Chapter 107: Peacock Opens the Screen (Three Watches)
The banks of the Weishui River, where the Dragon Boat Race is held, are the widest waters in the capital.
At this time, it is most appropriate to describe the blue waves of the pond during the rain break, and the sky is white and jade.
Li Qia squinted at the clear white water of the river and the rows of red dragon boats moored on the bank.
The magnificent scenery suddenly made her feel a lot more comfortable, and she unconsciously stretched her waist and moved her muscles.
In her previous life and this life, it was the first time she participated in the dragon boat race, and it was not an exaggeration to say that she was a little excited at this time.
After that, he took out a small porcelain bottle and sprinkled some medicinal powder into the bag containing melon seeds.
The bag of melon seeds was opened on the honeycomb board, and the ants who had been hungry for many hours climbed in.
The jade pendant beside him looked at all this dumbfounded......
It took a long time to slow down and ask, "Nine, nine girls, what is this?" ”
Do ants also have to watch the dragon boat race while knocking on melon seeds?
Do you know that she doesn't have such treatment?
"Take the ants to the dragon boat race, they will play a big role today."
Li Qia smiled mysteriously at the jade pendant, and then poured out all the medicinal powder in the porcelain bottle and wrapped it in a handkerchief.
When she was ready, she jumped out of the carriage.
"Don't be nervous later, just follow the drum beat I taught you, as long as you don't mess up the rhythm." Wei Yiran approached Li Qia's side and instructed, and took her to the dragon boat that their Li clan had learned.
"Why haven't you seen my cousin come yet?" When Li Qia followed him away, he looked around the riverbank again, and he didn't see Wei Yiyun's figure, so that she looked at another old acquaintance.
"She is the most happy to join in the fun, she will definitely come, presumably because there are many people blocking the road." Wei Yiran walked in front of her, and suddenly turned around and pointed to the riverbank, "Don't you see that is Little Master Huo?" ”
Seeing that her gaze was consistent with her own, she smiled quietly again.
My cousin always said that he didn't care about Grandpa Huo, but he felt that sooner or later she would open her mind.
"The peacock is going to open the screen again." She withdrew her gaze with only a faint word.
In the memory of his previous life, Huo Xiaoting also participated in the dragon boat race this year, and he did not unexpectedly shine, and I am afraid it will be the same this year.
But this year's focus is not on him, Li Cha looked at the water in the distance, and a dragon boat gradually approached.
This dragon boat is the imperial ship of Emperor Jingming, the bow and stern are the head of the dragon and the tail shape respectively, the hull is connected by two two-layer heavy eaves pavilions, and the pavilion hangs a light gauze curtain, but at this time it has been hooked on the pillars, which is convenient for the people on the boat to enjoy the dragon boat race.
In the center of the top floor of the dragon boat, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe is naturally Emperor Jing Ming, and the one around him who is gorgeously dressed and beautiful is the concubine.
Li Qia fixed his eyes on it, and at a glance, he saw the concubine Li and the most eye-catching Empress Wei wearing a phoenix crown in the Flower Temple that day.
On the first floor of the dragon boat, Li Qia looked at several adult princes and princesses.
The dragon boat was driving on the river, and the people on the shore bowed to this true dragon emperor. And Emperor Jing Ming also looked at his people with a smile.
The dragon boat has arrived, which means that the dragon boat race will start soon.
This year's dragon boat race was held according to the old practice, divided into three groups: one group of 100 officials from the DPRK and China, one group from each military camp, and one group from each academy.
Now that they are ready to try, it is the group of 100 officials of the DPRK and China who are eager to try.
Li Cha's gaze was still faintly sweeping the three adult princes on the dragon boat.
Among them, the most handsome and arrogant face is Zhou Yi, the second prince of Empress Wei.
In her previous life, Li Hua used Wei Yiran in order to become the second princess, so she didn't even like the second prince, and even Li Hua didn't go because she was sick.
But when she later became the wife of the prince, she also attended the palace banquet with Huo Xiaoting and met the second prince, she can only say that the second prince and Li Hua are really right in terms of being proud.
To the left of the second prince is the eldest prince Zhou Su. Although Zhou Su is dignified and is also the son of Emperor Jingming, he has not been very popular.
The reason for this is rumored to be because the eldest prince was born to a palace maid and has a low status.
There are also rumors that when the eldest prince was young, he was raised by Emperor Jingming's wife, the first queen Yu, and was once very favored by Emperor Jingming.
It's just that later Emperor Jingming and Empress Yu's loving husband and wife became enemies. Therefore, Emperor Jingming can now think of Empress Yu when he sees the eldest prince, and he doesn't like him.
Li Qia looked at the eldest prince Zhou Su, although he was also handsome and Zhou Zheng, but he gave people an extremely restrained and even a little timid, which formed a great contrast with the second prince Zhou Yi beside him.
And she has to deal with the third prince Zhou Shuang today, and the word smug seems to be written on her face, which makes people unhappy when they see it.
Just because you want to be in the limelight in the dragon boat race, do you want to break other people's arms and legs? It's really a bit overbearing.
At the bottom of the pavilion, there were two princesses and the lord of Huilin, whose eyes seemed to fall out, looking for the people on the shore.
Li Cha lowered his head and stopped looking, and a mocking smile appeared on his cheeks.
When she put away her smile, the crowd of onlookers on both sides of the strait was already cheering, and the first group of dragon boat races had begun.
Thousands of sails are racing, the sound of drums, one by one dragon boats rush out like arrows off the string, neatly cutting out a series of waterlines on the water surface, which is spectacular.
And there was the red-haired carp, Xu was harassed, and jumped out of the water mischievously, as if he was also watching the excitement.
Huo Xiaoting, who was already preparing for the next group of competitions, looked at the dragon boat that was rapidly rowing in the water and jumped to the crowd on the case.
With today's excitement, can you not come and see the scourge?
I looked around, but I didn't find a primrose-colored figure.
There are so many gossips on the road today, it's better not to come.
I didn't expect that I would also be remembered by others, that is, at this time, everyone's eyes fell on the water, and quietly approached the dragon boat of Luanshan Academy, where the third prince Zhou Shuang was.
In fact, they were all competing in a group, and the dragon boats were all parked in one place, and she was only a few steps away from each other, so it was impossible to attract the attention of others.
Just like when she sneezes at this time, she can't divert people's attention from the dragon boat race on the surface of the water.
Li Cha took out a handkerchief and pretended to wipe his nose, but in fact he deliberately shook the oars of the dragon boat of the third prince.
As soon as the veil was put away, the bag of melon seeds she was holding in her arms fell to the ground "accidentally".
This kind of melon seeds that are not said to be a copy per person, but also belong to the must-have for watching the excitement are scattered on the ground, and who will take a second look?
Li Qia squinted and saw that the ants in the paper bag had crawled out, and hurriedly walked back to Wei Yiran's side.
Soon, the first group of races ended, and finally the dragon boat of the criminal department was the first to cross the finish line.
At this time, Huo Xiaoting had also stepped on the dragon boat and prepared to compete with the soldiers in the barracks......
