Chapter 29 Yuanxiao Huahui (Part 2)

Chapter 29 The Twist Festival (Central)

"Park Aiqing, I decided to accept your King of Goryeo and choose to let your Princess Xiuli marry into the Great Wu Dynasty." I showed a kind smile: "You can push everything on my head. Just say that Princess Xiuli has already made an in-law with me since she was a child."

My words were simply to the heart of Park Dong-sai. This was his intention to come this time. But He Nai didn't dare to say it clearly, so he had to delay Princess Xiuli's marriage to Dawu.

As a result, both sides were very happy. No matter how I tried to keep them, Park Dong-sai expressed his intention to leave the capital immediately and return to Goryeo to report the good news.

Tao Qian's face pondered slightly, although he expressed his doubts about whether it was worth it. But when he saw me smiling, he felt relieved. So he immediately discussed Huang Daoji and said, "According to Tao Qian's plan, it would be until May that there would be a Huang Daoji. However, how could Park Dongsai be willing to wait until May? I'm afraid that the Turkic cavalry would have already arrived at the Goryeo Imperial City."

Of course, Princess Xiuli was very tempting to me, and I didn't want to wait until May. So after my words, the faster the better, Park Dongsai quickly arrived in the capital on two days and 18th.

Seeing that I was anxious, Tao Qian had to agree helplessly. My power gradually showed up. How old Tao Qian was, so naturally he would not force me on such a thing.

After the major event was settled, I returned to Yangzhai leisurely. After lunch, I took a nap. During this period, all the girls also came to me, and originally wanted to make an appointment to play the new Cuju game I invented. But seeing that I was sleeping soundly, I had to go to Cining Palace together and prepare to play my new Cuju game in the yard of Cining Palace.

After they left, I quickly got up and covered Yangzhai Zhai in a row, walked through the Imperial Garden, and went to the corner tower next to Shenwu Gate.

When the boy Bai Shixing saw me, he hurriedly led me into the corner building and changed me into the casual clothes he had prepared. In this way, he returned to the Shenwu Gate with his token and walked up the street.

Joke, today is the Yuanxiao Festival. The flower party on the street is extremely lively. The key is that these riddles and flowers will make the ladies who are not out of the gate of Pingyuli and who are not in the gate of the two gates disguised themselves on the street to join in the fun. Many talented and beautiful women meet at this Yuanxiao Festival. Although I am not a talented man, I am a wealthy man at least.

Although I was only following Bai Shixing, Bai Shixing had already arranged the safety issues properly.

According to Bai Shixing's introduction, lantern festivals in previous years were held at Wende Bridge. It was originally a lively place, with all kinds of snacks and restaurants. In addition, the lantern festivals were definitely more crowded and lively. Sure enough, when it was still a long distance from Wende Bridge, there were already many people gathered, and most of them were young people, wearing new clothes, walking together in groups of three or two, talking and laughing all the way, which was very freehand.

I shook the folding fan and walked on the bluestone road with a swagger, looking around. There were indeed many beauties of all kinds. The young ladies who lived in Pingyue also took the girls out shopping. However, the businessmen were so happy that they couldn't even close their mouths. No matter whether you sell snacks or lanterns, you made a lot of money.

When I arrived near Wende Bridge, there were already a lot of people around me, and most of them came to join in the fun. But there were also a few prodigal sons like Bai Shixing, who came specifically to take advantage of the situation.

"Master, there are people guessing riddles in front of you. Why not go and see the fun?" Bai Shixing pointed ahead, the place with the largest number of onlookers.

Lantern riddles? I don’t know how to play. If I had known that Liu Yingzhu had been brought out, she seemed to be very good at this kind of flower job.

However, if you bring a woman out, it would be inconvenient to act. Thinking about it, you will feel relieved. There will be gains and losses. So you happily squeezed forward with Bai Shixing, especially into the beautiful sisters. Although it often caused a lot of scolding, the two of them seemed to be happy and used their whole body to take advantage of their activities.

The two of them finally came to the riddle scene, which was indeed the most crowded place. But I am not afraid of thieves and other things. I am afraid there are not many thieves who can steal things under Bai Shixing's nose.

"All the talented and beautiful ladies, the villain Chen Laoshi, is from Suzhou Prefecture. I heard that scholars in the capital are the best in the world. Today, this riddle party is held to meet the situation and be artful." Chen Laoshi really looked honest and smiled honestly: "There are hundreds of riddles here. If anyone is interested, please pay one tael of silver to guess a riddle. If you guess correctly, you will give this lantern with both hands, plus a three tael of joy."

