"Aniang, brother, look, someone is lighting the sky lantern~!"

Guiyifang, in the home of Meng Wenhao.

After dinner, Yaya came to the courtyard and inadvertently saw a bright fire

floating in the sky in the northeast direction. The little girl couldn't help

but yelled excitedly into the house, pointing in that direction.

The so-called sky lantern is another nickname for Kongming lantern, commonly

known as the wishing lantern, and also known as the praying lantern. It is an

ancient Chinese handicraft that was mostly used for military purposes in

ancient times, but some people would use it on major festivals such as Lantern

Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival for wishing and blessing.

Regarding the origin of Kongming lanterns, there are two theories. One is that

in the five generations, there was a woman named Xin Qiniang who used bamboo

strips to make a square frame with her husband when fighting in Fujian. ,

Burning resin is placed on the chassis, and the lamp flies into the sky by hot

air, which is used as a military communication signal. This kind of resin lamp

is called Kongming lamp in Sichuan. The main reason is that this lantern looks

like a hat worn by Zhuge Liang, hence the name.

Another way of saying it is that it was invented by Zhuge Liang during the

Three Kingdoms period. At that time, Zhuge Liang was besieged in Pingyang,

unable to send troops out of the city for help. Kong Ming calculated the

direction of the wind and made a paper lantern that would float, and attached

a distress message. The consequences would escape danger, so later generations

called this lantern Kongming lantern.

No matter which statement is correct, it is an indisputable fact that there

were Kongming lamps in the Tang Dynasty.

"Really, but there are still more than ten days before the Mid-Autumn

Festival~! Why would anyone put sky lanterns on at this time~?"

When Mother Meng heard her daughter's scream, she also ran out to watch the

excitement. After seeing the fire, she said with some confusion.

"Mother, that's not a sky lantern~!"

Meng Wenhao said boringly at this time, and then he gestured with his hands:

"The fire is at least four or five miles away from our place. Generally

speaking, the farther away things are, the smaller they look. But now we can

see so clearly after such a distance, which shows that things are better than

normal. The sky lantern is at least dozens of times bigger~! It is definitely

not a sky lantern~!"

After hearing the words, Mother Meng thought carefully, and suddenly realized

that what her son said was reasonable, but she was still somewhat puzzled:

"But if it weren't for sky lanterns, what else could fly so high~?"

"Baby don't know~!"

Meng Wenhao shook his head and said, "But Mr. Sure must know~!"

Mother Meng rubbed her son's head amusedly, and said, "Yes, yes~! Hao'er's

husband is the best~! Go to rest early~! Hao'er, you have to go to the food

shop of Hu Yuan's house tomorrow! Afterwards~!"

Father Meng has been going to sea for almost three months, and the pillars of

the family have gone. Meng Wenhao had to stand up at this time, so he took

advantage of the more than two months of field leave to find a job to

subsidize the family.

The other party is the outsider of the Human Mengmu often works for. The

position is Mr. Accountant. With the glory aura of the first arithmetic school

and the knowledge of arithmetic that is ahead of this era in his mind, Meng

Wenhao alone is worth ten. The Hu family’s original accountant, so not only

did Hu Yuanwai treat him with special respect, his salary was not generally

high.

"Oh~! Got it, mother~!"

Meng Wenhao sullenly responded, but his expression became a little weird.

…………………………

"Your Majesty, according to the report from the people below, a large group of

flames just flew out of the Qiqu Pavilion Workshop, and that group of flames

is still flying to the northeast. It should be about to leave the city now~!"

In the Ganlu Hall, Li Er rubbed his sore wrist and was about to go back to

sleep with his grandson, but Zhao Song suddenly walked in and reported.

"A flying fire~?"

Li Er frowned and his expression became a little weird. After a while, he

seemed to think of something, and suddenly stood up and said, "Put the Xuanwu

Gate~!"

The north gate of Taiji Palace, Xuanwu Gate, is located at the Yupo of

Longshouyuan. It has a high terrain and overlooks the entire Chang'an City. If

you are in control, it is an important gateway to the north of the palace. Of

course, compared with its geographic location, Xuanwumen is most famous for

its political and military status. After all, a regime change took place here

last year.

In fact, in a few years, a taller and more magnificent building will begin to

be built here, that is, the famous Daming Palace. Standing on it, you can see

it even outside Chang'an. If nothing else, it will be in Zhenguan for eight

years. Li Erhui ordered the construction.

"Your Majesty, look at it quickly~! It's the firelight, estimate the distance,

it should fly out of Chang'an City~!"

Arriving upstairs of Xuanwu Gate, Zhao Song pointed to Eastern Sky and said to

Li Er.

"Hmm~!"

Li Er nodded and responded, but his eyes stared in that direction without

blinking. Zhao Song didn't know why Li Er looked so attentively, but he didn't

dare to ask questions, just lowered his eyebrows. Standing on the sidelines.

"Swing back to the palace~!"

After a long time, the fire became smaller and smaller ~www.mtlnovel.com~

until it finally disappeared. Li Er tossed his sleeves, turned and left,

leaving a sentence in the air but Zhao Song was stunned.

"After Li Zexuan returns to the city tomorrow, let him come to see me

immediately~!"

Zhao Song frowned and followed Li Er, wondering in his heart: "Isn't Li Zexuan

still in the workshop now~? Why does your Majesty wait for him to return to

the city tomorrow~?"

………………………

"Left punch, right punch, we all take a punch~!"

How depressed Zhao Song was that Li Zexuan couldn't control it. This guy is

now busy wiping his ** for the awesomeness he blown back then~!

After the hot air balloon flew to the sky earlier, he regretted it in his

heart, because tonight it was a southerly wind, and Qinling was in the

northeast of Chang'an City. This wind direction was simply inappropriate~!

If Li Zexuan did nothing and let the fireball fly freely, he would definitely

not reach the Snake Spirit Mountain and would only fly farther and farther

north!

Back then, when Kong Ming was doing Kongming lanterns for help, he had already

calculated the direction of the wind. Although Li Zexuan came from Taoism, he

had not learned how to count. No, he was a little confused when he went to

heaven.

This is really a thousand counts, but one missed one!

Fortunately, this guy's brain is still clever, he thought of the present

method: It is to punch to the west without stopping, it is a punch with real

energy, through the recoil of the punch, combined with the thrust of the south

wind, Li Zexuan "Lian Ren with the ball" floated "limping" towards the

northeast.

(Little friends who have studied force analysis can definitely analyze it)

"Special mother~! Is this a rocket with a gas tank~?"

Li Zexuan mumbled depressedly while doing physical work at high altitude.

Keke, I have to say that his description is really very appropriate~!
