Chapter 174: It's Good to Be Happy!
Those who can enter this palace and participate in this Lantern Festival palace banquet, everyone knows that Princess Jinyun's temperament is not so easy to deal with, since she said without scruples in front of everyone that she will not be spared, I am afraid that it will be troublesome in the future.
Not only Li Xinghua, but Sheng Yunhang, Zhang Haocheng, and Luo Qier also expressed the same worry, and even Li Xingming, who has always been not afraid of heaven and earth, also nodded.
Han Jiangxue smiled indifferently: "It's okay, there are so many people who hate me that I have to go, anyway, I don't point to her to support her." โ
One sentence was obviously ridiculous and indifferent, Luo Qi'er had the simplest temperament, and was soon amused by Han Jiangxue. The laughter of the silver bells was extremely soothing. In this way, everyone involuntarily laughed, and the originally slightly tense atmosphere became relaxed again.
Han Jiangxue's words are also reasonable, this girl has always been bold, and the people who offend are not one or two, even the prince has been carried, so what's the harm with one more Princess Jinyun?
"That's it, what are you afraid of, don't you still have a good master? Even the emperor has to be polite to the old emperor's uncle, are you still afraid of Jinyun's little girl? Li Xingming was muddy again, shouting as if he was afraid that the world would not be chaotic.
I didn't know what else I was going to talk about, but I was knocked by Li Xinghua with a big tie, and soon he had to close his stinky mouth.
Han Jiangxue didn't care, her expression was quiet and smiling, she never regarded the old emperor's uncle as a life-saving backer, but she was not in a bad mood by the threat of a little princess.
Mo Li didn't know if he had come, Han Jiangxue saw some familiar but not familiar faces from time to time, but he didn't see Mo Li. Calculate the time. There was still a while before the official banquet, and that guy probably wouldn't have come too early.
Slowly and leisurely to the end of the lantern festival, at this time the big open space in front of Qingxiang Palace has become a sea of lights. Dazzling beyond description. In the middle of the clearing, a golden monkey lantern that is almost more than three people tall is vivid, attracting many people to stop and watch.
This year is the Year of the Monkey, and the final lantern riddle with the big prize will come from this big monkey after a while. And at this moment, it is not yet time to announce the lantern riddle, and many people are just curious onlookers.
"I heard that when the riddle is finally announced, the riddle will pop out of the monkey's mouth, and how it will come out is still a secret. It should also be a great highlight. Li Xinghua, the prince of the world, was obviously more aware of these things in the palace, so he naturally introduced them to several other people.
Everyone will be fine, watching and guessing how the mystery may appear. But obviously no one can give a very positive answer.
"What do you want to do so complicated, after a while, you just spit out a long cloth scroll from the mouth of the golden monkey, and what is written on it is just a riddle." A smiling voice sounded from behind several people, and the ninth princess had already walked to their side at some point.
Let's talk about it. The ninth princess walked directly towards Han Jiangxue, who turned around. happily pulled her and said, "Jiang Xue, why did you come, I've been waiting for you for a long time." There are a lot of interesting things I haven't heard from you last time, but this time you have to talk to me about it. โ
The Ninth Princess and Han Jiangxue are only one side, and everyone doesn't know when Han Jiangxue is so familiar with the Ninth Princess, but no matter what, it is much better than Princess Jinyun's way of meeting.
"It's rare that the ninth princess doesn't dislike it, this is Jiang Xue's honor." Han Jiangxue remembered the only piano class she had taken together last time, and she was just as kind and lovely as Luo Qi'er. I can't help but be kind.
On such a night, there is no need to be rigid about the number of rituals and the like. The others also greeted the Ninth Princess happily one by one.
"Why don't you reveal the mystery to us first?" Prince Zhuang and Princess Zhuang's biological mother, Concubine Ruan, are friends with handkerchiefs, so Li Xingming is naturally familiar with the Ninth Princess, and with thick skin, he simply inquired directly about the mystery from the Ninth Princess.
