Chapter 126 The King's Husband Is Not Her Husband

"As, whatever you want..."

Facing Feng Nanxiao's gentle eyes dripping water, Jin Chen looked away uncomfortably.

He seemed to be reluctant to accept this title, but he was overjoyed by Feng Nanxiao's words.

"Then let's just say that, from now on, I'll call you Achen."

Feng Nanxiao saw through his awkwardness at a glance.

"Ah Chen."

He called out and looked at Jin Chen with burning eyes.

"……Um."

Jin Chen responded inaudibly, seeing that Feng Nanxiao was still looking at him helplessly, he bit his lower lip with his white teeth, and then opened his mouth with some difficulty.

"Nan, Nanxiao."

"Well, I'm here."

Feng Nanxiao's voice was drawn out, and the corners of her eyes and brows were full of smiles.

"Let's go."

Jin Chen tugged at her sleeve, his tone slightly tense. Obviously, if Feng Nanxiao continued like this, he might become angry from embarrassment.

"Let's go."

Feng Nanxiao held him back and walked towards a crowded place in the lantern festival.

"I remember seeing a lantern riddle guessing activity on the way here just now, is Dust going to try it?"

"Guessing lantern riddles? Then I'm good at it. Just tell me which lantern you like, and I'll definitely win it back for you."

Jin Chen's attention was attracted by Feng Nanxiao's words, but he forgot to care about the two holding hands.

Feng Nanxiao's memory is very good, the place she took Jin Chen to was indeed a stall where they were playing lantern riddles.

A variety of exquisitely crafted lanterns are carefully hung on bamboo frames, and a long, thin strip of paper hangs below each lantern, with different riddles written in lines on each strip.

According to the shape and craftsmanship of the lantern, the difficulty of the riddles is also different. The same thing is, as long as someone can guess the riddle on the note, they can get the corresponding lantern—of course, if you really like one of them If you want to buy a lantern, but you can't guess the puzzle under the lantern, you also choose to buy it with silver taels.

When Jin Chen and Feng Nanxiao entered the encirclement, a scholar-like woman was solving a riddle.

What she challenged was a vivid revolving lantern with a mythical story from ancient times drawn on the front. The artist's painting skills are so exquisite that this lantern has become one of the few lights that have attracted much attention at the stall.

In contrast, the riddle under this lamp is not so easy to guess.

Jin Chen looked up at the riddle on the note: a crescent moon hanging from the west building (type one word).

"This mystery is so interesting."

Someone nearby was whispering.

"Type one character in one or seven characters. These seven characters and sentences are elegant in style and charming in rhyme. When you read it, you have a sense of desolation,"

"That's right, this mystery is extremely simple and elegant, but it's hard to guess because of it. I just don't know if Miss Chen can figure it out."

"I see Xuan."

Indeed, Ms. Chen has been entangled in this riddle for a cup of tea. She also made a few guesses during the period, but she didn't come up with the correct answer.

Jin Chen didn't care if that Miss Chen was thinking hard or not, and he didn't mean to come first, first come first. He only knew that he also liked the revolving lantern, so he teased Feng Nanxiao and motioned her to guess the lantern riddles with him.

Coincidentally, Feng Nanxiao didn't have any thoughts of courtesy in her mind. After realizing that Jin Chen liked it, she fell into deep thought looking at the mysterious face.

A crescent moon hanging on the west building, seven words and one character, this method of guessing crossword puzzles is mainly dismantling and association.The riddle mentioned the two things "new moon" and "west building", so for the time being, the poem was divided into two parts: "a crescent moon" and "hanging west building".

The crescent moon, also known as the Emei moon, refers to the crescent moon that gradually appears at the beginning of each month in the lunar calendar. The four characters "one hook crescent moon" obviously cannot be disassembled. You can only use associations there. The similarities in the shape of the crescent moon Buckle '丿'.And because the new moon is like an eyebrow, the "丿" is changed from vertical to horizontal, and it becomes a character like "one".

If the west building is associated, it is easy to think of the man's residence, or the feeling of lovesickness and sorrow, which is not in line with the purpose of typing "characters", so it is used instead of dismantling, and a "wood" can be deducted from the orientation of the font structure. The word means "wood" in the west of "building".

Combining the two before and after, a common word gradually emerged in Feng Nanxiao's mind.

"Nan Xiao, have you figured it out yet?"

Just when Feng Nanxiao was about to give the answer, Jin Chen poked her waist calmly and asked nervously.

"...Well, I figured it out."

Feng Nanxiao's waist is the most sensitive || part, and Jin Chen's slender finger poked it lightly, and her voice immediately became a little hoarse.

"Huh? I haven't figured it out yet."

Jin Chen curled his lips a little unwillingly, but seeing that Miss Chen seemed about to speak again, he immediately put that unwillingness behind him.

"Nan Xiao, tell me quickly, don't be preempted by her."

"it is good."

Feng Nanxiao nodded, just as she was about to speak, Miss Chen had already spoken.

"It's the word 'gui' for sweet-scented osmanthus."

"Gui?"

The vendor repeated the word and looked at Miss Chen curiously.

