Chapter 253 Who can sit idly when he sees the moon, and he can't see where he smells the lights

What kind of rice, you have to pay the bills, and the reward you said is not counted?

Xu Qilin was really speechless to His Majesty Li Er, although it was a joke, but what if it was true? Just because you can't make poems, gunpowder drills are in vain?

If you want to write poems and lyrics, it doesn't matter if it describes fireworks or the prosperous scene of the Shangyuan Festival, Xu Qilin is not stunned.

For example, Xin Qiji's "Qingyu Case? Yuan Xi", as soon as this word came out, who competed with it, and it was claimed that no one would dare to fill in the words on the Yuan Festival in the future.

What east wind blooms thousands of trees at night, what is looking for it thousands of times, and there are suddenly looking back and the lights are gone, but they are all famous sentences that have been passed down through the ages, and they are catchy to read, touching and emotional.

But because this word is too high-end and too bullish, Xu Qilin is reluctant to waste it. In a few more years, if you use this word to pretend to be forced in the Qinglou, you must not be robbed by the girls!

Therefore, Xu Qilin scratched his ears and cheeks, and wanted to use a poem that was about the same, which could not only satisfy His Majesty Li Er, but also not be too amazing.

Let's say that on the palace wall, His Majesty Li Er sent the guards to pass the word, and couldn't help but purse his lips and smile secretly.

Whether Xu Qilin can make poems or not, it doesn't matter, what is rare is that the fireworks tonight are brilliant and gorgeous, and he has never seen them in his life, which opened his eyes.

At the same time, while he was in a happy mood, he wanted to regulate Xu Qilin and let him not be too proud.

If he can really make good poems, His Majesty Li Er will reward him according to the agreement, and he will not suffer any loss.

But if you can't do it, you just hit Xu Qilin, and the reward will still be given. In other words, His Majesty Li Er did this purely because of his own bad taste.

Just when His Majesty Li Er was stroking his beard and was complacent, a drumbeat sounded below, indicating that someone was offering poems again.

The drum stopped for a while, and the clear and agitated female voice sounded, "Xu Qilin, the big Ying Kuku, presented a poem of "Flower Lantern on the Fifteenth Day of the First Lunar Month". ”

His Majesty Li Er couldn't help but roll his eyes, what is this name, it can't be elegant, what Yuan Xi, Shangyuan, not the whole is so popular.

He is a bad taste, Xu Qilin is also very angry, and deliberately chose such a name, so he didn't want His Majesty Li Er to be too comfortable. Our poem is not a good name, but it has content and connotation!

Together, the kabuki sang in a graceful voice, and the singing was very penetrating, and the people on the palace wall could hear it clearly.

"The jade leaks the silver kettle and don't urge, the iron lock is open. Who can sit idly when they see the moon, and where can they not see the lights? ”

Good poetry! When Xu Hui heard the name of the poem, she couldn't help but hide her mouth and snicker, thinking that her little brother was messing around, but as soon as the poem was sung, her eyes lit up, and she secretly said that she was surprised.

first wrote the emotion of the short days of entertainment, and then wrote that after the curfew was lifted, every family had dinner and went out to play in a new dress.

did not directly write anything crowded and brightly lit, but the last two sentences describe the grand occasion of empty alleys from the side.

Only the four words "who's home" and "where" will be full of people's voices, cars like flowing water, horses like dragons, flashing lights, prosperous and prosperous night scenes, but also give people infinite room for aftertaste, words are endless and meaningless.

After the poem is sung, the aftermath is not faint, and a few fireworks rise again, as bright as stars and beautiful as flowers and rain.

Hehe, you command the fireworks, so you can't set off the background and set off it well?

This stinky boy! His Majesty Li Er rolled his eyes again, whether it can be regarded as using power for personal gain, this is debatable, but this poem is excellent, only the name is uncomfortable.

"Your Majesty rewarded Xu Qilin with a golden saber." The shrill voices of the palace people passed down one by one.

Is it really a sword made of gold? Of course, Xu Qilin knew that it was not, and he also knew that this was just glory and not valuable. But under the watchful eye, his reputation can soar because of this.

Is it useful to have a big reputation? The answer is yes. Fame and fortune, isn't this the pursuit of life, what is indifferent, what dung, but it is the psychology of saying sour when you can't eat grapes.

As the last stars disappear into the night sky, the fireworks show is finally over, leaving people with only unfinished thoughts and long-term reluctance to leave.

"Father, that's the car in Sister's house." The son stretched out his hand and pointed, and the slight loss after watching the fireworks was replaced by the joy of watching the lanterns and night tour.

His Majesty Li Er nodded, called the head of the guards, and gave careful instructions before they let them escort the two little dukes out of the palace.

Looking up at the bright light tree, and then looking into the distance, the lights in Chang'an City were bright, His Majesty Li Er suddenly felt something, and silently chanted "Who can sit idly when he sees the moon, and where he doesn't see the lights", with an intriguing smile on his face.

