Obviously, no one believes that Pei Ziyun is a representative of an individual. If you buy an official or even ask a test question, it is not worth the number.
The eldest princess stretched out her fingers and tapped the table, hesitating a little, and did some minor matters when they were irrelevant. However, even if she was involved in the major affairs of the court, even if she was in trouble, His Majesty would be furious.
The emperor's grace is the foundation of himself. Otherwise, it depends on the emperor's grandson, a prince, who does not have too many holy relatives, and he can only make an exaggeration in his life, but he will not be allowed to interfere in politics.
"Mom, when will I go to see the Lantern Festival this year? I said I took me to see it last year, but I didn't accompany me in the palace. I'm not allowed to cheat this year." A girl's voice sounded, and then a fifteen-year-old girl came in and pulled the eldest princess and said coquettishly.
The eldest princess saw her youngest daughter acting like a spoiled child, and then laughed: "Good daughter, you guy, I'm not thinking about going to the palace more for you, how can you have the favor of your uncle and be rich and frugal."
"I'm not, I'm not. You must accompany me this year, and you must accompany me this year." The girl couldn't stop her from acting cute, so the eldest princess had to agree: "Okay, okay, I'll accompany you."
The little girl stepped forward and kissed the eldest princess on the face: "Thank you, mom."
The eldest princess stretched out a finger and pointed it on her forehead: "You guy is just naughty."
Then he pondered for a moment before instructing the housekeeper: "You go and prepare the post, post it to Pei Ziyun, let him participate in the lantern festival together, and share my daughter's worries and boredom."
"Yes!" the housekeeper replied, knowing it clearly. He had to ask in person.
Pei Ziyun left the princess's mansion and did not go home directly. She went to the money house and found a money house. It looked like the storefront was not big, but the courtyard was large. After entering the money shop, she said, "I have gold, exchange for silver notes."
The shopkeeper stretched out his head and said, "Take it and take a look!"
"That's it." Pei Ziyun threw a gold bar on it, and the shopkeeper took it. The expert looked at it carefully again and said, "According to the rules, you have to cut it open."
"cut!"
After cutting it open and looking at it, the shopkeeper said, "Cheng Jiuqi, ten taels."
"Ninety-eight!"
"I know it's 98, and it's the rule of the money house." The shopkeeper raised his head and said, "You are a juren, but the whole world is like this. I haven't bullied you."
"Okay, exchange it for silver notes."
"Don't pay 98 yuan of official silver for one hundred and ten taels."
By the way, Pei Ziyun tried to go into the water and continued to go to another house. From noon to afternoon, he asked about the situation of the money house.
After eating something, I went back. It was almost dusk. At the door, I saw a servant holding an invitation. As soon as I saw Pei Ziyun, I stepped forward: "Young Master, this is an invitation from the Lantern Festival."
The servant was dressed gorgeously, respectful, very polite, and had a hint of Confucianism. He seemed to be a student and had taken the post, and the post was very gorgeous.
Pei Ziyun took the post and was thinking about asking himself to attend the lantern festival to make sure things happen?
The Lantern Festival is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month every year, which is one of the most important festivals. Kyoto is decorated with lanterns everywhere. The royal family, government, civil groups and individuals have invested in the construction of large lantern festival decorations such as light wheels, lighthouses, lighthouses, and light trees to help them liven up.
In addition to traditional riddle guessing, the Chamber of Commerce also organized dragon lantern playing, lion dancing, gods and ghost parades, stilt walking, and Taiping drum performances to promote this carnival atmosphere.
I heard that even the emperor took his concubines to the Chengtian Gate to watch the grand scene of the lantern festivals in the city. These are memories of the past life.
Since he had to go to this lantern festival, he had to be prepared. Pei Ziyun thought, and then quit the ox cart and moved the four boxes in and put them in. After lit the candle, he pondered that it was impossible to fight the martial arts, and it was very likely to be a literary test.
As I was grinding, I suddenly heard a sound outside the yard. I frowned and someone attacked me. I took the sword and looked at the door.
There was a sneaky man outside climbing over the wall. Pei Ziyun held his breath and looked at it. The man crawled inward on the wall, sneaking and seeing the light inside, he moved less.
"Thief?" The thief secretly touched the house. When he got close, he poked the window paper with his fingers. He wanted to see the situation in the room. As soon as Pei Ziyun opened the door, the man fell into the room and looked like he was under the light.
It turned out to be Zhang Cheng, Pei Ziyun sneered: "I don't accept it during the day and enter the Juren's mansion at night. Do you know that this is a serious crime? You sell 450 taels of silver in the house. I just need to sue you, and you will not leave any left. Do you believe it?"
Listening to Pei Ziyun's words, Zhang Cheng was still unwilling to accept and shouted: "Why, this is my house."
Pei Ziyun was also the first time he saw this kind of rascal, and he was secretly scared: "I'm so lucky. He's just here now. If I go out and he's coming early, wouldn't he be discovered again?"
"This kind of slut must be cured."
Thinking of it, he asked someone to report to the official and handed the post to the juren. Not long after, a headmaster came.
When the headmaster came, Zhang Chengcai was a little afraid. Usually, the yamen runners came. Zhang Cheng met a few yamen runners. He thought that the matter was not big, but he didn't expect that the headmaster would kiss him, so he was a little scared.
Pei Ziyun came forward to explain the matter, and said disgustedly: "You have to treat this kind of thug, at least you can't let him disturb me, I will try it."
As he said that, he threw five taels of silver. The headmaster heard that the thug sold the house the day before yesterday and received the reward of the silver, and then smiled grimly: "Don't worry, I will cure him honestly."
As he said that, he dragged Zhang Cheng away. Only then did Zhang Cheng realize that something was wrong and screamed, one after another. The headmaster was impatient and hit him one foot.
