Although Chen Shouzhong had a smile on his face, Li Yi could see that this guy was still a little lost.

The selection between the women in the next place was not so competitive. Although all of the women here are literate and have read a few books, it is not possible to write a good couplet in three or five years, so there are few really good works.

The first place in the women's group was won by the princess Qingyuan, who was one head above everyone else, and her couplet "The auspicious wind rises on Baiyun Mountain, and the Rui Qi rises in Liuhua Lake", which fits the scene in front of her, and is neat and tidy, meaning auspicious and wishful, which is deeply appreciated by everyone, so it is recommended as the first place in the women's group.

The second place is the Prison family's spring water flooding is brilliant, and the east wind Shu Liuyun is affectionate. Although it is a little lacking in combat, it is also considered the best choice in this fat powder pile.

The third place is Shen Wanru's 'Spring and Autumn Day, the landscape has a clear sound', giving people a sense of freshness, although it is not enough to come out on top, but it is well deserved to get the third place.

And the most surprising thing for Li Yi is that Li Ji, who came with him today, her 'green mountains are far away, and the mangroves are sent late', have also won praise from everyone, I didn't expect her to be a mixed-race woman born in Persia, she can make such a fresh and timeless couplet, it is indeed impressive, although she failed to get the ranking in the end, but she is only seventeen years old, and it is difficult to say what she will achieve in the future.

Next, what everyone is looking forward to is the pot throwing game that most people here are good at. This pot throwing game can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and was all the rage in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, especially the official eunuch and doctor class.

The Tang Dynasty was even more enduring and the difficulty increased accordingly, such as blind casting and rear projection, which gradually became popular, and the common people were also tired of it.

It's just that for Li Yi, a descendant who has crossed over after a thousand years, without trying and training in this area, I am afraid it will be very difficult to achieve good results.

After everyone frolicked, Yuan Zitong stood up with a smile and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, please let Zitong tell me about the rules and reward subjects of the second game." Hehe! Although the prizes are not as generous as in the couplet competition, they are still in the past. Oh! Is this number one? Reward three coins of ambergris from Sumen. ”

When Li Yizheng was indifferent, he saw that his eyes were already shining, and he looked extremely expectant, which saved that the preciousness of ambergris is not comparable to ordinary calligraphy and painting and famous porcelain.

You must know that you have already known not long after you came that the price of one penny of ambergris is now more than 100 taels of silver, and these three coins are not more than 300 taels of silver! It's almost enough to catch up with more than half a year's worth of money.

The key is that this thing is rare and precious, and it is hard to find, and it would be good to have a few taels of ambergris in the palace. Those who pick incense, even if you wander on the sea for a year and a half, I am afraid that you will not see a shadow of ambergris, this is purely the creation of people.

Although Li Yi's pot throwing skills are not worth mentioning, but seeing that he is so tempting, he has to fight for her, relying on the accuracy of throwing darts back then, there must be a certain chance, and the others can only be resigned to fate.

Yuan Zitong continued: "The second place will be rewarded with one or two dipterocarp, and the third place will be rewarded with a string of real wax agarwood bracelets. Of course, we are still divided into men's and women's groups, each with the top three, and those with the same score will play an extra game until the winner is decided. ”

Lu Guangtu smiled from the side: "I look at these prizes, but we don't have that kind of blessing." The point is, we have always been unlucky in this regard, and we have never won an award. I look at that, and you, Lao Yuan, Brother Shouzhong and Runzhi are still a little sure. ”

Hearing this, Li Yi was slightly stunned, it turned out that this champion Li Yi was still a pot thrower, and his level must be far from him.

Lu Guangtu is still talking endlessly: "In my opinion, the laurels of this woman's group must be obtained by Mrs. Zhong again, and the other ladies have to work hard, we can't go back empty-handed every year!" ”

"That's right, Brother Yuan, the relationship between the two of us is not ordinary, or you will set up another encouragement award to win, like me, I push off all important matters every year, and use these safflowers as a foil for the green leaves, so I will also reward me with three or two points of ambergris, little brother, and I will be enough!"

Hearing this, everyone was already laughing, most of them were laughing forward and backwards, and some even laughed out of tears. I've never seen such a cheeky person!

Yuan Zitong shook his head with a smile and said, "I really convinced you!" Brother, when you say this, do you mean that I don't have a good relationship with other people, don't you let others poke me in the back? Don't make fun of your brother, okay? ”

Chen Shouzhong said with a smile: "Brother Guangtu, don't be discouraged, I heard that the rules of the game have changed slightly this year, I'm afraid it's hard to say that you are the leader!" ”

Lu Guangtu was stunned: "How do you say this?" ”

Yuan Zitong said with a smile: "In previous years, we were all a game of pitching games, and Shouzhong and I felt that it was too boring, and the first few were all covered by a few of us, so what else is there to see?" So! This year, we set two rounds to decide the winner, the first game is still the bright-eyed eight arrows pitcher, the second game will increase some difficulty, change to blind throwing, the results of the two rounds are added, and the most shot is the champion of our pitching pot this year. ”

In this way, even those with high pitching skills may not be able to win, because there is both unpredictability and luck. It's hard to say that my brother will be able to reach the top this year! ”

Lu Guangtu said happily: "So, I have a lot of hope this year!" Ha ha! Little brother, I always feel that this year is lucky, a few days ago I threw a paper ball, and it accurately hit the flower pot more than a foot away, you say, am I still wrong? ”

Yuan Zitong smiled bitterly: "I think the luck of Brother Guangtu this year must not be bad, then our game is about to start, first the Ming Tou competition, according to the ranking of the previous couplet competition, the first place to vote, in turn, I don't know what you think?" ”

Everyone applauded, knowing that it was difficult to adjust their state at the beginning, the psychological pressure must be greater than later, and the hit rate of throwing pots must not be high, so they all looked at Li Yi with gloating eyes, and they probably hoped that he would make a fool of himself!
