With the previous dialogue, Cheng Chumo rarely chatted with Ye Wen, for fear that Ye Wen's words would become the target of everyone. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

There was nothing to say all the way, the sky gradually got dark, and there were more and more people on the street, and the people on the street began to sing and dance, play acrobatics, and dance gods.

came to the imperial city, and after the guards verified everyone's identities, they let Ye Wen and them go.

Ye Wen and the others then rode towards the palace, out of the gate of the imperial city, the left side was brightly lit and full of people, so it was not lively, before Ye Wen saw a red light in the sky from a distance.

Ye Wen couldn't help but look to the left curiously, and when he looked over the long street, Ye Wen saw Anfumen, and the city gate of Anfumen was wide open.

Through the Anfu Gate, there is a huge lantern wheel outside the Anfu Gate, as high as 20 zhang, which is wrapped with colorful silk brocade, decorated with gold and silver, and the lantern wheel hangs 50,000 lanterns, just like the colorful clouds and the flowers and trees of the sunshine.

Moreover, there are thousands of palace maids wearing splendid Luo Qihua costumes, full of pearls and emeralds, and more than 1,000 women from ordinary families in Chang'an City, all gathered here to take turns singing and dancing day and night, as if they would not stop for three days and three nights.

Not far away, there is also a "lamp tower", the whole body is made of silk fabric, up to 150 feet, up to 20 shelves wide, the lamp tower hangs pearl jade, gold and silver spikes, the breeze blows, the gold and jade clangling. The dragon and phoenix, tiger and leopard are painted on the lamp, which is in the form of leaping and lifelike. There is another "Hundred Branches of Lamp Tree", which is 80 feet high, and the huge tree-shaped lantern holder itself is also placed on the high hill, and after it is lit, it can be seen from a distance within a hundred miles, and it is bright and dazzling.

There are hundreds of music and dance operas under these giant lantern wheels, light towers, and lantern trees, and thousands of court artists and folk singing and dancing practitioners and enthusiasts sing and dance in the brilliant daylight download. There is the one who loves face, and the bankrupt family will also be in the limelight on this night, a pair of flower crowns and a xia curtain are worth 10,000 yuan, and the decoration of the beauties needs at least 300,000 yuan, and its luxury and richness can be imagined.

In addition to the women's singing and dancing, bands from all over the neighborhood also come to join in the fun and compete in the competition. The musicians sit on the ox carts, playing, singing, and swaggering through the market, all dressed in splendid costumes, and even the oxen pulling the cart are dressed in tiger skins, or decorated with rhinoceros and elephants. In addition, there are all kinds of acrobatic performers, running dry boats, walking ropes, swallowing steel swords, spitting lotus flowers, wrestling sumo wrestling, dancing horses and cockfights, and tug-of-war and drilling fire rings next to the lanterns.

In short, there were all kinds of popular entertainment on the market at that time, and no one would be left behind. Therefore, the people who come out to play these nights, in addition to looking at the lights, are more to watch people, especially the young and beautiful girls in the singing and dancing acrobatic team, which will attract the attention of the floating prodigals. The so-called "more roaming under the moon, watching people in front of the lamp." The joy is endless, singing and dancing until tomorrow morning. ”

Ye Wen retracted his gaze, and then walked towards the palace, and was stopped by the guards again, Ye Wen and they revealed their identities again, and after some investigation, they were put in, and someone led the way.

Ye Wen and the others followed into the palace, and they also walked fast along the way, the incense car treasure passed by Ye Wen in a hurry, the woman on the incense car lifted the curtain and looked at Ye Wen's bicycle curiously, Ye Wen and they finally arrived at a palace.

When he came to the main hall, he didn't see Li Er, but saw the crown prince Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian saw Cheng Chu Mo Yewen and them, and stepped forward to greet them.

"Meet His Royal Highness the Prince." Li Chengqian and Cheng Chumo finished their polite interactions, and when they saw Ye Wen beside Cheng Chumo, Ye Wen saw that Li Chengqian noticed him, so he had to step forward and say.

"This is Ye Yilang! When the yen Zhengda Dynasty meeting in a hurry, we were able to officially meet today. Li Chengqian said politely to Ye Wen.

"Exactly down there." Ye Wen said.

"Ye Lang's fame is thunderous now! Horseshoe, punctuation, playing cards, stir-frying, etc., are all Ye Lang's handwriting. Li Chengqian is only 16 years old this year, he can be described as high-spirited, heroic, and full of confidence when he speaks, and he has no connection with the miserable fate of later generations.

"Where, where, it's just a family thing, it's not on my head." Ye Wen said humbly, for Li Chengqian, Ye Wen didn't have anything to do with him, so Ye Wen wouldn't help him anything, let alone get too involved with him, and his leisurely life was very good.

After Li Chengqian was polite to Ye Wen for a while, he went politely to others, and Ye Wen finally took a leisurely time.

Ye Wen then followed Cheng Chumo and them to one of the empty tables, on which there were some dried fruit snacks, as well as mutton slices and sashimi, and the Japanese love for sashimi was actually passed down from the Tang Dynasty.

The people of the Tang Dynasty loved to eat raw fish, they called it fish fish, regardless of sea fish, river fish, sea bass, crucian carp, all cut into thin slices, dipped in garlic, tempeh and so on to eat raw. There are a large number of records in the history books about the masters of cutting, and the good knife skills of cutting have reached the state of supernatural beauty, and the fish fillets cut out are as thin as silk, so light that they can fly with a blow. There are also cooking manuals such as "Chopping Books" on the market, which teach you various knife techniques such as "Xiao Huang Bai", "Big Huang Bai", and "Mai Pear Blossom".

However, the Tang Dynasty forbade eating fish with the surname of the country, that is, carp, on the grounds that "carp is Li Ye", that is, the country belongs to the Li family, so carp is also taboo, and if you dare to buy carp, you will be subjected to 60 big boards according to the rules. However, despite the imperial court's repeated orders to "prohibit the world from harvesting carp", the Tang Dynasty people's enthusiasm for carp was still difficult to stop, but there were no carp fillets in this court.

People in the Tang Dynasty couldn't eat vegetables without garlic, they had to mix garlic when they ate fish, and they also had garlic to eat meat. They process garlic into garlic or garlic sauce, dip it when eating meat, and there is a saying in the whole Tang Dynasty poem that "steamed pork with garlic sauce, and roasted duck with pepper and salt". They also like to season with oranges and shredded oranges, and they put a lot of orange sauce when they eat fish.

And there are a few plates of stir-fried vegetables on the table, and there is naturally wine when there is food, and of course it is still turbid wine. The aroma of the stir-fry made Ye Wen, who had not yet eaten dinner, feel the screaming of his stomach.

Not only was Ye Wen hungry, but Cheng Chumo's stomach also rumbled early. Other people who came early had already started eating, and Cheng Chumo and they began to eat with chopsticks just a few polite words.

After Ye Wen and the others were half-full, when their hunger was not so hot, they naturally would not be bored anymore, and the disciples of the family began to find topics to chat.

One of the well-informed disciples of the family said, "I heard that Jieli Khan died today. ”

"Well, I heard the news when I came." Another family disciple said.

After listening to Ye Wen on the side, he checked the information, Jieli Khan, ****** Khan, died in Chang'an in 634, returned to the king of righteousness, said famine, and was cremated according to Turkic customs.

For a while, the disciples of the family sighed that a generation of heroes died like this, and then changed the topic, Ye Wen had no impression of Jieli and Ye Wen, and looked at the information He invaded the Tang border lands, killed and plundered the people, and robbed property. So the impression of him is not very good.
