Shangyuan Festival, that is, the Lantern Festival, is another carnival festival for the people of the Great Song Dynasty.
Just like the Mid-Autumn Festival, the streets and alleys of Qingzhou City have been lively since the beginning of the day. Dragon and lion dances, stilt performers, and jugglers all flock to those bustling streets. Of course, like the Mid-Autumn Festival, the evening is the carnival and lively climax of the Shangyuan Festival.
On the night of the Shangyuan Festival, the lights and candles in Qingzhou City are burning, the sound of gongs and drums, the sound of firecrackers, the colorful lights of the streets and alleys are hung high, the lights of a hundred miles are endless, and there is a festive everywhere, none of which shows that the Shangyuan Festival is one of the most carnival and happiest festivals in Qingzhou.
When Zhong Hao walked to the street, the streets and alleys had already become a sea of joy.
Zhong Hao came out with Xu Feng, and of course there were two beauties behind him, one big and one small.
Xu Feng and Su Xiaotao are now hot, but they have not yet married, and the Xu family is a standard scholarly family, so it is not good for the two to go out in pairs together. So Xu Feng came up with a workaround, he asked Zhong Hao's family to come out to enjoy the lanterns together, and asked Wan'er to go to Su Xiaotao with him.
Xu Feng often comes to Zhong Hao's house, he is humorous, and he is good to Wan'er, Wan'er is very willing to be close to this brother of the family, and is very willing to obey Xu Feng's arrangement, so he went to invite her Sister Su here. Feng didn't want to affect the fun of the younger generation, so he didn't come out.
Although in fact, Xu Feng and Su Xiaotao are inseparable, but nominally Xu Feng and Zhong Hao came out to enjoy the lanterns.
A full moon hung high in the sky, and the silver light scattered all over the ground illuminated the earth very brightly.
Su Xiaotao and Wan'er were excitedly strolling around Haidai Street, picking up a few gadgets at the grocery stall, buying a few snacks to try, and going to see juggling.
Zhong Hao had a bitter face helplessly, and followed behind them, this is purely to accompany the beautiful woman to go shopping, and he plans to see the different romance in the Qinlou Chu Pavilion!
Xu Feng was very interested, followed behind the two beauties, and Le Hehe was responsible for paying.
The lantern festival on Haidai Street during the Shangyuan Festival is very lively, crowded with people who come to watch. All kinds of lanterns, some are placed on the street, some are hung on the ropes that are pulled, not only the rich people want to make lanterns, but even the government yamen also wants to make lanterns and enjoy with the people.
On Haidai Street, the color building, the color shop continues, the lamp fang, the lamp tower, the light gallery, the lamp shed are connected for several miles, whether the people or all kinds of shops, or the homes of the dignitaries, all are full of lights. There are also lantern riddles on many lanterns, the elegance and vulgarity are different, many literati and scholars stand under the lamp and shake their heads to taste, Haidai Street is brightly lit, lively and extraordinary.
There is an endless stream of tricksters and snacks on the street. Shangyuan Festival, the whole Qingzhou city is very lively, the scholars and girls all travel at night, these three days can all put down their bodies, enjoy the joy, many of the rare to see those wealthy daughters are also accompanied by the maids and slaves to watch the lights on the street, so that the whole Qingzhou city is jammed with cars and horses, and the crowd is surging.
If it is usually so crowded, it is inevitable that some impatient people will not be able to help but scold, but now that it is a festival, it is this lively energy, but no one feels impatient. Everyone is taking a figure-of-eight step, looking around, pointing and laughing, if the light wheel, lamp tree, and lamp tower in front of the door of a family are new, and the style is exquisite, it attracts many people to watch.
Su Xiaotao and Wan'er finally had enough shopping on Haidai Street, and Zhong Hao strongly asked to go to the banks of the Nanyang River to watch the performances of the famous prostitutes of the Qinlou Chu Pavilion.
On the happy day of the Shangyuan Festival, the prostitutes of the Qinlou Chu Pavilion are naturally indispensable, and they always decorate this festival with a layer of reverie and beautiful crimson.
This year is a bit cold, and the Nanyang River is frozen. But this can not stop the enthusiasm of the people of Qingzhou to enjoy, for the Shangyuan Festival, Yidu County Ya organized people to break the ice early today, clearing. At night, in the Nanyang River, there are already cruise boats. The Great Song Dynasty is now rich in people and is in a peaceful and prosperous era, so the government and the people are quite concerned about the elegant things of pleasure.
