Chapter 52: Rather a Poor Woman
Below the Tinglan Water Pavilion, only more than ten meters away from the courtyard where Jia Baoyu and the others were, a seven or eight-year-old little girl with big sparkling eyes and luxuriously dressed little girl listened to the description of the personal palace maid, and bent two crescents with a smile.
"Giggles, it's the darkness of this world that has created Wu Fan's shallowness of not knowing the number of etiquette, giggles, it's really interesting! Sister Ye, you say, why can he say such funny things? ”
In the house, in addition to her and the second and third palace maids, there is also a demure girl.
The girl had a long posture and long black hair, and when she heard this, she glanced back at the little girl and said, "It's just a curse, it's so funny?" I still talk about it, and I'm embarrassed to laugh at others. ”
"Yikes." The girl hurriedly covered her mouth, just because after she laughed, the place where the small teeth had just fallen out at the door of the teeth had not yet had time to be replaced with new teeth, and it did not look so beautiful.
At a young age, he also loves beauty.
However, she only covered it for a moment, and she quietly let go of her feelings, knowing that it was not a long-term solution, and her eyes rolled slightly, knowing how to take revenge.
"Hehe, it's not funny, it's just that Wu Fan, I have long thought he hated him, and now that someone scolds him like this, I am naturally happy. Could it be that Sister Ye is not happy? Oh, I know, he's a fart worm next to Brother Jing Hao, you look at Brother Jing Hao's face, I'm embarrassed to laugh at him, is this what others say about love and Wu? Cluck. ”
The girl took the girl's arm and said with a playful face.
The girl's apricot eyes suddenly opened slightly, knocked her forehead, and scolded: "Little Nizi, who is a big ghost, you know what to do, you know to follow nonsense!" ”
The girl held her forehead and said disappreciably: "Why don't I understand?" Brother Jing Hao is so good, everyone likes him, Sister Ye, why don't you like him? ”
Seeing that the girl didn't answer, the girl continued: "Brother Jing Hao is so good to you, just like today, in front of so many learned old men, let my sister preside over the selection of the merits, from now on, my sister's title of the first talented woman in the capital will really be known to everyone." ”
The girl tried her best to talk about the benefits of her brother Jing Hao, but unfortunately the girl was unmoved, she only said lightly: "If it weren't for my grandfather's life, how would I do this." What the first talented woman is, it's just a false name, and it doesn't matter to me at all.
It's you, why are you talking so much today? Say, what benefits did you take from him? ”
"Ugh." The girl, who was still about to speak again, was suddenly speechless. Seeing this, the girl threatened: "If you don't tell the truth, I won't take you to play in the future!" ”
"Okay, I said, Brother Jing Hao said, as long as I listen to him, he often brings me delicious rock sugar gourds......"
"Girl with no interest!" The girl was a little angry, but she was helpless, so she had to say: "Okay, I'll buy you sugar gourds in the future, don't bother me anymore!" ”
"Okay!"
When the girl heard that she could get benefits without having to work, she didn't hesitate at all. Tell the palace ladies to go out and pay attention to the interesting things outside, and go to look for the good poems that they copied down before.
The girl was finally clear, and once again looked at the scenery outside the window.
The cold wind gusted, and the cold water surface was rippling with cold ripples.
She thought of her aunt again, the woman who lived in the deepest part of the imperial palace all the year round, and once again strengthened her faith:
Rather be a poor woman than an imperial princess.
......
Wu Fan looked at Jia Baoyu in a daze and retreated after a few breaths, Jia Baoyu, who was full of breezy faces, and the brush in his hand slipped on the snow-white rice paper below.
He didn't believe that Jia Baoyu had done it so quickly!
Yes, he definitely couldn't do it, so he did it on purpose.
His Royal Highness the Second Prince has already checked it thousands of times, and soon, he will expose his bluff and make him the laughing stock of today, yes, it will definitely be so.
However, the expression on His Highness's face ......
And those people, why didn't they all speak? Could it be that Jia Baoyu wrote something rebellious, and they were all scared?
The second prince finally raised his head, and he looked at Jia Baoyu with an extremely strange and complicated look.
Jia Baoyu smiled and said, "If His Royal Highness the Second Prince has finished reading it, he can send it to Miss Ye for judgment." ”
The second prince shook his head, and Wu Fan said in a trembling voice when he saw this: "Your Highness, but what rebellious words did he say?" ”
The second prince shook his head again, faced Wu Fan and said, "You, lost." ”
"Your Highness?!"
The scene, after being so quiet for a long time, Wei Ruolan, who finally got a glimpse of Jia Baoyu's full poem, couldn't help but bow to Jia Baoyu and said: "Brother Jia is talented, from today onwards, I will no longer be worthy of Yongzhu!" ”
Jia Baoyu hurriedly returned the salute and said: "Brother Wei is serious, I really don't dare to take it seriously." ”
There were still many people around who hadn't seen Jia Baoyu's poems, and they had already discovered the abnormality at this time, so they all crowded over one by one.
