Chapter 199: The Eagles Depend on Each Other

Xiao Qinglang glanced at him, nodded and repeated: "This is true, profiteer." ”

This time Hua Wuzhi is simply choked and wants to cry without tears, if you want to talk about profiteers, isn't it himself? Although Xiao Qinglang also has some industries, strictly speaking, he does not operate them. As for himself, he opened a gluttonous building as a businessman......

has been hit several times, and every time he is still interested, he wants to expose Xiao Qinglang's shortcomings. Each time, however, the results were not satisfactory.

The sky is getting dark, and the lights are on. After sending the wilted flower to be disease-free, Xiao Qinglang found the door of Xu Chu's house.

"Xiao Chu, do you want to visit Jinzhou City together?"

It was silent, not even a glimmer of light.

He sighed helplessly and continued: "The person sent to Qingyun Town to investigate the Song family in detail replied that Song Deqing left the town yesterday and came all the way to Jinzhou City. It just so happened that tonight Song Derong also wanted to bring Mrs. Song to watch the lanterns in the market to show that the government and the people were having fun. According to the distance, the two will probably bump into each other. ”

I don't know how long it took for the door to finally open from the inside. Xu Chufei's cheeks were red, and he said with shyness and doubt: "Song Deqing's wife and daughter were killed one after another, and his wife passed away less than 100 days, according to the law of the Great Zhou, he should keep filial piety in the old mansion for 100 days." Why do you suddenly want to come to Jinzhou City? ”

Xiao Qinglang saw that she was willing to come out, and the stone in her heart slowly fell. He shook his head and said, "The reason is unknown for the time being, but it should be related to Song Derong." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and walked out. Naturally, Xu Chu also subconsciously followed.

Looking at the dossier, the relationship between the two families was quite close, and even when their family settled in Jinzhou City, they were only separated by a wall from the Song Mansion. But since a few years ago, it seems that there has been a gap. However, Song Deqing is still filial to Mrs. Song and Mrs. Song, and often visits and takes care of her, but we don't have the rules of separating families from the elders in Da Zhou, and most of them live with the heirs with the best status, so Song Derong, as a state official, takes the second elder by his side as a matter of course to take care of him. Xiao Qinglang glanced at her and saw that she was deep in thought, so he said, "The reason for the estrangement is unknown to outsiders, and even when others asked, the two of them kept silent. ”

"You say, could it be related to Aunt Yang?" Xu Chu speculated.

At this time, the two had already left the hospital. But I saw that the people outside were boiling, the traffic was busy, and the lanterns were circling as far as the eye could see, and the ambilight was like a galaxy. The lanterns are connected end to end, and the night sky is brilliant and magnificent.

Between the brilliant lights, Xiao Qinglang looked back and smiled lightly, stretched out his right hand to look at Xu Chu. He didn't speak, but his eyebrows were already full of affection.

On the side of the street, the bustle and bustle have faded, as if only the two of them were left in the world. And the Milky Way-like lights and flower buildings have also become embellishments.

"Xiao Chu?" Xiao Qinglang raised his eyebrows and called softly.

In the hustle and bustle of the city, Xu Chu, who was suddenly silent, suddenly burst into a smile, she took a deep breath and took a step forward, putting her hand into the palm that was already slightly cool.

This time, her face was still stained with a layer of red glow, but there was no trace of charm. Just like an ordinary delicate woman, she looked at him sideways with a smile, "Just now I saw the playboy talking about Mingzhu in a depressed mood, but the two of them had a conflict again?" ”

Xiao Qinglang pinched her fingers and held the person to her side, lest she be scattered by the crowd. When he heard her question clearly, he said casually: "It's probably the love between the two." ”

As for the inside story, he felt that there was no need to say more. He didn't want to have two more tails in the rare time with Xiao Chu.

The lanterns in Jinzhou City are extremely beautiful, and tonight, even if it is a boudoir woman, she can go out with her family or close friends. Therefore, compared with the dazzling array of lanterns and accessories, the slender women in colorful clothes are also a highlight.

Xiao Qinglang thought that Xu Chu had very little for dinner, and he had an empty stomach at noon because of the Nanfeng Pavilion and his party, so he just looked for all kinds of snacks and snacks for her to try.

"Alas, this millet cake is really delicious, sweet and extremely crisp." Xu Chu sighed and took another bite.

Xiao Qinglang saw that she was happy to eat, so he didn't interrupt, and directly bit the place where she had bitten. At the moment when Xu Chu was stunned, he nodded and spoke: "It's really sweet." ”

Xu Chu's cheeks were hot by him, and he didn't know whether to continue or what, but Xiao Qinglang said softly: "It seems that you can guess the lantern riddle in front, let's go and see?" ”

"Eun." Xu Chu nodded indiscriminately, hurriedly stuffed the remaining millet cake in his hand into his mouth, and then let him hold his hand and move forward.

Under the flickering lights in his eyes, he was still that tall figure, just like the cattle grocery store in Yunan County years ago. In the crowd, she can always stand out from the crowd and let her see it at a glance.

At that time, he also held her hand like this, carefully avoiding the crowd.

Just when her heart softened because of the memory, she saw that they were already standing under the flower stand. And on the flower stand, there is a row of lanterns with excellent workmanship.

