Xue Guifei's surprise tonight was unexpected by many people.

There were more than 30 male guests present, and it was not very difficult to find the one with a real gold wick from the more than 6,000 hibiscus lamps, and it was a big deal to check them one by one, but the more than 6,000 hibiscus lamps were scattered on the Dingbo Lake, which was two feet deep, so it was another matter.

Do you want them to jump into the lake to find it?

Yu Shu saw the worried faces outside the Water Pavilion, and only a few people looked confident, so he couldn't help but guess Xue Guifei's intention to make such a big battle, could it be just to embarrass these people tonight.

Xin Liu tugged at her sleeve and said, "Although it's summer, the water is so deep, I'm afraid few people dare to jump into the water, what if something happens?" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, the same questioning voice came from the water pavilion:

"Sister's move is ingenious, but this big night, the water is deep and cold, if this group of children want to go into the water to find it, is it a little inappropriate?"

Most of the guests who can enter tonight's banquet are the sons of Beijing, and their family backgrounds are not ordinary, or there are one or two who have taken water, caught the cold, and may not be distressed by a few old ladies when they go back.

As soon as Concubine Shu said this, she first won the approval of the elderly Duchess of Yasukuni, and then persuaded Xue Guifei to change her mind.

Xue Guifei sat steadily, smiled at them, and said:

"No problem, I have discussed this matter with the saint, the meaning of the saint, there is nothing bad about doing this, there is a hibiscus gentleman's banquet every year. Two golden jade hibiscus, two good fates are autonomous, too easy to get, it will inevitably cause some wishful thinking that should not be there, it is better to be difficult, it is really a heart, and there are thousands of difficulties to fight. ”

At this point, she paused, turned her head and asked Princess Xiang, who was sitting below her:

"Fifth sister, do you think so?"

Princess Xiang, who was sitting below, lowered her head slightly and said, "This should be the truth." ”

"What's more, this palace didn't ask them to jump into the water to find it. There are a few rafts parked on the opposite shore. There are more than a dozen water practitioners in the lake, be cautious, and nothing will go wrong. ”

The last few words were said to the people outside the Water Pavilion.

There are pointed ears. As soon as he heard this, he immediately turned his head. Walked briskly in the direction of the bridge corridor.

Feng Zhaomiao saw this. Hurriedly grabbed Xue Rui and said, "Brother Rui, let's go quickly, it's too late for those rafts to be snatched up." ”

Xue Rui didn't leave in a hurry, but turned his eyes on him and said, "You don't want to fight for the golden jade hibiscus." Raft robbery. ”

"I'm not the most rare and the most beautiful head, but I can't lose people," Feng Zhaomiao swept around, his eyes stopped at Zhu Qingjue, who was not far from him and was also motionless, and deliberately said in a loud voice:

"The big men here tonight, who dare not go to Dingbo Lake once, they just have no courage, it doesn't matter if they win or lose, it's a big deal to be embarrassed."

Zhu Qingjue saw Feng Zhaomiao provoking him, raised his eyebrows disappreciably, turned his face to Xue Rui, and said:

"Lord Xue, don't forget the previous covenant between you and me."

Xue Rui smiled, closed the fan, and shook it at him.

Yu Shu came late, and he didn't know what happened between Xue Rui and Zhu Qingjue, and when he saw this situation, he asked Xin Liu suspiciously:

"What's going on?"

Xin Liu told her about the wins and losses decided by the two of them because of the gentleman's argument before she came.

"So the two of them made a bet, if Zhu Ergongzi won the golden jade hibiscus, Cousin Xue will call himself a villain in front of everyone tonight, on the contrary, if Cousin Xue wins, he will ask Zhu Ergongzi to answer him a few words."

Yu Shu frowned secretly when she heard this, one was surprised that the chess player she saw in the labyrinthine courtyard of Si Tianjian was the only child of Da Tidian, and the other was strange that Xue Rui would be provoked by Zhu Qingjue's words and agreed to bet with him.

Zhu Qingjue made it clear that she was not happy to find Xue Rui, and she didn't know the reason, but Xue Rui wouldn't ask for trouble, unless-

Yu Shu's thoughts flashed, he turned his eyes sideways, looked at the heroic and wild Zhu Ergongzi again, and muttered in his heart:

No, could it be that he is the person?

"These two people are really, they have made a bet, and if they are still standing still stupidly at this time, are they not afraid of being preempted by others?" Xin Liu, who was in a hurry to see the excitement.

Yu Shu looked at the brightly lit Dingbo Lake for a moment, then looked back at Xue Rui's calm and relaxed face, and said cunning in his heart.

A golden core in the six thousand hibiscus lamps, how can it be found by luck alone, let these people who run first go to explore the depths, and the ones who come later are really shrewd

As a group of male guests poured onto the bridge, the number of people outside the water pavilion suddenly decreased by half, and there were only a few male guests left who were still standing outside the water pavilion.

In addition to Xue Rui and Zhu Qingjue, the two temporary opponents, there is Jing Chen, and the eleventh prince Liu Yi.

Seeing the male guests take action, the female guests also looked eager to try.

In the Water Pavilion, Xue Guifei joked with the ladies present for a while, and then turned her head to look at the group of charming girls outside the Water Pavilion.

