?? With a gloomy face, the world connected the communication.

The next moment, Ren Tian's apologetic voice came over.

"Brother, I'm really embarrassed, I don't know what's going on with that southern country, it's allied with me again."

The world clenched his fists: "Brother, it's okay, it's not just a small neutral country, what is it, in the future, you and I brothers will cooperate, there is nothing in the world, right?" ”

Ren Tian's voice was a little delighted; "Oh, brother is right, it seems that the brother is really generous, in fact, I really felt very guilty, this ally is going to give it to you, after all, you also know, I don't know much about games, I only know farming, since my brothers don't want it, then forget it."

The hand in the world is really bruised, if he can, he really wants to stab Ren Tian to death with a knife.

It's so shameless, so shameless, are you embarrassed to say that you can only farm?

An ugly smile appeared on his face: "Brother, if you want to, then you should pay me back." ”

Ren Tian was puzzled for a while: "Brother, what did you just say, my communication here is a little bad, and I can't hear it clearly." ”

World-Impressive: "......"

He had never seen such a shameless person in his life.

"It's nothing, brothers work together happily."

"Well, nice to work with."

Did you hear this sentence again?

When the communication hung up, a smile appeared on the corner of Ren Tian's mouth.

Hehe, look at who plays whom, you want to play with me in applause, but you don't know that you are just a little ant in my eyes.

Ren Tian walked in the palace with his hands on his back, only feeling high-spirited.

Become an ally with the South, and it will only be a matter of time before the South is annexed, then the power of the new country will be able to expand to the Plains County, so that there will be a nail, and it will be much easier to trade with the rest of the Plains County in the future.

He didn't have any intention of going to the plains to fight, but he had a strong desire to make war money.

It is expected that within ten days, the annexation of the southern kingdom will be completed, and the southern kingdom will be included in the territory of the new kingdom without bloodshed.

After a while, he received a message from Wang Xuan's side, in addition, the treasures that had been looted in Pingyuan County recently were also sent to the Qinglong Pass, and Ren Tian's treasury funds were increased by 50 gold.

Today's mint has been built and expanded, has been put into use, began to regularly produce minted copper coins, a month down, there is an income of 80 gold, so the current monthly tax income, has come to 197 gold, and the expenditure, is only about 82 gold, which means that the income of 100 gold can be increased every month, and the new country can be regarded as getting rid of the hat of a poor country.

Ren Tian, who was in a good mood, asked, "Little Dengzi, what are the fun things lately?" ”

"Your Majesty, you forgot, today is the Midyear Festival, tonight is the Midyear Festival, why don't you go shopping?"

Ren Tian patted his head happily: "I almost forgot, let's go, go shopping, by the way, I will go to the harem first, this kind of grand event, I can't snub my concubine." ”

The mid-year festival is also a good opportunity to increase favorability, and it is also interesting to have a private visit to the micro-service.

At the same time, at the gate of the northern city of Xinguo.

A man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes was already walking under the city gate, and when he looked up, he saw the word "Nanxian" written on the city.

On the side, there were many people coming in and out, and the guards were there to maintain order.

"Hurry up, line up if you want to come in, don't stand in the way of being here and affect others."

One of the guards scolded.

The next moment, the guard only saw the man's gaze, and the sharpness contained in a pair of eyes made him seem to feel a little painful, and even dared not look at the other party.

The man withdrew his gaze and walked towards Nanxian.

"This is it."

Beside the man, followed by a guard-like figure, he asked in a low voice, "General, why do you have to come here?" ”

The man shook his head: "I don't know, in the dark, it seems that there is a providence for me to come here." ”

The guard was silent for a while: "Then let's go find an inn to rest first." ”

"Hmm."

The two came to the inn, only to see that there were many people sitting in the inn, listening to a storyteller in front of them.

"That night, Commander Tian used a trick to face the camp of tens of thousands of enemy troops, tied those cattle with eyes, put on painted coats, tied sharp knives to the horns, and filled the tail and the ox with reeds, and then ignited the tail of the cow, guess what?"

Those listeners listened attentively, and the storyteller was shocked again: "The ox became a fire ox, rushing towards the camp like crazy, only to see ah, the sea of fire was monstrous, screaming, and the soldiers of my new country, like a god soldier from heaven, directly defeated the other party, this is also a crucial battle since the founding of my new country, as the so-called 'new son of heaven ascended the throne and served diligently, and Tian led the fire ox to break the enemy'." ”

"Good!"

