Chapter 224 [Downcast Street] (II)

After Hu Xiaotian and Yang Lingqi broke up, they returned to Long Xiyue's side.

Wen Boyuan snorted coldly and said, "Why has Gonggong Hu been gone for so long?" It's so bad that everyone is waiting for you here. ”

Long Xiyue glared at Wen Boyuan with some dissatisfaction, and said softly: "Wen Gongzi should be careful when he speaks, after all, he is outside." ”

Wen Boyuan became more and more angry in his heart, I really don't know what method this Hu Xiaotian used to bewitch the princess, and he defended him everywhere, and he couldn't even say a word to me.

Hu Xiaotian smiled at Long Xiyue and said, "I'm sorry, I just feel that the scholar is pitiful, so I chatted a little more and made you wait for a long time." ”

Long Xiyue smiled and said, "I see you bought two paintings, show them to me." ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "I'll give it to you to appreciate it carefully when I go back." ”

Long Xiyue nodded, but Wen Boyuan on the side said with extreme disdain: "Crude and clumsy, it is difficult to get into the hall of elegance." ”

Hu Xiaotian almost couldn't help but show the painting that represented Yang Lingqi's true level, but after thinking about it, it was better not to cause trouble for him, and sneered: "Your so-called crude and clumsy is clumsy in my opinion, which is much better than some people's pretentious and grandiose paintings." ”

Wen Boyuan was directly said to his face, which was unbearable, and he said angrily: "Do you know how to draw? ”

Hu Xiaotian smiled: "I don't know much about it, and I don't know much about drawing, but I still feel a little stronger than you." ”

Wen Boyuan thought that this guy was deliberately provoking himself, so he didn't get angry but laughed: "Anyone will say it, I want to appreciate Gonggong Hu's paintings another day." ”

Long Xiyue has never seen Hu Xiaotian paint, Wen Boyuan's flower and bird paintings have become quite famous, I don't think Hu Xiaotian may be able to beat him, and said softly: "I came out tonight to enjoy the Lantern Festival, what are you fighting for?" You've ruined your good mood. ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "It's not vindictive. But to tell the truth, I just can't see others being self-righteous, complacent, and unable to see Mount Tai. ”

"You ......"

Hu Xiaotian said: "Ming'er won't leave anyway, I said Gongzi Wen, we might as well make a bet." How about each person draw a picture and take it out tomorrow? ”

Wen Boyuan has a lonely and arrogant temperament, and he has always been empty-eyed, not to mention that in front of Princess Long Xiyue, he said loudly: "Okay! Compare to compare! ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "Then let Miss Long come up with a topic." ”

Long Xiyue glanced at him with disgust, obviously thinking that his challenge to Wen Boyuan was meaningless, and she said softly: "You two are really a little boring, Zijuan, you can help me think of a topic." ”

Zijuan said: "Then draw my father-in-law...... My young lady. Whoever draws more like it wins. ”

Long Xiyue's face flushed: "Nonsense! ”

Hu Xiaotian laughed and said, "I think this topic is good. To be honest, he was really a little afraid that Zijuan would propose to paint flowers, birds, fish and insects, after all, he was not good at it, and he couldn't do it in landscapes, but when it came to portrait painting, Hu Xiaotian asked himself if he took out his sketch skills to show off, and he would definitely kill a large piece in seconds, and he would definitely win against Wen Boyuan's weaknesses with his own strengths.

Wen Boyuan said: "Okay." That's it, let's take out our paintings tomorrow at noon. ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "That's not good. ”

"No way?" Wen Boyuan was surprised. Immediately, a trace of contempt appeared on his face, obviously Hu Xiaotian was still a little self-aware, knowing that painting could not compare to himself, so he retreated in the face of difficulties, which was really a villain's behavior.

Hu Xiaotian said: "Since it is a competition, there will always be winners and losers, and since there are winners and losers, there will be rewards and punishments." We'll have to gamble something. ”

Wen Boyuan knew what he meant, nodded and said, "You decide what to bet on." ”

Hu Xiaotian glanced at the snowball in Zijuan's arms and said, "It's all your own people, don't hurt the harmony, whoever loses will learn to bark twice?" ”

Wen Boyuan was slightly stunned, and said in his heart that this kind of yin damage idea can only be come up with by this eunuch. Think I'm afraid of you? On painting papers, on martial arts and on character, what will I lose to you, tomorrow you will learn to bark a dog is certain, so he nodded and said: "Okay!" ”

"It's a deal!" The two high-fived each other, which was a complete finalization of the matter.

At this time, the gongs and drums in front of the sky were noisy, but I saw a golden dragon churning and dancing in the crowd, and the onlookers were also excited because of the arrival of the dragon lantern and let out bursts of cheers.

The dragon lanterns were all young men with quick eyes, strong bodies, and strong dancing skills, and despite the cold weather, they still banded their shirtless leggings and blended in with the dragon's tumbling. The lights are not extinguished, the dragon does not stop, the firecrackers are constant, the firecrackers are constantly everywhere the dragon lantern goes, the fireworks are pervasive, and the onlookers are unable to get through.

In order to welcome the dragon lantern into the house, some people arrange 36 pairs of large flower cannons in front of the door, and tens of thousands of firecrackers are heard. When the dragon lantern entered the courtyard, the flower cannons and firecrackers outside the gate exploded in the air, and fireworks erupted. At this time, except for the lights in each section of the dragon lantern, all other lights are turned off. The lantern dragon flies in the afterglow of firecrackers and fireworks, which is very spectacular. It is said that the dragon is the mascot of many children and grandchildren, and the "lamp" is from the "fire" from the "ding", and the dragon lantern can be prosperous, and the days are prosperous.

