Chapter 256: I Saw You Wrong
"I've seen Princess Xingyue."
Jia Qing stood up and saluted.
Princess Xingyue looked angrily at Jia Qing, who was guilty and embarrassed when she was caught lying at all, and was very annoyed:
"Okay, Miss Ben originally thought that you were just a bad-hearted and a bad guy, but I didn't expect you to be a bad guy who specializes in talking nonsense!
When did I want you to mount my little white rabbit? Hmph, just you, I don't like to be a mount for our little white! ”
Jia Qingdao: "What the princess said is very true, what the princess said is right......"
"You!"
Princess Xingyue was choked, so she naturally let go of the hand that grabbed Min Ning's ear, as if she was about to do it.
"Aunt Xingyue, please calm your anger, don't do it, this is the birthday banquet of the emperor, auntie, please think twice."
Min Ning looked like a dog, flatteringly pulled Princess Xingyue's arm and tried to persuade her.
Princess Xingyue shook off his hand impatiently and said coldly, "Who said I was going to do it?" ”
Then he looked at Jia Qing again, and said viciously: "Your name is Jia Qing?" Miss Ben remembers you, let's see! ”
After speaking, he walked in front of Jia Qing, Jia Qing smiled knowingly, and gently took half a step back with his left foot, avoiding a certain black foot that stepped on carelessly......
This kind of loss, it is enough to eat once.
After Princess Xingyue left, Jia Qing asked Min Ning the doubts in his heart: "Why does Princess Xingyue call himself Miss Ben?" ”
Min Ning took Jia Qing's chopsticks, took a piece of duck tongue with the other end, chewed it, and said casually: "This, she was playful when she was a child, so she loved to catch those little palace maids and little eunuchs to play together."
It's just that those people dare to play with her, one by one, they either kneel in front of her to plead guilty or kneel and tremble. For this reason, she was very unhappy for a long time.
Later, I didn't know where she came up with the method, so she asked people to bring her some little palace maids and eunuchs who had just entered the palace, and then she didn't call herself a princess, only called 'Miss Ben'. In this way, those palace maids and eunuchs who didn't know her identity dared to play with her slightly.
Later, when she got older, although she didn't do this kind of thing anymore, she preferred this title, so she simply called herself so.
The emperor spoiled her, and when he saw that she liked her, he naturally let her go. ”
I see!
It's really a big pit, Jia Qing is depressed, he has become a little eunuch who has just entered the palace......
The great feast continues. The bigwigs of the previous dynasty accompanied the two generations of emperors, and the ministers below talked and ate wine respectively, or enjoyed a rare court song and dance, and occasionally echoed the invitation of the front to raise a glass and drink together......
Drinking with the emperor is not so depressing and boring.
When the dishes were over the five flavors, the singers dancing in the court also changed several batches, and the emperor finally ordered the song and dance to be withdrawn, and the scene slowly became quiet.
Then, Jia Qing saw the Emperor at the top slowly stand up, and said in an old but still neutral voice:
"Today is my 80th birthday, and I am very happy. Taking this opportunity, I am very relieved to watch the pillars of our Dachu gather together and drink happily!
Let our monarchs and ministers drink this cup and wish our Great Chu Empire thousands of generations!
Drink to win! ”
The ministers who all got up when Emperor Taishang stood up, when they heard this, all bowed down and raised their glasses to the top, and said in unison: "I wish my emperor a long life, and I wish my Great Chu Empire thousands of generations and evergreen!" ”
After that, they all drank the wine in their cups.
The Emperor of the Ether stood up and said a few lines that were already quite close to the people, and after drinking the wine in the cup, he still sat back on the spacious and comfortable Dragon Court, and the maid tapped his shoulder.
Later, the Zongren Mansion ordered that Prince Zhuang, the younger brother of the Emperor Taishang, left his seat and said in a deep voice:
"Today is the birthday of the Emperor Taishang, and it is a day of celebration for the whole world, not only our civil and military officials, royal relatives, but also envoys from all the surrounding countries have come to congratulate him.
