The auspicious time has arrived, and the saint raised his hand, and the originally noisy banks of the Yujiang River calmed down. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoEvery year, the dragon boat race is selected in the most open part of the Yujiang River, and at this time, sixteen fleets have lined up in a straight line on the calm river.

Chang Gonggong respectfully handed the drumstick tied with red silk to the saint, and the saint stood up and walked to the middle of the stands, in front of the red lacquer dragon pattern drum, raised his hand, and slammed it hard towards the drum surface.

Lan Xi noticed that the saint was a little short of breath, and he punched with great momentum, but when he arrived at the drum surface, he was a little unable to continue.

But the drum was made by the Shanggong Bureau, and the materials, craftsmen, and skills were all the best, which made up for the lack of strength of the saint. Even if it was a light knock, the drum surface vibrate, or a loud and distant drum sound on both sides of the quiet Yujiang River, echoing on both banks, as if there was an inexplicable awe, knocking on the heart, even if it was Lanxi, there was a momentary shock.

The scene was silent, and in an instant, on the river surface, the sixteen dragon boats, red, orange, yellow and green, were like arrows off the string, reflecting the river surface as smooth as a mirror. And the riverbank, which had been quiet for a moment, also made a noise in an instant, and those who bet on it were inevitable to follow the speed of the fleet they bought, or be excited, or frustrated.

It was Lan Xi, who was an outsider, but he couldn't help but be infected by this atmosphere, and when the fleets that were far ahead were about to reach the end, he became excited.

With a "bang", the first dragon boat to arrive sounded the gong, and the eight teams in the final round of the preliminary round have been decided.

The fleets of King An's Mansion and King Qi's Mansion were unsurprisingly listed, with the Chen family, the Jia family, the Geng family, and the Junwang Mansion each one, and the Ping Wangfu ranked seventh, and the distance from the Shen family narrowly advanced to the finals.

This result was not surprising, and everyone in the stands was smiling, no matter what they thought in their hearts.

The saint stroked his beard under his chin with satisfaction, and said with a smile, "This boss and the second boss formed a fleet for the first time, and they won the first battle, and their performance was good, and it seems that they have worked hard." ”

King An and King Qi brothers were both busy getting up and clenching their fists. One said, "Father and Emperor praise falsely." The other said, "Don't dare to sweep my father's prosperity." ”

The saint smiled even more, "Last year, it was the emperor's uncle's mansion that won the first place, right?" This year, it seems that the future life is terrifying, and Uncle Huang has to cheer up. ”

"King An and King Qi have worked hard, and the old minister is not growing, and it is a great luck to be able to enter the finals this year." And the king of the county hurriedly bowed his hand.

Whether it's humility or sycophancy, anyway, the saint is very happy to hear it, and he can't stop laughing.

The Queen Mother on the side said with a smile, "Last year, the Shengshang's Caitou was won by the king of the county, and this year, it's not interesting to compare it like this." The holy lottery has already been prepared, and there is only one, which is naturally obtained by the leader. I heard that the other side of the bank has come to open a gambling game, bet on which team to win, five coins and silver a bet, it sounds very interesting, if not, we will also follow suit? ”

The Queen Mother's words seemed to be on a whim, but others did not dare to listen to them on a whim. The smiles on their faces remain the same, but their thoughts are different.

Shengshang's eyes flashed slightly, and he smiled and made a filial son, "The queen mother's method sounds very interesting, you can give it a try, I will be the owner, but, since you want to add color, don't be too stingy!" Five coins and silver are a bet, and everyone present can't take it! ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand for Grandpa Chang to prepare.

After a while, Father-in-law Chang came up with two little eunuchs with pen and paper, and the Queen Mother smiled again, "Since it was proposed by the mourning family, the mourning family will come first." The last competition, the palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, and the mourning family is really not easy to choose, so I secretly grabbed a lot just now, ......" said while handing a folded piece of paper to Chang Gonggong, after Chang Gonggong took it, he quietly unfolded it and looked at it, and then quietly handed it to the little eunuch behind him, and the little eunuch meticulously wrote it down on the paper.

The queen mother started up, and the other palace concubines and relatives also followed suit, but most of everyone's attention was on the paper of the little eunuch's record, and they didn't know who they bought.

Only Lan Xi has no pressure at all, whether it is King Qi or King An, in a dragon boat race, it doesn't matter who wins or loses, her family has also entered the finals. Naturally, I bought my own.

After a while, everyone made a bet. Xu is because of this, there is more sense of participation, this time, when the drum beats again, even Lan Xi couldn't help but sit upright, peeking around, everyone's eyes are staring at the river, and some people's handkerchiefs are crumpled!

At first, the eight dragon boats were quite in unison, a few oars rowed, and a few gradually fell behind. Since Hejun Wangfu was able to come out on top last year, he naturally has that strength, and Anwangfu and Qi Wangfu are full of strength today, so they are naturally holding on tightly. What is surprising is that Ping Wangfu, who did not perform very well in the preliminary round, was in excellent condition in this game. On the contrary, the Geng family's fleet has fallen behind, and it is not disappointing to say that it is not so much, but Lan Xi is not so expectant about the result.

However, after a few breaths, when the gong at the end was sounded again, Lan Xi was still shocked like everyone else.

The winner was not either the Anwangfu and the Qi Wangfu, nor the Hejun Wangfu, but the Pingwang Mansion. Pingwangfu, which had been lagging behind, actually exerted its strength in the last few tens of meters, overtaking the three fleets in front in one fell swoop. It was too fast, so fast that it had a feeling that was completely different from Fang Cai's tepid performance, whether it was deliberately hidden earlier, or it was an extraordinary performance.

It seems that it's not just the eldest and second who have worked hard this time. Lao Qi is now grown up, and he also wants to win. Shengshang's eyes stared at the river for a long time, smiled meaningfully, and looked at Zhao Yudao.

Zhao Yu was also looking at the river, but he frowned, as if he was a little puzzled, and even more uneasy. Hearing the saint's words, his eyebrows jumped, and he hurriedly replied, "Uncle Huang's sweaty and bloody nephew who has just tamed the Taifu Temple has been in love for a long time, so he told them to try their best to fight, but it was just a bit of luck, but I didn't think that it was so lucky, I could actually win." Then, with a smile, he looked at King An and King Qi with different expressions, but they all looked at him with an inquiring and wary gaze, pretending not to understand the look in their eyes, Zhao Yu smiled and said, "Big brother, second brother!" The younger brother agreed. "That casual appearance is really like a young brother who asks his brother for something he loves.

Lan Xi couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips, and thought with some mockery, his kung fu in this drama was becoming more and more perfect.

Shengshang took a deep look at Zhao Yu, and then said with a smile, "I am willing to lose the bet." If your two brothers lose, they will lose, and they will not be able to afford to lose. As for the color head, since I have promised it a long time ago, I will naturally not break my word. You go to the Taifu Temple to lead the horse. It's just that I always thought that Lao Qiwen was weak and didn't like to ride and shoot, but I didn't think about it, but I thought about it? ”
