When the time came, Xi Yutong wanted to drag Feng Yuyi over, but he didn't expect that the first question would be sent directly to the box.

Xiaoer, who delivered the riddles, stood aside and explained: "The guests in the private room don't need to go down for the first three rounds. You write the answers and hand them over to me. If they are correct, someone will send the second round of lantern riddles over later."

Xi Yutong couldn't be happier to be crowded with the others, so she nodded, took the lantern riddle, and handed it to Feng Yuyi without even looking at it.

Feng Yuyi glanced at her, then lowered his head resignedly.

It is said to be one round, but there are three lantern riddles written on this paper, all of which are to guess one word.The first lantern riddle is "Don't worry about fireworks", the second is "circle when drawing, square when writing, warm if there is it, cool without it." The third is "One thousand is not enough on the left, and more than ten thousand on the right. "

Feng Yuyi glanced at it and knew the answer, took the pen and paper, wrote down the three characters "En", "日", and "做", and then folded them up and handed them to Xiao Er.

Xiao Er didn't expect to solve it so quickly, and after seeing that the answer was sure, his expression became more respectful, "Please wait a moment, two gentlemen, someone will bring the second round of lantern riddles after about a cup of tea. "

"Excuse me." Xi Yutong sent Xiaoer away, and then couldn't help asking, "You played this lantern riddle before? Why is it so fast?"

Feng Yuyi couldn't help but laugh: "The so-called lantern riddles are nothing more than splitting and adding characters, or guessing characters based on shapes and objects."

Xi Yutong knew it was such a game, but she couldn't turn it around. Seeing that Feng Yuyi had plans to teach, she quickly stopped the topic, "You must be tired of thinking about these lantern riddles, so let me rub your shoulders for you." .”

Feng Yuyi didn't feel tired, but he would not refuse Xi Yutong's approach, he nodded immediately, and sat down on a chair beside him.

Xi Yutong rubbed his shoulders and beat his back symbolically, and found an excuse to play with lanterns after a while.

The time for a cup of tea passed, and the previous Xiaoer went back and forth. The only difference was that the lantern riddles on the paper were changed to three.

After Feng Yuyi glanced again and gave the riddle, Xiao Er asked, "Master Xi, has he obtained his fame?"

Before Feng Yuyi said anything, Xi Yutong asked suspiciously: "You still care about this?"

"No." Xiao Er smiled and explained to the two of them.

It turned out that the restaurant had also held two lantern festivals before, and sometimes offered help to talented scholars with real materials, so as to make a friendship, the restaurant would not do any harm if the talented scholars became famous in the future.

Feng Yuyi solved the riddle so fast, Xiao Er naturally reported it, so someone ordered Xiao Er to recruit Feng Yuyi.

Knowing the cause and effect, Xi Yutong wanted to laugh a little, but seeing Feng Yuyi's glance over, light but extremely stressed, he couldn't help but suppress his smile.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I have no such intention." After Feng Yuyi finished speaking, he pulled Xi Yutong back to sit.

Although it was a pity, these things were reluctant to happen, so Xiao Er didn't say much, nodded with a smile and left with the answer.

Xi Yutong glanced at the calm face of the person opposite, and thought gloatingly, "If they know that you are the Prince Yi of the court, they must regret it. Recruiting a talented person who has achieved fame is not as good as recruiting you. A powerful prince?"

Feng Yuyi: "If you don't tell them, they won't know."

Xi Yutong looked up at the sky, "If it's possible, I really want them to know—" Before he finished speaking, someone flicked the center of his eyebrows, neither serious nor serious.

Feng Yuyi withdrew his hand: "Then don't even think about getting out of bed tomorrow."

Xi Yutong said "Ah", and after realizing it, her face turned red and she didn't dare to speak anymore.

The answers to the second round of lantern riddles were handed in, and after another cup of tea, Xiaoer came back with the third round of lantern riddles.

Naturally, Feng Yuyi had no problem, he just took a look and wrote down the answer.

After the third round of lantern riddles, Feng Yuyi, who had to continue the competition, could no longer stay in the box, and Xiao Er led him down.

Before her, there were already a dozen or 20 people waiting on the stage, including Feng Yuyi, there were exactly 20 people.As for Xi Yutong, he naturally stayed in the private room, with the window open just enough to see the situation below.

The previously crowded hall has now become very spacious, especially the area around the arena, which has been completely emptied, and red lanterns have been hung one by one, five in a row and four in a row.

After confirming that all the people who passed the three rounds of assessment were here, someone stepped forward from the side stage.It was a middle-aged man with a round figure, like a smiling Buddha, with a bright smile on his face, "Thank you all talented people for participating in the Lantern Riddles Conference held by our Shuangyi Restaurant. I am the shopkeeper of Shuangyi Restaurant .The content of our next game will still be guessing lantern riddles, but the rules will be changed.”

"Everyone, please look at the lanterns around here." Shopkeeper Zhang pointed to the lanterns around, "There are [-] lantern riddles here, and only some of them have riddles. You need to find out and answer them one by one. The time limit is half an hour. At that time, we will divide the rankings according to the time and accuracy of everyone's submission of answers."

After speaking, let the waiters distribute brushes and blank paper to everyone.

Xi Yutong was located on the second floor, and those lanterns happened to face her sideways, so she didn't see the subject clearly, she could only see the crowd, and she could see Feng Yuyi among them at a glance.

