Chapter 386: Radiant
"It's just a word. △,.” Xia Dan said coldly, looked at Li Xunduan beside him with both eyes, and smiled very satisfied.
Because not only did he not look at the words on Xue Xuan, but he also did not pay attention to her person, as if he was thinking about something.
Li Xunduan's heart was entangled, and there were thousands of thoughts in his head.
The emperor's anagram seems to be so difficult that only Xuefu dares to solve it.
Even if he also knows that the riddle is the word spring, but first, the name of the country to which the spring character belongs, "Han Spring", is not easy to put forward at will, and the second is that the emperor's name is "Spring".
He is the identity of his son, and this word clearly shows that something is wrong with him, so that he is restricted, and Xiao Tong, who is also a nephew, is also used, as if this anagram is saying that they are not allowed to answer.
I believe that some of the brains here have already guessed this implication at the moment when the mystery appeared.
So, why did the emperor let Xue Yu answer and praise her calligraphy?
Li Xun is thinking about it here, and the snow coat on that side is being praised by everyone.
"Miss Lin's handwriting can be written so well, it must be the result of years of hard work, right?"
"You're really hidden! ”
"Yes, calligraphy is the most patient, no wonder Miss Lin is moody, looking like a generous and dignified person. ”
"Where, everyone praises it. Xue Cao replied lightly.
seemed to know in his heart that the emperor, who was smiling slightly, deliberately made himself out of the limelight.
But what was the previous dilemma?
Your Majesty, since the riddle has been guessed, I wonder if we can go and admire the epiphany in the imperial garden, for I have just heard that the flowers have bloomed. It's a flash in the pan, but it's very rare!"
Zuo Lingling mentioned unhurriedly that Mrs. Zuo had already asked her to go back, although she couldn't stop everyone from praising Xue Jiao, at least she could not see it.
The emperor: "Okay, since it was Miss Lin who answered, this word is also worthy of everyone, I will reward her with a thousand taels of gold, and ......."
Speaking of this, the emperor suddenly summoned the eunuch and whispered a few words, and the eunuch left.
Then he brought two inkstones from the imperial study not far away, held them on a tray, and displayed them very carefully.
"Your Majesty, why did you take this out?" Zhao Guifei said strangely.
These are the emperor's two favorite inkstones, what are you doing here?
The emperor smiled faintly, his eyes showed composure, and there was no longer that unpredictable and unpredictable.
"Tonight is fate, for so many years, I have never seen a woman who can really read and write.
Xue Cao, you choose one of these two inkstones, it will be counted as a gift from me, and in the future, the women in the capital can also learn from you and practice good calligraphy!"
After he finished speaking, the ministers were a little surprised, why is the emperor so interested today?
Xue Luo was not very surprised, watching the eunuch send the two inkstones to her to choose, she still couldn't see the love on her face, and her calm appearance was impressive.
Honor and disgrace are not shocked, that's what you said, right?
She looked at the two inkstones carefully, just made a choice after a little observation, raised her head and replied: "Your Majesty, your hospitality is difficult to resist, that little girl will want this side!"
She pointed to a stone pure purple inkstone with a simple pattern carved into it.
The emperor smiled meaningfully and asked, "Why did you choose that piece, and the other piece is not to your liking?"
In fact, the emperor deliberately took these two pieces, one of which was the Qingzhou Venus stone inkstone, which he had just used in the morning, and the ink still left wet traces, and the snow coat could choose his favorite with this.
Naturally, she could do what she liked, and she was facing the emperor's appetite, but she chose another piece, which was incomprehensible.
"Back to the emperor, in fact, these two inkstones are produced in Qingzhou, and this one is the Qingzhou Venus stone inkstone.
She pointed to another inkstone with patterns all over it.
This Qingzhou Venus stone inkstone, graphite such as lacquer, warm and moist like jade, Venus is all over, the texture is not dry, the knock is sound, the astringency does not leave the pen, it is the top grade of the inkstone. ”
"That's right......" The emperor nodded, as if to continue listening to her.
Although the voice of the snow robe is not soft and glutinous, it is also crisp and pleasant, and the tone of the explanation, coupled with the beautiful and confident face, attracted everyone's attention, the men looked at her, and so did the young ladies.
Xiao Tong looked at the snow robe on the side and said calmly, feeling a little happy in his heart.
