Vol 2 Chapter 223: Lantern Festival

Originally, because I even asked several companies before and found no free room, thinking about the room that has not been settled yet, Jiucheng has a poor location or a narrow place.
I didn't want Sheng Sleeping Crane to go up and take a look for myself, and found that this elegant room is located on the third floor, facing Tianjie, which can be described as a conspicuous place. The furnishings are gorgeous, the floor is paved with nylon felt, wall-mounted calligraphy and painting, Yishui's yellow pear wood furniture, and secret-color porcelain.
Although the size of the elegant room is not enough to set up a few tables in it, the pedestrians of Shengjia are absolutely enough.
He looked satisfied and wondered: "Why can't anyone book this place?"
Xiao Xiao, who led him to come in with Sheng Xiang, explained with a smile: "It was originally ordered, but some time ago, something happened temporarily at the house over there, so I sent someone to cancel it. This is not the case. For the customers who are familiar with the small notice, the housekeeper came in and asked, and the shopkeeper asked the small to accompany you to come and see if it was still satisfactory. If not, the small would leave a message with the other. The guest said! "
"Here it is." Sheng Sleeping Crane nodded, and Sheng Xiang saw this, and threw his horn silver to the little sister, and said, "You quickly send someone to clean here again, but there are three young ladies in my family, all of whom are People who love cleanliness, these tables, chairs and bottles must be rubbed again! Then ask the kitchen to treat a table with good dishes, and the most famous drinks in your restaurant, although the good things are served ... Money rewards you! "
When he told the restaurant Xiao Sheng, Sheng Sleeping Crane had come downstairs and went to explain to the three Wei Sheng how to find Yajian, but because Yajian had to clean the restaurant again, he had to meet again. Go in.
Of course, it doesn't take long to wait, after all, the elegant room was actually cleaned up, and Sheng Xiang himself stared at it for a while, and it was just fine.
Sheng Sleeping Crane led the three people Sheng Weiqiao, took the maidservant and some of the guards to sit down in the room, the restaurant person first sent eight cold dishes, and there was a plate of carved fruits, saying that it was not for money, and it was for the early adopters of Sheng Weizhen .
"This store is generous. It's not cheap this time of the season." Sheng Weiqiao laughed when he saw it. "In the end, you are doing business in Tianjie, and it will come."
"Sister Three, look like there is a table?" Sheng Weiyi ate a cup of deer tendons because the children did n’t eat much, but he was not interested in Shiguo at this time, although Sheng Weiqiao deliberately pushed the plate containing Shiguo. In front of her, she turned and opened her eyes. She looked out with interest and saw the square facing the main entrance of the imperial city. There seemed to be a high platform with a few pillars around it. "Is it always there? Or is it for the Lantern Festival? Is there anyone going to sing at the conference?"
Their group did not walk from the high platform because of the location of the grand house and Tianjie. There is a little snow floating again today, because the high platform will not have any decorations because it has not yet been performed, and it is not luxurious and gorgeous. When walking on the street, even if I look at it occasionally, This misty weather may not be able to be found.
So it wasn't Sheng Weiyi that he would see him and didn't notice that there was a table there.
The Shenghe Crane looked at the probe and explained casually: "This dynasty seems to have the old custom. On the Lantern Festival night, the emperor will bring the concubines, kings, princesses and other ancestors to watch the lights on the main entrance. That's why the high platform rises. ? "
"Then we are fortunate to have an elegant room." The three girls were very glad when they heard the words. "Otherwise, the table will be surrounded by people, but it is not as convenient as watching here."
The group went on a gossip, eating cold dishes, and after passing the time, the sky dimmed, but the lights on the street were brighter for the second time.
The custom of having fun on the Lantern Festival has followed several dynasties. This dynasty followed the old rules. During the period, lanterns were put on during the night, and there was no curfew at night. It was the most lively time of the year in the country.
But tonight, in terms of prosperity, we still need to count Chang'an.
The twilight dawned, and Xiaoxue was on the top. I saw the downstairs sky street. First, there were stars. For a short moment, it was a mighty one, just like the galaxy in the sky. The lights were sparkling water on the galaxy. Light, the pedestrians are the surging tide in the river, and the magnificent emperor is ignited in that way.
Looking at it, it is dazzling and gorgeous, and there is a splendid splendor, sometimes there is a sound of fine music, fragrant mist, and the peace and wealth of the grand and magnificent. It is so wide-hearted that it is unexpected and unexpected. Comes with joy and satisfaction.
"There are many people below, Sister Three, let's go and see?" Sheng Weizhen kept lying on the window, watching the crowd gradually grow, and various lanterns were set out, just tempted, turned to beg Sheng Weiqiao, "The girl over there The hydrangea lanterns in it are very funny. Let's go and see where they are sold and buy a few! "
Sheng Weiqiao naturally agreed.
Seeing that she immediately got up and took Sheng Weiyi's hand, and invited Gongsun Yingjiang together, Sheng Shenghe was worried that she was blowing the night breeze even though her body was not fully healthy. In the end, she was afraid that forcibly blocking would make the girl angry, so she said, "I Come with you! "
Shengxiang was left to take a few servants to guard Yajian, and the four went downstairs.
As he was going down the stairs, someone whispered behind him, "Well, isn't this ...?"
Sheng Weiqiao heard this sound a little familiar, but because he was being pressed tightly by Sheng Weiyi, he was inconvenient to turn around, and the people behind him did not name their names, thinking that even the people they met may not be looking for themselves. So I ignored it and whispered that Sheng Weiyi carefully stepped down and took her downstairs.
The man behind him saw the situation, and when he got downstairs, he had to catch up and greet her: "Ms. Sheng San? It's a coincidence that I met here."