Hu Xiaotian suddenly took Long Xiyue's hand and drilled under the dragon lantern, Long Xiyue let out a coquettish cry, her beautiful eyes burned with happiness and excitement, as soon as they moved, Wen Boyuan and the group of warriors hurriedly followed in, Hu Xiaotian took Long Xiyue to turn around, and the warriors obviously saw that they were in front of them, and they were always a few steps behind to catch up, but they didn't know that Hu Xiaotian used eighteen steps to hide from the dog.

After drilling a few times under the dragon lantern, Hu Xiaotian took Long Xiyue to stop at the tail of the dragon, Long Xiyue's pretty face turned crimson, panting, and her face was rippling with a smile like spring.

Wen Boyuan's group of people rushed over at this time, and Wen Boyuan naturally still looked angry, but he didn't dare to attack in front of Long Xiyue.

Long Xiyue was afraid that Wen Boyuan would trouble Hu Xiaotian again, so she took the initiative to explain for him: "I took him to drill the dragon lantern." ”

Wen Boyuan sighed secretly in his heart, did Princess Anping really think she was blind? I don't know what kind of magic this eunuch has, and he will let the princess of the dynasty protect him like this.

Hu Xiaotian said with a smile: "The key to making lanterns is a nonsense, I said Wen Gongzi, does anyone owe you money?" With a straight face all day long, life is a grass and autumn, why don't you live a little happier in your short youth? ”

Wen Boyuan said coldly: "Wen has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and he doesn't dare to be sloppy in the slightest." He took a step towards Long Xiyue's side and said in a low voice, "Miss, it's not too early, we should almost go back." ”

Long Xiyue looked at the fire tree and silver flowers in front of her, singing and laughing, and there was infinite affection in Fang's heart, but she understood that no matter how happy things were, there was an end, and she was about to nod her head in agreement, but she saw the surrounding crowd surging towards this side, and it turned out that the big stage in front of her was preparing to throw hydrangeas, so the people rushed over to see the excitement.

Hu Xiaotian saw that Long Xiyue was still reluctant, and he smiled: "It's better to go over there and watch the excitement." ”

Long Xiyue had a tacit understanding with him, and said softly: "It's okay!" Let's go back. ”

Wen Boyuan heard Long Xiyue say this, and it was not good for him to speak out again. A group of people escorted Long Xiyue to bring the big stage of Guanlan Street, the big stage has been decorated with bright lights, colorful, many places have the custom of throwing hydrangeas, and when the girl reaches the age of marriage, it is scheduled for a certain day, generally speaking, it is the fifteenth day of the first month or the fifteenth day of August. Let the suitors concentrate under the embroidery building, the girl holds the hydrangea in her hand, and when she sees Ruyi Langjun, she throws the hydrangea on his body so that her sweetheart can pick it up. However, the hydrangea is generally chosen during the day, and the lifelong events have to be seen clearly before throwing, and the place where the hydrangea is thrown is often the lady's embroidery building.

It is also the first time that the venue was chosen at night and the venue was chosen on the Grand Theatre on Mission Hills Street, which should be just a performance to liven up the atmosphere.

When they arrived at the place, they found that sure enough, there was a group of martial artists on the stage who were turning their heads, and their heads were turning high and floating, attracting bursts of applause from the crowd, and after they went down, four shirtless and strong men came to the stage, waving the fire sticks in their hands, and the burning fire sticks at both ends were like meteors under their dance, changing different trajectories, and the audience naturally cheered and thundered.

Long Xiyue slapped her palms red in the audience, Hu Xiaotian looked at her, and felt pity in her heart, this pampered princess was afraid that she had never felt such freedom now.

Wen Boyuan looked at Long Xiyue's beautiful face, but his heart became more and more entangled, before this departure, his father told him a thousand times that he must stop this marriage, and never let Long Xiyue marry Xue Daoming, the most direct way to stop this marriage is to get rid of Long Xiyue, but ...... In the depths of his heart, he has always admired this beautiful and simple princess, and for her, he even did not hesitate to ask Wen Ya to help send paintings, but it is a pity that Luohua is ruthless, Long Xiyue has always been unmoved, last time for Hu Xiaotian, the little eunuch actually threatened his father with a fake painting, thinking of this, Wenbo Yuan's heart was like a knife.

At this time, the crowd of onlookers erupted in cheers, but they saw that on the big stage, a charming girl walked out slowly, she was wearing a red long dress, and the silk skirt seemed to be not afraid of the cold in such a cold night. She spun around the stage, her style was infinite, and bursts of dark incense hit her surroundings. A pair of eyes as clear as water glanced at the crowd, almost everyone thought she was looking at herself, such a beautiful woman couldn't help but be confused, could it be that the fairy in the sky fell into the world by mistake?

Hu Xiaotian saw the girl's appearance clearly, but he was taken aback in his heart, the fairy-like character on the big stage was Xiyan at all. Thinking of the previous experience of fighting with Xiyan, Hu Xiaotian suddenly became nervous, this demon girl is scheming, no matter the martial arts scheming is not under him, it is no accident that she appeared in Tianbo City. An urgent sense of crisis came to his heart, and Hu Xiaotian said to Long Xiyue: "Miss, we should go back." (To be continued......)