The people around were all shouting loudly.

The man was looking sideways at the storyteller, but the shopkeeper in front of him said with a smile: "Guest officer, this kind of story can only coax people like you who have just come to Nanxian, a story, I have told it hundreds of times, and I can't get tired of it, and it's not interesting." ”

"What's interesting about that?"

The shopkeeper smiled: "Naturally it's the Midyear Festival tonight, this is the first time my new country has held the Midyear Festival, tonight can be lively, it is said that the government has prepared for a full day for this time, and invited many talented people to write lantern riddles, and there is a reward for guessing it." Tonight, if you have nothing to do, you can come out and walk around to ensure that you get the best value for your money, and again, if any girl takes a fancy to you, your good luck will come. ”

The shopkeeper laughed, with a meaning that all men understand.

The guard next to the man had a little anger on his face, but the man smiled and said, "Why does the girl take a fancy to me, is it my good luck?" ”

The shopkeeper smiled: "So you are a foreigner, who doesn't know this neighborhood, our new country is the best, the country is stable, and the people live a rich life, if it is like the rest of the wars and displacement, where can the Zhongyuan Festival be held?" Guest, don't you say? If you are favored by the girl, you can also settle in the new country. ”

"That's just as well."

"By the way, guest officer, fill in your name."

The man took the pen and wrote down his name, surnamed Bai.

Time, unconsciously came to the evening, Nanxian is already full of lanterns, all kinds of lanterns are hung in front of the door, the edges of the buildings on both sides of the street, are full of lanterns, especially in the middle of the rare square in Nanxian County, it is full of people, and the moon cake stalls have been spread out.

It's just that these mooncakes are not sold, but provided for free, and the laughing children hold their mother's hand, take the mooncakes, and in a blink of an eye, they are attracted by the sky lantern not far away.

A certain lady also slipped out quietly with a maid, watching the people coming and going on the street, she really only felt that it was so lively, and she was dazzled by all kinds of scenes.

In the river, there are already a lot of river lanterns, there are boxy river lanterns, which are full of poems, and there are candles burning in them, and there are round river lanterns, colorful river lanterns, floating down the river.

In addition, street clothes are burned in many places in Nanxian County, which is also the custom of the Midyear Festival, burning street clothes.

In front of a large tree, it is covered with lanterns and various small sachets of prayer.

"This situation and this scene are really beautiful."

Ren Tian shook his head and looked at the big tree in front of him, followed by the little eunuch and Ban Jieyu, hearing Ren Tian's statement, Ban Jieyu couldn't help but hide her mouth and smile.

A few sons and brothers next to him also laughed when they heard Ren Tian's statement.

"This brother, how can this situation be described as beautiful?"

Ren Tian smiled: "Then what should I use?" ”

"It should be used 'thousands of lights, prosperous and lively'."

The boy shook his head, Ren Tian also laughed, and Ban Jieyu next to him laughed.

When a son-in-law saw Ban Jieyu, his eyes lit up, and he immediately leaned up: "Dare to ask this young lady's name?" ”

Ban Jieyu's face immediately turned cold: "I'm already a married man, didn't the son see my bun?" ”

In ancient times, when a woman got married, she would put her hair in a coil.

The boy was disappointed.

Ren Tian only thought it was interesting: "Let's go, let's go and take a look elsewhere." ”

At the same time, the middle-aged man who had already settled in Nanxian County also walked out with a smile, followed by the servant Ma Huang.

"Master, it's so lively."

"Yes, I feel like I haven't seen such a lively scene for a long time, the Mid-Autumn Festival, it's really good."

"Master, there are mooncakes to eat."

The middle-aged man smiled, picked up a moon cake and bit a piece, and at the same time saw that there were all kinds of trinkets selling on the edge of the moon cake stall, the most conspicuous was the rabbit master, and the children passing by were almost one in their hands.

The middle-aged man is also a child: "I'll buy one too." ”

The servant Ma Huang touched his pocket: "Master, I didn't bring any money." ”

The middle-aged man looked at the boss with an embarrassed face, and was hesitating whether to return the things, but he heard a voice next to him: "It's rare that Mr. is so Yaxing, how can you not want it?" ”

Ren Tian walked over, and the little Deng Zi on the side was very conscious of paying, and the middle-aged man smiled: "Huang Gongzi also came out to play?" ”

"yes, I didn't expect to meet Mr. again."

