Kaifeng Shuangmeiji

5 lantern viewing

The postman heard a hum from inside, pushed the door open and entered, and saw two people in the room, one standing in front of the window studying the pattern on the edge of the window, the other sitting at the table with his hands on his knees and his back straight, looking at him with a straight face. The postman wondered whether the delivery of noodles was wrong. Hearing the old man who was sitting say "put it down", he hurriedly put the two bowls of noodles on the table, respectfully backed out.

After the postman went out, Qin Qi who was in front of the window let out a big breath, feeling that it was just too dangerous.At this moment, Zhan Zhao also came behind her, Qin Qi turned her head and gave him a shy look, then couldn't hold back her smile, and the atmosphere immediately returned to the relaxed and happy atmosphere before.

At this time, there was a bustling noise from far outside, Qin Qi's eyes lit up:

"It's a flower viewing lantern!" He said and pushed open the window of the room.

The scenery outside the window is bright, the houses in the distance are layer upon layer, the streets are criss-cross, and the dots of lanterns are dotted between the houses and streets, decorating the whole Shouchun City as dazzling as the Milky Way in the sky, and Qin Qi's eyes are also printed with dots It was as if there was a bright river of lights in her eyes.

"Brother Zhan, shall we also go to appreciate the lanterns?" Qin Qi turned around and asked excitedly.

"Okay!" Zhan Zhao replied straightforwardly.

"I'll call my senior sister." Can't wait to turn around and go out to Gu Qing's room, Zhan Zhao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and followed.

Gu Qing was regretting his previous attitude towards Qin Qi in the room, and soon heard Qin Qi knocking on the door outside:

"Senior Sister? The lanterns are already lit outside, shall we go to admire the lanterns?"

Busily opening the door, seeing Qin Qi standing outside the door with a smile on his face, there was no look of grievance on his face, so Gu Qing felt relieved and nodded happily.

Seeing that Zhan Zhao was also waiting outside the door, he bowed his hands and said, "Master Zhan, excuse me!"

Zhan Zhao knew what she meant, and didn't care, he saluted back and said, "Miss Gu, you're welcome, let's go to the room first and use a hot mat."

Gu Qing nodded and went to the room together with Qin Qi, while Zhan Zhao waited downstairs, but after a while, the two came downstairs, and the three went to the lively place together.

Walking to the bustling part of the street, Qin Qi was immediately attracted by all kinds of lanterns, feeling dazzled and so strange.Walking along the way, there are various kinds of lanterns on both sides of the road, including silk lanterns, sun and moon lanterns, poetry lanterns, and horse riding lanterns. Holding Lu Qing's arm, I looked at the stalls one by one. When I arrived at the cross street, there was a lot of people. In addition to all kinds of lanterns, there were also many stalls for guessing lantern riddles. You only need five yuan to enter and guess. If you hit the puzzle on which lantern, you can take the lantern away.Qin Qi thought it was very interesting, dragged Gu Qing and Zhan Zhao to throw fifteen cents and entered the venue.Lantern riddles were easy and difficult, and the three of them seemed to find it interesting, whether it was for getting the lantern or just for fun.

"Brother Zhan, look at this, walk on top, sit on the bottom, hang in the middle, bury on both sides, type a word. What is it?" Qin Qi asked Zhan Zhao, pointing to a simple silk lantern.

Zhan Zhao looked at these lines of characters, and after thinking for a while, he guessed the answer: "It's earth characters!"

"That's right!" Qin Qi laughed.

At this time, Lu Qing saw all kinds of novelty lanterns, and Qin Qi was by his side, and his mood gradually improved.Seeing that the two of them had an interesting guess, they also chose a lantern and asked Qin Qi with a smile: "Xiao Qi, look at this, a crescent moon hangs on the west building, and also type a word, I can't think of it, what do you guess?"

This mystery is a bit difficult, and several of them thought about it for a long time. Qin Qi suddenly looked up and saw a bright and beautiful full moon in the sky. The willow eyebrows are elegant and moving, and suddenly blessed to the soul: "It's the word for He!"

