Chapter 198: Disaster Relief

Princess Binglian stopped the pen in her hand, looked at him slightly, and asked very quietly: "Have you ever practiced calligraphy?" As far as I know, there are very few young people in your country who practice calligraphy, and almost all of them who can write a good character are over forty years old. I also saw a very vivid and apt sentence on the Internet, saying that many of you in Huaxia have ruined the good writing of many people in China! I see that you are very trendy and open-minded, I am afraid that you have never practiced calligraphy!"

Sneered and said: "Being trendy and open does not mean that we must give up tradition! Calligraphy is one of the quintessence of our Chinese country, and since I am studying Chinese language and literature, I am sorry for the major I have studied if I do not practice a good calligraphy! Besides, I am a qigong practitioner, and practicing calligraphy can be a good way to temper patience, temper will, condense thoughts, and cultivate sentiments, which is very helpful for practicing qigong. Therefore, I insisted on practicing calligraphy whenever I had free time, and I also had a little experience and experience, so I could learn from the princess. ”

When Princess Binglian saw that he was talking about calligraphy, her eyes lit up and her spirit was bright, so she handed him the brush and said, "Write a paragraph for me to see, preferably a poem, I like the poetry of your country more." ”

Sneering God knew that Princess Binglian was a simple girl who didn't have many sleek and sophisticated thoughts, so she didn't prevaricate, took the brush handed over by Princess Binglian, spread out a piece of rice paper on the table, and after a little thought, he wrote down the famous poem "Fortune Operator: Yongmei" by Lu You in the Song Dynasty: "Outside the post broken bridge, lonely and ownerless." It's already dusk and I'm alone, and it's even more windy and rainy. has no intention of fighting for spring, and a group of people are jealous. Scattered into mud and dust, only fragrant as before. ”

The reason why Seng Xiaotian wrote this poem is because Princess Binglian's pseudonym is Mei Yajie, and it is estimated that she likes plum blossoms very much. And I heard Sang Wu Dewang say: The princess has been very sad and lonely in her heart because of the loss of her lover for more than a year, which is exactly in line with the artistic conception described in Lu You's poem.

Sure enough, as soon as Princess Binglian saw him write this poem, her eyes were immediately filled with tears: the reason why she was named Mei Yajie was precisely because after losing her boyfriend, she fell in love with Lu You's sad and sad "Fortune Operator: Yongmei", almost every day at dusk, she had to chant this poem in the lonely palace, and every time she read the two sentences "It's dusk and I'm sad alone, and it's more wind and rain" and "It's scattered into mud and dust, only the fragrance is the same", there will be a feeling of breaking the liver and intestines......

Sneering Tian saw her staring at the poem on the paper stupidly, tears were rolling in her eyes, she was startled, and hurriedly asked, "Princess, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong with this poem I wrote?"

Princess Binglian wiped her tears, shook her head and said, "You write very well, not only is the calligraphy beautiful, but the words are also well chosen. I remember that a great man in your country once imitated this poem and wrote a poem with a completely opposite artistic conception, "Fortune Operator: Yongmei", which I heard my father recite many times, but unfortunately I can't remember it all of a sudden. Mr. Lai, do you know that poem?"

Sneering Tian nodded and said, "Remember." The poem reads: 'The wind and rain send spring back, and the snow welcomes spring.' It is already a cliff with a hundred feet of ice, and there are still flowers and branches. Pretty doesn't compete for spring, only reports spring. When the mountains were full of flowers, she laughed in the bushes. This poem is optimistic and heroic, which is indeed very different from the artistic conception of Lu You's poem. ”

Seeing that he didn't have to think about it at all, Princess Binglian opened her mouth to come, secretly admired in her heart, but her face was silent, and asked, "Mr. Li suddenly came to me, shouldn't he have come to talk to me about poetry and calligraphy!"

Sneering Tian nodded and said, "Of course, I do have something to tell the princess." In the morning I told the princess about taking you to a charity fundraiser, and this afternoon I have made it clear: the party will be a week later, and the place will be in my friend's clubhouse. My friend was glad to hear that you were going and gave you a warm welcome to the evening. ”

Princess Ice Lotus had a happy look on her face, but she asked a little worriedly, "You didn't reveal my identity to him, did you?"

"Of course not. I only said that you are a very good friend of mine, and I really want to meet Miss Ning Qing, but I don't say who you are. ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly wanted to make a joke about Princess Binglian, so he said, "In order not to let him doubt your identity, I told him that you are my girlfriend, and he actually believed it." Hehehe!"

Before his laughter fell, he saw Princess Binglian turn her face, and suddenly turned her head to the door and shouted, "Mei Lian, send off!"

Then, she turned her head to look at Sneer Xiaotian again, and said coldly, "Mr. Li, I hope you respect yourself." This is the princess's mansion of the Wangniza Jade Kingdom, and it is not a place where you can speak lightly. I won't be there at the party you said, you go and call your real girlfriend to go!"

Sneer Xiaotian didn't expect her to turn her face when she said it, and wanted to explain to her that she was joking, but saw her turn her face away and ignore him anymore.