Ren Tian also smiled.

"In that case, together?"

"Together."

The two of them walked towards the west of Nanxian again, where it was the biggest place to guess the lantern riddle, and sure enough, they walked over and saw that the platform was set up, and all kinds of colorful lights were hanging there, and there were words on them.

Many people are already guessing here, and they can only watch the excitement, and the most important thing is the scholars.

Especially at the front, there was a small cluster of people there, almost like the stars and the moon, and several scholars stood there.

Ren Tian and the middle-aged man walked over, only to see that they were guessing lantern riddles.

"Tang Gongzi, this lantern riddle, you might guess it?"

A scholar is holding a paper fan in his hand, shaking and shaking, and there is a very chic feeling.

The boy next to him was thinking about it, and several sons around him were also pointing there.

Ren Tian only watched it interestingly, the boy who shook the paper fan was too pretending.

"Looking south at the lone star, this lantern riddle is not bad."

The middle-aged man next to him also nodded.

The boy in front seemed to hear it, and immediately turned his head and looked at Ren Tian and his party.

"Oh? Listening to what is said below, it seems that this lantern riddle is simple? ”

The middle-aged man smiled: "It's just a word puzzle, what's so difficult?" ”

Tang Gongzi before was shocked: "Is it easy?" Why does this son find it difficult? ”

The paper fan boy slapped his hand, and the paper fan closed: "Since this is the case, then you can guess it, I forgot to say that most of these lantern riddles are made by this son." ”

He raised his chin and was as proud as a little peacock.

The middle-aged man smiled: "What's so difficult, isn't this just the word 'Zhuang'." ”

The paper fan boy was shocked, and the rest of the people were also discussing, Tang Gongzi was still puzzled, but the middle-aged man explained: "'Up and down to the south, left to the west, right to the east', 'South Wang' refers to the lower part of the word 'Wang', 'Lone Star' refers to a point, and 'Meiyue' refers to the moon at the beginning of the month, like a skimming." 'Apostrophe' is added to the left of the word 'Wang', and 'dot' is on the top of the word 'Wang', and the combination of the three parts becomes the word 'Zhuang', I guess right? ”

The paper fan boy frowned slightly: "Your Excellency has some talent, why don't you continue to guess?" ”

The surrounding melon-eating crowd also watched the excitement and coaxed: "Keep guessing, keep guessing." ”

Ren Tian was also interesting: "Why don't you continue to guess sir?" ”

The middle-aged man smiled happily: "Since that's the case, I'll continue to guess." ”

The second lantern riddle is "fireworks do not approach, rest assured", Ren Tian saw this lantern riddle, but also couldn't help but think, but the middle-aged man just glanced at it, and said with a smile: "This is a grace word, the so-called 'fireworks do not approach', remove the 'fire' of the word 'smoke' and leave the 'cause', and put the 'heart' under the 'cause' to become 'grace'." ”

The people around applauded, Ren Tian was also shocked, and Tang Gongzi was even more unconscious, why didn't I expect it?

The paper fan boy was really surprised: "The third lantern riddle, the person who came turned out to be Penglaike." ”

The middle-aged man smiled again: "This is also simple, the so-called Penglai is the place where the gods live, which means that the people who come are immortals, and the people who come become immortals, so what does the human character add to become immortals?" It's very simple, add the word mountain, so the answer to this mystery is mountain. ”

Sure enough, when the lantern was taken down, the mystery inside was a mountain.

The people around him were addicted, and Ren Tian heard the system prompt: "Ding, Zhongyuan Festival, there are celebrities and celebrities who have outstanding performance in the lantern riddle guessing link, and they will increase their cultural development points by 0.3 points." ”

Even Ban Jieyu whispered closer: "Your Majesty, this person has a good acquaintance, it is rare, Your Majesty can invite him to enter the court as an official." ”

Ren Tian nodded lightly, who is this middle-aged man?

The paper fan boy said, "What about the next one?" ”

Ren Tian looked up, and what followed was a couplet riddle, under the feet of the bright moon and half of Evian, and the remnants of flowers fell in front of the horse's hooves.
