Chapter 116: Vermilion Bird Soars to Protect Chang'an

"Count you as passing" Nalan Feiya pondered the poetic conception of Dugu Xinci, which was in line with the scene.

The sixteenth night of Chang'an is like washing, this sentence describes the time and scene, and in the thousands of fireworks, it also writes the world of lights in Chang'an City in front of you, such as fireworks and fireworks.

"How did you see the young woman in the boudoir?" Nalan Feiya came to question.

"Ugh. The lady in the boudoir? "Dugu Xinci was caught off guard, a creature like a woman is really unfathomable.

"The lady in the boudoir goes out at night? A young woman in the boudoir goes out at night? Nalan Feiya touched it, "Forget it, it's still a night trip for the young woman in the boudoir." ”

Behind him, he covered his mouth with all his powers, afraid that he would laugh out loud if he was not careful.

"Teacher, is this verse too plain?" Xiao Du Fu questioned, "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. The teacher's poems last night were very beautiful and meaningful."

"This poem is meaningful, of course it is good to use gorgeous rhetoric, and it is true to be plain" Dugu Xinci thinks about it and fulfills his duty as a teacher, "Your poems must be promoted in the end, if there is well water where you can spread your verses, you are a great poet"

"Where there is well water, a certain verse is preached" Du Fu listened with his little face, very yearning.

Dugu Xinci continued to talk about his theory:

"Thou shalt be like this, and there are only a few people in the market who have read books and can read and write, and the words should not be obscure, and if thou hast a verse, if thou shalt find an old woman on the street, so that she can know thy poetry, thy poems can be passed on."

Du Fu fell into deep thought, entangled in the elegance and plainness of the words, and was very troubled.

"What you say is easy, poetry wants to be novel, and the choice of words should naturally be exquisite," Nalan Feiya has another opinion.

"Then so-and-so will give you an example, for example, this Shangyuan Festival, there have always been a lot of poems, nothing more than star bridge, galaxy, fish dragon, flowers and trees and other words to describe its scene."

"Su Xianggong's fire tree and silver flowers, Xingqiao iron lock open, the most famous, at the same time, there is also Cui Li's jade leakage copper kettle and do not urge, the iron lock gold lock is open all night; In the early years, there were also Lu Zhao's suspicious stars falling, and the building was like the moon hanging. Don't have a daughter laughing, come to the front of the nine branches. ”

Dugu Xinci continued to give an example, "It is the ** heaven of the previous dynasty, and the Brahma sound comes from the sky; The lamps and trees shine with thousands of lights, and the flowers and flames bloom. It is also vivid, and most of the words used are not obscure. ”

"It is still necessary to add the teacher's east wind to bloom thousands of trees at night," Du Fu hurriedly held a handful of masters.

"Tonight on the third floor, Teacher Ru Zhi has another sentence: The moonlight lamp mountain is full of imperial capital, and the incense car treasure covers the pass." Nalan Feiya added.

"Do you also have to add: On the night of January this year, the flower market is lit up like day. The willow tops on the moon, people about after dusk" Dugu Xinci chuckled. This verse was written while he was waiting for Naranfeiya.

Nalan Feiya smiled slightly, and the ten thousand styles in the moonlit night made Dugu's heart flutter.

"I understand, Teacher Xie taught" Du Fu previously wrote poems to describe the imperial banquet, using the peak of the purple camel out of the emerald cauldron, and the plate of the water spirit is lined with plain scales, which is extremely luxurious, but with the Yellow Gate Flying Shackle, I don't know how to write the word Suckle.

"You are so talented, and you will have another masterpiece of the Yuan Festival?" Nalan Feiya teased.

"That's not just coming with your mouth open: the Sanwu Festival, the spring of Shangyuan. The lanterns hang in the downtown and sing the Taiping song. "Dugu Xinci is not ambiguous at all.

"The master is really talented, the words are simple, but the meaning is profound."

"You are lazy, this sentence is a poem in Journey to the West" Nazhi Nalan Feiya mercilessly exposed her laziness.

"You know this?" Dugu is depressed.

