Chapter 3: Competing for Favor (Today's Chapter 3)
On such an occasion, the row of seats can be seen that a person's status is extremely particular about the difference between dignity and inferiority.
Needless to say, Emperor Mingde sat on the dragon chair, his left hand side was the Queen Mother, and the first position on his right hand was behind the position of the Queen Mother, and it should be the queen.
But Zhao Shu didn't see the queen present, and Hao Guifei sat next to Emperor Mingde, squeezing the prince to the next position.
Location is such a trivial matter, naturally there is no need to care, but! If you don't think about it, some people will be too proud.
Zhao Shu sat next to the Queen Mother, King Yong sat next to King Hui, Emperor Mingde gave an order, everyone sat down in turn, and Zhao Shu glanced at everyone.
The courtiers and Chinese courtiers lined up on both sides of the main room according to their rank, while their children sat behind them.
Zhao Shu saw Sun Yun and didn't see Huo Danlan, but Huo Baichuan brought Huo Guxian with him.
Yao Yao smiled at Sun Yun, which was regarded as a greeting.
Liuli and Xie Jinhuan, as well as Lin Xiuxue and Guan Yurong also came, and a lady Xiu Yaoyao signaled to Zhao Shu, Zhao Shu knew this person in her previous life, and she was the fourth girl of Zhiyuan Houfu.
When her eyes swept over Yang Zhong, she was a little surprised, Yang Shixuan was also there, it seemed that he had some ability.
It's good, it's all here.
Seeing that it was almost over, he retracted his gaze and said coquettishly to the Queen Mother: "Imperial grandmother, Xian'er is sitting too far away, shall we let him sit?" ”
The Queen Mother was quite satisfied with Huo Guxian, and when she heard Zhao Shu say this, how could she disagree, so she immediately asked Mama Zhong to set up a small number of them beside her, and asked Zhang Chu to invite Huo Guxian in person.
Miss Huo is no longer a five- or six-year-old little Zhengtai, but an eleven or twelve-year-old little adult, but she still has a Zhengtai face, extremely cute, especially when she is serious, she is even more cute, Zhao Shu wants to pinch his face every time, but now he can say, "County Lord, men and women don't kiss." You don't make sense to do that. ’
Huo Guxian was invited by Zhang Chu and saluted very respectfully, just sitting next to him like a little adult, and the more the Queen Mother looked at it, the more satisfied she became. I was thinking about when I would talk to Huo Baichuan about getting married.
When Hao Guifei saw that Zhao Shu had invited Huo Guxian over, she sneered, what kind of etiquette and shame can a wild child who grew up in the countryside understand? It's blatant, and I'm blatant!
raised a bewitching smile, and said in a weird manner: "The county lord and Huo Xiaogongzi are really close. She didn't dare to offend the Huo family too much. Then he said, "There are many sons in this hall, and I don't see you inviting them over." ”
Her voice was clear, and as soon as she spoke, everyone heard it, and immediately looked at Zhao Shu mockingly, especially Lin Xiuxue and others, they had not forgotten the infamous Zhao Shu back then, and they were extremely dissatisfied with Zhao Shu's transformation into a virtuous and famous, and when they heard Hao Guifei say this, they gloated.
Huo Guxian's face changed. immediately wanted to speak out, but Zhao Shu took the lead, and without waiting for the Queen Mother to get angry, she smiled and said: "It's true that you are kind, but Ah Jun didn't invite Huo Xiaogongzi over for himself, but for Uncle Huang." ”
Hmph, waiting is your arrogance, although I can't tell Emperor Mingde the fact that you are unfaithful, but there is a way to make you die a hundred times.
When Emperor Mingde heard this, he couldn't help asking, "En." Let's hear it. ”
Zhao Shuyan smiled, stood up, saluted Emperor Mingde, and said, "You have to ask Miss Sun about this matter." ”
Emperor Mingde was even more confused. Everyone is also curious, some want to see Zhao Shu's jokes, some want Zhao Shu's true face to be seen through, in short, most of them want her to make a fool of herself.
"Ah Yun, come here." She said.
Sun Yun stood up. Came to Emperor Mingde, curtsied, and looked at Zhao Shu.
