The daughter of the dignified prime minister, the famous talented woman of Kongming, the current crown princess, is reading in her dormitory in the afternoon, no, it is to learn "Kindergarten Qionglin", this is definitely a big event, a very big event!

Because Fang Jinyin's reputation as a talented woman was not obtained empty-handed.

Guan Qi thought so, and the horror in her heart was even more irrepressible, she already had a guess in her heart, although there was no evidence, she could be very sure that it was true, because the crown princess who was in the Linghua Hall at this time, she really didn't look like Fang Jinyin...... But while Guan Qi was shocked in her heart, she was also very puzzled, she didn't understand how Fang Xiang dared to do this, or let such a person who was full of flaws come......

"In that case, you have to teach her well."

At this moment, a gentle male voice "woke up" watching chess.

The owner of the voice is a young man, handsome, with a posture like a bamboo, and his gestures are full of nobility that is not like ordinary people, but it also makes people have no trace of inferiority, it is the prince: Ning Hu.

Ning Hu listened to the report of watching chess, and also heard the hints outside her words, but the more hints of watching chess, the deeper the smile at the corners of Ning Hu's mouth and eyes, and even the movements in his hands were a little brisk, and after a while, a vivid lotus lamp took shape at his fingertips.

Guanqi listened to Ning Hu's instructions, and was even more surprised and puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask more, so he had to lean over and salute, and responded: "Yes." ”

Then, the chess watch went down with small steps.

Ning Hu looked at the lotus lamp in his hand, looked at the darkening sky outside the window, chuckled, pinched a candle from the lamp on the side, put it into the lantern, and then left the room with the lantern.

……

When night fell, there was only a touch of sunshine left in the sky.

Cheng Dongdong was a little tired from reading, so he came out for a walk, and happened to encounter a lotus lantern slowly floating down from the upstream in a flow canal. The workmanship of the lotus lantern is very good, much better than that of some vendors that Cheng Dongdong has seen in the past. The light of the river lantern was reflected on the surface of the water, floating in front of Cheng Dongdong's eyes, although it looked a little deserted, but it did not prevent his heart from lighting up in an instant.

The river lantern is a tradition handed down by Xiao Guo a long time ago, and Xiao Guo is located in the south, with many rivers and mountains, so Xiao people like to express themselves with river lanterns no matter what festival they have, what they want to celebrate, or miss and mourn their relatives.

Cheng Dongdong also liked to put river lanterns when he was young, especially in the summer evening, because in summer, there will be a lot of fireflies by the river. For this reason, Cheng Dongdong was scolded a lot when she was a child, but she "didn't change after repeated teachings", she didn't buy it, she made it herself, although it was ugly, but she was happy. In the end, her family had no choice, so they made up a lot of ghost stories for her to hear, and Cheng Dongdong was also very "competitive", not to mention going to put the lights on at night, she was scared even when she went to sleep. Although it is older now, it is still a burst of fear of the dark, like a convulsion.

At that time, I didn't dare to go at night, and I didn't have time during the day, so Cheng Dongdong rarely put the lights on his own after that, but occasionally put them with his family.

Now, this memory has been recalled, Cheng Dongdong is not homesick, but a little itchy.

"Crown Princess, this living canal is called the Lantern Canal, which was specially built by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to put lights, and the water in it is still drawn from the Yongyue River in the city." Guanqi saw Cheng Dongdong staring intently at the lotus lantern in the canal, so he introduced it loudly.

Cheng Dongdong looked back at Guanqi: "In other words, he put this river lantern?" Then this canal, is only he able to put the lights? ”

"It's not that only His Highness can put it, but this one should be put by His Highness." Guan Qi remembered that not long ago, Ning Hu had made an identical river lantern, so he replied truthfully.

Cheng Dongdong nodded, had an idea in his heart, and smiled: "Let's go back." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and led the chess to the direction of the Linghua Palace.

……

According to Cheng Dongdong's thoughts, since his heart is moved, he must take action, otherwise he will not be able to sleep well at night. It's a pity that she didn't have any materials around her last night and couldn't make a lamp, so she really didn't sleep well, and the first thing she did when she woke up in the morning was to ask Guanqi to find materials for her.

Guan Qi quickly sent someone to find a bunch of materials and piled them up in the hall.

It's a pity that although Cheng Dongdong has a heart, he can't do enough power, and after tinkering for a long time, he finally made a barely able to see one. But last night, Cheng Dongdong had already seen a good product, and now looking at the one in his hand, the gap is not small.

