And these three days, at night, the streets are naturally full of beautiful lanterns.
From princes and nobles to traffickers and pawns, they all come out at night to enjoy lanterns and night tours.
And Li Ke also prepared a mysterious gift for everyone in Chang'an City.
This mysterious gift is the fireworks developed by his people!
It is the modern kind of fireworks that can fly into the sky after being ignited, and then explode with a bang.
Of course, it's just such a simple firework.
What kind of fonts and various shapes appear after the explosion is really too difficult, and Li Ke can't figure it out.
The fireworks he made are simple versions, which are similar to those bought by ordinary people today during the Chinese New Year.
The reason why he had this idea was because fireworks are banned in modern times, and there is no sense of the year at all.
Naturally, no one banned it in ancient times, so of course it will be lively and lively, adding some atmosphere.
It happened to be the Lantern Festival, which is a very lively festival in Datang, so I thought about having a fireworks show.
In fact, Datang also has fireworks, but they are very simple and can only be burned on the ground.
He believed that his carefully prepared fireworks show would definitely amaze the people of Tang Dynasty who saw real fireworks for the first time.
"Extraordinary! His Royal Highness King Wu will prepare the first grand fireworks show in the Tang Dynasty for the people of Chang'an City tomorrow night!"
"Everyone just needs to go to an unobstructed place at night and look up to the sky to see it."
This morning's Datang Daily published the news that Li Ke was about to hold Datang's first fireworks show.
"Fireworks show? What is this?"
"I know about fireworks, but they are all played by children. Are they beautiful?"
"That was carefully prepared by His Royal Highness King Wu, it must be different, just wait and see."
"Maybe His Royal Highness King Wu has improved the fireworks, so look forward to tomorrow night!"
"Fools are still entangled here about what a fireworks show is, but smart people have already begun to look for places with a wider view."
After everyone saw the newspaper, they immediately had a lively discussion.
They were discussing what the fireworks show was, whether it was good or not, and so on.
For a while, the topic of the fireworks show surpassed the discussion of various lanterns.
"Husband, what exactly is a fireworks show?"
Not to mention outsiders, even Zhao Nanyan, Wu Meiniang and Xie Wan'er asked Li Ke curiously at home.
They only knew that Li Ke would go out frequently these days, and when he came back, he smelled of gunpowder.
Now I know that Li Ke has been preparing for a fireworks show for the past few days, but what exactly is this fireworks show?
"You'll find out tomorrow night."
Li Ke pretended to be mysterious and smiled, and let it go.
Seeing that Li Ke didn't say anything, Zhao Nanyan and the others couldn't help but give him a blank look.
But even so, the curiosity in their hearts was aroused, and they were looking forward to the fireworks show tomorrow night.
In the anticipation of countless people in Chang'an City, the time soon came to the second night.
After admiring the lanterns for a while, everyone was looking forward to the fireworks show that Li Ke mentioned.
Li Ke, who was in the palace, felt that the time was almost up, and nodded to the person next to him.
The man immediately took out a match, ran to a corner of the palace, and lit a signal cannon.
This is similar to the cannon in modern firecrackers, the kind that explodes after being ignited.
"call out!"
"boom!"
Soon, the signal cannon whizzed, rushed into the sky at an extremely fast speed, and then exploded!
Zhao Nanyan and others were startled by the sound of firecrackers in the palace.
In a place with few houses in Chang'an City, rows of fireworks are arranged neatly.
When they saw a signal cannon fired in the direction of Wangfu, they immediately took out matches and lit the fuses of the rows of fireworks.
"Boo! Hah! Hah!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Soon, there was a sound of rushing to the sky, followed by a loud explosion.
And after the explosion, the dark sky seemed to be lit up instantly!
Dots of beautiful light spread out in the dark night sky, as beautiful as stars.
It was as if a fireball exploded, and then light spots spread towards the surroundings one by one.
Before a firework light spot dissipated, the next one followed closely behind and exploded again.
Such a beautiful view can only be described as magnificent!
In Chang'an City, all the people heard the explosion, and then looked towards the bright place in the night sky.
This look completely astonished everyone!

Chapter 253 Li Ke wins again!Li Shimin wants to drive in person!
Li Chengqian's words also contained some private goods.
At the beginning, I specifically said that the population dropped sharply due to the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty and the tyranny of Emperor Sui Yang.
What is the purpose of this sentence?
Whose grandson is Li Ke?Who is Li Ke's Emperor Sui Yang?
Is Li Chengqian not clear?
But Li Chengqian specifically mentioned this matter, and the tone of Li Chengqian's words when he said these few words was specially emphasized.
Obviously, he was attacking Li Ke with private goods, and wanted to defer the responsibility to Li Ke.
For these, Li Ke can hear it naturally, not only he can hear it, but everyone in the Tai Chi Hall can hear it.
That being the case, of course Li Ke wouldn't show Li Chengqian any more favors, and just started to get angry.
After explaining his point of view, he directly used Li Chengqian's own mother and sister as examples.
Ask him directly whether the lives and health of his mother and sister are more important, or the two generations he said are more important.
In this era that places great emphasis on filial piety, this question is a proposition.
Sure enough, after hearing Li Ke's question, Li Chengqian didn't know how to answer for a while.
There was a look of hesitation on his face, and he was very embarrassed.
If he said that the life and health of the queen mother and Changle are more important, it would obviously go against what he said just now.
