Chapter 754: Sit back and wait.

"Bang!" The first fireworks bloomed over Chang'an Street at the foot of the Imperial City, marking the beginning of the joyful night of the Lantern Festival in the second year of Wude. The imperial palace supervisors and the Jinyiwei set up a throne on the Hongwu Gate, and placed all kinds of snacks, sweet soups, and fine wine. Zhu Gaoxu brought the empress and concubines here, and they first enjoyed the fireworks and lights before returning to the palace to celebrate. The palace had also been newly decorated, and the concubines and maids could guess lantern riddles, play various games, and even gamble, and they could also watch singing and dancing, shadow play and other performances.