"Teacher, I also know that this sentence comes from the ninety-first round, Jinping Mansion Yuan Night Watching the Lantern Xuanying Cave Tang Seng Confession" Du Fu also jumped forward, and also chanted "Three or five good night festivals, Shangyuan spring color and." The lanterns hang in the downtown and sing the Taiping song. I also saw that the lights of the six streets and three cities were on, and the sky was rising. That moon is like Feng Yi pushing on a rotten silver plate, and this lamp is like a fairy weaving into a brocade. The lamp reflects the moon and doubles the brilliance; The moon light is very brilliant. You can't see the iron-locked star bridge, and you can't see the lights and fireworks. Snowflake lanterns, plum blossom lanterns, spring ice shearing; Embroidered screen lamp, picture screen lamp, colorful accumulation. Walnut lamps, lotus lamps, and lantern towers are hung high; Green lion lamp, white elephant lamp, lamp stand high canopy. shrimp lamps, turtle lamps, high alleys in front of the shed; Sheep lamp, rabbit lamp, spirit under the eaves. Eagle lamp, phoenix lamp, connected and combined; Tiger lanterns, horse lanterns, walk together. Crane lantern, white deer lantern, birthday star sitting; Goldfish lamp, long whale lamp, too white and high. Aoshan lantern, a gathering of immortals; Marquee, generals clash. Thousands of lights and towers, more than ten miles of clouds and smoke in the world. In the wall compartment, Suo Langlang jade fly in; This wall compartment has been rolled by the wheel. Look at the red-makeup upstairs, leaning on the railing, through the curtain, side by side, holding hands, both beautiful women are greedy for joy; By the green water bridge, noisy, clustered, drunk, laughing, playing with tourists. The city is full of flute and drums, and the sheng songs are continuous throughout the night. ”

"There is a vain, a certain heart is enough" Dugu Xinci made a gesture of comfort to hide the embarrassment.

"The Journey to the West is very well written, and your poem can also be passed on" Nalan Feiya smiled and comforted.

"Little Du Fu, you slapped the master in the face, be careful that the master puts on your little shoes" Quan Yiquan and the big bear dog caught up with Du Fu in front, and deliberately made a sound for the fallen Dugu Xinci to hear.

"The teacher won't be so careful," Xiao Du Fu had never heard of the allusion that the demon wolf Tianxing would take revenge overnight.

Unconsciously, half an hour passed, Chunming Gate next to the city wall to the south of the four squares is the Daozheng Fang, Changle Fang, Jinggong Fang and Qinglong Temple where the Xinchang Fang, the city wall began to decrease from the Daozheng Fang, Jinggong Fang is basically left with Dugu Xinci and his party and the Jin Wuwei who patrols the night.

When I arrived at Xinchangfang, the flow of people began to increase again, and Yanxingmen arrived.

There are three city gates in the east of Chang'an City, the northernmost part of Tonghua Gate, the middle of Chunming Gate, and the south end is Yanxing Gate.

"When I first entered Chang'an, I entered the city from this gate," Dugu Xinci looked at Yanxing Gate with some kindness.

"History: The white-clothed scholar of the Far East Hou entered the city, and he had to explore the flowers, and the Yanxing Gate contributed a lot" Nalan Feiya looked at the city gate, this Yanxing Gate is also the narrowest of the three gates in the east, so she smiled and teased.

"Farther south, it's desolate? Are you still going south? Dugu ignored it, but asked.

"Little Du Fu, are you tired?" Nalan Feiya asked Du Fu, among the people, the big bear and the dog are all warriors, and the little wolf magician is full of power and physical strength, and he is lonely and kind... It can be ignored, and he moves forward, and he naturally follows.

"Don't be tired, a certain is also a samurai," Du Fu proudly announced.

"Then wait until the front goes down the city wall, and then rest on the Leyou Plain," Nalan Feiya then made a decision.

Yanxingmen used to be the Shengdaofang, and the Shengdaofang is now famous in Chang'an.

Leyou was originally a loess plateau, stretching to both sides. The length of the plateau is about eight miles, the width is about more than 200 steps, and it is more than three zhang higher than the flat ground on both sides.

The southern end is to Qujiang, the northern section is to Xinchangfang, and Qinglong Temple is also on the northern slope of Leyouyuan.

Leyouyuan and Longyuan in the north of Chang'an are called the two major Gaogang Shengdi, but the Longyuan Daming Palace and the Forbidden Garden, hidden in the deep palace, Leyouyuan is open to the public like Qujiang.

