Seeing this, Sun Linghe had an idea.

"There are many toys in the imperial brother's house, do you want to take a look?"

"Really?" Nangong Ji blinked, his face full of excitement.

"Of course mother will not lie to you." Sun Linghe replied.

"Okay, Ji'er wants to go."

"Then I will take you to see the emperor tomorrow?"

"Okay, great."

Nangong Ji danced and spun around in the room.

Night falls, the prison is in heaven.

Xiao Wuji closed his eyes and rested his mind. There was no daylight here.

Based on the number of meals delivered by the jailer, he estimated the time and found that tomorrow would be the Tianqing Festival.

Finally, he was able to go out.

Although he didn't know what Li Feibai's purpose was, for some reason, he was willing to believe that the other party could save him.

Li Feibai seemed to have a magical power that infected him and made him cooperate unconsciously.

Since Nangong Ding didn't put his mind on rescuing himself, he could only put it to death and survive.

Xiao Wuji thought to himself.

I can't die. Da Jiang spent countless people's lives and energy to place me in the Weiguo court.

I must not die.

He shouted in his heart.

Everything depends on tomorrow.

A mouse in the corner crouched for a long time. When he saw a cockroach running past him, he suddenly attacked, pinned it to the ground, and gradually began to eat away at it.

The next day.

The red sun rises in the east, spreading a ray of warmth in this harsh winter.

It's just that some old trees with dead vines look a bit grim and scarlet in the morning sun.

Tianqing Festival is the most important festival of Wei State, and it is the day when Wei Taizu established Wei State in the Nangong Year.

It has been passed down to Nangong Qing for thousands of years.

Once a year, celebrate with heaven and the people.

During this festive period, the Jinglin Imperial City will be illuminated by the lights and the moon, filled with tourists.

As described by Zhang Shuo, a contemporary: "There is fresh rain and dew in front of the calyx building, and there are peaceful people in Jinglin City. The dragon holds the fire tree with thousands of lanterns in its mouth, and the chicken steps on the lotus, long live the spring."

There was a lot of traffic and the scene was grand.

In Jinglin City, the wind flute sounded, the jade pot turned light, and fish and dragons danced all night.

What's more, the streets and alleys are lined with lights and stars, as bright as day, where royals, grandsons, distinguished guests, ladies and children are all out for an outing.

From this we can see the lively scene of Tianqing Festival.

Li Feibai arrived at the Qingyi Division Hall early in the morning, but he didn't expect that Lin Tianchong was already there.

"Brother Bai, it's not too late for you."

"You were earlier."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

They all understand that the other party is eager to get rid of Nangongshan.

It took half an hour before Nangong Ding arrived.

He was wearing armor and was fully armed.

Seeing that the two of them were already waiting here, without saying anything, he pointed at the two sets of clothes of the Black Dragon Guard and said:

"Put them on, and you two will dress up as Black Dragon Guards and follow me."

"Um."

The two nodded and quickly put on the Black Dragon Guard's armor.

This armor is a bit heavy, which is not a problem for Lin Tianchong, but Li Feibai can barely walk when he puts it on and can no longer do any unnecessary movements.

"May I?"

Seeing his struggling look, Nangong Ding asked.

"No problem." Li Feibai replied calmly.

"Qi Rui, Mr. Bai's safety is entirely in your hands. Remember, no matter what happens, you must not leave Mr. Bai for even half a step, even if I die in front of your eyes."

Hearing this, Lin Tianchong and Sun Qirui were both stunned.

None of them expected that Li Feibai's position in Nangong Ding's mind would be so important?

"Don't understand?"

Seeing that Sun Qirui didn't reply, Nangong Ding raised his voice and asked again.

"I will swear to the death to protect Mr. Bai's safety."

Helpless, Sun Qirui could only agree.

"Tian Chong, you mix in the same group, follow me to Tianxin Pavilion, and do what you see in my eyes."

As the commander of the Black Dragon Guard, today, together with the Imperial City Forbidden Army, he takes on the important responsibility of protecting Nangong Qing.

"Yeah." Lin Tianchong nodded lightly.

In fact, letting him protect Li Feibai is the best choice.

But Nangong Ding didn't do that.

It was obvious that he did not fully trust Lin Tianchong.

There is no argument for the latter. Being able to get rid of Nangongshan is the best explanation.

"Set off!"

With an order, the Black Dragon Guard rushed towards Tianxin Pavilion in the west of the city.

The Imperial City Forbidden Army had already deployed defenses on both sides of the street.

According to common practice, every building is guarded by forbidden troops to prevent thieves from launching cold arrows.

The area around Tianxin Pavilion is guarded by the Black Dragon Guards, the most powerful group in combat.

Having learned the lesson from Nangong Jiang last time, a few days ago, the Black Dragon Guard had already driven a wall made of fine iron into the ground within ten feet of Tianxin Pavilion.

The wall goes thirty feet into the ground and reaches the rocks.

Even if the thief is proficient in the art of centipede, he will not be able to dig through the rocks in the ground.

A lot of manpower was expended just to ensure that strange people like Fang Qing would not pass through the tunnels and conduct sneak attacks.

After all, this time it was Emperor David, and it was different from the past.

Royal Palace.

The festival is approaching, and Nangong Qing is in a good mood.

He also had no time to pay attention to Nangongshan's condition.

Early in the morning, the ritual officer bathed him, and then went to the Ancestral Temple to burn incense and worship his ancestors.

"Unfilial descendant Nangong Qing, I would like to tell my ancestors that my David has stood in China for thousands of years and has always been in the wind and rain. However, Qing did not dare to slack off for a moment, and the monarchs and ministers worked together to finally make my David unprecedentedly grand, surpassing the other two countries. Qingcheng is frightened.

, I hope that my ancestors have spirits in the sky, bless you in their lifetime, and unify China. On this festive occasion, I send incense and wish you blessings."

After saying that, Nangong Qing knelt on the ground, held a bunch of incense in his hand, and bowed three times.

Feng Songfei took the incense in his hand and inserted it on the pure gold incense burner.

Next, there is the complicated ceremony of the Ministry of Etiquette.

In addition, there was a banquet for hundreds of officials at noon, and it was already past noon when I was busy.

Although a little tired, Nangong Qing was still in high spirits.

He is leaving the palace.

Since Li Feibai escaped, he was so frightened that he hid in the palace and did not dare to go out.

It is a rare opportunity to go out for a breath of air and receive worship from all the people, so naturally I will never tire of it.

If you want to leave the palace at ordinary times, dispatching the Black Dragon Guards and Imperial City Forbidden Army will waste the people and money.

But during the Tianqing Festival, the people had no complaints.