"Today, the old decay is here to set up a stage, in order to borrow the auspicious atmosphere of the treasure land and start the new year. In order to show his sincerity, Lao Yu hung out the six best lanterns in the house. This first lantern is an auspicious spring lantern. The second is a four-cornered silk embroidery lamp, which is embroidered with plum blossom branches, which is the most proud and clean. The third is the hexagonal glazed lamp, crystal clear, more exquisite than the gold and jade, the whole Jinzhou city is so rare lanterns, the fourth lantern is the peony bud lamp, this lamp is vivid, inside and outside two layers, there are several delicate water chestnut lamps such as fine candles to do the stamens, there are peony fancy marquee lamps outside, the slightest movement in the hand will be like the peony flower like the general tremor and then bloom. The fifth lantern is the umbrella pot lamp, which is decorated with pearls and jade, and once the pot light is lit in the umbrella, it will be extremely gorgeous. After he finished speaking, the person stood in the center of the stage, and then uncovered the red cloth on the table, and introduced it with a happy face, "As for the six lanterns in this place, they are the lanterns of the amphibious palace of the cormorants." The Book of Mountains and Seas has recorded that this bird belongs to the phoenix, like a big red eye. They always fly both male and female, and are more loving than mandarin ducks. If one of them dies, the other will mourn for three days and nights. In the end, the blood was cold, the blood was dry, and it was subordinate to Jiuquan. The so-called life and death go hand in hand, and that's probably it. And this lamp, I spent several years of painstaking efforts to make, on which the cormorant is painted by the master, and carved by the master of the Mo family himself, and the head of the cormorant is decorated with feathers, the body is completely inlaid with purple gemstones, and the base is set off with fine white jade. Even if it doesn't move, it is still brilliant and dazzling. ”

As we all know, the Mo family is the most skilled craftsman, and the contemporary Mo family master is the most famous. Even in the court, its craftsmanship and techniques are also very valued.

As people exclaimed, Xu Chu also set his eyes on the cormorant lantern. Although she didn't know what the status of the master was, she could guess a thing or two from the dumb gasps in the crowd. What's more, just look at the lantern, beautiful, its shape is a double cormorant, quite phoenix style, only the color is a little low because of the purple crystal wrap.

The Great Zhou Dynasty is not strict with these controls, as long as they do not use the posture of the dragon and phoenix, they will generally not offend Tianwei. Therefore, Xu Chu didn't think it was strange.

Xiao Qinglang saw that she paid special attention to the lantern, as if she liked and marveled, so she quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and then bowed slightly to Wei Yan who was hidden in the dark. It was not in vain that he sent someone to the capital early to send this lamp out quickly, and he also took the trouble to set up this platform.

You must know that although most people only recognize the name of the colorful phoenix, they are not familiar with the cormorant. But for him, the cormorant is not only the embodiment of affection, but also a totem that can be used by the princess of the palace.

As the riddles came out one after another on the stage, most of the men in the audience tried their best to think about the Pomeranian's smile. From simple charades to hidden words with poems and songs, if you don't have some knowledge, I'm afraid you won't even have the chance to guess the third riddle.

After all, the owner of the station stipulates that if you don't guess in the first game or guess wrong, you will lose the opportunity to guess the next game. If you guess correctly, you will take the lantern away in order, and the one who guesses first will take it away.

And Xiao Qinglang guessed it at the second place every time. In this way, it made Xu Chu pity for a long time.

It's not that Xu Chu is unwilling to use her brain, it's really that she is the worst at guessing charades from the ancients.

Like "The Gate Reflects the Waning Moon", "Its Own Autumn Colors with the West Building" and even "Picking Up the Left and Filling the Que on the Right", they all sound extremely elegant, but Xu Chu can't guess any of them.

In the end, she is hundreds or even thousands of years different from the Great Zhou Dynasty, and she is lucky to be able to re-learn traditional Chinese characters and autopsy classics. It's really hard for her to guess the word puzzle.

"A little bit of Zhou Yu is bad, three battles against Lu Bu and Liu Guanzhang; It is said that Cao Cao, the king of Wei, invaded Xinjiang with 100,000 male soldiers; Once the Chibi fire, Sichuan Liu Bei was called king; At present, Kong Ming offered a plan, and 8,000 children surrendered. ”

When this puzzle came out, Xu Chu was shocked in his heart. In the history books of the Great Zhou Dynasty she read, there was no such thing as the Three Kingdoms that she was familiar with in her previous life, and now this puzzle ......

Xiao Qinglang saw that Xu Chu was puzzled, so he explained: "A few years ago, there was a scholar named Huhai Sanren, who made a living by writing scripts all year round, and this script was written by him. It was also sold by some booksellers in the capital, but later the scholar disappeared out of thin air, and the only book of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms that flowed out of his hand became the only one. ”

Three kingdoms? Scattered people in the lake and sea? Isn't that Luo Guanzhong himself? No, it can't be the ancients Luo Guanzhong, if it is really him, then with his talent and learning, it is impossible to disappear in the market.

Xu Chu's eyes widened, if she said this, wouldn't it mean that her previous guess was true, and someone else had crossed over besides her?

"Do you know who that person is?"

Xiao Qinglang shook his head, "At that time, I had a secret investigation, but there was no result at all. Because it's just a script, I didn't pay attention to it. "No,
