Chapter 23: When is the bright moon?
At the beginning of the night, Chang'an City is very lively. Because www.biquge.info of the cancellation of the curfew, and the number of Golan tiles in the Dashun Dynasty is as many as carp crossing the river, it has formed a rare spectacle for thousands of years. In Lu Chengqi's memory, the only person who had such a crazy Mid-Autumn Festival in history was the Song Dynasty. And the Dashun Dynasty is in time and space, which happens to be the era of the Song Dynasty. Is all this an accident?
In the market, whether it is a restaurant or a tea house, a green building or a street, it is crowded. Rich house, knotted table; In the restaurant, the silk fence is boiling, even if you are far away from the residents of Fang City, you can hear the sound of sheng poles in the middle of the night. Children in the alleys can play all night long.
At this time, the golden wind is cool, the jade dew is cool, the osmanthus is fragrant, and the silver toad is full of light. It is really the best scenery of the year, not only the scenery is beautiful, but also the people. In the city of Chang'an, whether rich or poor, they all enjoy the same month, ascend to the Xuan, the tortoise feast is listed, the piano is sonorous, and the wine is sung. If the family is not very wealthy, they can also go to the small platform to arrange family banquets and reunite their children to reward the festive season. Even if they are street beggars, they will be invited to drink with them. The street food is very popular, and the people who travel to the moon, although the alleys are poor, are also in the city, and the east is a little brighter, and it gradually disperses.
On the bank of the Wei River on the outskirts of the city, called the Feng River, the residents of Chang'an City will put water lanterns here on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, sprinkled with hundreds of thousands of lights, floating on the water, bright as stars.
At this moment, every household will prepare moon cakes, although they are not as particular as the imperial family, but they also have a unique flavor.
At this moment, a group of people appeared on the streets of Chang'an City, even if the streets were overcrowded, they couldn't hide the nobility. There are more than 20 people, the elderly are in their fifties and sixties, and more are in their thirties; The leader is unpredictable, but a baby-faced, but secretly majestic; Although he is young, he has the spirit of a superior.
This group of people is Lu Chengqi and the twelve ministers of the cabinet, as well as the imperial guards in the palace.
Lu Chengqi was obviously very interested, it was the first time he had seen such a lively scene in ancient times, even if this had nothing to do with his political achievements, but he was still very excited, and said: "In Chang'an City, I never thought that there could be such a lively scene!" ”
Xu Chongguang sighed: "Yes, the old man has lived in Chang'an City for a long time, and only during the Mid-Autumn Festival and the Spring Festival can he see such a lively scene." ”
Lu Chengqi looked at the cabinet ministers who followed behind, and said with emotion: "When can we do it month by month, day by day, the Great Shun Dynasty is the real foundation as stable as Mount Tai." ”
Xu Chongguang and other cabinet ministers felt a pang in their hearts, they have been in the officialdom for a long time, and they can't hear it, this is Lu Chengqi's heartfelt words. But at this moment, there are many people around him, and they don't dare to say much, and they all care about other things.
Lu Chengqi didn't want to talk about political affairs at this moment, so he asked: "Do you know what is the highest place in Chang'an City?" ”
A newly promoted cabinet minister said: "The welcome building is the tallest of all the buildings in Chang'an City, and there are high mountains in the upper forest garden. ”
Lu Chengqi said with a smile: "Shanglin Garden is a royal garden, how can you and I enter?" Let's go to the Welcome Building! ”
The cabinet minister knew that he was speechless, and couldn't help but shrink his head, but Lu Chengqi smiled. Everyone came to the welcome building, looked downstairs, but saw that the top of the building was full of people admiring the moon, but at this moment it was the unitary time, the night was up, the moon had not yet come out, and the welcome building was also overcrowded. Lu Chengqi couldn't help but sigh, even the Mid-Autumn Festival in later generations may not be like this.
The group went straight to the top of the fifth floor, but saw that in the huge rooftop, tables and chairs were arranged, and the table was full of fruit bowls and moon cakes. Thinking of the money and silver he had just paid, which was enough for ten taels of silver, Lu Chengqi couldn't help but feel a pain in his flesh. But when you think that the wool comes from the sheep after all, doesn't the tax come from here? Thinking about it like this, Lu Chengqi was relieved.
The only two remaining tables were contracted by Lu Chengqi, and each table cost five taels of silver. But it still seems that there are more monks and less porridge, and there is no place for the imperial guards, but it is just right.
Lu Chengqi and the twelve ministers sat down separately, and instructed Xiao Er to serve Huadiao wine, and chatted while tasting fresh fruits. And at this time, Lu Chengqi's insight really made the twelve cabinet ministers admire.
