CHAPTER XXIV

Heh, Shen Nian chuckled, "I didn't say I wouldn't dare." Since someone wants to take the initiative to compete with me, I will naturally agree, so as not to blow the face of the young ladies. But what I want to say is that if you want to compete with me, you should tell me, not ask the princess from beginning to end. If you only ask the princess, then it is better to let the princess compete with you. ”

"You ......" The woman in the yellow shirt didn't expect this Shen Nian to be so sharp-tongued.

Xi Zhao's hand tightly grasped the armrest on the chair, no, Shen Nian must be allowed to compete, let her be embarrassed, I don't believe that she can win, and she must be embarrassed.

"So what do you want?" Xizhao gritted his teeth and said word by word.

"Not very good. I just wanted these young ladies to ask me if I would like to compete with them. Shen Nian said clearly.

"Okay." Xi Zhao nodded and gestured to the woman in the yellow shirt.

The woman in the yellow shirt gritted her teeth, looking unwilling.

"Huh? You're so unwilling to compete. That's it. Shen Nian looked at the reluctance on the face of the woman in the yellow shirt and said.

"I didn't." The woman in the yellow shirt immediately argued.

"Oh, I think I'm wrong, so you ask." Shen Nian stood in the center of the field for a long time, waiting for her to ask.

"Haha, I didn't expect Nian'er to be so smart and cute." Jun Wu and Shen Feng said.

"Of course, our little sister is naturally the smartest and cutest." After Shen Feng finished speaking, he glanced at Jun Wu and reminded, "Our little sister has a master, put away your little eyes." ”

Jun Wu was speechless, what kind of little eyes do I have, am I worshipping well, worshipping. Rolled his eyes in his heart, and quietly glanced at Xun Ting, who was sitting next to him, but he didn't expect Xun Ting to also look over, Jun Wu's eyes immediately fluttered, cough cough.

In the center of the field

Shen Nian waited quietly for the woman in the yellow shirt to speak.

Xi Zhao also stared at the woman in the yellow shirt with his eyes.

The woman in the yellow shirt sorted out the expression on her face, bowed her head to Shen Nian and said respectfully, "Miss Shen, the four of us sisters want to compete with you, I don't know what Miss Shen thinks?"

Shen Nian seemed to think about it for a while, and slowly watched the expression change on the yellow-shirted woman's face, Shen Nian smiled slightly, "Okay, I agreed." ”

Xie Daoyou, who was far away from the center of the field, drank tea slowly, this Shen Nian was really smart, so before the competition began, he had already made the woman in the yellow shirt fall behind, and at the same time, when she fell. Xie Daoyu thought about it and glanced at Xie Daolan, who was angry next to him, why is the gap so big. Forget it, since you're your own sister, let's protect it first. However, looking at the light circulating in Xie Daolan's eyes, heh, if you look for death, forget it. Xie Daoyou put down the tea in his hand and watched the development in the center of the field.

"Okay." The woman in the yellow shirt breathed a sigh of relief. Then he said, "First of all, this woman in purple will try the piano with you. ”

The woman in purple stood up, saluted, and looked at Shen Nian, "I know that your ensemble with the Four Princes that day was amazing, and I think so too." Today you play a song with me, and if you can convince me, I will admit defeat. The woman in purple said proudly.

"How can you be convinced?" Shen Nian heard the woman in purple say this, and began to look at the woman in purple carefully.

"If I weep." The woman in purple thought about it, secretly glanced at Xizhao, and said.

Heh, Shen Nian sneered, if this woman is not convinced no matter how well she plays, then she will lose, then this matter will cover up the ensemble between herself and Hansu at the beginning, and it should be a good strategy. But let her cry, Shen Nian touched her chin.

Gao Lingyan looked at Shen Nian with a doting face, this is his own thoughts, he can be alone, he can be cute and coquettish.

"Jean." Shen Nian turned his head to look at Shen Qing. Shen Qing clapped his hands gently, Nian'er had already thought of it. Someone took out the Jiao Weiqin that the emperor had rewarded Shen Nian.

Shen Nian sat at the piano table, and the woman in purple took out the jade flute in her hand.

There was silence in the room. These women who competed with Shen Nian were all outstanding women in all aspects, so this competition was actually very attractive.

Shen Nian plucked the strings casually and said leisurely: "I named this piano Fengming." Zheng, the sound of the guzheng seems to shake the air out of ripples.

The woman in purple played the jade flute. In this kind of competition, whoever starts first has the advantage. Because there is no repertoire, the person who plays the back will be led by the nose by the person in front.

Shen Nian smiled slightly, ignored it, but closed his eyes, remembering a story that his senior brother had told him.

Seeing that Shen Nian didn't care about herself at all, the woman in purple became anxious. Slowly, I don't know how it was Shen Nian's tune in my ears.

