"snort."
Ah Hao gave a soft snort, blushing as she ignored him.
Qi Yuan just chuckled foolishly.
Ever since their engagement was finalized, he had been trying to talk to Ah Hao.
But Ah Hao is even more careful to avoid suspicion than before.
Ignore him.
Fortunately, Qi Yuan possessed professional ethics, focusing on protecting His Majesty every day, and spending the rest of his time pondering.
Why is Ah Hao ignoring him?
"The master wants to watch the dragon boat training."
Ah Hao didn't actually not want to talk to him.
It's just shyness.
Now that His Majesty's safety is at stake, she has no choice but to speak.
"Okay, don't worry, I'll take care of it."
Ah Hao's face turned even redder.
The inland river here is wider than the moat of Beijing.
After several days of rain, the river level rose.
There are three boats on the river, long and narrow, only wide enough for two people to sit side by side.
Murong Yue counted; there were twenty-two people on the boat.
They were all men.
Wearing shorts and a top, holding a paddle in his hand, and with a headscarf of a different color wrapped around his head.
There are three teams.
At the bow of each boat stood a person wearing a headscarf, with a large drum in front of them.
Like Murong Yue, quite a few people braved the rain to watch the spectacle.
Thump thump thump—
"one two three--"
Thump thump thump—
"one two three--"
“Master, look, the master is in the red team.”
Ah-hao pointed to the dragon boat whose headbands were all red.
It's training time.
Each of the three boats had its own area, making it impossible to tell their speeds.
However, Murong Yue was very sensitive to speed, and shook her head after watching for a while.
"The host is going to lose."
"Master is really amazing, he can see that."
"That's right."
Qi Yuan stood behind them, listening to their conversation, a feeling of happiness welling up inside him.
Ah Hao sighed.
"That's a pity, the host family is quite nice."
"They said that the team that won first place this time will each be able to lease an extra three acres of fishponds."