When the ninth princess heard this, Li Vortex smiled lightly: "I have no heart to do this, this year's riddle of the Lantern King is from the six emperor brothers, except for the six emperor brothers and the queen mother, no one else knows." The queen mother said early in the morning that the mystery of the Six Emperor Brothers was particularly interesting, and if no one could solve the mystery of the Six Emperor Brothers, then the colorful head of the phoenix blood stone would belong to the Six Emperor Brothers! โ
"In that case, none of us will have to fight the idea of that phoenix bloodstone." When Li Xingming heard this, he looked like he had no drama and sang, if it were him, he would have to try his best to come up with the most partial, crooked and difficult to understand!
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help laughing, Luo Qi'er didn't have to worry about hurting his self-esteem or anything when he spoke, and said don't think of everyone else as thinking like him, and for a while he couldn't help laughing.
The seventh princess and Han Jiangxue said a few more words, but then they were called away by the personal palace maid. I heard that her mother called her again, and her little mouth was about to go to the sky, so she just said that every time she wanted to talk to Han Jiangxue more, she always ran into her mother looking for her.
But no matter how reluctant she was, she still left, Han Jiangxue's eyes turned slightly, but she didn't say anything.
When it was almost time to reveal the mystery, I saw Mo Li's figure, and there was a man next to him who looked a little older, with a jade face and an elegant face.
Mo Li soon saw Han Jiangxue, and he didn't shy away from anything, and walked directly to Han Jiangxue and the others with his companions.
Sheng Yunhang and the others took the initiative to greet the man beside Mo Li, and after hearing them call each other, Han Jiangxue knew that this man was Mo Li's brother-in-law, Mo Yu, the prince of Mo Wangfu.
Strange, Han Jiangxue said secretly, these two brothers have nothing in common.
After a simple greeting, Mo Yu looked at Han Jiangxue, although it was the first time they met, but he saluted Han Jiangxue quite sincerely in front of everyone and said: "This is Miss Han, I have never had the opportunity to thank you in person for saving my life, and I finally have the pleasure of seeing Miss Han today, Mo Yu is rude!" โ
As soon as these words came out, except for Han Jiangxue and Mo Li, of course the others didn't understand what Mo Yu said about the life-saving grace, and they were all puzzled. But it's hard to ask out loud.
Han Jiangxue didn't expect Mo Li to tell Mo Yu about the incident a year ago, although he was a little surprised, he didn't feel that there was anything too inappropriate. This shows that the relationship between the two brothers of the Mo family is extraordinary.
"Yu Shizi is polite. Jiang Xue just said casually that day, after all, it was Yu Shizi Jiren's natural appearance, so he didn't have to care. She replied with a smile, and she didn't know if it was because of Mo Li's relationship, so she felt very close to Mo Yu.
"Hey, this isn't the first time you two have met, when did you save someone's life?" Li Xingming is thick-skinned. didn't think more than others, so he asked Han Jiangxue directly.
However, Han Jiangxue naturally didn't plan to say anything in detail. happened to be about to reveal the mystery, so he naturally avoided Li Xingming's questioning through this matter.
"Do you want that bloodstone?" Mo Li didn't know when he had quietly stood beside Han Jiangxue, and he didn't deliberately avoid the others and asked Han Jiangxue.
Originally, several people had already looked at the golden monkey, and their eyes couldn't help but look at Han Jiangxue and Mo Li.
"Are you sure?" Han Jiangxue also didn't care about the eyes of others, and asked Mo Li with a smile. But he didn't say whether he wanted it or not.
"Give it a try!" Moli chuckled. didn't say it completely, but everyone was extremely surprised to see his rare warm smile when he looked at Han Jiangxue, as if he was from another person, distant and unfamiliar.
Zhang Haocheng's eyes were slightly dark, and he didn't let himself look at it anymore, but his eyes were firmly staring at the mystery that was about to come out, and he became more and more determined.
The atmosphere in the small circle suddenly became subtle and indescribable, and everyone seemed to realize something, but they did not expect to see it in front of the public. Of course. Only Mo Yu looked normal, even with an indescribable happiness. It seems that he is happy and proud of his brother.
"If I do, I'd like to give it to Qi'er." Han Jiangxue said softly, thinking that if that girl entered the palace in the future, she really had nothing to do for her. Since the girl likes it, if she really gets it, she naturally wants to give it to Luo Qi'er.
