Chapter 146: Chopping Firewood?
The fire of war that the two of them were about to ignite was extinguished at once, and Qi Qi turned his head to look at Ding Weilan.
"I didn't expect that in this palace, I had to chop wood by myself."
Mo Huaining shook his head and sighed, as if he was talking to himself, but it was full of sarcasm in Mo Lingfeng's ears, as if it was because he didn't arrange it well, Ding Weilan had to pick up the axe.
For a while, he was embarrassed and angry, and couldn't help but shout from afar.
"Ding Weilan!"
"Huh?" Ding Weilan turned his head and saw two people standing there, but one had a look on his face, and the other ...... His face was almost black.
"What's wrong?"
"Put the axe down!"
When there is no one in the palace? So many palace maids and eunuchs who are waiting can use her as a princess to chop firewood, so outsiders can see the joke!
But after he finished speaking, Ding Weilan just glanced down and didn't mean to put it down.
Mo Lingfeng took a deep breath, took two steps forward and directly snatched the axe, and threw it dozens of meters with a wave of his hand.
"Wait here, don't move!"
After saying this, Mo Ling walked out angrily, and it seemed that he had gone out to find someone.
Ding Weilan looked at the axe thrown into the corner, frowned, and muttered "inexplicable".
When he turned his head, he saw Mo Huaining still standing in the position just now, looking at the door with a smile, thinking that the two of them were together just now, Ding Weilan asked, "Uncle Huang, what did you just say?" ”
"Things between men, you don't have to know."
“……”
"What do you do with an axe?"
Mo Huaining walked over slowly, came to Ding Weilan's approach, and looked around at the same time, in addition to the verdant trees and the palace walls of green bricks, where is there any firewood to be chopped, in the end, it is the palace, not the courtyard of the farmhouse.
He just casually provoked it just now, and the little prince was fooled.
"Oh, it's Qingying......"
Halfway through her words, she suddenly pointed behind Mo Huaining, "Now, it's here." ”
Qing Ying walked over with a tangled face, and saw two people, first bent her knees at Mo Huaining, and then turned to Ding Weilan.
"Miss......" The voice was full of grievances.
Ding Weilan pointed in the direction where he had thrown the axe just now, "There." ”
Qing Ying nodded, turned around and walked over quickly, and after a while, she returned with an extra axe in her hand.
"Miss, what should I do?"
She looked at Ding Weilan a little helplessly, and the next moment she saw Ding Weilan take the axe, bend her arm, hold the axe and cycle it up and down a few times, and then hand it back to Qingying.
At the end, he patted Qingying on the shoulder, "Come on!" ”
"Hmm!" Qing Ying was stimulated, her eyes became firm, and she began to imitate Ding Weilan's movements just now.
Up and down, up and down, waving very hard, after a while, a layer of fine sweat appeared on the top of Qing Ying's head.
"Yes, that's it, keep up the good work!" Ding Weilan didn't forget to cheer her up on the side.
Mo Huaining watched from the side, and suddenly felt that this scene was a little familiar, isn't this the scene when his subordinates were practicing, but what they were holding in their hands were dozens of catties of lead, this small axe...... That's why the girls used it to scare people.
So, did she just bring the axe just for this girl's exercise?
Well, I don't know how many people the little prince will call in later.
The expression in Mo Huaining's eyes changed for a moment, and finally showed some schadenfreude.
"Qingying said that she has not had much strength since she woke up, I think her muscles have degenerated after lying down for too long, so let her move, but here, there doesn't seem to be anything to take advantage of......"
Ding Weilan explained beside him.
Mo Huaining understood, but it would be a little weird to think about a person holding an axe and waving it up and down.
"Why don't you try this?"
Mo Huaining said, a hand stretched out from the wide sleeve, and there was a magically more iron ball with a diameter of about ten centimeters in his hand.
"What is this?"
Ding Weilan glanced at it curiously, and saw that it was not very large, so he took it tentatively.
The corners of Mo Huaining's mouth hooked up a smile, and he was caught off guard.
The next moment, the iron ball smashed down uncontrollably, and after touching Ding Weilan's hand, it didn't slow down at all, and fell down at a very unscientific speed.
"Ahh
Ding Weilan exclaimed, she didn't have time to think about it, she felt that her hand was about to become the meat pad of the iron ball, and suddenly her hand was light, and the iron ball returned to Mo Huaining's hand.
"It still seems too heavy, you should play with the hammer."
"You ......" Ding Weilan's face turned red, half frightened, half because of Mo Huaining's ridicule, she was about to say a few words, but was attracted by Mo Huaining's fluttering appearance with an iron ball, "How did you do it?" ”
Mo Huaining accepted the iron ball and said lightly, "Replace this king's dish with whole meat, and this king will tell you." ”
“……”
Mo Lingfeng walked around the palace, and when he came back, he still felt angry, it stands to reason that the palace should be his home field, how could he easily be found by the imperial uncle, it was all to blame Ding Weilan's woman, who was idle and had nothing to chop firewood.
Why don't you let him help chop enough at once, and then throw the axe away!
Mo Lingfeng turned his head and looked at the guards behind him who were neatly lined up in two rows, walking with a serious face, and couldn't wait to fly to the Yongning Hall in one step now.
The guards behind them had serious expressions and confused hearts.
King Qi hurriedly gathered them together, at first they thought there was something important, but when they inquired, they found out that they were actually going to chop wood for Princess Qi.
Firewood!
Just kidding, they are the guards carefully trained by the emperor, and they use them to chop firewood, isn't it a knife to kill chickens.
No, this must not be known to the other guards, otherwise they will definitely find an excuse to come and laugh at it.
