Chapter 52 Fireworks (2)

Li Chengqian got up and reached out to pat the clothes on his body, dusted off his body, and thought to himself: I don't know how the fireworks will work, I'll try it tonight to see the effect.

"Wang Quan!" Li Chengqian shouted outside the hall.

Hearing the movement, Wang Quan trotted in and said, "What's your order, Mr. Lang?"

Li Chengqian pointed at the thirty or so ready-made fireworks and said, "Put them all away for me and send them to Cheng'en Hall tonight. Remember! These fireworks should not be near the fire source, not even a spark."

"Promise!" Wang Quan carefully recorded Li Chengqian's words, paying special attention to these fireworks, and called the servants to repeatedly tell them what they should pay attention to.

"Also, call the Crown Princess, Xiao Liangdi and the two emperor's grandchildren. Tonight, the widow will hold a family banquet in Cheng'en Palace." Li Chengqian instructed Wang Quan.

"Your maidservant has written it all down! Now send someone to inform the Crown Princess, Liang Di, and the two princes." Wang Quan took the order and left.

At nightfall, Li Xiang and Li Jue, led by their respective wet nurses, were the first to appear in Cheng'en Hall to wait for their father, Prince Li Chengqian.

As soon as they arrived on the front foot, the newly promoted Liangdi Xiao Shi arrived on the back foot!
Li Xiang and Li Jue got up to salute Xiao Liangdi, Xiao Liangdi saw that the Crown Princess Su Shi and the Crown Prince hadn't come yet, and she was bored by herself, so she teased the two children.

Not long after, the graceful and luxurious Crown Princess Su, dressed in jewels and jewels, walked gracefully, followed by a maid, and appeared in the Cheng'en Hall.

"Meet the concubine mother!" Li Jue and Li Xiang saluted Su Shi.

"Sister Xiao send hello to my sister!" Xiao Liangdi also saluted the Crown Princess Su.

"It's all free!" The Crown Princess raised her hand and said, "Jue'er, come to Mother Concubine!"

Li Jue happily ran to the princess, and called out "Mother!" sweetly, which made the princess smile.

Compared with the incompetent father of Prince Li Chengqian, Li Jue was closer to his biological mother. The half-child Li Xiang looked enviously at Li Jue's mother and son playing.

Xiao Liangdi fiddled with the bracelet in her hand boredly, waiting for today's protagonist, Prince Li Chengqian.

This is the scene in Cheng'en Hall now.

"His Royal Highness is here!" Just as everyone was getting a little annoyed with waiting, Wang Quan's high-pitched voice sounded just right from outside the hall.

With Wang Quan's support, Li Chengqian came in limping, and sat down at the head seat. Crown Princess Su led Xiao Liangdi and two children to salute Li Chengqian.

Let's start with Li Chengqian's voice!Entering today's theme - family banquet.

Wang Quan called the maid to serve the dishes, and the maids filed in, put the divided food on each table, and then left!
During dinner, Li Chengqian also asked about the academic situation of the two children. The two children were considered well-behaved, and their answers were well-founded!Li Chengqian was very satisfied.

After dinner, the maid stepped forward to remove all the dishes and served everyone dessert.

"Today I'm preparing a gift for you, but I don't know if you like it or not?" After dinner, Li Chengqian went straight to the topic.

"Your Highness's reward, it's too late for me to be happy, how can I not like it." The Crown Princess Su said.

"Your Highness! What are you going to give us? Gold, silver and jewellery, gold hairpins and jade hairpins?" Seeing how mysterious Li Chengqian was doing it, Xiao Liangdi asked with big watery eyes.

Generally speaking, the things that the crown prince rewards are jewelry, silk and satin and other utensils.

It can be seen that Li Chengqian's posture does not seem to be rewarding these objects, so Xiao Liangdi is inevitably a little curious.

Not only Xiao Liangdi was curious, but also the Crown Princess Su and the two children were very curious, but the Crown Princess had to pay attention to her own identity, so it was not good to ask directly.

As for the two children, let alone, Xiao Liangdi has not been in the palace for a long time, and she still doesn't understand the rules in the palace.

"As for what it is! You can follow me outside the hall and have a look." After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he got up and walked towards the outside of Cheng'en Hall, Wang Quan followed closely beside him.

Crown Princess Su led her son Li Jue and followed behind Li Chengqian, while Xiao Liangdi and Li Xiang walked at the back side by side.

"Your Highness! Where's the gift you want to give us?" Everyone came outside the hall, Xiao Liangdi looked around and didn't find the gift Li Chengqian mentioned, and asked.

"Be safe and don't be impatient! Wang Quan, bring it up!" Li Chengqian said to Wang Quan who was beside him.

"No!" Wang Quan took the order, turned around and left. After a while, Wang Quan left and returned, followed by two servants.

As the servant appeared, their eyes focused on the bag in the servant's hand, which contained some sealed bamboo tubes, and there was a thread at the seal of the bamboo tubes.

"Your Highness! Is this the gift you were talking about?" Xiao Liangdi looked at it for a long time and didn't know what the bamboo tube was for.

"Yes! This is the gift I prepared for you!" Li Chengqian was gearing up excitedly. This was the first time he came to Datang to watch fireworks, and he made it himself, but he didn't know how the effect would be.

To be honest, he is both excited and nervous now.

After hearing that this was the gift the Crown Prince had prepared for them, the faces of the Crown Princess Su and Xiao Liangdi twitched involuntarily, feeling very helpless for the Crown Prince's unconventional approach.

It's better to send some jewelry and the like than the bamboo tube in front of them. What do they want this bamboo tube for?It can't be spent as money.

"You guys are watching, the time to witness the miracle has come!" After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he turned to Wang Quan and said, "Let's start!"

"No!" Wang Quan took the order, waved to the two servants, and the two servants retreated to a certain distance, took out the fireworks from the bag, put them away, took out the prepared fire folder, opened the lid, and gently As soon as it blows, the fire pocket will burn.

After the servant ignited the fuse, he immediately picked up the bag on the ground and ran to the side, so as not to hurt innocent people.

The Crown Princess Su Shi, Xiao Liangdi and the others were at a loss as to what they were doing.

"Bang" followed by a muffled sound, which frightened everyone to their wits. Before everyone could see what was going on, they heard a whoosh, and the bamboo tube flew into the sky.

Before everyone could react, they heard a "bang", a strong light flashed in the sky, and a beautiful colorful spark bloomed in the air.

"Wow! It's so beautiful!" Xiao Liangdi opened her mouth wide in surprise, even though she covered her mouth with her white hands, she still couldn't conceal the light of surprise in her eyes.

The movement of Li Chengqian's fireworks set off alarmed the people in Chang'an City. Even His Majesty Li Er, who was reviewing the memorial in the Liangyi Hall, put down his work and walked out, looking at the colorful fireworks blooming in the sky.

"What is this? It's so beautiful? But it was made by the East Palace?" Li Er asked Wang Yuan, the internal servant beside him.

"This... this old slave doesn't know what it is, but it is indeed the movement in the south of the East Palace!" Wang Yuandao, it was the first time he saw such a thing.