Hearing Han Jiangxue's words, Luo Qi'er couldn't help but be stunned, her eyes couldn't help but get wet, and Li Xinghua and the others looked at everything in front of them even more strangely, and they really didn't know what to say.
However, Mo Li smiled lightly again, and said something that made people almost fall through their eyes: "It's good if you're happy!" โ
At this moment, some people's hearts are like knives, some people are suddenly gloomy, some people are strange, and some people are extremely happy.
Li Xingming sighed secretly in his heart, this country is really talented, he always thought that he was the most unruly, but he didn't expect to meet two more excessive today, isn't this flirting ambiguously in front of everyone? Han Jiangxue, that girl, has always regarded the rules as nothing, why did even a guy like Mo Li who couldn't move by thunder become even more falling than him?
The mystery finally came out, as the seventh princess said before, it was indeed a large piece of cloth scroll spit out from the mouth of the golden monkey, and there were more than 20 big characters written on it.
"Three Jin are called Xin, three water are called Miao, and three people are called Zhong, so what are the three ghosts called?"
As soon as the mystery came out, everyone started to talk about it, wondering how such a strange topic could come up this year. The combination of three ghost words can't form a word at all, and it's clear that there is no answer!
Just when everyone was puzzled, Mo Li had already walked to the spotlight and wrote his answer on the paper. The palace people quickly numbered the answers first, and then waited for others to solve the puzzle within the specified time, and then presented them together.
Soon, about seven or eight people came forward to write the riddle, according to the rules, if several people answered the riddle at the same time, then the first person to answer correctly was the winner. In other words, Mo Li is the first person to give an answer, as long as he is right, then others will not be able to compete with him even if they guess the same.
The solution to the problem has all been submitted by the palace people to the person in charge, and everyone will naturally discuss it while the answer is announced. Many people recognized that the first person to write the answer was Moli, the concubine of King Mo's Mansion who was a blockbuster at last year's poetry meeting, which made Zhou Laodu look sideways.
If there was no poetry meeting, maybe everyone wouldn't have too much side eyes on Mo Li, even if it was the first solution to the question, it was only impossible to answer it correctly, but now most people's ideas have become different.
"Mo Li, Haocheng, the two of you have handed over the mystery, what are you writing?" Sheng Yunhang asked curiously. This will no longer affect the outcome, so it doesn't hurt to ask.
Zhang Haocheng smiled, but did not respond, while Mo Li asked Han Jiangxue, "What do you think?" โ
Han Jiangxue was not uncomfortable, and said generously: "It is impossible for the three ghost words to form any word together, so this topic obviously refers to something else, and it is quite funny." I don't know what other people think, but if it were me, of course I would have to call for help when I saw three ghosts in front of me. โ
As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but look at each other, looking like they hadn't expected it before. If that's the answer, then the idea is really interesting and new.
"I knew you were going to win that lottery." Mo Li smiled, obviously acquiescing that his answer was consistent with Han Jiangxue.
When Han Jiangxue heard this, she grinned and said, "It's better to run faster if you want to, if I go by myself, I'm afraid that someone will be relieved of me." โ
Zhang Haocheng didn't squeak from beginning to end, his answer was the same as Mo Li and Han Jiangxue, but what was it, he was ranked after Mo Li, and he lost no matter what!
It's just that Zhang Haocheng seems to have matured a lot now, and no matter how much he thinks about it in his heart, he doesn't show anything on his face, as if he has never come and never deliberately cared about anything. He is no longer the hairy boy who only fights for the day, he knows that he is now taking a long path that requires endurance and perseverance!
Feeling Zhang Haocheng's surprisingly calm gaze, Mo Li looked sideways slightly, nodded slightly, but didn't say much else. The two looked at each other and looked away, as if they had seen through each other's thoughts, calm but never backing down.
It didn't take much effort for the six princes to come out and announce the mystery in public, and Mo Li really didn't disappoint those who were optimistic about him this time, the word "help" made him win the phoenix blood stone, and became the first official small focus of tonight's Lantern Festival.
And Mo Li didn't have any intention of being low-key and evasive, and took the piece of Colored Phoenix Blood Stone he won and sent it directly to Han Jiangxue's hands in the eyes of everyone who was extremely shocked.
