There were bursts of shouts in the crowd, and the scholars who were guessing the riddle in front of them were very good, and after a while, they passed the test, and the boss hung a string of slippery lanterns, and after a while, he went to seven or eight out of ten. But the further back they go, the more difficult it is to guess, the scholars who were still shaking their heads and were very proud, sweat beads gradually appeared on their foreheads, and the boss, who had a very ugly face just now, showed a triumphant smile at this time.

"Let's guess?"

Song Mi'er saw that everyone was surrounding a giant lantern in the shape of a luan bird, and his brows were deeply locked, thinking that he was stumped, so he had the mentality of giving it a try, turned his head and begged Shen Zhanyang with a smile.

Shen Zhan had made up his mind to be a good husband today, so he also smiled and bowed his head, and pulled Song Mier into the innermost layer of the crowd with three clicks and two clicks.

There are 10 puzzles in the lantern in the shape of a bird, but the boss says that this is a puzzle that must be answered in the order given by the lantern. There is no number, and there is no mark, and the shape of the bird is not as good as the regular hexagonal and octagonal palace lamps. Who knows that the shape of this luan bird is a problem, and if the belly is the second puzzle?

Song Mier looked carefully at the lantern, only to see that the ten puzzles are located in different positions, and there is no connection, the only thing that is the same is that there are two lines of small characters above each puzzle, one is the requirements of the lantern riddle, and one is a short sentence that seems to be a poem, that is to say, each is the position of the puzzle, there are puzzles and the other two lines of words.

Could it be that there are any strange and connections between these people?

Song Mier carefully read the two sentences on the wings, and saw that the riddle was "the white snake crossed the river, and there was a round of red sun on the head", and the requirement was to start a single riddle, and synthesize the upper and lower links to the riddle, and there was a line of small words on the puzzle, which was written "Farewell to the son".

Song Mier's heart moved, and he turned to look at the puzzle on another wing, only to see that the puzzle was "There is a fish in the East China Sea, without a head and a tail, remove the backbone, and make a riddle on the lamp", the requirement is to use the riddle to the riddle, and the other line of small characters on the top is "You call me difficult to tell".

As soon as he saw this, Song Mier's eyes lit up, and he quickly picked up the bird lamp and turned it to look at the other riddles.

The people who were discussing the anagram in full swing saw that the lamp was suddenly picked up, and they were very unhappy, and they were about to reprimand, but they found that the person who picked up the lamp was actually a glamorous and unprovoked beauty, and they were all stunned, and saw that the boss touched his beard and smiled and never spoke, so they all eased their expressions and continued to discuss with others, but their eyes quietly glanced towards Song Mier, wanting to see what the girl was doing when she picked up the lamp.

Fortunately, the people who are guessing the riddle here are all scholars or fathers with children and husbands with wives, seeing Song Mier's appearance, although his eyes show some fascination with beauty, but his eyes are upright, but there is no stupidity and malice.

Song Mier didn't pay attention to the gaze of everyone looking at her, she picked up the bird lantern and turned it around, and sure enough, she found that the small sentences on it could be read together.

"Farewell to the son,

The end of the world is not enough,

Looking forward to the sunset in spring, there are few pedestrians,

cannot help doing something

You have made it difficult for me to tell.

Good fellowship you throw me so that I have an upper tip and no lower tip,

Soap and heat are indistinguishable,

Break up without a knife,

No one is not hated,

Thousands of miles of acacia is still skimmed off. ”

The sentences that were scattered on top of the puzzles and seemed clueless were once connected, but they were a small poem.

"It's a bit interesting," Song Mier turned the lantern over to Shen Zhan, "This little poem vividly writes the grievances in the boudoir, but what does this have to do with the order of solving the puzzle?" ”

Shen Zhan, who was looking at Song Mier's toss with a smile, looked at this poem, but was a little unhappy, "Good Shangyuan Festival, what kind of resentful words to write." ”

"Where are you so exquisite," Song Mier glanced at Shen Zhan, his eyes were full of ridicule, "Brother Zhan, do you still care that you can't write about the festival?" I didn't even pay attention! ”

The implication is that Shen Zhan, you are not as good as me as a little woman, I don't shy away from it, why do you care so much.

