I am engaged in construction in Datang

Three days later, June 18th.

The founding anniversary of the Tang Dynasty is celebrated by the whole world!

The sky was slightly bright.

The East and West Markets, which were usually closed, had opened their doors early, and then there were deafening sounds of drums and gongs.

‘Boom——! ’

‘Boom——! ’

"Roar!" Dozens of men with bare chests and red cloth strips tied on their heads were beating drums one by one.

Beside them, there are two lions, one red and one gold, fighting each other.

There are two giant dragons in front of the lion, one red and one gold. Their eyes are rolling around and their mouths are opening and closing, as if they are trying to chase the dragon ball in front of them.

In a shop in West Market, the owner was still sleeping soundly in the backyard room.

Suddenly I was awakened by the deafening sound of gongs and drums.

"What are you doing? What are you doing?" The shopkeeper's heart was pounding.

He suddenly remembered that two days ago, Liuweizhai sent someone to say that their shop would celebrate the 18th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China today, and hoped that everyone would be more understanding, and also gave him a bag of candy.

He didn't take it seriously at the time. After all, he had run a shop here for so many years and had never heard of any celebration of the founding of the country...

The relationship between the current emperor and his father is very delicate. Celebrating the founding of the country, isn't this a joke?

Only Liuweizhai is bold.

But he never imagined that it would be like this.

"Master! Master!"

The servant outside came over and knocked on the door: "There are dragon and lion dances outside, and gongs and drums are being played."

The shopkeeper opened the door and asked, "What's going on?"

"Liuweizhai is celebrating the founding of a country. They call it National Day!" The servant also had a strange look on his face. "Their team is circling Chang'an City!"

All the people living in Chang'an City were woken up today, and even the people living outside Chang'an City got up early and rushed over after hearing the noise.

The village had posted the team's route on a board at the city gate in advance.

There were two teams in total, entering from the Jinguang Gate and Chunming Gate respectively, and shuttling through various blocks in the city, performing lion dances and beating drums every two to three kilometers or so.

Around noon, the two teams will meet at Zhuque Street in Mingde Gate, then walk across Zhuque Street together and stop at Zhuque Gate.

The entire Chang'an city was in an uproar.

Ever since Master Li said that all goods at Liuweizhai would be cheaper on June 18th, everyone started looking forward to it, but they didn't expect things to be so different early this morning.

The children couldn't wait for the adults to get dressed, so they just put on their coats and ran out to watch the fun.

"The Great Tang Dynasty——"

"All nations come to court!"

"My power is so great that it shocks the whole world—"

"Golden Dragon leads the way!!!"

"Boom!" a man with a loud voice yelled, and the drums sounded in unison. Then a golden dragon with bared fangs and claws came out first, with a ferocious look and domineering aura.

As the team moved, the drumbeats became louder.

Until finally, the cart carrying the big drum was pulled, the men sat on the cart, and the drum beats continued.

"What, what is this doing?" The onlookers were trembling with excitement.

"How domineering!" Some men were also dancing with excitement. Listen to the slogans they were shouting: Great Tang Dynasty, all nations come to pay tribute!

Even the golden dragon has to clear the way for us! (At this time, the dragon does not represent the imperial power, but is just a link. It became exclusive during the Song Dynasty)

But isn’t that what it is?

Look at those foreigners who look like hairy monkeys, begging Your Majesty for support every day.

People in the Tang Dynasty were very arrogant at that time!

Ordinary people do not have much respect for foreign royal families. This is the confidence brought by civilization and culture.

The women in the village also followed the team. When they saw a group with more children, they threw candies wrapped in candy wrappers to that group.

There were also many yamen runners maintaining safety to avoid stampedes.

Li Yin arrived at Liuweizhai early, and the shop was decorated with lights and colorful decorations today.

She also wanted to plant two national flags at the door, but unfortunately the Tang Dynasty only had military flags at the moment. She would have to ask Li Shimin later whether he should redesign the national flag or use the military flag as the national flag?

Time passed quickly, and when it was almost noon, the two teams finally met on Suzaku Street.

A huge leather drum was pulled into the arena, and a woman in a gorgeous gauze skirt danced on the drum with lotus steps and lightly tapping her toes.

The drum beats around her began to change and the woman began to dance.

"Wow! So beautiful!"

"Who is this girl? Where did she come from?"

"It seems to be a young lady from Nuzhuang."

"How is this done? It's incredible!"

"Damn, this is the first time I've seen such a big drum..."

Li Yin hid in the crowd, watching the scene in front of her, and said excitedly: "Uncle Sanxi, you see, I said Xiaodong is suitable for singing and dancing!"

"Look how well she dances. I wonder how many young men will fall for her in the future!"

Feng Sanxi looked at Li Yin helplessly and said, "Master, please don't spoil her. What if she doesn't listen to you in the future?"

"Uncle Sanxi, Xiaodong is stupid. Don't say that in front of her. It will scare her."

Li Yin was helpless. Xiaodong was not very smart. When his previous incarnation was stupid, he still cried for candy, but Xiaodong could only stare blankly and smile foolishly.

If Xiaodong hadn't spoken and acted normally later, while his predecessor could only make noises, everyone would have thought that Xiaodong was the stupid one.

Besides, Xiaodong has been with her for ten years. If he was a bad person, he would have been cleaned up by Grandpa long ago.

Xiaochun, Xiaoxia and Xiaoqiu were bought or picked up by their mother, while Xiaodong was picked out by Li Yin herself at Yazi when she was a child. Her predecessor fell in love with her at first sight because she was good-looking and also very expensive.

As a result, the baby felt dizzy all day and could only eat.

"If she doesn't return to the village, where do you think Xiaodong will be in the future, Uncle Sanxi?"

Feng Sanxi was speechless. Being a stupid beauty in Pingkangfang?

Or you could become a concubine in some clan's mansion and then die of stupidity.

If you are lucky, you may be chosen by the prince or the emperor, but if you are stupid, you may die in the backyard or harem.

"It is still convenient to develop cultural industries with a star. Then we can create dances, songs and stage plays. Xiaodong is so good-looking and has a nice voice. Don't waste her!" Li Yin said, but she was a little stupid.

Then she pulled at her mask again, making sure Xiaodong didn't see her.

The sound of the drums gradually faded away, and Xiaodong was about to finish her dance. Li Yin hurriedly pulled Feng Sanxi and turned away.

On the other side, Li Xiaodong was standing on a big drum and caught a glimpse of two figures out of the corner of his eye.

He didn't want to dance anymore and immediately jumped off the drum to chase after him.

"Dongdong, don't move!" The woman in the manor was sharp-eyed and immediately stopped him: "If you don't finish dancing, you will ruin the celebration hosted by the manor, and the manor owner will be sad."

"Miss, I see you!" Li Xiaodong pointed in the direction of Li Yin and the others.

The woman looked over there and saw the backs of Li Yin and the other person walking away, so she lied with her eyes open: "Dongdong must have seen it wrong, that's not the owner of the manor."

Li Xiaodong was angry, and continued dancing with a pouty face.

She was a little slow in reaction, but she was not a fool. She hadn't seen a lady for a long time since she was sent to learn dancing.

The exchange between the two lasted only a moment, and the people around them didn't notice anything. They just felt that the dancing fairy's expressionless face made her look more like a fairy.

Li Yin and her friend arrived at Liuweizhai, where the venue had already been arranged.

Some people who did not go to see the dragon and lion dances came to Liuweizhai to watch the fun.

Large lottery boxes were piled up in the cleared space, guarded by yamen runners. There were 500 wax balls in one box. After the draw, the customer was asked to choose the next box and continue drawing.
