The three rounds have passed, and then the fourth round will begin.

Emperor Xiqi nodded, and immediately a eunuch pushed four carts full of bamboo tubes up. Those bamboo tubes are palm-long, and the child's arms are thick, and one side is sealed, and the other side is stuffed with wooden stoppers, and I don't know what to do.

The eunuch sighed and announced the rules of the game, "This round is about ingenuity, these are hollow bamboo tubes, there is an ancient saying in Xiqi, called there is Qiankun inside, and we also have Qiankun in these bamboo tubes." ”

After speaking, he picked up the bamboo tube prepared in advance, untied the seal of the wrapped straw rope, and showed the contents of it, one stuffed with cotton, and the other inside, a stone bead wrapped in cotton.

He took the bamboo tube and said, "In each car, there are eight hundred bamboo tubes, but only five of the tubes have stone beads, and after a while, the miscellaneous family will light half a pillar of incense, and whoever can find the five pieces of runyu hidden in it before the incense candles are extinguished, that is the winner of this game." ”

After speaking, a little eunuch carried a low table, on which there was an incense burner, and in the middle of the furnace was half a thin incense.

The bamboo tubes on the car are piled up like a hill, even to count, you have to count the time of the two pillars of incense, and it is not easy to find the stone beads in them before the half pillar of incense.

The prince of Beili turned back to look at the military envoy, and the two whispered something on the side.

Baili Tianqi stared at the bamboo tube and asked, "May I ask the eunuch, but can you use auxiliary tools?" ”

The eunuch Sima said, "Naturally, it can be used, what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince needs, even if he is told." ”

Baili Tianqi nodded, and didn't say what tools he wanted for a while, Xuanyuan Chen was silent, but Ziheng frowned, and his face was slightly anxious.

Four teams of people, three teams each win a game, but Xiqi's own talents have no color, if they don't win a game, they can't hang their faces......

The big eunuch saw that everyone had no objection, and with a nod, a little eunuch sent a fire fold, and he lit the incense, and the game began.

Almost at the same time as the incense was ignited, the five people of the prince from Beili rushed forward like arrows, and quickly opened the bamboo tube with a bamboo tube, which was really fast, and in a moment of effort, more than a dozen were disassembled.

However, more than a dozen or eight hundred, after all, there is a long distance, even if the speed is fast enough, the time of half a pillar of incense, I am afraid that it will not be able to be dismantled.

I saw Baili Tianqi earlier, but I just said something to the little eunuch on the side, and the eunuch took the order, and walked away in a hurry, and after a while, he took a balance and came over.

Baili Tianqi ordered people to divide the bamboo tube into ten piles of several parts, put them on the scales, leave the slightly heavy side to open, and eliminate the light one.

Stone beads are heavier than cotton, so it is a good way to weigh them. However, today's wind is strong, and the scales are always unstable, so he was busy for a long time before he found a stone bead.

Looking at Xuanyuan Chen and Ziheng, the two of them were standing still, and they were both staring at the bamboo tube to find a way.

than clever ...... It must be that the cards are played with uneasy common sense, and in what way will it be fast and simple......

I thought about it for a long time, but I didn't get along, so I picked up the tea cup on the table, squeezed the floating tea leaves with the lid a few times, and took a sip. When I was about to drink, a small insect flew from the side, Rongzi raised his eyes and quickly flicked it, I wanted to fly the worm, but it was impartial, and it happened to be dialed into my tea cup.

"Uh...... Hehe, it wasn't on purpose" he smiled dryly and handed over the teacup, "Otherwise, you can drink my one." ”

I ignored him, but looked at the little worm that was struggling with its wet wings in the teacup, and suddenly thought of something.

Water! That's right, with water!

"Someone." Almost at the same time, Xuanyuan Chen and Ziheng in the center of the field shouted at the same time, and immediately a little eunuch ran over in broken steps, and the two of them whispered a few words to him, and the eunuch turned around and ran, and in just a moment, he carried two large vats full of water.

Xuanyuan Chen and Ziheng looked at each other, and they both showed an appreciative smile.

The so-called heroes see the same thing, and that's it.

The two did not hesitate, and hurriedly ordered people to pour the bamboo tubes into the water in batches.

The stone beads are heavier than cotton, and they sink when they encounter water, Xuanyuan Chen fished out the bamboo tube that sank in the water, untied the straw rope seal, and a stone bead was found, and he concocted it in the same way, and soon found the second and third stone beads.

Looking at Ziheng, his speed was not inferior, and he actually found four stone beads.

Seeing that the fine incense was about to burn out, everyone was nervous, at this time, Ziheng quickly poured the remaining bamboo tubes into the vat, and then scooped up the sunken bamboo tubes and shouted, "My team has found them all!" ”

Everyone stopped what they were doing to see, and he hurriedly untied the straw rope in his hand, and it was indeed the last stone bead inside.

The old emperor also had a smile on his face and nodded gently. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The prince of the north has been busy for so long, only to find two beads, Baili Tianqi only found three, Xuanyuan Chen glanced at Ziheng, hooked his lips and smiled, put down the bamboo tube in his hand that had been removed a few times, changed it to a bow, and congratulated Ziheng.

After three rounds of competition, it was finally Xi Qi's turn to win, and everyone in the stands held back their strength for a long time, and this time they finally had the feeling of raising their eyebrows, and hurriedly applauded and hit the table.

