Chapter Twenty-Three: Sand Table Battle

The roses in the Dream Garden bloom very well, the red ones win the fire, the pink ones are like the sun, and the slender main stems sway slowly with the spring breeze of March and Xi. Liu Qiluo stood in front of the window, and the delicacies on the dining table behind him remained motionless. The purple gauze skirt seemed to be a little thin, her red lips sighed, and the maid Qing'er behind her held a cloak with her.

"General, are you really discussing the matter of men and women with that Wang girl?"

"Yes." This news came from the maids of Zhengyangju, and it should be true.

After Liu Qiluo said this, he stopped talking. The general has always been very strict, and this time almost everyone in the palace knows about it, I'm afraid he deliberately didn't stop it. Did he really like that girl? Liu Qiluo gathered the cloak, and the figure of Na Na and the dim candlelight added a touch of loneliness and melancholy.

Yu Tianqing walked all the way back to Xiaozhuxuan, some of the people passing by looked at her with smiles, some handed her the orange in their hands, and some said hello when they saw her from afar...... The enthusiasm was like fire, and her scalp was numb. What happened?

"Girl, you and the general are really discussing the matter of men and women this afternoon?" In one afternoon, the General's Mansion was almost all over the place - the unsmiling general and the ink girl chatted about the "Jade Girl Technique"! Ayili's round eyes had a look of "tell me quickly". It turns out that talking about gossip is common in ancient and modern times! As long as the sun shines, there must be gossip.

"What a man and a woman! It's just a book! Yu Tianqing grabbed Ayili's hand, and saw that her chubby little hand had recovered very well, glowing with a natural and transparent luster, and her heart was relieved. Yu Tianqing picked up the exquisite embroidery on the table again and looked at it. In fact, Ayili's fingers are a little short, perhaps because of her young age, there are a few lovely whirlpools on her chubby palms, but she is not clumsy at all when she does the work, such as embroidery, she embroiders it very well, and the colorful silk threads seem to have life in her hands, flying out of a pair of lifelike mandarin ducks, and clusters of rich peonies......

There is only one day left before the Shangsi Festival, and Yu Tianqing's book is also silently finished. As soon as she entered the study today, she saw a large sand table. In this sand table, the mountains and stones are all present, and the city tower is realistic; Soldiers carved out of wood, some dressed in red, others in black, confront each other vividly. What's even better is that there is a pool of clear water in the mountain stream, looking at it quietly, I was in a trance in the shadow of the sword light and fire! This sand table is different from the usual sand table, and it should be the result of improvement after several actual battles in Beizhiyao.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw an ink-colored figure coming leisurely. He sat in front of the door and window, the scarlet openwork window letting in the sparkling sunlight, and his delicate skin seemed to be as light as a glow.

"I've read so many books, so I'm going to do it today."

The two figures, one black and one white, sat opposite each other, and Beizhiyao carefully explained the rules and listened to her. She led the black soldiers to attack the city, and he led the red soldiers to defend the city.

Yu Tianqing raised her head, her eyes were bright, her slightly white lips were gently raised, revealing a sense of agility and aura, and her soft voice was as beautiful as a musical note: "General, I will definitely win." ”

Bei Zhiyao smiled faintly, acquiescing to her statement.

At the beginning, Yu Tianqing's black soldiers were rampaging in the sand table, and the layout was disorderly. Beizhiyao was not in a hurry to guard the entire city tower airtightly. The two troops handed over, and Beizhiyao's formation was exquisite, and Yu Tianqing was defeated and retreated. After a few rounds, the sound of dripping water attracted Bei Zhiyao's attention, and it turned out that Yu Tianqing actually let go of the river on the mountain, and instantly flooded the open space outside the city. Bei Zhiyao retreated to the city tower in a hurry, but saw that Yu Tianqing didn't know when to plant the black flag on his city tower!

Who is Beizhiyao, watching the string song to know the elegant meaning, watching the falling leaves and knowing the autumn. His meticulousness is integrated into the soul, like a cold gray, although not as enthusiastic as red, not as flamboyant as yellow, but with an incomparable determination. He put down the red soldier in his hand, his blue eyes narrowed, his curvy chin was gently raised, and he said, "Stretch out your hand." ”

Yu Tianqing stretched out his left hand obediently, and sure enough, there were a few black soldiers hidden in his sleeve.

"Clever." Beizhiyao snorted coldly. Before the start of the game, she deliberately spoke to attract his attention, secretly hid a few black soldiers in her hands, and planted the flag on his castle tower while he was dealing with the flood!

"Soldiers don't get tired of cheating, general, you lost!" Yu Tianqing smiled, and the pure black pupils in her eyes revealed countless cunning lights.

"If you lose, you lose, it's not that you can't afford to lose." Beizhiyao smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Come with me to the Shangsi Festival tomorrow." ”

Yu Tianqing watched the ink-colored figure leave, in fact, she knew very well that she was really cheating to win this time. She glanced at the sand table again, and suddenly there was a little complexity in her eyes! Behind the small hill on the left side of the mountain stream, a section of red clothes is exposed. In other words, when she was leading the water, these ambushed red soldiers would be able to kill her black soldiers in an instant! If Bei Zhiyao hadn't let her go, she would never have been able to lead the water to the city, let alone take advantage of the chaos to plant the black flag on his tower. He had already seen through her, and for a moment, he didn't know what it was like in his heart.

The pale pink begonia flowers in Xiaozhuxuan bloom very well, like patches of pink smoke, with a girlish liveliness and pretty. Through the window, Ayili was busy inside, and "Azu" had already heard her footsteps and ran towards her happily. For a moment, there was a hint of sourness in her nose. A spring-like yard, a sister who thinks about herself everywhere, and a clingy pet, isn't this the life she always wanted before? Now, she has to do everything she can to leave.

Yu Tianqing took a piece of paper from the table and vigorously printed the red in his hand onto the paper. Three three three three, four three words. On the way back to Xiaozhuxuan just now, she ran into the woman in gray last time. The same palms are holding each other, the same red letters, but this time Yu Tianqing is a little unable to guess. Ayili finished the embroidery in her hand, and saw Yu Tianqing looking thoughtful. She leaned over and said, "Huh? Why are there so many three words? ”

Seeing that Yu Tianqing didn't answer, she said again: "Girl, tomorrow is the third day of March, what clothes are you wearing?" She took the clothes to Yu Tianqing, spread them on the bed and said, "Girl, the third day of March in the capital is very lively, and all the noble ladies and ladies will go to the moat to pray for blessings!" And every day the women go to drink a wine called Twelve Jiao! This wine is made from twelve different kinds of flowers! ”

Yu Tianqing's eyes lit up: "Can that kind of wine be bought everywhere?" ”

"Of course not, the Sanshengke Tavern in the third alley by the moat is the most authentic! However, I heard that this year's twelve Jiao has already been booked! It's a pity that you can't drink even if you have money! ”

Yu Tianqing excitedly kept Ayili and kissed her round face and said, "Ayili, you are really my little lucky star!" Ayili was extremely unaccustomed to Yu Tianqing's sudden enthusiasm, her cheeks were flushed, as if two pomegranate flowers were flying: "The girl is used to making trouble with me!" ”