The woman in purple only felt that she had become an ordinary official woman, fell in love with a general, and there were many people who liked the general, so after two years of liking, the woman was finally able to talk to the general, but she didn't expect the general to regard her as a friend. But later, I don't know why, the general suddenly hated her, told her that she was just an ordinary friend, don't think about it, and stood in front of her and scolded her personally. She didn't cry, but her heart died. Later, the general went on the expedition, and the news came back that the general had died on the battlefield. She didn't cry, she just went to the general's room, but she didn't expect that the general's room was full of her portraits. She finally cried. The general hoped that he would find a good man to marry, but the general knew that he would not come back, and she would never listen to what the general said this time. She walked a lot of places with the general, she loved the general, he scolded her, she didn't matter. She continued walking, and later jumped off a cliff. During the fall, she laughs as she finds the general she loves waiting for her.

Zheng.

Shen Nianqin stopped, opened his closed eyes, sighed, and glanced at Gao Lingyan in the distance. Unexpectedly, Gao Lingyan also kept looking at her. Shen Nian's original depression in his heart because of this story was all unraveled at this moment, the moment he looked at Gao Lingyan's eyes.

Gao Lingyan silently clenched the teacup, Nian'er, I will never do this, because I will protect you for the rest of your life, don't be sad, I won't let you be sad.

Shen Nian felt the meaning in Gao Lingyan's eyes, Shen Nian smiled, other people's stories are someone else's. This is my life.

"This young lady." Shen Nian gently called the woman in purple.

The woman in purple opened her eyes, she didn't realize that she had just closed her eyes, she seemed to be the woman who fell in love with the general just now, she cried, she touched her cheek, at the moment she didn't seem to have come out of the tune, "I lost." The woman in purple held the jade flute in her hand and turned to leave. Sit in your seat.

Xi Zhao gritted her teeth, she didn't listen to them much at all, she only saw Gao Lingyan looking at Shen Nian gently and dotingly throughout the whole process, which made Xi Zhao even more angry and resentful.

"Miss Shen San, you are indeed amazing, I will compare with you." A woman in blue stood up and said.

Shen Nian nodded, and didn't talk nonsense directly, "Please." ”

The woman in blue felt bored in her heart, originally thought that Shen Nian was going to say something with sharp teeth, but she didn't expect to say nothing, this is looking down on me. The woman in blue thought about it, walked quickly to the drawing paper, picked up the paintbrush, and said to Shen Nian, "Miss Shen San, we take today's flower appreciation conference as the theme."

"Okay." Shen Nian still didn't pay much attention to her.

The woman in blue was furious. Shen Nian raised his eyebrows and ignored it.

Xie Daoyou looked at the woman in blue and Shen Nian at this time, and praised in his heart. Yes, the more this woman in blue wanted to get Shen Nian's conversation, the more Shen Nian ignored her, she didn't seem to be anything, and she was already panicked at this time. Xie Daoyou's eyes were full of appreciation.

Xie Daolan just wanted to talk to Xie Daoyou at this time, but when she looked up, she saw the appreciation of Shen Nian in Xie Daoyou's eyes. Xie Daolan's face was incredible, the eldest sister actually praised Shen Nian, that was the person who harmed herself. Could it be that my eldest sister has something to do with my illness last time. Xie Daoyou glanced at Xie Daolan, and Xie Daolan immediately hid the fierceness in his eyes, and was shocked. Looking at Xie Daoyou's normal face again, I didn't think I noticed it. Xie Daolan was so comforted. Xie Daoyou just breathed a sigh of relief, alas.

......

The woman in blue has already started to paint. Shen Nian stood beside the drawing paper and thought for a while. Then looking at everyone in the field, Shen Nian looked around, there were many people who didn't understand what Shen Nian was going to do, it was very strange. There are also young masters of official families who saw Shen Nian, a talented woman, and immediately posed in order to leave a good impression. But Shen Nian didn't look at it much, only when he saw Shen Qing, Gao Lingyan and the others pause and smile.

Shen Nian looked at the whole scene and picked up the pen.

Time passed minute by minute, and everyone only saw Shen Nian and the woman in blue's pens flying up and down on the snow-white drawing paper. Shen Nian's fingers were as slender and white as green onions, and at this time, he was holding a black paintbrush, and on the snow-white paper, Shen Nian was even more flawless. It can be said that no matter what Shen Nian paints, Shen Nian's current appearance has already won in the hearts of everyone.

"Alright." Shen Nian and the woman in blue said at the same time.

The woman in blue looked frightened, Shen Nian finished writing by herself, and she actually finished it at the same time as herself. It should be spent casually. The woman in blue comforted in her heart.

"Exhibition." The queen commanded.

