Chapter 70: The Contest of Lotteries

As soon as I heard this voice, it was still a little familiar, and when I turned my head to look, I found the dragon girl Ruan Xiu standing behind me. She was dressed in a gorgeous dress, and her whole person looked noble and dignified, but she looked a little haggard. The people who were still talking, when they saw the dragon girl coming, stood up one after another and said, "Xiaguan has seen the Ninth Princess. ”

Ruan Xiu had a cold face, glanced at Li Chuntian, and then took his gaze back. Ignoring these people, he dragged me and walked outside.

Everyone was amazed.

I asked the dragon girl, "What's wrong?"

The dragon girl dragged me to the gate of the palace, and after letting go of my hand, the dragon girl asked me, "Why did you get together with Li Chuntian?" ”

I said he brought me to the Dragon Palace.

The dragon girl said two words, stupid.

The dragon girl said, you and I will leave the Dragon Palace now. I said why? The dragon girl said that Li Chuntian may not be able to go back when he comes to the Dragon Palace this time, and you may be affected by him at that time, and maybe even your life will be lost in the Dragon Palace. I glanced at the dragon girl, and I didn't know what happened after she chased the black shadow out that day.

In fact, if I want to say that I don't know Li Chuntian quite well, I want to say that trust is definitely out of reach.

The reason why I came here is entirely because of Daoist Qiu's words, Li Chuntian can not believe it, but Daoist Qiu's words, I have to believe it.

I said to the dragon girl, "Ninth princess, how can there be any danger when the lower officials come here to celebrate the birthday of the dragon king." ”

The dragon girl still looked at me with the eyes of a fool. said lightly: "Now my brother's case has not been clarified, you can't be here." ”

I said to the dragon girl, "Don't worry, Ninth Princess. Xia Guan will not die here. ”

The dragon girl's face was a little pale, but her features looked much softer, and she stared at me for a few seconds before saying, "It's better to be like this." Then he turned and walked towards the palace. I froze in place for a few seconds and entered the Dragon Palace.

When I sat down again, the few people who had said I had said I had all shut their mouths and weren't attacking me.

It may be that Ruan Xiu found me, which invisibly helped me increase my status and prestige.

Li Chuntian looked at me, but didn't say anything. Not long after, a voice shouted, "Your Majesty has arrived!" ”

All of a sudden, everyone stood up, and I looked at the people sitting at the front table, all of whom were relatives of the Dragon King, for example, now, Ruan Xiu was sitting with the third prince.

When everyone was about to kneel, the dragon king said lightly: "It's all free!" Today's birthday of this king is a happy event, so you don't have to be expensive. ”

Everyone said in unison to thank Your Majesty.

The next step is the gift session, I was stunned for a few seconds, Li Chuntian said to me, don't worry, wait for you and the old man to use a gift.

When Yang Lin on the side heard this, he couldn't help but look at us with disdain.

I'm too lazy to bother with them. At first, it was a gift from several princes. Then there is the gift of the dragon maiden, this link really dazzled my eyes, are some unheard of, unseen treasures. After the dedication of the prince and dragon maiden.

It was the turn of the courtiers, and the gifts offered by the courtiers were not bad.

When it was Yang Lin's turn, he walked forward with steps, his back was a little arrogant, and he quickly took out a piece of jade, followed by a compliment, boasting that he was getting it from an extremely cold place, and after the dragon king received the gift, a smile appeared on his face.

Yang Lin came over, it was Li Chuntian's turn, Li Chuntian called me, and we stepped forward together.

We first met the Dragon King, and then Li Chuntian said: "Your Majesty, this gift was prepared by Weichen and Master Zhang together, and the gift is the Longquan Sword left by Goujian, the King of Yue. Specially dedicated to Your Majesty, I hope that Your Majesty will be immortal for thousands of years. ”

I followed with a congratulatory message.

The dragon king said, "Where did you get this sword?" ”

Li Chuntian said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Weichen fished it from the river." Specially preserved and dedicated to His Majesty. ”

After these words fell, someone laughed, and the third prince stood up: "Feelings, Lord Li casually picked up a piece of broken copper and iron to give to Your Majesty, you are too casual." ”

I saw the dragon king's brow furrowed.