"Ah!" Zhang Cheng screamed in pain, and his face immediately swollen.
Looking at this, Pei Ziyun sneered. If it was estimated that it was good, this Zhang Cheng Wuan was just released after suffering a little. With these hundreds of taels of silver, those who were good would have to peel off the skin. If they were not good, they would be beaten to death and the money would be given to these yamen runners in private.
This is the end of money exceeding identity in this kind of society.
If he was not greedy, it would be fine, and now he would be killed.
When he returned to the room, Pei Ziyun checked the gold. During the day, the man sneaked in. The two thousand taels of gold must have been exposed. But now he went to the money shop to exchange silver. Maybe the princess will investigate, or wait, but the gold is hidden.
These days pass in the blink of an eye. On the Lantern Festival, I heard the sound of firecrackers outside early, and it was quiet since Zhang Cheng was sent to the official.
Someone came to knock on the door, and a guard knocked on the door with a wolf mask: "Young Master, I have invited you to change the appointment tonight, and I want to use this mask."
Pei Ziyun was a little confused. The guard handed over the invitation. As soon as he was before, Pei Ziyun gave up the question, but saw a pig-head mask handing over.
This mask is a pig mask, very delicate, as if it was made by a woman in graffiti. She couldn't help but smile and took the mask and put it on.
With the sound of firecrackers outside, every household arranged lanterns, and all the lanterns were gone. Many people were wearing masks and preparing to go out.
The guards were in front and Pei Ziyun was behind, and they squeezed into the crowd.
There were masks everywhere, both men and women, and there were many lanterns on the roadside. Scholars guessed riddles, while some small vendors sold colorful lanterns, which was very lively.
The wolf guard continued to move forward and soon met a group of people. A woman was wearing a girl, wearing a mask, Chang'e, and a cute fairy. The two were facing a very beautiful lantern and thinking hard to guess riddles.
Pei Ziyun saw that the people around him were covered with wolf masks, and he looked like he was having fun, but in fact he was protecting him, and he felt a little shocked.
The wolf guard who was accompanying him came forward and followed a wolf mask and said a few words. As if he had seen his wife say a few words, the guard came over: "Prince Pei, please, your wife, please come forward and talk."
When Pei Ziyun heard this, he understood that the lady was the eldest princess and stepped forward: "Pei Ziyun, Jieyuan, Xiazhou, meet the eldest... Mrs.."
Chang'e's mask was lifelike, as if it was painted by someone. When she saw Pei Ziyun approaching, she said through the mask: "I can't guess this riddle of mine, come and guess it for me."
"This is really a secret. I just call people when I meet!" Pei Ziyun secretly complained, and as the princess looked over his finger, there was a riddle written on the octagonal lantern: "Half drunk and half awake for half the night"
When Pei Ziyun saw this, he accepted the talent of several Jinshi, and blurted out without thinking: "Third thinking, three measurements and three levels of understanding."
An old man came out and smiled: "Congratulations, the young master, for guessing it correctly, this lamp belongs to you."
As he said that, he handed the lamp up, and the girl on the side of the lady laughed and took the lantern over and happily kept it.
The woman Chang'e couldn't see her expression clearly at this time, and she smiled in her words: "Pei Jieyuan, you are indeed a little talented, but you offered a heavy gift, what do you want?"
The woman Chang'e asked with her fingers and gently lit the remaining lanterns.
After listening to this, Pei Ziyun realized that the eldest princess was worried about what it was because she had given too much gold and the other party was worried about what she was asking for.
I still have no experience and don’t know the right way. After hearing Mr. Ji say that he has a lot of money, I don’t want to give him a thousand taels of gold. I’m afraid the other party thinks he wants to get involved in political affairs.
After a moment of silence, he smiled: "Madam, I don't ask for much, and I don't want to take the exam or become an official. I entered the Tao and wanted to recommend the master of our sect to become the true king. The governor has already received a memorial and handed over to Mr. Ji, and I hope that the wife can help her."
Listening to Pei Ziyun's words, the eldest princess smiled. It turned out that this was the matter. If the reward was a living person's title, especially a Shijiao, he could not speak, but to the gods, it was simple and troublesome. However, as long as it was a regular sacrifice and an official gave it to him, he could speak. This was not a big deal. In fact, if there were 600 taels of gold, he could agree.
The eldest princess pondered for a moment before smiling: "This can be considered, but a simple promise cannot be done. I heard that you have great talent. You can write a poem with this lantern festival. If I satisfy me, it will be a small matter."
Listening to the words of the eldest princess, Pei Ziyun laughed. At this moment, someone danced a dragon. The dragon was red and shining under the reflection of the surrounding lanterns.
Fireworks on the Plaza Avenue in the distance, and clusters of silver lights flashed. Not far away, there were fairies and fairy masks performing forward.
Pei Ziyun pointed and said, "What's the difficulty? I can do it in three steps."
He walked three steps and chanted: "The east wind bloomed at night, thousands of flowers and trees. It blew down even further, and the stars were like rain. The BMW carving car was full of fragrance. The sound of the phoenix flute moved, the jade pot turned, and the fish and dragon danced overnight."
"The moths are golden wisps of snow and willows. The smiles are filled with fragrance. I look for him in the crowd. When I look back, I am in the dim light."
Pei Ziyun pointed at the last point, Chang'e and the fairy-shaped two in the dim light. As soon as this word came out, the eldest princess of Chang'e's mask choked up in an instant and did not make a sound. It seemed as if she saw the deceased prince-consort looking at her. She was confused at the moment. After a long silence, she said: "Three steps have become this ultimate word. Today I realize that there are really gods and humans!"
"You take off your mask and have the right to let me remember you." The eldest princess paused for a while and said.
Chapter completed!
