Chapter 157

"How do you count as a predestined relationship?" Before Qin Huaisu could speak, the man next to him who had just mentioned Chun Ying became interested and asked.

Many people at the Lantern Festival today are looking for the work of this wood master. The flower boat has earned enough gimmicks for this, attracting many dignitaries and scholars to take a look at it. Now I know that everyone may have this thing in their pockets In the middle, the crowd couldn't help being noisy for a moment.

Qing Guan may be a person in charge of a slightly higher status in this life, I saw him clapping his hands and ordering someone to take down the lantern, and passed in front of everyone's eyes, before a group of people admired, he put it back again, Speak when you are silent.

"The Lantern Festival has been around for a long time, and everyone ignores the rules. Master Mu left three riddles before his death. If anyone can understand the mysteries and answer the riddles, the lantern will belong to him."

This is different from the puzzles she has experienced before, Jiang Changning thought to herself, at the beginning, it was guessing puzzles and discussing shooting skills, I am afraid that Chunying has selfish intentions, thinking that Shen Dong, as a major general, has superb shooting skills Just make it easier for him on purpose.

"Do you have to answer all the three questions Mr. An said correctly?"

The man who looked like a scholar asked persistently with a fan.

"Mr. An." It was the handsome young man who shook his head upon hearing the words, "No, the one who answers two of the three questions first will be the winner."

"Then come!" Many people were eager to try.

"Those who want to participate in the competition, please take three steps forward. The young masters who did not register at the beginning of the competition, please keep quiet and don't disturb the competition."

Jiang Changning stood by Qin Huaisu's side and walked forward together. She was not able to participate because of her advanced archery skills, but she was able to give it a try this time.

Seeing that everyone is getting ready to fight and eager to try, Mr. Bo nodded, "Okay, the competition is just beginning."

"The first question: build a tall building with only one log, no tiles or bricks, people walk under the water, and the water flows on top of them."

The people below were still guessing and pondering, Jiang Changning lightly pressed the brow bone, which gave her an advantage, unexpectedly, the first question was the same as Chunying's question at that time.

"It's an umbrella."

Although he was a little embarrassed in his heart, Jiang Changning was determined to win this lamp, so he pondered for a moment before speaking.

Qin Huaisu's answer was ready to come out in his mouth, and just as he was about to say it, he heard the answer from the person next to him one step ahead of him.

"Correct answer." The astonishment on Mr. An's face was fleeting, and he was ready to answer the second question with a smile.

There are many people who sigh and don't understand why, but they have no time to take care of it at the moment, and they are busy waiting for the next question.

"Second question: In winter, the coiled dragon lies down, in summer the branches and leaves bloom, the dragon's whiskers grow upwards, and the pearls line down."

"Beaulieu? Is it an animal?"

"No, there are branches and leaves that should be plants."

"What are the dragon's whiskers? And pearls? Are they from the sea?"

……

A group of people were confused by these few words, but Qin Huaisu had gone through his mind several times and got the answer, "It's grapes."

"correct."

People who were still at a loss before heard the answer and they all got it right, "Yes, it's grapes! Aren't grapes just lying on the branches in winter and blooming in summer, with roots curved like dragons and round like pearls?!"

"Calm down, everyone. I'm going to ask the third question. It seems that the leader will be chosen among the two."

All eyes were on Jiang Changning and Qin Huaisu. Each of them got one question right, and as long as they got one more right on the third question, the winner would be decided.

"Third question: The spring is short, and one person is far away. From the center of the lake, the moon is on a blind date."

The third question was ambiguous, and I couldn't tell what direction it was at first. The boat fell silent for a while, and even some spectators were also thinking about it with frowning faces.

Mr. An intentionally reminded him, and said, "Play an instrument."

Jiang Changning was splitting these few sentences in his mind, when he heard this sentence, he suddenly realized, "It's Erhu."

Mr. An did not conceal his admiration, "Congratulations, Miss, for answering two questions correctly and winning this lamp."

Qin Huaisu came back to his senses a moment later and came up with the answer. He smiled and watched as the servant brought up the lamp and handed it to her.

Jiang Changning is more beautiful than a lamp, holding a lantern and laughing at Yan Yan is so beautiful.

Originally, there were princes of Qing nobles or literati who saw the lanterns they had coveted for a long time being taken away by Qin Huaisu with a few words, and felt a little dissatisfied in their hearts.But seeing that the lamp landed in the hands of a stunning beauty in the end, he felt that it should be so.

Mr. An held a glass of wine, and made fun of Qin Huaisu, his words were elegant and witty without being offensive.

Xu was in a good mood, and Qin Huaisu drank a few glasses with everyone with his brows relaxed.

When Jiang Changning came out of the flower boat with the lantern, Qin Huaisu's eyes were reddish and he was a little drunk.

Outside the flower boats is the bustling time, with river lanterns playing to guess lantern riddles, fiery trees and silver flowers in the sky, beautiful scenery, singing and dancing on good days, it is a time of peace and prosperity.

Qin Huaisu held Jiang Changning's hand, and the smile on his face never faded.

They avoided the crowd slightly and walked towards the moat.The willow branches lighten the Buddha, and there are clusters of flowers.There is a faint floral fragrance in the air.

The lantern in Jiang Changning's hand exuded a radiant light, making her face as smooth as jade.

The laughter of the girl's house was faintly heard upstream, perhaps it was releasing river lanterns, and pink lotus lanterns flowed down the river from time to time.The stars are scattered like stars in the sky scattered in the river.

The two walked onto the stone bridge, and they had a panoramic view of the entire moat and the scenery on both sides.

"Wait for me here." Qin Huaisu didn't know what to think, he walked down the stone bridge to the place where the girls put the river lanterns.

Qin Huaisu was as handsome as jade, and before he could speak, the girls with the river lanterns blushed in embarrassment.

Jiang Changning stood on the stone bridge with a lantern and waited quietly. She didn't know what Qin Huaisu said, but he looked in his direction, and a girl took a lotus lantern and handed it to him with a shy face.

The rest of the people also cast envious eyes.Jiang Changning couldn't find it funny looking at it, her red lips rolled slightly, her eyebrows and eyes became more and more beautiful.

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded from behind: "Sister——"

Jiang Changbai's voice was both surprised and happy.

Jiang Changning was caught off guard, a little surprised but more flustered.Apart from Qin Huaisu, she was not ready to meet anyone else.

After all, in this life, she is a dead person.

Jiang Changning unconsciously exerted some force on the hand holding the lantern. She looked at the scenery under the bridge without responding or looking back.

But the people behind were obviously unwilling to let her go, Jiang Changning heard the sound of messy footsteps, and one or two hurried dissuasion from a woman: "Sir, Jiang Changning is dead, you must have misread it."

"I'm not mistaken, it's her!"

The sound was getting closer and closer, Jiang Changning wanted to run, but he couldn't move even a little bit like a heavy boulder was falling on his feet.Jiang Changning blamed himself for not living up to expectations, and he didn't know how to see Jiang Changbai.

This life has protected her and hurt her brother.

She was flustered and confused, and her mind went blank.Just when he was at a loss, a pair of strong hands hugged his waist, and then Qin Huaisu who rushed over firmly protected him in his arms.

She heard Qin Huaisu's cold and stern voice: "Maybe Mr. Jiang has drunk too much and is confused."
