Chapter 175: The Battle of the Palace Banquet IV
readx;
Tang Mo's hand holding the cup shook slightly, and the wine almost spilled out. It took a moment for the pen to laugh www.biquge.info worse than crying, "Is that good, good." ”
Except for these few words, he really has nothing to say, an outsider, from beginning to end, is an outsider.
The wry smile on the corner of Tang Mo's mouth became deeper and deeper.
Mu Xiang looked at the few people who spoke, and then looked at the queen's obvious biased expression, and made it clear: If you dare to pursue it, you will be punished for the same crime.
She shook her shoulders and suddenly smiled, "I didn't say anything, you guys are thinking too much, I'm just curious about the laws of the Southern Jin Dynasty, look at what makes you nervous, ouch, Miss Dou, Lord Dou, why are you kneeling on the ground, it's just a matter of destroying a painting, presumably your Dou family is a national treasure like this, a few carriages can't fit it, just a painting of the first emperor, how can your Dou family put it in your eyes"
Queen Dou's mood at this time has reached the edge of forbearance, and she is about to go crazy, but she is not good at attacking, "Princess Xiang should be cautious in her words and deeds, what to say and what not to say, you should know, what place is here, what is your identity, it is not your turn to call the shots"
Mu Xiang didn't bother to bother with the old woman, "Since you all said that you won't investigate the damage to the painting, then shouldn't we talk about the question of victory or defeat, I've been standing here for so long, I'm tired"
In the last few words, she said in an extremely light tone, like a breeze blowing.
The magpie reacted the fastest, and hurriedly brought a stool over, "Madam, sit down for a while." ”
"Hmm," Mu Xiang sat comfortably on the soft chair, looking at Dou Hanyan condescendingly, she was still kneeling.
Tang Xin sighed: "This is not bad, it's time to divide the victory or defeat, old emperor, what you said can still be counted, which one is true and which one is fake, you have to look carefully, this king and you clearly heard you say before, the one you are holding in your hand is real, you don't have to look dazzled."
The old emperor's eyes, which were originally squinting, widened suddenly, and said angrily: "The sixth prince is questioning the old man's judgment The painting of the first emperor, how could the old man admit his mistake, if he is wrong, the old man will gouge out his eyeballs and give you a ball to step on."
The old man is a lot old, and his breath is uneven, but his temperament is very big.
Besides, whether what he has in his hand is true or not, it doesn't matter, he is the emperor's teacher, that is, the emperor's teacher, although he has no real power, but his position in the court is unshakable.
At such an old age, who dares to go up and refute him, he says one, it is one, he says two, that is two.
In case you refute it and make him angry again, Emperor Tang will definitely pursue it.
Dou Hanyan and the queen calculated this point, so they invited his old man out, but what they didn't expect was that Mu Xiang was one step ahead of them and stuffed the painting into the old emperor's hand.
He is old and dizzy, and very arrogant, even if he can't see it accurately, and can't figure out which one is true, he will identify one according to his own standards, which is a mistake that old pedants will make, and the older he gets, the more serious it is.
Tang Xin smiled gloatingly: "You are always leisurely, no one doubts your decision, come on, invite the emperor down, be entertained, don't let his old man be angry again." ”
A few small servants stepped forward, even asked for chairs, and lifted the old man up.
Queen Dou really wants to ask this old man again, will she be mistaken, what kind of girl grabbed a random one, it is the original painting, this is clearly Meng.
But seeing that the old man was panting, she was almost out of breath, she still held back, and was angry with the old emperor, and the Tang Emperor would definitely be anxious with her.
She thought for a moment, "Since the two paintings have been destroyed, this competition is already unfair, what does Concubine Xian think?"
Concubine Xian smiled, "The paintings are all ruined, what is it better than anything, isn't there another one anyway, Princess Xiang also won one, you should be generous, don't let people think that you don't want to play the last game, so you made this decision, we are not blind, look at the truth, Princess Xiang, you say yes"
She smiled, Mu Xiang also smiled, cocked Erlang's legs, leaned back in the chair, and said in a lazy tone: "Concubine Xian said yes, that's it, who made you a mother, how dare we do it against you."
Isn't it just to repay the account Since this account is settled, then they will drag another one into the water, Mu Fengting, Mu Fengting, when it comes to fighting mouths, you are still a little tender.
Sure enough, after Mu Xiang finished speaking, the queen glanced at Concubine Xian coldly, obviously she was the one she asked, but in the end, she actually made her unhappy again.
Concubine Xian is thankless, and her words are in vain.
