The two hooks are pulled together, with the big neutral flag as the boundary. The drums are noisy, so that the two can pull each other. The loser is the loser. It is called tug of war.

    "Come on!"

    "No dinner at night?"

    "If you win, someone will invite everyone to eat fuyuanzi!"

    "I''ll give you a hand."

    People stood at both ends of the flag, roughly counting more than a thousand people. There were princes and nobles, civilians, monks and Taoists.

    Because, in the plain life day after day and year after year, only festivals such as Shangyuan can break the commonplace and let people forget how difficult and hard life is in a short carnival.

    In the crowd, Lu Li saw the Hu father and son selling cakes and food on the street of pingkangfang. They shouted and pulled the rope.

    Qianrui girl had bright eyes and said with a smile, "are you going to join them?"

    "No challenge." Lu Li shook his head and looked forward.

    Anfu gate is located on the west side of the imperial city. It is still a square away from here. However, the light emitted by the lamp wheel still reaches here.

    You know, there are two kinds of Changan Lantern Festival.

    One is held by the government. The lamp wheel in front of it, which is 20 feet high, is decorated with silk brocade, gold and silver, hanging 50000 lanterns, which looks like a shining flower tree from a distance.

    The lantern street just passed by was a Folk Lantern Festival, which was also not bad. During the Zhongzong Dynasty, Li Xian and the queen went to watch the lanterns and have fun with the people in their costumes on the Shangyuan Festival. At the same time, they also released thousands of young palace maids and allowed them to go out to play.

    "If Lang Jun doesn''t go to the tug of war, can he wait for the slave?"

    In the light of the fire, the girl qianrui became more and more beautiful. She raised her Qianqian jade finger, looked not far away, and said softly, "I''m going to meet purple Gu."

    "Go, have you ever brought anything for the ceremony?"

    "It''s already ready."

    With the help of Lu Li, girl qianrui got off her horse and trotted all the way to a distance.

    The purple goddess will be green next month.

    The immortal sister had a hard life. She married others as a concubine, but she was jealous of her. She was often called to do dirty work and died on the day of Shangyuan Festival.

    Because of this, women offer sacrifices to Zigu spontaneously, which is not only sympathy for Zigu as a concubine, but also praying that she, who is incarnated as a God, can bless her to meet a lover.

    Of course, men were not allowed to participate in the whole event, so Lu Li did not venture to follow, but looked at it from a distance.

    Most of the girls who participated in the ceremony were young girls who had not yet come out of the cabinet. They took out the statue of purple Gu tied with cloth and straw in advance and said a toast: "if the son-in-law is not here, Cao Gu will also return, and the little sister-in-law can play."

    "In the absence of her son-in-law, Cao Gu will also return. My sister-in-law can play."

    The same is true of qianrui girl. She took out a puppet and held it in her hand. Her expression is especially pious.

    Because a woman like her has boundless scenery on the surface and is sought after by princes and nobles, but what she hopes most is to leave pingkangfang and marry a good man as a concubine.

    Zigu, your husband is not here. The old woman went back to her mother''s house. Come out and play.

    Lu Li sighed with emotion: "I saw such a simple speech for the first time."

    Hey, law.

    On one side, the black maned horse said that his master was right. Unless he couldn''t speak, he wanted to take Lu Li''s shoulder and persuade him not to be a scum man.

    Not long after the ceremony, every girl smiled like a flower. It seemed that they really got the response and blessing of purple Gu.

    "Why does the gentleman cover his face?"

    Miss qianrui has not returned yet. A beautiful shadow appears in front of Lu Li.

    She was wearing a light cyan narrow sleeved upper Ru, with a clay and gold silk on her shoulders, and a red skirt with golden flowers under her, with a protruding figure.

    However, the most surprising thing is that the woman did not apply powder, so her face was facing the sky, and there was still a tease at the corners of her mouth and eyebrows.

    After the ghost mask, Lu Li reluctantly said, "I''m ugly. I''m afraid I''ll scare everyone when I walk in the street. I have to wear a mask."

    "Really?"

    The woman raised her eyebrows, became more and more curious, smiled frivolously and said, "take it off and let me have a look."

    Lu Li is not the only one wearing a mask on the street, but those people are either children or jugglers. He has a long body, extraordinary temperament and an unusually handsome black maned horse. How can such a strange combination not arouse people''s curiosity?

    How arrogant.

    Lu Li was a little unhappy. He was about to leave when he heard a confused voice in his ear: "Lang Jun, who is this lady?"

    After welcoming Zigu, qianrui girl became more and more happy. However, when she came back and found that Lu Li was surrounded by a group of women, her smile froze in an instant.

    Traveling with a group of maidservants and servants, and acting so publicized, the identity will not be simple.

    At this time, a pet maid raised her face and answered on behalf of her, "my mother is the lady of the state of Guo. Now saints should call her aunt when they see her."

    Thanks to the Lord''s grace, the lady of the state of Guo rode into the palace gate at ordinary times.

    However, they dislike the color of fat and powder, and wipe the moth''s eyebrows towards the supreme.

    It was her.

    Lu Li was not surprised to hear that the maidservant had announced her home. Mrs. Guo and the third sister of Yang Taizhen had just entered Chang''an some time ago, and the saint directly granted her a lady of the first grade country.

    In terms of official rank, he is much higher than Dali Qing and has arrogant capital.

    It is said that when she first came to Chang''an, the country lady had no residence and directly took her servants to rob the residence of the former Prime Minister Wei Anshi. At that time, the sons of Wei were enjoying the scenery in the ancestral residence. She directly said she wanted to buy it, but who was willing to sell the residence left by her ancestors?

    There is no need to repeat the twists and turns. Anyway, the courtyard with excellent Feng Shui belongs to the lady of Guo State.

    Lu Li didn''t want to have too much contact with the arrogant and coquettish beautiful woman in front of him. He forked his hand and said, "it''s the lady of the state of Guo. I''m the Dali Qing Lu Li. I''ll take my female companion to enjoy the lamp tonight and take a step first."

    The subtext is obvious: play each other, we don''t know each other.

    As for whether this will offend people, it is not within the scope of Lu Li''s consideration.

    The lady of the state of Guo is honourable, but she bullied Mr. Wei Anshi for more than 20 years. The sons of the Wei family did not live up to him. He is a high-ranking official with a national law in his palm. There is no need to be afraid of a little lady.

    Moreover, he will return in a few days, not to mention a country''s wife. Even if Yang Taizhen plays tricks with himself, he will ignore it.

    "It was Lu Qing."

    Mrs. Guo covered her mouth and smiled softly. The Japanese bun on her head shook with the laughter: "in the afternoon, the slave went to the palace to see her brother-in-law. I heard him talk about her husband."

    "My sister also said that Lu Siqing is handsome and noble. She is a first-class figure in the Tang Dynasty."

    Well... Anyway, Lu Li was praised by Tang Minghuang and Yang Yuhuan. In addition, the speaker was a charming woman, and there was less preconceived disgust in his heart.

    "The saint and the lady praise falsely."

    "What about Gao Weng? He also praised the temple Secretary for his bright jade, which is the pillar of the country."

    Looking at the friendly attitude of the beautiful woman in front of him, Lu Li knew that unfortunately, he was stared at again.
