Chapter 16 Qujiang Feast
After all kinds of lively jubilation, Chen Guangrui, the champion with a red face, was slightly tired, and finally came to his house on a high-headed horse, only to see the door head covered with red and hanging colors, the door gongs and drums were noisy, and his classmate Qian Bodang led a team of people to welcome the champion Lang into the gate ceremoniously.
The Chen family was lively and jubilant, and they were full of joy when they learned that Chen Guangrui, the son of the Chen family, was the new champion of high school, and relatives, friends, classmates, old friends, and neighbors from near and far came to congratulate and congratulate them, so that the people inside and outside the Chen family's chaimen, which was quiet and deserted in the past, were full of voices and lively. Chen's father and Chen's mother are also red-faced, busy and busy, the honest and honest Chen family's parents beckoned the guests to sit down and drink tea for a while, and for a while they wrapped some happy money for the tolerance who came in to deliver the good news.
Seeing that the home was crowded, and even the neighbors who didn't know each other came to say hello one after another, Chen Guangrui's heart sighed, "No one asks about the cold window for ten years, and the world knows it in one fell swoop!"
Classmate friend Qian Bodang is also busy with the Chen family, as if he is half the owner of the Chen family.
The west wing of Yinfu
Yin Wenjiao is stroking the piano by the window, the sound of the ding-dong guqin is clear and melodious, gradually soothing the worries in her heart, temporarily forgetting the inner thoughts of the fuqin people, the early spring sunshine is reflected on Yin Wenjiao's fair face through the screen window, which is more and more delicate and pretty.
"Miss, good news, great news!" Chunhua held a piece of paper in her hand, and walked into Miss Wen Jiao's boudoir excitedly, hearing the voice of the comer, the sound of the guqin stopped abruptly.
Miss Wen Jiao's expectant phoenix eyes looked at Chunhua, Chunhua blinked, and asked with a smile, "Miss, what day is today?"
Miss Wen Jiao smiled: "Today is not the second day of the second month of February. Does the dragon raise its head?"
Chunhua smiled and asked, "What else?"
"And ?。。 Well, today is the day of the release of the list in the spring of this year, isn't the good news you said has something to do with it?"
"Well, Miss is very smart, exactly. Chunhua nodded, her joy overflowing.
Miss Wen Jiao saw what Chunhua was holding in her hand, and stretched out her Qianqianyu hand: "Chunhua, show it to me." ”
"Miss. This is the list of the current subject emperor list that I just copied at the gate of the Southern Academy, and I am glad that Chen Gongzi High School is the top student in this subject!"
Rao was born in a family of eunuchs, and he has seen many scenes with his parents, and Miss Wen Jiao can't help but be a little ruddy at the moment, and her hands trembling slightly when she looks at the list.
"Miss's vision is really not bad, this Chen Gongzi is really the top student in the new high school department! Congratulations to Miss, Miss Hexi!" Chunhua saw that Miss Yin was a little excited, and hurriedly said happy.
Miss Yin was overjoyed for a moment, then calmed down after thinking about it, and said to herself, "Where does my joy come from?"
Chunhua replied: "Miss don't be impatient! Chen Gongzi is a sincere person, he has an appointment with Miss, and Miss is a person like heaven and man, then Chen Gongzi will definitely go to my Yin Mansion to ask for marriage, maybe he is riding a horse on the street at this time! ”
Listening to Chunhua's words, Yin Wenjiao's heart was a little calm.
The next day, in the Tang Paradise, the Son of Heaven gave a banquet on the bank of the Qujiang River, and the new scholars all went to the Qujiang Pavilion for the banquet.
On the day of the banquet, the two banks of the Qujiang River were crowded, the water surface was heavy with colorful painting boats, and the colorful tents of dignitaries and nobles were lined up.
In Chang'an City, regardless of the old and the young, the old and the young flocked to the city, so that the carriages and horses were blocked and it was difficult to pass.
On the sparkling water, a clanging pipa sound sounded in a painting boat, which turned out to be a song "Young Champion Words":
"The first immortal among the five hundred, waiting for leisure to step into the sky.
