Lin Zhiyue tilted her head, her eyes sparkling with curiosity, and asked with anticipation in her voice: "So where should we go first? It's such a beautiful day."
Lin Qiyang raised his head slightly, thought for a moment, then his eyes lit up and he suggested, "Why don't we go to the Forbidden City first? It carries a rich history and culture, and the palace buildings are magnificent, with red walls, yellow tiles, flying eaves and brackets. It's especially worth seeing. Maybe we can even meet a professional guide and learn more about the stories hidden in the years."
When everyone heard this, they nodded in agreement. They instantly had a clear goal and their excitement grew.
When Lin Zhiyue heard Lin Qiyang's suggestion to go to the Forbidden City, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, her thoughts drifting away like a horse that had broken free from its reins.
Now that we are living in this special era, what kind of different look will the Forbidden City have?
Curiosity and longing sparkled in her eyes, and she thought to herself, "How different will the Forbidden City of this era be from what I have seen in books, movies and TV shows, after years of sedimentation and countless historical stories?"
Lin Zhiyue felt an irrepressible excitement at the thought of being able to witness the true appearance of this ancient palace in the torrent of history, feel the heavy atmosphere that traveled through time and space, and touch the texture of history.
What makes her even more excited is that she can use the camera in Mu Siyou's hand to leave her own images in this place that carries historical memories.
These photos are not only a testimony to the good times at this moment, but will also become her unique and precious memories of this era.
Imagining the scene of taking photos under the red walls and yellow tiles of the Forbidden City in her mind, Lin Zhiyue raised the corners of her mouth and revealed a sweet smile, and did not reject everyone's suggestion.
Afterwards, they came together to the gate of the military compound to wait for the bus.
The warm sunlight shines on my body, and the breeze blows gently, ruffling my hair.
Mu Yuchang and Lin Zhiyue stood together, discussing in a low voice which palace to visit first when they arrived at the Forbidden City;
Mu Siyou fiddled with his camera, adjusting the parameters, preparing to capture the beautiful moments of the Forbidden City;
Mu Sihuai and Lin Qiyang kept an eye on the movements of the bus while chatting about the famous attractions in the Forbidden City.
After a while, the bus slowly came.
Several people got on the bus in an orderly manner and found seats to sit down.
The bus moved steadily along the city streets, and the scenery outside the window kept changing like a slide show.
Inside the car, several people were enthusiastically discussing their expectations for the Forbidden City, and laughter echoed in the small compartment.
Lin Zhiyue looked out the window curiously from time to time, her eyes full of novelty and excitement about this ancient capital;
Mu Yuchang enthusiastically shared interesting stories about the Forbidden City that she had heard before, and her dancing and gesticulations made everyone laugh.
Amid the laughter and chatter of the crowd, the bus slowly stopped and we arrived at our destination - the Forbidden City.
As soon as you get off the car, a magnificent ancient building comes into view, with towering red walls and shining yellow tiles. The solemn and dignified atmosphere hits you in the face, which makes people feel awe.
Mu Sihuai took the initiative to take on the task of buying tickets and walked quickly towards the ticket office.
At this time, the ticket line was not long, but everyone's face showed a yearning for the Forbidden City.
Mu Sihuai waited in line patiently, and when it was his turn, he said politely, "Hello, please buy five tickets."
After getting the ticket, he waved the light-colored paper in his hand and shouted to his companions, "The tickets are ready, let's go in!"
The five people walked into the Forbidden City with great anticipation.
As soon as you step into this ancient palace complex, it feels like you have traveled back hundreds of years.
As the breeze blew, the copper bells on the eaves made crisp sounds, as if telling stories of the past.
They strolled on the wide stone road, looking at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the Hall of Central Harmony, and the Hall of Preserving Harmony arranged in order before them, their hearts filled with shock.
As he walked, Mu Siyou stopped and looked at the endless stream of tourists in front of him. Many of them were listening to the professional explanations with great interest. He then suggested, "Since we have come all the way here, why don't we find a guide to take us around? This way we can have a deeper understanding of the history of the Forbidden City and the stories behind it. Otherwise, it would be a pity to just rush through it."
Mu Yuchang's eyes lit up at once, and she clapped her hands excitedly and said, "Great! When we came to the Forbidden City before, we just wandered around and took a quick look at these buildings. We didn't know many of the ways and stories behind them. This time, there will be professional explanations, and we will definitely gain a lot! I have never listened to anyone talk about the Forbidden City, and it's super interesting just thinking about it!"
As she spoke, she pulled Lin Zhiyue's hand and shook it gently, her face filled with unconcealable anticipation.
Lin Qiyang looked around and found a tourist service information point not far away, so he volunteered: "Then I'll go ask and find a reliable explanation."
After saying that, he walked quickly towards the consultation point.
There were many people in front of the information point, and Lin Qiyang waited patiently in line. When it was his turn, he politely asked the staff: "Hello, can you arrange a guide for me? There are five of us in our group, and we want to learn more about the Forbidden City."
The staff responded enthusiastically and quickly contacted an experienced tour guide for him.
After a while, a tour guide in professional attire and with a smile on his face followed Lin Qiyang over.
The tour guide first greeted everyone briefly and introduced himself, and then started this knowledge-filled trip to the Forbidden City.
Everyone followed the tour guide closely and entered the Forbidden City through the Meridian Gate.
The tour guide pointed to the magnificent Meridian Gate and explained in detail its use in ancient times, including how the emperor issued imperial edicts and held prisoner presentation ceremonies here. Everyone listened with rapt attention.
