Chapter 194: The Flying Incident
'Hmm!' The house leak happened to rain overnight', it sounds like the top of a poem! ”
Li Ke frowned and said, "Literally, this sentence means that the house is leaking, but it just caught up with the rain overnight." Misfortune is not a one-way street, I'm afraid that's what I'm talking about. And from a deeper meaning, it means that this is bad enough, but it happens to be a bigger blow that adds fuel to the fire. Colloquialism, colloquialism...... It seems that this puzzle has something to do with this deep meaning......"
The house leak happened to rain overnight, and the ship was late and encountered a head wind.
This full sentence is from Feng Menglong's "Warning Words of the World" based on Tang Dufu's "Song of the Thatched House Broken by the Autumn Wind", but now in this dynasty, Du Fu has not been born, and Feng Menglong is a person from the late Ming Dynasty, so this sentence has never appeared in the Tang Dynasty.
With Li Ke's ability, it is already good to be able to understand the literal meaning of such a sentence.
"It's a 'broken house'!"
Just when Li Ke started his analysis, Princess Changle already had an answer.
"Oh? Why? ”
Li Yuanba replied in surprise, looking at the niece in front of him with interest, who was obviously much more mature than the other younger siblings.
Princess Li Lizhi of Changle lives up to the name of beauty, not only tall, but also an absolute beauty, she smiled slightly, and said lightly with red lips:
The literal meaning of this sentence is exactly what the third brother said. It is about a person who was originally in a bad situation, but he suffered a greater blow or misfortune, which made his own situation more difficult. ”
Seeing that everyone bowed their heads in unison, Princess Changle continued: "Here, the house represents the portal, and the words with the meaning of 'leak' are nothing more than broken and broken...... And the house is leaking, which means that the portal is broken. The 'rain' below refers to rain, and rain is also called falling rain. It's so connected. Isn't this mystery just 'breaking the house'? ”
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
Li Yuanba clapped his palms and praised: "Who said that women are inferior to men? Isn't beauty a good interpretation, and women can also be both virtuous and artistic? “
"Thank you Uncle Four Emperors for the compliment!"
Princess Changle replied with a blushing face. Very shy.
Li Ke said a little depressedly: "Fifth sister, don't be modest!" Among our brothers and sisters. It is estimated that only you and the royal brother can guess the answer to the riddle. I'm afraid that when the green finch arrives here, I wouldn't have thought that the mystery turned out to be this! ”
"Yo, I can't guess the answer to the riddle, you're quite reasonable!" Li Yuanba looked at Li Ke and said: "Don't say that Uncle won't give you a chance today, or this sentence 'The house leak coincides with the overnight rain', as long as you can make the second half of the sentence, Uncle I will let the cooks in the house." Prepare a big meal for you! ”
"Really?"
When the bad boy Li Zhi heard the word eating, his eyes suddenly became bright and bright.
For the feast of Wuwang's Mansion, the little ones are all yearning for it, but don't forget, what stir-fried dishes, hot pot and braised iron lion head or something, but all of them flowed out of Li Yuanba's hands.
And the chefs of the Wuwang Mansion, who were taught by Li Yuanba, can they have two brushes?
Li Yuanba nodded Li Zhi's little head very unceremoniously, and said: "A manly man, it is difficult to chase after a horse!" ”
"Third brother, for this feast. You have to get the second half of the sentence right! ”
The little ones all started to drool, and they all looked at Li Ke, their big watery eyes blinking. It made Li Ke's heart furious.
Originally, Li Ke was still quite depressed, but at this moment, facing the expectations of his younger brothers and sisters, the self-confidence of this product suddenly exploded.
After walking back and forth twice under this high platform, Li Ke suddenly stopped and said, "Fourth uncle, do you think this is right?" ”
"You say!" Li Yuanba smiled and nodded.
"The house leak happened to rain overnight, and the ship broke and the wind was on the opposite side!" Li Ke said.
Li Yuanba was slightly stunned, lowered his head and thought about it: "The boat is against the house, and the leak is broken." Overnight rain against the opposing wind...... Its meaning is contrary to the meaning of the previous sentence, but it is barely neat! But ......"
"But what?" Li Ke hurriedly asked.
Li Yuanba looked at the eyes of the children with longing mixed with doubt. I couldn't help but laugh mischievously and said, "Hahaha." Never mind! You're barely getting through! ”
"Oh! Great, another big dinner in the evening! ”
"Fourth uncle, fourth uncle...... I want to eat braised pork, gluttonous duck ......"
"Fourth uncle, I want to eat braised iron lion head and call the chicken......"
Li Yuanba's voice fell, and a group of children chattered about what you said and I said.
To be honest, every time he sees this group of lively and active children, Li Yuanba will have an inexplicable joy.
Perhaps out of the blood and family affection that cannot be erased from this body, Li Yuanba does not reject this feeling of joy, on the contrary, he even enjoys it a little.
