I only heard the stall owner say: "Everyone is in a good mood today, why don't you come up with something that is both common and uncommon?"

Everyone said, "Good!"

So, the stall owner took out a box and said, "I have a guest who came from west to east, singing and clapping. Don't enter through the door, but climb over the wall. danced into the courtyard, and the young women smoked more. Fight to the death with personality, and the master does not mourn. Guess what it is? ”

Wang Ziqian didn't have time to answer. I heard a young man wearing a cloak and a veil say softly: "What's so difficult about this, and listen to me: a thing with sharp teeth and sharp mouth, a slender body and a slender appearance. Concealed during the day and out in the evening, when you come out, you have to eat minced meat. It's the season, I don't know if I guess yes or no? ”

As soon as this voice came out, although it was not the accent of Yunmengguo, the people who heard it all felt like a weak willow supporting the wind, not charming but delicate, and like a person drinking alcohol, not crisp and drunk. Wang Ziqian looked over carefully, only to see that the other party was beautiful, wearing a deep coat made of high-quality Shu brocade, a square pattern, embroidered with a plain and elegant lotus flower shape, the pattern is symmetrical, the square is continuous, the color is bright, the clothes are connected up and down, the hem is not slit, but the placket is lengthened, and the back is hugged, that is, the so-called "continuation of the hook edge", and a pair of small and delicate white jade belts are tied around the waist.

At this time, the stall owner uncovered the mystery, and the young woman guessed correctly, saying that it is common because it is the mosquito that every household is afraid of not being able to get rid of in this season, and that it is not common, but it is completely different from the pen, ink, paper, inkstone and other items commonly used in the past. It seems that today's stall owners have thought deeply in advance to make the festive atmosphere more enthusiastic, and have made it more difficult to shoot over. When the stall owner saw that someone had answered correctly, he took out a small box of fine flower notes and presented it to the woman. This flower note comes from Taibai country, according to legend, it is a young and beautiful female poet, she dyed the paper into crimson, pink, apricot red, bright yellow, dark blue, light blue, dark green, light green, patina, remnant clouds and other ten colors, and use a bamboo cage to simmer slowly so that each piece of paper is smoked with floral fragrance, suitable for writing exquisite short poems, which is quite popular in Yunmeng country.

"Good!" There was a cheer all around, just looking at the appearance of the Lingbo fairy outstanding, and then listening to the sound like the hollow valley yellow warbler melodious and tactful, and now seeing this woman's quick thinking, everyone couldn't help but admire.

The stall owner took out another box and continued: "Now please guess the second object, it is said that this object is really magical, and people who live in the temple do not know it. One breath often turns into a round solid, and it is difficult to distinguish between male and female with wings. ”

"Swallow eggs." This time the prince replied with the woman. There was another round of applause and applause. The two were equal, and the stall owner continued to thank him, and both men and women were rewarded with a small plate of Liangzhou grapes from the Western Regions. The prince handed it to Fei Xiang to hold, and the woman also turned around and gave it to her maid.

Then there were two or three rounds, and the two were still indistinguishable. So, the stall owner was embarrassed: "Xiaomin is entrusted by the royal family, every holiday to set up a stall here, and the people have fun, more than ten years, have not encountered such a situation, I see the two talented women, it is better not to use the real thing, out of thin air to study each other's skills?"

"Good!" The woman and the prince were addicted to the fight, and agreed in unison.

"I'll go first." The woman said slyly, "One son is pointy, two sons are round, the third son holds an umbrella, the fourth son plays a fan, the fifth son is red and gorgeous, the sixth son is bright and red, the seventh son has body sores, the eighth son has body hair, the ninth son is double against two, and the tenth son is light." Childe is invited! With that, the woman curtsied to the prince.

Everyone gasped, not to mention guessing, it was difficult to remember so many questions at once.

"What's so difficult about this, girl, please listen," the prince replied with a bow, cleared his throat and said, "They are peppers, pumpkins, mushrooms, plantains, amaranth, carrots, bitter gourds, winter melons, beans, and white melons, all of which are commonly used in the kitchen." The prince finished speaking in one breath, and then looked at the girl with a smug face.