Both Gu Qing and Zhan Zhao were puzzled, so they hurriedly asked her what to say, Qin Qi felt proud, and recited a poem: "Wu Yan goes up to the west building alone, the moon is like a hook. The lonely sycamore deep courtyard locks Qingqiu"

"Look, in the so-called west building, the 'wood' is on the west of the 'lou', and the new moon hangs on the 'wood' like a 'hook', isn't it just He?" Tilting her head and looking at the two of them, Qin Qi was very upset. proud.

After listening to Qin Qi's explanation, Zhan Zhao nodded and liked it very much: "Sure enough, the image is a good question!"

After walking a few stalls forward, he reached out and pulled Qin Qi over, pointing to a lantern riddle on a sun and moon lamp for Qin Qi to guess. Qin Qi looked over curiously, and saw that the riddle read: "Shu'er opened his eyes, The boy is sleeping, his conscience is a little lacking, and he is near the remnant rabbit at sunset."

Tilting his head and thinking for a long time, he guessed the answer to the riddle, and was about to blurt it out, when he suddenly saw Zhan Zhao looking at her with bright eyes and smiling, realizing that he wanted her to guess the riddle on purpose, Xing Xing rolled his eyes and snorted, He turned his head and left.

Gu Qing didn't understand, so he looked at Zhan Zhao questioningly, and Zhan Zhao's face turned red, pretending to be serious, and he didn't answer her, only went forward to chase Qin Qi.Lu Qing had no choice but to look at the riddle by himself, and when he guessed the answer, he would understand. Looking at Zhan Zhao's back in surprise, he thought that this Zhan Zhao was not only quick in action, but also very clever in flirting!

Walking along the way, there are some who can guess, and some that few people can't think of, and they don't care about it. It's just because of the situation. The man, one is the senior sister who loved and cared for her since she was a child, and she only felt very complete in her heart.

The Lantern Festival in Shouchun has to put lanterns all night long, and it is very lively. It’s just that the few people who fought fiercely the day before yesterday and took care of Bai Yutang all night, are a little tired now. The three of them went back to the post house.

"Miss Gu, now that the clues are broken, Zhan has no choice but to go back to Kaifeng Mansion to report to Master Bao, what is the girl's plan now?" At the door of the room, Zhan Zhao asked Gu Qing.

"Master Zhan, my junior sister really wants to go back to Kaifeng Mansion, and I was going to send her there. Besides, Sha Qianli, a thief, I'd feel uneasy if I don't catch him, so why don't I go to Kaifeng with you for a while, to discuss the future. .”

"It's so good. Miss Gu is very skilled in martial arts, and she is also Senior Sister Xiao Qi. With the help of a girl in this case, Kaifeng Mansion is like a tiger with wings added!" Zhan Zhao was overjoyed, and made an appointment for departure tomorrow to send Gu Qing and Qin off. Qi went back to the room, and he also went back to the room to rest.

Early the next morning, a few people packed up and set off for Kaifeng, but they arrived in six or seven days.

After entering the gate of the mansion, they packed up and settled down a bit, and went to Bao Zheng's study.

"My lord, Mr. Gongsun, I am ashamed that I failed to arrest Sha Qianli and Nine-Tailed Fox." Zhan Zhao clasped his hands and clenched his fists with shame on his face.

"Guard Zhan doesn't need to blame himself too much, he just blames those two thieves for being vicious and cunning, and he doesn't allow you to delay talking in that situation. I just wonder what happened to Righteous Scholar Bai now?"

After hearing Zhan Zhao's simple report, Bao Zheng felt regretful, but because he knew Zhan Zhao's abilities, if even he couldn't catch Sha Qianli, either it was because he had some abilities, or he was using a shady plot that would make him unworthy of the public. This trick made a man like Zhan Zhao who disdained it impossible to guard against, and blamed himself for this.

After hearing Zhan Zhao's reply that Bai Yutang was fine and he had gone to reconcile with his second brother, Bao Zheng felt relieved, and then told Zhan Zhao what he knew:

"Fortunately, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu have returned to the mansion a few days ago. According to what the two of them said, they found the four girls who disappeared earlier in the two famous Goulan in the west of Beijing. It can be said that they have gained something."

