On the red carpet, choose cocoon silk to boil, and pick silk to practice red and blue dyeing.
Dye it red and blue, weave it into a carpet and put it on the incense hall.
The incense hall is more than ten feet wide, and the red line is woven into a temple shop.
The color is soft and fragrant, and the thread is soft and empty.
When a beauty sets foot on singing and dancing, her stockings and embroidered shoes follow.
The carpet in Taiyuan is hard and hard, and the mattress in Shudu is thin, brocade and cold.
Not so warm and soft, I come to Xuanzhou every October.
Xuancheng satrap weaves with samples, claiming that he can do his best.
Centurions carry the same burden into the palace, and thick threads cannot be rolled.
Does Xuancheng satrap know? A foot of carpet, 1200 silk!
People who don't know the cold should keep warm, take less clothes and make lichens.
