Chapter 211: Pretense
"Today's future crown princess, Sister Meng, Sister Roujia, and the county lord of Yongfeng are all here, as well as King Guo and King Lu Jun, why don't we let our juniors perform their talents for the people here to enjoy and evaluate?"
Emperor Xuanyuan's eyes flashed slightly, he knew that this was the county lord of Changle who was not convinced, and wanted to see if the county lord of Yongfeng had real materials.
This also hit his heart, so he smiled: "Well, this proposal is good, it's rare to have a family reunion, you juniors should be entertained by colorful clothes!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, why don't we compare the four talents of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and Your Majesty will reward the winner." The county lord of Changle said again.
"It's fine." Emperor Xuanyuan agreed, and whispered something to the white father-in-law beside him.
Xue'er knew in her heart, or she had already prepared for it.
Although she didn't know why the Changle County Lord was targeting her, she could tell that the Changle County Lord's move was aimed at herself, because she saw obvious provocation in the eyes of the Changle County Lord looking at her.
She is not afraid of performing talents, but if she performs mediocre this time, she can't say it, after all, it is because of her own talent on the surface that she was named the lord of Yongfeng by Jinshang.
The "Three Character Classic" has now been listed as the enlightenment reading of the Daxi Dynasty, and the method of fixing broken bones in plaster has long been widely used in the army, and this time she presented to Emperor Xuanyuan also included the so-called self-compiled counting books.
Knowing that this was a conspiracy on the surface, she had to accept it happily.
Xuanyuan Che also saw that this was the Changle County Lord playing on the topic and wanted to test Xue'er, but he was very confident in Xue'er, so he didn't say anything to stop it.
He also wants the elders to know more about Xue'er and like her.
Empress Taishang asked, "How do you compare the law?" ”
"Back to Queen Taishang, Changle wants to decide a winner in every game, and then how about three wins in four games as the final winner?" The county lord of Changle was full of confidence.
"Okay, this is fair, you juniors can show their talents, and the winner will also be rewarded." Empress Taishang seemed to be very interested in this competition, and nodded in agreement.
"Imperial grandmother and grandson also want to participate." Xuanyuan Mo stood up and saluted.
"Okay, then add Mo'er." Empress Taishang agreed, she knew that her grandson would not have his own fiefdom in the future, and he could only be an idle prince for the rest of his life, so she was very spoiled and replied.
The crown prince and Xuanyuan Che glanced at each other, and they made eye contact with each other very tacitly.
When the crown princess was first chosen, the most important thing was to look at her character, family background and appearance, so I really don't know how many catties and taels of the Meng family are here.
As for the fact that this competition is aimed at the county lord of Yongfeng, everyone present seems to know it.
However, everyone unanimously wanted to see if the talents of Meng and Xue'er were real, so no one raised objections.
Except for Xue'er, all of you here have been vigorously cultivated by the family, so they didn't take this competition seriously at all.
However, Meng Shi and Xuanyuan Mo looked at Xue'er with some concern at the same time, for fear that this county lord from the people would lose face.
Xue'er received the other party's kind eyes and smiled back.
She stood up and said to the head of the blessing: "Your Majesty, I don't know if you can abstain?" ”
Without waiting for Emperor Xuanyuan to answer, the county lord of Changle smiled softly: "I heard that the county lord of Yongfeng is quite talented, why did he admit it at the critical moment?" Is it ......?"
Xue'er smiled at the Changle County Lord showing off her cleverness, and did not immediately refute, just waiting for her to finish speaking. It's just that people's words are only half of what they say and half of what they say, leaving room for imagination for everyone.
Seeing that Emperor Xuanyuan didn't seem to understand what he meant, Xue'er explained: "Yongfeng's meaning is not that I abstained from all four competitions, but that I am really not good at chess, so I want to abstain in the chess competition, and the other three Yongfeng will do his best to treat them, so His Majesty will smile." ”
"How can you be called a talented woman if you are not good at chess?" The county lord of Changle did not forgive.
Today's purpose is to make Xue'er ugly, that is, to make Xue'er retreat, how can she let Xue'er go?
Xue'er raised her eyebrows: "Yongfeng has never said that she is a talented woman. Besides, no one stipulates that if you are a talented woman, you must be proficient in all eighteen kinds of martial arts!
The so-called art industry has a specialty, and Yongfeng thinks he is still good at farming. As for the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, it is just used to cultivate sentiment in leisure time, and if you are not good at it, you are not good at it, and there is no reason to pretend to be stubborn. ”
Xue'er's words are soft and firm, no matter how good a person's temper is, she will be annoyed by being targeted all the time, not to mention that she herself is a soft character on the outside and strong on the inside.
Not to mention that although she has not been in contact with these royal people for a long time, she can also see that Emperor Xuanyuan and Xuanyuan Ancestor are not the kind of unreasonable kings, they are more affinity, and they will not use the butcher knife in their hands at every turn. Therefore, she was bolder.
Xue'er was like this in her previous life, she was very good at judging the situation, and she would not easily give in and sell herself because she had no willful power when she was working.
Everyone has a tolerance, and when they reach that limit, no matter how good their character is, they will show their claws.
What Xue'er didn't know was that her observation was indeed amazing, Xuanyuan Ancestor and Emperor Xuanyuan were not from the royal family at the beginning, and they still retained the affinity of ordinary people in their bones.
The idea of the supremacy of the monarchy is not so deep-rooted, so whether it is to treat the courtiers or the people, these two generations of emperors are more tolerant.
"Well, what Yongfeng said makes a lot of sense, and if that's the case, a single abstention is allowed." Emperor Xuanyuan admired Xue'er's honest attitude and allowed it with a smile.
The prince looked at Xuanyuan Che and said, "This Yongfeng county lord is a wonderful person, and the third brother didn't see the wrong person this time." ”
Xuanyuan Che smiled: "She is such a little lady, she seems to be easy-going and not aggressive, but once she is wronged, she will try her best to save face and get back on the field." ”
thought that he had learned about Xue'er and wanted to be angry with her, but when he saw her use her own way to impress Dong Changhe and his wife, he knew that Xue'er was definitely not as gentle and harmless as she seemed on her face.
The opening competition is the qin, the first to play is Xuanyuan Mo, his favorite is to dance and ink, usually when he is bored, he often delves into the qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, but the best is still chess, and the others are at the upper level.
He played a famous song "King Qin Breaking Array Music", this song is very appealing, majestic, and it is a famous military song of the previous dynasty.
Emperor Qu Ba commented: "The momentum is still a little worse, it seems that this is a battle that has not been fought on the battlefield, and it can't catch the soul of this song." ”
