Chapter 60: Last Night's Stars and Last Night's Wind
Li Yuanshu and Li Lizhi only took a sip of red wine, and wonderful expressions appeared on their faces.
"Wow, is this wine? How come I have never drunk such a delicious wine!"
"It tastes sweet, and it's true! It's completely different from any wine I've seen before!"
The two were full of praise.
Li Lizhi took the initiative to raise the quilt and clinked glasses with Du He: "Du He, come on, Chelsea!"
Du He had no choice but to put down his chopsticks and take a sip with the little beauty.
Li Yuanshu asked curiously: "What does Chelsea mean?"
Du He laughed and said: "This is a Western dialect, which means cheers."
Just now, Du He blurted out this word on a whim, but he didn't know that Li Lizhi actually learned it.
Li Yuanshu frowned: "Where is this Western Ocean located? Why have I never heard my father mention it?"
Based on the current world geography knowledge of the Tang Dynasty, there is Japan in the east, Goguryeo in the northeast, Turks and Tubo in the northwest, and far west is Persia. As for places further away, no one knows.
This was the first time Li Yuanshu heard about Western countries, but she had heard about Nanyang occasionally.
Du He explained patiently: "The west of the Tang Dynasty is collectively called the Western Regions. In this area of the Western Regions, there are dozens of countries, large and small, or dozens more. Further west, there is Persia. In fact, the real name of Persia is Rome.
, starting from here and going west, there is a vast territory. These places are collectively called the Western Regions. The Western Regions look completely different from the people of the Tang Dynasty, and even different from the Persians. They have golden hair and white skin, the most typical
The thing is that many people are born with a hooked nose, shaped like an eagle's nose... Some people's eyes are even blue or dark green, not all of them are black like ours. On a continent south of the Western Ocean,
There are countless black people living there, which is the Kunnu Wheel that appeared in Chang'an City. The whole body, except for the teeth, is black, like black charcoal, which is very interesting..."
Seeing the beauties looking at him without blinking, Du He became interested and started chatting enthusiastically.
Li Yuanshu looked at Du He with her hands on her chin, and suddenly realized that she was facing the vast starry sky in front of Du He.
How come this guy has his own light?
Li Lizhi applauded directly and said happily: "Wow, Du He, you are so awesome. How come you know everything? You are much better than the gentleman from Hongwen Hall."
Du He chuckled and said, "Of course, do you know that this young master has a nickname?"
"What?"
Li Lizhi and Li Yuanshu asked in unison, very curious.
Du He said pretentiously: "I am called Du Banxian. I know half of the things in heaven and everything on earth."
Li Yuanshu: "..."
Li Lizhi: "..."
This was obviously bragging, and both beauties expressed disbelief.
Du He touched his nose awkwardly, picked up the cup, and said, "Here, cheers!"
Li Lizhi smiled and said, "Cheers is so nice, Cheers is so boring, and Western dialect seems to be nice too."
Du He was speechless.
Unexpectedly, at such a young age, Li Lizhi had a tendency to worship foreign countries.
Such signs must never appear.
Just when Du He was about to find a topic to talk about, Li Lizhi grabbed Du He's sleeve and said enthusiastically: "Du He, you must know a lot of Western words, right?"
Du He nodded.
Li Lizhi grabbed his arm, shook it affectionately, and said coquettishly: "Then can you ask us to learn a few words of Western dialect?"
Du He shook his head: "What's so good about learning Western dialect? If you ask me, the Mandarin of the Tang Dynasty is more interesting."
Du He was forced to learn English for more than ten years in his previous life, and he already had a psychological shadow on this stuff.
However, Li Lizhi will act coquettishly if she can't stand it.
Du He finally had no choice but to say: "Okay, then I will teach you a few simple words!"
"That's great, Du He, you're so kind..." Li Lizhi got her wish, she was so happy and so happy that even a piece of solid ice could be melted by her.
"Ahem..."
Du He cleared his throat and said seriously: "Learn from me. The first sentence is, Gude touches you!"
"Tinker... oh, Du He, how bad are you? You actually took advantage of this princess. I'm not done with you!" Before Li Lizhi could finish speaking, she suddenly blushed, put her hands on her hips, and stared angrily.
Duhe.
Du He was a little speechless: "Where are you thinking? I...I won't touch you. This is Western dialect, which means good morning!"
"You...are you sure you're not lying?"
Du He raised his right hand: "I swear!"
"Okay then, Gude touches you, Gude touches you, I remember it, let's learn the next one!"
"Good afternoon, good night, I'm glad you did."
"Great, Goode."
…
Not to mention Li Lizhi, even Li Yuanshu, who had always been a bit reserved, became interested. The two of them followed Du He and learned a dozen Western sentences in a short time.
Not to mention, the two of them have very strong learning abilities, and they only had to read it a few times before they memorized it all.
This memory is not even comparable to Du He's.
By the time I finished learning Western, the food on the table was already cold.
But in such a happy atmosphere, no one was in the mood to use chopsticks.
A bottle of red wine has also bottomed out.
After drinking the last glass of wine, the beauties' faces were as red as red cherries, and Du He wanted to take a bite.
Du He stood up and shook his head: "Two princesses, it's getting late, Goodbye."
Du He turned to leave, but heard Li Yuanshu suddenly say: "Du He, stay."
Du He turned around and was stunned.
Li Yuanshu stepped forward and said a little shyly: "Du He, many people in the palace are discussing that your poems can surpass the Tang Dynasty. Can you leave a poem for me and Li Zhi to watch?"
Li Lizhi also ran over in a hurry: "Yes, Du He, they all say that you are a great talent, but I don't believe it, unless you write a poem for your sister."
Du He laughed and said: "What's so difficult about this!"
As he spoke, he took out his signature pen, took out the paper, lay on the table, and swished away, and in a short time, a poem was written.
After finishing writing, Du He held it up with both hands and read by candlelight:
Last night’s stars and last night’s wind,
To the west of the painting building is to the east of Guitang;
There are no colorful phoenix wings in my body,
Minds think alike;
Separate seats are provided with wine and wine to warm you up.
The divided cao is covered with wax and the lamp is red;
Sighing, I listened to the drum and went to answer the official's request,
Zao Malantai type of turret.
This poem is a masterpiece by Li Shangyin. Du He wrote it all down on a whim and gave it to Li Yuanshu as a gift.
Du He's voice disappeared for a long time, and both Li Yuanshu and Li Lizhi were immersed in the atmosphere of this poem.
The two of them have read poetry and books since childhood, so they can naturally understand the charm of this poem.
When the two of them came to their senses and looked up, Du He had already disappeared, leaving only half of the paper on the table.
Li Yuanshu hurriedly stepped forward, held the song "Untitled" in her hands, and looked at the direction Du He was leaving, lost in thought for a moment.
