"Miss Ruoshuang, why are you here too? Aren't you going to participate in the martial arts competition?"
Zhao Chen was a little surprised to see Li Ruoshuang here.
The day before yesterday, Li Ruoshuang told herself that she would attend the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet tonight.
At this time, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet should not be over yet.
Why did she appear here?
"Oh, my father wrote to me and told me not to participate in any martial arts competition. When he comes back to Chang'an City, he personally asks His Majesty to allow me to command the Detachment of Women." Li Ruoshuang sighed and said slowly.
His expression seemed not as happy as Zhao Chen thought.
"General Li is coming back?" Zhao Chen asked casually.
Is the battle between Xindao Front and Tuyuhun coming to an end?
Otherwise, Li Jing would not have time to come back at this time!
"It's almost done. I think I'll be here in Chang'an City next year!" Li Ruoshuang nodded and glanced at Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu beside Zhao Chen.
"You two, today it's like that!" Li Ruoshuang said lightly.
"Hehe, sister... sister, we made a special trip with Zhao Chen today. Look at my brother, after a few breaths, I solved the first riddle. It's amazing!" Cheng Chumo was about to call Li Ruoshuang's sister-in-law, but after seeing Li Ruoshuang's bad gaze, he immediately changed his words.
However, it talked about the first riddle that Zhao Chen solved.
"Zhao Chen, you solved the first riddle in this row?" Li Ruoshuang's beautiful eyes flashed with surprise and looked at Zhao Chen.
"Hehe, how about it, are my brother particularly awesome?"
"I'll tell you, I solved it in just a few breaths, and the puzzle process is clearly explained." Qin Huaiyu said with a proud look on his face.
It seems that this first riddle was solved by him.
"This row of riddles is the most difficult. If I remember it well, no one has solved the first riddle in this row!"
"Zhao Chen, you are so awesome." Li Ruoshuang looked at Zhao Chen with bright eyes, his shocking expression beyond words.
"It just happened." Zhao Chen just smiled slightly.
The humble behavior made Li Ruoshuang feel that Zhao Chen was much more steady than Cheng Chumo and others.
"Young Master Zhao, why not try to solve these tricks again. If you are lucky, you might be able to take away the lantern worth hundreds of gold!" The old man saw that Zhao Chen and others were almost chatting, so he spoke.
He was also somewhat looking forward to how many riddles would be solved if Zhao Chen kept solving them.
Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu also looked at Zhao Chen with bright eyes.
If Zhao Chen really solved all the riddles, they would have the capital to go out to brag.
"Zhao Chen, it's okay anyway, why not continue?" Li Ruoshuang was also persuading Zhao Chen.
She was already extremely curious about Zhao Chen now.
In Li Ruoshuang's eyes, Zhao Chen was full of secrets, which made her unable to help but want to explore.
"Okay, I'm just out for fun, so let's take a look at the back." Zhao Chen said with a smile.
Each lantern has a riddle, and each lantern is more than two meters apart.
Everyone walked forward and walked to the second riddle.
Then I saw that it said "Don't stay close to the fireworks and feel at ease."
"Zhao Chen, how can I solve this mystery?" Li Ruoshuang looked at the riddle in front of her, pondered for a while, but couldn't think of it, so she looked at Zhao Chen.
Li Ruoshuang doesn't like Hongzhuang and loves armedness, and has no talent for guessing riddles.
This is even more true for Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu behind him.
After watching for a long time, I had to pull my hair out for them, so I came up with a reason.
"As for riddles, riddles are the best solution." Zhao Chen smiled faintly and said to the three of them.
The few of them pricked up their ears, waiting for Zhao Chen to say what he next.
"Pinching the head and tail and piece it together is the trick to guess riddles." Zhao Chen explained.
"Oh? I dare to ask Mr. Zhao, what does it mean to pinch the head and tail and piece it together?" The old man had been following several people before. When he heard Zhao Chen's words, he was full of curiosity and couldn't help but ask.
"The so-called pinching the head and removing the tail means eliminating the interfering part in the puzzle, such as not getting close to the fireworks, not getting close to the fireworks, not getting fire, not getting fire, not getting fire, what's left?"
"There is the reason left." Cheng Chumo hurriedly followed up.
Although I have never read any books, Cheng Chumo still knows ordinary words.
"That's right, it's the reason left. If you come together, you can feel at ease. Where can you put your heart?" Zhao Chen looked at the people around him and asked with a smile.
"Don't worry, keep your heart under the cause. Could it be that the answer to this riddle is a word of mercy?" Li Ruoshuang muttered a few words, and suddenly his beautiful eyes lit up and his expression was a little excited.
"Young Master is very capable. Such a difficult riddle was solved so easily by you."
"Yes, the answer to this second riddle is the word "honor!" The old man bowed to Zhao Chen and said slowly.
"The elder is so serious, so I just guess it casually." Zhao Chen helped the old man up and said with a smile.
Zhao Chen believed very much that being treated like this by an old man who was several times older than him would be able to make his life short.
"Hahaha, brother, you're so awesome. Just guess it right. We must take the lantern home today!" Cheng Chumo grabbed Zhao Chen's arm excitedly, and his proud laughter attracted the attention of other people who were guessing lantern riddles.
"What is the most difficult row of riddles that guess exactly? "
"It seems like this. The voice just now seemed to say, someone guessed it right!"
"That's the most difficult row of riddles. No one has ever guessed the first riddle before. How could anyone guess one in a row accurately?"
"When I came here just now, I saw a few young men who were dissatisfied with the twentieth crown. Could it be them?"
"Young man? How is that possible?"
The people of Chang'an City who heard Cheng Chumo's voice were talking in a low voice at this moment.
Someone even walked towards Zhao Chen and his row of lanterns.
...
"hiss--"
In the square outside the Tai Chi Hall, Wang Ji suddenly took a deep breath, and it was extremely loud in the quiet night.
"What's wrong with the elder? Why don't you recite this poem?" Li Shimin was worried that he would be ridiculed by Wang Ji.
Suddenly hearing Wang Ji's sound of gasping in cold air, Li Shimin was also stunned.
I immediately felt inexplicably happy, turned around and looked at Empress Changsun, and looked at her as well.
"Your Majesty, it's okay!" Queen Changsun said with a chuckling.
"Yes, it's okay!" Li Shimin nodded, and his eyes burst into strong confidence.
"Uncle Master, is something wrong?" Fang Xuanling stood up and walked towards Wang Ji.
After all, he was his uncle and came to help Prince Li Chengqian again.
After all, he was also a passerby with Fang Xuanling.
Fang Xuanling was a little worried, could something have happened?
"Uncle Master, Your Majesty asks you to recite...hiss--"
Before Fang Xuanling could finish his words, everyone heard a sound of gasping in the square, which was louder than Wang Ji.
Fang Xuanling's face was full of shock. People close to him could even see the corners of his mouth trembling slightly.
