Xiao Yulin said: "Put on the cloak, it's still snowing outside!" ”

Zhong Yuqi saw that there was a reason, so he said: "Since it's snowing, then don't go!" ”

Xiao Yulin said: "It doesn't matter, the snow is not very heavy, and there are many people playing outside!" The lanterns outside are beautiful, and there are lantern riddles to guess! You've been in the house for so long, it's time to go out for a walk! ”

Qiu Shi only likes to go out to play, so he happily said to Zhong Yuqi: "Miss! Miss! There are a lot of people outside, let's go and join in the fun! ”

Zhong Yuqi looked at Qiushi and then at Chunhua. Although Chunhua didn't say anything, Zhong Yuqi could see that Chunhua's face was looking forward to it.

Zhong Yuqi relented and said, "Okay! You all wear thicker clothes, it's a big night, it's snowing again, it's cold outside! ”

Chunhua said happily: "Miss, the slave maid will prepare a hand warmer for Miss!" ”

Zhong Yuqi said: "No need! Walking around outside, I'm afraid it's going to get hot. ”

Xiao Yulin said to Chunhua: "Go and bring your young lady's cloak!" ”

"Yes!"

Chunhua happily responded, and hurriedly went to the inner room to get a cloak and tie it to Zhong Yuqi.

"Let's go!"

As he spoke, Xiao Yulin grabbed one of Zhong Yuqi's hands and pulled her out of the house.

Zhong Yuqi was a little unaccustomed to Xiao Yulin's actions, and wanted to withdraw his hand a few times. However, Xiao Yulin grabbed it tightly, and she didn't want to push too hard, so she had to let Xiao Yulin hold it.

Ma Liu had long known that Xiao Yulin was planning to leave the mansion, no matter whether he would go out in the end or not, he had called someone to pass the word to Zhao Ze'an in advance.

Today is different from usual, there are a lot of people on the street, so it is better to be careful. Therefore, Zhao Ze'an had already brought a few people to wait at the gate of King Rui's Mansion.

Seeing Xiao Yulin and Zhong Yuqi coming, Zhao Zean and others scattered around Xiao Yulin and Zhong Yuqi.

Out of the Ruiwang Mansion, it is rare to see pedestrians passing by on the road.

Fireworks appear in the sky from time to time, lighting up the sky. The main street in front is also brightly lit and full of people.

The main street was crowded with men, women and children. On both sides of the road, there are many people selling lanterns, charades, and other things for food, and I also saw young couples talking and laughing in the corners.

Xiao Yulin held Zhong Yuqi's hand and walked in the crowd.

Chunhua and Qiushi held each other's hands and walked beside Zhong Yuqi.

Ma Liu and the others followed closely behind Xiao Yulin, and they didn't dare to be distracted to feel the atmosphere of the festival, so they had to be careful. There are many people, lest Xiao Yulin and Zhong Yuqi have any mistakes.

Xiao Yulin and Zhong Yuqi took a look and asked Zhong Yuqi if she wanted this and that, Zhong Yuqi shook her head and said that she didn't need it.

Seeing that Chunhua and Qiushi were happy, Xiao Yulin bought a lot of things for Chunhua and Qiushi, and Zhong Yuqi was naturally happy with Chunhua and Qiushi.

Xiao Yulin didn't seem to be interested in the lanterns on the side of the road, and he didn't guess the word puzzles, so he only led Zhong Yuqi to the south.

"At the entrance of Yiyun Restaurant in the south, a lantern riddle will be held every year, which is the largest lantern riddle in the capital, and the prizes are also very rich. In a moment, we'll go there and have a look. Xiao Yulin said.

Without waiting for Zhong Yuqi to speak, Qiu Shi said happily: "Okay! All right! Our young lady reads a lot, and the slave maid also wants to see how many riddles our young lady can guess! ”

Zhong Yuqi said: "I have only read a few books, and I can't guess a few riddles." The prince has been taught by a famous teacher since he was a child, and presumably the prince's literary style is better, so it is better to see the prince's demeanor. ”

Xiao Yulin said with a smile: "If you want to say anything else, this king may not be able to." This guess the lantern riddle, after watching it for so many years, how many kings will be a little bit. Today I travel with Pepper to relive the beauty of my childhood, and this king should win the first prize and give the best prize to Pepper. ”

Chunhua said expectantly: "The slave maid has long heard that the Lantern Festival lantern riddle will be the largest in Yiyun Restaurant, and the things are the best. I wonder what the top prize will be today? ”

Qiu Shi said: "The slave maid also heard that the prizes of Yiyun Restaurant are different every year, and they are also something that others rarely see. The slave maid also wants to know what good things Yiyun Restaurant has prepared this year. ”

Xiao Yulin said: "The front is Yiyun Restaurant, let's go over and take a look, don't we know?" ”

"Good! All right! ”

Qiu Shi pulled Chunhua and ran to the front first.

In front of it is Yiyun Restaurant, where a large group of people have already gathered. I don't know what it was like inside, but I just saw a high platform with a lot of lanterns hanging on it.

The high platform was temporarily erected to hang lanterns, and the lanterns were pasted with anagrams. There are a total of five layers of lanterns on the high platform, plus a large lantern at the top.

From the bottom to the top, the lanterns changed from small to large, sixty-four, thirty-two, sixteen, eight, four, and the top lanterns, a total of 125 lanterns, and the anagram slowly turned from simple to difficult.

The rules of the game are that each layer of lanterns has to answer a certain number of riddles before they can move up to the next level.

The first layer should answer forty-eight correctly, the second layer should answer twenty-four, the third layer should answer twelve correctly, the fourth layer should answer six correctly, and the fifth layer should answer three correctly.

Next to the high platform is a pillar with five nodes, each section representing one layer. If someone passes, a red rope will be tied to the node.

It's still early, only the bottom three nodes are tied with red ropes, and the third node is only tied with a few red ropes.

The first prize lantern is the first place, the fifth floor is the second place, and the fourth floor is the third place. The prize was placed at the entrance of Yiyun Restaurant, covered with a red cloth, and I don't know what was inside.

In front of the high platform, there is a table with pen, ink, paper and inkstone. The person who guesses the riddle writes the riddle and the serial number on the paper, and then goes to the gentleman sitting behind the high platform to check the answer, and the paper on which the answer is written is also to be taken back.

Chunhua and Qiushi couldn't squeeze in, so they just stood outside anxiously, stretching their necks on tiptoe to look inside. Still, their diminutive bodies could not see what was going on inside.

Zhong Yuqi also saw this situation, so she said to Xiao Yulin: "Lord Wang, it seems that we can't get in." ”

Xiao Yulin smiled and said, "What's so difficult about this? ”

Before the words fell, Xiao Yulin grabbed Zhong Yuqi's waist with one hand, and jumped over the top of the crowd with Zhong Yuqi on his toes, and landed at the gate of Yiyun Restaurant.

Rao is Zhong Yuqi has practiced, but he was still startled by this sudden action, and let out a low sigh, and even his back was cold.

Zhong Yuqi stood still, raised her hand to cover her heart, and her little heart was still beating non-stop.