……………

The two Xiao Gongju and Xiao Zhao had already gathered together, giggling in laughter.

The Xu family team was also divided into two, and Xu Qili accompanied the Chen family to play and watch the lanterns; Xu Qilin and his friends, as well as the palace guards, accompanied Xiaogong to enjoy the lanterns.

On the night of the New Year's Eve, there were people everywhere. Princes and nobles, common people, literati, monks and Taoists, geisha, and women of good families all seemed to have become a class on this carnival night.

People shouted and laughed in groups, pouring out of the alleys, merging into the streets, and merging into the noisy and jubilant flow of people.

There are colorful lights everywhere, as well as juggling, singing, dancing lanterns and other performances, attracting people to stop and stop, comment, play, and admire. The more I watch, the happier I am, and the more I play, the more excited I become,

The three little girls were dressed thickly, and they had already left the carriage, walking and watching in a circle formed by everyone, playing and laughing.

"There are lantern riddles there, and there are prizes in guessing." The son pulled Xu Qilin's sleeve and stretched out his little finger.

Xu Qilin stretched out his hand and pointed and said in high spirits: "Let's go, go guess the lantern riddle, and let the store give the prize to cry." ”

Hahahaha, Yu Chihuan and the others laughed, and walked proudly first, like a group of evil slaves and murderers, squeezing through the crowd in front of them, causing passers-by to look sideways.

People are all squeezed out, these twenty or thirty people have taken up all the riddles, how can there be a chance for others to guess?

"Uncle, hold me!" The son was on tiptoe with his face up, but he couldn't see clearly.

Xu Qilin bent down and was about to pick up the little princess, and the other also came over and pulled him by the sleeve, but it was Xincheng who was grinning.

Hug, hug, all have to hug. Xu Qilin was on one side, and felt that his strength was really not small.

Xiao Zhao stopped doing it, jumped over all of a sudden, and saw that there was still room on his back, so he climbed up neatly.

Three! Xu Qilin grinned, hey, he stood up.

Now I can see it clearly, the three little girls looked up at the lantern riddle, and the sound of chirping poured Xu Qilin's ears.

"Zhongni Riyue is Kong Ming, I guessed it." The son stretched out his hand and pointed at the shopkeeper with big eyes.

"It's not frightening to fall all over the ground. It's Xie An. Not to be outdone, Xiao Zhao stretched out another lantern riddle.

Xu Qilin glared, "Don't be stunned, guess the prize correctly!" ”

"Yes, yes, the two little ladies guessed right." The shopkeeper was not easy to mess with when he saw these guys, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to signal, "These prizes are available to choose from, and one of them will be won if you guess one of them." ”

The two girls opened their eyes wide to see that they were all ordinary objects, fans, porcelain toys, brushes, and so on.

"That, I want that." Xincheng was not polite, and stretched out his hand to point to a porcelain doll and shouted.

"There's nothing good, let Xincheng pick it!" Xiao Zhao didn't look down on these objects at all, and generously gave away the prize.

The son also pursed his lips and looked up to continue to look at the riddle.

"Hey, it's a four-sided riddle." Xiao Zhao let out a startled sound, attracting the attention of his son.

"If you guess the four riddles, you can get this lantern!" The son laughed, "It's pretty good." Come on, let's guess together, we have to win this lantern. ”

"Little lady, it's good to sit here." Scarlett cared about Xu Qilin the most, and seeing that he was hugging and carrying him very hard, she crossed her hands with Adjani, got a seat, and coaxed Xiao Zhao with a smile.

Xiao Zhao turned his head to look at it, and felt that it was quite comfortable, so he changed it with a smile.

Since it is to win this lantern, this riddle is of course very difficult, and there are four, and it should be the finale here.

"When you draw a circle, when you write a square, when you write a short time, when you spend a lot of time in summer. Typing. ”

"Don't get close to the fireworks. Typing. ”

"The wind goes and comes, and the geese in front of the peak are slanting. Two-character object names. ”

"The person who came turned out to be Penglaike. Typing. ”

A guard stretched out his hand and slowly turned the lantern to show the four riddles to everyone one by one.

"It's harder!" The son was wearing gloves, frowning, and his face was embarrassed.

Xiao Zhao didn't speak, scratching his head with his little hands, contemplating.

Xu Qilin looked left and right, and motioned for everyone to guess together, how to take down this lantern.

Wei Chihuan pretended to be pretty, Cheng Chubi smiled, Li Wuzhong scratched his ears and cheeks, looking at this bear, there was no one reliable.

Xu Qilin hugged the two little cats and bears, and had the intention to secretly give the shopkeeper two silver cakes so that he could know the answer, even if he spent a lot of money to buy the lanterns, he couldn't get out.

