Chapter 105: Patrol (4. Guess the riddle)

The fourth elder brother has been silently staying aside, sometimes the fifth elder brother talks to him, he also nods and shakes his head to answer, even if he occasionally speaks, it is very short to end, as for the joke between the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother, I think he usually sees a lot, and he doesn't care, and now when he hears the third elder brother ask himself, he said four words in his faint voice that has gradually formed his style recently, "Guess Fang Zhi." *With* dream* small* say http://www.suimeng.l

Hajlan almost couldn't hold back his laughter when he heard what the fourth elder brother said, no wonder he said that Yongzheng was pragmatic, listening to what he said, isn't it just a big truth?

Hajlan couldn't help but laugh, but the others were different, the ninth elder brother immediately laughed, and then the tenth elder brother followed. There are also a few elder brothers, although they are not as happy as the two of them, but the smile on their faces is already overflowing, and at the same time, snickering sounds from other places also sound from time to time. The third elder brother's face changed for a moment, but when he saw that the Queen Mother and Kangxi were also laughing, he also laughed, "It seems that although the fourth brother doesn't like to talk very much, he can also laugh." ”

"Huang Ama," after the ninth elder brother laughed, he said to Kangxi, "Since you have guessed Fang Zhi, can you let that girl tell the mystery now." The son still wants to see who can guess first? Is it because the third brother's books are more useful, or is my brain work better? ”

"How?" Kangxi raised his eyebrows, looked at Brother Jiu and asked, "Do you think that it must be one of the two of you who will win?" Surely no one else can compare to you? ”

"Of course not," Brother Jiu quickly explained, "It's just that my son thinks that after the third brother and I said that, the other brothers may not want to fight with us anymore, at least my son is." ”

"Really?" Kangxi looked at the other brothers, "Don't you all want to guess?" ”

"Back to Huang Ama," the eldest brother saluted Kangxi and said, "It is said that the son, as the eldest brother, should not compete with the younger brothers, but if everyone guesses the riddle together to win the food given by the imperial mother, it is the emperor Ama, if everyone gives up or perfunctory, then wouldn't it" Speaking of this, the eldest brother paused, as if he was wording, "Disappointing." ”

Although the eldest brother chose such a less harsh and strict word, how could everyone present not hear the unfinished meaning of his words, he was obviously saying that if everyone refused to guess the riddle seriously, it would be to look down on the queen mother's reward and ignore Kangxi's words. So as soon as he finished saying this, the atmosphere on the field immediately became colder, and the expressions on the faces of the brothers were a little unnatural.

Moving the queen mother's wine glass aside, Hajlan took the honey water that the palace maid had soaked and presented it to the queen mother, whose smile had faded, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, the eldest brother had done this, although he understood it from his point of view, it was not unreasonable, but this thing has many faces, but he prefers to choose the strictest one, although Kangxi still has a smile on his face after hearing this, but the smile in his eyes is no longer visible. You must know that even later, when Kangxi himself took a lot of precautions and suppressed his sons, he still hoped that his sons could have a flesh-and-blood friendship, not to mention that it was not yet time for the drama to be fully staged. Of course, the eldest brother may just want to please the Queen Mother and Kangxi, or he is simply afraid that others will blame him for this reason, but the problem is that it is objectively counterproductive now. It can be seen that he is really temperamental, and the eldest brother may be essentially a man who can't talk but have a brain.

Hajlan wanted to think about it, but in fact, it didn't take long in terms of time, because the cold scene caused by the eldest brother's words was only for a moment, and the fifth elder brother opened his mouth, but not to him, but to the ninth elder brother, and said: "Ninth brother, of course your heart is good, but it also depends on when and on what occasion, just like this time, it is rare for the royal grandmother to give food, and everyone will fight together to be lively." ”

Although Kangxi also brought Concubine Yi out on this trip, the emperor's women did not come out casually to enjoy chrysanthemums and climb heights, so on this occasion, Kangxi's concubines were not here, but had another banquet. Concubine Yi Niangniang is not there, so when Brother Jiu is accused by others, and it is still a very strict accusation. The fifth elder brother, who is the same brother as his mother, naturally can't sit idly by. It's just that the fifth elder brother was raised by the queen mother since she was a child, and her temperament is more peaceful than others, so although she wants to help the ninth elder brother, she is still very polite when she speaks, and she doesn't fight back against the eldest brother, but just speaks to the ninth elder brother, turning this matter into a big thing and a small matter.

