Seeing his father walking towards him from the inner hall, Gu Lingze's heart was even more up, thinking about the current bad situation, thinking of the terrible consequences of losing his eldest sister's dowry, and suddenly felt that the feather arrow in his hand was as heavy as a thousand pounds, and he couldn't throw it out.

When he came to his son's side, he still had a smile on his face, but Sen's cold and low voice showed that his heart was not calm, "Ze'er, don't worry, a temporary backwardness does not represent the final outcome, don't worry." ”

Listening to his father's comforting words, and the hand that was placed on his back to express relaxation, but the strength of his hand all expressed his father's anger and demand. All kinds of distracting thoughts in his mind were constantly surging, and the pressure on his body could not be stopped, as heavy as Taishan's feather arrows, he lifted it up with difficulty.

A small pot throwing game, an action that is usually easy to do, today I can't throw anything. Sweating uncontrollably on his forehead and back, buzzing in his ears, and chaotic in his mind, Gu Lingze felt blood gushing to his head, and his eyes suddenly darkened, and his body softened, and he was about to fall to the ground.

And Li Zhongming, who had long noticed Gu Lingze's abnormality, quickly got down and hurriedly helped Gu Lingze up.

The people around were also taken aback by the sudden situation in front of them, and Gu was even more anxious by the current situation, and his head was like a volcano erupting, thinking that the current predicament had not been solved, and there was a rumor that a child of the Gu family was stunned by the pot throwing game, and the reputation accumulated by the Gu family for several generations was going to be ruined in his hands, how could he be worthy of the hard work of the ancestors of the Gu family.

Looking at the fire in his eyes, Li Zhongming hurriedly shouted: "My little Langjun is young and weak, and now it is not easy to take turns many times. Now that he is fainting with all his strength, I also ask you Haihan to allow the Gu family to change people and fight again. ”

Hearing Li Zhongming's words of urgency, Gu Jing's face also eased, and he hurriedly arranged for his entourage to help Gu Lingze down. called the eldest son and the long-term entourage around him to his side, and finally asked Li Zhongming to join in.

"Now that the situation is urgent, how do you say to solve it?" , anxiously asked.

"Lord, there is still time, and we need to replace it with a master who is good at throwing pots to close the score."

"It's just that time is pressing, where can I find a master who is good at this?"

"There is also the age of the candidate who needs to be selected so that the other party can't make mistakes. Otherwise, if you find a pot thrower with a big age difference, you will only be laughed at by the people in Wu Mansion and the people who are watching from the sidelines. ”

……

Everyone was gossiping and expressing their opinions, although it sounded reasonable, but the candidates selected did not mention it at all, but they all looked at Gu Lingqing and Li Zhongming from time to time.

Considering the situation, I know that the time is urgent, and I can't spend more, and the specific candidates, regardless of the skill level of the pot thrower, are only the right age, and they are also related to the Gu Mansion, only the two people in front of them.

For his eldest son, he understands that he is not good at throwing pots and archery, even if he has been practicing in the mansion for several years, but Gu Lingqing really has no talent in this area. Although he insists on training every day, the success rate is not high.

On the contrary, Li Zhongming, who is new to the mansion, listens to some people in the mansion, but he has some talent, and he often trains more in private.

In addition, if Gu Lingqing played and still didn't catch up with the score in the end, then Gu Fu would not only have to return the dowry, but his face would also be cleanly lost, but he would also be talked about by others: The dignified eunuch's house has lasted for several generations, and there is no one available. But if Li Zhongming is allowed to play, then even if he still loses the bet, he can also claim to the outside world that he is arrogant and arrogant, has no fan, vainly tries to gain fame and reputation, and tries his best to recommend himself. And he was negligent and deceived by it. In this way, it can not only divert the attention of the world, but also remove the words and remove Gu Fu from the adverse effects after the gambling game as much as possible.

Turn the thoughts in your head back and forth, think about it again and again, and weigh it again. Gu Guo summoned Li Zhongming to the front and said in a gentle tone: "Zhongming, you have also been in the mansion for a while, and you can feel that the Gu Mansion does not owe you anything. Although the Gu Mansion does not have much kindness to you, but now that the Mansion is facing such a predicament, the only suitable person at the moment is you. ”

"The lord is serious, the humble people in the Ming Dynasty, can have low skills, and have no strengths, how can they take on this great responsibility", Li Zhongming knew that he had entered the house and began to practice archery, although he did not stop day and night, wind and rain, but the time was still too short. Even when I usually play pot games with the prince in the house, I have a very high winning rate and a great winning rate. However, this is not the time to be in the limelight.

