Princess of the Past and Present
Chapter 51 Lantern Festival: Lantern Festival
The two walked to the stone steps by the river, and there was a pair of young men and women setting off lanterns beside them.Mu Jin bent down and placed the lantern on the river, letting it float away with the slowly flowing river.
The two stood on the bank of the river and watched the lanterns drifting farther and farther away. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew and swayed on the water. The lantern was blown over, the candles were extinguished, and the overturned lantern slowly sank.
Mu Jin's heart skipped a beat, remembering what the woman said just now, the farther the lantern floated, the longer the two of them spent together. Looking at the slowly sinking lantern, she felt inexplicably uneasy.
Mu Jin was a little anxious, "The one just now doesn't count, let's go buy a new one, it was windy just now."
Mo Shuang held his hand and said softly, "The so-called rumors are all fabricated by the common people, how can they be taken seriously."
"Even if it's fake, it doesn't matter. I'll buy another one. You wait here." Mu Jin hurriedly bought another one, wrote his name on it, and held it in his hand, silently hoping that it would follow along with him. The river kept drifting into the sea.Feeling apprehensive, he placed the lantern in his hand on the river.
Watching the lantern go away, the string in Mu Jin's heart tightened, for fear that the lantern would go out again.
Seeing his tense expression, Mo Shuang said, "Let's go ahead and have a look."
Mu Jin looked at the lantern with some reluctance, and continued walking with Mo Shuang.
Not long after they left, when the lantern floated under the bridge, a child on the bridge threw down the uneaten pastry, hit the lantern, the candle went out, and the lantern was also sunk.
The words Mu Jin and Mo Shuang gradually faded in the water.
Going forward, there is a corridor built along the river. Various lanterns are hung on the corridor, and a piece of paper is pasted on the lantern. The paper is a lantern riddle.
The lanterns were managed by two scholars, who originally sold calligraphy and paintings, but today coincided with the Lantern Festival, so they came to start a lantern riddle business.Everyone only needs to spend one penny to guess once, and if they guess correctly, they can take the lantern away;
This lantern is not so easy to take away. The riddles on the lantern are not simple, and it takes some effort to guess them.
Mu Jin and Mo Shuang walked to a lantern, on which was written: Self-care is not easy, some people have mountains, mountains can stand upright, and can hold up half the sky. — type a word.
After Mu Jin finished reading, the corners of his lips curled up, "Do you like this lantern?"
"Your Highness has the answer?"
"If you like it, I will try it. If you don't like it, why waste that penny."
Mo Shuang chuckled, "If you can take it off, I will."
"That's good." Mu Jin looked at the steward not far away, and beckoned him to come over.
The middle-aged scholar bowed his body and said, "What are your orders, my lord?"
Mu Jin took out an ingot of broken silver and handed it to him, pointing to the lantern riddle on the lantern and said: "In the previous sentence, some people also have mountains. It should be a fairy character, but the mountains stand upright and can hold up half the sky. Men and women in the world are half the sky." , down the mountain, it is a woman character. I said, right?"
The middle-aged scholar smiled, "My lord is smart, the answer to this riddle is correct."
Mu Jin smiled and looked at Mo Shuang without saying a word, as if waiting for Mo Shuang to praise him.
The middle-aged scholar hurriedly stood on tiptoe to take off the lantern, "My lord, this lantern belongs to you."
Mu Jin took it, handed it to Mo Shuang, and said to the middle-aged scholar, "How many times can you guess the money I just gave you?"
The middle-aged scholar said: "My son just gave you one tael of silver, you can guess a thousand times."
Mu Jin continued to guess the lantern riddles, walked to the second lantern, raised his head and looked at the paper on the lantern: two three four five six seven*—type four words.
Mu Jin studied the details for a long time, but he couldn't see anything wrong with these numbers.Mo Shuang said: "Your Highness, have you thought of it?"
"No, can you see it?"
"I just saw that something was missing."
After he mentioned this point, Mu Jin suddenly realized, "The beginning and the end are missing ten, and the homonym is lack of food and clothing."
Mu Jin couldn't wait to look at the middle-aged scholar behind him, "I don't know if this answer is right."
The middle-aged scholar smiled, "Master guessed right." Just as he was about to take down the lantern, Mo Shuang stopped him and said, "This lantern still looks good hanging, let it stay here."
Mu Jin went to the next lantern: when drawing, it is round, when writing, it is square, warm with it, cool without it.
Mu Jin looked at the dozen or so words, thinking to himself, thinking silently in his heart, drawing circles, writing squares, warm with them, cool without them...
After thinking about it, Mu Jin looked at Mo Shuang, "Could it be a word of fire?"
Mo Shuang shook her head, "The latter two sentences are quite suitable, but the first two sentences are round when drawing and square when writing, which is not suitable."
"Then I'll think about it."
Mo Shuang saw him thinking hard, and a faint smile appeared on his lips. He already knew the answer in his heart, but he had been waiting for him to figure it out.
