must have fun

In the center of the bustling street, an open space was opened, and a ring was set up. After a burst of drums, a martial arts competition officially kicked off.

Under the rule of the empress, the folk customs have always been open, the people don't have to worry about food and clothing, they have something to return to when they are old, and they have something to support their children. The daily recreational activities are also changing with each passing day. It is not surprising that there are any novel tricks in the capital, so no one will ? Said that such a method of selecting a son-in-law is against the rules.

On the contrary, many pedestrians passing by stopped to watch the arena, wanting to see who set up the arena, or which strong man could win the beauty in the end.

When Chu Chenghuan took a seat by the window of the restaurant, several rounds had already been fought in the arena downstairs, and a brownish-yellow figure just squeezed through the crowd and came to the front of the arena to watch the excitement.

After Yu Hai poured a cup of tea for His Majesty who was disguised as a man, he pointed to the brown figure downstairs and said, "Look, Your Majesty, that is the young lady of the Lu family."

Chu Chenghuan followed his instructions and looked over, only to see a handsome young gentleman wearing a net cap crowded in front of the crowd, applauding with the exciting applause on the ring, his cheeks bulging, and holding a With a half-eaten candied haws.

"Sure enough, as you said, she will join in wherever there is excitement." After Chu Chenghuan took a sip of tea, he said with a smile, "Go back to the palace to reward you?"

Yu Haixi smiled and said, "Thank you, slave!"

Another fighter? He was thrown off the ring by the strong and strong ring guard man. This is already the fifth person who was knocked down by the ring guard man. The crowd erupted into unprecedented cheers.

The ring guard man was also complacent, showing off his big fists, arrogantly challenged everyone in the audience: "Who else?!"

The atmosphere under the ring suddenly became tense. Those who wanted to fight? saw the miserable state of the first five people when they fell off the ring.

Immediately they all became timid, afraid of their hands and feet in the audience, and no one dared to jump on the stage to try.

Seeing how cowardly everyone was, the guarding man let out a disdainful sneer, and said to the ring master, "Since no one dares to fight me, then your lady will be mine from now on.

I hope she is the most virtuous and honest, helping me with laundry and cooking, raising children, and serving my parents without any complaints. "

As soon as this remark came out, the audience was full of indignation. This tone did not mean to ask for a wife. It was clear that he was looking for a maid. Even the ring master became angry and issued another invitation to the audience: " Although it was tempting to return ten boxes of dowry, everyone was terrified of their lives. Some people who wanted to go on stage hesitated when they saw the vigorously developed muscles on the arms of the guarding man.

No matter how much the ring master encourages, no one dares to go on stage again. Seeing the passing of time, the desire of the man who guards the ring is about to come true.

Just as the audience was about to lament that a beautiful flower was about to be planted on cow dung, they saw a young gentleman in brown clothes jumping onto the ring and challenged him, "I'll fight you."

The ring guard man squinted at the little gentleman in front of him, and saw that he was like a little chicken in front of him, with his thin arms and legs, and the contempt was unconsciously revealed in his words: "Just you? "

Not only him, but even the audience booed.The kind-hearted Ah Weng persuaded the young gentleman politely: "Young master, you? Don't? Do stupid things."

Lu Qi thanked Ah Weng for his kindness, cast a contemptuous glance at the man guarding the ring, and said, "I can't see a man who insults a woman getting a wife. No matter if I win or lose today, I will fight this brother!"

At this moment in the restaurant, Chu Chenghuan asked, "Have you explained it?"

Yu Hai replied: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, General Chai won't hurt the little lady of the Lu family."

While talking, the ring downstairs had already started. Chu Chenghuan watched the little man in brown fighting with the man guarding the ring with ease, and then let go of his suspended heart.

Although the guarding man was strong, Lu Qi excelled in his agility, within three or two moves, the guarding man didn't even touch the corner of her clothes.

Instead, she received two kicks, causing the audience to follow her movements and exclaim again and again.

Dodging to the left, dodging to the right, luring the enemy to go deep, and then taking advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, she kicked up to the chest of the guarding man. The guarding man was caught off guard, and took a few steps back to stabilize herself body of.

Upstairs, Yu Hai asked Chu Chenghuan, "Is Your Majesty almost ready?"

"Wait..." Chu Chenghuan suddenly became interested, and said, "I want to fight her too." As he spoke, he was about to stand up.

Yu Hai hurriedly stopped him, but fortunately he was prepared, and under Chu Chenghuan's suspicious eyes, he waved to the servant who brought him, and a servant immediately came over with a tray.