Feng Yuyi is not tall, but she is indifferent, there seems to be a circle separating her from the people around her, so she stands out from the crowd.

Feng Yuyi probably noticed her gaze, raised his head, and looked straight at her.

Xi Yutong was not shy when she was caught peeking, she raised her hand and waved at the other party, then leaned against the window with her chin in her hands and continued to look at the other party.

After a while, shopkeeper Zhang announced the start of the competition, and Feng Yuyi didn't have time to look at Xi Yutong again, and began to search for puzzles with the others.

As the shopkeeper Zhang said, there are twenty lanterns here, some of which are just decorations, and only a small part have puzzles.The first lantern Feng Yuyi and the others saw was an ordinary lantern, and there was no riddle, so everyone had to move to other lanterns.

Glancing at the crowd, Feng Yuyi didn't follow, but instead went to another row of lanterns, and inquired in the opposite direction from the crowd, but he kept sizing up their reactions from the corner of his eye.

Xi Yutong was on the second floor, seeing Feng Yuyi walking over one by one without making a move in two rows, he couldn't help frowning.

Is there none?That Feng Yuyi's luck was too bad.

Looking at the people who browsed from the beginning, some people have already started to write, and some people stopped in front of a certain lantern and began to think about the answer.

At this moment, Xi Yutong wished she could go down to help, even if she couldn't answer it, at least she could help find which lantern had riddles, which would save Feng Yuyi some time.

But now, she can only trust Feng Yuyi.

Feng Yuyi didn't know Xi Yutong's worry, after seeing a dozen or so lanterns, he had met everyone who had been watching from the beginning.

I glanced down again, walked around very quickly, and finally went to the table not far away and started to write with my head down.After a while, a blank paper was handed over.

The person who received the answer was the person who registered earlier, and he still remembered Feng Yuyi's appearance, and he was a little unbelievable when he got the answer.If he remembered correctly, these lantern riddles were not easy, and even a little more difficult than last year. It was surprising that Feng Yuyi only took half a cup of tea.

But despite being surprised, he still accepted Feng Yuyi's sign according to the procedure, and then registered the ranking of Feng Yuyi's answers.

Xi Yutong never expected that Feng Yuyi would be the first to hand in the answer. When Feng Yuyi came up to the box, he couldn't help but pull him to sit on the chair, and asked, "Who are you?" How did you do it? Didn't you never see the riddle at the beginning? How can you answer it faster than the rest?"

"When did I say that I didn't see the riddle?" Feng Yuyi laughed.

Xi Yutong was puzzled: "Didn't you never—" She realized at this moment, "You saw the riddle earlier, but you didn't write the answer, but waited to write it together at the end?"

Feng Yuyi nodded, "If I stopped writing when I saw it, wouldn't it be a reminder where there is a riddle?"

Xi Yutong clapped his hands, "Sure enough, he is a cunning old man."

Feng Yuyi patted you on the head, "You old and cunning?"

Xi Yutong cleared her throat, shook her head quickly, and retorted very seriously, "You heard wrong, I clearly said that you are far-sighted and far-sighted."

Feng Yuyi glanced at her, not believing it.

Xi Yutong felt guilty, so she hurriedly changed the subject and asked, "How sure are you that you can answer correctly? Are you sure there will be no missing questions? Will you make typos?"

Asking questions one after another made Feng Yuyi very helpless, turned around and pulled the person to sit on his lap, "I'll have the answer in a while, why are you so nervous?"

"I'm not nervous." After Xi Yutong finished speaking, he noticed his unconsciously shaking legs from the corner of the eye, and quickly stretched out his hand to hold it down. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Feng Yuyi's eyes, and could only admit, "Well, I'm really a little nervous."

It's fine if it's an ordinary reward, but it's related to the copybook that Dad wanted to find, if she just missed it, she would feel very regretful.

Feng Yuyi also knew her mood, bowed his head and kissed the corner of her mouth, "Of course I won't be wrong, just relax."

With her reassurance, Xi Yutong's heart can be considered to be at peace.

Feng Yuyi raised his hand to smooth the small hills on her frown, and in order to divert her attention, he asked, "It's getting late, do you want some snacks?"

"It's already this hour, and you'll gain weight if you still eat." After Xi Yutong finished speaking, he added, "But of course I can't postpone your kind invitation." After speaking, he called out to the waiter.

The shop waiter who was waiting at the door opened the door and came in. When he saw the posture of the two of them, he was dumbfounded. It was Xi Yutong who cleared his throat to bring him back to his senses.

"What dim sum do you have in the restaurant?" Feng Yuyi said, "By the way, just come here for two signature dishes."

The shop waiter nodded and said that the two dishes were confirmed before leaving.

As a result, it took half an hour to come out, so Xi Yutong was not in a hurry and dragged him to the window.She wanted to look at the moonlight, but found that there were many people around the lantern riddle below.

Feng Yuyi saw it, and explained: "After the competition, these lantern riddles will be open to the public, and those who guess correctly will get rewards, but it's not as rich."

Xi Yutong tilted her head to her: "How did you know?" Before the other party could answer, she also realized, "It should be Zhang Zhang who told you, but why didn't I hear clearly just now, did I get distracted?"

Looking at the person talking to himself, Feng Yuyi smiled but remained silent.