She shouldn't be the one who hides in the shadows and hides her edge, she should be the most dazzling woman, otherwise she won't live up to her talent and excellence.
"And the snow coat is chosen, is Qingzhou purple stone inkstone, its stone color is pure purple, the color is delicate and delicate, the ink is like a duan, more suitable for my pen, penmanship and writing strength.
That's why I chose it because I'm a pragmatic person and I chose it for myself. Nothing careless. ”
After she finished speaking, the emperor's eyes were already full of appreciation, and he laughed!
"With unique insights and without losing their own factors, indeed, the inkstone that can be suitable for their own writing should naturally be chosen first. ”
With a wave of his hand, someone wrapped the inkstone for the snow robe, and before it was over, the emperor turned around again and said:
"This is my favorite place to feast, near Honghu Lake, and there is the Imperial Garden in the distance, so I have never given this place a name.
But I've always wanted a chic name, so why don't you choose one?"
Let her name the territory in the palace?
Many people couldn't help but be shocked, Li Di, who is known as a talented woman, was about to pop out of her eyes, if she didn't want to do something as cheesy as guessing riddles!
The person who should be named now should be her! Not some stinky girl who studies inkstones!
Li Di looked at the palace maid pouring wine beside her, and suddenly became angry: "Get out!
Her small seizures did not draw everyone's attention to her, but gave some people the impression that they were jealous, and the gains outweighed the losses.
Xue Cao said slowly: "The emperor wants to name this place?"
It was also casual, and I looked around.
This is also a garden path at the junction of the Royal Garden and Honghu Lake, if there is anything special, I am afraid that it is the kind of spring color full of flowers and plants, and the change in the sight of the lake at a glance.
After walking through here, you can have an adaptation, so that you will not suddenly see a bottomless lake, which will cause people to be depressed and unhappy.
Seeing her thinking, everyone's appetite was aroused, and they began to watch her alone more and more naturally.
Xue Bao: "This is very simple, but Xue Bao hopes that if he does not get it well, the emperor will not laugh at it." ”
A step was placed first, and she looked very old-fashioned, and she didn't look like she was lacking in courage.
"It's nature. The emperor replied.
"This is a long jing, the entrance is overgrown with trees, and it is considered to be deep here. There are no green trees, but sparse flowers, and you can see the waves of Honghu Lake at a glance, and the sight is drawn up and into the distance, it is a darkness, everyone can see together. ”
Xue Cao stretched out her right hand, which could only move, and led everyone to look at the place she pointed, the light here was very good, but the surface of Honghu Lake was a little reflective, and it was quite thorough, but it was dark again!
I can't help but feel cold.
Xue Bao: "Can you feel that the scenery that originally felt unique all the way to this place, but when you get here, you feel a chill down your spine at first glance? The emperor likes to feast guests here, so naturally he can't do this." ”
The Emperor: "I have noticed this place before, but when my eyes turned, I had some regrets, so I could only limit myself to this place. ”
"That's right, but you can continue to look at it with confidence, in the distance of the lake, can you still see a few palace lamps in the palace? They don't look bright, through a period of darkness, in fact, it is very meaningful. ”
"What name do you want to choose?" Xiao Tong also came to be interested and asked with a smile.
Xue Yu also smiled, her eyes were shining, and she was very good-looking.
"My construction is that you can take only one here, and look at the star path. Guests can talk about the lake as the night sky, and watch the faint palace lights in the distance, which soften the quiet and uncomfortable surface of the lake. ”
"In this way, everywhere you look, there is a view.
The delicate trees at the beginning, the magnificent rockery scenery, to the famous flowers here, it seems that they have not seen enough, and when people see the lake, they can think of the name of this place, "looking at the stars".
When his eyes extended to find the palace lamp in the distance, he was afraid that he would only suddenly realize it, and he was happy......" Xiao Tong explained with a smile, a tacit understanding.
Tell everything that Xuefu wants to say.
The applause suddenly rang out, it was the emperor.
"Good! Sure enough, it's good! A trail, I just deliberately arranged, but I haven't solved the disadvantages of this scenery for a long time, I didn't expect your name to be alleviated.
It also leaves an evocative artistic conception, snow coat, I really don't know how to reward you. Originally, I didn't expect you to take the next one, the Peony Pavilion Tongshujing and the like......"