Lost two games in a row, and got everyone's eyes, Dou Hanyan gritted her gums, hating to eat her alive, obviously she had all the advantages, but what she couldn't figure out was why she guessed the beginning, but couldn't guess the ending, and this ending was still so bizarre.
Thinking about it, the woman's first two games, but by opportunism, won by luck, and then, the fight is strength, she still doesn't believe it, a country woman, has never read a book, doesn't know a few big words, and can guess word puzzles
"Princess Xiang, let's each come up with five word puzzles, whoever guesses it first will win"
Mu Xiang shook her head very slowly, "Okay, take turns to come, hurry up, the hour is not early, my husband can't see me go back, he will definitely find it."
"Don't be too complacent, take the first question first, come here, take pen and ink," in fact, she can also use it, but no, she knows that Mu Xiang has never read a book, even if she can write a few words, she must also write very ugly, how can she let go of such an opportunity to humiliate her.
She wrote it, gave it to the eunuch beside her, hung it on a screen, and turned it so that everyone could see it.
Tang Xin read in a low voice: "The lake and the water shadow moon are in the sky, type a word, what does this mean?"
He looked puzzled, Tang Yan looked at it, his eyebrows were deeply locked at first, but he quickly relaxed, "This is a typical anagram, Dou Hanyan is really bold, she expected that the other party couldn't answer, so she came up with the simplest one, that is, I don't know"
"I don't know what" Tang Xin is not good at guessing word puzzles, so he naturally doesn't know the twists and turns here.
Mu Fengting laughed maniacally, "Such a simple anagram, thanks to what she said, is really embarrassing for Nanjin's face." ”
Queen Dou glanced at her, "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute."
Mu Fengting pursed his lips and said nothing. didn't speak, she was panicked, can she not be in a hurry
"Princess Xiang can't guess it, there's nothing embarrassing, you just say it, no one will laugh at you, there are four questions behind, maybe you can get it right again" Dou Hanyan saw Mu Xiang's thinking look, thinking that she was illiterate, how could she guess what the word was.
Mu Xiang smiled very purely, "You think too much, I'm hesitating, saying it too fast, will it make you very faceless, after all, it's you who bothered and worked hard to find out the anagram, I have to give you face."
"What do you mean by that, can you guess?"
"Is this difficult" Mu Xiang beckoned to Tang Xin, "I'm tired of the six princes coming over to help me, I heard that the six princes wrote a good handwriting, and let us see and understand."
Except for Tang Xin, she couldn't call anyone else.
Tang Xin smiled lightly, walked over quickly, rolled up his sleeves, picked up the wolf's hair, and his posture was free and easy, "Say it"
Mu Xiang whispered something in his ear, Tang Xin wrote quite quickly, and in the blink of an eye, a word full of strength was completed.
"Gu" Hongye read out the answer to this word on her behalf, "It is indeed a very simple anagram, the county lord is deliberately letting the princess, it is really humble." ”
Dou Hanyan's beautiful face, one will be red, the other will be white, alternately changing, it is very good-looking, "The first question is just a small test to ease the atmosphere, why should you be serious, it's time for you to make the question." ”
Mu Xiang summoned Tang Xin again and whispered something to him.
Tang Xin smiled and wrote again.
Mu Xiang looked at Dou Hanyan and smiled deeply: "I'm talking about the riddle of four words, you have to guess it accurately, it may be difficult, if you can't guess it, it's okay." ”
Tang Xin's pen is "full of flowers"
Dou Hanyan looked at those four words, confused, what kind of anagram is this, it doesn't make sense
Mu Xiang saw her sad look, and said jokingly: "Why, I can't guess the type of competition, but you said it, I didn't pick it, since you picked it, it should also be the strength of the county lord, how could you not guess it?"
Dou Hanyan was anxious, his face turned white, "That's not right, you're not an anagram at all, it's your own blind fabrication, I've never seen such a riddle."
Tang Xin smiled very interestingly, "If you can't guess, just say it's nonsense, the county lord is very good at quibbling, you are playing tricks like this, is it really good?"
Dou Hanyan was embarrassed and indignant, "Then you say, what is the mystery, if you can't say it, it's nonsense."
Mu Xiang gestured a word at Tang Xin, and Tang Xin wrote a word: Yan.
After writing, he looked like a good show, waiting to see Dou Hanyan's expression.
Mu Xiang has been standing here for so long, tired, and having had enough, and said impatiently: "It's been so long, let's make a decision, you were the first to make a decision, and this time it's my turn, I'll come out with a Shang, if you come out right, even if I lose, if you can't guess, you can do it yourself."
