Chapter 43 – I’Ll Try
Chapter 43 Let me try
The flower boat is very big, two stories high.
The carved columns and painted buildings are extremely extravagant. The pavilions are stretching, with cornices and corners. The lights above are brightly lit, and you can vaguely hear the melody of silk and bamboo, as well as the woman’s charming smile.
Standing on the ship tower, you can overlook the entire moat surrounded by smoke.
There were two handsome teenagers waiting outside the flower boat, and when they saw Chunying and her party coming over the moon, they rushed to meet them.
”Sister Chunying.” One of the teenagers had a small red mole at the end of his eye, his eyes passed over Chunying and landed on the faces of Jiang Changning and the others, and he was stunned.
Be good, these are some gods.
“Don’t rush the distinguished guests.” Chun Ying frowned slightly, and reprimanded her.
The young man came to his senses, and greeted Jiang Changning and others onto the boat with red faces.
Entering the flower boat, there is a hidden cave, the crystal curtain falls, and the veil hangs down.
Amber wine, jasper cups, gold-footed bottles, emerald dishes, picturesque food, spring-like wine, zithers and bells.
It is surrounded by upside-down bell-like flowers, the calyx is pure white, with translucent luster like bone china, surrounded by layers of pearls, clusters of beautiful clusters.
The crystal bead curtain is meandering and pouring. Behind the curtain, someone is playing the piano with gauze, and the sound of the piano flows between the fingertips.
When the layers of waves are exhausted, the flames of the Albizia Julibrissin bloom in the air, and the light swirls like snow, reflecting the beautiful faces of the beauties.
A lantern hangs high in the middle of the building boat. It is square, and each side is hollowed out with a small golden flower. The texture of the petals is clearly visible, and it is lifelike through the candlelight. There are two grinning green dragons engraved on the handle, which is different from the dignified and majestic people are familiar with in the past, it looks very vibrant and beautiful.
Master Wood usually embodies the texture of sculpture in the complex and complex, and every moment is like a finishing touch to show vitality. This lantern is the last swan song of his life, and it can be called a handed down work.
Hong Xing followed Jiang Changning to the point of being speechless in amazement, fearing that she would lose her manners outside, so she held back her silence.
Jiang Luo rushed up from behind, stood under the lantern to look at it, and let out a few exclamations sincerely.
Qin Huaisu stood by Jiang Changning’s side, and the people next to him showed more or less surprise and yearning, but Jiang Changning didn’t respond, he turned his head to look curiously.
Jiang Changning stood not far from the lantern, just enough to see the top of the lantern from a distance, and saw the little blue dragon on the handle with its teeth and claws. Although he didn’t move much, his eyes showed a trace of restrained appreciation.
Jiang Luo turned her head to catch a glimpse of Jiang Changning’s expression, and deliberately made her unhappy, and said first: “This sticky lantern is really a masterpiece of Master Mu. I like it very much after seeing it. If I got it, I would hang it in the room every day. You will be very happy to see it.” Saying that, she lowered her head lonely towards Gu Xiujing’s direction.
Gu Xiujing felt pity for the prince of the Duke’s Mansion when he couldn’t even give a lantern to a woman, so he said, “Miss Chunying, I wonder if this lantern can be sold to Gu?”
Before Chun Ying could speak, Shen Dong sneered. He had seen this lamp early in the morning, and he didn’t have much interest in dancing swords and guns on weekdays, but now he didn’t want to fulfill Gu Xiujing’s wish.
Chunying thought exquisitely, turned around, and said: “I’m sorry, Mr. Gu, when Master Mu entrusted this lamp, he specifically instructed not to sell it in the market. This lamp incorporates the master’s hard work, and it is to be given to someone who is destined.”
Chunying asked someone to put down the lantern, and she walked over with Niaoyou to let everyone have a closer look, and continued: “The master once asked two questions for the owner of this lantern, and the winner is the predestined person who can own this lantern.” .”
“What’s Miss Gan Chunying’s question?” Gu Xiujing asked.
Chun Ying passed the lights one by one in front of everyone, turned around and walked straight ahead.
“There are two questions in this question. The first question is about guessing lantern riddles according to the tradition. The second question is about shooting skills. If someone can pass through the flying leaf hanging in the corridor and hit the bull’s-eye, he will win.” Chun Ying His finger pointed to an archery target that was almost fifty paces away. A knuckle-sized green leaf hung up under her command.
