Because Chu Xue wanted to hide his identity, there was no palace mark on the carriage they sat in, and they had to make more avoidances along the way, and it was also thanks to the fierce and powerful faces of the coachmen who drove the carriage, and there were six cold-faced ink guards next to the carriage, so that they had a place in the crowded crowd.

Even so, it took them more than three times as long as usual to reach the banks of the Luoshui River, where dragon boats were raced outside the city.

The Luoshui River originates from the Tata Mountain of the Di people in the north, and goes around the city, which is not only the river of life of the city, but also the natural barrier of the city. At this time, Luoshui, which flows quietly on weekdays, is full of people and is very lively.

Bai Lu got off the carriage, looked up, only to see a distant mountain at the end of the sight, a few pieces of Jiangzhu, the sunny day in May, the blue sky is as high as washing, you can faintly see the Luoqing Mountain flowers on the other side of the river, and the white clouds are dotted on the tip of the Luoqing Mountain of the green raindrops, which makes people feel relaxed.

But the most attractive thing is not the beautiful scenery that makes people feel refreshed and happy, but the dragon boat in the middle of the river that is several stories high, the dragon head of the dragon boat is high, huge and spiritual, the carving is exquisite, the dragon tail is high and rolled, and the dragon body has several layers of heavy eaves pavilion. The hour was still early, and only a circle of guards standing like pines in uniform armor could be seen around the dragon boat.

Lingrui Wangfu has a special position with a good line of sight on the Xiangyan boat next to the dragon boat, but with the identity of the two, getting on the boat will inevitably cause speculation from all sides, you must know that Lingrui King is a hot fragrant dumpling in the court, King Xian has married a concubine, and King Yan has a bad reputation, although this Lingrui King is not from a good background, but he was born with a dragon and a phoenix, heroic and compelling, and he is a rare husband and wife candidate. Therefore, the young ladies of each family all sharpened their heads and wanted to enter the palace, and their father's family was also happy to see it.

King Lingrui is from a bad background, so if he becomes his father-in-law, he will definitely rely on him even more.

Under the dots of the painting, the group still sought a place on the shore not far from the dragon boat. This area is the family of wealthy businessmen or officials of lower status who cannot board the ship, and when they see the two of them, they all look at them secretly. Seeing that although the two girls were covered by hats, they had a graceful demeanor and a noble temperament, and even the two girls who followed were also very beautiful, so a young and handsome son wanted to come up to talk, but was mercilessly blocked by the black-faced Mo Wei.

Because the hat affects the line of sight after all, Bai Lu saw that there were many women who did not wear it, so she took off the hat and handed it to the spirit on the side, so that her brilliant face appeared in front of people, especially the pair of deep blue eyes, the eye waves flowed, which was more memorable than the clear water and green mountains.

Listening to the poetry next to him, the voice that showed his own romance was higher than one wave, and the first snow under the hat smiled faintly.

But Bai Lu didn't pay attention to this, her eyes were attracted by the ten small dragon boats side by side on Luo Shui. This year, because of the presence of Emperor Liang, the dragon boat race has been held as early as half a month ago, and now the rest is ten to enter the finals, King Xian, King Yan, King Lingrui naturally occupy a seat, and the rest have the right Li family, the salt merchant Lu family, the richest man in Luocheng Zhuge family, Lingnan Yu family, Miao Jiang Chayue family, and the remaining two are from the city defense battalion and the Praetorian Guard.

Her eyesight is naturally incomparable to ordinary people, and at this moment she can see the people on the boat clearly, each dragon boat is equipped with ten racers and one drummer. I saw that everyone was healthy wheat-skinned, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and knotted muscles, only Miao Jiang Chayue's house, the first drummer on the right side of the dragon boat, was petite than everyone else, and his complexion was white, and his eyebrows were delicate.

She unconsciously let out a "huh".

"What's wrong?" Hatsuyuki, who was quietly observing, asked.

"The drummer of the Chayue family is petite and white than everyone else!" She didn't have the heart to say it bluntly.

"Being tall and mighty doesn't necessarily mean you're strong, and being thin doesn't mean you're powerless. We can't judge people. You see that Brother Mo Sheng is thin, but his skills are very extraordinary. Besides, dragon boat racing pays attention to cooperation, not relying on the strength of the horseman alone. Besides, the weather in Miaojiang is hot and humid, and the people there are mostly smaller than other places. Chu Xue seemed to be a mentor and friend, and said earnestly, listening to Bai Lu's words and nodding frequently.

"But ......" Chu Xue half-narrowed her eyes, carefully distinguishing a little, and said, "It's so far away, can you see so clearly, white girl?" ”

Bai Lu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't think of a good reason to explain it for a while, so he had to laugh twice, reminding himself in his heart that he had to keep in mind the difference between him and humans in the future.

Chu Xue seemed to want to say more, but the nine magnificent drums stopped her words, and everyone looked in the direction of the drums, only to see a tall and tall official standing on the dragon boat, singing loudly: "The emperor has arrived!" The ceremonial officer should have internal strength, and this strong voice spread all over the riverbank by the wind, and everyone knelt down, bowed their heads, and shouted long live.

After three long live sounds, the air was silent, only the sound of birds chirping.

After all, Bai Lu still didn't suppress the curiosity in his heart, and looked up at the dragon boat, only to see a middle-aged man of medium stature, wearing a yellow dragon pattern python robe and a tassel jade crown on his head, under the escort of two tall young men, one left and one right, on the open platform on the dragon boat.

The one on the left is Ning Mosheng she is familiar with, the one on the right has a pale face, and there is a hidden disease in her body when she sees it, but she doesn't know it, she is looking at it vigorously, Ning Mosheng, who was originally looking straight ahead, suddenly turned his head over, his eyes swept in her direction, his sword eyebrows frowned slightly, she hurriedly buried her head, and did not get up with everyone until she heard the flat body of the ceremonial official.

After Emperor Liang personally sprinkled three cups of imperial wine to pay tribute, the dragon boat race finally officially began.

In fact, the schedule is only three miles long, but the remaining ten are elites, so you chase after me, and the tension is extremely high. The sound of cheering on the shore is endless.

The dragon boats of Lingrui Wangfu and Xianwangfu have always gone hand in hand, followed by the Miao Jiang Chayue family, sure enough, although the drummer is thin, the strength of his hands is amazing, and the drumming is agitated, and the momentum is dry.
