Chapter 7 Shangyuan Lantern will solve the word puzzle
Back in the palace, Yang Yiyou thought about it carefully and decided to tell his mother about it.
Concubine Ning listened to Yang Yi's plan, and didn't say much, but decided to wait for the painting to start embroidery, so she went to the palace every day to help, just using the more and more proficient Shu embroidery long and short needle embroidery method.
Yang Yi thought about it and agreed, originally the concubines in the palace could not go out of the palace at will, but Yang Yi's mother and son were neglected for many years, and the palace almost did not send daily necessities again, they all went out to the market to buy by themselves, of course, they could not go through the main palace gate, they all entered and exited from the side door of the subordinates.
"It's good for my mother to go out for a walk more, but I'm in this palace all day long, and I'm stuffy."
After discussing it with his mother again, he decided on some details, such as keeping the matter as secret as possible in the palace, which was not a difficult point, and no one cared what a stupid prince was doing.
Because the time was relatively tight, in the following days, Yang Yi rushed to Liu Wenzheng's house and the palace, although this matter did not require much money, it was more labor-intensive and needed a lot of people to help.
Mr. and Mrs. Liu Wenzheng have lived in Beijing for many years and are relatively honest people, so they have made a lot of friends.
On the painting, Liu Wenzheng found several friends, all of whom were scholars from middle and middle schools, or Luodi Wenzi, and when they heard that Liu Wenzheng wanted to complete such a painting, they all readily agreed.
Liu Wenzheng's wife gathered the sisters in the embroidery room and got ready, just waiting for the painting to come out and start working overtime, before which Concubine Ning taught everyone a new embroidery stitch.
Even if Yang Yi describes a miniature version of "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival", it is still not easy to complete this painting.
According to Yang Yi's understanding, the level of literature and paintings in the Daguang Dynasty has reached an unprecedented height, very similar to the Tang and Song dynasties in the previous life.
Especially in the aspect of painting, figure painting, landscape painting, flower and bird painting and even religious paintings have developed relatively maturely, and many masterpieces have emerged. But it has not yet entered into secularization. Whether it is a figure or a landscape or a high-end realm, the work is conceived from the perspective of the aristocracy.
However, Yang Yi's proposal for this kind of wide-angle painting, which depicts a room and market scene, has hardly appeared, and there is not even a classification, when Liu Wenzheng and others discussed, because this painting involves a lot of architectural structure proportions, some people even classify it as a boundary painting.
What is boundary painting, that is, the painting used by craftsmen, in modern times we call it architectural drawings.
Of course, Yang Yi would not agree with this opinion of self-identification, and finally had to characterize it as a genre painting that was about to disappear, and even changed its name ...... "Daguang Shangjingtu".
In this piece of busyness, the most idle is Yang Yi.
At first, Yang Yi would go to the painting boat to take a look, but found that when Liu Wenzheng and others entered the state of painting, they had no time to take care of themselves, and they were redundant.
Yang Yi simply went to see the progress every day, so he didn't stay there.
Later, Yang Yi found that he was still useful, sometimes Liu Wenzheng and others wanted to paint the image of a street vendor, and many businessmen held the principle that more is better than less, and clearly refused.
Yang Yi didn't say much, asked someone to bring a chair, sat in front of the shop and knocked melon seeds, one sat for a day, the dark attribute of the whole body was exerted to the extreme, and almost no one dared to step into the shop.
Since then, no one in the whole street has not cooperated with Liu Wenzheng and others to paint, and even watched the tea set up and waited, and the only requirement was that the Nine Emperor Princes should not come!
In the blink of an eye, the New Year passed, and on the day of the Shangyuan Festival, the entire imperial capital was festive, especially in the palace, every place was full of red silk lanterns, the sound of fireworks and firecrackers could be heard everywhere, and even Yang Yi's house hung a few red lanterns.
The lantern festival in the palace will not start until the evening, saying that the whole world celebrates with the people, of course, it is impossible to really let the people enter the palace, most of the people who can come in are the relatives of the emperor, the officials of the dynasty, the villagers and celebrities, and the most important are some rich businessmen.
Yang Yi and Liu Wenzheng have made an appointment, and the embroidery paintings will be sent to the palace gate before the lantern festival starts, and Yang Yi will take them in.
After the emperor sacrifices to the sky, a hundred officials will be held to congratulate, before that there will be lion dances, fireworks, lanterns, garden tours and other ceremonial activities, the richness of the content is not inferior to the modern festival activities of later generations, only hate Yang Yi secretly said why there is no mobile phone, if this is a circle of friends, enough to show off for half a year.
However, the so-called garden is not as much as the tricks of later generations, it is a simple guess of the lantern riddles, Yang Yi walked around, most of the lantern riddles are some poems, interesting sentences, far worse than the strange lantern riddles in later generations.
Yang Yi still remembers the garden activities in college, and a few lewd men in his dormitory made a lot of yellow jokes and lantern riddles, and everyone was bursting!
"Miss! Miss! What is this? A maid's voice asked.
Yang Yi didn't care, and suddenly heard a familiar voice read: "Yangchun white snow accompanies the king of Chu... This should be. Caviar to the general! ”
"Ah, Miss is amazing, I know that!"
"Yu'er is really knowledgeable, it seems that there is no word fan who can stump you in this audience."
"Li Yu?" Yang Yi tilted his head and looked at it, and sure enough, it was Li Yu.
