There are many lantern festivals in Kaifeng Mansion throughout the year, the most important of which is the Lantern Festival once a year, followed by this time in the middle of the year!

Li Zhongxuan's father loved to compose lyrics, and Li Zhongxuan's favorite literati was the poet immortal Li Taibai, so as soon as he heard these people talking about poetry, he naturally walked over.

Unexpectedly, I saw a familiar face, which turned out to be the old man at the same table at dinner this morning. Seeing him living among the crowd, he looked quite prestigious. Li Zhongxuan stood on the periphery and looked at the scene with considerable interest.

Seeing a group of people frowning and thinking, it turned out that they were guessing lantern riddles at the moment.

The old man named Cheng Yu pointed to the lantern hanging high and said with a smile: "I don't know which genius can guess the answer to this question!"

Li Zhongxuan looked at the lantern when he heard this, and said silently: "The mountains of the water town have turned green, guess a word." ”

Bow your head and start thinking, the water town, the mountain appearance, have all changed to cyan, guess a word!

Li Zhongxuan's eyes lit up suddenly, there is! Green and green are similar, and the word "green" has changed to green, isn't it the word "green"?

I had just come up with an answer, but I heard someone already answer.

Li Zhongxuan said silently, it is worthy of being the capital of Song, and it is really outstanding......

Hearing someone shouting the answer, Cheng Yu stroked his beard and smiled: "Yes, it is the word 'green'." I learned about this puzzle by chance from the footwalker, and I thought it was wonderful at the time, so I took it out and shared it with you. ”

I saw a young man wearing a scarf and holding a flower and bird fan and said with a smile: "Thank you Cheng Gong for sharing such wonderful lantern riddles with us!"

Hearing this, Cheng Yu waved his hand at the young man who had just said the answer, and then said with a smile: "Cheng Gong's name, I can't do it! Zhao Gongzi, I'm just a little judge in Kaifeng Mansion, how can I be worthy of such a title!"

"Why should Cheng Gong be humble, my father often told me that Cheng Gong's talent is almost unmatched in the world, and we all think so!" the young man continued.

"In the past, Xie Lingyun once said that geniuses have a total of one stone, and Cao Zhi has eight buckets alone! What is Cheng Gong's talent inferior to Cao Zhi? What Brother Zhao said is absolutely not false, and Cheng Gong does not need to be humble!" said a somewhat obese young man.

This fat man in gorgeous clothes actually said that Cheng Yu could compare his talent with Cao Zhi, which really made Li Zhongxuan never expect it.

After Cheng Yu's words, Li Zhongxuan heard it in his heart: Kaifeng Mansion Yin, little judge!

As far as Li Zhongxuan knows, Jingzhao Yin of Kaifeng Mansion is Zhao Guangyi, Zhao Da's younger brother, if he can get close to this Cheng Yu, then he will have the opportunity to get close to Zhao Guangyi!

If he can do a position such as a personal guard under Zhao Guangyi, he will have a chance to get close to Zhao Da at that time! But it's too early to think about these children, the top priority is to get close to this Cheng Yu first!

At this moment, Cheng Yu heard that these young people actually compared them with Cao Zhi, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Don't say that, where can I compare with Cao Zhi and Cao Badou? Zhao Gongzi Qian Gongzi said this, it really hurt the old man!"

It turns out that this fat man's surname is Qian, Li Zhongxuan said in his heart, judging from his appearance, this person is rich, otherwise where would so much fat come from!

Seeing that Zhao Qian and the others were going to continue talking, Cheng Yu interrupted them and continued: "Since you want to guess the lantern riddle, I will tell you another difficult one!"

Everyone cheered up when they heard it, Cheng Yu's lantern riddle is indeed difficult, but if he can show his face in front of Cheng Yu, he can leave a small impression on him, which will be of great benefit to his future!

Although Cheng Yu is only a small judge of Kaifeng Mansion, Jingzhao Yin and Zhao Guangyi at this time have great respect for him. Who is Zhao Guangyi? When he is today's son's own brother! How can a person who can win Zhao Guangyi's respect be an idle person?

Cheng Yu was a jinshi when he was later promoted, and he was a county official in many places in the early years, and his political achievements were good! In addition, he was very fond of promoting his juniors, and others came to him for advice, and he always had to answer questions, so many young people regarded him as a role model.

I saw him ponder for a moment and said: "The bright moon is hanging in the sky, guess a word!" After speaking, he looked at the talents in front of him with a smile.

Cheng Yu said that it was difficult before, so it was naturally difficult, so one by one the talented people began to think hard with doubts on their faces.

Li Zhongxuan's face was very calm, he squeezed in, and then appeared in front of Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu looked at the young man who appeared in front of him with a smile and said, "This boy has an answer?"

Li Zhongxuan made a respectful gesture towards him, firstly, this person is old, and it is natural for him to salute as a junior; secondly, Zhao Qian and the others compared this person's style with Cao Zhi, which can be seen to be average, even if it is not as good as estimating, it is not far away, so this salute Li Zhongxuan is willing!

In addition, this puzzle at this moment is really mysterious, if it is an ordinary person, even if you think about it for a day, I am afraid you will not be able to come up with the answer. If he was a deceitful person, how could he possibly tell such a puzzle?

Why did Li Zhongxuan know that this puzzle was difficult? Because he had seen this puzzle in the library in the cave, a literary scholar had thought about it for more than two hours before he came up with the answer.

As soon as Li Zhongxuan heard this riddle, he naturally thought of the answer, so he looked relaxed and indifferent, and calmly squeezed into the crowd!

At this time, when he heard Cheng Yu's question, Li Zhongxuan replied: "It's the word 'Dan'!"

Cheng Yu didn't expect someone to come up with this puzzle so quickly, he thought about it for three or four hours before he came up with the answer, this young man is not simple!

