My wife is Wu Zetian

Chapter 585 Guess the Riddle

Li Yanran felt bad after listening to Chang Sun Yan's words.

You are also known as the Four Heavenly Kings of Chang'an, and you don't even know about such a grand event.

"Brother Li, what exactly is going on in this lantern riddle competition?"

Yuchi Huan also frowned and was a little unclear about the lantern riddle competition.

"This lantern riddle convention is actually a high platform with various lantern riddles hanging on it.
If anyone can guess all the riddles and win the crown, he will be rewarded with a lot of money. "

Li Yanran smiled slightly and told everything she knew.

"Brother Li, I am good at marching and fighting, but I know nothing about guessing lantern riddles!"

Cheng Chubi glanced at Li Yanran. Even if he knew about the lantern riddle contest, he didn't understand it at all.

"That's right, these things are all those literati playing tricks on, and we don't understand them!"

"Brother Li, can you still guess lantern riddles?"

Li Siwen looked at Li Yanran with shock in his eyes.

"What do you think? Let's go, let's go!"

Li Yanran didn't say anything, just rolled up her sleeves and walked towards the high platform of the lantern riddle competition.

Before coming to the high platform, I saw that it was covered with lantern riddles, and strings of lanterns illuminated it in a colorful way.

There were lantern riddles above and below. Countless people were walking around, looking at the lantern riddles they could guess.

"Brother Li, what is this?"

Li Yanran curled her lips when she looked at the word puzzle in Yu Chihuan's hand.

"Typing one word out of ten words, isn't this simple? Li Siwen, tell me!"

The puzzle of Shikouxin really made me not want to guess it, it was too simple.

"Isn't the combination of ten words and heart just the word "si"? Why are you so stupid!"

Li Siwen glanced at the puzzle and directly told the answer.

"How can a ten-mouthed mind be a thought? Come on, explain it to me!"

Yuchi Huan was stunned, and immediately grabbed Li Siwen's sleeve and asked him to explain to him.

Li Siwen also looked depressed, squatting on the ground and writing the word "Si" on the ground.

"Did you see it? Shikouxin is the word "si"!

"I see!"

After seeing this, Yuchi Huan's whole body became enlightened, that's it, that's it.

This anagram is so interesting, one word turns out to be a riddle.

"What about this? Eight eyes plus one word!"

Cheng Chubi also picked up a word puzzle and spoke to Li Yanran.

"Idiot, just like those ten people, just group them together! Isn't it a congratulations!"

Changsun Yan learned to draw inferences from one instance and wrote a congratulation on his backhand.

"It really is!"

Looking at the word "congratulations", Cheng Chubi also suddenly realized.

Am I really that stupid?

I couldn't even guess such a simple word, and Zhang Sunyan even beat me to it.

"What about this! Eat the ox tail in one bite!"

"???"

Everyone was stunned when they heard the word puzzle that Chang Sun Yan interpreted.

How to form this word? Even Li Siwen frowned.

"This word is a little different from the one just now. Just now it was a word puzzle, but this one needs some modifications."

Looking at the four people, Li Yanran also squatted on the ground and started writing.

First he wrote the word "ox", and then said to the four people: "The literal meaning of cow's tail is this vertical line. When eaten in one bite, it means replacing this vertical line with the mouth, so it is a word for warning."

Listening to Li Yanran's explanation, several people suddenly realized.

This word puzzle can still be played in this way. The word combination just now has become a word split first and then combined.

Fun, fun.

"Look, there are people guessing words, objects, and place names. There's a lot of fun."

Where is this? These are the simplest word puzzles, and in later generations, even three-year-old children will be familiar with them.

The really difficult crossword puzzles are probably all on that high platform. I don’t know what kind of questions they will be.

"For example, this 'Five brothers, living together, with different names, different heights.' It should be the right finger!"

Li Siwen brought another lantern riddle over, looked at the riddle and then directly told the answer.

"No, you're not right."

Yuchi Huan stared at Li Siwen and said to him.

"What's wrong?"

Li Siwen was stunned, and Li Yanran was also stunned.

There is nothing wrong with this riddle, but why is it wrong?

"The toes are also of different lengths!"

Yuchi Huan smiled slightly and told what he thought was the answer to the riddle.

"."

Li Yanran was completely stunned. The child's thoughts were really lost.

Who in their right mind would guess the toes.

"No, what you said is wrong, Yuchi Huan, my toes are not of different lengths!"

Changsun Yan on the side frowned and spoke to Yuchi Huan.

"How is it possible? I don't believe it unless you take off your boots and show me!"

Yuchi Huan's eyes widened. He didn't believe that someone's toes could be evenly aligned.

This is simply not possible!

"If you don't believe me, I'll show you!"

Changsun Yan was not used to Yuchi Huan and didn't mind the dirt on the floor, so he sat down and took off his boots to show him.

"and many more!"

Seeing this, Li Yanran was stunned and quickly asked to stop.

You really don’t know what it means to be embarrassed, do you? You have to take off your boots in public, and you’re not afraid of choking others with your athlete’s foot.

"What's wrong? I must let Yuchi Huan know how powerful he is today."

Changsun Yan didn't want to let go of this opportunity. What did you do to me just now? Now I want to embarrass you.

"That's enough, Peng Yu. If he dares to take off his boots, he will be beaten to death."

"."

After hearing this, Chang Sun Yan also became depressed. He stood up from the ground and patted the dust on his butt.

"If you don't take it off, don't take it off. Why do you do anything?"

"Dare to say?"

"Stop talking!" Changsun Yan shut up immediately and walked aside alone.

"Brother Li, what is this!"

After taking a lantern riddle, Changsun Yan came back again.

"To build a tall building with a single log, there are no tiles or beams. If a person walks under the water, the water will flow above him!"

