    Because there were too many people on the road, Li Min's carriage moved very slowly. It was only half an hour away from Lu Guogong's mansion, but they walked for more than an hour. Fortunately, the road was very lively, with singing, dancing and hundreds of people.  Sitting on the carriage looking out, I didn¡¯t feel bored at all.

    By the time Li Min and the others arrived at Duke Lu's Mansion, it was probably between nine and ten o'clock in the evening. By this time, people's passions had almost been vented, and more people would choose to participate in more elegant or less physically demanding activities.  , which is one of the reasons why the activity of guessing lantern riddles has spread so quickly.

    The front door of Lu Guogong's Mansion was also decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations. Although the big wheel lantern in front of the door was not as good as the lighthouse in front of Li Min's Mansion, it was still very different. In particular, the Cheng Mansion also invited many acrobats to entertain.  In front of the mansion, countless people gathered to watch. When they saw the wonderful things, bursts of applause broke out from time to time. It seemed to be even more lively than in front of Li Min's mansion.

    "Gentlemen, please be quiet, everyone, listen carefully. The theme of the Lantern Festival is, as long as you can be ranked first, you will get a lottery of 800 yuan." Before Li Min could get off the carriage, he heard  When Cheng Huailiang shouted with a loud voice, he came out and saw that a high platform had been built on the street opposite Cheng's mansion. Cheng Huailiang stood on it in brocade clothes and shouted loudly to a group of people dressed as scholars below.

    Hearing Cheng Huailiang's shouting, Xiao Wenxin and the other girls covered their mouths and snickered. Li Min also felt ashamed to have such a friend. It was quite elegant to have a Shangyuan Festival poetry party, but when Cheng Huailiang shouted, they immediately changed their minds.  The smell of copper stinks.  Looking at the scholars below, all of them had embarrassment on their faces. Although they longed for the eight hundred guan lottery in their hearts, they didn't shout out like that idiot on the stage!

    Fortunately, the management around Cheng Huailiang understood the psychology of these literati very well, and hurriedly stepped forward to chat with them, and then said something like asking everyone to make friends through literature, criticize and improve each other, and welcome everyone to come on stage to present poems.  It finally made the gentleman below look better.  The atmosphere also started to become lively. Everyone started chatting like "you are brother" and "I am brother". At the same time, my mind was spinning rapidly, thinking about the poems I wanted to write.

    After a while, a pushy guy finally came on stage, picked up his pen and wrote down his poem, and the people from the Cheng family read it aloud for everyone to comment on.  Others in the audience saw someone coming forward.  Not to be outdone, they all came to the stage to write poems. After a while, it was estimated that at least twenty or thirty people had written poems.  It's just that there are many good and bad ones, most of them can only be regarded as smooth, and very few can be called high-quality.

    Wen'er and Hua'er at the back felt itchy looking at it, and whispered in Li Min's ear with a smile: "Your Highness, for such a grand event, how about you go up and write a poem?"

    When Xiao Wenxin next to her heard this, she immediately became interested. The last time Li Min told her about Zhuang Sheng's Dream of Butterflies, he did not tell her that his poem was copied.  It wasn't that Li Min wanted to hide it from her on purpose, it was just a male chauvinist act. It would be so shameless to let the girl he likes know that he was a shameless plagiarist!

    ¡°I¡¯ll forget it, leave the brain-consuming task of writing poetry to others!¡± Li Min chuckled. In the past, there was no psychological burden in copying poetry.  Now when I copy it in front of Xiao Wenxin, I don't know why, but I always feel guilty, as if there is a pair of eyes watching me when I steal something.  Very uncomfortable.

    "Husband, just compose a song. Wen Xin also wants to hear it." In fact, Li Min didn't even say it.  But with Xiao Wenxin's cleverness, he could guess a little bit. However, the girl whose thoughts were completely focused on Li Min never pointed it out, and even deliberately made an expression of admiration and begged.

    Li Min was helpless. He also remembered a few poems about Shangyuan Ye, so he didn't have to worry about not being able to write them. However, thinking about his broken handwriting, he felt a little flinched. But suddenly an idea came to him, and he leaned into Xiao Wenxin's ear and said a few words.  At first, Xiao Wen was unwilling to obey. No matter what Li Min said, she was unwilling to go on stage for Li Min, even wearing a mask.  In the end, Li Min smiled and used his trump card, telling Wen Xin that if she didn't come on stage, he would stop watching Dream of Red Mansions every night.

    This finally caught Xiao Wenxin's weakness. She was now obsessed with Red Mansion. If Li Min didn't talk about it for a day, she would feel uncomfortable. In the end, she had no choice but to encourage Li Min and the others and look at the surprised eyes of everyone in the audience.  , slowly climbed onto the high platform, then picked up a pen and paper, and slowly wrote a long or short sentence:

    The east wind blooms thousands of trees at night,

    The stars are falling like rain.

    BMW¡¯s car-carving fragrance fills the road.

    The sound of the phoenix flute moves and the light of the jade pot turns

    A night of fish and dragon dance.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ????

    ??The laughter is full of fragrance.

    People look for him thousands of Baidu,

    Suddenly looking back, that person was there,

    A dimly lit place.

     As the head of the Cheng Mansion read out the poem "The Sapphire Case? Yuan Xi", everyone in the audience immediately became silent. Originally, long and short sentences did not have a very high status in the literary world of the Tang Dynasty, but with Li Min's two poems "  The spread of "Bu Suanzi" and "Shui Tiao Ge Tou" has allowed more people to appreciate the charm of long and short sentences. Now there are many people in the scholar community who also have experience in long and short sentences. Therefore, after hearing this song "Qingyu Case", everyone  Xiao Wenxin was stunned and speechless as she stared at the stage.

