Chapter 255 Bird Chaofeng
Chapter 255 The Hundred Birds and the Phoenix
After Chu Qing got off the boat, she didn't speak a word, and Li Tianxiao walked beside her without saying a word, wondering what she was thinking.
Originally, I planned to see the ice lanterns, but after Chi Luan and his sister made such a fuss, the two still had the intention to see the ice lanterns, but the annual ice lanterns were probably very novel, when Chu Qing and the others walked forward, secretly Wei consciously hid his figure, but because it was really lively, it was really not easy to walk.
Chu Qing turned her head and glanced at Li Tianxiao's side face. The other party pursed her thin lips tightly. She must be in a bad mood. Chu Qing guessed the reason. If she was the other party, the other party was almost killed. Although it was unintentional, in the end At the beginning, the other party really wanted to drag him into the water, and he was afraid that he would be afraid for a while if he thought about it.
Chu Qing thought for a while, and simply called the other party directly: "Brother Li, there are lantern riddles over there, let's go and have a look."
Li Tianxiao was stunned for a moment, turned his head, looked at Chu Qing's clear eyes carefully for a while, and suddenly nodded his head very slowly: "Okay."
When the other party said this word, they locked Chu Qing tightly, making Chu Qing feel like a prey locked by a falcon, and she had the illusion of being out of breath. Was it the previous ginger soup that had an effect, or the other party's gaze was too hot, Chu Qing felt a little uncomfortable, so she simply ignored the other party's answer and walked in the direction of the ice lamp, and got behind the queue, while Li Tianxiao was the one behind the line. On the other side, the two looked at each other, neither of them spoke, but Chu Qing never felt that their hearts were closer.
But besides her heartbeat, Chu Qing couldn't help being lonely. After tonight, she is still a minister, and the other party is still a king. She doesn't allow herself to go one step further. ,Can't.
These three words are enough to pull back the steps she has already taken, but thinking of Li Tianxiao's reckless jump into the water before, Chu Qing couldn't let herself be so hard-hearted, and didn't want to let herself worry about her mood. It's not good to go back to the palace, so she wanted to do something, at least to keep the other party's heart from being frozen by the lake from getting colder.
When it was time for Chu Qing to line up, Li Tianxiao on the right side also lined up. The two looked at each other, and then quickly turned their eyes away.
The rules of guessing lantern riddles are very simple. Guess once for one penny. If you win, you can choose an ordinary ice lantern. The last lamp is the King of Lamps, which was carved by skilled craftsmen of the Cangshu Kingdom for three months. It is called Hundred Birds Chaofeng.
A small ice lantern with a phoenix on the top and surrounded by hundreds of birds. Every bird is lifelike, which shows how precious it is. This lantern riddle guessing has been held for half a month, and until today, there are three days before the Chinese New Year. The time, still no one can guess.
However, this "Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix" ice lantern is at least worth a thousand gold, so if someone is willing to lose their fortune, if they try it, there is another rule of this ice lantern, that is, if the ten rounds really guess correctly, all the money spent in the end will be returned. The number will be returned, so many people flock to it, and people come and send it off.
Guess one penny once, but it is the first round, and then it is multiplied; the second round is ten pennies, followed by a hundred pennies, a thousand pennies... until the end, most people really can't afford it.
But most of them can't go on until the third and fourth rounds at most.
Lantern riddles are also random, so few people can guess correctly.
When Chu Qing and Li Tianxiao were standing on both sides, the hidden guard had already handed over the exchanged silver in person. Chu Qing looked at the silver bag handed over by the dark guard, and couldn't help but her ears turned red. She just tried it out. Guess an ordinary ice lantern and give it to Li Tianxiao, why does the other party think that he can guess a few more rounds correctly?
However, Li Tianxiao had already started the first round of lantern riddles. He didn't turn his head away, and looked extremely serious: "If you guess wrong, it will be deducted from your salary."
Chu Qing couldn't help but stare round her eyes: her monthly salary is only a few taels of silver, can't this be deducted completely?
Chu Qing also became serious, but fortunately the first three rounds were easy, Chu Qing quickly guessed right, the two of them seemed to be competing, the fourth round... the fifth round...
The other people in the line changed quickly, only these two pairs have not changed, and the people in the back line were still in a hurry, but then they couldn't help but shouted: "Yes, yes, yes! You must be right! !"
People on both sides gambled with each other, noisy and excited.
"We must be strong here!"
"Our side is already in the sixth round and you are only in the fifth round! Who is the best? Isn't it easy to see with a clear eye?"
"That's right again, these two sons are amazing!"
"Catch up, catch up, God, it's the seventh game..."
"Could it be that the Lantern King will be born from these two people tonight? Ahhh, these two sons are so good-looking and so smart, so the answer to this mystery turns out to be this answer..."
"Oh my god, it's the ninth inning..."