I saw Li Yu dressed in a gorgeous dress and wearing long hair, talking to a man in brocade clothes on the side, and listening carefully, it was all horse words such as "thank you, awards".
Yang Yi pursed his lips, didn't want to look at his face, turned around and wanted to go to the other side.
"Brother Nine Emperors?" As soon as he turned around, he heard Li Yu shouting.
Sometimes you don't want to kill Beren, but Beren is thinking about how to kill you.
Yang Yi secretly said "bad luck", and had to twist a smile and turn around.
"Yo, isn't this the eldest lady of the Li family? What a narrow road we met! ”
Li Yu and his entourage just came up, and when they saw Yang Yi smiling and condensing at this, the brocade boy on the side said, "It's really a nine nerds, why is he here?" Thinking of Yang Yi's words again, the man shook his head and smiled: "When we meet on a narrow road, this nerd can really speak." ”
The man didn't know the grievances between Yang Yi and Li Yu, and when he saw Yang Yi smiling, he thought that these nine nerds wanted to please Li Yu but used the wrong word.
Li Yu knew the meaning of Yang Yi's words in his heart, he was really slandered by Yang Yi on the street that day, and it is not an exaggeration to describe the two with the sentence "meeting on a narrow road".
If Li Yu knew that his aunt was also placed by Yang Yi, it is estimated that he would have to greet him with "the road is narrow".
"Yes, I didn't expect to see the Nine Emperor Brothers here." Li Yu replied without changing his face.
"Be polite, Miss Li is full of radiance, I have seen it from afar!"
"Brother Nine Emperor has boasted, compared to you, the little girl is a little inferior."
Yang Yi shrugged his shoulders and looked around, crowded around, but there was no one in the five feet around him, and the dark attribute of the plague god was not for fun.
Seeing that the two seemed to be very familiar, the brocade-clothed boy on the side frowned and asked Li Yudao: "Yu'er, when did you know this fool?" ”
Without waiting for Li Yu to speak, Yang Yi asked, "Who is this brother?" ”
The man didn't reply, but asked, "You don't know me?" ”
Yang Yi smiled and shook his head gently: "This brother is a fool, you say I am a fool, how can I know you as a fool?" ”
The man's eyes froze, a little angry and a little confused, but he showed enough literacy and said, "I am your sixth brother." ”
Yang Yi suddenly felt in his heart, no wonder he looked at this person with a familiar face, it turned out to be his brother, the sixth prince.
Yang Yi remembered that his mother told him that the emperor had nine sons and one daughter, and the sixth prince should be called Yang Su, and it seemed that he was still relatively close to Li Yu.
Yang Yi's heart was spinning, but his face was silent, and he saluted: "I've seen the sixth brother!" ”
"What are you doing here alone? What about Concubine Ning? This kind of occasion is not something you can come to alone. ”
Yang Su looked Yang Yi up and down, although the two were brothers, Yang Su had already moved out of the palace to live in his mansion, and the two had not seen each other for a long time.
"Back to the sixth brother, I woke up and wanted to pee, came out to find a toilet, and before I knew it, I came here." Yang Yi stubble mixing.
Yang Su smiled helplessly, "What a fool, I'll send someone to send you back." ”
On the side, Li Yu suddenly said: "Since the Nine Emperor Brothers have come, why don't you disassemble the two pairs of lantern riddles before leaving?" ”
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, tonight's lantern riddles are all from Guozijian, the topic is transparent through ancient and modern, I don't know how many scholars and bachelors have been stumped, Li Yu invited Yang Yi, and everyone's first reaction was to ridicule Yang Yi, but Li Yu has a reputation for virtuous etiquette, and he is not a person who teases fools for no reason.
"Yu'er?" On the side, Yang Su was also a little stunned.
Yang Yi scolded secretly in his heart: "Thirty-eight." ”
Since the two of them foresaw and said hello, Li Yu didn't speak on the side, nor did he introduce Yang Su to him, and he watched the two tear up with pure heart, who knew that Yang Su disdained to deal with the fool Yang Yi, and was about to let him go, but at this time he came to stumble again.
Yang Yi touched his nose and said with a smile: "The eldest lady of the Li family is so interested, but Yang Yi doesn't know a few big words, you and I guess the lantern riddle, aren't you ignorant and fearless?" ”
"You're not ignorant." Li Yudao
"I didn't say I was ignorant..."
"Hmph, that's good, I'm an ignorant person, and I'm fearless, please teach the Nine Emperor Brothers." Li Yu felt that he had never seen such a shameless person.
Li Yu casually tore off a series of lantern riddles and asked the maid to hand them over.
Yang Yi smiled unchanged, shook his head, and said without looking at the riddle: "I can't guess, I lost this game." ”
I didn't expect Yang Yi to be such a scoundrel, and the maid looked at Li Yu a little overwhelmed with a lantern riddle.
Li Yu didn't speak either, waiting for Yang Yi's next words.
"Then it's time for me to do the next question." Yang Yidao.
"Nine Emperor Brothers, please choose a topic."
Yang Yi shook his head and said: "This riddle is so difficult to solve, I don't know the answer myself, in case Miss Li says an answer nonsense, I don't know if it's correct or not, it will be embarrassing." ”
"You come up with the question, and I'll help you find the answer." Yang Sudao on the side.
Yang Yi glanced at Yang Su and said with a smile: "Don't you dare to drive the third brother." ”
He turned around and took a pen from the lampstand and said, "I'll write a few riddles that I heard the children sing in the bazaar, and Miss Li can guess them." ”