    Xiao Wenxin, who was wearing a mask, slowly walked off the stage in the eyes of everyone. Although the mask was hideous, Xiao Wenxin's figure was slender, and her actions all revealed the elegance and virtuousness of a lady, which made people feel ashamed. During this period, she actually  No one dared to come forward to ask.

    When Xiao Wenxin walked to Li Min's side, his body went limp. If Li Min hadn't suddenly held his slender waist, he would have fallen to the ground at that time.  Despite Xiao Wenxin's generous behavior just now, she was actually extremely nervous, especially when she stepped off the stage just now and was watched by so many people. She didn't even know how she got off the stage.

    "My husband is dead. Even if Wen Xin dies next time, she won't be willing to do such a thing." Xiao Wenxin snorted and habitually got into Li Min's arms, never daring to get up again.  When those literati saw that the woman who had been so amazing to them just now got into the arms of a man wearing a lady's mask, they immediately felt a great pain in their hearts. At the same time, they looked at Li Min with jealousy in their eyes.  With a bit of envy.

    As soon as the song "The Case of Sapphire" came out, it immediately attracted unanimous praise from everyone, especially the last line, "Everyone looked for him thousands of times, but when he suddenly looked back, he was there, in the dim light."  'Although there is no specific description, it presents a vivid picture: a young man searched thousands of times in the crowd, but was always hard to find. He was already disappointed. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and under a few broken lights, he could not find a trace.  Next to the lamp, I saw a pretty figure. It turned out that the person I was looking for had been watching me silently from behind.

    In just a few sentences, it not only outlines the scene of the Lantern Festival, but also portrays two vivid characters. Such a masterpiece was naturally convinced by everyone and was immediately rated first.

    At this time, Cheng Huailiang on the stage also noticed Li Min and immediately stepped off the stage. A group of men and women emerged from the audience and followed Cheng Huailiang.  Although Li Min was wearing a mask, Cheng Huailiang was so familiar with him that he could guess it was Li Min just by looking at his figure.

    "Haha, Liu Lang, you are finally here!" Cheng Huailiang shouted boldly before the person arrived. At this time, those literati suddenly realized that the second son of the Cheng family could be called Liu Lang, and he could do such a thing.  Excellent work, do you still need to guess the identity of the other party?  As for the woman just now, she is probably the Princess Qi.

    "Haha, Brother Cheng, what you have here is quite lively!" Li Min also laughed, and at this time Xiao Wenxin had already gotten up from Li Min's arms and snuggled next to him.

    "Liu Lang, come into the house with me quickly. My father has been waiting for you for a long time." Cheng Huailiang came over and pulled Li Min away. It seemed that there was something urgent.

    Li Min was also curious about what was going on. When he was about to follow him, he suddenly glanced around and saw a pair of bright eyes. It was a girl wearing a mask that exposed her forehead and eyes. She was wearing a light yellow skirt.  Cheng Hualiang stood handsomely behind him, looking at himself up and down with curious eyes.

    Seeing those unfamiliar yet somewhat familiar eyes, Li Min suddenly felt a shock in his chest. The noisy crowd around him seemed to suddenly disappear. It seemed that only he and the other person were left in the whole world, standing there motionless for a while.

    "Husband! Husband!" Seeing Li Min standing there motionless, and Cheng Huailiang pulled him several times without moving him, Xiao Wenxin was a little strange, so he pushed Li Min a few times and followed his gaze.

    "Ohwhatwhat's wrong?" Li Min suddenly woke up. When he saw Xiao Wenxin turning to look at the girl, he hurriedly stepped aside to block it and said with an unnatural smile. Unfortunately, he forgot that he was still wearing it on his face.  Mask, no one can see his expression at all.

    "Liu Lang, what were you looking at just now?" Xiao Wenxin was blocked by Li Min and couldn't see anything, so he could only ask in confusion.

    "It's nothing, let's go see Mr. Cheng as soon as possible!" Li Min said with a smile. At this time, Cheng Hualiang in front also turned around. Li Min hurriedly pulled Xiao Wenxin and pushed Cheng Hualiang to the Cheng Mansion.

    When he reached the steps in front of the gate, Li Min secretly glanced back, only to find that the girl just now had disappeared. At that moment, he sighed in his heart.  .  But when he looked back, he had lost all traces of her. Why was the other person so similar to the person in his heart?  Who is she?  We are destined to meet each other this time, but in this vast sea of ??people, are we still destined to see each other again?

    Just when Li Min came to Duke Lu, heAt the same time, something big happened to Li Zhen, who was traveling with the Wu sisters.

    Li Zhen and the others ran far away, and are now on Zhuque Street near Mingde Gate. The reason why they ran so far is because there is a small shop there that is very famous for its Lantern Festival. After the three of them were tired from playing, they went into the shop to have a good meal.  After a pause, I came out and was about to get in the car and go to the square in front of the Imperial City to have some more fun.

    Then just when Li Zhen and Wu Meiniang got on the bus, and Wu Meiniang behind them was about to get on, suddenly there was a sudden movement in the alley next to them, and then a carriage rushed out of the alley and knocked down several pedestrians.  He rushed towards Li Zhen like flying.

    Before the guards brought by Li Zhen could react, the carriage rushed to Wu Meiniang's side, and then two men in black jumped out of the car, lifted her up and threw her into the car, and then drove the carriage and immediately prepared to escape.  (To be continued)