Shen Zhan's eyes flashed, and he also smiled, and leaned into Song Mier's ear, "Also, I will never let you write such poems for your husband, so you don't have to worry about ten hundred poems like this." ”

This sentence is not light or heavy, but it just fell on Song Mier's heart, she raised her head and pretended to be arrogant, "Then the palace depends on your appearance!" In exchange, Shen Zhan chuckled.

Song Mier and Shen Zhan held the lantern and whispered to the side, but they were anxious for a group of people waiting to solve the riddle around them, and finally a woman couldn't stand it, "I said that little lady, you can't solve this riddle, if you can't solve it, hang it up and let everyone refer to it together, you hold it in your hand like this, what do we all think!" ”

The charm between Song Mier and Shen Zhan was broken in an instant, Song Mier blushed suddenly, she quickly stuck out her tongue and raised her voice, "Who said that I can't understand it, this riddle has been solved by me and my husband!" After that, he turned his head sideways and hurriedly said to Shen Zhan, "Hurry up, Brother Zhan, don't lose face, let's solve this puzzle together." ”

"Obviously, you took down the lantern and didn't return it to others, and you boasted that Haikou said that the mystery had been solved, but I didn't say anything, but I didn't care about anything."

Shen Zhan chuckled beside Song Mi'er and said with a low smile, but he didn't admit it.

"Isn't it okay to count me wrong, if we don't solve the riddle, we will be attacked by everyone later!"

"What's the benefit?"

"What benefits do you want?"

"Ah, I haven't thought about it yet······ What good can Sister Mi'er give me? ”

Song Mier closed his eyes angrily, "I promise you one condition, you can do whatever you want, just say, what do you want to do?" ”

"Ah, okay, I'll take it as Sister Mi'er's promise to me, Sister Mi'er don't let me down."

Shen Zhan was still unhurried and talked about the conditions slowly, after a battle of words, seeing that Song Mier was already in a hurry, Shen Zhan accepted the joke, "Okay, I won't tease you, let it go, I'll take a look." Mi'er, haven't you just turned the sentence above into a poem, could it be a puzzle too? ”

Shen Zhan

Song Mier deduced the order of the puzzles, and Shen Zhan quickly solved the puzzles of each door by dividing them by two.

"'The white snake crosses the river, and a round of red sun is on the head', and it can be said to 'oolong on the wall, covered with 10,000 points of Venus', 'There is a fish in the East China Sea, without a head and no tail, remove the backbone, and make a riddle on the lamp', and the right is 'Draw the time circle, write the time square, the winter time is short, and the summer time is long', boss, am I right?"

Song Mier saw that the people around him were already waiting anxiously, so he hurriedly said the order and the answer to the puzzle on the two wings.

The boss stroked his beard, "This girl is indeed right." ”

Everyone let out a "whoosh" sound, "It's so difficult to solve, it's really amazing!" "What, don't you see that these two are not ordinary people? must be full of poetry and books, how can we compare with cloth scholars? ”

Others excitedly asked, "What's the answer to the rest of the puzzles?" Quickly solve it and let me have long eyes! ”

Song Mier saw Shen Zhan looking at her with a smile, and he didn't want to solve everyone's doubts, so he said "hypocritical" in his heart, so he said loudly, "The puzzle on the beak of this luan bird is the most difficult, and the puzzle is 'cut', shoot a sentence from the Book of Songs." This sentence should be 'sad and unspeakable', this question uses the incomplete method, sad can't be said, the word lament removes the word 'mouth', and when put together, isn't it a 'cut' word? ”

"'The flowers in the country, turned to ashes, the sunset has fallen in the west, lovesick tears, the heart has been broken, the empty horse's hooves return, the autumn moon is red and the fireflies are flying', this is the puzzle on the belly of the bird, guessing is a 'Su (Su) 'The word ······"

But after a while, Song Mier solved all the puzzles on the Luanniao in one go, and the boss smiled and cut the thread on the Luanniao lantern and gave the lantern to Song Mier.