Everyone's eyes focused on Huo Guxian, Sun Yun and her, Zhao Shu whetted everyone's appetite before smiling and saying to Emperor Mingde: "Uncle Huang, today is your birthday, if Ah Jun can make you laugh, can you reward Ah Jun with a grace?" ”
"Reward." Emperor Mingde is accustomed to her boldness, and the things that Zhao Shu wants are always insignificant, such as going back to the house to sleep.
Zhao Shu bowed her knees and thanked her, and turned to Sun Yun and said, "Ah Yun, last time you took the riddle of the little boy Huo, he solved it?" ”
When she mentioned it like this, Sun Yun immediately remembered and looked at Huo Guxian, Huo Guxian suddenly blushed, the puzzle was too difficult, he **** thinking, he couldn't think of an answer, he originally planned to ask Sun Yun, but as soon as he grew up and his face was thin, he was embarrassed to ask again.
Huo Baichuan can be called a ghost talent, everyone has experienced it in the past few years, Huo Guxian looks cute and upright, judging from his face, everyone's first reaction is that this son must be smart, what will be the puzzle that he can't solve?
But after all, it was a child, but Sun Yun was not big back then, some people were curious, naturally some people ignored it, and some people sneered.
Sun Yun shook his head, "Not really." ”
Huo Guxian's face was already red persimmons.
Emperor Mingde asked very cooperatively: "What is the puzzle?" ”
"Take the egg and throw the stone, why is the egg not broken?" Zhao Shu's eyes moved, and she said a brain teaser that she had seen on the Internet before.
Sun Yun and Huo Guxian were stunned, but both of them lowered their heads, and they didn't let people see anything unusual, so they were both startled, if that puzzle was said, what should the emperor do when he was angry?
However, Zhao Shu just borrowed the two of them to set off the atmosphere, and with him and the two of them, others didn't dare to say anything too ugly, the scene was easy to control, but after this incident, she must have asked the two to forgive her.
As soon as the words came out, everyone racked their brains to think that some wise people naturally had already figured it out, but people like Lin Xiuxue couldn't think of it if they wanted to break their heads.
After all, what is popular in Dayong is that 'I want to visit Meng but I don't get it' to guess a riddle like this.
Everyone thought for a while, Huo Baichuan had already thought of it, but he sat leisurely by himself, and from time to time he 'flirted' with Wei Tingsi opposite.
Emperor Mingde also thought for a while and couldn't think of it, Zhao Shu saw that everyone was temporarily stumped by this puzzle that did not follow common sense, so he smiled and said: "Guifei, I heard that Guifei is very intelligent, so she is favored by my imperial uncle, I don't know if you want to come up with it?" ”
"Concubine Ai has always been smart, can you think of it?" Emperor Mingde also asked.
Zhao Shu saw Emperor Mingde ask like this, and smiled contemptuously in her heart, she was not very favored.
Hao Guifei glared at Zhao Shu, quite aggrieved, and said ashamedly: "The emperor forgives the sin, and the concubine is stupid." ”
"Ah Jun, find out the answer quickly." Emperor Mingde scolded her, but he always smiled between his eyebrows.
Zhao Shu is not young now, and she can't pretend to be complacent, so she smiled on her face and revealed the answer very solemnly, "Take the egg and throw the stone, why don't the eggs break?" Why break? ”
"Hahaha." Emperor Mingde laughed, he reacted extremely quickly, and pointed at Zhao Shu while laughing, "Ghost elf." ”
"Uncle Huang smiled, you promised to give Ah Jun grace, now Ah Jun can make a request?" Zhao Shu looked casual, with the attitude of talking to her uncle, and said coquettishly.
Emperor Mingde nodded, "Come on." ”
Zhao Shu pushed Huo Guxian in front of Emperor Mingde, "Actually, the puzzle that Huo Xiaogongzi can't answer is another one, but I won't tell you." ”
"You, don't bully the little boy." Emperor Mingde shook his head again and again, "Don't want grace? ”
"Yes, Ah Jun wants to sit in the position of the concubine." Zhao Shu's words shocked Hao Guifei's heart.
Everyone also looked at each other, the county lord is going to compete with the concubine for favor? It's not right. (To be continued.) )
