    Xie Yuelang handed the poem written by Ji Xu to Du Shiniang to read, and said, "Sister Shi, take a look, what does he mean by that."

    Du Shiniang read the poem and praised: "What an elegant person, he doesn't swear by dirty words"

    Yue Lang said to himself: "What kind of person does he like? I don't like pure ones, and I don't like coquettish ones"

    But Du Shiniang said: "Wait a minute, the journey is still long, and there will always be times when he can't stand being lonely."

    [1] "Quatrains" by Wang Tingyun. Poetry

    At the beginning of October, the passenger ship will arrive at "Wuchang", the capital of Huguang Province.

    Du Shiniang felt that the opportunity to get close to Ji Xu had come, so she first wrote a poem to test his mind.

    This five-character quatrain is written like this:

    "Bamboo shadows and poems are thin, and plum blossoms are fragrant in dreams;

    Poor Tonight Moon, who refuses to go down to the West Wing.  "

    The first two sentences of the poem say: I often fall asleep quietly with the fragrance of plum blossoms under the thin bamboo shadow and poems and odes.

    Du Shiniang is telling Ji Xu that she is not a beautiful vase, but an elegant and handsome talented woman.

    The last two sentences complain about Ji Xu: The moonlight, bamboo shadows, and plum fragrance are so harmonious, but why does the moon refuse to set on the West Wing?  This obviously means that Ji Xu is not humane, and she cannot communicate with her, which makes her feel regretful and full of resentment

    [2] "Recalling Plum Blossoms" by Li Shangyin. Poem

    Xu Susu came to Ji Xu's room with Du Shiniang's letter, and told him: "Du Shiniang, a famous lady from Yangzhou, admires your talent very much, and she wrote you a letter."

    Ji Xu took the envelope, pulled out the letterhead, and read it.  Xu Susu stood by his side, not intending to leave at all.

    After reading the letter, Ji Xu put the letter paper on the table, and seeing Xu Susu still standing still, he asked with a surprised look: "Miss, are you okay?"

    Xu Susu said: "Mr. Ji, do you want to write something to Miss Du? Let me take it back to her, so I can have an explanation!"

    Ji Xu let out an "oh", then spread out the letter paper, thought for a moment, and then wrote a five-jue "Reminiscence of Plum":

    "Stay fixed at the end of the world, Yiyi to Wuhua;

    Samuume is the most hateful, and it is often used as last year's flower.  "

    While writing, he explained the general meaning of the poem to Susu to avoid Du Shiniang's misunderstanding¡ªwe both love plum blossoms, but plum blossoms give you and me different feelings.

    I often drift in foreign lands. In the cold winter, I can see a glimpse of spring in advance, which will give me a moment of comfort, and make me feel infinite attachment and yearning for spring from the bottom of my heart.

    But it always blooms first in spring, and when the flowers bloom, the flowers wither and fragrance is exhausted.  In addition to my regret, I can't help but resent it.

    why?

    Because it is too similar to my experience: early wisdom in youth, early literary name, early admission to Cody However, a series of misfortunes and blows followed, which made my hair prematurely gray at a young age, making me  The mood is also quite decadent

    [3] "Butterfly Love Flower. Feng Qiwu" Liu Yong. Ci

    Seeing the reply letter from Susu, Du Shiniang expressed deep sympathy for Ji Xu's misfortune, and felt more love for his talent: how can I, Du Shiniang, miss such a lovely person?  !

    But how to get close to him?

    Du Shiniang thought hard, and thought: I must break the routine and take the initiative to date him.  Because for men of the "Mensao" type, "tryst" might be more to his taste than other methods.

    The ancients paid attention to "the intimacy between men and women", so the "dating" at that time more or less had a little bit of "stealing" in it. This state, for elegant men, feels good.

    This kind of "tryst"-style meeting between men and women requires finding an inaccessible place and doing it secretly.

    Like today's men, the ancients also needed to carefully consider the details of "dating":

    For example, when, where, and in what way should we proceed step by step to a series of stages such as hugging, kissing, and finally having a relationship.

    Of course, these specific details are carefully designed and controlled by men, and their desire entanglements and mental torture are far greater than those of women.

    But for Ji Xu, who is currently depressed, it is impossible to think about it.  What's more, it's women who take the initiative to date men.

    Du Shiniang scolded with a strange smile: "Okay, you poor man!"  Let me consider all these for you, you just need to be obedient1.4 meters, construction area of ??3219 square meters.  The interior of the Yellow Crane Tower is supported by 72 columns, and the exterior has 60 angles extending outward. The roof is covered with more than 100,000 yellow glazed tiles.

    ?Outside the Yellow Crane Tower, a batch of auxiliary buildings, such as cast bronze yellow crane shapes, pagodas, archways, porches, pavilions, etc., make the main building more magnificent.  There are also Baiyun Pavilion, Xiang Pagoda, stele corridor, mountain gate and other buildings around the main building.  The whole building has a unique national style, exuding the spirit, temperament and charm of traditional Chinese culture.  It complements the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge at the foot of Snake Mountain, and you can have a panoramic view of the three towns of Wuhan from the top of the tower.

    The reason why the Yellow Crane Tower is named "Yellow Crane" is that the original building was built on Huanghuji, and later generations pronounced "hu" as "crane".  One is said to be the legend of "immortal yellow crane" with magical color.  During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, fairy tales prevailed, and fairy tales about the Yellow Crane Tower were also formed against the background of the development of ghost novels about "strange powers and gods".  The legend of the Immortal Crossing the Crane first appeared in the works of Zu Chongzhi, a scientist in the Southern Dynasties.  The "Guest Riding a Crane" in his "Shu Yi Ji" was later compiled and recorded in "Ancient Novels Go Shen" by Lu Xun.

    There is also a legend that the original site of the Yellow Crane Tower is at Huanghe Jitou, Snake Mountain, Wuchang, Hubei, which was originally a hotel opened by the Xin family.  In order to thank her for the kindness of a thousand cups, a Taoist priest drew a crane on the wall before leaving, and told it to come down and dance for fun.  Since then, there have been a lot of guests and business is booming.  Ten years later, the Taoist came back and played the flute. The Taoist stepped on the yellow crane and went straight to the sky.  In order to commemorate the fairy who helped her get rich, Xin built a tower on his site and named it "Yellow Crane Tower".  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