After thanking the boss and saying goodbye to everyone, Song Mier was satisfied with the lantern and walked outside with Shen Zhan.

"This lantern is beautiful, but why are the puzzles on it full of mournful words, and which boudoir woman took it out and sold it on consignment? Isn't it okay for us to solve the puzzle like this and win it for nothing? Song Mier took the lamp, enjoying the envious gazes of the pedestrians on the road, tilted his head and muttered to Shen Zhan.

"Where did so many resentful women come from," Shen Zhan touched Song Mi'er's head, "It's just the boss's way of attracting the crowd, you see that the people who want to solve this puzzle are all girls and young scholars with a sad tone like Aisha?" ”

"It's just a lantern, where is the story involved?" Song Mier nodded approvingly.

While talking, the two of them walked to the edge of the moat, and the frozen river was already covered with colorful river lamps, and in some places the ice was too thin, and the river lamps with candles were put on them, but after a while, the thin layer of ice melted, and the river lamps slowly and slowly fell into the river. When the lantern is completely submerged in the water, there will be a cry on the shore, and if there is still a layer of ice under the river, you can see that the lantern seems to be floating in the middle of the ice, which is also very beautiful.

"Why don't you write a river lantern to put it?" Shen Zhan put his arm around Song Mier's waist with one hand, and with the other, as if doing a trick, he took out a river lantern in the shape of a deer stepping on a lotus flower and handed it to Song Mier.

"It's beautiful! I am reluctant to throw such a beautiful river lantern out and put it on the glacier, and I don't want to be salvaged by any child to play or sink into the glacier! ”

"What's this, even if you write it, your brother Zhan will keep it and find a place where no child can reach it, and the ice won't melt."

"Really?" Song Mier raised his eyebrows in disbelief.

"Ahem, if it doesn't work, then let's go back to the palace and ask the Internal Affairs Office to make us ten hundred river lanterns like this, so that you won't be able to finish it for the rest of your life."

Song Mi'er snorted lightly, "I know that where in the world there will be such a place, and the river lantern that will really protect me will never go out!" ”

After all, Song Mier still silently caught the river lamp, took the pen and paper from the secret guard who had long become Mingwei, skimmed aside and wrote a line of small characters on it.

"What is written, let the husband see?"

"I won't let you see it, I won't tell you!"

Song Mier's ears turned red, and he hurriedly put the river lantern on the ice, and pushed it far away with a bamboo pole, for fear that Shen Zhan would see what he had written.

Shen Zhan didn't delve into it, and when he saw that Song Mier didn't say anything, he didn't ask, took Song Mier's hand and walked back.

Along the way, Song Mier ate the Zhang family's wontons, the Li family's soup dumplings, the spicy tender tofu of the sister-in-law, and the green bamboo shoots and pork jelly of the little brother······ ate a small belly and a bulging belly, and coaxed each shopkeeper to pack her a lot of food with a sweet mouth, so Song Mier held a lantern and a cherry chicken steak to gnaw, and the secret guards who followed behind each bitterly carried several packs of snacks that Song Mier packed back to the palace.

"I can't eat these things when I go back to the palace! How can you bring more back with you! "Song Mier has said this, do these secret guards dare to say more?

Shen Zhan looked very doting, looking at Song Mi'er without any image.

"Let's go, let's go back to the palace!"

Song Mier cheered slightly.

It's not a happy thing to go back to the palace, who wants to be trapped in the palace wall all day long, but Song Mier thought that there was still a mother who loved him in the deep palace, there were Shujieqing and Yulan and other people who loved and protected themselves, and more importantly, in this palace, there was also a person who went down side by side with him······

Song Mier turned his head to look at Shen Zhan, and found that Shen Zhan was also looking at him intently, both of them had a light in their eyes that only each other understood, the two looked at each other and smiled, and walked towards the palace gate together······