Tang Xin was obedient this time, and without waiting for Mu Xiang to greet him, he leaned over.
A moment later, an extra-long couplet hung under the porch.
Above: The mica screen is open, the pearl curtain is closed, and the wind blows away the agarwood. Depressed, the golden coat weaves sulfur, the cypress shadow and the cinnamon branches are intertwined, calmly rise, and make the mercury pond. Forsythia swept through the middle of the summer, cool mint clothes. A hook vine on the moon, ordinary mountain night, dream of the battlefield. has long been light powder, living alone in an empty house. If you want to break the string, the aconitum is white, and the most bitter ginseng business. Angelica also, dogwood ripe, old chrysanthemum yellow. Excerpt from: Xin Qi's illness is full of quiet night thoughts
Tang Xin finished writing this pair of Shangzhen, and studied it carefully for a long time.
When Shang Zhen hung up under the corridor, everyone, including Tang Yan, was dumbfounded.
A pair of long couplets, containing the names of 24 Chinese medicines. It is not easy to deal with this one.
Looking at it again, Dou Hanyan's face is earthy gray, and she knows that at this moment, she has the heart to die.
The magpie stepped forward to help Mu Xiang and led her back to the position where she was originally sitting, and the little red hair rested for a while, and the color of her fur returned to normal, but her spirit was a little wilted, and she couldn't keep up.
Tang Yan kept staring at her face, and when she sat down, she asked unexpectedly, "Where did you copy this poem?"
In his words, this eyesight and brain power are too avant-garde.
Mu Xiang glanced at him, her red lips opened slightly, "Can you manage it?"
That's right, do you have the ability to find it out?
Tang Yan didn't catch his breath, he was out of breath, covering his mouth and coughing violently, "You, you are ruthless enough"
Mu Xiang smiled brightly, "If you can find out, you can prove that I copied it, if you can't, you can't care, do you understand?"
"Okay, even if I didn't say it, you're a talented girl, amazing"
Momiji came over, "Sister, I really can't see it, you still know poetry, such complex poems, you have written them, I'm afraid that if you add up the talents in Beijing, you won't be able to come down to me, tell me quickly, what is Xia I?"
"I don't know about it," she didn't really know, the famous sentence of the great poet Xin Qiji in her previous life, just a few of them, can blind their eyes, but she knows how to be a low-key person, which is already very hateful, and she doesn't want to pull the hatred value anymore.
Momiji shook his fingers, "You, you, you can make the little county lord miserable, look at her current appearance, I can't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into, do you want to let her go"
Let it go, that is, if she doesn't pursue it, if she doesn't pursue it, Dou Hanyan will definitely not achieve the punishment she promised at the beginning. But she is not a soft-hearted person. This Dou Hanyan is the queen's person, and since she entered Fenglintai, he has targeted her everywhere and punished her, also to set an example for the queen and teach the queen a lesson.
"How can I not pursue it, hey, Miss Dou, you guess no, if not, then you will lose, quickly kneel on the ground, learn to bark three times, but don't say anything, words don't count"
"I, I" Dou Hanyan will really panic, even if she knows a little about herbal medicine, it is impossible to know so many drug names, this is obviously difficult, but I hate that she said too much before, and the retreat was blocked.
She looked at the people around her, the few who spoke for her before, they all just stared at me at this time, most of them were scholars, they were going to take the autumn exam this year, they were naturally interested in ancient Chinese poetry, how could they not look obsessively when they met such a strange look through the ages.
At this moment, in their eyes, the couplet is more beautiful than a beauty.
There was no way, Dou Hanyan could only look at the queen for help.
Mu Xiang saw that the queen's mouth opened, as if she was about to open her mouth to plead, and said first: "Niangniang is the most fair, and I didn't force her to say it, and she proposed the competition herself, why, when it's time to admit defeat and be punished, do you have to play tricks and not admit it?"
If Queen Dou really dares to open her mouth to plead, don't blame her for flipping the table and turning her face, one by one, she has to force her, when she is a soft persimmon, knead it casually
Queen Dou's words rolled to her mouth, she had to swallow it back, and weighed it, "Hanyan, since you lose, just do what Princess Xiang said, but before that, you should apologize to the princess for your previous rudeness, and the princess is coming."
The eunuch took a glass of wine and handed it to Dou Hanyan, "The county lord should go over quickly, don't let the princess wait."
Dou Hanyan looked at the cup in his hand, then at Queen Dou, and suddenly smiled, "Yes, the courtiers know, so let's go to accompany the princess."
The cup she was holding was empty.
The eunuch accompanied her to Mu Xiang's table.
