Chapter 424 Inquire about the news, opponent
"The imperial city is really lively, and I don't know which of these princes and princesses who came to win the competition has a better chance of winning, I heard that the gambling houses on the streets of the market are open, and they are betting on which side will win."
Xia Tan'er deliberately mentioned it intentionally or not, just to find out about Nanling's plan, and the fact that she was going to participate in the Kyushu Grand Gathering was currently only known to Feng Muchi Dongling Jiu and Xue Chen, and it was best to inquire about not being competitive at this time.
Although Xia Tan'er herself had collected more detailed information, there were some things that only these old opponents knew.
But Yan'er is not a brainless person, she didn't mention anything about Nanling, but she said it thoroughly in front of Xia Tan'er in Xiling and Beiling.
"There are two princesses and three princes who came to Xiling this time, the third princess Xiling Yao, the fifth princess Xiling Mo, the fourth prince Xiling Shi, the sixth prince Xiling Che and the seventh prince Xiling Bai."
"The two princesses are a step higher than Xiling Yao in terms of talent, as for the three princes, the slave only knows that the sixth prince Xiling Che is a fool, and he only knows that he has nothing else to do behind the third princess, and the other two have ordinary qualifications and the odds of winning are not high."
"There is a princess and two princes from Beiling. Beiling is located in the grassland and a cold place, they are very good at riding, and the eldest princess Beiling Xue is a leader, the strength is not inferior to men, riding and shooting are all good but do not like piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, it stands to reason that she should participate in the men's competition, the chance of winning is greater. ”
"Although the Kyushu event is divided into competitions for men and women, it is not required for men and women to participate, and it is good to win the competition in the end."
From this point of view, Beiling Xue is also one of her opponents, Xia Tan'er couldn't help but think deeply.
"Doctor Tan, is your room here?"
"Huh?"
Xia Tan'er looked at it in response, only to find that she had unconsciously arrived at the door of her room, and the oil lamp had already been lit in the room, needless to say, Tanglin Jiu must have been waiting inside.
She didn't know about the matter with Dongling Jiu, Nanling Dusk didn't know, if Yan'er went in, she would definitely find out about it, Xia Tan'er hurriedly found an excuse to send Yan'er away.
"Yes, that's right, Yan'er, you go back and take care of His Royal Highness the Second Prince, I still have to sort out the medicinal materials I brought out today, and I can rest after a long time, in case there is no one when His Royal Highness the Second Prince goes to bed, it won't be good."
Yan'er wanted to say something more, but after listening to Xia Tan'er's words, she agreed.
"Doctor Tan rests early, and Yan'er retires."
Xia Tan'er nodded, and only then pushed open the door after seeing Yan'er leave.
When entering, she didn't see the figure of Donglin Jiu, Xia Tan'er looked around and found that Donglin Jiu was already lying on the bed and closed her eyes to recuperate.
Xia Tan'er put down the medicine box, untied the cloak on her body, and gently walked to the bed on tiptoe and sat down.
Looking at Dongling Jiu's sleeping face, Xia Tan'er felt a touch of tenderness in her heart, Donglin Jiu's appearance was really good-looking, Xia Tan'er couldn't help but reach out and touch his cheek.
The cold fingertips were about to approach, and the big broad hand suddenly came out of the quilt, grabbed Xia Tan'er's hand, and put it back into the warm quilt.
"Why are your hands so cold?"
"Nine Emperor Uncle, you're awake."
"Well, this king waited for you in the room for a long time and didn't see you come back, so I had to come over and warm you first, where did you go?"
Tanglin Jiuzhi got up and sat on the head of the bed, and looked at Xia Tan'er in front of him without blinking, maybe tonight's candlelight was too gentle, Xia Tan'er's whole person seemed to be shrouded in a fog, and she wanted people to explore it in the haze.
"I don't know if you came over, I watched Feng Muchi and a few of them play mahjong in the dining room for a long time, if it weren't for Yan'er who said how could Nanling Dusk come, I really thought that it was Uncle Nine Emperor who used means to let them live here, so that I would not be alone with Xue Chen."