Lu Chengqi laughed in his heart: "I also come from the 21st century of information explosion, even if I haven't been in contact with it, I have inadvertently seen it, where is the comparison between your high-ranking officials who are not fluent in this information?" ”
But at this time, a person at the adjacent table said loudly: "This little brother, just now you said the situation in Shudi, but Xiao Sheng didn't agree with it. ”
Lu Chengqi just said that Shu is the country of abundance, the world is not chaotic Shu first chaos, the world has been peaceful Shu has not been peaceful, if there are people with bad intentions and make trouble in Shu, Shu is in danger.
Lu Chengqi looked at the person who spoke with interest, and saw that he was wearing a square scarf and hat and a blue loose shirt, and he didn't look like he had achieved fame. This person is about twenty years old, and he has a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, which seems to make Lu Chengqi feel very good.
Lu Chengqi smiled and said: "This brother, do you have a high opinion? ”
The man obviously had a Sichuan accent, Lu Chengqi had already heard it, and now he wanted to hear what he had to say. I only heard the man say: "Seniors, this little brother smiled, the little student is a scholar who went to Beijing to take the exam, and is now studying classics in the Pingshan Academy on the outskirts of the city. Xiaosheng is a Shu person, and he still has some opinions about Shu. ”
Lu Chengqi smiled: "Let's talk about it?" ”
The man was also a hero, so he immediately got up, came to Lu Chengqi's table, squeezed into his body, and said: "Although Shu is in a remote corner, it is not a place that has not been kingly. Take Xiaosheng as an example, even if he has not been named on the gold list, he also knows the orthodoxy of the world, Xiaosheng dares to say that if someone makes trouble in Shu, it will not be a climate! ”
Lu Chengqi smiled, although his views were biased, they also represented the voice of the world's scholars, which should not be underestimated. It's just that his vision is limited and he hasn't seen far enough.
Lu Chengqi said: "Brother Tai is right, but I never thought that if the government collapses and the people are poor, how can there be no people who have the world in mind? You don't see, the Qin and Han dynasties are majestic, and it is inevitable to change the dynasty, and I know how many dynasties can I postpone Dashun? ”
When Lu Chengqi said this, the scholar seemed to have an understanding, and blurted out: "What does the little brother mean is that the people are the foundation?" ”
Lu Chengqi sighed: "Water can carry a boat, it can also overturn a boat, the king is the boat, the people are the water, how many people can know this truth?" ”
The scholar immediately felt like a bosom friend, and said: "Wenzong's theory of the king's boat and the people's water is really incisive!" ”
Lu Chengqi didn't want to talk about political affairs anymore, so he changed the topic and said: "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it is not appropriate to say something that is not very happy. Wouldn't it be nice to talk about poetry and enjoy the moon together? "Just now, Lu Chengqi dared to talk about the change of dynasty, even so, it made the twelve cabinet ministers scared. A king would actually say that his country is not guaranteed, which can be regarded as a strange story through the ages.
The scholar scratched his head and said, "Xiaosheng is the best at poetry, but after listening to what the little brother said, the poetry is gone." There are only the people left in my heart, and the little brother can hurt people a lot! ”
Lu Chengqi laughed and said, "Float a cup!" The two of them took a drink from their glasses as if no one was around, and the twelve ministers also drank a glass. Lu Chengqi was "poetic", and couldn't help plagiarizing a song that has been passed down through the ages: "When is the bright moon, ask the wine to the sky." I don't know what year it is in the heavenly palace. I want to go back by the wind, but I am afraid of Qionglou Yuyu, and the high place is unbearable. Dancing to figure out the shadow, how does it seem to be in the world? Turn Zhu Pavilion, low Qihu, shine sleeplessly. There should be no hatred, what is the long time to say goodbye? People have joys and sorrows, and the moon is cloudy and sunny, and this matter is difficult to complete. I hope that people will last a long time, thousands of miles together! ”
After singing the word, he was shocked and silent. Xu Chongguang and the others never thought that the little emperor's literary attainments were so profound, that they were so frightened that they couldn't even hold the wine glass for a while. Only the scholar tasted it for a long time and sighed: "This is the swan song of the ages, and I am far from it!" The little brother is really talented, and the little student admires it! ”
Lu Chengqi was plagiarized, where could he stand up to compliments, so he had to blush, drank a glass of Huadiao wine, and then said: "False praise, false praise!" But he was melancholy in his heart, because he once again remembered his parents who were far away from time and space, and I hope that people will last a long time, but this is no longer a thousand miles together, but a thousand years, and I don't know if they will be there at that time.
Lu Chengqi was depressed for a while, and then asked with interest: "I don't know the name of Brother Taigao?" ”
The scholar said: "Xiaosheng's surname is Su Mingshi, the word Zizhan, a native of Meishan, Meizhou. ”
After hearing half of the sentence, Lu Chengqi's eyes widened, plagiarizing his work in front of the original author, and he was a strange person through the ages. Fortunately, Su Shi is still young now, and he can't make such philosophical poems, and he hasn't been caught hurting his feet.
Lu Chengqi stammered in shock: "Are you ...... Are you Su Shi? ”