The green robe is heavy at first glance, and the emperor is fresh at the beginning of the imperial list.
The dragon is a horse, the jade is a whip, and the flowers are like Luo Qiliu like cotton.
At that time, people were not surprised to become early, and Chang'e loved the youth. ”
When the woman who played the pipa had a soft and clear voice, like a song and a complaint, and she was in response to the occasion, and when she sang "When the people of the time are not surprised to go to the department early, since Chang'e loves the youth", the crowd on both sides of the strait unanimously responded to the peace, and there were also people in the Qujiang Pavilion who applauded loudly!
For a while, the laughter of everyone and the sound of children's coaxing resounded through Qujiang, and Chen Guangrui, who was dressed in a red robe and tasted the imperial wine, also blushed at this time, indulging in this picturesque beauty.
While drinking fine wine, while listening to the songs and dancing of the pride of the heavens were intoxicated, a young jinshi arched his hand, and proposed that everyone choose the youngest and handsome two to serve as the flower explorer, the selected flower envoy rode on a tall horse, can walk all over the famous gardens of Chang'an City, pick flowers in early spring.
According to the practice of previous years, the flower tanhua envoy can dedicate the famous flowers he picks to the person he likes. Hearing this, all the Jinshi understood in their hearts that "famous flowers and famous flowers" was a pun, so they all laughed and applauded!
Chen Guangrui is handsome and chic, and he is the champion of the Yuanlang, so he naturally entered the list of Tanhua envoys without dispute, and the other person was quite controversial, and after fierce debates, he finally selected a thin and fair-skinned, well-mannered second-class Jinshi as another Tanhua envoy.
Next to the Qujiang River, there are many colorful tents of dignitaries and nobles, and the colorful tents are all rich or expensive celebrities in the capital.
Here, the young Jinshi were arguing about the candidate for another Tanhua envoy, and the princes and nobles and daughters over there also looked over, and they were vying to evaluate the Jinshi there, hoping that the selected Tanhua envoy would be their favorite candidate, and even more hoping that the Tanhua envoy in their minds could pick their own famous flower.
In a gorgeous and atmospheric color tent, Yin's mother, Yin Wenjiao, and Chunhua's master and servant are also in the tent to watch the scenery and narrate, and the head is evaluated, Miss Wen Jiao is slim, but the phoenix eyes look at the Qujiang Pavilion from time to time, and the heart is very much looking forward to the lover Chen Guangrui can be a flower explorer, and he can pick this flower and fulfill the promise of the spring of the day.
At this time, surrounded by the Jinshi, Chen Guangrui and other two flower tanning envoys were helped onto the high-headed horses by everyone, and began the journey of flower exploration in the laughter of the Jinshi.
Seeing that the two flower explorers had come out of the Qujiang Pavilion on horseback, everyone in the color tent came to watch, guessing that the flower explorer, especially the handsome champion Lang, would stop at the door of the color tent and pick the famous flowers of which house.
In front of everyone's eyes, Chen Guangrui rode a high-headed horse, believing that the horse was reined and moving forward, but he was thinking in his heart: There will be a color tent of Yinfu in so many color tents? While thinking in his heart, he paid attention to looking for the Yin Mansion color tent, and after looking for a while, he didn't find the Yin Mansion's color tent, let alone saw the shadow of Miss Wen Jiao, so he was a little anxious, thinking: Today's flower explorer can pick famous flowers in the name of righteousness, if you can't find the Yin Mansion color tent, wouldn't it be a pity to find the identity of this flower explorer, wouldn't you miss the great opportunity to ask the Yin family? !
Seeing the young and handsome, suave champion Lang slowly coming, the Beijing ladies in the color tent have opened the color tent, and they all locked their eyes on Chen Guangrui with anticipation, and their charming eyes are looking at Champion Lang, most of the young women in the Tang Dynasty dare to love and hate, bold and open, and here and now they are boldly showing their love to Chen Guangrui, without a trace of scruples!