"Huh?" Chu Chenghuan saw that there was a white veil inside.

Because it was his own self-blame, Yu Hai was extraordinarily serious, saying: "Your Majesty should not show your face outside, in order to prevent nightmarishness."

"Having said that, the hidden guard in the crowd under the stage secretly made a hand gesture to the ring guard man. The ring guard knew it and found an opportunity for the opponent to attack. Then he turned over and pretended to fall off the ring.

The young man in brown clothes won, and there was applause from the audience. The ring master immediately walked up to the stage, bowed his hands to Lu Qi and said, "Congratulations sir, congratulations sir, our lady is in the restaurant I am very happy to see Langjun's martial arts is so strong, and he is strong against all heroes, and I am willing to make a promise to Xiaolangjun with my body."

"It's a bit inappropriate..." Lu Qi suddenly became at a loss, because she just looked down on the man's belittling appearance of the woman just now, and rushed onto the stage in a moment of anger.

What's more, she was well aware of her identity, if she really married him back, her father would definitely break her leg.

Just as she was looking for an excuse, she declined the marriage, when someone came up to rescue her in time.

"Wait, I want to compare with this young gentleman!"

Everyone searched for the reputation, and saw on the second floor of the hotel next to the arena, a man in a moon-white robe jumped down from the eaves, his robes flying, and landed on the arena like a fairy descending from the earth.

He held a folding fan in his hand, and wore a white gauze strangely on his face, covering the lower half of his face.

Even the people in the capital were surprised by his attire. Many people planned to leave, but they returned to the arena after seeing this.

Lu Qi looked awkwardly at the white gauze covering his face, and asked, "Why doesn't this brother dare to show his true colors?"

Chu Chenghuan replied frankly: "I am ugly, and I don't want to be surrounded by people, so I cover my face with a veil."

Yu Hai in the restaurant almost choked to death when he heard His Majesty's explanation. If his Majesty was ugly, then there would be no beauties in this world.

Lu Qi stuck out the tip of her tongue behind her back when she heard the words, she didn't believe this set of rhetoric at all.

But the other party came at the right time, and she was just able to hand over the young lady who was recruiting relatives in the ring to him.

The challenger backed away knowingly, and the two opened up their stances. Lu Qi saw that the other party was standing on the opposite side, waving a fan. There was no movement to start a fight, so he immediately took the initiative to attack the other party.

A palm towards the opponent's waist, but the opponent retreated back, and the closed fan hit Lu Qi's wrist? With a flick of the fan, Lu Qi's whole body "?" Lu Qi.

She immediately leaned back, turned half a circle in the air, and took advantage of the opportunity of the opponent's back to her?, to kick the opponent's shoulder.

But the other party seemed to have expected that he would do it? What kind of move, the fan blocked Lu Qi's kicking foot, and moved again, Lu Qi threw it all away, and almost fell to the ground and gnawed a mouthful of mud.

Lu Qi wanted to win the match, forgot that this was still in the arena of martial arts competition and his own embarrassment just now, thinking in his heart that he must win the opponent, and attacked the opponent again.

In the arena, when you meet your opponent, the fan dance is even more beautiful than the singing. The crowd swallowing nervously, dare not even blink their eyes, for fear of missing the wonderful plot.

The people in the audience looked excited, but they didn't know how hard the people on the stage fought. After more than a dozen moves, Lu Qi found that he was far from the opponent's opponent, but he didn't want to give up easily, so he insisted on taking the opponent's round Trick after trick.

The hems of the two people's clothes overlapped each other, and they each spun half a circle in the air. Chu Chenghuan's fan was cold and cold, and it was not in vain compared with the blade. Scratched a few cuts on her robe.

Chu Chenghuan threw out the fan again to attract Lu Qi's attention, and before Lu Qi had time to turn around, the fan had already returned to her hand.

She closed her fans, and when she was about to land one on the opponent's forehead, after thinking about it, she moved the fan a little bit to avoid hitting the opponent's door directly.

When Lu Qi found out the other party's way, it was too late to dodge. The fan that was about to fall in front of her made her close her eyes reflexively, and then opened her eyes again, only to find that she hadn't been beaten. .

"Huh?" Second Monk Lu Qizhang was puzzled.

After observing carefully for a while, she realized that the other party was being merciful to her, and whenever he was going to hurt her, the other party would withdraw his hand in time.