The eunuch Sima Shang announced loudly, "In the fourth round of the competition, the Xiqi team won!" ”

In four competitions, the four teams each won one game, which can be described as equal, but there is only one princess, which is not easy to do.

Who the princess will fall to, you have to watch.

The eunuch took a deep breath, bowed his head and listened to something from His Majesty, then got up and announced in a loud voice, "The four teams all won a game, it can be said that Wen Taowu has its own merits, and if you want to decide the victory, you should add a game." ”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

He breathed a sigh of relief and said loudly, "I, Princess Xiqi, is a celestial person, virtuous and gentle, if I marry, I must also marry a sincere person." Therefore, this last game is more sincere than that. ”

"Really?" Beili was happy with the eldest prince, and immediately said, "Is this still worth comparing, I, Murong Hao, am the most sincere, what the princess wants, just say it, delicacies from the mountains and seas, jewelry, as long as she says it, Murong Hao will naturally put things in front of the princess, just want the stars in the sky, if there is a way to take it off, Murong Hao will not be ambiguous. ”

The eunuch said with a smile, "The eldest prince is really temperamental, but my tenth princess of Xiqi is the emperor's pet, the pearl of His Majesty's palm, there is no shortage of delicacies and delicacies, feed a true heart, ten thousand gold is rare." ”

The prince of Beili thought about it, so he nodded and said, "It's okay, what kind of comparison is it, you can tell me and listen to it." ”

As soon as the eunuch waved his hand, Gong E sent a few cups and boxes in broken steps, lifted the lid lightly, and took a few steps back.

Everyone looked at it, and they were all secretly surprised.

This is......

"Oh my god, this is a magnification move, hmm!" Eiko grinned, almost retching.

I also slowed down a bit to stabilize my mind.

Scorpion......

In the four cups, there are live overlord scorpions, and His Majesty will not ask for ......

The eunuch said, "Here, they are all overlord scorpions with treated tails, all of them are non-poisonous, if anyone really wants to marry a princess, they will eat one, and my princess Xiqi is his wife." ”

Danger and temptation are together, and if you eat a scorpion, you will get the princess and Xiqi as a backup. That sounds like a pretty good thing.

However, the team leader, who is either the prince or the prince, usually pampered, will not take a second look at the poor dishes, and now let them eat those scorpions, this thing is not easy to do.

Everyone's faces were not very good, and Baili Tianqi's face was even darker. He glanced at the princess under the canopy, and then at the scorpion, and his eyes deepened slightly.

I'm guessing he's struggling with his heart.

I went to see Xuanyuan Chen again, he just bent his lips, Ziheng frowned slightly, but the prince of Beili had a complicated face, a waiter behind him took two steps forward, carefully touched the cup, and an overlord scorpion raised its tail suddenly, he was frightened, and took several steps back before stopping.

"How is it, what do the envoys think?" The eunuch tried to ask.

Xuanyuan Chen directly replied, "Xuanyuan Chen has been afraid of these scorpions since he was a child, and this time he came for his brother, so I won't participate in this game." ”

The eunuch hurriedly returned the salute and arranged for someone to lead him to the upper seat and sit down.

Ziheng also seemed to want to resign, but when he saw Lord Zuo Xiang's fierce eyes, he didn't say anything more.

Baili Tianqi didn't speak, the prince of Beili had a complicated face, and his country's talents were also Mu Ne's non-advance and non-retreat, and the scene fell into embarrassment for a while.

I picked up a piece of jujube cake and put it in my mouth to chew slowly, Rong Ziyang came over and asked, "Hey, sister of the Su family, which of them do you say will eat scorpions?" ”

I guess, it should be Baili Tianqi.

After all, in his eyes, nothing compares to the grand cause in his heart. For the sake of the grand cause, for the sake of military power, he can do anything. What is a mere overlord scorpion, gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, married a beautiful woman, and got Xi Qi, what a beautiful good thing.

Rong Ziyang touched his chin a few times and said, "I guess, it will be Murong Hao, the prince of Beili." ”

"I also guess it will be the prince of Beili." Ji Yunchang, who had not spoken, also spoke.

Seeing that I was a little unconvinced, he seemed to laugh a little, but did not explain.

As if to verify his words, the prince of Beili suddenly shouted, "Princess, Murong Hao really likes you." ”

With that, he took a big step, grabbed one of the largest scorpions, and put his head in his mouth, even though it was far away, I still heard a rattling sound.

I was chewing the jujube cake, and suddenly I felt sick to my stomach, and after enduring it for a long time, I finally threw it up......

"Are you alright?" Ji Yunchang hurriedly handed over the teacup. I took a big sip and took a sip to ease my head.

"Good!"

There were several cheers in the audience, and it was Murong Hao's entourage cheering for him. In this way, the prince of Beili naturally won this game.

Someone had already brought a tea cup and asked him to drink water and clean his mouth, Gong E hurriedly came over and hung the red Jinqiu that had been prepared on his neck, and there were blood stains on the corners of his mouth that were cut by scorpion shells, but his eyes were full of excitement.

According to the agreement, the princess is his princess.

The prince of Beili got what he wanted, laughed, held his shoulder with his right hand, saluted His Majesty first, and then turned around and raised his arms and shouted a few times. The rest of his entourage also jumped with cheers, and the scene was extremely lively for a while.