As early as 1,000 years ago, the area around Leyouyuan was famous for its beautiful scenery. In the pre-Qin period, Leyou was a place for the royal family and nobles to go hunting. In the Qin Dynasty, it became a royal garden, called "Yichun Garden". In the Han Dynasty, it was called "Yichun Xia Yuan" and was included in the scope of Shanglin Garden. Leyou was originally part of the Shanglin Garden in the Han Dynasty. In the Han Dynasty, Shanglinyuan reached Zhongnan Mountain in the south, Weihe River in the north, Lantian County in the east, and Zhouzhi and Hu County in the west. Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty was a god in the third year, in the southeast of Chang'an City of the Han Dynasty, he first opened up the Leyou Garden, and then built a Leyou Temple, since then, this uplifted soil has been named after the Leyou Yuan.

The terrain of Leyouyuan is towering, ascending the original and overlooking the distance, the four views are spacious, and the capital is overlooked. Princess Taiping once built pavilions and pavilions here for herself to enjoy the original fun. After the death of Princess Taiping, the sage gave Princess Taiping's private garden on the original paradise to his brothers, the four kings of Ning, Shen, Qi and Xue, and the four kings built a lot of new places to play here; Every March and September, the ladies' games are pulled out and climbed, the curtain is cloudy, and the cars and horses are stuffed.

Everyone followed Nalan Feiya down the city wall, crossed the Shengdao Fang, went straight into the Shengping Fang, the Shengping Fang is the highest place in the original Leyouyuan, along a path in the southwest of the Fang, there is a courtyard at the top of the slope, Nalan Feiya pushed the door in, and there were also two waiters with lanterns to welcome.

Nalan Feiya instructed the two waiters to rest on their own, and led everyone through the two courtyards, which is also the westernmost point of Leyouyuan, the west slope of Leyouyuan looked dark, and several courtyards on the original were also tall and various palace lights, and the pines and cypresses of the green forest on the west slope could be faintly seen.

Nalan Feiya led everyone up to a two-story small building, and the screens were removed from the second floor of the small building, which was very open.

"This is Xiaoya's property" Dugu Xinci was very excited, this is the first time to return to the house of the Empress Liuqiu, Nalan Feiya's boudoir?

"Yes, this is the Liuqiu industry," Nalan Feiya said, lighting a few palace lamps in the building, but everyone was attracted by the scenery from afar, and they all went to the west railing to watch the view.

Nalan Feiya looked at Dugu Xinci and said, "Let's take a look at the panorama of Chang'an first"

This is the highest place in Chang'an, the moon is in the sky, the sixteen nights of Chang'an are like washing, and the field of vision is broad, the whole Chang'an can be seen at a glance.

It's a sight as spectacular as the Milky Way in the sky.

The brightest place is Suzaku Street, unlike other places where there are stars, there is a direct road of light, has the Suzaku Gate as the center, there is now bright like a cluster of light, blazing like a golden crow, extending to the south to the Mingde Gate.

The entire palace city and the imperial city are the lowest places in Chang'an, and at this moment they are shrouded in light, and the light is spreading on both sides.

The four squares of Yongxing Chongren Anxing Shengye in the east of the imperial city, and the four squares of Jincheng Liquan in the west are all the places where the princes and princes and the wealthy merchants of the high gate gather, and the lanterns are hung high at night, and the fire is bright.

Fortunately in the east, there is Xingqing Palace next to Shengye Fang, which has shone like a pearl at this moment.

Then the light took Suzaku Street as the axis, and the more it went to the edge of the city, the more dim it became, until the stars were sparse and the moon was bright, and it was even as dark as lacquer as Shengpingfang.

"Where's a rose tree, which blooms every autumn and bears fruit in winter," Naranfiya said, pointing to the woods below.

"This is really a fairyland, really worthy of the style of the empress" Dugu Xinxin praised without hesitation.

"It's not that good, it's remote here, and it's not convenient to eat," Empress Nalan chuckled.

"Maybe you come often?" Dugu Xinci looked at Nalan Feiya and asked.

"Well, you can come if you want," Nalan Feiya sighed after thinking about it.

"Yes, Xiaoya is so good, come and come, wait to see the Vermilion Bird Array in Chang'an" Dugu said with mercy.

"Suzaku Array?" Nalan Feiya wondered.