I thought to myself, when others give gifts to the Dragon King, they are all smiling, why is it Li Chuntian's turn to become like this, maybe it is that the Dragon King does not care about the gift, but the person who gives the gift. Li Chuntian said: "Your Majesty, Weichen's heart is extremely sincere, and please accept it with a smile." ”

The dragon king waved his hand and let us go.

Yang Lin looked at us with a sneer and said, in this era, anyone can really see the Dragon King, just see it, and take a piece of broken copper and iron, it's really embarrassing.

The rest quickly chimed in. I was about to say something, but Li Chuntian shook his head at me and said, "If you can't help it, you will make a big plan." ”

I hummed.

After the dedication, the next step is the song and dance performance, and the beauties performing on it are in a middle and upper posture, but they can also be watched. During this time, I noticed that Ruan Xiu's gaze fell on me several times. After the song and dance performance was over, the ceremonial officials announced that the princes and princesses would compete for the prize for His Majesty's birthday.

After these words fell, the anger of the banquet was pushed to **.

Yang Lin quickly said, needless to say, His Majesty's Caitou this year must be the son of the prince.

Someone answered and said, and the official looked at it too. The third prince is first-class in terms of character and talent.

I glanced at Li Chuntian, it seems that only the children of the Dragon King can compete for this lottery, and I should not be qualified as an outsider. Li Chuntian gave me a look, as if to say don't be impatient.

Yang Lin was still talking, saying, I don't know what the lottery prepared by His Majesty this year is?

"I've heard what a great baby."

"Or is it not a baby, but something else? I have long heard that His Majesty intends to abdicate......" Before he finished speaking, he was stopped and said, this can not be said nonsense, be careful to lose your head. The man's face also changed suddenly, and he laughed a few times and said, "I'm drunk, just listen to it."

Li Chuntian and I are naturally not bored to the point of exposing him.

The ceremonial officer above continued: "Let's invite a few princes and princesses to come out of the list, Your Majesty wants to make a question." ”

After speaking, almost a dozen people stood up, and everyone's eyes looked over there, but at this time, Li Chuntian suddenly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen has something to report." Li Chuntian walked forward.

Kneeling down in front of the dragon king, the dragon king may be really happy, and this time he asked li chuntian to say with a smile.

Li Chuntian did not hesitate and said directly: "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen wants to recommend one person to participate in this lottery competition." ”

After these words fell, the entire palace was in an uproar, and all eyes were turned to Li Chuntian, and the Dragon King's face quickly darkened at this time.

Soon someone stood up to refute Li Chuntian, saying when it was his turn Li Chuntian to recommend candidates, over the years, His Majesty's birthday lottery was participated by several princes and princesses, when it was the turn of outsiders to participate, isn't it Lord Li himself who wants this lottery head, and wants to compete with several princes?

"This official thinks that this Li Chuntian has always been rebellious, Your Majesty did not punish you for capital crimes before, because Your Majesty was generous and merciful, and now you still have to make inches, what crime should you be? Your Majesty, Weichen begs Your Majesty to grant him the death penalty this time! ”

The sound of slamming rang out from time to time.

The third prince looked at Li Chuntian with a sneer, as if Li Chuntian was dead this time, and Ruan Xiu looked at me with a little more worry.

Li Chuntian was about to drown in saliva, and when they paused, Li Chuntian said unhurriedly: "All the adults are finished, right?" After that, it's the official's turn to speak. ”

This sentence immediately offended the anger of the public.

However, he was stopped by the dragon king, who said, "Let him speak!" ”

The voice was clearly full of anger.

Everyone looked at Li Chuntian's gaze, already with a sense of ridicule, as if they were waiting for Li Chuntian to be sentenced to death.

Li Chuntian adjusted his mood, completely unafraid, and then turned his head to look at me and said to me, "Zhang Yan, Master Zhang, come here." ”

Now the situation is a little bad, no wonder Li Chuntian said to me before, let me be a little bolder. Now that they have all taken a step, they are withdrawn and afraid, and it is naturally useless. I stepped forward, and as soon as I had taken a few steps, a hateful gaze fell on me.

But I didn't care.

Li Chuntian and I stood side by side, and Li Chuntian said loudly: "Back to Your Majesty, the person Weichen wants to recommend is the Yellow River God, Zhang Yan, Lord Zhang!" ”