In desperation, he had no choice but to resort to Dafa and find someone who was capable to help.

"Draw the time round, write the time square......" Xiao Zhao seemed to have an understanding, looked up at the round moon in the sky, and muttered: "Winter is short, summer is long." It's like, it's like the sun. ”

Xu Qilin smiled at the little sister's jaw and encouraged her to continue to associate.

"Is it the word 'day'!?" Xiao Zhao had a surprise on his face, but he wasn't sure yet.

"That's right, the sun is the 'sun'! Xu Qilin praised loudly, "Boss, this mystery has been guessed, right?" ”

"That's right, that's right." The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Little lady accompanies Hui, this riddle is very correct." ”

Xu Qilin couldn't guess directly, how boring it was, so he began to follow the temptation, "Don't get close to this fireworks, it's mainly the word smoke, don't get close to the fire, what has become?" ”

"Smokeβ€”" The son blinked his eyes and pondered, and said slowly, "Don't go near the fire, it's just that there is no fireβ€”ah, that's a cause word." ”

"What about a more relaxed heart?" Xu Qilin smiled and continued to prompt.

"Because of the word, I add heart-" The son clapped his little hand and shouted happily, "It's a 'grace' word." ”

"Boss, did you guess right again?" Before Xu Qilin could speak, Wei Chihuan had already shouted loudly, glaring at him, as if he was going to beat someone if he didn't guess correctly.

"Yes, yes, the riddle was guessed correctly." The shopkeeper nodded, eager to send the lantern and send the gang away.

Xiao Zhao pondered the third riddle, and muttered in his mouth: "The wind goes and comes, the inside is removed, and another one is added, that is the phoenix." The geese in front of this peak are slantingβ€”" shook his little head and pouted.

"What's the word in front of the peak?" Xu Qilin turned on the prompt mode again.

"It's a mountain!"

"What kind of formation do geese fly in?"

"That- looks like a herringbone formation, right?"

"What's the side of the herringbone slanted?"

"Oh, oh, it's a single person, plus the mountain, it's a fairy."

"The front is a phoenix, the back is a fairy, and this item is a narcissus."

The shopkeeper didn't need to ask, so he quickly replied, "It's Narcissus, the two little ladies guessed correctly again." ”

"Haha, there's only one one left." The son felt that victory was in sight, and his spirit was also uplifted.

Xiao Zhao also grinned, but when he saw that his brother was powerful, he wanted to be opportunistic and asked, "Brother, can you give me a hint!" ”

Xu Qilin nodded with a smile and said, "Who is Penglaike, you can think of the most appropriate name and express it in one word." ”

"Penglai is a fairy mountainβ€”"

"Penglaike is an immortal."

"One word is Xianbei!"

Xu Qilin said with a smile: "If someone comes is an immortal, what about someone who doesn't come, what is the word?" ”

"It's a mountain!" The two little girls spoke almost in unison, then glanced at each other and grinned.

"Congratulations, congratulations, all four riddles have been guessed." The shop took the initiative to take down the lantern and handed it over.

Xincheng didn't do anything, but his hand stretched out quickly, giggling and leaning in to pick it up.

Xu Qilin saw that the light was very loud, and hurriedly asked the guards to take it, in order to reassure Xincheng, he also added: "Write it down, this is Xincheng's, don't lose it." ”

Xincheng nodded his little head again and again, thinking that his uncle was really decent, and he would give it to himself when he said it was for himself.

The son pouted, but it was not easy to argue with the little sister, so he looked at the uncle and said, "I want the lantern too." ”

Xiao Zhao smiled and said, "Go, go, let's go to another house to guess the riddle, just the lantern, not anything else." ”

Xu Qilin laughed and said, "That's right, let's guess all the way and win all the reward lanterns, everyone has it." ”

The interest of a group of people suddenly increased, although the lanterns are not expensive, but in this festival, they are not empty-handed, and they are also very commemorative.

It's good now, Xu Qilin and others have really become gentlemen, relying on the large number of people, they will pack a stall as soon as they squeeze, and guess if there is a lantern reward, and they will not go away in a flash.

They don't just walk the streets, sometimes they even go into the shop to watch the lights. There are people who are familiar with the place names and also serve as guides, but the two little princesses have learned a lot of geographical knowledge of Chang'an.

"Yankang Fangβ€”β€”" Xu Qilin perked up and said to the two little princesses: "King Wei's mansion is in this place, let's go and take a look, if there is a beautiful lamp, don't guess the riddle, just take it." ”

"Since it's the fourth brother's family, then I have to go and see it." The son's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Take him a few lanterns and see who dares not to let him." ”

Li Si is fat, don't look at you fat, you have to coax these two with all your heart. On intimacy, it's your sister-in-law; In terms of favor, this is His Majesty's intimate little padded jacket, even you have to bow down, right?

Xu Qilin smiled evilly and led the men and horses to rush away.