"Isn't it said that Chang'an City is guarded by Vermilion Birds, it is a legend that Suzaku guards it, but when Yuwenkai built Chang'an City, there was indeed a formation," Dugu Xinci said.

"Does it really look like Suzaku?" On the side, Quan Yiquan sighed, Suzaku Street is the end, the imperial city is the body, and the Daming Palace is the head.

"Ten miles of array, no wonder there are sayings: Vermilion Bird Tengyun protects Chang'an," Dugu sighed.

"But the Vermilion Bird is the guardian of the south among the four statues, and a certain person has heard of the miracle of the Vermilion Bird in South Vietnam, and the Vermilion Bird is also a southern star?" Nalan Feiya wondered.

The seven southern houses of the twenty-eight houses (well, gui, willow, star, zhang, wing, and zhen), its image bird, located in the south, belongs to the fire, the color is red, and it is generally called the vermilion bird, also known as the "vermilion bird".

Vermilion Bird and Qinglong, White Tiger, Xuanwu, and are called the Four Spirits of Heaven, and Yellow Dragon, Green Dragon, White Tiger, and Xuanwu are collectively known as the Five Beasts of Heaven. Whatever the legend, Suzaku has always been believed to be located in the south.

"Yes, Chang'an is the center of the sky, it should be the territory of Huanglong? It's about Huanglong going to the South China Sea to drink water, and let Suzaku take over, right? Dugu Xinci's explanation made everyone laugh.

"No, it should be the Fire Phoenix Array, and this replacement should be the Phoenix, which is also the reason why the Ru clan has stayed in Chang'an for a long time, right?" Dugu Xinci continued to talk nonsense.

"A certain family has lived in Chang'an since the last two generations, but a certain family has never heard of words like the Fire Phoenix Great Array," Nalan Feiya retorted seriously.

"It is rumored that there are five spirit beasts in the town of five directions, and there are also five fierce beasts that are ravaging the five directions, I don't know which five fierce beasts?" Du Fu asked.

The five spirit beasts are known to the world:

Green Dragon Palm Wood. Guarding the East. Representative: Might

The white tiger is in the palm of gold, guarding the West. Representative: Killing

Suzaku holds the fire and guards the south. Representative: Rebirth

Xuanwu holds the water and guards the north. Representative: Changsheng

The Yellow Dragon is in charge of the soil, guarding the central government, and represents: imperial power

"If there is a fierce spirit, there is a good and there is evil, but there is no difference between good and evil and evil spirits, they are just the names of the winners" Dugu Xin made his position clear.

"There is no historical record of the statement that the five spirit beasts suppressed the five fierce beasts, the statement of the Huashi disciples, uh, is actually a certain nonsense, you can listen to the story, don't spread it indiscriminately, laugh and be generous" Dugu Xinci said with a smile.

"These five beasts are called Qiqi, gluttony, Hanqi, Kunpeng, and Chaos" Dugu Xinci continued, "Don't say it, the battle between Xuanwu and Kunpeng in the north is a thing, well, Kunpeng Tieyu, the murals of Xuanwu vs. Kunpeng, there are many places in the Far East and the Northern Underworld, and there is really something about it."

"Xuanwu vs. Kunpeng?" Du Fu said excitedly, "But there is a fish in the north of the underworld, and its name is Kun." The Kun is so big that I don't know how many thousands of miles it is; Turned into a bird, its name is Peng. Peng's back, I don't know how many thousands of miles it is. Flying in anger, its wings are like clouds hanging from the sky. ”

"Nine times out of ten, yes" took over the little junior brother "You went to the Far East, and took you to see the murals and the Northern Stygian Snow Plain of the Xuanwu War against Kunpeng"

"梼杌? There is a saying in the Divine Sutra: its shape is like a tiger and dog hair, two feet long, human face and tiger feet, pig mouth teeth, tail length one zhang eight feet, stirring up the wilderness, the name of the Han Zhu, "Nalan Feiya is also reading more than 10,000 volumes" Jiangnan also has rumors of this beast, and there are Yi people in Fujian for it as a totem"

"The left biography is loaded: If you are not talented, you can't teach a lesson, you don't know what to say, you are stubborn if you tell it, you are arrogant and arrogant, and you are always chaotic. The people of the world are called 梼杌. Dugu smiled again

"He, like Shaohaozi Qiqi, was defeated and became a fierce beast"
