The Imperial Palace of the State of Chu.

After finishing the business selection, I still can't be idle on weekends.

"Being a king is like free labor all year round." After finishing his work, he rubbed his eyebrows and complained.

The destruction of the Jin State made him majestic, but his status was high and his responsibilities were heavy, and the huge territory of the Jin State made his workload increase exponentially.

"It's better to take a break from work and rest. Xia Li, Queen, what is she doing now? ”

"The queen and the queen are throwing pots in the royal garden."

Pitching pot is a throwing game made by scholars and doctors during banquets in ancient times, and it is also a kind of etiquette. It was more popular during the Warring States period, especially in the Tang Dynasty, and was carried forward.

Throwing the pot is to throw arrows into the pot, and the one who hits the most is the winner, and the loser drinks according to the prescribed number of cups.

During the Warring States Period, there was a lack of entertainment projects, and there were very few entertainment projects for aristocratic women.

"I can rest for an hour, and I'll play with them for a while." The Zhou royal family has declared that he is the orthodox of the world.

In order to be able to appear more orthodox. He declared that no one but himself could call himself I. Take the meaning of "the world is all me, and the imperial power is the only one".

As soon as he got up, the chamberlains and palace maids began to get busy, burning incense and carrying the stove, and gathered around him.

The Imperial Garden is not far from the main hall. Walk through a circuitous corridor and you will arrive.

At this time, it is summer, and the flowers and trees in the imperial garden are full of vitality.

Fan Ji took the four concubines and Lin Fei on the weekend to find a place full of flowers and placed a copper kettle in the open space.

Lin Fei and Li Ji threw pots there with great interest, applauding and cheering whenever they hit it. Fan Ji and the others were not interested, and occasionally smiled a little when they looked at Lin Fei and the others' happy appearance.

Fan Ji's personal palace maid was on the side. She peeled the melon seeds one by one and put them in a flat bottle. Fan Ji took one or two grains at a time and put them in her mouth.

From the look in her eyes, you can see that she is not interested in pitching pots at all.

As queen, she had to be polite at all times. Even if you feel bored and bored, you have to sit there dignified and graceful.

Fan Ji was born in a noble family, and the entertainment of pitching pots has been played since childhood, and she can throw arrows into it with her eyes closed.

"So you're all here, so I'll find it." It was Lin Fei's turn to throw an arrow, he suddenly made a sound, Lin Fei lost his mind for a while, and the arrow fell down against the edge of the copper kettle.

Li Ji saluted and applauded happily. "Haha, you lost."

"It's all because the king suddenly spoke, and it can't be counted."

"Do you still want to cheat?" Li Ji crossed her waist with her hands and said angrily.

"If it weren't for the sudden appearance of the king, I would have been able to vote."

"King, you give us a review." Li Ji shook the weekend's arm and coquettishly.

"The king, if you favor the concubines of Li Ji, you can't follow it."

"Li Ji, the king finally rested for a while, you two don't make trouble." Fan Ji scolded with a smile.

Fan Ji spoke, and Li Ji and Lin Fei immediately let go.

Weekend smiled kindly and patted the hands of the two of them. "Isn't this pot throwing fun?"

"Of course it's interesting." Li Ji said excitedly.

"You guys, I haven't played it more interesting. I recently invented a card game. It's just that this game needs to test your intelligence, I don't know if you dare to play it. ”

"There's nothing a concubine wouldn't dare." Lin Fei is not afraid of the earth, not afraid of the tunnel.

"What about you?" Look at the crowd on the weekend.

"Does the king have time to teach us? Will it delay your rest, the king? Fan Ji was a little worried.

"I deal with government affairs very much every day, and I play card games with you for a good time. Otherwise, my head is only filled with government affairs, and sooner or later I will die of exhaustion. ”

"Then the concubines and sisters will play with King Zhuang."

On weekends, when I was bored in my previous life, I occasionally played games to pass the time. He first taught the concubines of the harem to know the card deck. "This is the King of Spades. This is the K ...... of hearts."

It took half an hour just to teach the concubines to know the cards, and the weekend.

"This game is really profound, you are really smart, King." Lin Fei's eyes were full of stars, and he looked at the weekend with admiration.

Li Ji cut disdainfully. "Lin Fei, of course the king is smart, you still need to say this." Among the concubines, Li Ji and Lin Fei are the most deed, and they have the best relationship, and they often tease each other.

Lin Fei pouted angrily, "I'll make sure you'll have you all over the ground looking for teeth in a while." ”

"Don't lose, just cry your nose."

Lin Fei stomped her feet at Li Ji, walked to Fan Ji's side and said coquettishly: "Queen, look, she bullied me again." ”

Fan Ji scratched her nose affectionately and said with a smile: "I'll help you win it back by playing cards in a while." ”

"Great! It's still the queen's sister, you're the best. Lin Fei clinged to Fan Ji's arm like a puppy.

Three women in one play, but the harem on weekends is harmonious, and it all depends on Queen Fan Ji to mediate.

Weekend laughed and said: "You two haven't started playing yet, just take such a big breath, if you lose to me for a while, then won't you beat yourself up?" ”

"This game was invented by you, the king, you must be better at playing than us, it's normal that we are not the king's opponents." Lin Fei looked innocent.

Weekend delight. "Now you know all the cards, right? You pick four people to play a lap first. The others watched from the sidelines, and after a while, it was time to go. ”

Fan Ji immediately said: "The concubines should watch from the side first, and let the sisters play first." ”

Cai Yunxi also followed: "The concubine hasn't figured out the rules of the game yet, so let's wait and see." ”

As a queen, Fan Ji is not good at competing with the concubines in this trivial matter. Cai Yunxi wanted to wait and see and understand the entire rules of the game before starting. In this way, there are only four people left.

Xi Xuan, Ying Shu, Li Ji, and Lin Fei were seated.

On the weekend, he took the cards from the hand of the waiter. I shuffled it and turned over a card, it was J, and in order Xi Xuan should be the first to start drawing cards. He taught them hand in hand. "You draw cards in order, whoever catches this J has a chance to be the owner, and the other three are responsible for playing her family."

Lin Fei asked while drawing cards: "King, what is the punishment if you lose?" ”

"The loser has to pinch his nose and turn ten times in place." The weekend smiled evilly, this little girl is not afraid to lift a stone and shoot herself in the foot.

Xi Fei thought for a moment and asked, "What if she wins?" ”

Gold, silver, jewelry, etc., are usually rewarded on weekends, and they have to give something different from usual. He thought for a moment and said, "If anyone wins, I'll carry her around the imperial garden on my back." "He is usually high, how can he condescend to carry them personally.

I didn't notice it over the weekend, but Fan Ji's eyes lit up.

"What does the king mean when he speaks?" Lin Fei's eyes flashed brightly.

"Of course!" The eldest husband has a word, and it is difficult to chase after the four horses.
