Chapter 1474 One Win
On the night of the Lantern Festival, the capital city is brightly lit, and the streets are full of lanterns. Passers-by have a lantern in their hands, some bought it, and some made it themselves.
Zhulan bought it, a lantern made of glass, while Zhou Shuren bought a lantern made of paper, in the style of a lotus flower.
Zhulan muttered softly, "It's a pity that I don't have a camera. Today's beautiful scenery is more beautiful than what I saw on TV."
Zhou Shuren walked very slowly, he was wearing too much clothes, and led his wife to avoid pedestrians, "You can draw it."
"The project is too big."
"Draw slowly and don't rush."
Zhulan moved, "Okay, then I will draw slowly."
There are too many pedestrians on the street, and they are not affected by the cold at all. Not only are there lanterns everywhere on the street, but there are also a lot of snacks. The most popular are several glutinous rice ball stalls. The glutinous rice balls of various colors are very appetizing.
Zhulan, "Shall we go to the lantern riddle competition?"
"Okay, you pull me a little bit, don't be hit by someone."
Zhulan was wearing leather gloves, tightly clutching Shuren's cloak, "I will hold on tightly."
Zhou Shuren regretted that if it weren't for people everywhere, it would be so comfortable for him to hold his wife's hand. Even though he thought so, he felt good now, and the little old man was in a very good mood.
The place where the lantern riddles guessing competition was held was the most crowded. Zhou Shuren had booked a box early. They were getting old and would not be able to squeeze in the front.
There were a lot of people outside the restaurant, and when the two got into the box, Zhulan sighed, "This journey is really not easy."
There are people everywhere, and it is difficult to move an inch.
Zhou Shuren broke out in sweat, "Yes, there are too many people."
From time to time, there was a sound of hello from outside, Zhulan signaled Qingxue to open the window, took the telescope in Qingxue's hand, um, I could see it clearly, "Huh."
The Zhou family has several telescopes, one was bought by Shuren, and the rest was brought back by Changyi from abroad.
Zhou Shuren, "Let me see."
Zhulan handed over the telescope, "Take a look."
Zhou Shuren took it over to have a look, and raised his brows, "Minghui and Wen Xiao from the third room of the Wen family guessed lantern riddles, and bet on the jade pendant."
Zhu Lan didn't see this, "I saw Liu Yuanbo and Wen Rong, didn't you see it?"
Zhou Shuren searched around, "Hey, Liu Yuanbo is pretty good, there are quite a few people who support him, it can be seen that he is comparable to Wen Rong Qihu."
Zhulan was anxious, "Let me see."
Zhou Shuren handed it over, "A few children went out early, and they were all in front."
The lantern riddles guessing competition venue has a large venue and many small venues that are separated. As soon as the Zhou family and the Wen family met, the two families matched each other.
Shangguan Liu bumped into Ming Rui, "Aren't you worried about your future brother-in-law?"
Mingrui hugged the stove, "This is lantern riddles, not knowledge, so there's nothing to worry about."
If it was an imperial examination, he would be worried, but not now, Liu Yuanbo is a pick, and his knowledge is also good.
Shangguan Liu whispered, "I saw your father and mother."
Mingrui followed his gaze and saw that his parents had squeezed to the front at some point and were looking at the situation here.
Liu Yuanbo didn't know that his father-in-law looked at him in the future, and he was full of thoughts that he couldn't lose. This was not a matter of face, but a matter of money, and money was a big deal. His jade pendant was handed down from the Liu family and was worth a thousand taels , Losing will feel bad for him.
Not only can he not lose, but he has to win. Wen Rong's jade pendant is also good, and the jade pendant worn by the champion can be exchanged for a lot of silver.
The situation on Minghui's side was one-sided. Minghui was a thoughtful person, and all kinds of weird problems emerged one after another, so he just didn't want to show it off in the academy.
Minghui smiled, "Wen Xiao, don't just stare at my little uncle in the future, I will teach you a lesson today, you will suffer if you underestimate anyone."
Sweat broke out on Wen Xiao's forehead, and he lost. There were ten questions in total. Minghui had already guessed all the questions he asked, but Minghui failed to answer four questions.
The competition between these two sides attracted a lot of people, and whoever lost would be ashamed.
At this time, Yudie cheered, Liu Yuanbo grinned and looked at Yudie, he won by luck, his ears turned red again, the last one was given to him by Yudie during the Chinese New Year,
This jade pendant was won by the two of them together.
Yu Yi was very surprised, I really didn't expect it.
Wen Rong smiled, "Young Master Liu is a great talent."
Liu Yuanbo replied, "It's just a fluke, Mr. Wen is a great talent, and I learned a lot today."
Wen Rong nodded, and left with the Wen family children.
Liu Yuanbo walked towards Yudie with the jade pendant, but Ming Rui stepped forward to block it, "Let me see the jade pendant you won."
Liu Yuanbo, "..."
Uncle, what's so annoying, can't we wait for him to show off?
At this time, the crowd burst into applause, and everyone's eyes were attracted by the stage. Unknowingly, there were only three people left to compete on the stage.
Yu Yi's eyes were good, "The one on the top is Mr. Yu?"
Mingrui, "He actually stayed."
Shangguan Liu smiled, "The three people above seem to be two adults with a child. Is this young master in his teens?"
Mingrui, "It's fifteen, no, it's sixteen years old."
Shangguan Liu, "...are you kidding me?"
"No. "
In the restaurant, Zhulan was happy when she saw the result, but in a blink of an eye Zhulan was unhappy again.
Zhou Shuren asked, "What's wrong?"
"I saw the little prince of the grassland tribe."
Years later, the little prince also visited, and she had seen him too.
Zhou Shuren squinted his eyes, took a look through the binoculars and got angry, what does the little prince of the Russian Georgia Department mean?
Yudie and Yuyi sisters were already standing behind Mingrui, while Mingrui and Liu Yuanbo stood in front.
The little prince from the Russian Ministry of Georgia smiled, "Xiao Wang has no other intentions, just seeing him."
Changyi came over, "The little prince is in the mood to watch the lantern, it can be seen that the prince is recovering."
The little prince's words were interrupted, and his heart was full of displeasure. In the past, he killed several elder brothers and finally became the heir. However, after entering Beijing, no one in the capital's aristocratic family looked down on him, so he had the name of little prince. .
The little prince held back his anger and said with a smile, "Master Zhou is also coming to enjoy the lantern?"
"Yes, there is nothing important at the beginning of the year, and it is rare to have a chance to relax. I see that the young prince looks good, and it can be seen that the prince is in good health."
The little prince laughed dryly, "It's rare for me to see the Lantern Festival in the capital, so I come out to enjoy the lanterns. Father's body has not recovered, and he still needs a good rest."
Changyi smiled, "Really? I thought I could enter the capital without any serious problems. The emperor even asked the Ministry of Rites to ask the officials of the Ministry of Rites to pay more attention to the princes."
How could the young prince have any thoughts on the girl of the Zhou family at this time, Mr. Zhou never said a word away from his father, took a deep breath, "Xiao Wang has something else to do, so I will take my leave first."
Changyi, "The matter of the little prince is important. By the way, I will definitely report to Lord Shangshu tomorrow so that I can ask the head of the Supreme Hospital to show the prince. Being sick all the time is not a problem."