Dou Hanyan picked up the wine jug on the wooden incense table and poured a glass of wine into his cup.
"Hey, this wine" Hongye wanted to stop it, but was stopped by the eunuch first.
"Princess Xiang's wine glass should also be full," he took the wine pot that Dou Hanyan had poured very attentively, and filled Mu Xiang's wine glass, in fact, Mu Xiang's wine glass was not moved, only Xiao Hongmao licked it, and there was not much wine, he was perfunctory.
Mu Xiang watched the movements of the two of them, and did not open his mouth to stop them, just like watching a play.
Dou Hanyan seemed to have suddenly changed his face, no longer angry, no longer hateful gritted his teeth, but smiled very sweetly and cutely. People who don't know still think they are good friends
"You have a lot of adults, you shouldn't be like me, I'll do it first."
She was unambiguous, covering her mouth with her long sleeves, tilting her neck, and drinking clean.
Handing the cup to the eunuch, she bowed down towards Tang Yanfu again, "I heard that the four princes like to watch the Chaofeng dance, Han Yan knows a little about fur, and he uses dance as a substitute for punishment, I don't know what the prince wants."
A beautiful woman has this benefit, throwing a wink at a man, and an ordinary man is afraid that his soul will fly away.
It's just a pity that she met Tang Yan, her life is almost gone, and she has no interest in men and women, so her appeal is destined to fail
"The person the county lord should ask is the princess, this is a matter between you, and this king can't interject," Tang Yan smiled, laughing harmlessly.
Dou Hanyan was like being struck by lightning, "but"
Hongye lowered his face coldly, and said: "Everything was proposed by you, you don't want to admit it yourself, what kind of truth is this, bullying people, the county lord, you are not young anymore, is it possible to really cheat"
Mu Xiang smiled colder than her, "If you refuse to be punished, I will let people press you, in short, I don't like what others promised, and I go back on my word, even if this matter goes to the emperor, I dare to say and dare to do it."
Yan Zhong didn't need her orders, he had already stepped forward, ready to move.
Everything today is clearly not good for those who come, so there is no need to be polite to them.
Dou Hanyan cried, "I have already apologized to you, why do you just refuse to let me go, I haven't left the cabinet yet, this is obviously forcing me to die, what are your intentions?"
Mu Xiang was almost amused by her, she stood up suddenly, and before she could do anything, she saw that the table in front of her suddenly overturned, and smashed straight at Dou Hanyan.
"Ah" Dou Hanyan only had time to open his eyes wide, screamed, and the whole thing was smashed by the square table.
The table smashed, and she was crushed underneath.
Mu Xiang spread out his hand and squeezed his shoulder, not pretending to be innocent, but really innocent, "I didn't move, the table flew over by itself, but it doesn't matter to me." ”
Queen Dou slapped the table and stood up, "Princess Xiang, you dare to commit violence against people in front of the palace, why are you still stunned, why don't you hurry up and help the county lord up"
Several eunuchs, as well as Dou Hanyan's maidservants, hurriedly ran over, opened the table, and helped Dou Hanyan to sit up.
But as soon as she sat up, she suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, her face turned white, her whole person convulsed, rolled her eyes, and looked like she was about to die.
The little eunuch was about to pee, "Niangniang, the county lord is vomiting blood, the county lord is vomiting blood"
"What's the panic, don't hurry up and call the imperial doctor," the queen is the queen after all, and seeing that her niece is about to die, she is also calm.
Those few people hurriedly lifted Dou Hanyan, and they were about to carry it to the inner hall in a hurry.
In a panic, one will knock her head, the other will hit her head.
Well, there was still salvation, but when it was moved to the inner hall, it was already full of holes and there was no help.
Mu Yuelan saw the opportunity, suddenly stood up and shouted: "Why are you still stunned, why don't you hurry up and arrest Princess Xiang, commit murder in public, blaspheme the law of the country, and put her on death row."
A group of people and horses that appeared out of nowhere, there were dozens of people, wearing the clothes of ordinary guards, but their eyes were full of death.
"Ah, murder"
"Ahh
Many female dependents saw that everyone was drawing their swords, and they were scurrying around with their heads in fear.
Mrs. Xu didn't dare to speak today, until she saw that they were going to do it with real knives and guns, so she came out and dragged Mu Yuelan to leave.
"Oh, mother, I'm not leaving, I'm going to stay and watch a good show, you have to go by your own," Mu Yuelan shook off her hand and refused to leave.
------Off topic------
Dear friends, there is less light smoke today, I want to alleviate it, but it won't be broken, hehe, spray me
Rest assured, this is the bare minimum and will not be less than that