"How did the girl think of this word?"

"Look, this hook crescent, the new moon is the tooth of the first month, the shape is raised upwards, plus a word 'one' and a hook, doesn't it become a '扌'? And this '扌' is exactly The radical of hanging, if you remove it from the word hanging, it becomes a "Gui". And the word "Xilou" takes the west as the orientation and the left of "lou" as "wood". The combination of the two is the sweet-scented osmanthus?"

Seeing that the vendor didn't deny what she meant, Ms. Chen explained confidently.

Some of the onlookers suddenly realized what they heard, while others frowned and didn't know what they were thinking.

After Ms. Chen finished explaining, she looked at the vendor with confidence.

"Well, the answer to the riddle is this word?"

"The girl's explanation can be said to be very exciting."

The vendor didn't answer directly, but praised her first, with an inscrutable smile on his lips.

"It's a pity that the girl only got half of the answer to the riddle."

"half?"

Ms. Chen was stunned when she heard the words, and everyone around her was also stunned.

"What does it mean to guess half of it? Isn't there only one word for the answer? Why is there still a half answer?"

"I don't really know, this half, does it mean that some of Miss Chen's answers are correct?"

"That's hard to guess. Who knows whether the half of the vendor's mouth says the word 'wood' or the word 'gui'. If the direction is wrong at the beginning, it will be even more accurate later on."

"This lantern riddle is really difficult to guess. Ms. Chen has tried at least four words, but she still hasn't guessed the final correct answer. I don't know whose hands this lantern will end up in."

People around whispered to each other, while Jin Chen pulled and poked Feng Nanxiao's waist again.

When that Ms. Chen spoke just now, his heart thumped, and when Ms. Chen finished explaining, Jin Chen's heart almost rose to his throat—no one else, it was because Ms. Chen's explanation sounded too much. The logic was rigorous, and he didn't come up with the correct answer himself, so for a moment he felt that what Miss Chen said was very reasonable.

Later, when the vendor said that Ms. Chen made a mistake, Jin Chen's mood could be described as 'relieved', but then he became nervous again, because the mystery was too difficult, and Jin Chen was not sure Feng Nanxiao could solve it. Can't be right.

"Nan Xiao."

He leaned closer and whispered to Feng Nanxiao's ear.

"Is the answer you just came up with the same as Miss Chen's?"

"No."

Feng Nanxiao tilted her head uncomfortably, and the heat from Jin Chen's speech sprinkled on her ears, making her auricles red.

"But half of my analysis is the same as hers."

"Half."

Jin Chen suddenly became excited.

"The vendor also said that Miss Chen's analysis was half right. If the half you agree with her happens to be the half she said is right, then your probability of guessing the right answer will be much higher."

"Yeah, I thought so too."

Feng Nanxiao smiled softly, went through her guess again in her heart, and after repeatedly confirming that it was correct, she took a half step forward, ready to speak.

At this moment, Jin Chen raised his hand to cover her lips.

"Don't, don't, don't say it yet, you didn't see that Miss Chen hasn't finished speaking yet, let's wait a little longer."

Soft as if boneless hands covered the lips, a burst of fragrance came from the bottom of the nose, making Feng Nanxiao's heart | spirit | swaying |.

She raised her hand and pulled Jin Chen's hand down to hold it, rubbed it a few times with controlled strength, and then spoke with a smile.

"Are you sure, Ah Chen? Since Ms. Chen has already guessed half of it right, the chances of her guessing right next time are much greater. If she is allowed to guess the correct answer now, what should I do? "

"This this……"

When she said this, Jin Chen became hesitant again, his eyes kept wandering between Miss Chen, Revolving Horse Lantern and Feng Nanxiao, obviously lost his mind for a moment.

"Nan Xiao, how sure are you about your answer?"

After struggling for a few seconds, Jin Chen asked.

"Well... It was only [-]% in the past, but if I talk about it now, I'm [-]% sure."

Feng Nanxiao thought about it seriously, and said cautiously.

"Eighty percent."

Jin Chen frowned.

Of course, [-]% certainty cannot be considered low, but in Jin Chen's view, it is not very high. If conditions permit, he naturally hopes that Feng Nanxiao can guess the riddle with at least [-]% certainty.

But what Feng Nanxiao said is right. If that Miss Chen is allowed to continue to guess the riddle, the possibility of her guessing the correct answer next time is too great. Jin Chen really likes the revolving lantern, so he doesn't want to take the risk. risk.

Thinking of this, Jin Chen gritted his teeth and decided to trust Feng Nanxiao once.

"Okay then, you go and tell the vendor your answer, but if you're wrong, I'll ignore you tonight."

It didn't make sense at all, but the smile in Feng Nanxiao's eyes didn't dissipate at all. She raised her hand to stroke Jin Chen's hair, said "don't worry", then walked to the vendor, softly Say what you think of the answer.

A trace of surprise crossed the vendor's face when he heard the words, and after confirming with Feng Nanxiao in a low voice, he spoke loudly.

"Congratulations to the girl who guessed the answer first, girl, this revolving lantern is now yours."