Jiang Changning looked at the archery target, and she claimed to be competent at the first guessing riddle, and she would have no problem with the accuracy of simple archery, but this distance has to pass through the green leaves, and her arm strength is still lacking.
It should be that there is no fate with the lantern, Jiang Changning’s expression darkened.
Qin Huaisu’s eyes stayed on Jiang Changning’s face, he understood what she was thinking, and took a step forward: “This king also wants to try.”
Shen Dong followed suit, “General Gaben.”
Jiang Luo had already stood by Gu Xiujing’s side, covered by her robe, she gently shook Gu Xiujing’s hand, showing expectation.
Gu Xiujing was a little hesitant at first. Although the six arts of a gentleman are among them, he is still inferior to the other two because he does not know martial arts, but he is a little confident about lantern riddles.
He nodded slightly, and his subordinates patted Jiang Luo reassuringly, and stepped forward: “Miss Chunying, let’s make a question.”
“Okay, the first question: build a tall building with only one log, without tiles or bricks, people walk under water, and water flows over them.”
Everyone was still thinking, but Jiang Changning already had the answer.
“But the wooden bridge?” Shen Dong hesitated.
Chun Ying bent her lips, shook her head and said, “No.”
As if suddenly enlightened, Gu Xiujing and Qin Huaisu answered at the same time: “It’s an umbrella.”
Haru Sakura nodded, “It’s an umbrella.”
The answer in Jiang Changning’s heart was confirmed, and his expression relaxed.
“Ah—” Hong Xing was still guessing in her heart, and suddenly realized when she heard the answer.
Gu Yan followed behind Jiang Luo, the two looked confused and confused.
The first question was solved, and a group of people followed Chun Ying’s footsteps to the corridor.
The flower boats are on the lake, and the promenade is a place to enjoy the scenery. The evening wind blows, and the carved railings and painted buildings are reflected on the water, shining brightly.
The green leaves tied by a thin rope are drifting with the wind, and it is even more difficult to hit the bull’s-eye through it.
This is Chun Ying’s selfishness, she prepared this question for Shen Dong, in her heart, no one can beat General Shen when it comes to archery.
“Each person has three arrows, the one who completes all the conditions and hits the arrow wins, and the one who wins the most two questions wins the lantern. Who will come first among the adults?”
When it comes to archery, Shen Dong naturally has a well-thought-out plan and is the first to step forward. “I’ll come first.”
The rest have no comments.
Shen Dong was skillful. He stood at the designated place and stretched out his bow to shoot an arrow. The evening wind blew his tall hair, and his tall and straight figure made Chunying not far away secretly blush.
The arrow pierced through the air, pierced through the swaying green leaves and hit the bull’s-eye straight, and the arrow succeeded.
Chun Ying frowned, and the sound of congratulations sounded.
Jiang Luo was upset at the bottom of his heart, this question was unfair, so he squeezed the veil tightly in his hand angrily.
Jiang Changning subconsciously glanced at Qin Huaisu, but saw that his old **** was there without any disturbance.
Qin Huaisu raised his chin slightly to signal Gu Xiujing, “You come first.”
The outcome of the left and right has been decided, Gu Xiujing looked unhappy, and he was persistent in drawing the bow, one arrow, two arrows, three arrows.
Except for the first arrow which hit the target even though it didn’t touch the green leaves, the other two arrows missed the target due to lack of strength.
The young servant who was waiting on the side picked up the arrow that fell to the ground, and Qin Huaisu stood still.
【elder brother! Do you want me to help you? ! Don’t miss this great opportunity? With me in custody, you can walk through every step and hit every shot! 】886 jumped out and seized the opportunity to trick Qin Huaisu into binding him.
Qin Huaisu turned a deaf ear, pulled the bow to the maximum, his sleeves were blown against his arms by the wind, his muscles were clearly defined. At this moment, the wind on the river was much stronger, rustling Qin Huaisu’s robe, but he remained motionless, aiming at the green leaves and the bull’s-eye and shooting arrows.
The wind was torn apart, and the green leaf was driven down by force, and the arrow that was nailed to the tip of the arrow and then split Shen Dong directly stopped firmly in the middle of the bull’s-eye.
Everyone present was stunned for a moment, Chun Ying stepped forward to look at it with a steady mind, swept away the regret in her heart, and smiled on her face: “Congratulations to the lord for winning the two rounds.” Then she personally brought the lantern and handed it to Qin Huaisu with both hands .