"Alas~" Cheng Dongdong looked at the lotus river lamp in his hand, thinking that he really looked down on himself.

At this moment, a maid walked quickly to Cheng Dongdong from outside the hall and said, "Princess, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come down." ”

Cheng Dongdong was stunned when she heard this, saying that she didn't remember that she had something to go out today, why did Ning Hu come here?

Just wondering, Ning Hu had already entered the hall, and at a glance he saw the river lamp in Cheng Dongdong's hand, and couldn't help but smile: "You want to put the lamp tonight?" ”

"Forehead......" Cheng Dongdong forgot to salute for a while, only glanced down at the river lantern in his hand, and felt more and more unsightly, so he put the lamp on the table, and got up to block it, "It's not, it's just playing, and now it's not very skilled." ”

Ning Hu saw that Cheng Dongdong's face was slightly embarrassed, so he couldn't help but smile and walked towards Cheng Dongdong: "I'll teach you." ”

"Huh?" Cheng Dongdong was stunned again, and didn't understand why Ning Hu was suddenly so enthusiastic, but what blurted out was, "You can make river lanterns?" ”

"Of course." Ning Hu selected one from a pile of materials on the table, "Come to think of it, you should have seen the river lantern I put last night, and I made it myself, I don't know if I am qualified to teach you?" ”

Cheng Dongdong was a little surprised, and at the same time a little surprised: "Of course Your Highness has." ”

Looking at the surprised smile on Cheng Dongdong's face, Ning Hu also showed a light smile from the bottom of his heart, gentle as light water, gentle as a spring breeze, and warm as the winter sun.

……

I don't know if Cheng Dongdong learned very quickly, or Ning Hu taught well, he only taught Cheng Dongdong once or twice, and she already mastered the essentials. Although it is still not as good as Ning Hu's, as long as it is practiced again, how can it meet the aesthetics of most people.

Cheng Dongdong looked at the river lantern in his hand, which looked much better than before, and was very happy in his heart: "If Your Highness wants to be a teacher, he will definitely be very popular." ”

Ning Hu was a little puzzled: "Why?" ”

"Because His Royal Highness is very good at teaching people, and ......" Cheng Dongdong's words suddenly paused.

"And what?"

Cheng Dongdong glanced at Ning Hu and hurriedly said, "It's nothing." Actually, she wanted to say: And His Highness is still so good-looking. But after thinking about it, Cheng Dongdong felt that this was not easy to say, so he gave up.

Seeing that Cheng Dongdong didn't say anything, Ning Hu didn't ask, but said: "It's always been others who teach me to read, and I haven't taught anyone else, how do you know that I can teach very well?" ”

This sentence stopped Cheng Dongdong, because Cheng Dongdong has always thought, to be precise, that the people on her side think that Mr. Teaching is capable of anything, and a good Mr. Teaching is someone who can explain some difficult questions, and the students he teaches learn things quickly. But Cheng Dongdong doesn't necessarily answer Ning Hu like this, right? And as she read and read, she gradually realized that it didn't seem to be like this.

After turning his mind around, Cheng Dongdong replied: "Draw inferences from one another, a little His Highness Hedeng can talk to me so well, then teaching shouldn't be bad." ”

Watching the chess from the side, he couldn't help but glance at Cheng Dongdong, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. But Ning Hu didn't hear anything at all, and there was still a light smile on the corner of his mouth: "That's not what you say, you learn quickly, the most important thing is that you are smart, and the most important thing in teaching is to educate people, just speaking well, that's not enough." As for me, I still like to use the word "sir" to call others respectfully. ”

Somehow, Cheng Dongdong remembered Mama Jin, from a certain point of view, she can be regarded as "educating people", right? It's just that Mama Jin is completing the task and cultivating herself to be another person, so she can't deserve the word "sir...... Speaking of which, this is the first time someone has said that she is smart.

"By the way, will you put the lights on tonight?"

Cheng Dongdong looked at Ning Hu, then looked at the lotus lantern in his hand, and subconsciously shook his head and said, "Oh, don't let it go, I'm really just playing." ”

Ning Hu didn't force himself when he saw this, he just got up to leave: "Then I'll take this lamp." ”

Cheng Dongdong nodded, and got up to send Ning Hu out of the palace gate.

Looking at Ning Hu's departing back, Cheng Dongdong kept comforting himself: I'm not timid, I'm not afraid, I'm not nervous, I just don't want to put the lights on with people I don't know, well, that's right...... That's it.
