Chapter 336
On the New Year's Eve of the Tang Dynasty, it is customary to have a palace banquet. At this time, Li Shimin will have a grand banquet for his ministers, and at the same time invite the royal family to join him.

Everyone who can be invited to participate in this palace banquet will be honored. Whether the palace banquet is delicious or not is the second. The most important thing for those who go to the banquet is to be able to get what they want from the palace banquet Honor.

As the prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Fu was naturally invited, but he didn't care about going at all, so he refused to go.

Li Shimin knew that Li Fu was impatient for socializing, so he simply asked Concubine Yang and Princess Jinyang to go out of the palace, so that they could have a reunion dinner with Li Fu's mother and son, which made Concubine Yang and Princess Jinyang overjoyed.

"His Royal Highness, Shen Lian has sent the firecrackers into the Xikua Courtyard!" At the East Palace reunion banquet, Li Fu received a report from Cao Shaoqin.

"Okay, let him prepare some and put them in the front yard, and I'll go there later!" Li Fu ordered casually, and Cao Shaoqin went immediately.

"Ah Fu, what show are you planning next?" Princess Jinyang was happier than Concubine Yang tonight.

In previous years, on New Year's Eve, she would be by Li Shimin's side, participating in court banquets and socializing, not to mention how boring it was.

This year, I didn't expect that Li Shimin would show kindness and let her accompany Concubine Yang out of the palace to have a family dinner with the prince in the East Palace. Naturally, she was not to mention how happy she was.

Princess Jinyang knew that Li Fu would definitely prepare a lot of programs for tonight, so she was full for a long time, and she was waiting for the next good show.

"Of course it's a program that you will never forget. Let's go to the front yard!" Seeing that everyone was almost finished eating, Li Fu waved his hand and led them towards the front yard.

When they got to the front yard, everyone saw a long columnar object wrapped in red paper on the ground. They couldn't help being curious and moved forward to observe it carefully, but after looking for a long time, they couldn't see what it was.

"Ah Fu, what the hell is this? Such a pile, you just show us this?" Princess Jinyang couldn't understand, and suddenly became unhappy.

"What's the hurry, stay away, be careful not to scare you later!" Li Fu smiled and told the eldest grandson behind him, Pingting, to help Concubine Yang Gui stay away, and then taught Princess Jinyang to hold a piece of lit incense sticks towards the The fuse of the firecrackers came together.

"呵..." The fuse was ignited and burned quickly. Princess Jinyang looked at the novelty and moved forward.

When Li Fu saw this, he quickly grabbed Princess Jinyang and turned around and ran away. As a result, when they turned around and took the first step to run out, firecrackers exploded directly behind them, and the firelight and smoke instantly filled the entire East Palace courtyard.

Thunderous explosions sounded one after another in the East Palace. The guards of the East Palace thought that an assassin was coming, and one or two rushed over with weapons, but when they saw the scene in front of them, they were all stunned.

Concubine Yang Gui, eldest grandson Pingting and other women were all shocked. Although they were far away, firecrackers appeared in front of everyone, and they were all timid women. Naturally, they were shocked at once. .

But after being shocked, listening to the explosion and seeing the excited faces of everyone around, Concubine Yang Guifei and other women felt that it was quite lively.

Princess Jinyang was also frightened, but she was the first to react. She was so excited that she dragged Li Fu, screaming and jumping around the firecrackers. She was very curious and excited about the exploding firecrackers.

"Wow, Ah Fu, that's what you've been saying all the time. Can you blow up firecrackers? It's so interesting! It's really like thunder and lightning. How did you make it?"

"It's fun, take a hanging back to the palace later, there should be some movement during the Chinese New Year, it's much more fun than firecrackers!" Li Fu smiled and waved to Li Mingda, looking at the firecrackers that were about to burn out, his life sank Practice quickly and continue.

Shen Lian immediately arranged more than a dozen firecrackers one by one, and then ordered people to light the fuzes at the same time. A more violent explosion sound than before was heard. The dazzling electric light and intense explosion sound resounded throughout the East Palace, even half of Chang'an City. It was blown up.

Looking at the firecrackers set off again, Concubine Yang Guifei and the other women no longer had any fear or worry on their faces, they just covered their ears with joy in their eyes, looking at the firecrackers exploding sparks in front of them, their faces glowed with joy .

In the Tang Palace, the palace banquet officially started before the East Palace family banquet ended.

There are many rules for the palace banquet, and this year's harvest is good, the tax paid by the Ministry of Households is several times higher than in previous years.

Therefore, before announcing the opening of the banquet, Li Shimin announced a series of gratifying achievements of the Tang Dynasty this year, and then looked forward to the future, which aroused the joy of the royal family, nobles and civil and military officials.

Afterwards, the banquet began, and everyone drank heavily, but they didn't finish half of the meal, and there was an earth-shattering explosion, which suddenly alarmed everyone at the banquet.

"What's going on, that direction is the East Palace, what happened to the East Palace?"

"What's so loud, is there an assassin? Who is so bold to go to the East Palace to assassinate on New Year's Eve!"

"What a fart, hurry up and have a look, it will be too late!"

While everyone was talking, Li Shimin was already in a panic, and rushed out with great strides, and the officials also rushed to the East Palace.

The distance from the Imperial Palace to the Eastern Palace is not far at all, so Li Shimin and many of his courtiers did not ride horses, they just ran, and they arrived outside the Eastern Palace in less than a cup of tea.

Li Shimin and his ministers hurried and hurried, and finally arrived at the gate of the East Palace when the first round of explosions ended.

When the guards in the East Palace saw Li Shimin and so many ministers, they were all confused.

Unexpectedly, when Li Shimin saw these guards guarding the gate, he suddenly became angry, "A group of idiots, there is such a big commotion inside, and they are still guarding the gate here, what are they pretending to be?"

As Li Shimin said, he stepped forward in person, and kicked the guards inexplicably.

But seeing the emperor's anger, the guards dared not argue, and quickly knelt down and confessed.

After kicking people, Li Shimin didn't bother to argue with the guards, and hurried into the East Palace again, but just after entering the door, there was a louder explosion than before.

The Eastern Palace was filled with gunpowder smoke, and flames were everywhere, and only faint screams and explosions could be heard everywhere.

Seeing this scene, the hundred riders who followed Li Shimin were like facing an enemy, and quickly protected Li Shimin in the center.

Seeing this, Li Shimin became even more angry. He kicked the hundred knights standing in front of him, and roared wildly, "What are you doing standing in front of me? Why are you still standing there? Why don't you hurry up and save the prince!"

Li Shimin was really anxious at this moment. He didn't know what was happening. He only knew that nothing happened to Li Fu, otherwise half of the sky in the Tang Dynasty would collapse!