The silk and bamboo are melodious, the singing is fluttering, and the banks of the Nanyang River are full of joy!
Of course, on this day of universal celebration, the poetry meeting of the scribes and scholars is naturally indispensable, just like the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting, the Qinlou Chu Hall is also overcrowded, and there are groups of literati and scholars everywhere to chant poems against each other, and compete with each other. The beauties with beautiful makeup and fresh clothes are singing and dancing.
Xu Feng's whole mind today is on Su Xiaotao, and he has no interest in literati poetry and beautiful singers and dances. Zhong Hao wanted to stop and watch the beautiful woman's performance but couldn't, because Su Xiaotao and Wan'er were shuttling through the lanterns on the bank of the Nanyang River to enjoy the lanterns and guess the lantern riddles, and their footsteps never stopped.
Xu Feng made it brilliant in front of the two beauties, and tried his best to guess lantern riddles and earn lanterns for them. Xu Feng's writing is extraordinary, and his knowledge is also quite profound, guessing lantern riddles is not difficult for him, and in a short time, Wan'er and Su Xiaotao each have three or four more lanterns in their hands. Su Xiaotao was still unsatisfied, and the lanterns that she couldn't hold were all given away.
Su Xiaotao looked at Xu Feng, who could solve the riddle casually, and his eyes were full of little stars.
Zhong Hao looked at the three people who were having a lot of fun and was speechless, and he agreed to come out with Xu Feng to enjoy the lanterns, which was really a big mistake. If you were with your classmates in the Reckless Hall, I'm afraid I'd already be drinking a little wine at this time, watching the beauty sing and dance-
Zhong Hao was very depressed and followed behind the three people who were playing, and suddenly there were bursts of cheers from the crowd, it turned out that it was already the right time at this time, and the time for fireworks had arrived!
There was a loud "bang", and a brilliant firework exploded in the sky, and the fireworks began to be set off.
The exploded fireworks were like a beautiful lotus flower spreading its petals in the air. Immediately after that, the fireworks flew into the sky again, and the sound of loud firecrackers and the brilliant fireworks flew in the sky.
It turned out that the fireworks of the Great Song Dynasty were so ripe, Zhong Hao saw the beautiful scene, forgot to complain for a while, looked up at the sky, and enjoyed the fireworks with great interest.
At one time, all kinds of colorful fireworks dotted the sky into a flower, and the night sky suddenly became dazzling. All kinds of fireworks are like thousands of purples and thousands of reds, full of flowers, full of stars, and a hundred flowers are blooming...... Coupled with the background of the sky, it seems that the fireworks are like fairies in the sky, what a magnificent scene!
"Miss, this firework is so beautiful!"
"Although the fireworks bloom for a short moment, they are so gorgeous in a moment, and it is not in vain!"
Zhong Hao, who was looking up at the sky, suddenly heard someone whispering and turned his head to look.
At first glance, I couldn't help but be stunned. Not far away, under a tree full of thousands of colorful lanterns, a beautiful woman wearing a white mink fur is looking at the fireworks in the sky obsessively, delicate and beautiful. That beauty is the plum blossom poetry meeting that day, Zhong Hao met the gentle and lovely lady.
"The crowd looked for him thousands of times, and suddenly looked back, but the man was there, and the lights were dim." Zhong Hao looked at the beautiful woman in a daze, and involuntarily said this appropriate sentence in his mouth.
The beautiful master and servant seemed to hear Zhong Hao's verses, and couldn't help but look at Zhong Hao. The beautiful woman also seemed to recognize Zhong Hao, her eyes flashed, and a pretty face suddenly flew up a piece of red, which was even more bright and moving, making people look at it directly.
The handsome little maid saw Zhong Hao looking straight at her own miss, and couldn't help glaring at Zhong Hao with hatred, and said "Dengzi", and sideways blocked in front of her young lady, blocking Zhong Hao's sight.
Xu Feng, who was secretly holding Su Xiaotao's hand and looking up at the sky, heard the movement and looked at Zhong Hao, and saw that Zhong Hao was looking at the tree full of colorful lanterns stupidly, and couldn't help but follow his gaze, and was catching a glimpse of the beautiful master and servant who turned around and was leaving.
His vision was not blocked by the handsome little girl, and after seeing the face of the beautiful woman clearly, his expression couldn't help but be stunned.