"Impossible! There's no way I can lose!! Wu Fan looked like crazy, pushed away the person in front of him, snatched Jia Baoyu's poem manuscript, and then slowly, his whole body began to tremble, and the three words in his mind changed from "impossible" to "I lost......
Thinking of the price of losing, he wanted to tear the paper in his hand to shreds, but he also knew that it was useless, it was useless except to make himself more ridiculed, but he really couldn't lose......
"I don't believe it, you didn't write it, it definitely can't be you!"
Wu Fan turned his head and stared at Jia Baoyu deadly, muttering in his mouth.
Jia Baoyu didn't pay attention to him at all.
It is true that it was not written by Lao Tzu, but if you find evidence of Lao Tzu's copying, I will worship you as a teacher!
Xue Pan doesn't have any writing and ink, to be precise, he can't recognize all the words! However, he has eyes, and from everyone's reactions, he knows that Jia Baoyu must have written very well, so good that the second prince will judge Wu Fan for losing without reading Wu Fan's poems.
"Haha, tell you kid to be okay, now you know how powerful my brother is, right? Why don't you kneel down and call grandpa!! ”
As soon as Xue Pan's words came out, Wu Fan's body began to tremble again.
He is really afraid now, if he kneels today, he will never think about raising his head again from now on, even the entire Wu family will be ridiculed for this, and his sister, the sister who favors the sixth palace......
Can't kneel ......!
The second prince looked embarrassed, and said, "Brother Jia, look at today's events, can you ...... it?"
Before the second prince finished speaking, Jia Baoyu smiled and continued: "By the way, I don't think Gongzi Wu seems to be satisfied with His Royal Highness's judgment, too, as I said before, it is up to Miss Ye to judge which is better or worse." Therefore, I also ask Your Highness to order someone to send my work in and ask Miss Ye to judge, so that people will not think that Your Highness is favoring me. ”
At this time, someone had already read out Jia Baoyu's poem, and everyone present felt a chill in their hearts.
To be able to make such a shocking poem, it is needless to say that he has learned it, but he is so unforgiving that he doesn't even give face to His Royal Highness the Second Prince!
The two mansions are involved in the concubine, and those who originally had the attitude of watching the play still thought that in the end, most of the matter would be judged under the instruction of the second prince, and it might be resolved peacefully.
After all, since ancient times, there is no second in martial arts, and there is no first in literature. If it is not very different, it is difficult to judge the absolute merits and disadvantages.
But now, the second prince is afraid that there is no way to do this.
Thousands of blows are still strong, and the wind is blowing!
What tenacious, what a domineering verse.
It turned out that we all misunderstood the polite teenager in front of us. His people, like his verses, are rigid and straight through the sky.
Wu Fan is afraid that it will be difficult to pass the test today.
But is Jia Baoyu really a person who is unforgiving? At least, that's what the second prince thinks.
He's struggling. Although the Wu family doesn't have much foundation, Wu Fan's sister is a favorite concubine, he can't just give up because of such a trivial matter, right?
However, compared to the Wu family, the Jia family is obviously a force that he must not give up!
never expected that Jia Baoyu would have such talent. I knew that the confrontation between the two should be stopped before any matter what, since ancient times, most of the talented people have been rebellious, not to mention that Jia Baoyu is still so young.
Now it seems that Wu Fan is afraid that he will be offended ruthlessly, and among the two, he must make a choice.
"Wu Fan, admit defeat."
"Your Highness!"
Wu Fan looked at the second prince in disbelief, he didn't believe it, he had been saddled for him for so many years, was the other party ready to abandon him?
The second prince did not explain, but said: "You are also a person who knows poetry and music, and Brother Jia is better than you, this is a fact, is it, as a scholar, you don't even have this courage?" ”
Wu Fan lost his soul, and the manuscript of Jia Baoyu in his hand fell to the ground, he slowly turned around and said to Jia Baoyu: "I, I...... I throw in the towel......"
Jia Baoyu ignored him, and the second prince didn't look at him much, but also looked at Jia Baoyu, bowed his hand and said:
"Today's incident is Wu Fan's fault, I'm here, for him, it's not ...... for Brother Jia"
stopped Jia Baoyu's support, and the second prince continued: "It's just that the Jia Mansion and the Wu family are both famous nobles in Beijing, and it's really not good to turn the two families into feuds because of a little dislike between the children of the later generations!"
Therefore, please Brother Jia for the sake of my face, and bypass Wu Fan for the time being.
I promised Brother Jia that from now on, he would never dare to trouble Brother Jia again, if not, I would definitely not let him go, Brother Jia, may give me this thin noodles? ”
