As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.
Jian Yu turned his head and looked at the place where he was speaking displeased: "Master Qu, you can't just talk without any proof."
Bai Yue was not happy either, but she didn't look at Mr. Qu and didn't say anything. Of course, in the current situation, it wasn't her turn to speak.
Bai Yue's eyes were on the women's banquet. The woman who was full of malice towards her might be hiding there. Although she tried her best to be patient on the face, her heart was turbulent and she just wanted to eat her alive.
It's a pity that this era is generally conservative, and in such a formal occasion. If it had been before, based on Bai Yue's estimation, as long as she pounced on Jian Yu and pinched Jian Yu's chin and took a bite, that person would definitely not be able to help but jump out.
Bai Yue sighed inwardly. Although the women's banquet was not far away, many women were wearing hats and veils. Their faces could not be seen, and their expressions were even more difficult to express.
Jian Yu was wronged, and he was obviously displeased and said: "The Jockey Club is organized by the concubine. It attracts everyone's attention. There are people guarding the records beside every bamboo tube in the forest. There are also other contestants. We have always met in the forest, and every move is
We are all watching, so how can we talk about cheating?"
Jian Yu was upright and well-founded.
The eunuch beside Mrs. Zhou quickly walked aside in a low voice, asked the dozens of young eunuchs standing nearby, and then came back.
"The Concubine." The eunuch said: "In the Longevity Forest, there are people recording beside each bamboo tube. After entering the forest, Mr. Jian and this lady did not commit any fouls during the whole process. After finding the bamboo tube, they either took it down directly, or directly
Leaving is no different."
Everyone actually believed this. After all, there were so many people and there was no way to fool them all.
If there were only a few people in the Wanshou Forest, there might still be bribery and cover-up, but if there were more than a hundred people in the Wanshou Forest, ranging from eunuchs to contestants, and they met randomly, cover-up and cover-up would be impossible.
Besides, this isn't a life-threatening matter, it's just a game. Even if I brought my fiancée and wanted to show off, it wouldn't be a big deal.
The person who just spoke was obviously still unconvinced. Although he couldn't make any sense, he still said: "Well, I don't believe it either. How can you have such luck?"
Concubine Zhou looked at the numerous bamboo tubes on the table, then looked at the record book, thought about it, and said: "Mo Yi, I believe in your character, and you will never cheat."
It’s not necessary.”
Jian Yu faced Concubine Zhou and lowered his head slightly.
Concubine Zhou added: "But what happened today is indeed strange. The Ai family is also very curious. How did you avoid the numbers accurately and only take the bamboo tubes with titles? I wonder if it may be able to solve the puzzle for the Ai family."
This problem is definitely unavoidable. In fact, it is not a big problem. The two of them have already made preparations.
"It's all because of Yue'er's thoughtfulness and meticulous observation." Jian Yu said with a smile: "It was her who discovered the difference between the two bamboo tubes. That gave us a choice."
As soon as this was said, everyone was in an uproar, and the people below stopped talking. The people standing next to them, who had two kinds of bamboo tubes in their hands, and the palace officials who recorded the points, all started to look at the bamboo tubes over and over.
But there really is no difference, because one hundred bamboo tubes are used every year and are not fixed. The questions are still numbers. They are randomly inserted every year. How can there be any difference?
The female officer took two bamboo tubes and put them in Zhou Taifei's hands. The imperial concubine looked at them over and over again and finally gave up: "You said these two bamboo tubes are different, but the Ai family really can't see the difference. Your name is Bai Yue," Mo Yi said.
You discovered this difference, come and tell it to the Ai family."
"Yes." Bai Yue took a step forward, but without talking about the difference first, he said: "My concubine, I have listened carefully to the rules. If I just rely on observation to distinguish, it is not a violation."
Concubine Zhou was very kind. She heard that Bai Yue was even more kind when she came to Beijing from other places, so she was afraid of scaring her.
"No foul." Princess Zhou smiled and said, "You didn't use any means, you just observed with your naked eyes. This is no foul."
Everyone has eyes. If others can see but you cannot, it is because you are not careful.
Bai Yue smiled slightly: "It snowed heavily in the imperial city a few days ago, and now the forest is still muddy and wet. When the girl took out the bamboo tube, she saw shoe marks left by trampling on the tree trunk. She guessed that it was left by the palace people hanging the bamboo tube.
.”
After all, there are few people flying around. Most people climb up to hang things on high branches.
Bai Yue said: "As for the shoe prints left behind, one has horizontal stripes and the other has diagonal stripes. Therefore, the folk girl guessed that they should be arranged by two teams of different people. When looking for bamboo tubes, just pay attention to this point
, you can try to avoid the diabolo tube."
It's really that simple to say it when you think about it.
For a moment, there was a roar on and off the stage. The contestants looked at me and I looked at you, and they couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
It was such a simple difference. No wonder Jian Yu and the others just walked around the hanging tree without even getting close, and then they took it or left.
At first glance, Mrs. Zhou was surprised. For so many years at the Jockey Club, the bamboo tubes had been hung in two teams, but no one expected that this turned out to be a flaw.
The eunuch next to Mrs. Zhou slapped her forehead and said, "Ah, the bamboo tube in question was hung by the old slave. The numbers are hung by Xiao Lizi and the others... The soles of the shoes we are wearing are indeed different."
The eldest eunuch said with a mournful face: "My dear, who would have thought of this?"
"It doesn't matter, no one would have thought of this." Concubine Zhou solved her doubts and couldn't help but admire Bai Yue more. She was also happy for Jian Yu. For the older generation, Jian Yu married Bai Yue, which was indeed wronged. Now Bai Yue is smarter.
A little, and Jian Yu would be less aggrieved.
Concubine Zhou put down the bamboo tube with satisfaction and announced the results.
There is no doubt that Jian Yu and Bai Yue are the well-deserved first place, but the second place is not Shen Ye and Qin Jiu. Qin Jiu rarely asks for things in his life. Although he does not dare to make trouble here, he still pouts.
Not happy.
Putting happiness and unhappiness on the surface, it can be seen that this girl has never suffered any grievances since she was a child. Bai Yue poked Jian Yu and asked him to see what the sachet looked like and whether he could customize one for her, or
Discuss with the second person and sell it to yourself.
The items for the second place and below are all ordered in advance, put on the tray, and delivered by the female officer.
Only the first place reward is unique.
Concubine Zhou said: "Bai Yue, over the years, the reward for first place has been a wish. You can make any wish. As long as it is not excessive, the Ai family will satisfy you."
Everyone fell silent and looked at Bai Yue, secretly expecting something in their hearts.
A girl from a small place has never seen much of the world, and I don't know if she will have any whims and make jokes.
But Jian Yu and Jian's father and mother were both very calm, and somehow believed that Bai Yue would never lose track even if he had seen little in the world.
