The game of guessing lantern riddles has never been played before, and she can't help but feel a little novel for a while, her eyes rolled, and another thought came to her heart.

"Lord, let's go ...... too" Before she finished speaking, she looked back and found that Duan Yi was not behind her, so she tiptoed to see that the person was standing outside the crowd.

She squeezed out and walked up to Duan Yi and pulled him into the crowd together, "Lord Wang, there are riddles inside, why don't we try it too?" ”

Duan Yi was caught off guard by her hand, but quickly adjusted his position, and in the blink of an eye, he squeezed forward with Zhongqing.

Zhongqing looked at Duan Yi a little mischievously, and said a little provocatively: "Lord Wang, why don't we try to compete?" See who's awesome? ”

Duan Yi looked at the stall with a blank face, and the word "refuse" was clearly written in his eyes, obviously not agreeing.

Zhongqing and Duan Yi have been together for a long time, and they know that he just looks terrible, but in fact, it is quite good, so she is also bold, and she doesn't care whether he agrees or not, and as soon as she reaches out, she tears off her money bag and throws it to the boss.

"Boss, I've packed these riddles, with this son!" She is a little domineering, I don't know if she has been in contact with Duan Yi for a long time, and she even speaks and does things with an attitude that cannot be refused.

The boss took the money bag and opened it to see that the weight in it was not light, but she covered the whole audience alone, what should the other people who signed up do.

Therefore, the boss looked a little embarrassed: "This son, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, you see that this other person is also paying for it, you can't do it all alone." ”

"That's right, the first-come, first-served rule doesn't move, if you want to guess, you can wait for the next round, we have all paid!" The boss's words attracted the echo of others, who were also dissatisfied with Zhongqing's move.

The color of the overnight tour of the Liuyan Boat is a rare opportunity for them to see the ordinary people, and it costs a lot of silver to go to the Liuyan Boat to drink a cup of tea on weekdays, and now there is such a good opportunity to board the boat to play, how can they let others take it unfairly.

Zhongqing didn't expect that her words would cause so much controversy, and there were only five people to sign up, and she started too late, and she had already lost her position, which was a little regretful.

Thinking that it was really wrong for him to do this, he was just about to reach out and get the money back, but Duan Yi raised his hand to stop her.

"Breeze!" Duan Yi screamed, and Qingfeng immediately appeared behind him when he heard the sound.

"Master!" Qingfeng bowed his head and waited for the man's command.

"Go, get this done." Duan Yi commanded, Qingfeng understood that he had heard the ins and outs of the matter in the back, so he didn't ask anything.

Qingfeng stepped forward and asked the boss: "May I ask who are the five people who signed up in the first round?" ”

The boss was shrouded by the tall figure of the breeze, he swallowed his saliva, didn't understand what he was going to do, and couldn't say a word for a long time.

Qingfeng asked again impatiently, and under the pressure of his eyes, the boss had to tremble and stretched out his finger to point at the five people who had signed up.

"Good!" Qingfeng smiled, turned around and took out a bag from his arms and threw it to one of the five people, "This money is enough for you to go to the Smoke Boat to play, can you give up your place now?" ”

The person who took the bag opened it and saw that it contained a large number of silver tickets, enough for the five of them to go to the smoke boat!

The five people were frightened by Qingfeng's generous move, and then looked at the masked man next to Qingfeng, who was extraordinary at a glance, and since they had obtained benefits, they didn't dare to say a few more words, so they ran away after taking the money.

"Well, now my master and this girl can participate, right?" Qingfeng quickly dealt with those people, and turned to say to the boss again.

The boss was embarrassed, how could he not see the identity of this group of people after so many years of business, he wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, and hurriedly invited him.

Zhongqing gave Qingfeng a thumbs up in his heart, he is really efficient in doing things, and he will never talk nonsense with you about things that can be solved with money.

(Qingfeng thought to himself: I'm just an emotionless ATM...... ）

"Then the prince, let's try to see who can answer more!" As soon as she finished speaking, she didn't care whether Duan Yi answered or not, and picked up the brush with her little hand and began to brush and write out the mysteries.

"There is no other thing in the sky, and every family has a ...... Person! ”

"After a long rain, the beginning of the sun...... Yesterday! ”

"What is the profit from selling charcoal...... Abundant! ”

Zhong Qing muttered in a low voice, Banzhu Xiang's kung fu has solved a lot of mysteries, the first half of the riddle is quite simple, but the more you go to the back, the more difficult it is, and it is slightly difficult to solve it if she is as smart as her.

Guessing the lantern riddle is also a prescribed time, the time of a pillar of incense, whoever solves the more will win, if the time is not over to solve all can continue to add the riddle, until a pillar of incense burns out, the final winner is determined by the number of riddles solved.

Time passed quickly, a pillar of incense had burned two-thirds of the way, and it took Zhong Qing to roughly count more than twenty, and the more she went to the back, the more difficult it became, she needed to think about it to know the answer.

looked up and secretly glanced at Duan Yi, and found that he quickly wrote a series of riddles without blinking his eyes, and more than ten puzzles had been solved in the blink of an eye!

Damn, is this guy still human? Write without thinking about it, don't you worry about writing it wrong?

Zhong Qing was surprised in his heart, just stunned for a moment, a pillar of incense burned a lot, and there was still the length of the last thumb knuckle.