Looking at this lantern riddle, Li Yanran also fell into deep thought.

Don't talk about this stuff, it's really difficult.

The key is that the man walks under the water and the water flows above him.

What could have such an effect?

bridge?
No, the bridge is for people walking on water.

Glancing at the eaves above her head, a light flashed in Li Yanran's eyes, and she seemed to have the answer.

"It's an oil umbrella!"

Li Siwen followed Li Yanran's gaze and looked up, and spoke directly.

"Oil umbrella, why is it an oil umbrella!"

Changsun Yan was stunned when he looked at the puzzle in his hand and didn't understand why the answer was this.

“To build a tall building with a single log, it refers to the handle of an oil umbrella. The no tiles and beamless head indicate that this thing is not a building. The most important thing is the last two sentences.

When people walk under the water, the water flows above them. Isn't this what we mean by holding an umbrella after the rain?
I'm right, Brother Li! "

Li Siwen smiled slightly and explained his explanation.

"Well, that's right, the answer to this puzzle is really an oil umbrella. Li Siwen, you guessed it right."

Li Yanran nodded. Li Siwen's analysis was correct, just as he thought.

"I see, this object-guessing riddle is much more difficult than the word-guessing riddle!"

Chang Sun Yan has nothing to refute with this explanation. Now it seems that he is really suitable for this activity.

It’s so difficult.

While Li Yanran and the others were still happily guessing riddles, a man slowly walked onto the high platform.

"Cui Chengbin is here!"

"Is he the leader from last term?"

"Looks like it's him!"

The arrival of Cui Chengbin also aroused cheers from the people. After all, Cui Chengbin was no ordinary person.

He is a descendant of the Cui family of Qiwang, the fifth surname. He is naturally intelligent and studied under a great Confucian scholar.

Although the classics and history strategy is a bit inferior, and the poetry recitation and composition are not that outstanding, it has its own uniqueness in guessing lantern riddles.

Since he was born, he has won the title of Shangyuan Lantern Festival twice in a row. If he can win again this time, it will be his third consecutive championship.

He is definitely an extremely powerful person.

"Zhou Mu is here too!"

I don't know who shouted again, and I saw a tall young man walking up to the high platform.

"Zhou Mu, is that Zhou Mu who lost to Cui Chengbin twice in a row?"

"Who else but him!"

"Haha, I've seen more this time!"

"Li Cheng is here too!"

"And Sun Miao!"

"Liu Wei!"

As young people came up one after another, the people below also started face recognition mode.

"Let's go! There's nothing to see!"

Looking at the cheering people below, Li Yanran frowned and stood up to leave.

"Brother Li, you are so good at guessing lantern riddles, why don't you go up and compete with them!"

Changsun Yan was thinking hard about the answer to the puzzle in his hand, and was stunned when he heard Li Yanran say this.

Li Yanran is also very good at guessing riddles, why not give it a try?
Anyway, no one knows anyone among these fools, there is no shame if they lose, and there is a reward for winning.

why not.

"That's right, Brother Li, don't you want to see how difficult the puzzle on that high platform is?"

Li Siwen also frowned. Seeing that Li Yanran was very interested, he thought she would go up and show off her skills.

Unexpectedly, this is the result.

Turning around and leaving, he really didn't understand.

"It is said that a tree that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind, and the first bird will be shot with a gun.

We have a special status, which is okay down there. Once we become the center of attention, we will definitely be exposed.

It’s not like you don’t know how hard we cheated those aristocratic families some time ago. If they find out about this, what if they find someone to block us?
Not to mention cutting you down, putting a sack on you and beating you up, where are you going to reason with me? "

Li Yanran shook her head. She came to visit Chang'an, not to show off.

It would be a waste of natural resources if we waste our precious time visiting Chang'an on this Lantern Festival because of competing with others.

"I want to see who dares!"

When Cheng Chubi heard this, he punched himself in the chest, his eyes filled with sparkles.

If someone really comes to cause trouble without opening your eyes, first try to see if you can withstand your own punch as big as a sandbag.

"That's right, they can't defeat you in the shopping mall, and they can't defeat you on the battlefield either. I want to see who comes here to die without opening their eyes!"

Yuchi Huan also stepped forward, eating and drinking from Li Yanran.

After saying this, I haven't fought with anyone in Chang'an for a long time. People in Chang'an may have forgotten how powerful my fists are.

If this meeting really came as a surprise, then he would just practice his skills.

He also rectified the names of the Four Heavenly Kings of Chang'an, so that others in the province would forget their majesty.

"Pull me down! I don't want to be with you. If my father finds out, he will have to skin me!"

Li Yanran glared at the two of them. You are used to fighting, but I am not.

How many pairs of eyes are watching. If you really do something outrageous, it won't be that easy to figure it out later.

"Brother Li, don't be afraid. You can come on stage with confidence and leave the rest to us!"

Li Siwen also patted Li Yanran's shoulder and told her to just go ahead and do it. Everything is up to her.

"Forget it, let's go, there are still many things to play."

Li Yanran still shook her head. The risks outweighed the benefits and it was not worth it.

"Hey, let's do this, it will be easier for them!"

Changsun Yan was also helpless. He really couldn't do it, otherwise he would have to show off to some extent.

"Let's go!"

Several people had no choice but to look at the high platform where everyone was cheering, and they also left surrounded by Li Yanran.

The group of people walked around. The Tang Dynasty was more prosperous at night than during the day, with people wandering around everywhere and vendors frantically soliciting customers.

After several people walked for a while, their bodies were already covered with things, especially Li Yanran, who no longer cared about her father and Li Hong.
Put the two of them on the belt, and there will be delicious food on both hands.

"what is that?"
