Chapter 118: The road is narrow
Tired of walking, Yuwen Muling sat down on a big rock on the side of the road, still holding a string of rock sugar gourds in his hand. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
How can a girl eat so much? Dark Dust really wanted to ask, but he still felt that it was inappropriate, and finally held back.
From the time he came out to the present, Yuwen Muling's mouth has been chewing and eating non-stop, and he has already killed a bowl of rice balls, a braised chicken leg, a piece of flour soup, and a baked cake...... Now, she is still nibbling on the sugar gourd with relish, and there is only the last one left in the string of sugar gourds.
"Dark dust, in addition to eating Lantern Festival and putting lanterns, how do people spend the Lantern Festival?" Yuwen Muling bit down half of the hawthorn fruit, his sour little face wrinkled, and he asked with a grin.
Dark Dust handed her a bottle of water, and then sat down and said, "During the Lantern Festival, people generally dance dragons and lions, as well as guess lantern riddles. And the lanterns are completely different from the palace, most of the lanterns in the palace are to attract the emperor's attention, but the folk are to meet relatives or lovers. ”
"A loved one or a lover?" Yuwen Muling asked puzzled.
Dark Dust nodded and said, "Actually, the Lantern Festival originated from the palace. Legend has it that there was a palace maid in ancient times, after the first month of the Lantern Festival, she missed her parents at home very much, but the palace was very forbidden, how to go out to meet? ”
"Did you sneak out of the palace like Princess Ben?" Yuwen Muling smiled mischievously, and did not forget to stuff the last half of the hawthorn fruit into his mouth.
Dark Dust shook his head and said: "You can sneak out of the palace because you are a princess, and you are deeply favored by the emperor, the guards dare not stop you, but she is just a little palace maid, but there is no way, if you sneak out of the palace, it is a capital crime." At that time, a resourceful man was very sympathetic when he learned of this, and designed to fulfill her and the other palace maids. He first spread rumors that the Vulcan God would send personnel to burn Chang'an City, and there was a panic in the palace in the city. Later, he offered a plan to the emperor, and on the night of the 15th, all the people in the palace went out to avoid the disaster, and the streets and alleys of the city, and the doors of the courtyards and houses were hung with red lights, as if the city was on fire, so as to deceive the god of fire who watched and watched from the sky. Only then did Emperor Wu promise to open the palace gate, and the palace maids took the opportunity to meet their families during the Lantern Festival. ”
Yuwen Muling said thoughtfully: "Therefore, from now on, every fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the lantern must be put on the hope of family reunion." ”
Dark Dust nodded and continued: "Not only that, people eat tangyuan during the Lantern Festival, which also means missing their relatives and longing for reunion. ”
Yuwen Muling blinked his eyes and asked, "Then this is all missing relatives, you just said that your lover will also meet on this day?" ”
Dark Dust nodded and said: "With the changes of the times, the people have also agreed on customs, on this day, regardless of the royal family, ordinary people, and deep ladies, they can break the routine and follow the customs." Make lanterns to enjoy and travel and frolic. ”
When Yuwen Muling heard this, his eyes dimmed, and he said in disappointment: "Since it is a royal family or an ordinary person, why do you refuse to let us out of the palace every year for the Lantern Festival or those boring palace banquets and the same lanterns?" What about the royal nobles, they are just prison birds in the palace walls! ”
Seeing that she was in a low mood, Dark Dust felt stuffy in her chest for no reason, and comforted her: "Your father is cautious, and it is also out of your safety that you are not allowed to leave the palace. ”
"What can be missing, how can there be so many bad guys! It's just that he's thinking too much. Yuwen Muling said dissatisfied, thinking that tomorrow day will be in the complicated palace etiquette, and one palace banquet after another, he feels bored.
The two were chatting, and the group walked past the two of them, and the leader accidentally kicked over the steamed food that Dark Dust had placed beside him.
"Whoever put this thing in the way of Ben Hou! Seeing that Ben Hou's legs and feet are inconvenient now, even you dogs dare to bully Ben Hou! ”
The sound came from the owner of the foot that kicked over their things, kicked over other people's things, and instead of apologizing, they insulted others.
Coupled with that arrogant and domineering tone, you know that you are not a good person when you hear it.
It's a trivial matter, it's just a bag of food, and Dark Dust didn't want to pay attention to it, but he was annoyed by the master's words.
And Yuwen Muling had already exploded, stood up suddenly, and said angrily: "Hey, you make it clear, who do you say is a dog!" ”
Hearing the sound, the person with inconvenient legs and feet turned his head, but after seeing that the person behind him was Yuwen Muling, he immediately hid his fierce eyes, replaced him with a resigned smile, and said: "It turned out to be Her Royal Highness the Princess, the minister has eyes and does not know Mount Tai, and I ask the princess to forgive her sins." ”
Yuwen Muling looked at the white and pure face, and sneered: "Who does this princess think it is, it turns out to be the modest and polite Xuanping Hou!" ”
Yuwen Muling bites the four words of modesty and courtesy very hard, and the irony is fully displayed.
Xuan Pinghou didn't notice the dark dust sitting on the side of the road, and said with a shameless smile: "It's here, I haven't seen you for a few days, the princess has become much more beautiful again, I don't know if you miss me." ”
As he spoke, he limped closer to Yuwen Muling, and the smile on his face was extremely obscene.
"What are you going to do!" Yuwen Muling shouted loudly, retreated again and again, and now when he looks at this face, he feels extremely disgusting, and he doesn't know which tendon he made the wrong one before, and he would fall in love with this disgusting man!
Just when Xuanping Hou was getting closer and closer to Yuwen Muling, suddenly a good sword blocked in front of Xuanping Hou, and immediately, Dark Dust pulled Yuwen Muling behind him and protected her behind him.
The cold light of the sword flickered and made Xuanping Hou shrink his head in fright, especially when he saw clearly that the person opposite was the one who broke his leg at the birthday banquet that day, he was angry and afraid.
However, perhaps remembering that he was so crowded today, he gradually straightened his waist.
"It's really a narrow road, no wonder Princess Mu Ling had already begged the emperor to give her marriage, but she regretted it on the day of the birthday banquet. It turned out that he had a new love, so he kicked Ben Hou away. Not only did he break Ben Hou's leg ruthlessly, but he also caused Ben Hou to lose face in front of the prince and grandson, civil and military officials, today, let's settle the score! ”
As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen people came up and surrounded Dark Dust and Yuwen Muling.
"Sun Jishi! What do you want! How dare you take the initiative against your father? ”
Yuwen Muling is a princess in the end, and she has seen countless postures bigger than this, so she naturally won't be frightened by these people, and shouted: "The Lord of the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Dao is honest, this princess may not see this as such, Xuanping Hou can't take a trip, he has to bring ten people, this posture, but it is bigger than his father!" ”
And the dark dust quickly swept over a few people around him, and at a glance, he knew that these people were all practitioners, and it seemed that it was also a vicious battle to really start. (To be continued.) )
