Tang Dynasty good father-in-law

Chapter 407 Lantern Festival, Sense of Presence
Yu Fu
A middle-aged man was fidgeting, his expression showing nervousness.

This person is none other than Yu Xiu, and the person in charge of the military weapons supervision has a lot of cold sweat on his back at this moment.

Although this winter was a bit cold, Yu Xiu didn't feel it at all, instead he felt a kind of torment in his heart.

"I didn't expect it to really fall this time."

Yu Xiu was a little discouraged and murmured softly, even he didn't know why it happened.

You must know that he personally watched each batch of production, but after arriving in the army, it became a defective product.

He is destined to be unable to escape this pot, and this position is definitely not secure.

Of course, the more important thing is that if you still can't make people believe it after telling all this, I'm afraid that exile will be light.

"No, we must delay for a while."

Yu Xiu's eyes flickered and he gritted his teeth and said, on the one hand, he still doesn't want to give up like this, maybe there is still hope.

On the other hand, he just made some preparations for the funeral, in case something happened to him, and the Yufu was in chaos.

After thinking of this, Yu Xiu naturally thought of his elder brother Yu Zhining, and hoped that he could help him because of the love of incense.

No one knew what was going on in Yu's mansion, several days passed, and the day of Lantern Festival came as promised.

"Are the glutinous rice balls and lantern riddles ready?"

Shu An's eyes fell on Lai Fu and said, as for that matter, it has been handed over to Shu Kuanghu.

After all, Laifu's more responsibilities are just that of a housekeeper, and most of the situation is to manage the situation of Shufu.

"Yes, sir, everything is ready."

There was a hint of affirmation on Laifu's face, and there was a hint of confidence in his words.

Shu An nodded, knowing that this time during the Lantern Festival, he did not forget to come out to check his presence.

The last time, because I just returned to Chang'an, I didn't know what the Lantern Festival was, so I was delayed.

But this year, it can be used a bit, at least to increase the following influence.

You must know that during this period of inactivity, Shu An can feel that his reputation has stagnated through the system.

There were even some slight retreats, which made Shu An feel vigilant in his heart.

After all, the prestige is almost accumulated enough now, Shu An naturally doesn't want to fall short, and has spent so much time.

Originally, he wasn't too interested in Yuanxiao, so he couldn't let it go now. He just prepared some glutinous rice balls for many people in Chang'an to try.

Of course, trying to eat is not so easy, and it is also inseparable from the lantern riddles that belong to the Lantern Festival.

Even though the night had not yet fallen, Shu An had already opened Chang'an Center to start publicity, as soon as the street in front of the Shu Mansion was considered remote.

Even though there were a lot of people coming and going after Shu An returned, there was still a lot of gap between him and those bustling streets.

But Shu An is confident, the streets outside Shu Mansion must be the busiest place tonight.

In fact, just as Shu An thought, the news about Shu An's lantern riddles during the Lantern Festival has already spread throughout Chang'an.

"You can eat glutinous rice balls for guessing riddles outside the Shu residence."

"A single bowl of glutinous rice balls is said to cost 99 cash in heaven and earth."

"Do we have a chance to eat this glutinous rice balls? What's more, Duke Anxuan's riddle is also exciting."

There was a voice of discussion in Chang'an, but there was a hint of interest in the words.

Some are interested in glutinous rice balls, and some are interested in the puzzles that Shu An presented. All in all, I can say that I am very looking forward to tonight.

In fact, Shu An's actions also attracted the interest of many people, such as many of Shu An's disciples, and Li Shimin in the court.

You must know that during the Lantern Festival season, even women can come out, and many princes and princesses in the court will come out to have a look.

After all, there are not many such opportunities, even for Li Chengqian. You must know that apart from Li Tai, it is basically not so easy for princes and princesses to leave the palace.

Similarly, Li Shimin is no exception, but Li Shimin still needs to go to the city wall in the end to spend the Lantern Festival with the people in the city.

But the previous words can dress up as ordinary people, and I am still very interested in Li Shimin's lantern riddles by Yafu.

"Your Majesty, there is another news just now. It is said that the person who guesses the most lantern riddles correctly will get a poem about Lantern Festival by Duke An Xuan."

Just as Li Shimin's thoughts were racing, Wang De's respectful voice sounded beside him.

To know about Duke Anxuan, it is always right to report immediately. Obviously Wang De already has experience.

"Lantern Festival poetry?"

A gleam of light flashed in Li Shimin's eyes and he said softly, originally this emperor had moved on purpose, so there is no need to say more now.

In fact, not only this emperor was tempted, but many scholars in Chang'an were also tempted at this time.

Even if An Xuangong's poems are not wanted by him, he can still reap a lot of money if he sells them.

Money that is even enough to spend a lifetime extravagantly can be said to be a huge temptation for those humble scholars.

As for the children of those aristocratic families, they also want to get it. As for the reason, it is very simple, that is, this Duke Anxuan is too famous.

As a result, many people want to ask for a pair of calligraphy, even if they don't need it themselves, if they give it to their elders, they can also get rich rewards.

The sky had not yet darkened, and a lot of people had gathered on the street outside the gate of the Shu Mansion, and the couplets on the side close to the Shu Mansion were ready to be hung.

There are many stalls in it, occupying a whole street, and there is a guard standing on each of them.

And each stall has a portion of glutinous rice balls, among which the glutinous rice balls are placed in a steamer to ensure that they will not cool down due to the weather.

"Every time you guess a pair of couplets, you will get a small bowl of glutinous rice balls."

"You will also get a small wooden sign, and finally hand over the wooden sign to the guards for statistics."

"Finally, the first person who guessed the lantern riddles before the Shu Mansion tonight will be selected, and will get a copy of An Xuangong's poems."

Many people spoke out, the rules are very simple and easy to understand.

Of course, there are also many people who come here for the glutinous rice balls. It is said that the heaven and the earth are all inherited from the Shu family.

Everything that is produced is definitely a mouth-watering food, but because of the price, many people are unable to try it.

Now there is such an opportunity. As for many scholars who have tried it in the heaven and earth before, they are also attracted by the glutinous rice balls.

It's just that the price of 99 texts is too much for even them to digest, and now they have a chance to eat for free, so naturally they will not let it go.

Under such circumstances, as the night gradually fell, more and more people gathered.

　Yu Zhian made a mistake earlier, it has been corrected by Yu Zhining