Therefore, even though they knew the purpose of this trip, they still maintained a majestic and high-spirited attitude on their faces, as if they were going to fight to the death with the enemy country, and stomped the ground to the sky.
If people who don't know the truth hear this sound, they will think that there is an earthquake.
However, when they actually arrived at the Yongning Palace, there were no piles of firewood waiting for them as they imagined, only a thin and delicate girl, holding a rough wooden-handled axe, waving it up and down.
The guards stood in the courtyard and glanced at each other, and the girl had the axe they were going to use later......
Mo Lingfeng also saw it sharp-eyed, but he just ...... I always feel weird.
"Hey, Mo Lingfeng, what did you do just now?"
With so many people, it naturally attracted Ding Weilan's attention, she glanced at the guards behind her, glanced at Mo Lingfeng strangely, and then pulled him aside and lowered her voice, "Hey, don't bring you like this, bring so many people to eat, then you can't tire me to death!" ”
The corners of Mo Lingfeng's mouth twitched, who is here to eat? It's the one who stands under the tree and watches the excitement!
He had to explain.
"Chopping wood?"
Ding Weilan looked around.
"Where is the firewood here?"
Mo Lingfeng was stunned for a moment, and then took a look around, and sure enough, he saw that the yard was empty, not to mention firewood, and there were few trees.
So, isn't it chopping wood......
Looking at Qing Ying, who was still wielding an axe over there, Mo Lingfeng suddenly felt a little stupid.
The guard over there was still talking to himself in a voice that he could hear clearly.
"There's just an axe here, how will we divide it in a moment?"
"Guess the box."
"It's troublesome to guess boxing, let's draw lots."
"Why don't you just line up and take turns."
"The prince is so considerate of us, it takes so many people to chop firewood, I think I can do it alone."
"I think so."
"I think so."
"Yes, the prince is indeed making a bit of a fuss."
"When chopping wood for a while, find two people to go to the door to watch the wind, such a shameful thing must not be seen by others."
……
Mo Lingfeng listened to these words word for word, his face turned from black to red, and a huge sense of shame surged in his heart.
Turning his head and glaring, the group of guards who were busy discussing how to distribute the axes were immediately silenced.
"What are you doing with an axe!" Mo Lingfeng yelled at Ding Weilan in a low voice.
Ding Weilan said that she was wronged, "It was Qingying who felt weak after waking up, so I found something for her to exercise." ”
"You...... I'm really angry with this king! ”
Mo Lingfeng flicked his sleeves at Ding Weilan, and didn't forget to glare at her when he left.
So now the question is, how to euphemistically explain to this group of guards that the matter of the axe will not make him lose face too completely.
This problem is not easy to solve, so after Mo Lingfeng returned to the crowd, he remained silent, and because the oolong just now felt that he had lost face, and his face was not very good, the guards were so excited from the beginning that they were inexplicable, and they were a little frightened in the end, Lord Wang, this is ...... What's wrong?
Qing Ying wiped the sweat on her forehead, feeling a little overwhelmed, why did so many people suddenly come here, and they seemed to be looking at her, did she have something on her face?
Being stared at by a group of people, Qing Ying was a little uncomfortable, and she happened to be tired herself, so she was ready to put down the axe and rest for a while.
Only a "dang" sound was heard, and the axe fell to the ground.
"Don't stop!"
Mo Lingfeng's voice sounded at the same time.
Qing Ying was startled, and quickly bent down to pick it up again, but she didn't know what to do, so she looked at Mo Lingfeng with an axe in a daze.
Ding Weilan and Mo Huaining also cast their eyes over, wanting to see what Mo Lingfeng wanted to do, but Mo Huaining was more in the mood of watching the play, watching how he came back.
Under the gaze of a crowd, I saw Mo Lingfeng take a few steps to the side, turn sideways, and speak loudly.
"Do you know why the king called you here today?"
"It's not a split...... Hmmm! ”
One of them was about to speak, but the person next to him quickly covered his mouth.
What nonsense, don't you see the eyes of the prince and be able to kill?
Mo Lingfeng retracted his warning eyes and continued, "You are all guards in the palace, and you are directly under the management of your father, so it stands to reason that even if there is anything inappropriate, this king should not be in charge, but there are some things that this king really can't stand it." ”
Hey, you're starting to teach people?
Ding Weilan had a big question mark on his head, very puzzled.
At the same time, there are also the guards, didn't they say chopping wood, why did they suddenly go crazy, could it be that they did something wrong, so they deceived people to teach them a lesson? Don't play like this!
Mo Huaining watched this scene leisurely, completely out of the way, and had nothing to do with me.
At the same time, Mo Lingfeng spoke again, "Recently, the palace has been peaceful, there have been no assassin killers, and your task is only to stand guard and be on duty, even if your martial arts are not strong enough, you are completely competent, so one or two of you are slack, and when you change shifts, you either doze off or gather people to gamble, in this way, how can you be a good palace guard?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the guards present all lowered their heads, they admitted that they were usually a little lax, but they didn't throw away their martial arts at all, but the emperor would regularly pick out some people for training, and they just happened to be the part that was not selected.
Anyway, sooner or later it will be their turn, what's the hurry, it's better to be happy and happy now, but I didn't expect to be scolded by King Qi, and everyone said that they would be unhappy all of a sudden.
At the same time, I also understood why the prince let them watch the maid holding an axe, yes, a maid knows how to exercise to protect her master, these carefully trained guards are really incompetent!
A group of people all looked like they were going to slap themselves twice, Mo Lingfeng breathed a sigh of relief, and the expression on his face remained unchanged.
"Why did you bring you here, I don't need to say more about this king, right?"