"Fourth Emperor Uncle, if you were the right one, what would you do?"
Just when a group of bear children were drooling one by one, immersed in the illusion of food, Li Lizhi suddenly said a word to Li Yuanba.
Li Yuanba turned his head to look at his smart niece and said, "Why do you say that?" ”
"I once heard my uncle say that many of the lantern riddles and couplets in this were all thought up by the fourth uncle, so my niece was thinking, did you come up with this sentence 'the house leak coincides with the overnight rain'?"
Princess Changle smiled shyly, and two cute little dimples bloomed on Princess Changle's pink cheeks.
Li Yuanba laughed and said, "You think well, this sentence is indeed what I came up with!" The original sentence is: The house leak happened to rain overnight, and the boat was late and encountered a head wind! ”
"The second half of the fourth uncle's sentence is much neater than the second half of the third brother's sentence!" Hearing Li Yuanba's words, Princess Changle's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Li Yuanba waved his hand and said: "Actually, they all mean the same thing, the difference is that I just changed a few words!" ”
"Smack!"
Princess Changle was about to speak, when suddenly a crisp slap came in, followed by a fierce quarrel, which sounded like in addition to the familiar Qin dialect, there was also a series of gurgling sounds, which made everyone upset for a while.
Li Yuanba frowned, and glanced at Cheng Fu next to him, wanting Cheng Fu and them to open a way so that they could go over and have a look together.
But he never thought that before Cheng Fu could move, he saw a figure flying in their direction, and if he didn't dodge, he would definitely hit Wu Shun's body.
Wu Shun was stunned, and his pretty face was full of incredulity.
Seeing that his future daughter-in-law was frightened, Li Yuanba's face suddenly sank, and he stepped forward in an instant, with his left foot behind him, his right foot arched forward, and his hands were lifted up like lightning, and the figure that flew over was smoothly held in his hand.
After that, his hands shook slightly, and he put the figure down.
Before Li Yuanba could ask what happened to the figure, the crowd in the direction that the figure flew over had already been separated by a road, and then a group of strangely dressed Fanbang people came rushing towards him.
There are about 30 people in this group, and the leader is a middle-aged man who is gorgeously dressed and looks no more than thirty years old, as for the others, looking at their dress, eighty percent are the subordinates or guards of this gorgeous middle-aged person.
"You caught this scumbag?"
The gorgeously dressed middle-aged man didn't speak, and a Fanbang escort standing beside him, speaking in a stiff Qin accent, scolded Li Yuanba and them.
That voice sounded extremely awkward to Li Yuanba and the others, and there was even an extremely arrogant emotion in it.
"Presumptuous, you dare to talk to my family like this, are you impatient?"
Cheng Fu, who was guarding Li Yuanba's side, raised his eyebrows, and scolded this group of Zifanbang aliens.
"Humph! We are the members of the Tibetan Mission, sent by our great Zangpu and Songtsen Gampo, to come to your Tang Dynasty to become friends with you! Speaking of this, the Tibetan guard paused, and continued to speak proudly:
"However, you Datang people are so unfriendly! Our lord just took a little bit of something from that despicable man, and he actually bit it on his back, and wanted me to give him money! He naively wants to take us to the official! Ridiculous, is this your Datang's hospitality? ”
Nima, I've really seen shameless, but I've never seen such a shameless person as this group of Tubo people!
If you forcibly take other people's things and don't give them money, they want to take you to the official theory, but you start beating people, and then you still don't give up on irrelevant people.
Do you really think that this is in your Tibet, in your own land?
Those guards of the Prince's Mansion, as well as the people of the 'Tianji Guard', all had a look of disgruntleness on their faces, and some even flushed their faces, if it wasn't for Li Yuanba not speaking, I am afraid that they would have rushed forward a long time ago and beat such an arrogant Fanbang person to death.
Li Yuanba did not speak, but quickly recalled in his mind all the information related to Tibet during the Tang Dynasty.
It is now 634, that is to say, Tubo has already defeated the surrounding Bailan Zhuqiang, although there are still Tuyuhun, Western Turk and Xue Yantuo and other surrounding, but its national strength is booming, it is an indisputable fact.
Yes, these guys who have a little bit of identity in Tubo are extremely arrogant in their words, and they even have a feeling that they don't even pay attention to Datang.
Moreover, this time the Tibetan delegation came to Datang, Li Yuanba knew about it, and even made various countermeasures in advance.
However, this kind of arrogant behavior of forcibly taking the people's property and beating the ordinary people was something that Li Yuanba did not expect at all.
He now regrets very much, why did he adopt a soft policy after receiving the letter of 'Tianjiwei', as long as he can, or Datang can show that he has to be tough, no matter how arrogant these Tibetan ambassadors are, they will never dare to fart with this! (To be continued)