She didn't have time to look at others, so she lowered her head and hurriedly picked up the pen to solve the puzzle, during which the man looked at the "struggling" woman through the corner of his eye, and a smile was outlined at the corner of his mouth.

"It's time, you two, you can stop writing!" The boss struck the gong and drum, and the two people who heard the sound stopped writing at the same time, and the paper was full of answers.

The boss took the answers of the two and compared them carefully, the man unlocked one hundred and twenty, the woman unlocked ninety-six, and it was only a pillar of incense to unlock so much, which is really admirable.

Zhongqing was a little frustrated, she didn't need the boss to announce that she knew that she must have lost, and she knew that she was hopeless just from the number of answers on the paper.

"I declare that the first round of the lantern riddle competition is the winner for the man!" Since the boss didn't know Duan Yi's name, he had to distinguish by gender.

Duan Yi, who heard the result, was not surprised, but just looked at Zhong Qing with his arms slightly lazy.

"Hehe, which, this round of lottery is a night tour of the smoke boat, I don't know ...... this son" The boss looked a little embarrassed, he didn't finish speaking, because the man's previous move to give money was that there was no shortage of this lottery head, and now that he has won, the boss doesn't know how to give this lottery head.

Qingfeng saw the boss's embarrassment, he stood up and said for Duan Yi: "The boss is polite, this competition is only for interest, as for the color head, the boss can keep it for the next round of competition." ”

When the boss heard this, he thanked him again and again, thinking that rich people are really different, money can be squandered at will, who still cares about you.

"Alright, it's almost time, can I go?" Duan Yi walked over and said to Zhong Qing, who was depressed, and after playing, he guessed the lantern riddles, and it was time to go to the banquet.

Zhongqing understood that she was not the kind of person who cared about victory or defeat, and it was not a big deal to lose to the man in front of her, so she quickly adjusted her mentality and went to Yuzhou Lake.

The lantern riddle guessing on the street is just a small episode between the two, tonight's is to go to the banquet set by the Chu Emperor, Duan Yi and his party stopped and stopped, and finally came to Yuzhou Lake.

Yuzhou Lake is very vast, and it is impossible to see the edge, and a small pavilion is set up on the left side of the lake for people to rest and watch.

Because it is night, there are many pairs of beautiful people playing lotus lanterns at the lakeside, and the lake is illuminated by the candle flame of the lotus lantern, shining like a little starlight.

There are also many painting boats wandering on the lake, each of which is extremely exquisite, and the singing and dancing music in the painting boat is endless, and the festival is celebrated with singing and dancing.

"It's Duan, but it's Lord Duan?"

Just as a few people were admiring the surrounding scenery, several soldiers in iron armor walked up to them and asked.

Qingfeng stepped forward and nodded, and handed them the invitation in his arms, and after checking the invitation to make sure that there was no problem, the soldier led a few people in the other direction.

The royal painting boat can't be the same as ordinary people, Yuzhou Lake is so big, and they can't occupy the pleasure alone and not let others play, so the Chu Emperor specially set aside an area to distinguish it.

The soldiers led them to the depths of Yuzhou Lake, which was an area under royal jurisdiction, and was also heavily guarded by heavy troops, so it can be said that this side of Yuzhou Lake was surrounded by water.

After walking for a long time, I saw a painting boat moored at the shore of the lake, the painting boat was lit up with lights, the brightness was abnormal, even the lake water was irradiated by the sparkling, the ship pillar carved dragon and phoenix, and the top was painted with bright yellow paint, which was really a royal style.

The soldier led the way here and consciously left, Duan Yi took a cursory look at the entire ship, many places on the ship were guarded, it seemed to be to prevent someone from falling into the water, but in fact it was to protect the emperor's safety.

Duan Yi walked in front, Zhong Qing followed him to the left, the two got on the boat side by side, followed by Qingfeng and Feihua, and the rest were blocked from the boat and not allowed to take a step forward.

"Lord Wang, this Great Chu Royal Sect is really nothing compared to you!" Zhong Qing sighed, her eyes peeked at the surrounding environment, just like Duan Yi, she saw that there were soldiers guarding everywhere, and she secretly wrote down these locations in case of accidents.

Duan Yi didn't speak, only glanced at the woman with the corner of his eye, and saw her excited appearance and didn't stop her from looking around.

"King Duan is here, and this palace has been waiting for a long time!" Not long after the two of them stepped on the boat, the prince heard the sound, nodded politely to them, and said hello.

Duan Yi also nodded, his eyes did not fluctuate, and his tone was light: "Let the prince wait for a long time, there was a delay on the way, I hope you will forgive me!" ”

Hearing this, the crown prince waved his hand casually, and invited them sideways to go inside, "King Duan is polite, the hour has not yet come, sit down first, and the father will be there immediately." ”

As he spoke, he led Duan Yi to the highest floor of the boat, this painting boat is three stories high, and the top floor has the best scenery and the best view!

The ship has already arranged the venue, the dragon seat is set to the east, and the rest are the queen, the prince, the concubine, the prince and so on according to the rank.

Duan Yi belongs to foreign guests, his position is only a little lower than the crown prince, not far from the emperor's position, and it is also a status symbol.

There were already a lot of people on the boat, and since the emperor had not yet arrived, everyone was just sitting down to talk, chat, drink tea, and the festival banquet was so lively before it began.
