"Ahh Ahh Prince Zheng Wuer Gonga applauded and laughed, and then kept waving to Su Xiaoliu. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Lord Wang," Yuman asked beside him, "do you want him to come over?" β
Prince Zheng nodded, pointed at Su Xiaoliu and gestured for a long time, "Ah, ah".
At this time, the two side Fujin and the five Fujin who were sitting on both sides of Prince Zheng according to the rules of the palace all looked at this side, Yuman knew that this moment was very important, although he understood what Prince Zheng "said", but he did not make it clear to everyone, but stood up and instructed the eunuchs of the palace:
"The prince has an order: please invite the four flyover artists to come forward, and the prince will be rewarded!"
"Huh!" The deacon's eunuch stepped forward and saluted, then walked to the shore and shouted loudly to Su Xiaoliu's side: "Please invite the four Tianqiao artists to come forward, the prince will be rewarded!" β
Just as the cross talk on Su Xiaoliu's side also came to an end, he and Shen Chunhe bowed to the opposite bank, and then walked along the stone fence corridor on the surface of the pool, Zhang Sanlu and Zhu Shaowen were waiting for them on the shore, as soon as they met, Zhu Shaowen quipped: "I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet?" Our sixth master often walks by the river, and his shoes are wet when he comes back! β
Zhang Sanlu saw Su Xiaoliu's wet new shoes, and couldn't help laughing: "I originally thought that the set poem was smashed, but I didn't expect you to come for real!" Good guys, such a big bubble! I knew I would have let you go to the toilet first! β
"Our sixth master has been a bit angry lately," Shen Chunhe also joked, "The original new black-faced and white-soled cloth shoes, your soak of urine has turned yellow!" Fortunately, that old Fujin is gone, otherwise she would have to say that you are wearing bright yellow cloth shoes without permission, and you are guilty of 'trespassing' in the Qing Dynasty! [Note (1)]
[Netizen]: Haha, these three cross talk ancestors are shaking their burdens all the time!
[Netizen]: They seem to be born optimists, and they are not afraid of anything!
[Netizen]: If you are with them every day, I don't know what it will be like to be happy!
[Netizen]: Isn't this prince already rewarded with five hundred taels of silver, what will he reward this time?
[Netizen]: I think, isn't it time for this prince to admit his relatives!
[Netizen]: Yes, Su Xiaoliu is not the son of the world, he has tossed this half-old man for a long time, and he should admit it!
[Netizen]: That prince is also very funny, first listen to Xiaoliu's cross talk, and then decide whether to deny him, isn't the cross talk funny, so he won't admit it?
[Netizen]: Ha, I can't think it's reliable to recognize Xiaoliu as his son's prince!
Zhang Sanlu and the others laughed and made fun of Su Xiaoliu while walking. Su Xiaoliu didn't talk back, and after they left for a while, Su Xiaoliu suddenly asked, "When will the five hundred taels of silver be given?" The guard just asked me to pay for my shoes, don't make it impossible to give it today, people are chasing me for money, it's so shameless! β
"Just your cross talk with flowing water today," Zhang Sanlu said with a smile, "Where do you want to save face?" β
"Haha," Zhu Shaowen and Shen Chunhe laughed together, "Don't be scolded!" β
The four of them talked and laughed and came to the bottom of the platform on Prince Zheng's side, and when the deacon's eunuch saw them standing still, he shouted loudly: "Kneel-"
"Kneel again?" Su Xiaoliu was very reluctant, but he was pulled by Zhang Sanlu and still knelt down.
