Celebration banquet.
It is placed in the largest square, decorated with lights and colorful decorations, making it extremely festive.
Hundreds of low tables were arranged in a circle, and the seats were full of people.
Chen Nian was sitting at the banquet, and Lu Ge and Tang Rou were also there. As for Zhao Yixue, he didn't want to give face to the princess.
In the center is a stage used for performances.
Beauties singing, dancing, and playing piano music were all going on in the center.
"Wow, I didn't expect to be lucky enough to enjoy such an antique program..."
"Yes, it's really beautiful."
In the second half of the dinner, an old man suddenly walked to the center and said loudly.
"Everyone!"
"According to past practice, we have to draw lots every month to select a girl to sacrifice to the mountain god."
"But now that the mountain god has been eliminated, we no longer need it! But the lottery ceremony can be changed to something else."
"In the box on the left are the names of the girls, and in the box on the right are the names of the men."
"I will draw lots later. If you are chosen, it will be your destiny!"
After the old man finished speaking, the guests immediately burst into deafening cheers.
Unexpectedly, the cruel lottery ceremony was changed into a game that promotes marriage, which is quite interesting.
Lu Ge and Tang Rou were also very excited. It was like watching a variety show, it was fun.
The old man first drew out a man's name.
"Yue Chao, please come to the middle."
"To ensure fairness, you will draw the girl's name yourself."
The man really put his hand into the box and pulled out a girl's name. Then the girl shyly stepped forward, and the two of them looked at each other and looked like they were getting along.
The audience also cheered loudly.
One pair after another, the atmosphere became more and more lively.
"Let me see who is next? It turns out to be our hero, Chen Nian!"
"Ah?"
Chen Nian was confused, didn't expect that he could also be drawn?
Upon hearing this name, the audience was ten times more excited than before!
"Up! Up! Up! Up!"
"Boss, just go ahead. It's hard to refuse such hospitality. In the worst case, just treat it as a joke." Lu Ge was also behind him.
Due to everyone's enthusiasm, Chen Nian had no choice but to walk to the middle.
"Put your hand into the box and pull out a piece of paper as you wish." The old man gave the instruction with a smile.
Chen Nian had no choice but to put his hand into the box, picked up a piece of paper and handed it to the old man.
The old man took the note with a smile on his face, "Let me see which lucky woman will be drawn by this hero?"
"Gu Qingyue! Oh my gosh, I didn't expect that the name written on it is the princess's name!"
Chen Nian:?
Turning around, I saw that the name written on the note was indeed Gu Qingyue's name!
Damn it, how could it be such a coincidence?
At this moment, Gu Qingyue was sitting at the wooden table directly above her, with a touching blush on her face, and she was so beautiful that she was so beautiful.
The crowd immediately became excited.
"Your Highness, Chen Nian has won the lottery, Your Highness? This is truly a well-matched pair!"
"Yes, Her Royal Highness the Princess has a kind heart and unparalleled beauty. She happens to be a beauty paired with a hero!"
"That's right, together! Together!"
"Prince-in-law! Prince-in-law! Prince-in-law!"
Tang Rou couldn't help but cover his mouth. "There are so many names in the carton, and the boss just happened to pick the princess. It's really..."
"I don't think it's that simple!" Lu Ge shook his head. "The princess's name should be written all over the carton."
"Ah? But those people also drew other names before." Tang Rou blinked in confusion.
"Haha, maybe they all have a note hidden in their sleeves. They are all here to act. The purpose is to trap the boss."
"That's it..."
Chen Nian also suddenly realized that he did not expect that one day he would also be tricked.
The princess is so scheming!
Now that everyone is mad at her, she can use the excuse of conforming to the people's sentiments to approach her openly.
Gu Qingyue stood up and walked over, her face bright and moving, and her bright eyes seemed to hold Stars in her mouth.
"Chen Nian, since everyone is so enthusiastic, let's cooperate..."
"Okay, listen to your drama princess." Chen Nian shrugged helplessly and had no choice but to obey.
The old man picked up two glasses of wine and said with a smile, "You two have gone through many hardships and are destined to be here. It's not easy to get to where you are today. How about having a glass of wine?"
"Here, hero man, take it."
"Your Highness, this is yours."
Gu Qingyue looked shy and timid, half-assed, and did not go directly to get the wine glass.
But just as she was pretending to be shy, a very fast sword shadow suddenly shot from behind, and actually lifted the wine glass directly into the air!
Chen Nian:!
Gu Qingyue:?!
Everyone:???!!
Guard: Who!!
In everyone's doubtful eyes, a beautiful figure flew out from the crowd behind, her skirt flying, and she lightly grabbed the flying sword.
The sword blade just caught the wine glass firmly!
What's even more amazing is that the spilled wine actually fell back into the glass intact.
This miraculous skill immediately caused the audience to exclaim loudly.
But what's even more amazing is the appearance of the girl who suddenly broke in!
The long dress is gorgeous, the facial features are as exquisite as heavenly workmanship, the eyebrows are picturesque, and there seems to be light shining in the starry eyes. In terms of beauty, she is not inferior to the princess at all!
"Who is she... She is dressed like us, I have never seen such a beautiful woman in the city!"
"Yes... it's so beautiful, even standing next to the princess is no less beautiful."
"If I could marry such a woman, I would wake up laughing in my dreams..." Some men even drooled.
Tang Rou and Lu Ge were stunned on the spot.
"Xiao, Xiao Qi..."
"I'll go, boss, this Shura field is inevitable!"
Chen Nian Unexpectedly, Su Jinyu came here wearing an ancient costume.
I have to say that she is indeed very beautiful. Her temperament and appearance are completely comparable to those of the princess. He was stunned for a moment.
The guards around him had already gathered around him.
"Who are you? How dare you barge into the celebration banquet!"
"Why don't you quickly put down your sword and surrender!"
Gu Qingyue also realized that this girl was not simple, so she immediately took two steps back and did not speak rashly.
"Who am I? Hehe... You have to ask your great hero."
Su Jinyu lightly took off the wine glass from the sword, swayed it in front of Chen Nian's eyes, and said with a smile, "Brother Chen Nian, didn't you want to drink a cup of wine? Why didn't you say anything?"
"Xiao Qi, this is all for fun, cough... don't take it seriously."
"Really, but it seems to me that Her Royal Highness the Princess may not be taking it as a joke."
People were talking a lot.
"Does this girl know the hero?"
"Haha, heroes are indeed suave, but what if such an outstanding man has three wives and four concubines?"
"Yes, only a hero can be worthy of such a fairy-like woman!"
At this time, Gu Qingyue finally couldn't help but speak.
"Chen Nian, who is she?"