After a long time, Mu Jin shook his head, "I can't think of it, but have you thought of it?"
"Don't think about it anymore?"
"I've thought about everything I should think about, but I really don't know what it is."
Mo Shuang said to the middle-aged scholar beside him, "Can I borrow a pen and ink from Mr. Xiang?"
"My lord, wait a moment, I'll get it here next time." The middle-aged scholar brought a pen and paper with a book as a pad, and Mo Shuang wrote the word '日' on the paper with the pen.
The middle-aged scholar beside him said: "It's wonderful!"
Mu Jin chuckled, "So it's such a word, it made me think about it for a long time."
Mo Shuang said: "If you think about it again, maybe you will figure it out."
At this time, on the other side of the river, a man in a blue robe looked straight at Mo Shuang. Since Mo Shuang asked the scholar to fetch the pen and paper just now, he glanced across the river and then moved away. Without looking away, he stood on the other side and stared at him blankly.
A sense of joy rose in my heart, I had never seen such a beautiful but gentle man like jade, my soul had already been seduced by [-]% to [-]%.
Looking across a river, he seemed not satisfied. At this moment, a painted boat passed by, and the young man in blue flew up, tapped his feet on the cabin roof of the boat, and finally flew into the long boat. in the corridor.
The young man in blue was acting so high-profile, which attracted many eyes and admiration. Mo Shuang and Mu Jin also looked back.
Mu Jin was also aware of the man's unusual gaze, and quickly grabbed Mo Shuang's shoulder, "Let's guess the next one."
Mo Shuang turned her head and looked at him, "You want to guess all the lantern riddles here today, so you are willing."
"They come, the security."
Mo Shuang followed Mu Jin to the next lantern without saying anything, and the young man in blue who was not far away saw their actions and felt disgusted by the man in purple next to Mo Shuang.
There are only two words on the next light: the first day of junior high school. ——Type an idiom.
Mu Jin thought for a while, then looked at Mo Shuang and said, "I thought of one, but have you thought of it?"
Mo Shuang pondered for a while, "The first day of the new month is the beginning of the new moon, and it can also be regarded as the end of the old moon. If you put it into an idiom, it should be changing with each passing day."
Mu Jin smiled, "Heroes see the same thing."
At this time, someone beside said: "Young master, please forgive me for disturbing you."
Mo Shuang looked at the man crossing his hands in front of him, who was the man in blue who had just flown over from the opposite bank, and said softly, "I don't know what advice I have?"
The young man in blue said: "I just fell in love with a lantern, but I really can't solve the lantern riddle. Seeing that you are knowledgeable and talented, I want to ask you for a favor."
Just as Mo Shuang was about to decline, Mu Jin said, "Why don't you go and see if you can help me, and we'll talk about it later."
Mo Shuang nodded.
The young man in blue led them to a lantern, on which was written: Return from stepping on the flowers, butterflies around knees - type the name of the herbal medicine.
Mu Jin frowned when he saw the name of the herbal medicine. He knew nothing about herbal medicine, and it would be good if he could name a few common herbal medicines.
Mu Jin said: "This lantern is clearly reserved for the doctor in that alley."
The young man in blue kept his eyes on Mo Shuang, looking at his beautiful eyebrows, almost lost his mind.Seeing him staring at his wife, Mu Jin was about to say that they couldn't help with this lantern riddle and wanted to drag Mo Shuang away.
Mo Shuang said: "The butterfly circled the knee after stepping on the flower. If I guessed correctly, it should be Cyperus.
Hearing his words, the young master in blue came back to his senses, and said to the middle-aged scholar behind him: "This young master said it was Xiangfu, but he guessed it right."
The middle-aged scholar couldn't help admiring, "Young master is really well-informed and omniscient, I admire you."
"Sir, Mister." Mo Shuang said to the middle-aged scholar: "This young master wants this lantern, please trouble the shopkeeper to take it down."
"Okay, I'll take it here." The middle-aged scholar tiptoed to take down the lantern, and handed it to the boy in blue.
The young man in blue took the lantern and looked at Mo Shuang, "I've been talking for so long, and I still don't know your name."
Mu Jin answered for Mo Shuang: "Since we met by chance, we may not see each other in the future, so why ask for names?"
The young man in blue looked unhappy at Mu Jinduo, with a cold light in his eyes, "I remember, I was talking to this young man in white."
Just as Mu Jin was about to retaliate, Mo Shuang said, "If we meet again by fate next time, it won't be too late to register."
The blue-clothed young master looked at Mo Shuang with cold eyes just now and instantly became gentle, "Well, see you next time, young master, you must report your name."
"Okay." Mo Shuang said.
Mu Jin glanced at the young man in blue, and couldn't stand the way he looked at Mo Shuang, so he supported Mo Shuang's shoulder and said, "It's getting late, we should go back."
The young man in blue held the lantern and watched Mo Shuang leave, the corners of his lips raised little by little. He was bound to win this man.
