"Okay."

Zhang Meng sighed.

The three of them walked out of the inn and into the crowd of people on the street.

"Ninth Master, there are lantern riddles there, don't you want to take a look?"

Ye Minyan said abruptly in the back.

"Where?"

Looking in the direction pointed by Ye Minyan, sure enough, there were people guessing lantern riddles on the street, and there were many people gathered there.

"Let's take a look."

.......

Parting the crowd, the three of them squeezed in; At this moment, there is a difficult problem that stops everyone, and it is a young man who guesses the riddle, he racks his brains to think, but he can't think of it.

It's not just him, but again more than a dozen people can't think of it.

Wang Xu looked at it, and he was also in trouble for a while.

The riddle is: at the end of the year, there is no shortage of fish and rice.

There is no hint, there is only one riddle, this is indeed a little difficult, but it is a pity that Han Shushu did not come, otherwise it will definitely be difficult for him, Wenyuan Pavilion University Scholar is not in vain.

"This gentleman, do you still have a guess, if you can't guess, just stand aside and let someone else come."

The owner of the stall was a little anxious and said.

Like this lantern riddle game, it is very common on the street, guests only need to pay ten coins of silver can be finished, if you can't guess, then the ten coins of silver is the boss's, otherwise, you can get a copy of the reward.

After a cursory look, there are really a lot of generals, there are high-end clothes, necklaces, etc., and there are also low-grade ones, such as barrels, grates, household goods, etc., as long as you guess right, then it is possible to get these.

The young man thought about it, and finally gave up, because he really couldn't think of it.

In fact, Wang Xu had already figured it out at this time, but this was translated by others, and even if he said it, there was no reward, so Wang Xu didn't say it.

"Ninth Master. You guessed it? Suddenly, Ye Minyan said that he was very good at observing words and feelings, but he didn't expect to see the clue in Wang Xu's eyes.

"Tell me about it. What is it? ”

Wang Xu smiled: "If I didn't guess it, it should be a 'scale' word." ”

"Scales? How? ”

"You think for yourself." Wang Xu said.

It is indeed a scale word! At the end of the year, it is the last few strokes, and the fish and rice that are not short are fish and rice; In fact, it's very simple to figure it out. That's it.

Although Wang Xu didn't say it loudly, there were still many people around who heard it, and even two students nodded: "What Childe said is good, admire, admire." ”

After the young man stepped back, a team of brothers and sisters stepped forward, and after paying ten dollars, the boss opened a lantern riddle.

Enigma: The most inhospitable place.

The most inhospitable place? Wang Xu began to think about it.

There is also no hint, the riddle is just these six words, and this one is even more difficult. Judging from the riddle, it's definitely not a word guess, and it's not like hitting an object, is it a place to say?

Suddenly, the team of brothers and sisters said: "The mystery should be 'Nanjun', I heard that the mountains there are high and absurd..." ”

Before the two siblings finished speaking, the boss shook his head: "I'm sorry, you guessed wrong." ”

"Can you guess it? Whoever guesses it will be rewarded the same. The boss said with a smile; He is full of confidence, and he is not afraid of someone coming out right.

There were more than a dozen people present. But no one could pick up the stubble, and they all shook their heads and thought hard.

"It's too hard, and there's no hint, who knows what to do."

"The mystery should be the name of the place."

........

Many people present discussed it. But no one can do it.

Ye Minyan still looked at Wang Xu: "Ninth Master, it's time for you to show your skills, I want that dress." ”

That's right, the prize is a dress!

Wang Xu rolled his eyes: "You think about it yourself, why do you always ask me." ”

"Because we're the only one here who is the smartest."

"Well, this horse is very comfortable."

Wang Xu thought for a moment. I already had a plan in my heart, and told Ye Minyan the mystery I thought, and suddenly, Ye Minyan's eyes lit up.

Ye Minyan grinned and looked at the boss: "I know, the mystery is 'not an inch of grass'." ”

Belch...

The boss was dumbfounded for a moment, he didn't expect to be guessed, it's over, it's a big loss.

As soon as Ye Minyan finished speaking, the people around him reacted, and when it comes to the most desolate place, isn't it just that there is no grass, this is an idiom.

"Admire, girl, this yew suit is for you."

Ye Minyan happily took it, with a smug look on his clothes, but he seemed to have forgotten that this was what Wang Xu came up with.

......

The lantern riddle game was played until midnight, Wang Xu took action in person, and won the boss directly and cried, almost all the good things were won, Zhang Meng was almost unable to wrap it, and in the end, the boss took out a tael of silver and stuffed it to Wang Xu, so that he could leave quickly. Wang Xu was not greedy, he smiled and took the two taels of silver, and then swaggered away.

The boss sighed secretly that he was unlucky, but at the same time he admired Wang Xu, he didn't expect that none of them could be hard to live in, these are all lantern riddles made by a famous teacher in the city.

Unexpectedly, it was really unexpected.

After the lantern riddle was over, it was already midnight, and the three of them returned to the inn.

I gained a lot tonight, but none of them were what Wang Xu liked, and the results were all cheaper.

...........

The Imperial City of the Northern Capital.

Cai Wenzhuo's house.

After getting accurate information, the Emperor of the Holy Dynasty has not been to the court for several days, and it is very likely that he has left the imperial capital, and everyone knows that Wang Xu is a person who loves private visits in microservices.

So where will Wang Xu go?

Cai Wenzhuo pondered and meditated: "He shouldn't dare to come to our realm, right?" ”

"I can't say for sure." Zhu Aoqing said with a smile: "I remember that six years ago, he also went to Nanjun, and what happened when he came to our Beijun." ”

Cai Wenzhuo shook his head: "Now it's not what it used to be, at that time, everyone was an alliance, and the court was also very powerful, how could it be possible to fight in the nest, but now, the court lives in the eastern capital, and most of the world is in the hands of the anti-king, in this case, who is afraid of whom?" Even if we don't have the courage to make a move, then other forces will take action, especially the Eastern Capital, what he wants to see most is for our Three Kingdoms to fight, so as to reap the benefits of the fisherman. ”

Cai Wenzhuo's analysis is very thorough, and I have to admit that this is indeed the case.

Zhu Aoqing said: "Why don't you send someone to inquire about Wang Xu's whereabouts?" ”

"It's a must, I'll leave it to you."

Cai Wenzhuo said: "Remember, Wang Xu can die, but he must not die on our territory, otherwise we will face the never-ending crusade of the Holy Dynasty, and it will be dangerous at that time." ”

"The last will wake up, the last will do it."

Zhu Aoqing left Cai's mansion.

Cai Wenzhuo looked at the map in front of him and fell into deep thought.

"Where are you going?" (To be continued.) )
