"The night of the full moon, flying immortal from outer space?"
In the room, after Han Yuxi saw the title of Li Zexuan's manuscript, she couldn't help but wonder, "Husband, are you preparing to write a new novel?"
Outsiders didn't know that "The Legend of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality" was written by Li Zexuan, but how could Han Yuxi not know? That was why she asked this question.
Li Zexuan shook his head and said with a smile, "That's not it! By the way, didn't you suspect that I have a relationship with other women just now? I'll give you a surprise tomorrow night and let you understand my feelings! "
Han Yuxi was embarrassed, but she still said stubbornly, "I … I didn't suspect you! Besides … Besides, you're young and have a bright future. It's normal even if you have three wives and four concubines. I … I won't throw a tantrum with you! "
Li Zexuan looked into her eyes and asked mischievously, "If I marry other women, will you really not be unhappy?"
Han Yuxi's pretty face turned pale. She bit her lips and said bitterly, "I … I won't be unhappy!"
Seeing her like this, Li Zexuan couldn't bear to tease her anymore. He said softly, "Little fool! I was just teasing you! Whether rich or poor, I, Li Zexuan, have my wife in this life. I won't marry anyone else! "
Han Yuxi widened her eyes in surprise and said in disbelief, "Husband, is what you said true?"
Although it was popular in ancient times to have three wives and four concubines, that was only because the situation forced it. In fact, which woman was willing to share her husband with other women? Han Yuxi just said that because she didn't want Li Zexuan to think that she didn't see the big picture and didn't want her parents-in-law and neighbors to say that she was jealous. Of course, she didn't want Li Zexuan to marry a concubine.
Looking at Han Yuxi's cute appearance with her eyes wide open, Li Zexuan couldn't help but lightly touch her pure white forehead with his lips, and then said with a smile, "Of course it's true, when have I ever lied to you? That day when we bowed to heaven and earth, I said that I wanted to be a celestial couple with my wife that everyone in the world would envy. Haha, let's start tomorrow night ~! "
"What?"
"Haha! You'll understand tomorrow night ~! "
Han Yuxi playfully rolled her eyes and suddenly said, "Oh right, husband, tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival! We have to worship the moon and eat round pancakes at night! "
Li Zexuan was stunned when he heard this. He guessed that the round pancakes were probably mooncakes, but he didn't expect this custom to start in the Tang Dynasty. He couldn't help but feel homesick as he recalled the Mid-Autumn Festival in his previous life …
According to legend, mooncakes originally originated in the early Tang Dynasty. During the reign of Wu De, Great General Li Jing defeated the Xiongnu and returned triumphantly on the 15th of August. At that time, there were Turpan businessmen who offered Li Yuan cakes to celebrate his victory. Li Yuan took the gorgeous cake box, took out the round pancakes, and smiled as he pointed to the moon in the sky and said, "I should invite the toad with the pancakes."
After saying that, he distributed the pancakes to the officials to taste together. From then on, there was the custom of eating pancakes on the Mid-Autumn Festival. At that time, the rich families would generally set up incense tables to worship the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Round pancakes, watermelons, apples, grapes, and other offerings were all available. Among them, round pancakes and watermelons were absolutely indispensable. Exquisite families even specially cut watermelons into lotus-shaped offerings.
But at that time, there was no such thing as mooncakes. In fact, "mooncakes" only existed in the Southern Song Dynasty. It was only in the Ming Dynasty that there were accurate records of eating mooncakes on the Mid-Autumn Festival.
"Haha! It's okay ~! We can worship the moon and eat round pancakes after we come back tomorrow night ~! Wife, quickly go to sleep ~! "
After a long while, Li Zexuan woke up from his memories. He patted Han Yuxi's shoulder and smiled gently.
"Okay ~!"
…
"Yo ~! On the night of the full moon, flying immortals from beyond the heavens. What does Mr. Li mean ~? "
The next morning …
Some people who bought the newspaper couldn't help but discuss with their companions after seeing today's headlines.
"Sigh ~! Lord Li personally mentioned this matter yesterday, and I was still there at that time ~! But Lord Li didn't say what exactly it was ~! "
"Yesterday ~? Oh ~! I heard that a group of scholars blocked Lord Li's house yesterday. Is that true ~? "
"Yes ~! It even alarmed the Emperor ~! The leading student has already been arrested by the Imperial Army. Sigh ~! This group of scholars is really ungrateful. They've wasted all their knowledge ~! Lord Li is such a good person, and they still have the face to cause trouble! Sigh, but Lord Li also told us yesterday that he would let the entire Chang 'an City witness a miracle tonight. He wants to prove that the so-called engineering in the newspaper is not a lie. "
"Heh ~! Then there's a lot to see tonight. It's the Mid-Autumn Festival, and we can watch the fun ~! "
"Haha ~! That's right, that's right ~! "
At this moment, hundreds of thousands of people in Chang 'an were silently looking forward to the arrival of night.
Imperial City, Changle Palace.
"Wow ~! Is Brother Xiao Xuan going to show everyone the fairy lamp ~? I'm so looking forward to it ~! "
Changle leaned against the couch, holding the newspaper in her hand. After reading the headlines, an extremely bright smile immediately flashed on her exquisite little face. Her watery eyes were filled with longing.
Ordinary people didn't know about the fairy lamp, but as the Princess of the Tang Dynasty, Changle naturally knew about it long ago. As smart as she was, she almost instantly thought of what Li Zexuan was going to do at night from the words "On the night of the full moon, flying immortals". She couldn't help but feel envious.
"If Changle can go up to the fairy lamp once, then even if I immediately die of illness, I won't complain ~! But tonight is the Mid-Autumn Festival. I have to accompany father and mother for dinner. I can't leave the palace ~! "
Changle held her small face and was in a daze. After a moment, she muttered to herself.
..
South of Chang 'an City, Dunhua Square, East County Duke's Mansion.
"Eldest Uncle, Eldest Uncle ~! Hurry up and save Yunhan ~! "
A fat middle-aged man with an oily face hurriedly ran to the backyard and shouted anxiously at Cui Junchuo, who was resting with her eyes closed in the courtyard.
Cui Junchuo opened her eyes with extreme dissatisfaction and scolded in a muffled voice, "What are you shouting for? Look at yourself. Do you still look like a father ~!"
The middle-aged man cried and said, "Eldest Uncle, something happened to Yunhan. How can I continue to be calm ~! Hurry up and think of a way to save Yunhan ~! "
It turned out that this person was Cui Yunhan's biological father, Cui Simo. His father, Cui Junsu, was Cui Junchuo's brother. However, in the Cui family of Cui Yanmu, the title of nobility was passed down to Cui Junchuo. Therefore, now that something happened to Cui Yunhan, Cui Simo didn't go to Cui Junsu for help. Instead, he came to Cui Junchuo for help. After all, in the current Cui family of Qinghe, Cui Junchuo's title was the highest.
Cui Junchuo was stunned. Then, she asked with an ugly expression, "What happened to Yunhan ~? Shouldn't he be in the Hong Wen Museum ~? "