The son surnamed Zhao was a little surprised and a little confused when he heard Li Zhongxuan say the answer so quickly at this moment, why is it the word "Dan"?

He looked at the fat man who was also frowning and thinking about it, and then pushed him with his elbow.

Seeing this, the fat man immediately understood, and he was embarrassed to ask why, so he asked me to ask! So he arched his hand at Li Zhongxuan and asked: "I really can't think of why it is the word 'Dan', and I ask Gongzi to solve his doubts." ”

Cheng Yu looked at Li Zhongxuan with appreciation and nodded. Hearing Qian Fatzi's question, he then preached to Li Zhong: "I don't know how you came up with the word 'Dan', say it for everyone." ”

"Dare to ask all brothers, this bright moon is in the sky, and the word 'Ming' is missing the month, has it become 'day'?" Li Zhongxuan said loudly.

Cheng Yu stroked his beard and smiled, but did not speak. Although Zhao Gongzi wanted to know why, he was ashamed to open his mouth to someone younger than himself, so Qian Fat Man spoke: "That's true, then why is it a 'dan' instead of 'day'?"

Li Zhongxuan said with a smile: "Don't forget that there are three words hanging in the clouds, so naturally you have to take a 'one' word, isn't it a 'dan' word when you add it up?"

Zhao Qian and the others showed expressions of sudden realization, and then Zhao Gongzi said: "Gongzi is talented, dare to ask Gongzi's surname?"

Qian Fatzi followed: "Qian can't get acquainted with Gongzi as soon as possible, please tell me quickly and wait for Gongzi's surname!"

Cheng Yu also said: "It's really a good insight, there is a great talent in the chest, I spent three or four hours solving this puzzle at the beginning, I didn't expect you to solve the answer in such a short time, it's really a talented person from generation to generation!"

Li Zhongxuan's face was a little ashamed, and he lowered his head and said: "You are really praised, where do I have such a great talent to win the Cheng Gong?" It's just that I once read an ancient book in the past, which recorded many interesting lantern riddles, so I just wrote down some, so I don't say my name!"

Zhao Qian and the others looked at each other and smiled, so it was so, they also said that the person in front of them really learned from the past and the present, but he was just a person who deceived the world and stole his name. But this person is also honest, and he actually said this! If it were the two of them, he would never say it to others!

What the two didn't expect was that Cheng Yu had even more appreciation on his face.

He gently patted Li Zhongxuan on the shoulder, and then said to him earnestly: "You can tell us this matter honestly, the old man never expected! In today's world, how many people can treat people with sincerity like this? Not bad! Not bad! Not bad!"

Li Zhongxuan just didn't want to plagiarize the wisdom of his predecessors, so he said what he knew and thought in his heart, who would have thought that Cheng Yu would excitedly say three "good" in a row.

And Zhao Qian and the two looked at each other, and their faces showed a hint of incomprehension. They originally thought that Cheng Yu would reveal the matter, after all, this person just knew the answer early, who would have thought that he would praise this person like this!

Now that Cheng Yu has spoken, how can they not open their mouths to respond?

This time, it was Zhao Gongzi who spoke first, and he arched his hand towards Li Zhongxuan: "Brother Tai is so open-minded that we admire! Now that the world is declining, people's hearts are not ancient, if others know the answer early, I'm afraid few people can do it as clearly as Brother Tai, so please also ask Brother Tai to tell me and other honorable names and where we live, and I hope to drink and talk with Brother Tai in the future!"

Qian Fatzi also smiled, "Yes, my brother's talent is better than me and so on, please tell me the name of the residence, I will send someone to invite you another day!"

Li Zhongxuan first bowed down to Cheng Yu and said: "It's just that I don't want to plagiarize the wisdom of my predecessors, so I told the truth, and I really can't afford to be praised by Cheng Gong!"

Then looking at the sincere faces of Zhao Qian and the others, Li Zhongxuan couldn't help but smile and said: "The next surname is Li Wenhua, a person from Jinling, who has no fixed residence in Bianjing, and now lives in Ruyi Building temporarily!"

Li Zhongxuan deliberately said a fake name, so many people here would be troubled if someone with magical powers found out his true identity, so he kept an eye on it!

Zhao Qian and the others nodded when they heard this, and Qian Fat said: "I heard Brother Li's accent not like that of Bianjing, it turned out to be from Jinling! I have long heard that there are many talented and beautiful people on both sides of the Qinhuai River, and when I see it today, it really deserves its reputation!"

Zhao Gongzi also nodded and said, "What Brother Qian said is reasonable!"

Cheng Yu sighed when he heard this, "Nantang is indeed a talented person, especially the most prosperous in the future, Li Yu, that shocking words really make me feel ashamed." It's a pity that he was born in the wrong place, otherwise he would definitely be a role model for me!"

When Li Zhongxuan heard that he actually mentioned his father, he was also a little sentimental, and he also inquired a lot about Li Yu along the way.

At the beginning of the year, he was captured to Bianjing City, and then he was named the Marquis of Disobedience, worshipping General Zuo Qianniuwei, the emperor did not exist, but he saved his life!

Originally, as soon as he entered Bianjing City, he planned to meet his father. But thinking that although his father was disobedient on the face at this moment, he must have been under surveillance for a long time and lived a captive life. But fortunately, there was no need to worry about food and clothing, so as not to arouse the suspicion of the Song court, so Li Zhongxuan did not bother.

Li Zhongxuan bowed his head to prevent others from seeing his sad expression, and then replied: "Empress Li does have an amazing talent, but it is a pity that he was born in the emperor's family!"

At this time, a small servant suddenly squeezed into the crowd and whispered a few words in Cheng Yu's ear.
