The henchman was just about to get up and retreat, when the third prince interrupted, "Also, after finding out who secretly contacted the Turks, they will kill me and not use it to return to me, so they will make the scene of being assassinated by the Turks." ”

"If this is the case with our master, our people may also be at risk of being exposed." The henchman kept persuading, "There should be room for change in this matter, and the master doesn't have to worry too much." ”

The third prince said resolutely, "It is better to kill a hundred by mistake than to let one go." ”

"We must do our best to protect these generals, they are all meritorious servants to the country. has been fighting on the battlefield for most of his life, and he doesn't deserve to be scolded by 10,000 people at the end. ”

"Yes, I will give the order to go down, please rest assured."

A carriage slowly stopped in front of King Jing's Mansion, and the ninth princess, supported by the attendants, couldn't wait to jump off the carriage and shouted, "Qingqing, where is Sister Qingqing?" Where is Sister Qingqing? "Uncle Duan's eldest princess is behind," Don't run away Xiao Jiu, you'll run and fall in a while." ”

Please Xia Qingqing walked out quickly, "I'm here,"

The ninth princess bumped into her arms, Xia Qingqing picked up a handkerchief and wiped the thin sweat on her forehead and said, "Don't worry, the ninth princess, the ice rink is behind, look at the sweat of this brain." ”

"Yesterday I received your invitation, she was happy, she didn't sleep almost all night, she came to trouble me early in the morning, and I came out early to look for you, today, I must be playing a little longer." The eldest princess just walked over with the second princess.

"It's easy to say, let's please!"

"I haven't congratulated you on the opening of Bai Yutang yet, and now the streets and alleys are spreading how chic and exquisite Bai Yutang's clothes and jewelry are, but unfortunately on the same day as the night banquet, a few of us couldn't go to congratulate you in person. But I've bought a lot of things. Princess Celestia winked at him.

Xia Qingqing didn't react for a while, "When did you send someone to buy it?" Why haven't I heard from me? ”

The eldest princess smiled again, "Naturally, I sent someone to buy it in disguise, otherwise." If you know, the three of us still have a place to spend money. ”

"Yes. I like that agate bracelet the most, it's just so beautiful. The Ninth Princess kept holding her hand.

"Thank you to the three princesses for cheering, this white jade pavilion is also something that I unintentionally figured out when I was idle, so let's have fun with everyone." Xia Qingqing was modest.

"What's the gadget where? In my opinion, it is definitely the latest trendy thing, and now, there are not many girls who do not wear your collarbone chain around their necks, and it is a coincidence, they are afraid of hitting the model, and many people will buy the accessories one by one and match them themselves. The second princess continued proudly, "The person I sent was clever and grabbed the most popular pearl clavicle chain, but I didn't buy it later." ”

"The two sisters are not as good as me, but I am a member?" The ninth princess looked proud.

Xia Qingqing was taken aback and asked, "Ninth Princess, you, did you buy 10,000 taels?" ”

"That's natural, I can get this 20% off in the future, and I can eat hidden dishes, it took a lot of effort."

"Qingqing, you underestimate Xiao Jiu, she is the richest among our sisters, her father has rewarded her all day long, even her monthly silver is higher than others, her family background is the most generous." Princess Celestia smiled and clapped her hands.

"I really didn't expect that." Xia Qingqing's face was surprised.

"There are not so many of our sisters, and we bought 10,000 taels together." The second princess explained to her.

"The princesses are too outward, as far as our relationship is concerned, you must be the most distinguished guest in our restaurant."

Xia Qingqing was just about to say something, but the Ninth Princess asked anxiously, "Sister Qingqing, what are some ways to play today?" ”

I had to swallow the words on my lips, "There are many ways to play," Xia Qingqing blinked playfully and said, "Why don't princesses guess." ”

"I can't guess, how many you have, you have to give me a range."

"The scope starts from the last time we played, last time we played ice skating and sledging, this time we will play a different one."

Everyone walked to the small pavilion next to the ice rink and sat down. Xia Qingqing beckoned the three of them and said, "Come and taste this herbal tea, but the finest hair tip has been soaked in ice cubes for a long time." ”

"Good tea," Princess Celestia said approvingly.

"Qingqing, you haven't made it clear to me yet, what are you playing today?" The ninth princess tugged at her arm and shook it.

"Let's play curling today." Xia Qingqing rubbed her face.

"What's curling?" The ninth princess was puzzled.

"What about curling? It's just an object that we take to skate on the ice, of course, we can't cross the dividing line, and at the same time you have to let go and let the curling stone slide on the ice to the designated area, if the curling stone can stop in the center of the place, then the score is the highest, we can compete with each other, and we can also use our skills to knock each other's curling stones out. ”

"Wow, that sounds so hard." The ninth princess's small face was wrinkled into a bun.