At this time, it coincided with the dry boat, rope, pill sword, acrobatics, horn, hundred opera and other hundreds of opera troupes from all over the world to enter Beijing to perform skills, drum music, many people followed the hundred opera troupe to move, the flow of people suddenly became huge, the originally crowded shooting booths, suddenly scattered by the flow of people, everyone was wrapped in involuntary progress, the girl did not have time to explain, and she and her entourage were also swept away by the flow of people.

Wang Ziqian and Fei Xiang opened everyone and wanted to catch up, but unfortunately the crowd was surging, and the distance between them and the girl was farther away, only to see that the girl smiled back at Wang Ziqian before disappearing, and it happened that a gust of wind blew by, lifting the woman's veil, revealing her smiling face like a crescent moon: I saw that her eyebrows were like distant mountains, without description, her eyes were like cold pools, crystal clear, her nose was like green onions, beautiful and straight, her mouth was like a cherry, her lips and teeth were bright, her skin was like clotted fat, and her jade bones and ice muscles. The prince looked at it in a daze, it was really this woman who should only be in heaven, and how many times could she come back in the world, until the hundred opera troupe and all the crowds watching the excitement had dispersed, and he had not come back to his senses.

"His Royal Highness King Qing, hurry up, Your Majesty's Thousand Autumn Festival dinner is about to start." Fei Xiang urged. Since the disappearance of Wang Zizhao, Wang Chang has changed his previous cautious style, and somehow sealed twelve princes at once. The eldest prince Wang Zizhan was named the king of Wei, and the twelfth prince Wang Ziqian was named the king of Qing.

"In August, the calyx floor is usually played, and all directions play together for a thousand years. The people of Allure looked at the long rod, and Zhao relieved his worries at the beginning of a trick. ”

At this time, the Calyx Tower was already full of people, Fei Yun and Li Chongli each brought thousands of Jinwu to guard, and at the same time, the Wuhou Mansion, which was responsible for the guard of the capital, also sent tens of thousands of horses to be responsible for the security of the capital and the Calyx Tower along the road. In order to welcome the envoys of various countries, the master of ceremonies of Taichang Temple and the singing and dancing prostitutes of the Jiaofang Division have come to the calyx building to arrange since the beginning of the Yin period.

Nowadays, the mountain car, dry boat, rope, pill sword, acrobatics, horn, hundred opera and other local opera troupes have entered their respective venues step by step, and hundreds of elephants, rhinoceros, and dancing horses from various countries in the Western Regions have also been ceremoniously decorated and stationed in the temporary post house around the calyx building.

On the same day, the hundred officials had already prepared their own birthday gifts around the themes of happiness, longevity, and auspiciousness. Beginning at noon, envoys from various countries presented birthday gifts to Wang Chang in turn, including jade, wood carvings, porcelain, jewelry, gold ornaments, etc. After the birthday gift, Xian Liangchen, the envoy of Taibai State, looked left and right, but did not find the figure of Wang Zizhao among the many princes, and couldn't help but wonder.

The last to appear to celebrate his birthday was the envoy Ma Jiaqi sent by the Buyeo State, only to see him holding a painting scroll, and stepped forward to salute and said: "The Lord of the Buyeo Kingdom presents a painting scroll of the Lord of the Yunmeng Kingdom, this painting is specially made by my country's top painter Xu Fengfeng for Your Majesty's birthday, may Your Majesty be blessed with the sky!" Longevity without borders! ”

When the envoys saw that Fuyu was so stingy, they couldn't help but laugh and be generous, and they were a little ashamed in their hearts. Wang Chang only bowed slightly, this Buyeo country has not come to the dynasty for thirty years, so he doesn't have much hope for Gao Tanli's birthday gift.

The master of ceremonies was about to lead Ma Jiaqi, the envoy of the Fuyu Kingdom, into the banquet and take a seat, but the envoy suddenly laughed loudly and unpresumptuously: "Your Majesty, are you not interested in this painting at all?"

Then, before the master of ceremonies came to his side, he suddenly shook the painting open in public, only to see a young man wearing a goose yellow satin embroidered five-poison sachet leaping onto the paper.
