Chapter 21 Candles in the Cave Room
After a few rounds of playing, the emperor said he was a little tired and left, and the rest of the crowd gradually left.
Jimo Yu and Le Zhengyu are holding a river lantern, the river lantern represents the will of the river god, it is said that every river lantern that goes down the river will be blessed by the river god, looking at the stars on the river surface, all kinds of paper lanterns.
Le Zhengyu's heart was warm.
"Yu'er, is that dance you dancing just now talking about the mythical story in your hometown? This king is not sarcastic when he listens to your song, isn't that Chang'e as everyone says? Jimo asked suspiciously.
In fact, in Le Zhengyu's eyes, Ji Mo Yu is a man who dares to say and do, outsiders are afraid of him and isolate him, but Le Zhengyu knows that he is a simple and straightforward person.
"yes, you hear that? That's just the opinion of most people, but who knows that the height is the loneliest."
After that, Le Zhengyu looked back at Jimo and smiled mysteriously, and said: "Hello, come and don't be rude, you invited me to eat at the largest restaurant in the capital, then I should also repay you." ”
In the king's mansion.
Jimo Yu watched Le Zhengyu take a bunch of things by himself. There was rice paper, alcohol, and bamboo strips, and then I paused to think about it, and then turned back to the house to prepare pen and ink.
He also ordered people to find cotton, and paste fine wire... Seeing that she didn't say a word, and since she came back, she was busy, running out and running in, Ji Moyu was very curious about what kind of gift she had for herself in a while.
I watched her paste three pieces of rice paper into a bucket with a sealed top, and then tied a circle with bamboo strips, and then tied two thin iron wires underneath, and then placed the bamboo ring at the bottom of the cylinder as the bottom, so that the edges of the two were close to coincide, and glued with paste.
Jimo has been smart and clever since he was a child, but he can't guess what his princess is doing at the moment.
At least he was well-informed, he hadn't seen what she had created at the moment, and he tried not to let himself be curious, but just stared at the busy figure in front of him.
Watching her wrap cotton around the bamboo strips and hang them at the intersection of the two wires, an almost lantern-like thing appeared.
"Yu'er, what is this? It feels like a lantern and it's not, this king has never seen it. Jimo asked with a curious look.
Le Zhengyu looked at his masterpiece and explained to him: "This is the Kong Ming lantern, in ancient times, it was invented by an ancient person called Wolong, it is made by using the principle that hot air is lighter than air and rises in the air. ”
Ji Mo Yu immediately grasped the key point and asked: "In this way, it can fly, and the lantern that can fly is called Kong Ming Lantern?" ”
Le Zhengyu smiled and said, "Yes! Hehe, that's it, just choose a clear and windless night, one person holds the left and right sides of the bottom of the lamp, and the other person soaks the absorbent cotton with alcohol and lights it.
Until both hands feel that the Kong Ming lantern has a rising trend, that is, slowly let go of the hands, the Kong Ming lantern will slowly fly, and the rise height can reach about 1000m. Another important role of this invention was that it was used for mutual communication between armies in warfare. ”
Then Le Zhengyu looked at the distant sky, smiled at the bright moon on the horizon, and slowly picked up the Kong Ming lantern with both hands, "Hell, you come to light it" "Well, wait... Since this lamp can fly so high in the sky, it must be like a river god who can carry wishes! ”
After speaking, he picked up the pen and paper on the side, wrote a line of small characters, and then hung it on the lamp.
I watched the lantern, which was so thin that it was almost transparent, contain a cluster of dim yellow light slowly rising into the sky, as if it could carry that beautiful wish and fly away endlessly.
"Oh, where do you think it can fly? Will it fly to another plane? Le Zhengyu asked casually.
"Another plane? Isn't that going to break out of the sky, so that it can see the king's mother? Ji Mo also looked at the bright moon, his eyes squinted slightly, and his expression flickered brightly and darkly in the moonlight.
"Yes, surely. Do you believe that souls can travel to another time and space after death? Le Zhengyu, who seemed to be asking, looked sideways at the handsome half of Jimo's face.
"Believe, Yu'er, everything you say, this king believes it." Do you believe everything? This is the warmest and most touching sentence that Le Zhengyu has heard in his two lives.
No matter how ridiculous she said, he believed her, and that's it!
She smiled at him sincerely, and that smile spread out like a piece of sunshine in Jimo's heart, and like a large field of fiery red peony, it was so dazzling and hysterical.
If the days can always be so peaceful, it would be great, but life is full of possibilities, peaceful days will always make people feel that there is an illusion that the mountain rain is about to come, the wind is full of buildings, as the saying goes, "there are many treasures, there will always be people to remember".
Since Le Zhengyu, the eldest lady of the General's Mansion, made a shocking song in the court, all kinds of rumors about her have spread throughout the capital.
And because of the Mid-Autumn Festival song, the princes and ministers were amazed, and all kinds of jealous and admiring voices set off a frenzy for a while.
"Miss, the slave maid heard that people outside are spreading today, saying that you are a heavenly maiden, not only are you beautiful, but you also sing beautifully! Hehe..."Early in the morning, Qi'er jumped up and down to talk to Le Zhengyu about rumors from the outside world.
"Qi'er, rumors stop at the wise, and that's how the three of them became tigers." Le Zhengyu kindly opened his mouth to explain to her.
"Three people become tigers! How can a man become a tiger, miss, you are always like this, can't you say something that Qi'er can understand? ”
Listening to Qi'er's confused "blame" while scratching her head.
Le Zhengyu chuckled: "It's nothing, you girl, you are usually lazy, now you know how important knowledge is!" ”
"Oh, Miss, Qi'er doesn't want to study, Qi'er is going to become a nerd, so who will make you laugh, Miss? Huh..."
Ziyi walked in at this time, and after listening to Qi'er's unashamed words, he spoke: "You! It's great not to cause trouble to the princess, just stay by the princess's side in peace, don't look at you for a while, and you will run away.
The princess is so generous, she doesn't care about you, if she meets other masters, she will definitely punish you well. ”
Le Zhengyu followed Ziyi's words and said: "Yes, you little girl, if you are disobedient one day, this princess will find a reason to marry you!" ”
After saying that, she looked at Ziyi and smiled, but Qi'er wrinkled her little face and was ashamed.
On August 16, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the moonlight was as bright as a flower, and the stars seemed to pour down, sprinkling a courtyard.