Until the beautiful master and servant left, Zhong Hao kept looking at it in a daze.
"Wenxuan, people are gone, still watch!"
"Uh......" Zhong Hao came back to his senses. When he came back to his senses and saw the smiling eyes of Xu Feng and the others, Zhong Hao couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
"'The crowd looked for him a thousand times, and suddenly looked back, but the man was there, and the lights were dim.' Wen Xuan's words are full of charm, and he deserves to be a great talent. Wouldn't that little lady be the beauty that Wenxuan thinks about day and night? ”
"Uh...... Third brother, don't laugh at the little brother! ”
"That little lady has a lot of background, if Wen Xuan wants to take her down, I'm afraid it will be very difficult!"
"Ah...... Does the third brother know her? ”
"I've really seen it once, hehe, if you beg the third brother, the third brother will tell you that she is the little lady?"
"Third brother, please", Zhong Hao looked at Su Xiaotao and said, "Besides, you and your sister-in-law are here, the younger brother has helped!" You can't help your little brother! ”
"That little lady is the second lady of the rich family, and her name is Fu Ruozhu! Hey, hey, big deal? ”
"Sizzle...... It's a bit big, indeed! ”
"I'm afraid the vision of the rich minister's son-in-law is very high, do you know who the eldest lady of the rich minister's family married?"
"Uh...... Who is it? ”
"Last year, the champion of the Chou Branch, Feng Jing Feng of Lianzhong Sanyuan, was born! Miss Fu's grandfather, Yan Xianggong, 'caught a son-in-law under the list' and personally chose a family affair for Miss Fu! Alas, it's a pity that the third brother didn't get into school, and no one caught me as a fast son-in-law of Chenglong! ”
When Su Xiaotao heard this, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, "Whose son-in-law do you want to be?" ”
Xu Feng didn't notice it, said bald, and when he saw Su Xiaotao's cannibalistic gaze, he couldn't help but hurriedly beg for mercy, and said with a smile: "Isn't this about the second rich lady?" I said casually, Xiao Tao, don't take it to heart! ”
Xu Feng continued: "Wen Xuan wants to catch up with Miss Fu Er, I'm afraid it will be quite difficult." ”
"Uh......" Zhong Hao replied unconsciously. After listening to Xu Feng's words, he never eased up. finally found the beauty of the dream, but found that the person is super white and rich, my father has been the ruler, my grandfather has been the prime minister, and my brother-in-law is the champion...... I really don't have the courage to pursue others as a poor **.
Xu Feng saw that he seemed to have hit Zhong Hao, and couldn't help but feel comforted: "Of course Wenxuan, don't be discouraged, you are extremely talented, maybe a good song can impress Miss Fu Er!" How can there be a beautiful woman who doesn't love the wind and talent, the song you just wrote is good, 'The crowd is looking for him thousands of times, and suddenly looking back, but the person is there, and the lights are dim', full of charm. Say the whole word and listen to it! ”
Hearing Xu Feng say this, Zhong Hao's eyes lit up, and he regained a lot of confidence, that is, he has a lot of good words, and now he is also a first-class talent in Qingzhou, so he can't be arrogant. Maybe you can throw a few good words and win the favor of that beauty!
Su Xiaotao saw that Zhong Hao had been wandering in the world, and she was also eager to hear the lyrics, so she couldn't help but stomp her feet in a hurry, and said loudly: "Hey, I said you don't want to be in the fugue, but quickly talk about the whole word!" ”
Zhong Hao came back to his senses at this time, and now he put his hands behind his back, pretending to be a talented man, and said in a loud voice:
"Thousands of trees bloom at night in the east wind. More blows down, stars like rain. BMW carved cars are full of fragrance. The sound of the phoenix flute moves, the light of the jade pot turns, and the fish and dragon dance all night.
Moth snow willow golden wisps. The laughter is full of dark fragrance. The crowd is looking for him thousands of times. Suddenly looking back, the man was there, and the lights were dim. ”
Su Xiaotao was stunned for a while, and Xu Feng was also amazed.
"Does the third brother think I look handsome in poetry? Can you impress Miss Fu Er? Zhong Hao, who had regained his confidence, said with a smile.
"Haha, people are just average, not as handsome as me, this word is wonderful, Miss Fu Er listened to it, and she was moved!" Xu Feng also joked with a smile.