The eldest princess smiled gently, "That's too difficult, so let's go back?" ”

"No, I'm not, it's hard to come out, I must have enough fun, let's go, let's go, let's go now." The ninth princess couldn't wait to jump off the chair and drag Xia Qingqing to the ice rink next to her.

The eldest princess and the second princess followed them over, and what caught their eyes was that there were several things like leather balls on the ice rink, and a handle was made on them, and not far away, three concentric circles were drawn on the ground.

The ninth princess was about to run, but Xia Qingqing grabbed her, "Princess, this curling stone has weight, you try it first and see if you can pick it up?" ”

The Nine Princesses ran to the smallest curling stone and picked it up with all her might. "I can see that I've picked it up."

"Awesome, but we're not going to win this game by picking up the curling. And in the process of curling and skating, the requirement is not to leave the ice. Xia Qingqing shook her head lightly.

"Ah, then why did you let me pick it up?" The Ninth Princess's mouth widened.

Xia Qingqing touched her nose weakly, in fact, she just wanted to tease the ninth princess, so she had to say, "This is to test your strength?" I'm afraid you won't be able to push it for a while. ”

Hearing this, the ninth princess placed the curling stone like a weighing stone on the ground, clapped her hands, and said casually, "Don't worry, this princess has a lot of strength, just don't lose and cry for a while." ”

The eldest princess smiled, "Don't worry, Xiao Jiu, we definitely won't cheat." ”

"Eldest princess, second princess, I also made a few curling stones of different weights, and the two princesses also tried to see if they could push this curling stone to the designated place? If you can't, let's change to a lighter one, let's definitely take it heavier than the ninth princess, so it's fair to the ninth princess. ”

Xia Qingqing pointed to a few curling stones, motioned for the two princesses to try them, and took the lead in making a move as she spoke, "Squat down slightly, the goal and the curling stones are in a line with your eyes." ”

"The whole person is running forward quickly on the ice, while the arms have been straightened, the speed of running can not be too fast, not too slow, and finally let go of the curling according to the inertia to let the curling slide out by itself, at this time the hand must not be more force, otherwise it will affect the direction of the curling."

As he spoke, he flicked his wrist and the curling stone went straight to the side.

He continued, "Look, if you push your wrist, the curling will run to the side. A few princesses can practice first. ”

"The Ninth Princess saw how well she skated in curling. Suddenly got up and said, "I'll come, I'll come first." Make a line out of pale cyan ice on the ice. Xia Qingqing pointed and said, "The curling stone of this one was deliberately added with color when it was made, and here is the beginning where we must let go and let the curling slide freely, and the three concentric circles on the other side of the area are arranged side by side with different colors, and the outermost layer is light blue." The second layer is pale green, with a pale pink in the middle, and only the one who leaves the curling intact in the middle wins, and we have two out of three rounds, with three throws per person at a time. ”

"In other words, there will be a total of nine pots in the concentric circles at the end, of course, if anyone throws out of bounds, it can't be counted, and at the end we will see who has the best results."

"That's the point at this time," Xia Qingqing's tone was even more brisk. "When we knock someone else's curling stone out, we also have to prevent our own curling stone from being knocked out."

"Sounds like a lot of fun to play." The second princess said.

"Sister, why don't we try it first and see if it can go well? Start by throwing the curling stones into concentric circles. ”

After getting ready, the three of them began to throw the curling stones in turn, and the nine princesses took the lead in running the concentric circles, but the speed of the curling was too fast, and they directly slid out of the range of the outermost concentric circles. The eldest princess followed, and Kankan stopped in the outermost concentric circle, and the second princess's strength was neither fast nor slow, just enough to make the curling stone fall firmly in the innermost concentric circle. It's just that the position is slightly off, and with a little more force, it can be in the center.

The ninth princess sighed regretfully, "Oh, I have to vote, it's still the best for the second sister." ”

The second princess reassured: "Don't worry, take your time, try a few more times, and find the trick." ”

"yes, let's try again."

The Nine Princesses held her breath and stared, ran a few fast steps rhythmically, and let go of her hand at the right time, and the curling stone rolled straight in the direction of the central circle. "Wow, that's great, I've got to be in the center."

"Xiao Jiu is awesome."

"Then let's start the official competition now," the ninth princess said, taking the opportunity, "and that's if I finish throwing one." ”

"Okay, let's get started!" Princess Duanshu said.

After round after game, several people were exhausted. Not surprisingly, Xiao Jiu really won the first place in this competition. "Alright, that's it, I don't have the strength to play with you anymore," said the eldest princess.