Lu Qi didn't know why the other party did this, and suddenly had an idea in his heart, and led the other party to fight, and came to the edge of the ring, tilted his body, and pretended to fall off the ring: "Ah!"

As expected, the opponent fell for her, and stretched out his hand nervously to grab her. Lu Qi showed a sly smile, grabbed the opponent's wrist, and took advantage of the momentum to bring the opponent down the ring together.

When he landed, Lu Qi thought that he would fall heavily on the ground, and he was mentally prepared for the pain, but unexpectedly, his body hit a soft mass.

Followed by a muffled groan, "You..." Lu Qi looked at the other party's eyes exposed outside the veil in surprise, and suddenly felt that the other party's eyes seemed a little familiar: "Did I see it somewhere?" you??"

The hidden guard who was in the crowd saw His Majesty fell off the ring and was crushed under him, so he quickly squeezed out from the crowd, and helped the two stacked up with four hands and eight legs.

"Hmm..." Faced with the other party's question, Chu Chenghuan suddenly didn't know how to answer, and his eyes averted.

Just at this time, the ring master arranged by Yu Hai came over with a tray. Chu Chenghuan acted according to the situation, and clapped his hands at the ring master and Lu Qi, saying, "I admit defeat..."

As soon as she admits defeat, the winner is Lu Qi.

Lu Qi was dazzled by the joy of victory, and in the blink of an eye, he put aside doubts about Chu Chenghuan's identity. He wished he could shake his head and tail, and said happily, "Hmph, I still won."

The ring master held the tray in front of Lu Qi, and said: "This is our young lady's gold hairpin. Since this gentleman has won, this gold hairpin will be used as a token of love and given to you, young gentleman."

Hmm... Lu Qi almost forgot about recruiting relatives. After all, she couldn't marry a woman and go home. Seeing that Chu Chenghuan hadn't left yet, she had an idea, called to Chu Chenghuan, picked up the golden hairpin, and came to Chu Chenghuan ?, smiled and said to her: "I don't know each other, I'll give you a gift?"

"What gift?" Chu Chenghuan looked at her suspiciously.

As soon as Lu Qi raised his hand, he inserted the gold hairpin horizontally on Chu Chenghuan's hair, and said, "This girl is yours."

As soon as he finished speaking, he mixed himself into the crowd and fled, leaving only Chu Chenghuan and the ringleader in a daze.

The crowd in front of the arena dispersed, and the ring master walked to Chu Chenghuan's side and called out softly, "Your Majesty..."

Chu Chenghuan came back to his senses, took off the golden hairpin, put it in his hand, watched it in his heart, smiled and shook his head and said, "It's okay, you can escape from the monk, but you can't escape from the temple."

In the second year of Pingyan, because the Lu family had a daughter named Qi, who was talented, virtuous, gentle and filial, and could be regarded as a model of women in the world, the empress specially ordered her to be registered as the queen.

There are many criticisms among the people, and this matter is discussed in the streets and alleys wherever there are idlers.

"You? Have you heard? Your Majesty appointed a woman as queen."

"No? Is it false? Your Majesty is also a woman, how can a woman marry a woman, not to mention that your Majesty will continue to have an imperial heir in the future?"

"The imperial edict has been announced to the world, you? If you don't believe me, you can go to the bulletin board of the city gate to see it. This matter has been confirmed." Isn't this a reversal of yin and yang, and disregard of human opinion?Is Your Majesty going to become a faint king? "

"Bah bah bah, your majesty is so wise? How could he become a foolish king?"

"But this matter..."

"Don't you see that there are so many stupid male emperors in ancient times, who like masculinity and love to break their sleeves, but they don't have so much gossip, how come our majesty can't do it?

I personally think that the world is peaceful, the country is prosperous and the people are safe, all thanks to the strength of His Majesty.

Your Majesty is also a human being, with his own personal love and desires.If she really likes a woman, as long as she doesn't do anything harmful to nature, why is it impossible? "

As soon as this remark came out, echoes continued, and there were more people who supported it, and it became an unbreakable truth.

So no one disagrees with the birth of a queen of the same gender as His Majesty.

Finally, when the day of the emperor's wedding came, Lu Qi, dressed in a phoenix coronet and a summer cloak, sat alone in the bridal chamber and waited for His Majesty.

As soon as she heard a noise at the door, she immediately straightened her waist, and her heart beat faster than once.

She never thought that she would marry someone she had only met once, and she was also a woman like her. How could the other party? Judging from her horoscope, she must be suitable to be the queen?

