Chapter 3 Lantern Riddles
The dinner party has been prepared, and the various lanterns in the hall are hung in rows and rows, each hanging a small note, which should be a lantern riddle.
For the first time in five years, she was truly in this kind of celebration, and she couldn't help but feel soft in her heart, and called the chief manager to give a few instructions.
The chief manager was overjoyed, pinched his throat and shouted to the hall: "Your Majesty said, the person who guesses the lantern riddle the most, regardless of his status and identity, has a big reward!" ”
Feng Yewu had a purpose, and the hall suddenly became more lively and noisy, and everyone was scrambling to guess the riddle and discussing it loudly. Lu Jue also smiled and went to the center of the hall, caught a lantern riddle, and pondered it carefully.
"There are only a dozen people who haven't guessed it, can you do it?" The little eunuch in charge of this piece of lantern riddle passed by, looked at Lu Jue and sneered.
Lu Jue let go of the paper, looked at Feng Yewu, who was enjoying the singing and dancing in front of the seat on the phoenix chair, and muttered: "The emperor entered the mortal world and turned snow into nothing." The mystery is 'Phoenix'. ”
“…… Count me out! The little eunuch didn't expect this strange face to have some ability, so he reluctantly handed him a red rope as proof of guessing.
"I don't want this rope, can I give me the lamp?" Lu Jue lifted the lantern and turned it around, and said to the little eunuch.
The little eunuch looked surprised, but one less riddle would be less trouble to take care of, and he was very happy: "It's all good for you." ”
"Thank you." Lu Jue smiled gently.
Feng Yewu was not very interested in the lantern riddles, but felt that the Hu Xuan Dance of the Western Regions in front of the steps was quite interesting, and he saw that it was rising, but he vaguely heard the discussion of the palace maids in the palace.
"Who is that man? So handsome! "I heard that it was His Majesty's new entourage, and I happened to bump into him admiring the flowers in the Imperial Garden before, and I thought it was a fairy descending to earth!" "Oops, I'm going to guess some more riddles! If you get a reward, give it to him! "I'm going to ...... too"
Many palace maids followed Lu Jue, who was guessing the lantern riddle, their expressions were full of admiration, and they were smiling and discussing. Feng Yewu was thoughtful, Lu Jue's temperament and appearance were good, and it was normal for women to admire.
Lu Jue, who was not far away, was holding a lantern in his hand, and was looking up intently pinching a lantern riddle to think, with a handsome face. Is he also looking for a reward to give to someone he likes? His preferred ...... Will it be a gentle woman, or will it be more lively? Or ...... The more Feng Yewu thought about it, the farther she went, and it took a while for a while to suddenly come back to her senses, what was she thinking about just now!
"Your Majesty, ...... you" Lu Jue came over with a lantern at some point, and was looking at Feng Yewu in amazement. Feng Yewu felt that her ears were already hot because she felt embarrassed, so she could only pretend to be calm, suppressed the strange cold voice in her heart, and said, "It's okay!" ”
Lu Jue looked dazed, and smiled helplessly and handed the lantern in his hand to Feng Yewu: "The slave wants to give you this." ”
Feng Yewu raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand to take it, and saw that on the lantern was a phoenix chick staying on the edge of the dense bamboo forest, about to spread its wings.
Lu Jue: "I don't know which palace person's ingenuity. Last time in the Imperial Garden, the slave saw that you always looked at the green bamboo on the slave's robe, and I thought you should like it, so I brought you this lantern. ”
His mind is so delicate. Feng Yewu was secretly surprised in her heart, and just smiled faintly on her face: "I have a heart." Don't worry too much about loneliness, just go. ”
Lu Jue saluted and left, Feng Yewu looked at his tall back, and his heart moved. If he really has someone he likes, he will treat it with the same care as he serves the monarch, right? Thinking of this, Feng Yewu felt a little strange in her heart, so she dissipated the thought of continuing to think about it.
There are a lot of lanterns, and the palace people hurriedly touched the next riddle if they couldn't guess it, wanting to guess more.
Only Lu Jue's expression was calm, he guessed one by one in order, and after a few moments of silence, he could get the answer to the riddle, and he answered correctly again and again, without any mistakes! He went around most of the palace in a blink of an eye, with nearly a hundred red ropes in his hands, and later, the palace maids and eunuchs all gave up guessing riddles one after another, and gathered around Lu Jue to watch the excitement, and from time to time there was a burst of small cheers.
"This is the last riddle!" The shrill voice of the chief manager dragged Feng Yewu, who was already sleepy, back to his senses, and the people in the hall gradually quieted down. Lu Jue was holding the note hanging from the last lantern and reading out the riddle.
"The swan flies away and the bird does not return,
Countless cold stars,
There is a desire to say but no words,
People are married to each other......"
Lu Jue's cold voice was low and clear: "The mystery is, I like you ......" As he spoke, his voice gradually lowered. Until the end, Lu Jue had bowed his head and was silent, as if he was whispering to a woman in his heart.
Feng Yewu suddenly woke up, and the palace maids who were close to Lu Jue lowered their heads shyly, and the chattering discussion gradually started again.
The chief manager smiled again: "Ouch, that's amazing! Tonight's reward belongs to you! Then he approached and whispered, "This reward can be given to your favorite woman!" ”
Lu Jue smiled, looked up at Feng Yewu, and smiled lightly.
Feng Yewu listened to the manager's words clearly, and her heart became even more irritable, and she didn't pay attention to Lu Jue's eyes full of meaning at all.
Do you give it to a woman you love......