Among them was Prince Ale, from the Far North, thousands of miles away from the Russian Empire. ”
When the golden-haired prince heard Prince Zhuang mention him, and saw that the eyes of the people around him were focused on him, he stood up, bowed to the emperors above (including the Emperor Taishang), and then bowed to the back, and then said in his broken Chinese: "Hello everyone, my name is Alevich. Marseille Simok. Romanoff. You can call me Alet, or you can call me the Golden Retriever. ”
Although Jia Qing couldn't really hear the voice coming from the front, this did not prevent him from imagining how funny the scene was, and he laughed out loud.
Fortunately, the cultivation of the big man sitting at the front is better than Jia Qing, although there are many people with mocking smiles on their faces, and no one laughs out loud in the end.
The Golden Retriever Prince is simple, but not stupid (so it's okay to say that). Seeing that everyone did not seem to be impressed by his politeness, he sat down with a smile.
Prince Zhuang continued: "With the friendship of the Russian state, he presented two beasts (birthday) gifts to the emperor, and asked the emperor a question.
Now, I would like to invite Prince Alet to present a congratulatory gift and ask Prince Alet himself to tell us what his question is. ”
After Prince Zhuang finished speaking, everyone looked at the door of the main hall.
Soon, two pairs of little eunuchs carried two "big" gifts into the hall, but they were covered with red cloths, and they couldn't know what was inside for a while.
After the eunuch who carried the congratulatory gift to the palace went out, at the signal of the emperor, Prince Zhuang asked the golden retriever prince to come forward again to explain, and personally went down to uncover the cover.
Boom
It was actually a lion made of gold and emitted golden light. When Prince Zhuang unveiled the other, it was also full of golden light, but the shape was very different, and if you looked closely, it was actually an ice bear.
Jia Qing was also surprised, how much gold did it take to create such two big gold bumps, and they wouldn't be empty or adulterated......
"This is a lion and a bear, I know that in the Great Chu Kingdom, the lion is a powerful and ferocious animal, we made it out of pure gold, hoping that the Great Chu will always be as strong and fierce as the lion......
And in our Russia, the bear is the most powerful and brave animal.
We in Russia present these two things as a birthday gift to His Majesty the great Emperor Taishang, hoping that the friendship between our two countries will last forever. ”
Unexpectedly, this golden retriever prince looks stupid, and when it comes to speaking, it is really impressive! Although his Chinese is not standard, and the words are somewhat stiff and incoherent, they are very much in line with the habits of the Dachu people or the Chinese.
I have to say, it's not easy.
"As for the question I asked His Majesty the Emperor Taishang, that is, just say which one is bigger, the lion or the ice bear."
The Golden Retriever Prince said lightly.
When everyone heard that it was actually a comparison of size, who wouldn't? At the same time, he looked at the two congratulatory gifts worth 10,000 gold, and then, the relaxed state slowly disappeared.
The size of the two statues does not seem to be much different, but the most important thing is that the two are completely different in form, with different palms, feet, waists, and thighs. With such an irregular shape, it is really difficult to distinguish the difference between size and size with the naked eye.
At this time, I heard the golden retriever prince add: "Oh, they are not solid ......"
As soon as he said this, those who thought of comparing the weight were immediately blocked.
The hall fell into thinking for a while, for a long time, still no one came up with a way, and many ministers even showed shame on their faces, feeling that the courtiers of the great Chu were actually stumped by a prince of Fanbang, which was really embarrassing.
That's right, they just thought that the golden retriever prince was making things difficult and coming up with such a strange topic. Since the middle is not solid, and the outside looks different, and this is still a birthday gift for the emperor, who would dare to cut it open and measure it?
It's really insidious, ill-intentioned!
Thinking of this, the head of the courtiers, the head of the cabinet, He Shanbao's body moved, and he was about to get up, using his three-inch tongue to hide this embarrassing matter, but suddenly heard a young voice:
"Prince Ale, I always thought you were a smart person, who knows, you actually asked our Emperor Taishang a question that was so simple that a three-year-old child in our Great Chu Empire knew about it!
I was mistaken about you. ”
