0094 Sky Lantern

On the third floor of Qifeng Pavilion, all the windows were opened, and all the gentlemen stood in front of the windows, wanting to see what Guo Jia said about the gift?

Everyone was very curious, and the common people gave gifts, the more common ones were gold and silver jewelry, the more elegant warriors usually chose horses or swords, and the literati liked to give guqin and rare classics. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

But Guo Jia said that the gift he gave was in the sky, which was really weird.

The night before 1800 was different from now, there were only sporadic fires in the whole city of Luoyang, and the light was very dim because it was burned by kerosene or candles.

It just so happened that tonight was just after the snowstorm, the moon was still lazy, the stars were on holiday, and the whole sky was pitch black, and nothing could be seen.

What kind of gifts will there be in this case? Even if there is, you can't see it, right?

Cao Cao, Xun You and others were also curious, and wanted to ask Guo Jia, but found that there was Zhang Ning, a little witch, standing next to him, and no one dared to approach within five steps except Xun Yu, and everyone was trembling, and everyone dispelled this idea.

Ask Xun Yu? But Xun Yu's face was also full of expectation at the moment, and it was obvious that he didn't know what it was.

"Guo Fengxiao, what do you want to send?"

They didn't dare to ask, but there was one person who couldn't help it, Gongsun Zhan, the border people were stubborn, and they also didn't know how to beat around the bush.

"Surprise, there's no point in saying it."

Guo Jia smiled mysteriously, but did not answer the question.

"You ......"

Gongsun Chan was in a hurry, Guo Jia originally wanted to catch Xun Yu's appetite, but he didn't expect to catch the fish of Gongsun Chan, the emperor was really not in a hurry, and the eunuch was in a hurry.

But Gongsun Zhan just wanted to continue to ask, but was interrupted by Zhang Yu.

"Look, there's a fire in the north."

"Firelight, isn't it on fire?" Gongsun Chan looked anxious.

"It's on fire, it shouldn't be, there's fire but no smoke, it's not like it's on fire." Gu Yong observed more carefully.

"It's just that a rough man, his eyes are not good, it's really stupid." Zhang Yu rarely caught the opportunity to ridicule Gongsun Zhan, and naturally he would not forget to take revenge.

One has a fiery temper, the other also holds a grudge, and he was about to pinch it, but he heard a voice exclaim.

"Then, that seems to be the location of Xunfu."

"Yes, that's Xunfu. Wenruo, Gongda, what's going on? ”

"I don't know."

Xun Yu and Xun You were also puzzled, so they looked at Guo Jia, but found that he was pretending to sleep, but there was a smile hidden in the corner of his eye, and it seemed that he couldn't say it, so he had to continue to wait and see what was going on.

"Lights, lights, so many lights!"

It seems to have formed a word, which is the word "Xun"! ”

In the north, as the firelight continued to rise, the gentlemen gradually discovered that these lights were actually emitted by lamps.

Each of these lamps is half a meter square, red throughout, looking like a lantern, and the interior glows brightly, which is especially noticeable in the dark night.

There were no stars or moon tonight, but this lamp became the stars in the sky, more beautiful and brighter than ordinary stars.

What's even more peculiar is that these lamps seem to be fixed to form the character "Xun" of Xun Yu.

What surprised them the most was that these lamps were not placed indoors, but flew in the sky.

Flying in the sky is a mysterious thing that anyone will yearn for.

If modern people see this scene, they will never be surprised, this is a Kong Ming lantern, everyone has basically seen it, and even set it off with their own hands.

Kong Ming lantern, commonly known as wishing lantern, also known as prayer lantern. It is an ancient handicraft of the Han nationality, which was mostly used for military purposes in ancient times. Modern people put Kong Ming lanterns mostly for blessings. Men, women and children write their blessings by hand, symbolizing a successful harvest and happiness every year. It is generally cast on major festivals such as the Lantern Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The production method of Kong Ming lantern is also very simple, you only need to tie bamboo strips into a square frame, paste paper, make a headlight, place burning pine resin on the chassis, and the lamp will fly into the sky by hot air.

But for the ancients who had never seen the Kong Ming lantern, it was definitely a spectacle.

"How is this possible? How can the lights fly into the sky? ”

"Where is the light, it's obviously a large lantern."

"It doesn't matter what it is, but it's ...... to fly into the sky What a miracle! ”

"Yes, Fengxiao, what means did you use? Teach us too. ”

The gentlemen who had been waiting for it all became excited at once, the third floor of Qifeng Pavilion was noisy, and the third sister and Lai Ying'er were equally surprised, staring at Kong Ming Lantern with beautiful eyes and couldn't move away in the slightest.

At this time, many people and families in Luoyang City also discovered the scene in the sky, and walked into the courtyard and stepped out of their homes to watch the rising Kong Ming lantern. Even in the palace, Emperor Han Ling, who was playing with his concubine, discovered this scene and was amazed.

Even though the temperature is extremely low at night after the snow in the north, people blush and stiffen from the cold, but it still can't stop them from gathering to watch this wonderful view.

Even if you are in Luoyang, you are used to seeing major events in the world and seeing many court officials, but the scene in front of you is definitely enough for all the people of Luoyang to remember for a lifetime.

"Look, to the south, there's also a sky lantern to the south."

"That is the Tang family, the mansion of Lord Tang Heng."

"Yes, you see, the south is also the same word, it is the word "Tang"! ”

Soon, sharp-eyed people found that many of the same lights also flew out of the north of Luoyang.

Because this kind of lamp can fly into the sky, many people even call it a sky lantern, and this name has been passed on.

In this life, Kong Ming lanterns are called sky lanterns.

The word "Xun" rises from the Xunjia in the north, and the word "Tang" rises from the Tang family in the south, echoing each other from afar, and the two words seem to be out of the control of the airflow, and they actually fly towards the center of Luoyang at the same time.

Not surprisingly, these two words will meet in the middle of Luoyang City.

"The Xun family and the Tang family, what's going on?"

Many people in Luoyang were puzzled and asked the people next to them for questions.

"Hey...... You don't know this, it is said that Xun Yu of Xunfu and Miss Tang Xin of Tang Mansion are going to get married, and it is His Majesty who personally gave the marriage. ”

Immediately, well-informed people came forward, and it is a great hobby to show off what others don't know.

"Ahh I see, but what's going on with this sky lantern? ”

The former continued to ask.

"This ...... This ......"

Of course, the latter couldn't answer, and this was the first time they had seen this lantern.

"So you don't know, huh!"

The former spoke with contempt, and was obviously unhappy with the latter's show-off.

"Who...... Who says I don't know? ”

The latter is in a hurry, and this face cannot be lost.

"Oh, you know? Then you say. ”

The former's agitation method is not very clever, but the latter is to eat this trick.

"This ...... This must be because Lord Xun Wang Zuozhicai, Miss Tang Xin are all beautiful, and even His Majesty personally gave marriage, so God also felt that they were born a pair, so they sent a vision. Yes, that's it! ”

"You...... Are you saying that this lantern is a vision from heaven? Heaven don't blame me, don't blame me, I don't have the slightest disrespect. ”

The former panicked, and he doubted these words, didn't he doubt God?

If it were a modern person, it would be natural to turn up its nose at these words, but 1800 years ago, people did not have the slightest doubt.

For things they can't explain, ghosts are usually involved.

The people around him confessed their sins to the heavens and revered the sky lanterns even more, and the well-informed latter showed a sly smile.

It turned out that this person was none other than the eldest of the Li family.