The deacon and eunuch shouted again, "A prostrationβ"
"I'll wipe it," Su Xiaoliu was kowtowed to the back of his head by Zhang Sanlu again, but his mouth was still complaining, "Is this the rhythm of worship?" β
The deacon and eunuch carried out in a low voice: "Riseβand kowtowβ"
Kowtowed three times in a row, and the deacon eunuch shut up, Su Xiaoliu thought that it was finally over, and was just about to raise his legs to stand up, but he was pulled down by Zhang Sanlu, Su Xiaoliu asked softly, "What are you doing?" Isn't it over? β
"Gentlemen," Zhang Sanlu reminded in a low voice, "kneel down first, and wait for the prince to speak." β
"Alas!" Su Xiaoliu knelt down again in frustration, "I'm still in a hurry to change my pants!" β
The sixth princess Yueling saw Su Xiaoliu kneeling there in the back, rubbing left and right like lice on her body, and couldn't help laughing: "This dead little six, wearing a coat on the stage, still looks good, how can he become like a monkey when he gets off the stage, he doesn't sit or stand!" β
Wang Yicheng also smiled and said: "I heard the Queen Mother say that our Prince Zheng was also so unreliable when he was young, and later he became better!" β
"Fifth brother," Yue Ling frowned, "I really can't figure it out, how can this Su Xiaoliu be the son of Prince Zheng?" Could it be an illegitimate child outside? β
"It's not an illegitimate child," said King Xuanjun, shaking his head, "There are many unknown reasons for this, let's see how they recognize each other, and I'll tell you more about it later!" β
"Okay," Yue Ling suddenly thought of something, and asked again: "By the way, fifth brother, yesterday you and your sister invited Su Xiaoliu to Eyu's house to talk about cross talk, in fact, it was not really to let me listen to cross talk, but to protect him?" β
"That's right," the king nodded, "This matter involves many factions in the imperial court, and the stakes are very high, I originally thought that I would get this Su Xiaoliu to be protected by the fifth forehead first." But I didn't expect you to be so playful and secretly get him away without saying hello! β
"Humph!" Yueling heard him complain about himself, and was extremely dissatisfied, "Who told you not to tell me in advance?" This little six arranged me so much yesterday, it's not bad that I didn't castrate him as a eunuch! β
"You," shook his head helplessly, and sighed, "You're about to get married, and you're still so tempered, how can your Fucha family's forehead stand you then?" β
Yue Ling slammed the tea bowl on the table and said angrily: "I don't want to marry into the Fucha family!" A few of you who are elder brothers, knowing that I don't want to enter the door of Fucha's house, but you don't say a word for me in front of Huang Ama! Now, you're still saying things like that! β
"Good, good, good!" The king of the county was busy appeasing this rude sister, "Today, isn't it time to talk about this matter, first see that Prince Zheng recognizes his relatives, okay?" β
"Wait for the confession," Yue Ling looked reluctant, "You go and tell the Queen Mother that they will send Su Xiaoliu to me on an errand!" β
"Huh?" King Xuanjun was stunned, "He is from the royal family, how can he be sent to you on an errand?" β
"Then I don't care," Yue Ling pouted, "I just want him to come to me on an errand!" β
"Why do you have to look for him?" "This kid is far inferior to your gentle little henchman?" β
"That's it!" Yue Ling said stubbornly, "This princess is not married well, can't you find him to have a good time?" β
"Yes," King Xuanjun patted his chest and said coaxing and deceiving, "This matter, I'll help you tell the Queen Mother, you stop for two days first, and stop messing around, okay?" β
"Then," Yue Ling tilted her head and said with a smile, "Look at Princess Ben's mood!" β
At Prince Zheng's side, four eunuchs each stepped forward with a lacquered wooden tray, which was covered with a red flannel cloth, and inside it was bulging with some gifts.
"I rewarded the silver just now," Su Xiaoliu said secretly, "It's time for the gold now, right?" I don't know what the price of gold in the Qing Dynasty was? One gram, no, how much does a tael of gold be exchanged for? β
[Netizen]: Xiaoliu is obsessed with money again!
[Netizen]: In the Qing Dynasty, gold was money, one of the currencies in circulation, it could be used as money, what else to exchange!
[Netizen]: Is it gold to say two things, look at Xiaoliu's eyes of wealth, as if he can guess things on the partition!
[Netizen]: It should be gold, or some kind of jade or something, this prince must not come out with something good!
[Netizen]: Maybe take out half of the jade pendant, and have to pair it with the other half of Su Xiaoliu, this kind of plot costume drama is common!
[Netizen]: What you said upstairs makes sense, maybe you will look at the birthmark on Su Xiaoliu's body or something!
[Netizen]: Wow, you guys haven't watched any costume dramas!
"Reward-" The deacon eunuch finally began to distribute gifts, "Ladies and gentlemen, a folding fan, two lake pens, an inkstone, a fan pendant, and a hand stove γ......"
"Rub," Su Xiaoliu was deflated when he heard it, "It's all small things, what about the gold?" β
[Note (1)]: In the Qing Dynasty, bright yellow clothes were exclusive to the emperor, unless the emperor specifically rewarded them, anyone who wore bright yellow clothes would be punished as "trespassing".