In the face of the emperor's praise, this time everyone couldn't help but applaud, especially those who read poetry and books, and they couldn't help but be embarrassed in the face of such a reaction to reality.
"Let's go!" Zuo Lingling said.
She stayed in the corner and persuaded the other ladies to leave with her to see the epiphany, originally thought that most people would agree with her, but she didn't expect everyone to be attracted by the snow coat!
She could only wave her sleeves now and leave angrily.
The appreciative look of the man present and the envy in the eyes of the woman were all what she wanted, but now she gave them all to Xuejiao.
The emperor announced loudly: "In the future, this place will be called "Wangxingjing", and the name is taken by Lin Xuejiao. ”
He smiled with satisfaction, and everyone looked at Xue Jiao, with a faint smile on her face, although she never doubted her ability, but sometimes, it still had to rely on a trace of inspiration and great observation.
Of these two things, she at least did the latter.
The curved eyebrows, the pear vortex exposed by a light smile, and a pair of light blue apricot eyes, accompanied by her beautiful and refined temperament, are deeply imprinted in everyone's eyes.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Tong said suddenly, reaching out to support her.
Xue Yu felt his eyes blacken, and his body suddenly lost his strength, and he fell into his arms, which was a familiar disease.
It's Li Xunduan's poison!
"What's wrong? Miss Lin?"
"What's wrong with Miss Lin, is this uncomfortable?"
For a while, everyone was asking enthusiastically, all of them were worried, and the emperor was also stunned, and before he could speak, he saw Xiao Tong and Xuejiao's eyes falling beside him.
Li Xun had been drinking tea silently for a long time, and at this moment she put down the teacup and looked at the snow coat, her white-brushed face and the appearance that she couldn't stand were very distressing.
It turns out that her poison hasn't been completely cured? huh......
Xiao Tong is unwilling to help herself, so she can only suffer, what can be done?
Xia Dan looked at both sides of him, and suddenly understood something, just with a mysterious smile.
"Are you just tired?"
"This, why doesn't Your Highness call the Imperial Doctor?"
"This can't be forced, look at it, the snow coat is already pale!"
"How can this work?"
In the midst of a worried voice, suddenly there was a human:
"Do you need to call the Imperial Doctor?" This was an immature voice, and Xue Yu saw that it was Zuo Yan.
He looked at himself with a smile, but his light brown eyes were full of worry, and his slender eyelashes reflected the pure and beautiful youth like a fawn.
Xue Yu wanted to answer, but was grabbed by Xiao Tong.
Xiao Tong: "Your Majesty, it's not too early......"
"Newspaper! Your Majesty!"
Suddenly, there was a sound that pierced the sky, and a man rushed in, dressed in tatters, but vaguely apparent to be a soldier.
"Huh, who is this?"
"yes! ”
The ladies all looked at him with horror, but Xue Cao recognized that it was someone who had sent war reports from the front.
"Report!" Although he was weak, as soon as he saw the emperor, he held up the letter in his arms and shouted.
The emperor frowned and became nervous: "What happened?"
"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, please see!" the soldier did not dare to shout loudly, but handed over a letter.
When the emperor saw that there were still blood stains on the letter, he immediately became solemn.
Everyone watched with bated breath as he opened it, read the contents of the letter quickly, and suddenly his body fell backwards and staggered several steps!
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Zhao Guifei reacted immediately and stepped forward to help the emperor.
Unexpectedly, the emperor's eyes were red, and he actually pushed Zhao Guifei away!
"What's wrong with the emperor, what's going on?" asked Mrs. Zuo nervously.
Everyone was very worried, and looked at the emperor expectantly, but he turned his back and left!
"The ministers of the court, above the third grade, come to the imperial study immediately!"
The guests all looked at each other at this time, and could only disperse the banquet in a hurry, Xia Dan knew that it was a battle report and was a little worried, and looked at Li Xunduan, he didn't seem to have any reaction, just got up and walked to the imperial study.
"Let's go back!" Xiao said.
Xue Yu refused: "No, you should go to the imperial study." I can go back myself, don't worry!"
"But, your body?" he was still not at ease, but Xue Yu insisted, so he had to call someone to help her and turn around to keep up with the emperor's pace.
What is it that can make the emperor panic so much? )>
