentioned. I heard that this juggling group came from a very far place. That place would have been so long from Chang'an, so this juggling group had been to Chang'an ten years ago."

When I heard that this juggling group had to go for ten years before I could come to Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty. Li Qier, who was following Zi Chen, also showed a curious look on her face and said, "Wuhen, how did you know this? Did you see it ten years ago?"

Ten years ago, Ximen Wuhen and Li Qier were just little girls.

Moreover, Li Qier is a princess, and it is not easy to travel to the palace on weekdays. How could she have leisure to run to the streets of Chang'an City to watch the juggling.

Hearing Li Qier's inquiry, Ximen Wuhen's little face turned red with a rare blush, and he said timidly: "I also heard Aunt Wu say that she would take her son to put on river lanterns every year. She also saw this juggling group once ten years ago. Moreover, she also asked the people of this juggling group privately, which was told by the juggling group that they came from a very far place. From them to our Chang'an, it would take ten years to go..." After Ximen Wuhen explained it hard, he quickly grabbed Li Qier's hand and shouted: "Sister Princess, let's squeeze in and see it quickly! If you can't see this time, you will have to wait ten years before you can see it."

Li Qier had no choice but to the little girl Ximen Wuhen's character. She gently grabbed Zi Chen's hand and said softly: "Let's go in and take a look!"

"kindness!"

Zi Chen nodded.

Without his orders, the two dark demon tiger knights had already stepped forward and squeezed out a way for Zi Chen and the other two.

Although some people in Chang'an City were not satisfied with the actions of the two dark demon tiger knights, they obediently closed their mouths as soon as they saw their physiques. Ximen Wuhen, who had successfully squeezed in, saw the stimulating jugglings such as naked upper bodies, playing with long swords and shattering big stones on their chests, and their eyes lit up. Li Qier, who was standing next to Zi Chen, obviously was not very interested in these jugglings in the juggling group. Instead, she looked at Zi Chen next to her with interest and asked, "Is that girl Wuhen really saying something? Are these juggling groups really coming from a very far place?

Moreover, it takes so ten years for that place to travel to Chang'an City? Even those remote countries in the south can not take so long for us to come to Chang'an City!"

Hearing Li Qier's inquiry, Zi Chen pinched her nose with a giggle and said, "Husband, I'm not a prophet, how could he know where they came from? However, they definitely don't need to walk ten years from Chang'an. Look, most of the adults in the juggling group are young and middle-aged people, with only one old man. Obviously, this juggling group is not the juggling group that Aunt Wu saw ten years ago. Otherwise, when she saw it, most of the people in this juggling group were still seven or eight years old, so how could they perform juggling?"

"Then why did they need to come to our Chang'an once every ten years?" Li Qier continued to ask curiously.

Seeing Li Qier like a curious baby, she specially picked some tricky and weird questions to ask. Zi Chen was also amused and shaved her cute little nose and said, "It's probably their tradition, just like our Tang Dynasty. We hold the Lantern Festival once a year, and they hold the long trip once a year, so we can only watch their juggling once a decade..." Zi Chen finished explaining, and heard Ximen Wuhen standing in front send out a message.

The voice exclaimed. Zi Chen and Li Qier turned their heads at the same time and saw the people in the juggling group pulling a huge monster with fangs from a huge cage. The monster's vicious face scared many people around them to take several steps, especially when they saw huge monsters like a hill walking out of the cage, biting one of the members of the juggling group, swallowing the members of the juggling group into their stomachs in a few bites.

The spectators around them all made waves of panic screams.

Even Ximen Wuhen's face was scared to a little pale, and his eyes were filled with unbearable expressions: "Does this monster have to eat and perform?"