Haha, what a bet? I wonder if he will pay taxes after he gained profits? Khan, since he became emperor, his first reaction was taxes.

Hearing that only one tael of silver could win three taels of silver. The people below were all excited, and some people began to point at Chen Laoshi and laughed at him as a fool.

It is undeniable that Chen Chen can indeed master people's psychology. A young couple next to me looks like a couple, and the woman is stunned to ask the man to win a lantern. For those girls, this kind of hard-earned lantern is hundreds of times happier than buying it yourself.

Sure enough, there were many people who signed up. After paying Chen Laoshi a tael of silver, they picked a lantern and began to guess. However, what many people didn't expect was that there were very few people who could really guess the answer to the riddle, and no one in the ten could guess it.

Chen Laoshi made hundreds of taels of silver at once, but he didn't smile. He sighed loudly and said, "Oh, it's really beyond my Chen Laoshi's surprise? Lantern riddles like this are the simplest and ordinary lantern riddles in our hometown of Suzhou Prefecture. Can't half a scholar be found in the capital?"

As soon as this guy said this, it immediately aroused the anger of the public. Many talented men raised their sleeves and prepared to come forward and beat him up. Unexpectedly, Chen Laoshi sighed again and said, "If you want to fight, just fight? I, Chen Laoshi, originally wanted to come to the capital to see the talented man, Junyan, but I didn't expect that this would disappoint me. Even if I live in this state, what would it feel like?"

Such words suppressed the impulse of the young people. Many people said that no matter what, they must solve all the answers.

Of course, Chen Hushi's wealth continued to roll in. I saw that in more than half an hour, nearly a thousand taels of silver had been earned, but the riddles solved were less than one in ten.

I'm too lazy to go up and solve it, and I'm not good at solving such literary ancient riddles. However, Bai Shixing was curious and spent a few taels of silver, but he ended up in a mess.

"Shixing, wait until his money is over, how about we collect taxes?" I laughed sinisterly. How could I not pay taxes if I make money? What would you let me eat?

At this moment, a delicate voice suddenly came from beside me: "Miss, why don't you solve a few riddles? With your means, you can't get it right?"

"Xi'er, don't talk nonsense. There are so many talents who have come up with them, but I haven't solved much. I am a woman, so how can I solve riddles?" The voice was soft and gentle, and it sounded very nice.

However, she called her girl Xier, but she couldn't help but make me laugh unnaturally. Damn, the Queen played role-playing with me, and also called me Xier.

I turned sideways and secretly glanced at the master and servant. What caught my eye was a simple-dressed girl with a tall and slim body. She had no precious accessories all over her body. She looked like a little beautiful and beautiful. She looked a little bit like a beautiful woman, but she seemed not easy to repair, her face was clean, and she couldn't find any rouge powder. Next to her was a little girl of sixteen or seventeen, who was also very charming and pursed, saying, "Look at Xier, those so-called talented men are not very good. The disgusting guy who claimed to be the number one talented men in the capital last time had not yet met the couplets of the lady? In my opinion, the title of the number one talented men in the capital is for the lady."

"Xi'er doesn't mean anything. Just a fictional reputation, what do you do?" The lady frowned slightly and blamed her slightly: "If you listen to someone, you will inevitably cause trouble. If you knew it, you wouldn't listen to you. If you had known it, you wouldn't listen to you. You would say that the lantern would be fun. In fact, it's so boring. It's better to play the piano music at home."

"Miss, this lantern festival is not fun? If you are stuck at home like you, you will get sick. The master doesn't often say, "Do you want to go out and walk more?" Look at it, your body is so weak, so you should go out and play more, so that's what it means to be like."

"Cough, cough. Xier, I'm a little tired. Let's go back?" The lady coughed lightly, and a trace of tiredness appeared on her face, and her brows frowned slightly.

However, the faint tired look made me stunned. I felt a little painful for no reason. I seemed to want to hold her in my arms and give her strong protection.

"Miss, I finally came out, so I can't just leave like this, right? Why don't we go to the bridge to set the lights? I heard that as long as the lantern is lit, then put it in the water, let it float and float, you can realize your wish." Xier jumped and was full of energy, but she was a little reluctant to go back.

"You have many ideas." The lady forced a smile and replied: "Okay, after putting on the lanterns, I must go back."

Seeing that they were about to leave as they said, I hurriedly shouted, "Please stay, two ladies."

The lady was stunned, frowned slightly, and looked at me and said, "Young Master, are you calling me?"

"Miss, please dodge a little." Xier was not so easy to talk to. She stretched out her hands and blocked her lady's face, and said with a angrily look on her face: "Die Ding, if you don't die, don't blame me for reporting to the official."
