Chapter 28: The Lantern Riddle
I saw that the person on the stage frowned slightly, looking thoughtful.
He had answered the question very quickly, and the incense had only just burned a third of it, and he still had a lot of time to think about it.
This problem is not calculated by death, but it is not calculated, and it is necessary to use the surplus and deficiency technique to make assumptions and get the result.
The questioner just wanted to remind him not to be in a hurry, but he saw that Lang Jun smiled lightly and said: "We will meet after about two hours and three quarters, and as for the time of meeting......
He paused and continued: "When we met, the rat wore two feet four inches and seven minutes, and the mouse wore one foot five inches and three minutes. β
When Aman heard this, he couldn't help but whisper: "Seventh lady, has this Langjun ever answered correctly?" β
He Ling Jiang bowed his head slightly and said, "That's right." β
Ah Man stroked his palm and said: "Then this Lang Jun is really powerful, he even answered ten questions in a row." β
"yes." He Lingjiang smiled, "It's really powerful." β
The coverage of these ten questions is not extensive, and this person can answer all of them correctly in less than half a stick of incense, in addition to erudition, there must be a little bit of urgency.
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw that the questioner on the stage also announced the answer, he smiled and bent down, and said, "Lang Jun is talented, all ten questions are correct." This lantern is yours. β
As he spoke, he ordered someone to climb to the highest place of the lantern tower, took down the lantern and solemnly handed it to the Lang Jun.
From a closer distance, this lantern is really exquisite, showing exquisite thoughts.
Everyone in the audience couldn't help but burst into fierce applause and admiration.
"It's really a young talent!"
"I don't know which Lang Jun it is?"
"You don't know this?" A Lang Jun dressed as a scholar said, "This Lang Jun is from the Cui family in Jiangzhou, and the ancestor is the famous Qinghe Cui family, since the last year of the previous dynasty moved south, it was set in Jiangzhou, and it can be called a wealthy family in the entire Great Zhou." β
"This is the famous Cui Shiyi Lang of Yangjiang Prefecture?"
The man nodded.
Everyone was stunned: "It turned out to be the eleventh lang of the Cui family, no wonder he is so powerful." β
Most of the children of the Cui family are officials in the court, and the current head of the Cui family is an official and a scholar, and he is a proper second-class member.
Let's talk about Cui Jialangjun on this stage, his name, his words are Jingyan, and he ranks eleventh in the clan. At a young age, he showed unusual intelligence, and when he was six years old, he Bi once praised that "the demeanor is delicate, the demeanor is wise, and the future will definitely surpass the banquet of the king of celebrities."
Cui Jialangjun did not live up to expectations, he read poetry and books at a young age, worked in calligraphy, and was the first in the township examination in the hospital, and was the proud protΓ©gΓ© of the great Confucian Wang Lang.
"Yikes! It's Jiangzhou Cui Lang! β
When the little ladies in the audience heard this, they instantly became excited.
I have heard Jiangzhou Cui Lang Cui Jingyan for a long time, his spirit is clear, his demeanor is handsome, and the little ladies have always heard his name but not seen him, and now when he sees it, he really lives up to his reputation.
Today coincides with the Shangyuan Festival, it is a blessing to meet Cui Lang, if you can say a few more words to him, you will have no regrets in this life.
The little ladies rushed forward: "Cui Lang! β
"Eleven Lang!"
"Look over here, Cui Lang!"
Cui Shu's face stiffened, and he didn't even have time to take the lamp that he had won so hard, so he squeezed off the stage in embarrassment, covered his face with his sleeves, and dragged his companions out.
The calls of the little ladies were incessant, and handkerchiefs and sachets were thrown at him.
The companion who was dragged by him ha: "I knew that I should have pulled an ox cart over today, and I would definitely be able to return with a profit." β
"Shut up, Lu Rong!" Cui Shu said embarrassedly.
He dodged the sachets of silk sachets in embarrassment: "I shouldn't have listened to you!" β
"Okay, don't be angry!" Lu Rong smiled, "I can't let people throw fruit and profit for me!" β
Cui Shu ignored him, and only pulled him to squeeze out of the crowd.
The crowd was crowded together, and for a while it was impossible to see where Cui Lang was, only the silk sachets could be seen flying around.
Cui Shu bent his waist and covered his head with his sleeves, it was easy to break away from the crowd, he took a breath, turned back and said to Lu Rong: "Hurry up!" β
As he spoke, he strode out.
I only heard the sound of "popping", which was the crisp sound of an object falling to the ground.
Cui Shu stopped, looked at the Kunlun slave mask that fell to the ground at his feet, and couldn't help but be stunned.
He leaned over and picked up the mask and handed it to the girl in front of him: "This lady, I'm really sorry." I accidentally hit you, have you ever been hurt? β
He Lingjiang took the mask and said in a calm tone: "It's okay. β
She looked at the Cui family Langjun who won the little ladies competing to throw the handkerchief, and said: "Langjun better go quickly, if there is a push and stampede because of this, it will not be good." β
Cui Shu was stunned for a moment, looked up, and saw that the girl in front of him was as white as snow, showing a soft jade color under the light of the lights. A pair of eyebrows are picturesque, and the candlelight is reflected in the eyes, which is very clear but indescribably calm and cold.
The mask fell to the ground, and a small cut cracked on the side. He Lingjiang didn't care, raised his hand to put the mask back on his face, and then avoided the crowd and walked to the side.
The street in the center is hung with lanterns all the way, and under each lantern hangs a long note with a puzzle written on it.
Although the lantern is not as elaborate as the one on the Fang Cai Lantern Tower, it is also delicate and lovely.
The breeze blows, the lanterns sway gently, and the notes with puzzles are waving in the wind.
"Escape the world of water and clouds, and neighbor gulls and herons. The jade dust is waved before the wind, and the poplar flowers are phantom after the frost. Seven Ladies, what is this? Aman asked her holding up a note.
He Lingjiang said lightly: "It's a reed." β
Aman unfolded the note with the mystery written next to him and said with a smile: "That's true! The Seven Ladies are really amazing! β
The lantern watcher on the side stepped forward with a smile: "The little lady is smart, this lantern belongs to you." β
As he spoke, he raised his hand to take off the lantern and handed it to He Lingjiang.
This is a carp lamp, tied with bamboo strips, pasted on white paper, and made vividly.
"Thank you." He Lingjiang nodded in thanks, and then handed it to Aman, "Aman likes it, this is for you, I wish you more than enough in the days to come." β
Aman took it in surprise, took it in his hand and shook it, and the fish seemed to swim: "Thank you, Seventh Lady!" β
When she was a child, her family was poor, and later she almost starved to death due to famine, and since then, she has made a wish every New Year, wishing that she will have a full warehouse of food, more than rich, and never go hungry again.
The lantern that the lady gave her, she really likes it tightly!
There were a lot of lantern riddles hanging overhead, and He Lingjiang looked at them one by one, but he didn't guess.
Aman asked her, "Seven Ladies, don't you guess?" β
"It's interesting to watch."
As she spoke, she saw a lantern riddle.
"It's a stupid lonely one, but it's not too late to fly."
She couldn't help but sneer, when she was young in the north, she often used this to ridicule people, often saying that the other party was speechless and didn't know how to refute.
This lantern riddle may be used to make up the numbers, and there is only an ordinary lantern hanging on it. The people around you may think it's too simple and don't bother to guess.
The riddle paper was rolling in the wind, He Lingjiang reached out to help, and at this moment, a hand also stretched out beside him, which was as slender as jade and had distinct bone joints.
It's a pair of hands with a sword.