The Queen Mother was not depressed because the eldest brother spoke inappropriately, and when she saw that the fifth elder brother opened her mouth, of course she wanted to give her a hand, "According to what you say, do you still blame me for today's battle?" ”

"It's not that you complain about the emperor's mother," the fifth elder brother saw the queen mother's gaze, and naturally knew in his heart, and he also brought some coquettish meaning of grandson and grandmother when he spoke, "If you want one person to give a piece of food, won't everyone have to fight?" ”

"One for each person?" The Queen Mother couldn't help but smile, "I don't hesitate to give it, only if you can eat it." ”

"Alright," said the Queen Mother, shaking her head and smiling, "I've been talking about this riddle for a while, but it hasn't started, so when will I hear Hajran's secret?" ”

"It's the son's, the son, let them start." Kangxi hurriedly said to the Queen Mother.

"Don't be busy first," the Queen Mother said that she was anxious, but she stopped Kangxi with words, "I also thought about it, I made trouble for so long just now, and I fought for so long, and when I finally guessed the riddle, I only guessed one riddle, which was too simple and not interesting enough." ”

"What does the emperor mean?" Kangxi asked the Queen Mother.

"I mean," said the Queen Mother with a smile, "since you want to guess the riddle, just guess more." Except for Hajran, everyone wants to guess some riddles, and whoever guesses will have a prize, and what Lao Wu said just now is very good, everyone has a share, neither need to fight, nor let go. There was only one idea, but Hajran's idea could only be told to the first person who guessed her riddle. ”

"Huang Eniang's idea is good," Kangxi nodded with a smile, and said to everyone present, "Today is a happy day, the Queen Mother decided to let everyone guess the riddle to congratulate, everyone present can participate, anyone who guesses will appreciate the food made of chrysanthemums, and if you guess more, I will also have a reward." ”

After hearing this, everyone present hurriedly saluted and thanked him. Kangxi asked them to think about the riddle first, and then looked at his sons with a faint smile, "Okay, now you don't have to fight, you don't have to let it go," and then called Hajilan, "Lan girl, you can tell your riddle." ”

Hajlan was struggling at this time, and when the ninth and tenth elder brothers began to laugh there, she was still glad in her heart, glad that they had diverted everyone's attention from her. But later, with the change of the shape on the field, she felt more and more unstable, and she originally mentioned yì out of the mystery because it was the easiest way, but she didn't expect it to make her brothers unhappy, what is this, and she is really unlucky, right? But it's too late to regret it now, so it's better to say it out and finish it quickly, and as for the future, let's talk about it after today.

Hajlan promised Kangxi, and before telling the riddle, he saluted the Queen Mother and Kangxi, and then bowed in the direction of the brothers.

"Okay, don't grind the rocks, hurry up," the tenth elder brother urged Hajilan anxiously, "You must say something difficult, you can't let people guess lightly." ”

"You can't let me guess lightly, right?" Brother Jiu took over with a smile.

"Just say what's wrong with you?" Brother Ten admitted unabashedly, "I just don't want you to win this time." ”

"Then we'll have to see again." Brother Jiu said with a smile, "If you want me to win, I may not win, and if you want me to lose, I may not lose." ”

"Queen Mother, Emperor, Elder Brother," Hajilan also finished his salute at this time, looked at the empty space where the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother were talking, and said with a smile, "Hajilan's riddle is: 'Look at a good tree, and look closely at the branches and birds'. ”

"What's the mystery?" It was the third elder brother who made the inquiry.

"Typing," Hajran said with a polite smile at him, "Chinese characters."

"Look at a good tree, and look at the branches with birds." A few elder brothers are groaning. Or scratched on the table, and Brother Ten only thought about it for a moment and gave up, and asked the other brothers except Brother Nine, "How is it?" If you don't want to figure it out, hurry up. "The big voice of the tenth elder brother directly interfered with the train of thought of those elder brothers, and when the third elder brother gestured in the palm of his hand, his eyes lit up, and the ninth elder brother said the riddle, "It's the word 'set'." ”

The third elder brother looked at the ninth elder brother and swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, and the joy on his face calmed down, while the fourth elder brother's face still had that expressionless expression, at least at the level of Hajilan, she couldn't see the meaning, so she suspected that the fourth elder brother wasn't guessing the riddle at all just now, but just stayed here with everyone.

After the tenth elder brother opened his mouth, he couldn't hide his disappointment, but he still asked Hajilan without giving up, "Is he right?" ”

Hajran smiled and nodded.
