Chapter 70 Chi Jingxi Secretly Playing Favorites (2)They should have gathered together to discuss something, but Chi Jingxi randomly decided to bring two outsiders, which completely ruined the meeting. With the two of them around, these individuals could only chat and talk about trivial matters.Wen Yantong couldn't help but glance at Chi Jingxi. How ruthless, are these not your own people?Chi Jingxi smiled slightly at Chi Zhongjian's words but did not refute them.There were two people left on the table that she didn't know. Wen Yangtong vaguely remembered that among the people who had a close relationship with Cheng Yanchuan, there was a man named Du Yuan. He was the son of a previous top scorer in the palace examination. The Emperor had personally appointed his father as an assistant minister of the Central Secretariat [1].There was also a man named Jiang Musheng, courtesy name Xuwen. He was Cheng Yanchuan's childhood playmate. His father was the chief minister of the Department of State Affairs[2], sharing the power with the most senior ministers. He was the only high-ranking official among the civil servants who bore the same weight as Prime Minister Fu.If she guessed correctly, the remaining two should be these two. These were all Cheng Yanchuan's right-hand men.But it was useless because Cheng Yanchuan died early. He didn't even have a chance to participate in the subsequent war for the throne.According to the plot in the book, Cheng Xin will also die after the struggle for the throne begins. The remaining people will become Chi Jingxi's comrades in the future, and they will be killed one by one in the war.But at this moment, these unknowing people were all gathered at a table to talk and laugh. Wen Yantong, who knew everyone's ending, felt really strange.After a few people chatted for a while, Cheng Yanchuan saw that the atmosphere at the table was a little awkward, so he suggested playing a small game to lighten the atmosphere.Wen Yantong instinctively felt this was not going to be good. When a group of academic tyrants proposes to play a game, don't expect it to be a simple and fun game. At this time, the dim-witted should choose to quit wisely.So she immediately said, "I don't know how to play games. How about I just..."Cheng Yanchuan advised. "It's only a simple game! Since you are sitting at the table, wouldn't it be improper to not participate?""That's right. We hadnt even said what game would be yet, and you are already backing off." Du Yuan, who was sitting on the side, provoked her. "Youre someone brought by the Little Marquis, so you shouldnt lose the Little Marquis' face."Wen Yantong lamented in her heart. You don't understand at all. Chi Jingxi's face will definitely be lost if I take part in this game!She faced Chi Jingxi and whispered, "Little Marquis, will this game be very difficult?"Chi Jingxi turned to look at her. "What game isnt difficult for you?"As a typical modern youth, who was addicted to the internet, Wen Yantong replied, "I'm quite good at playing on words[3]."Chi Jingxi glanced at her and did not argue.Cheng Yanchuan poured a glass of wine and said with a smile, "Today, three people from Sixth Ding Hall are present, so let's play a simpler game. Lest words spread, and people scold us for bullying people."He lightly placed the wine glass on the table. "Ill describe something, and you have to guess it. The wine glass will move towards our right, and whoever holds it will describe the thing vaguely. If it's right, then move the glass to the next person. If it's wrong, then say out loud what you thought it was. Then, you have to drink up the glass of wine and continue to pass the glass."Wen Yantong was a little nervous. This didnt sound like a simple game at all!Cheng Yanchuan added, "You can't spill wine when passing the cup. Whoever spills it will have to drink it up and then fill it up again."Jiang Musheng grinned. "Sure. This game is good. It sounds interesting."Several academic tyrants seemed eager to try, but Wen Yantong was shivering with fear. She turned her head and glanced at Mu Yang. However, contrary to her expectations, Mu Yang did not seem perturbed and actually looked a little excited.Wen Yantong really wanted to shake his shoulders wildly. Aren't you worried? Aren't you from the very bottom-ranked lecture class too?!!Cheng Yanchuan started first and said, "As light as a feather, as heavy as Mount Tai." Then he gave the cup to Chi Zhongjian, who was sitting to his right.Wen Yantong looked visibly confused. Could it be that Cheng Yanchuan was talking about a psychological mentality?Death was the end of human life. So it could be heavier than Mount Tai, or as light as a goose feather??Chi Zhongjian took the cup and said with a smile, "With four in one, one in each four."Wait, wait, wait! What? Can you people speak human?!When the cup was passed to Du Yuan, he pondered for a moment before saying, "Sometimes visible, sometimes invisible."The more Wen Yantong listened, the more she believed it was a kind of psychological feeling, but she couldn't guess which.When the cup arrived at Chi Jingxi, he said, "First rain; mountain falls, both in heaven and earth[4]."As soon as these words came out, several people sighed. Chi Zhongjian lightly complained, "Xiao Xi, youre giving out too much information. It's too obvious."Wen Yantong: "???" That was obvious?At least a psychological mentality could be ruled out nowThe cup was handed over by Chi Jingxi, but Wen Yantong still had no idea. She suddenly reached out and pressed Chi Jingxi's wrist.Chi Jingxi looked at her.Wen Yantong said cheekily, "I didn't hear what you said just now.""First rain; mountain falls, both in heaven and earth." Chi Jingxi repeated it again slowly before handing the cup to her. "Take the cup."Everyone at the table was looking at her, so she could only reach out to pick up the wine glass. When she was about to touch it, Wen Yantong suddenly groaned and shouted, "My fingers! My fingers are cramping! I can't pick it up. You can pass it to Fu Zixian directly."

Top of the {} character is rain {}. The bottom half of {} is a tilted mountain {}, hence mountain falls.Both in heaven and earth () should mean how snow appears from sky and then falls to the ground; both have it.pure tl . com is the original tler / dont re-post