"Don't stay stunned, you can't come out one by one in this palace, what is good at it on weekdays, don't be stingy at this time, see who can amaze the four tonight, so that everyone is convinced, who can ask for this golden jade hibiscus in the hands of this palace, otherwise, this palace has to keep it until next year."

As soon as the words fell, there was a slight commotion outside the water pavilion, all the women, you look at me, I look at you, all of them have the heart to come forward to show their hands, and they are afraid that they will suffer a loss.

"Sisters, be humble, let me come first."

When Yu Shu heard the sound, he saw a tall girl walking out of the county lord of Xiwen, who was about the same size as her at first glance, but the other party was a little plump.

As soon as the tall girl came out, the female guests who had been surrounding her retreated one after another, and automatically gave way to a vacant space for her to stand in the middle.

"Her name is Cui Xin," Xin Liu saw Yu Shu's eyes, so he told her, "It's Cui Yun's sister who went with you to worship your ancestors." ”

As soon as Yu Shu heard it, he remembered the news he had received from Situ Qinglan - it was said that Cui Yun had a very popular sister, who was fostered in the Xiangwang Mansion when she was a child, and was the same sister as the pampered Xiwen County Lord.

Cui Xin stood up generously and asked the nobles present in the water pavilion for instructions first.

"The woman of our family, since she was a child, has been through the Xuan Jing and Yili, and she has played the compass fortune lot, and she is not as good as the ladies of the noble family who are good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she is by no means useless. Our Cui family can be known as one of the twelve mansions in the capital, with the ancestors to accumulate virtue, pass down a Nayin skill, called 'Lingyan', presumably most of you have heard of it, but have not seen it, the little woman is not talented, with the ancestor of the family through this learning, has been seven years, now the first peek of the door, today to offer ugliness. ”

With a few words, it mobilized everyone's minds, to know that the family heirlooms of the twelve families of the Lu Dao are all secrets that are not passed on, and they are easy not to make a move, it is rare to see, who is not curious?

The elder Duchess of Yasukuni suddenly sat up straight, stared at Cui Xin with great interest, and said to the two palace masters:

"The two mothers know that I was also from a family before I got married, and I had heard of the Cui family's strange science at that time, and my father sighed first, saying that this 'spiritual speech' might as well be renamed 'mind reading'."

"Mind reading?" The corners of Xue Guifei's eyebrows twitched, if she was puzzled.

Duchess Yasukuni didn't explain much, but urged Cui Xin to hurry up and behave.

Cui Xin bowed and said: "Don't be surprised by the two mothers, the little girl still needs to be present to help, and dare to ask the concubine to choose on her behalf to avoid suspicion." ”

This is to find someone to test the "spiritual word".

Xue Guifei's face was interested, swept the faces of the women outside the water pavilion, pointed casually, and said:

"It's you."

Everyone looked in the direction of her finger, but saw that among the red and willow green, there was only one silver light and mist, and the slender white clothes were the most eye-catching, and the beauty was different, no matter how many times they saw it, they still felt amazing.

Yu Shu was pondering Cui Xin, and suddenly saw the jade-like fingers turn towards her, stunned for a moment, and then reacted, looked left and right, and saw the envy on the face of Xin Liu, who saw good things, and Miss Ning's "self-blessed" eyes, I don't know whether to cry or laugh.

She said yes and stepped forward.

When Xue Rui saw this scene, his eyelids jumped halfway, and he looked back at the water pavilion, but saw that Xue Guifei was still so lazy and looked like she was not intentional at all.

Yu Shu didn't recognize Cui Xin, but Cui Xin knew who she was, and smiled at her head-on, not showing any hostility.

Yu Shu had already decided that she and Xiwen were the same raccoon dogs, and she was not confused by her at all, and she also returned a hypocritical smile, and opened her mouth to ask:

"I don't know how I can help?"

"Female operator, wait a minute."

Cui Xin asked for instructions from the water pavilion, took out a table from the nearby flower room, and prepared pen and ink before signaling Yu Shu to step forward and stand on the edge of the table.

"The moonlight flowers are good tonight, there are countless fragrant grasses in the back garden of the Dingbo Pavilion, no less than a hundred and ten kinds, whether it is a weak willow or a small Jiao, please choose one by yourself by the female operator, and when I turn my back, you can write it on the paper again, and don't let people see it."

Cui Xin said that, then turned around, his eyes were thinking about the front, and closed them gently.

Yu Shu was suspicious, stroked the paper on the table with one hand, and saw that there was nothing strange, so he bent down, covered it with his sleeve, and wrote down what he thought according to Cui Xin's proposal.

"I've got it written."

When Cui Xin heard this, he didn't turn around, but still turned his back to her and asked an irrelevant question:

"Can the female operator tell me whether you like the sun or the rain?"

Yu Shu looked at her back and thought for a while before saying, "It's raining." ”

As she spoke, she could clearly see Cui Xin's ears move slightly, and after a while, she heard her say firmly:

"The female operator is on paper, but it's written Impatiens grass? Please pick up the paper, and please look at it for me. ”

Yu Shu frowned, his face was slightly strange, and he moved the palm covering the paper away, picked up the paper, and exposed it to everyone.

A group of people curiously surrounded the front, and then provoked a burst of exclamations and discussions, just because the words written on it in black and white were indeed "Phoenix Fairy". (To be continued.) )
