The building is far away, and the spring is lonely.

Shen Qiutan originally thought that the Spring Appreciation Platform was an extremely open and beautiful place, but he didn't expect to follow the steps of the eldest princess of Longqing, only to realize that what he had seen before was just a drop in the bucket of Ai Yuan.

The embroidered shoes decorated with pearls stopped, and the eldest princess of Longqing turned around and smiled proudly at the nobles: "Here, this is Lan Fanganting." ”

Lan Fang Anting? Shen Qiutan didn't understand it very well, but the nobles on the left and right had already understood it, and their faces were pale.

Shen Qiutong pressed her ear: "Look at the other side." ”

Shen Qiutan raised his eyes, and saw that on the other side of the clear water in front of him, many young people had gathered.

Between this shore and the other shore, there is a small lake water, there is only a stone bridge above the lake, the stone bridge is half bent, the people on both sides of the bank can hear the sound of the opposite bank clearly, and can also see the faces of each other, but no one can cross the bridge, except for the king of Lu who is lost.

He had already crossed the bridge, and the little eunuch behind him was chasing after him very quickly, but he could imagine how quickly King Lu crossed the bridge.

It's really a little wonderful, it turns out that Daning's high-end blind date conference is like this.

It's really an eye-opener.

The eldest princess of Longqing has changed her clothes and makeup, and she no longer wears hairpins, she slowly walked onto the bridge, and said to the men and women on both sides of the strait: "You are all young talents and famous women in the imperial capital, and many of them are not the first time to come here to enjoy the Spring Banquet, not much to say, next, I hope you will show your real skills, and those who have achieved rankings will be rewarded!" ”

The other side of the bank was clamoring, it was a young man with strong blood, and the nobles on this shore were all blushing when they heard this.

Men and women are different after all.

The palace maids and eunuchs rushed in, and several competition platforms were finally exposed in front of people.

Shen Qiutan took a closer look and found that the nobles were really good at playing.

In addition to the regular items such as piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting, there are also embroidery, pot throwing, pounding pills, cooking tea, flavoring, guessing riddles, couplets, poems, arithmetic, cooking, and so on.

On the other side, there are less women's events such as embroidery, hammering, and cooking, and more violent content such as archery, polo, and keju.

It is conceivable how much space these projects need, Xiao Zhao really only came for provocation before, such a big place, horse racing is enough.

Because of the time relationship, each person can only participate in a maximum of five events, each project has a competition platform, in front of the stage there are two literate eunuchs and two palace maids responsible for order and records, each project only takes the top three. After the completion of all the projects, a leader from each side of the strait will be selected as the representative of this year's spring festival to thank God for the power of spring.

This is the process of the spring banquet and the reason for the grandeur.

"Sister, which one do you want to participate in?"

"I ...... Do you want to throw a pot? ”

"Then I'll go too!"

The twins discussed the result, and then went to the goal, the timid Shen Qiumei pursed her lips, looked at the table for the painting competition, and finally mustered up the courage to take two steps, but saw that the third girl of the Gao family also walked to the painting platform, and suddenly took another step.

Shen Qiutan smiled: "It's all a joke, since the fifth sister is here, just go." We don't have much talent left and right, and even if we don't get the ranking, we don't have much to lose. ”

"Hmm." Shen Qiumei thought about it, and went to the little eunuch with a red face to sign up.

And Shen Qiutong didn't need to be said, he had already gone to the platform of "books", and he seemed to be very confident.

Well, it's a pity that there is only a cooking competition, not a eating competition, Shen Qiutan secretly gave a bad review, and also arrived in front of the pot throwing table.

The little eunuch registered his name, and Shen Qiutan obediently lined up, not to mention, there are quite a few of them.

Shen Qiuqi saw that Shen Qiutan was also here, and pursed his lips disdainfully: "Sure enough, it's a straw bale, and it can only throw pots." ”

Shen Qiujin slapped her sister with a snap: "She is a straw bag, what are we?" ”

The two sisters are still good at their appearance alone, even among these noble girls, they can be regarded as upper-middle, but are they talented? But it's stretched.

Shen Qiuqi grimaced at his sister, turned his head, and no longer looked at Shen Qiutan, and then, it was soon the turn of the two of them, but unfortunately the final results of both of them were not good, but they were only one or two out of ten.

In order to improve efficiency, in addition to the eunuchs and palace maids, this pot throwing competition is no longer divided into hosts, guests, and shooters, and it is more rude, but directly throws the arrow into the pot.

The belly of the pot is round and thin, the neck is repaired seven inches, the abdomen is repaired five inches, the caliber is more than two inches, the capacity is five liters, there are two ears hanging on both sides of the upper mouth, which are connected with the upper mouth in the same diameter, and the lower chassis is stable and gorgeous; Look at the arrows used by each person, they are all made of wood, and they are also carved with rich ornaments.

The twins felt that they couldn't get into the top three, and they couldn't find what they were good at in other projects, so they wanted to wait here to watch Shen Qiutan throw pots, or make a fool of themselves. This big fool, do you know what a pitcher is? Don't bother their sisters when the time comes.

Shen Qiutan is neither early nor late in line, nor is it early or late when it is her turn.

The eunuch sang her name, and she went on stage with four other maidens, on the far left in front of the stage.

The eunuch gave an order, and Shen Qiutan aimed his arrow at the mouth of the tea and threw it hard.

Shen Qiuqi stretched his neck.

There was a burst of cheers around, although I didn't see Shen Qiutan have wonderful skills such as leaning on the rod, dragon head, and leopard tail, but I saw her throwing arrows and throwing steadily, and she actually hit ten shots. The eunuch wrote down Shen Qiutan's name, and according to the current result, she is very likely to achieve the ranking, so she has to stay in front of the stage, wait for the other nobles to finish voting, and then compete.

In a short time, the competition was all over, in addition to Shen Qiutan, there were three people with ten arrows and ten hits, and two more people participated in this challenge, and it was urgent to compete again.

These six people had to be in groups of three or three to compete, and Shen Qiutan was divided into the second group, and the same group with her was the Jiang girl who made fun of her before.

Waiting for the interval of the game, Jiang Nuoyao pulled Shen Qiutan's sleeve and whispered: "Fang Cai, I was rude, and I ask Miss Shen for forgiveness." ”

Shen Qiutan was a little surprised, but then said aloud: "It's okay, Miss Jiang is actually right, I did eat a little too much." ”

Seeing her generosity, Jiang Nuoyao felt that her family was excessive, and couldn't help but go further: "I'm thirteen years old this year, I see that you are a few years younger than me, why don't we call each other sisters in the future." ”

Seeing that Shen Qiutan was so thin and so able to eat just now, Jiang Nuoyao suddenly remembered all kinds of rumors about the Shen family in the capital, this Shen Jiu girl who had just lost her father and mother would not be unable to eat enough in the Shen family, so when she saw dim sum just now, she was so hungry and did not choose to eat, and she had no manners at all.

It's so pathetic!

Shen Qiutan didn't know that because he had eaten a few more pieces of dim sum, he had been made up so much news by Jiang Nuoyao's brain, but he stretched out his hand not to hit the smiling person, and Shen Qiutan also smiled: "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ”

Jiang Nuoyao and Liu Wanyan are obviously different, and it is not bad to have multiple friends.

Soon, it was their turn.