Several palace maids picked up the paintings of Shen Nian and the woman in blue respectively.

"Wow." When the painting was picked up, it caused everyone in the audience to exclaim.

Even the woman in blue covered her mouth and exclaimed.

I saw that Shen Nian's painting was actually painted by everyone present in the Imperial Garden today. And it's lifelike, and everyone's face is exactly the same as a real person. Everyone's temperament is also different. Even though the flowers painted by the woman in blue are indeed beautiful, they have lost a bit of color in front of Shen Nian's painting.

"Look. This is me. An official woman covered her mouth and smiled at the woman next to her.

"yes, and me."

"And me." Everyone in the audience looked at themselves in amazement in the painting.

The woman in blue also quietly looked at herself in the painting, only to see that she was also painting in the painting, and the charm at this time was indeed like the appearance that the master once praised herself. The woman in blue saw that Shen Nian's painting was not biased, and she felt guilty. Walked directly in front of Shen Nian and saluted, "Miss Shen San, I lost." ”

Shen Nian looked at this woman with a smile, but she was too proud. Shen Nian smiled and shook his head, "It's okay." ”

The woman in blue and Shen Nian looked at each other and smiled.

"Miss Shen San." At this time, a gentle voice called Shen Nian.

Shen Nian looked at the person who came, and saw that the other party was wearing pink clothes. Isn't this the second lady of the Feng family, Feng Nanmin, who is always in a coma.

Feng Nanmin looked at Shen Nian gently, "I'll try my chess skills with you." ”

Shen Nian nodded, didn't think much about it, but when he looked at Gao Lingyan, he saw Gao Lingyan with a helpless expression. Shen Nian seemed to think of something, and his eyes lit up. "Please."

Feng Nanmin said: "Each of us plays a chess game for the other party. In a stick of incense, whoever can break the happiness first will win?"

"Okay." Shen Nian nodded, the person in his memory was also extremely good at chess, and his chess skills were unfathomable.

Shen Nian and Feng Nanmin set up chess games for each other.

The two walked into the arena after going out, looked at each other and smiled, "Please." "Please."

Shen Nian and Feng Nanmin looked at the chess game that walked towards each other. The palace maid quietly lit an incense.

"Miss Shen's explanation is not the most famous 'Orchid Bureau'."

A man in the middle of the field who is good at chess said.

"Orchid Bureau?" The person next to him was very strange to hear, "You can make it clear." ”

"Mrs. Lanxiang, who was famous all over the world, can you know."

"Naturally, that's the best person in the world, who doesn't know."

"It is said that she once went to an orchid garden, but she didn't expect to fall asleep somewhere, and there was an immortal playing chess with her in her dream, and when she woke up, Mrs. Lanxiang hurriedly put out the chess game in the dream, but she couldn't solve it."

"Isn't this Nan Ke's dream, how can a chess game in a dream be solved." The man said questioningly.

"No, because of this matter, Mrs. Lan Xiang also changed her name to the word Lan Xiang, saying that if someone can solve it, she will agree to the other party's three requests."

"This?"

It seems that Miss Shen San has encountered a problem.

Shen Nian listened to the man's words and nodded secretly, yes, the master said the same thing back then. The master said that this puzzle is not difficult, but the difficulty is the human heart. This question requires not an answer, but a destined person.

There are destined people, there are destined people. Shen Nian read silently. The words orchid, immortal, dream, and chess game were wandering in his mind, and suddenly, Shen Nian had a flash of inspiration and found it. Shen Nian quickly put the black and white chess pieces on it.

"Alright." Shen Nian said excitedly. It can be said that the best in Shen Nianqin's calligraphy and painting is the qin and chess. According to Tianqingzi's words, Shen Nian is an out-and-out piano and chess idiot, and when he encounters a lot of piano score and chess games, Shen Nian can study it without sleeping, eating, or drinking. Now Shen Nian has unraveled this "Orchid Bureau." Shen Nian's heart was full of satisfaction.

Feng Nanmin was almost a Shen Nian together. But Feng Nanmin looked at Shen Nian and really unveiled this chess game, not unhappy, but happy.

walked towards Shen Nian, "Miss Shen San, I lost." ”

Shen Nian smiled, he had indeed won. There is nothing to excuse.

"It's not a loss, it's the one who unlocked the chess game of Li Lao." Feng Nanmin said.

"What? Miss Shen San solved Li Lao's chess game. ”

Most of the people only knew that a Miss Shen had solved Li Lao's chess game, and they didn't know much about it, but now listening to Feng Nanmin's words, everyone's hearts were full of amazement and admiration.

If a person is excellent, some people may be jealous, and if a person is too good beyond themselves, it is worship.

Shen Nian chuckled lightly and saluted, "Accept."