Sheng Weiqiao turned his head around and was surprised, busy leading Sheng Weiying and Gongsun Ying Jiang to salute: "Kingfang County Lord! Unknown County Lord is behind, it is really rude!"
The county lord today wore a purple dress, swayed his heart, and slanted two beaded pearls. The face without fat powder had a somewhat pale appearance, which seemed very low-key, and he brought two servants around him. After seeing them owe their feet, they took a step forward, reached out, and shouted, "Why be so kind?"
Just ask, "Are you planning to go out and watch the lights?"
Sheng Weiqiao knew that she had greeted herself mostly to Sheng Sleeping Crane, so she didn't know how to answer?
I was afraid that the Lord of Gyeongfang would ask to be with them.
Although the county lord is also the daughter of King Gaomi, he is not the unlovable and embarrassing clan maid of Deping County. He is the eldest daughter of the couple of Gaomi and his husband's family should not be underestimated. Sheng Weiqiao does not How dare to reject her directly.
But if I promised, not to mention Sheng Sleeping Crane ’s life, in fact, it is not clear until now, and now I have been in close contact with the people on the side of King Gaomi. If I find something wrong afterwards, how do I end it? Eyes telling people to find Sheng Sleeping Crane and Gaomi King ’s lover's lantern festival, what would Meng think?
Fortunately, when she was hesitant, Sheng Sleeping Crane gave a faint response, the Qingfang County Lord looked at him and wanted to talk to him, but hesitated for a while, and said with a smile: "I won't delay you Come on! "
Sheng Weiqiao breathed a sigh of relief, and led Sheng Weiyi to take a few steps. While Sheng Weiyi and Gongsun Yingjiang were both attracted by a series of three-glass, five-glass hibiscus colored lanterns on the roadside, he whispered to Sheng Sleeping Crane: "That Qingfang The sheriff ... was here to see you? "
"Who knows?" Sheng sleeping crane smiled lightly. "Anyway, here is a city full of people looking at the lamp. The best place is to be near the restaurants behind you. Now, when you meet a dignitarian in three or five steps, you are just sitting idle. thing."
This statement also makes sense. At this time, Sheng Weizheng fancyed the white elephant lamp a little further and pulled Sheng Weiqiao's skirt to go forward. Sheng Weiqiao patronized her to slow down, lest the lights in the night be glorious, his feet looked vaguely and tripped on. I fell.
Such an interruption, I did not follow up, so I did not see Sheng Shenghe silently followed the three of them, his face was calm, but his eyes were icy, inconsistent with the hustle and bustle of the city of lights.
Sheng Weiqiao and others who did not notice the abnormality of Sheng Sleeping Crane were amazed by the liveliness of the lantern market: colorful lanterns in various forms and textures, including paper, bamboo, silk, silk, glass, Mingwa, shofar, snails, mussels, feathers, stamps Gauze, silk, embroidery, sandalwood, ivory, gilt gold, brass; there are different styles; door lights, lamp plaques, flower lanterns, palace lights, lanterns, stamp lights, handle lights, wind lights, square flat white Yarn lamp, glass panicle lamp, hydrangea lamp, screen lamp, water lamp, spoonbill bird poultry lamp, golden lotus lamp, jade house lamp, lotus lamp, hibiscus lamp, snowflake lamp, showman lamp, wife lamp, ape lamp, crab lamp, catfish The lights and camels are dazzling; on the location of the store, in addition to the high and low hangings on the stalls in the store, the roadside trees and flowers such as willows, apricots and other trees this season are tied with grass, silk, silk, silk, paper The lifelike flowers are sticky according to the situation, and there are lotuses, cormorants, herons, and cormorants in the pond. They are filled with lights and compete with each other. They are bright inside and out, lined with light snow, looking like a glass world. .
Pedestrians rubbing their shoulders, all dressed brightly and rejoicing. Among them are women with strong makeup and colorful makeup, in groups of three or five, who laugh or pass by small and delicate lanterns.
Seeing Sheng Lihe's beautiful appearance, she is still young, and she came boldly and stuffed a hibiscus lamp into his hand. The hibiscus lamp was not the size of a palm, and there was a red candle in it. But Sheng Sheng is exquisite in workmanship, shaped like a hibiscus flower in full bloom, a little candlelight in the center is used as a flower stamen, and a pole of a pink lantern is tied to the pole of the lantern, faintly revealing the fragrance of fat powder.
According to Sheng Suhe ’s original alert, he should n’t be stuffed into his hands so easily, but because of some things he just got a little lost, and the woman who came here to stop the lamp for him was not malicious, so Sheng Sleeping Crane subconsciously caught the light before returning to God.
But seeing that the woman threw a wink at herself, did not entangle, caught up with her companion with a skirt, and smiled into the crowd.
"Brother, please open this box and look at it!" Sheng Weiqiao looked at the scene beside him, his mood was a bit complicated, but he still smiled and said, "Bacheng is the lady who fancy you. Maybe it is" Yue Shangliu " Tip, what about the hour and place after dusk? "
"Who is the woman you are a talented person?" Sheng Sleeping He heard the words, smiled indifferently, threw the lamp to the ground, wiped his hands from the sleeve, calmly said, "The predecessor wrote The poem in "" has the phrase "you are all prostitutes, and the songs are all in full [note 2]". I remember that a few days ago you advised me to concentrate on my studies. Why do you want me to go to the wind and the moon again today? have they gone?"
"..." Sheng Weiqiao felt embarrassed, and was about to change the subject, but saw the crowd burst into excitement. Then, the tide rushed towards the imperial city. She and Sheng Weizhen were blocked by the guards, and Sheng Sleeping Crane helped again. I was almost overthrown, and I was astonished, but I heard someone shouting in excitement, "Heaven is about to reach the gate of the city, and one hundred plays are about to begin!"