After all, the current situation, if handled well, may be very profitable. But once it is not handled properly, it will definitely become the one who carries the black pot. In general, it is extremely risky to come out strong at this moment, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Seeing that Li Zhongming should not shirk, he knew what he was worried about, so he had to promise: "Zhongming, at this moment of crisis, don't shirk, I know what you are worried about." Don't worry, you just have to play at this time, no matter what the final outcome is, I won't blame you. After all, you're the only one right now. Even if we lose in the end, we can't let the Wu Mansion and others laugh at our Gu Mansion for being cowardly and unresolute, and we dare not fight......"

Then there were many pleadings, Li Zhongming saw this situation, and knew that the matter could not be shirked, so he had to reluctantly agree, but he still said in advance that he would leave a way out, and he also got a promise not to pursue it regardless of the situation.

Gu Guo and Li Zhongming officially stepped forward and said to Uncle Wu that Gu Lingze was fainting from strength, and only Li Zhongming was good at this in the house at the moment, so he hoped that he would take over. At this time, Uncle Wu, who was already far ahead, looked scared, waved his hand and said, as long as it was someone from the Gu Mansion, he didn't care.

Then the game continued, Li Zhongming, holding a feather arrow, took a deep breath, raised his hand, and a feather arrow had been thrown cleanly, with a clang, it had entered the mouth of the pot.

Seeing Li Zhongming's neat movements, Little Uncle Wu didn't care, and then threw feather arrows. Probably negligent, this feather arrow touched the teapot ear, but it jumped out again. And Li Zhongming still looked as usual, the movements in his hands were still steady, and a feather arrow was thrown cleanly, but this feather arrow was hit by the pot ear. Next, Uncle Wu also threw the feather arrow in his hand......

In this way, the two sides come and go, Li Zhongming plays steadily, and the feeling is getting better and better, while Uncle Wu plays a little abnormally, in order to increase the score difference, many feather arrows are thrown towards the pot ear, but unfortunately they jump out of the pot ear.

Therefore, under the competition, the score is gradually getting closer, and the score difference is also narrowing. However, the incense sticks were already burning, and there was not much left. Now the score is forty-four to thirty-six, and Uncle Wu is still in the lead.

After getting familiar with the feel, Li Zhongming held the feather and threw it, the action was still so standard, still so stable, the two feathers were fired together, the bell was doubled, the ears were completed, and the six chips were obtained.

At this time, Wu Xiaohou Ye gradually felt the pressure, stabilized his spirit, adjusted and adjusted his movements, leaned over, threw it, and made a slap through his ears, and he got four points.

Next, the two sides will meet each other in chess, and they will meet good talents, and the battle will be extremely fierce. With Li Zhongming's many adventures, and fortunately, his luck was excellent, and he threw many ears, which brought the score closer to 62 to 58. At this time, the incense sticks are nearing the end.

Under the two crisp impacts of the "bell", Uncle Wu threw a six-chip. The pressure immediately came to Li Zhongming, seeing that the time was about to come, Li Zhongming also stabilized his mind, tightened his body, a feather in his hand, and then carefully aimed at the mouth of the pot, a feather flew out cleanly, and slowly fell towards the mouth of the pot, "Huhu" went down along the mouth of the pot, and did not jump out, but leaned in the pot.

It turned out that this was a slap on the pole, ten chips, which also attracted everyone's voice. After all, leaning on the pole does not occur very often, and unless you are lucky or a master who is good at this for many years, you can't cast such a situation.

Such a situation also made Uncle Wu deeply dumbfounded, retracted his mind from the amazement, stared at the mouth of the pot in front of him, and was about to draw out the feather arrow, make a good move, and throw the arrow feather, when he suddenly heard: "The time is up, the time is up, the time is up, the time is up, the game is over, I announce the peace between the two sides."

It turned out that the incense sticks had burned out, and the game was over in the long green smoke.