In response to this, Zi Chen shook his head without comment. He naturally knew that it was impossible for the juggling group to eat one person at a time. Otherwise, no matter how many people in the juggling group were, they would probably not be able to withstand the monster's eating. In fact, this juggling was more like a magic trick. The people around him were still in a state of terror. He saw the mountain-shaped monster suddenly opened his bloody mouth and saw the fangs full of fangs. Many people were so scared that they took several steps back, as if afraid that the monster would suddenly go crazy, rush into the crowd, and swallow them up in one bite. The rhythm of the juggling group was well controlled. Before the people around him started to panic, they saw the member of the juggling group who was eaten into the stomach by the monster crawled out along the monster's mouth.

When the juggling member who was swallowed by the monster at the beginning crawled out of the monster's fanged mouth, the people around him were stunned at first, and then there was a burst of intense applause and cheers.

The girl Ximen Wuhen even slapped her hands red.

After the thrilling monster ate people, the next performance became much gentler. The reminder was like a monster on a hill, all kinds of funny and well-behaved, which made the audience laugh. When the performance of the juggling troupe was almost over, Ximen Wuhen followed Zi Chen and the others out of the crowd and continued to wander on the bustling streets. Ximen Wuhen, whose little head was full of monsters eating people, was still worried about why the monster did not swallow people. Especially when seeing the monster's fangs, no one would regard it as a vegetarian. Ximen Wuhen, who was walking on Zi Chen's right, looked at Zi Chen with a suspicious look on his face and said, "Brother, why didn't that monster eat that person?"

“Because it is specially trained.”

“Does it eat meat?”

"eat."

"How do you train it not to eat meat?"

"have no idea……"

A group of people walked around the bustling streets of Chang'an City. The little girl Ximen Wuhen was already holding all kinds of small things in her hands, including lanterns, windmills, and candied haws. Li Qier, who was nestled beside Zi Chen, was obviously much quieter. Ximen Wuhen, who also held two river lanterns in her hand, raised her head and looked at the sky, and said to Li Qier: "Princess, sister-in-law, let's go and put the river lanterns! I heard that as long as you write your wish on the river lantern and put it in the river, your wish will be realized in the end. Let's write a wish too!"

Li Qier, who had never known these folk customs, was slightly stunned after hearing Ximen Wuhen's words, and then nodded.

The two walked to an old teacher's stall, picked up the brush and started writing wishes on the river lantern. Li Qier was better, generous, and did not avoid anyone writing. The little girl Ximen Wuhen secretly looked at Li Qier and Zi Chen, hid at the other end of the stall and started writing. After writing, she did not wait for Li Qier to put the river lantern into the river on her own without waiting for Li Qier to put the river lantern into the river. Now the Wei River is already flowing with thousands of river lanterns, and a candle is lit in each river lantern, which is a unique view. It was not until Li Qier put her river lantern into the Wei River that Zi Chen came to her and smiled and said, "Okay, let's go back!"

"kindness!"

Li Qier nodded and gently pulled Zi Chen's arm.

Seeing Li Qier and Zi Chen walking back, Ximen Wuhen, who had already put the river lantern into the Wei River, jumped back and looked at Li Qier with a smile and said, "Princess, sister-in-law, what wish did you make?"

"I hope our Tang Dynasty will be rich and strong, and the barbarians from all over the world will no longer be war-torn, and everyone can live in peace and contentment." After Li Qier said that, she looked at Zi Chen beside her, pursed her lips, and smiled: "I hope our Tang Dynasty's magical arrow man can be safe and stable, and don't experience some dangers again."

After hearing Li Qier's words, Zi Chen smiled awkwardly. He naturally knew that Li Qier had not forgotten the fact that he had gone to the Yunjin Empire alone. When Ximen Wuhen heard that Li Qier had made so many wishes, he curled his lips and muttered in a low voice: "The gods are very busy every day. After making so many wishes, I guess the gods couldn't care about it." Of course, Ximen Wuhen's muttering was very small. Not to mention Li Qier, even Zi Chen didn't hear it clearly. Li Qier was also very curious about what wishes the girl Ximen Wuhen wrote, and smiled and said: "Wuhen, what wish did you make?"

"I won't tell you." Ximen Wuhen pouted and said, "Aunt Wu said that if you tell others your wish, it won't work."

...

"Enclose him and beat him to death..."