"It's your turn." Shen Nian ignored the adoring gazes of the people around him, but looked at the woman in yellow shirt standing aside.

The woman in the yellow shirt swallowed quietly. I didn't expect this Shen Nian to be able to win against the three of them, and he also convinced the three of them. The woman in the yellow shirt glanced at Xi Zhao, and saw that Xi Zhao's face had already turned white.

The woman in the yellow shirt was already beating the drum in her heart at this time. But because Xizhao is Shen Feng, the woman in the yellow shirt had no choice but to step forward.

No, you have to win. The woman in the yellow shirt is the mother of Concubine Xi, just a concubine in the Wang family. In order to survive and no longer be bullied, the woman in the yellow shirt is called Wang Zixin. She thought about how much energy she had spent practicing this calligraphy, and how much bitterness and tears she had made. Gotta win, that's the only way to do that now. Wang Zixin made a decision in her heart.

Gao Lingyan noticed this change in Wang Zixin, but saw Shen Nian shaking his head at himself. Gao Lingyan looked at Shen Nian dotingly, and nodded, you can do whatever you want.

Shen Nian blushed quietly.

"Miss Shen, you were indeed very strong before, you won three handfuls, and my sisters were also convinced, but in this 'book', Miss Shen should be careful." Wang Zixin walked towards Shen Nian, talked to Shen Nian very closely, and inadvertently shot something at Shen Nian from his sleeve.

Shen Nian's eyes darkened, he wanted to ignore this woman and let her lose, but now he is using hallucinogenic drugs, heh, you can't be left. Shen Nian flipped his wrist, but no one noticed.

"Let's write about 'returning to the country'." Wang Zixin said. Returning to the country is a very long article, written by the famous poet Cao Yin, returning to the country, returning to the country, not to the country of the homeland, but to the country of the hometown of the mountains and rivers, written in the process of his tour of the mountains and rivers, because it was written in the mountains and rivers, and many fragments written down were finally gathered by later generations into the so-called "return to the country". Because of the loss, there are very few people who can write the return to the country completely.

"Okay." Shen Nian nodded.

Wang Zixin was proud in her heart, she fainted when she carried this returned fu, so she barely memorized half of it, and she could only use this method to win Shen Nian.

Shen Nian didn't say anything, and he didn't pay much attention to this Wang Zixin, not to give her any psychological pressure, but because there was nothing to look at a dead person. That hallucinogens can make weak-willed people hallucinate and make all kinds of actions, just imagine a woman doing all kinds of indecent actions in public and going directly to suicide.

Shen Nian picked up the pen and began to write. To tell the truth, Tianqingzi has a hobby, which is to collect all kinds of solitary books, this return to the country, Tianqingzi has collected a lot. Besides, Shen Nian has a special talent that he will never forget. Therefore, in Shen Nian's eyes, this question is just written silently.

Shen Nian picked up the pen and began to swing.

Among the flowers, Shen Nian was dressed in a solid-color long skirt, holding a pen and leaning over slightly, with an indifferent expression.

Wang Zixin also buried her head in writing, but compared to Shen Nian's indifference, Wang Zixin looked so uneasy.

......

"Whew." Wang Zixin shook his hand and put the pen down, enough, these are enough. Wang Zixin raised her head, wanting to see the admiring eyes of the expected people, but what she saw was that the admiring eyes of everyone were constantly moving with Shen Nian's pen.

How is she still writing. Wang Zixin frowned, uneasiness flashed in her heart, and when she looked at Xizhao again, she saw Xizhao sitting on a chair, his face pale, looking at his face as if he was looking at the face of a dead man.

Time is still in the past, Shen Nian has been immersed in his own time, with Cao Yin walking through thousands of rivers and mountains, appreciating different scenery and weather.

When the last one fell, Shen Nian put the pen aside, realizing that one handed him a cup of tea, Shen Nian turned his head and just wanted to thank him, when he saw Gao Lingyan's doting smile.

"Brother Yan." Shen Nian was surprised, why did Brother Yan come over, no, when did Brother Yan come over.

Gao Lingyan looked at Shen Nian's surprised face and smiled in his heart, it was so cute. "Drink it. Nian'er. ”

"Hmm."

Shen Nian drank tea and rested.

The palace maids showed the achievements of Shen Nian and Wang Zixin, indeed, Wang Zixin wrote half of Shen Nian, and everyone looked at Shen Nian's words, their eyes were full of amazement. What a word.

Lost, lost, Wang Zixin went backwards, she really wrote it, Wang Zixin shook her head in disbelief.

Xie Daoyou also admired Shen Nian in his heart. Yes, a good opponent indeed. At the same time, Xie Daoyou frowned and looked at Wang Zixin, something is wrong, this Huangshan girl is wrong.

"Heezhao, you slut." I heard a loud curse in the audience.