If he said that the two extra generations were more important, he would be disrespectful to his mother at the top and his sister at the bottom!
He can't afford this crime, and now there are hundreds of civil and military officials in the Taiji Hall, if he is confirmed by this name, it will have a great impact on him.
"His Royal Highness King Wu, don't avoid the important ones and ignore the minor ones, and don't shift the core of the problem."
"The prince is naturally filial to his mother and takes care of his younger sister, but as a prince, he will be the king of a country in the future. Naturally, what he has to consider is the country's major affairs. Everything must be considered from a higher perspective."
"His Royal Highness King Wu is only a prince after all, maybe he thinks that the safety of one or two people is a major issue in the world."
Changsun Wuji naturally understood Li Chengqian's embarrassment, and immediately stood up to rescue Li Chengqian.
First of all, Li Chengqian was elevated, saying that he was the prince, and he wanted to stand in a higher position, with a bigger structure and a longer-term perspective.
And Li Ke is just a prince, his structure and vision are too small, he can only see some things at home, but not the world!
Many ministers in the court also understood Changsun Wuji's words, this is stepping on one another!
He praised Li Chengqian and stepped on Li Ke.
Even so, some people were indeed moved by what Li Chengqian and Changsun Wuji said.
There is nothing wrong with what Changsun Wuji said, because the empress Changsun and Princess Changle that Li Ke is far away from are Changsun Wuji's own sister and the other is Changsun Wuji's daughter-in-law.
It is considered Changsun Wuji's family, Li Chengqian is not easy to say this, but he can.
On Li Chengqian's side, his grandson Wuji answered for him, so everyone turned to Li Ke again to see how Li Ke would respond.
The ministers felt that they were waiting for others like a ruthless head shaking machine, looking at Li Ke for a while, looking at Li Chengqian for a while, and then looking back at Li Ke.
It has been swinging back and forth between the two.
"Master Changsun can ignore the safety of his own sister and daughter-in-law. This king really did not expect it. It seems that this king still overestimated the humanity of Mr. Changsun."
"Master Changsun said that this king's structure is small and his vision only stays at home, but this king wants to ask Mr. Changsun, how can he sweep the world without sweeping the house? Hasn't Mr. Changsun heard of the principle of governing the country first?"
"Besides, open your mouth and close your mouth to form a vision, do you really understand the truth?"
"It seems that there are two more generations in 14 years than having a child at the age of 100, but have you ever thought about how many people died young in the middle? How many outstanding women will I lose in the Tang Dynasty?"
"The mother's queen was a generation of virtuous queens, but she died young at the age of 35. If the mother was alive and could teach her son herself, maybe someone would not do such a stupid thing that would shame the royal family."
Li Ke didn't show any affection to Li Chengqian and Changsun Wuji, and just started to complain.
Especially at the end of the talk, it was directly mentioned that Li Chengqian raised Xinxin as a male favorite because his mother passed away without his mother's guidance, and did such stupid things that shamed the royal family.
Didn't Li Chengqian deliberately emphasize the matter of Emperor Sui Yang before?Then he will naturally not be polite, and of course this matter has to be brought up.
Anyway, there are no outsiders here, everyone knows about this matter, and it's no big deal to bring it up again.
Hearing Li Ke's words, Li Chengqian and Changsun Wuji were furious immediately.
Li Ke first said that Changsun Wuji was inhumane, disregarding the lives of his sister and daughter-in-law.
Then, in front of Li Shimin and all civil and military officials, the biggest scar in Li Chengqian's heart was uncovered again, and he even sprinkled a lot of salt on it!
This immediately made Li Chengqian very angry, and he was about to scold Li Ke immediately.
"Okay, don't mention it now."
At this time, Li Shimin suddenly opened his mouth and said something lightly.
After all, it's not a glorious thing, so it's better not to mention it a few times.
"Yes, Father!"
Hearing this, Li Ke nodded immediately.
Seeing that Li Shimin also spoke up, Li Chengqian obviously felt that his matter was too dishonorable, and his face became even uglier thinking of this.
"Having a child at the age of 14 is indeed two generations more than having a child in 100 years, but the price to be paid is that a large number of women's life expectancy is impaired and the baby is weak."
"Having a child first ensures the health of the mother and the child. With the mother's teaching, the child can grow up smoothly, and the mother can also become a social labor force and contribute to the productivity of Datang."
"And, because of full maturity, even having a few more children will be less physically damaging."
"Although the childbirth time is two years later, the number of children can be more. Overall, after 100 years, the population may not necessarily be more or less."
"And such a population is a healthy and high-quality population. The children who grew up in a complete family and the children who grew up in an incomplete family, which is better, you will naturally understand."
Li Ke then expressed his thoughts.
In the 50s and 60s, many families in rural areas gave birth to many children.
But because the age of marriage was raised at that time, and the body was fully developed at that time, even if a few more children were born, it would not be a big problem.
Calculated in this way, even if it is delayed by two years, there will be two fewer generations in 100 years, but counting the extra children, if these children have children, they can also have a few more children.
At that time, the number may be even more than the two extra generations!
Moreover, the quality is even stronger. I don't know how many times.
Parents, father and mother are indispensable, and the lack of one will have a great impact on the education and growth of children.
After listening to Li Ke's words, the ministers in the Tai Chi Hall couldn't help but nodded in agreement.
Because according to Li Ke's calculation, it seems that the population in 100 years is not necessarily smaller than the two extra generations.