"Yes, Zhan Huwei, I heard that Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, and the others also met Han Yishi from Zhakong Island. I think the five sworn brothers who came to Zhakong Island are indeed like the rumors in Jianghu. !" Gongsun Ce has always admired the heroism of righteous men like Zhan Zhao, and now that Han Zhang Bai Yutang is helping him in this case, he admires him in his heart.

As soon as Gu Qing heard that Zhang Long and Zhao Hu had met Han Zhang, he thought that Bai Yutang must have joined them as well, and his second brother would take care of his brother after he was poisoned, so he was relieved.

Several people exchanged their clues again, and finally Bao Zheng said: "It seems that the eight girls who were reported missing in this case have been rescued except for the fourth lady from a family surnamed Zhou in Lu'an who has not been found. It can be regarded as an explanation. It’s just that Sha Qianli and Jiuweihu are still at large, but the clues have been broken, so we have to notify the county government at all levels to take precautions, and report it in time if there is any change.” Seeing that everyone nodded, they turned to Qin Qi said, "Is Miss Qin's injury healed?"

Seeing that Bao Zheng was taking care of everything and still remembering his previous internal injuries, Qin Qi was very moved, and hurriedly replied: "Thank you for your concern, my lord, my injuries are all healed, and now I don't feel chest tightness or shortness of breath anymore."

"Hahaha, very good, very good," Bao Zheng laughed heartily, "In this way, we can rest assured, especially Zhan Huwei blamed himself every day before, and now it is inevitable!"

Qin Qi blushed, and replied with a slight smile: "Brother Zhan really doesn't need to blame himself, I just acted on my heart back then."

Seeing Qin Qi's daughter's shyness, Gongsun Ce felt teased again, and asked, seemingly unintentionally, "I just wonder how you two met in the same place when you started off separately?"

When the two of them saw him ask about that chance encounter, it was nothing at all, because what happened after the coincidence was something they hadn't expected and couldn't help themselves. Thinking of this, they couldn't bear to feel ashamed, but they hadn't figured out how to speak , then listened to Gu Qing answering directly:

"Both of us are here to track Sha Qianli, so it's normal to encounter them, and it's really not surprising."

The two of Zhan and Qin were exhaling, very grateful for Gu Qing's righteous rescue, but Gongsun Ce was slightly disappointed, and was about to give up, but Gu Qing actually said something that made him very gratified, what she said was:

"Since the two of you have met, you have already made up your mind. Why don't you inform the master as soon as possible and let him come back to preside over the marriage!"

As soon as these words came out, even Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce looked at Zhan Zhao and Qin Qi in astonishment. Didn't they think that they had already made love?

But Zhan Qin and the others looked at Gu Qing in disbelief, and never thought that she would say it directly. If they knew that it would be better to explain it themselves, they could avoid being so straightforward.Seeing Zhan Zhao's tongue-tied expression, Gu Qing misunderstood, and hurriedly said:

"Could it be that you didn't want to inform Master? How can it be done? Could it be that you can't get married until you have a baby?!"

Little—little doll? ! !

This time, Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce were even more shocked and did not speak for a while. Zhan Zhao was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to place his hands and limbs. He finally restrained his urge to strangle Lu Qing to death. He gritted his teeth and replied, "Miss Gu." Don't worry, Zhan Zhao will never dare to do such things that violate the etiquette before getting married. Zhan Zhao has already asked Xiao Qi, and learned that her master is currently in Qiongzhou, and when the old man returns, Zhan Zhao will definitely come to propose marriage!"

"That's great! I'm relieved." Gu Qing didn't feel the gnashing of teeth in Zhan Zhao's words, and nodded in agreement.

Qin Qi was already blushing with embarrassment, afraid that she would say something shocking to the world, she hurriedly dragged her to the door, muttering as she walked: "My lord, I will take my senior sister back to the room to clean up!" Even Zhan Zhao didn't dare to look at him anymore, he dragged Gu Qing and ran away.Bao Zheng laughed boldly from behind:

"Guard Zhan, we are waiting to drink your wedding wine!"
