Chapter 118 Your Highness, who do you like among the three of us?
Shen Cangzhu and the others didn't know how to express it for a moment, but Lingzhou blurted out, "It's too exaggerated and flattering."
He didn't expect Lu Qiu to be so disgusting. He didn't even say a few words before.
Lu Qiu's submission involved some professional aspects, but he also talked about his previous experiences and talked about the Red Mansions experience without hesitation.
Then more emphasis was placed on Chu Xingchen's important use of him, and almost everyone later praised Chu Xingchen.
Chu Xingchen looked over dangerously, "You say it again?"
Ling Zhou: "...What he said is correct, but everyone may not be used to it. Do you need to polish it up?"
This was the first time they had seen such a straightforward compliment, so they thought it could be more tactful, but Chu Xingchen was used to it and liked it, because in modern times this is considered a basic thing.
"No, there's nothing I'm not used to. It's best just like this."
Shen Cangzhu reminded tactfully, "Some scholars may make jokes..."
"It doesn't matter, they will get used to it in the future." Chu Xingchen didn't care, "Believe me, this article will be very useful. Don't forget, my newspaper faces not only scholars, but also ordinary people."
What she wants is the hearts of the people of Chu, not just the hearts of a few scholars.
She wants scholars, so there are academic articles, but the common people cannot ignore them, they need such articles.
"I want to take advantage of the people's curiosity about the newspaper and strike while the iron is hot to attract them."
Articles like Lu Qiu's may make some people laugh, but they can regain people's hearts and let everyone know more about her. They can also indirectly improve everyone's cohesion, tell everyone about the meritocracy of Chu, and slowly deepen everyone's patriotism. I am proud of myself as a native of Chu.
"It's okay for me to be laughed at for a while, as long as the people don't laugh at me, it'll be fine. I'm the queen of Chu and I need a good reputation."
When Chu Xingchen said these words, Shen Cangzhu and the others fell silent.
"Your Highness is transparent, but we are not as good as Your Highness." After a moment of silence, Xiao Wang said.
"Haha, no more. As long as you don't laugh at me, I'll be fine, but... people like to hear compliments, and no one likes to hear criticism, right?"
"That's right." Lingzhou suddenly said, "Your Highness, you are very powerful and... beautiful today."
Chu Xingchen was caught off guard, "Huh?"
"I'm praising you." Chu Xingchen liked hearing compliments, so Ling Zhou stopped holding back and praised her.
Lingzhou looked at Chu Xingchen and smiled, and when he was feeling proud, he heard Xiao Wang next to him say, "Your Highness Hui Zhilanxin."
Chu Xingchen laughed even harder, "Haha, you... you are too..."
Lingzhou looked over in disbelief, feeling inexplicably that he had lost.
"I can do the same. Your Majesty's country is beautiful and fragrant!"
"Your Highness is a virtuous and virtuous person." Xiao Wang answered immediately.
Chu Xingchen interjected, "Should we start to praise the group? Yes, today is a good day, let's celebrate together, eat and play games and start to praise the group."
Just celebrate. In order to make the Kua Kua group more interesting, Chu Xingchen also thought of an old game - the command game.
"We are all soldiers, and we must obey the orders given by the general, so whoever gets the general's order can designate others to do certain things. Our main purpose is to praise the group, so let's designate who to praise whom first."
Chu Xingchen wrote a number on the chopsticks and shook it ready, "Just smoke it. If you can't praise it or repeat it, you will be punished with... drinking."
At the beginning of the game, the smell of gunpowder was quite strong, and I didn’t want to lose. The words to praise Chu Xingchen were constantly updated, and Chu Xingchen also searched out all the words he knew.
When Chu Xingchen drew a general, he would assign them to compliment each other. Shen Cangzhu, Lingzhou and Xiao Wang would look at each other, smile and praise each other, or just drink directly, like Lingzhou.
"I can't find the words." His Highness used so many good words to praise them, and he didn't want to ask him to praise Shen Cangzhu and Xiao Wang again.
"If it doesn't work, let's change the way we play and change the game."
Chu Xingchen had seen some excessive instructions, such as pole dancing and two people kissing, etc. I won't do it here, but it's still fun.
"Okay." Lingzhou responded immediately.
When the game instructions changed, everyone wanted to draw, but luckily Chu Xingchen got it.
"No. 1 and No. 2, tie their feet together and go outside to get a handful of snow. Who is No. 1 and No. 2?"
"I'm number one." Xiao Wang raised his chopsticks.
"I am number two." After a pause, Shen Cangzhu said coldly.
Chu Xingchen and Ling Zhou excitedly tied their ankles together, "Be careful not to fall."
The two of them didn't fall, but their walking was very difficult. "You guys stand on your shoulders and step together."
With Chu Xingchen's instructions, they finally went outside and got the snow.
Originally it would have been better if only one person took it, but they both took it back together.
Shen Cangzhu just had a normal handful of snow in his hand. He showed it to Chu Xingchen and threw it away. Xiao Wangwang said, "Your Highness, stretch out your hand."
Chu Xingchen reached out his hand reflexively, and Shen Cangzhu frowned, "The snow is cold, don't..." He let His Highness touch it.
Before he could finish his words, he saw the little snowman Xiao Wang put in Chu Xingchen's hand.
Although it is very small, it is indeed a little snowman with small leaves on its head. It is simple but quite cute.
No wonder he stopped in the middle, it turned out to be picking leaves.
"It turned out to be a little snowman, so cute. Thank you Xiao Shaoqing."
"Your Highness, you're welcome. It's just that this snowman is very cold. Your Highness, don't continue to take it, otherwise your hands will get cold."
As soon as he said this, Chu Xingchen saw that Xiao Wang's hands were red from the cold, and said hurriedly, "I understand, go and warm yourself by the fire, don't get too cold, you have been frozen before."
Xiao Wang listened to her concern, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly, Shen Cangzhu's eyes were deep.
Chu Xingchen looked at the little snowman in his hand. He really liked it and couldn't bear to let it break like this. He thought about it and handed the snowman to Wan Dong, "You put it outside the window."
It won't melt outside the windows.
Xiao Wang's eyes moved after hearing this, and he hurried out, then came in with a similar little snowman, "A little snowman is too lonely, let another little snowman accompany it."
"good."
Late winter held two little snowmen in his hands. He carefully arranged the two little snowmen without seeing the expressions on Shen Cangzhu and Ling Zhou's faces.
The game continued, and Shen Cangzhu drew the general order. He glanced at the chopsticks in Chu Xingchen's hand, saw the scratches on the top, and remembered that he made them, and his eyes moved.
"I give General No. 1 the right to command. No. 1 can designate a person to carry her on her back for two laps."
He added, "I have given the power of command to No. 1, and No. 1 can also order me."
He had seen Xiao Wang carrying Chu Xingchen back before. Although her foot was injured, that scene and what Xiao Wang did tonight were still lingering in his mind.
Regardless of whether it is Xiao Wang or Ling Zhou, they now have a vague intention of competing with him.
And he still didn't know who Chu Xingchen had in mind. She was very kind to the three of them, but he couldn't tell who she had in mind.
He wanted to see through the game who among the three of them she really liked.
The person she chooses may be the person in her heart. He specifically emphasized that she can choose him, and she will choose him if she has her heart.