While thinking wildly, she heard footsteps gradually approaching the bed, and finally stopped in front of her.

The hijab that blocked the line of sight was picked up by the other party with a scale. Lu Qi raised her head with red ears, but saw a pair of familiar eyes.

She forgot the respect and etiquette for a while, and blurted out in surprise: "Why are you?"

Chu Chenghuan's exquisite appearance was immersed in the soft candlelight, which added a bit of beauty like autumn water to her.

She looked at Lu Qi calmly, and said with a smile: "The queen is surprised that it's me?"

"Hmm..." Lu Qi thought of something, and suddenly felt embarrassed. He clutched the corner of his clothes, and said falteringly, "You? Didn't you go to the martial arts competition that day to recruit relatives? How could it be? Become Your Majesty, and come to marry me..."

Chu Chenghuan sat next to her, and said meaningfully: "The queen doesn't know, but the arena you fought that day was exactly what I wanted to recruit."

Lu Qi's face was full of question marks: "??" Little friend, how can you have so many doubts.

After thinking for a long time, she realized that she had been cheated. She was so angry that she blushed and said, "It's the first time I've seen someone compete in martial arts to recruit relatives, and I'm shamelessly coming to the arena."

Chu Chenghuan ignored her sarcasm, and said disapprovingly: "But in the end, the queen won. Lu Qi couldn't argue with her, and secretly spat at her a few times, and turned away awkwardly, not wanting to talk to her.

Chu Chenghuan approached her, poked her shoulder and asked, "Are you angry?"

Lu Qi snorted coldly, noncommittal.

Chu Chenghuan let go of the dignity of the emperor, and said with a calm face: "I apologize to you, is that okay?"

"No?" Lu Qi bared his teeth.

"Then you? Why are you willing to forgive me?" Chu Chenghuan tried to ask.

"I want you? Guaranteed, from now on, no one else is allowed in the harem except me. I don't want to share a husband...a wife...well, anyway, I just don't allow you to have a new love." Lu Qi said coyly.

It turned out that it was just such a small request, Chu Chenghuan said straightforwardly: "I promise you?"

Originally, she didn't plan to place three thousand in the harem.

Only then did Lu Qi turn around, raised her palms up, and said, "Your words are unfounded, I want you? Give me a high-five as an oath."

A smile was always on the corner of Chu Chenghuan's mouth. She rolled up her sleeves and gave Lu Qi a high-five, two high-fives, three high-fives, and they made an oath.

Red candles are flickering, and the night is long...

"Is the light on His Majesty's side off?" The Empress Dowager Xie asked when she heard the sound of the door closing, raised her head from the Buddhist scriptures copied in her hand.

Lu Shanggong, who heard her question, walked into the main hall and replied: "It's off..."

Empress Dowager Xie nodded reassuringly, and said: "That's good. I'm still worried that Qi'er won't marry His Majesty, and the two of you will have a dispute in the bridal chamber."

Before Empress Dowager Xie's case, Lu Shanggong sat down on his knees, and said, "Qi'er is easy to talk to, but I don't know how you, Queen Mother, allow Your Majesty to do such a bold thing?"

"What His Majesty wants to do, is it possible that she won't do it if I don't allow it?" Empress Dowager Xie laughed.

Having said that, but...

Lu Shanggong asked anxiously: "Then what about the successor?"

"Who in this world is sitting or not sitting? What's more, doesn't Your Majesty have a few younger brothers and sisters?"

Empress Dowager Xie thought about it and said, "Let's not worry so much about the children."

"Cheng Huan'er has a companion, so I feel relieved." She put away the Buddhist scriptures in front of her, patted Lu Shanggong's hand, and said softly, "I plan to go to Luoyang to retire to the other palace, I don't know. You? Would you like to go with me?"

No matter when and where, or how long she has been with her, the Empress Dowager Xie always exudes a kind of gentle temperament.

This is an invisible force, enough to make anyone who is on guard against her throw away their helmets. Lu Shanggong, who has loved each other since she was a young girl, is of course the same, and agreed without thinking: "Your servant is willing. Because With the example of the emperor and empress, same-sex associations became popular among the people of Qi Dynasty.

No matter male or female, male or female, as long as you love me, you can get married and grow old together. - "The Chronicle of Qi Dynasty"

The author has something to say: Okay, it's really over here.

Although I may change my mind later.But at this moment, I sincerely say: "I will always love Xuancheng, ying ying ying."
