Leng Yu and Xiao Zihan agreed to call each other sisters, much to Lin Yi's relief. The grand marriage banquet proceeded with lively conversation among the women and continued feasting among the officials. Meanwhile, the citizens enjoyed an extravagant outdoor celebration with abundant food. As night fell, a second fireworks display commenced, but the citizens were too engrossed in eating to notice. Lin Yi and Xiao Zihan watched the fireworks from a high pavilion.

Who exactly built it goes without saying; naturally, it was constructed by that thoroughly incompetent previous Emperor.

After all, only he would expend such enormous manpower and resources to build this pavilion.

Of course, although this pavilion is very tall, it is made entirely of wood, without a trace of concrete, which is absolutely true without exaggeration.

In this era, if Lin Yi hadn’t come, concrete wouldn’t have appeared at all.

And even with such purely wooden craftsmanship, building such a high building is a miracle and can be said to be a marvel of the world without exaggeration.

After all, this really is a test of the carpenter’s skills, with every layer crafted using mortise and tenon joints.

Moreover, all the timber used is of the finest nanmu.

Its value is self-evident, and it’s no exaggeration to say that the value of just this one building could match several years of national treasury income.

According to some old ministers, this building was reportedly constructed to satisfy that guy’s momentary pleasure.

It is said that standing here, this guy could see the entire Capital City, which made him more excited; and supposedly, he wanted to be closer to the heavens and become like an Immortal in the sky.

Unfortunately, this guy truly ended up with the fate he deserved, which is rightfully so.

At present, this wooden structure is quite astonishing to Lin Yi, as this craftsmanship would definitely be extremely difficult to find in modern times.

To be precise, even in later ages, constructing such a building is not a simple task.

Of course, due to the great height of the building and its entirely wooden structure, it is not possible to live in the uppermost areas.

This results in the upper floors being only suitable for sightseeing.

The only places suitable for living are at the bottom; however, because this is a tall, purely wooden building, there is a fear of anything unexpected happening. So, the bottom is just used for storage, and no one resides there.

Even the previous Emperor never lived here.

These are somewhat irrelevant matters, but for now, Lin Yi and his companions stand on the top of the pavilion, looking out at everything outside, really feeling a sense of towering over the world.

Simultaneously, Lin Yi subconsciously recalls a long-standing saying from the future.

So, he immediately shifts his gaze to Xiao Zihan, and then speaks to Xiao Zihan:

"Dear wife, come, look."

While saying this, after seeing Xiao Zihan look at him, he points his finger outside, and with a sweep, he continues to speak to Xiao Zihan:

"Do you see? Here, here, and here—all of this kingdom is what I’ve secured for you, haha, it’s all yours!"

It must be said, Lin Yi’s boastful manner really caused everyone around to burst into laughter.

Even Xiao Zihan was amused by Lin Yi, looking at the man in front of her somewhat helplessly.

Simultaneously, a phrase emerged in her heart, an ancient saying: "Men remain as boys until death."

Even though the man in front of her was already a famous figure of the 21st century, having created the entire Nuclear Build Group, and had become an emperor in this ancient society, he still could not change that slightly immature playful side deep inside.

This is not to say Lin Yi is immature; on the contrary, he is more mature than anyone.

When faced with significant issues, this person can definitely unleash unparalleled potential and display a unique boldness.

But in many moments, he acts childishly, as this is simply the nature of men.

And at that moment, as the group was speaking, the soldiers within the second ring had already pointed their torches at the fireworks fuses. As time approached, they unanimously ignited them.

Following that was a series of banging sounds, and then countless brilliant fireworks burst into the sky almost instantaneously.

In just an instant, the entire Capital City was enveloped within them, and their brilliance compelled everyone to look upward, even those people feasting heartily on meat couldn’t help but glance skyward.

Some individuals even forgot the meat in their hands, and many people held onto the meat but stared blankly at the splendid fireworks in the sky.

It must be said, this time it was much better compared to the morning, as everyone had been through it once already, so they were not as frightened as before.

Of course, although not afraid, they still felt a little uneasy and began to kneel, praying to the heavens, because to them, these fireworks were definitely a divine blessing.

Didn’t they see the morning light breaking through the darkness in the sky earlier?

Such a miracle could only happen if the Immortals in the sky made their presence known, right?

And what shocked them even more was that there were two manifestations today during His Majesty’s wedding, which proved that His Majesty’s power in the heavens was equally substantial, which stirred their excitement further.
