Iron Dynasty

Chapter 974: New Year's Eve

"Boom boom boom..."

Along with the salute, the fireworks were sent high into the sky, and the bright fireworks bloomed in the dark night, clusters and clusters, beautiful and moving.

Different from the New Year’s Eve in previous years, the people of Qingzhou City today had their New Year’s Eve dinner and went out early and gathered on Huangcheng Avenue waiting for the fireworks display.

"Wow, it's so beautiful."

The moment the fireworks bloomed, the bright light instantly illuminated the Imperial City Avenue, revealing the crowded people.

At this time, the child's immature voice overwhelmed the noisy whispers. For the children, their eyes only had fun and beautiful fireworks.

But for every adult who came to Huangcheng Avenue, what they looked forward to was the mystery announced by the court before the New Year.

It is said that tonight, they will witness the moment when a miracle happens...

In the palace, Xiao Ming, ministers, and concubines were also enjoying the beautiful fireworks in the night sky. The salute was located on the square in front of the square.

"Father, what is the mysterious thing tonight?"

Wearing a thick cotton-padded coat, Xiao Yi's face was flushed with cold, but his eyes flashed with excitement. Like everyone else, most of the palace didn't know what mysterious things were going to happen tonight.

Fei Yueer and Xiao Ming stood side by side, looking at Xiao Yi with some affection. In a blink of an eye, eleven years later, Fei Yueer changed from a sixteen-year-old girl to a twenty-six-year-old graceful lady.

Although the immaturity on his face has passed away, it has added a charm and enchantment, and every move becomes more and more like the queen of the world.

"If the emperor father told you, this will no longer be a secret, and there will be no surprises then." Xiao Ming touched Xiao Yi's head.

Before he knew it, Xiao Ming's size had reached his waist. If he was seven years old, he would have been a proper elementary school student in this day.

Because of this, Xiao Ming's education on Xiao Yi has also begun to be severe. On weekdays, he would always take time to teach Xiao Yi personally, thinking that he has reached the stage of being sensible.

More importantly, as Xiao Yi grew up day by day, the voice of the prince standing in the court became louder and louder, and he received praises for Xiao Yi almost twice in three days.

Naturally, he knew it well, it was nothing more than a flattery to Fiji to please him.

In addition, this is also related to Xiao Yi's third place in the year-end examination of Qingzhou Middle School at the age of seven.

After the domestic stabilization, Xiao Ming refined the cultural and educational system in order to popularize education, and the country built four stages: beginner, middle school, high school, and university.

The only reason to do this is because Qingzhou University has cultivated a group of outstanding talents in the past ten years of education.

From these talents, he specially selected some elites to establish Qingzhou Normal University. As the name suggests, this professional college will provide a steady stream of educational talents for the country.

At the same time, he no longer fixed the whole package in Qingzhou, but allocated some resources to other cities.

For example, Jinling, Youzhou, Jinzhou, Songjiang, Suzhou, Lin'an, Chang'an and other places have begun to establish business systems and support education in accordance with the requirements of the imperial court. Some universities have also been established in these cities to train local talents.

Xiao Yi took the middle school exam on a whim when he was investigating Qingzhou Middle School, and unexpectedly got third place.

According to the standards of the Great Yu State, Xiao Yi should not be a beginner.

So this result suddenly became a good story, and his eldest son was also held to a high position. Fiji even invited many officials to show off.

However, this incident seemed to Xiao Ming to be commonplace, and his father naturally remembered him quickly in Xiao Yi, he learned quickly, and he could not be judged one by one.

"Yes, Father, wait a while, boy." Xiao Yi stood by Xiao Ming's side honestly, with an old-fashioned look, causing Xiao Ming and Fei Yue'er to shake their heads frequently.

"The eldest son of the emperor is really sensible. I've asked him a hundred times like my stinky boy." Lu Fei's hearty voice came, and beside him stood a child who was about the same age as Xiao Yi.

This is his third son Lu Ping, and his eldest son Lu Yun is 18 years old and has already entered the Forbidden Army.

Luo Xin turned around at this time. Today, he brought his eldest son Luo Xing over. This year’s New Year’s Eve is of great significance. People with a few names in the court are invited to the palace to participate in the banquet, and they are allowed to bring relatives.

For officials and generals, fireworks and mysterious incidents are second. So many core personnel of the court are separated, and it is important to be able to communicate with each other and let their children see the world.

Therefore, both civil servants and military commanders brought their heirs, including Niu Ben, Pang Yukun and others, and the palace instantly became lively and extraordinary.

"Your family Ping'er would still ask, my family hasn't had a fart until now, and I was terrified, really hopeless." Luo Xin glared at his son.

Xiao Ming smiled. These two men were his right-hand men. They made great contributions and now both occupy a high position in the military.

It is with the support of this group of iron rods that his control of the army will be as stable as a mountain.

Xiao Ming said, "Ping'er and Xing'er don't seem to be a beginner in Qingzhou, right? After this year, after the New Year~lightnovelpub.net~ it's better to let them go to the palace with Xiao Yi to study together, so that he is the same age. There can be a playmate among people."

Lu Fei and Luo Xin were overjoyed when they heard this. Lu Fei directly slapped Lu Ping on the back of his head, and shouted, "You still don't want to thank you. It is a blessing for you to study with the eldest son of the emperor."

Luo Xin also pushed Luo Xing to the front, and the two said respectfully: "Thank you, the emperor, Longen."

"Flat body." Xiao Ming smiled.

Naturally, the movement here can't escape the eyes of other officials, and many officials showed envious looks. Lu Ping and Luo Xing have a boundless future in the future.

But they also knew that the emperor did this to consolidate the relationship with the Lu family and the Luo family. As for Niu Ben, the emperor personally referred to the marriage and married a daughter of the clan to his eldest son Niu Chong. Favored.

When everyone was thinking about each other, Su Liang just ran over panting.

When he arrived in front of Xiao Ming, Su Liang calmed his breath and said, "The emperor, now we can start."

A gleam of light flashed in Xiao Ming's eyes. In fact, the mysterious event today was the official electrification of Qingzhou City.

After the thermal power plant generates electricity, it first supplies power to the military factory, and then builds power facilities in Qingzhou City.

So Xiao Ming gave Su Liangcai a dead mission to formally supply electricity to Qingzhou City on New Year's Eve. He really had enough candles.

"Dear Aiqing, today I said that I would give you a gift to the people of the whole city. This is the mystery of today."

After that, he nodded to Su Liangcai.

Su Liangcai shouted loudly at this time: "Three salutes, start!"

Following his order, three consecutive gun salutes sounded in the Zhengda Guangming Hall in a short while, and then the street lights on both sides of the entire Huangcheng Avenue and the street lights in the palace all lit up.

The city of Qingzhou is brightly lit.