"..."
"The tenth round..."
"..."
Many people around Chu Qing and Li Tianxiao looked at the two of them, and couldn't help but get excited for them. After all, if they lost the tenth round, all the money spent earlier would be gone, and Bing Deng would also get it. No, I spent so much money to buy an ice lamp, thank you.
Chu Qing couldn't help but look at Li Tianxiao, the corner of the latter's mouth twitched, Chu Qing didn't want the other party to underestimate him, and saw that the lamp puzzle in the tenth game had already been solved, it was indeed much more difficult, but Chu Qing still He quickly thought of it, looked at Li Tianxiao, the smile on the corner of the latter's mouth became stronger, and there was a gentle smile in his eyes, the smile made Chu Qing's heart beat faster, he pursed his lips and said the answer directly, She believed that Li Tianxiao must also know.
The shopkeeper who was doing the lantern riddles got the news and rushed over. Seeing the two people, he couldn't help but get a headache. He originally made several teams because of the crowd, but now he has a headache. If these two people have passed the tenth round What can I do?
Is he going to make another one?
Li Tianxiao smiled and waited for Chu Qing to give the answer, but he threw the brush in his hand aside and said, "I don't know the answer to the tenth game."
Chu Qing looked over in surprise, the question is not difficult, how could the other party not know?
It's just that when she looked at Li Tianxiao, the latter blinked at her. Chu Qingxin's head seemed to have been hit, and she couldn't help turning her head quickly, and then she heard the sound of gongs and drums: "Congratulations!" My son, you are the king of this 'Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix' lamp."
The shopkeeper heaved a sigh of relief. He was really afraid of the double kings before, and he really didn't have the ability to make another "Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix" ice lantern. Now he just lost one. It's really lucky.
The shopkeeper quickly thanked Dade and sent everyone away, and then the half-month lantern show was over.
Everyone watched such a passionate battle, and couldn't help but praise Chu Qing one after another. She was so embarrassed that she couldn't help holding the exquisitely packaged ice lantern, and looked down. I don't know what material the ice lantern is made of. Yes, it looks like ice, but it won't melt. The lifelike birds and the phoenix in the center seem to be flying into the sky, and the colorful glazed lamps are spinning around, making the phoenix seem to become real and fly. Same.
Chu Qing couldn't help but directly brought out the ice lamp, which immediately attracted everyone's attention. They looked over frequently, but Chu Qing handed the lamp to Li Tianxiao: "Brother Li, why did you let me?" She didn't believe him The last round really couldn't be guessed, it was obviously for her.
Li Tianxiao looked over: "Is there?" There was no falsehood in his serious eyes.
Chu Qing was suspicious: "You really can't guess?"
Li Tianxiao said, "Of course."
Chu Qingdao: "Brother Li, are you sure you want to lie in front of a person who has been tortured and investigated all the year round?"
Li Tianxiao couldn't help smiling: "Then if I win, are you going to ask the shopkeeper to give me another one, or give me yours?"
Chu Qing's face turned hot when the other party looked at her, but she forcibly calmed down: "Of course it's for you."
Unexpectedly, Li Tianxiao really opened his hands, not only Chu Qing was stunned, but even Yu Zhufeng and Chi Jiaohu who came not far away and were blocked by the crowd were also confused: Isn't this the emperor?Do you really want to get the ice lamp back?What rare thing has the emperor never seen?
Chu Qing was also stunned for a moment, but she was indeed relieved. She was about to hand over the ice lantern when Li Tianxiao shook her head and said, "It's not this."
Chu Qing was stunned: "It's not this?" What is that?
Unexpectedly, when Chu Qing raised her head, she saw Li Tianxiao's serious face, but her thin lips moved, and said two words: "Repay the money."
Chu Qing: "..."
Yu Kuifeng: "..."
Chi Jiaohu: "..."
Yu Gufeng felt that he was blinded, so Chi Jiaohu ran away quickly, for fear that his sweetheart would feel that he was messing with the emperor, and it would be bad if he was so fussy.
Chu Qing almost forgot that there were silver coins returned under the Lantern King, and directly put the brocade box in front of Li Tianxiao. Go in, close it, and hand it to Chu Qing again: "Take it."
Obviously she won this class by herself, but after Li Tianxiao's action, it seemed like the other party gave it to her. Chu Qing stood there in a daze, but she didn't accept it or not. She always felt that if she did, what would happen? Strange, a hundred birds turn towards the phoenix...
"What? Didn't you win this? I've already taken the money back, and you don't owe me anything, but you got it yourself." Li Tianxiao spoke slowly, but the other party still said something reasonable, which made Chu Qing was completely unable to refute it, so she could only take it slowly, but it was obviously just an ice lamp, but she seemed to have accepted something, her pretty face was hot, and she felt that her appearance at this moment was probably indescribable.
