Chapter 405: Lantern Festival, Sense of Existence
Yufu
A middle-aged man fidgeted, nervous on his face.
This person is none other than Yu Xiu, and the existence of this person in charge of the weapons supervisor has left a lot of cold sweat behind him at this time.
Although there was some cold this winter, Yu Xiu didn't feel it at all, but there was a kind of torment in his heart.
"I didn't expect it to be planted this time."
Yu Xiu muttered softly with some discouragement, even he didn't know why this was so.
You must know that he personally watched the production of each batch, but after he arrived in the army, it became a defective product.
He is destined to be unable to escape from this pot, and he will definitely not be able to sit in this position.
Of course, what is more important is that if you say all this, you still can't believe it, and I'm afraid that exile will be light.
"No, you have to delay a little longer."
Yu Xiu's eyes flickered and he gritted his teeth and said, on the one hand, he didn't want to give up like this, maybe there was any hope.
On the other hand, he is just making some preparations for the future, in case he has an accident, and the mansion will be in chaos.
After thinking of this, Yu Xiu naturally thought of his brother Yu Zhining, hoping that he could help him in the love of incense.
......
No one knew about the affairs in the mansion, and a few days passed, and the day of the Lantern Festival came as scheduled.
"Are there any riddles ready for the rice balls?"
Shu An's eyes fell on Laifu and said, As for that matter, it has been handed over to Shu Maanhu.
After all, Laifu's responsibilities are more than a housekeeper, and more often than the situation of managing Shufu.
"Yes, the lord is ready."
Laifu said with a hint of affirmation on his face, with a hint of confidence in his words.
Shu An nodded, to know about the Lantern Festival this time, he didn't forget to come out and brush up on his sense of existence.
Last time, because I just returned to Chang'an, I didn't know what the Lantern Festival process was, so it was delayed.
And this year, it can play a role, at least increase the following influence.
You must know that during this period of idleness, Shu An can feel that his reputation has stagnated a little through the system.
There were even some small falls, which made Shu An have a sense of vigilance in his heart.
After all, now that the prestige is almost accumulated, Shu An naturally doesn't want to fall short and spend so much time.
Originally, he was not too interested in the Lantern Festival, but now he naturally can't let it go, nothing more than to prepare some rice balls for many people in Chang'an to try.
Of course, it is not so easy to taste, and it is also inseparable from the lantern riddles that belong to the Lantern Festival.
Although night has not yet fallen, Shu An has already opened Chang'an and started to publicize, and the street in front of Shufu is remote as soon as possible.
Even if there are a lot of people coming and going after Shu An's return, there is still a lot of gap between it and those bustling streets.
But Shu Anke is confident, and the street outside Shufu will definitely be the most lively place tonight.
In fact, just as Shu An thought, at this time there were already rumors in Chang'an about Shu An's Lantern Festival lantern riddles.
"Guessing riddles outside Shufu can eat glutinous rice balls."
"It is said that a single bowl of rice balls will be sold for ninety-nine wen in heaven and earth."
"Do we have a chance to eat this rice ball? What's more, An Xuangong's riddle is also exciting. ”
.....
A chattering voice sounded in Chang'an, but there was a hint of interest in the words.
There is an interest in the rice balls, and there is also an interest in the puzzles that Shu An came out, all in all, I am very much looking forward to tonight.
In fact, Shu An's actions also attracted the interest of many people, such as many disciples of Shu An, as well as Li Shimin in the court.
You must know that during the Lantern Festival season, even women can come out, and many princes and princesses in the palace will come out to see.
After all, there are not many opportunities for this kind, even Li Chengqian is no exception, you must know that now except for Li Tai, it is basically not so easy for the prince and princess to get out of the palace.
Li Shimin is no exception, but Li Shimin finally needs to go to the city wall and spend the Lantern Festival with the people of the city.
But before that, you can dress up ordinary people, and Li Shimin is still very interested in the lantern riddle Li Shimin from Ya's father.
"Your Majesty, there has been news just now, it is said that the person who guesses the most lantern riddles correctly will be able to get a pair of poems about the Lantern Festival from An Xuangong."
Just as Li Shimin's thoughts were flying, Wang De's respectful voice sounded beside him.
To know about An Xuangong, it is always not wrong to report it at the first time, and it is obvious that Wang De already has experience.
"Lantern Festival poems?"
Li Shimin's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, and said softly, Originally, this emperor had the intention to move, but now there is no need to say more.
In fact, it is not only this emperor who is tempted, but also many scholars in Chang'an at this time.
Even if An Xuangong's poems are not wanted by himself, then if he sells them, he can also gain a lot of money.
Even enough money to extravagant for a lifetime can be said to be a huge temptation for those poor scholars.
And for those children of the family, they also want to get it, as for the reason, it is very simple, that is, the fame of this An Xuangong is too great.
As a result, many people want to ask for a pair of ink treasures, even if they don't need it, if they give it to their elders, then they can also get rich rewards.
Before it got dark, a lot of people had gathered on the street outside the Shufu Gate, and the unopened couplets on the side near Shufu had been hung ready.
There were many stalls, which filled the entire street, and each of them had a guard standing on it.
And on top of each stall, there are portions of rice balls, in which the rice balls are placed in a steamer to ensure that they will not cool down due to the weather.
"Every time you guess a couplet, you get a small bowl of rice balls."
"You will also get a small wooden card, and finally when it is over, the wooden card will be handed over to the guards for statistics."
"In the end, I selected the first name of the lantern riddle before Shufu tonight, and got a copy of An Xuangong's poems."
Many people said that the rules are very simple and easy to understand.
Of course, there are many people who come for the glutinous rice balls, and you must know that the heavens and the earth are said to be inherited from Shufu.
Whatever is produced, it is definitely a mouth-watering food, but because of the price, many people can't try it.
Now that there is such an opportunity, as for the scholars who have gone to heaven and earth to try before, many people are also attracted by this glutinous rice ball.
It's just that even they can't digest too much of the price of ninety-nine Wen, and now that there is an opportunity to eat it for free, they will naturally not let it go.
It is under such circumstances that as night gradually falls, more and more people gather.