When Mei Lian came in, she happened to hear Princess Binglian's last words, and guessed that Sneer Xiaotian must have made some excessive joke with the princess, so she pursed her lips and smiled, and made a gesture of invitation to Sneer Xiaotian.

Sneering God knew that it was useless to say anything now, so he had to swallow a mouthful of saliva and follow Meilian outside in embarrassment.

At the door of the villa, Mei Lian saw that Sneering Tian's expression was a little stupid, so she smiled and said softly: "Mr. Li, my princess has lived in the palace since she was a child, and she has always been serious in her words and actions, and she doesn't like to joke with people. Moreover, because she has lived in the palace since she was a child, she doesn't know much about basic human feelings, and when she is unhappy, she will show it in her looks and words, and she will not save face for others. Did you just joke with her?"

Sneer Xiaotian was embarrassed to tell her what kind of joke he was making, so he pretended to be indifferent and said: "I made a little joke with her, I didn't expect her reaction to be so big." In the end, it is a princess, and if you change your face, you will change your face, no wonder the ancient ministers had the feeling of 'accompanying the king like accompanying the tiger'. She's still a princess, and her temper is so capricious and elusive, and if she becomes a king in the future, won't it be even harder to serve?"

Seeing that he was full of complaints, Mei Lian smiled and persuaded him: "Mr. Li, our princess is not so difficult to serve, you may not know her personality." She was actually very nice to us maids, and rarely lost her temper with us. The joke you just made may have just touched her taboo, which is why she is so ruthless. I tell you, there are two things that the princess is not to joke about: one is about her ex-boyfriend, and no one can say anything about his shortcomings in front of her, even to comfort her. The second is about her finding a boyfriend again, and she must not mention it, let alone joke about which boy or classmate she is talking to, otherwise she will turn her face and deny people. Except for these two points, other aspects occasionally joke with her, and it's okay. I reckon Mr. Li must have made a joke with her that he shouldn't have made and violated her taboo just now—am I right?"

Sneer Xiaotian looked at Mei Lian, who was staring at him with a smile, as if he had been stripped naked in public, and his face turned even redder.

Seeing that he looked scared and red-faced, Mei Lian knew that she had guessed correctly, so she refused to say any more, and comforted him, saying, "You may have made this joke today just when you bumped into the princess and were most upset." You don't know: in the afternoon the princess received a call from His Majesty the King, saying that the disaster situation in the country was very serious, and that the treasury had no extra money left for disaster relief. Many of the victims were suffering from hunger and cold, and some opposition forces took advantage of rumors that the government had failed to respond to the disaster and took the opportunity to spread among the victims the talk of overthrowing the king and appointing a new monarch. His Majesty said that the situation would be much better if there was any other country that could urgently provide $100 million in disaster relief funds to buy food and necessities for the victims. For this reason, he also wanted to personally call the high-level of Huaxia Kingdom to see if he could donate another 100 million US dollars to the Wangnizha Jade Kingdom. It's just that Huaxia has provided assistance many times after the disaster, and His Majesty the King is not too embarrassed to call this helpline. When the princess heard the news, she was sullen all the time. And you just happened to make an inappropriate joke at this time, which is why she was so angry. ”

When Sneer Xiaotian heard this, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he hurriedly said to Mei Lian: "You go in and inform the princess, just say that I have something very important to talk to her, please make sure she sees me again." ”

Merlin looked at him in surprise, and seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, she hurriedly ran in to report.

It turned out that Sneer Xiaotian suddenly remembered that Jin Zhiqiang said that he was ready to use the 1.2 billion Hong Kong dollars at his disposal, if converted into US dollars, it would be about 150 million. This money is going to be donated for charity anyway, so why not take out 100 million US dollars from it to donate to Princess Ice Lotus to the Wangnizha Jade Kingdom?

Soon, Mei Lian came out of it and let Sneer Tian in.

Princess Binglian had stopped practicing calligraphy, sat on a rattan chair behind the desk, was looking up and frowning and thinking about something, when she saw Sneer Xiaotian coming in, she didn't get up, still reclining on the rattan chair, and asked lightly: "What else is important to Mr. Li? Could it be that he remembered some good poem again, and wanted to show off to me!"

Sneering Tian ignored her taunts, lifted the brown glasses on the bridge of his nose, and asked, "Are the princess and His Majesty the King worried about the disaster relief funds?"

Princess Binglian suddenly stood up from the rattan chair, looked at him with wide eyes, and asked, "Who are you listening to?"

Mei Lian didn't expect Sneer Xiaotian to come in to talk about this, seeing Princess Binglian turning her head angrily and glaring at her, her face turned red all of a sudden in a panic, and she didn't dare to deny it, so she had to nod silently.

Sneering Tiantian saw that Princess Binglian seemed to be about to reproach Mei Lian, and hurriedly said, "Princess, don't worry, I'm here to solve the problem of disaster relief for you." Don't blame Mei Lian yet, listen to me, okay?"
