Chapter 234: Mid-Autumn Festival Family Banquet (7)
The concubines in the middle read a few more poems, and the last one who stood up was a concubine dressed in plain clothes
The slender figure, the face is as white as snow, but it seems to be a little weak, and he is not holding a wine glass in his hand, but he is holding a bowl of tea, although Meiyu is smiling, it leads to a faint sorrow and hatred that cannot be concealed, and that slight morbidity is especially better than Xizi
With his sleeves hanging down, he put a piece of plain assorted food in his mouth, but he looked sideways, but he saw the crescent moon staring at Kangxi with a resentful face
He looked up at Kangxi in confusion, and saw that he was quietly laughing with the crown prince Yinren, and there was nothing wrong, but he didn't know why the crescent moon suddenly showed such resentment
I only heard the concubine speak: "Twenty-four bridges, where is the jade man teaching, on a bright moonlit night," and coughed lightly twice, the voice was gentle but extremely low, and the first half of the sentence was almost inaudible, and only the second half of the sentence could barely be heard
Xiaozhuang He said with a smile: "If the concubine is unwell, don't drink, replace it with tea," the concubine thanked and sat down slowly
At this time, the week had been completed, Kangxi originally wanted to end the game, but he heard the crown prince Yinren next to him say: "I'll say a word too"
Yinren said and thought for a moment and recited: "Tonight, in the moon boudoir of Junzhou, I only look at the children who are pitiful and do not understand the memories of Chang'an."
The ministers who sat down all praised Kangxi for flattering the prince, but he frowned slightly and asked displeasedly: "Why don't you pick a poem with some spirit, although this poem is good, it's just that the fat powder is too heavy and doesn't fit the prince's demeanor."
When the prince heard this, he hurriedly lowered his face and thought about it, and among the courtiers below, there were those who wanted to help, because he knew that Kangxi had always been strict with the prince, and he didn't like others to protect his shortcomings, and the prince was far away from the upper seat, and shouted loudly, for fear that Kangxi would be displeased, so he had to give up
The prince thought about it for a while, but he couldn't come up with anything after all, and he was already in high spirits just now, but now he was hanging his head
When Kangxi saw this, he thought that today was a festival, and it was not good to make the prince too ugly in front of the ministers, so he was afraid of hurting his self-esteem, so he smiled and said: "Actually, I thought that the two sentences 'the sand is like snow before returning to the peak, and the moon is like frost outside the city' are very good."
Yinren saw that Kangxi's face was pleasant, and he didn't seem to blame, his mind relaxed, his mind was also bright, and he suddenly remembered a sentence and hurriedly said: "Erchen also has 'all the joy and prosperity, and wants to fly to the blue sky and catch the bright moon'" Kangxi bowed his head happily when he heard this
Xiaozhuang said with a smile: "My imperial grandson's schoolwork has benefited again, come to Taizu to reward a mouthful of delicious food," and then sent a piece of jade yellow croaker meat dipped in ginger and garlic soup into Yinren's mouth
The corners of Yinren's chewing mouth flowed with oil, and Xiaozhuang wiped it with a silk handkerchief in pain, and his sleeves were still calm, and he looked sideways, and his face was still calm, and he seemed to be quite displeased
Huai Sleeve thought that she was a child, and saw that Xiaozhuang loved Yinren a little more, and she was a little more annoyed by being snubbed, and then thought that the character of the crescent moon was never good at jealousy, but at this time, she was depressed, and she couldn't understand the reason, so she only sandwiched a piece of sugar ear snacks and put it in the small dish of the crescent moon
The crescent moon originally had a calm face, and when she saw her sleeves and pulled out a line of laughter in front of her cloth vegetables, she was originally straight, and she wouldn't hide her thoughts, and this smile was even more ugly than not laughing
"Why did someone annoy you," Huai Sleeve couldn't help but ask in a low voice
The crescent moon only shook her head, and there was a sadness in her eyes, and she was about to continue to ask when she suddenly heard a person in the seat opposite standing with a cup in her hand
The man smiled and looked at the table with his sleeves and said: "The old minister heard that the crescent princess has changed the princess teacher, and she is actually a woman, and she always wants to have time to visit and ask for advice, but she has never seen it, and today she has a noble temperament, and I feel very fortunate to be contemptible."
Everyone followed the prestige to pass, and this person was Yan Bingzhi of the Hanlin Academy
This Yan Bingzhi was originally a student of the crown prince Chen Tingjing, because during a window class, Kangxi saw that he was rigorous in his studies and liked both poetry and writing, and he appreciated it very much, so he was promoted to the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and also the Chinese teacher of the crescent princess
Princess Hou Yue didn't like this Bachelor Yan's rigid and dull lecture style, and asked Kangxi several times, and finally resigned from the teacher, in fact, it was the student who fired the teacher
This incident caused this very good-looking Han Confucian corrupt scholar to lose face once, and since then he has often been used by his colleagues in the Hanlin Academy
Recently, this Yan Bingzhi heard that the emperor had hired a new princess teacher for the crescent princess, and it was a woman, and he was even more dissatisfied, and always wanted to take the time to learn the skills of this princess teacher
Today's banquet saw that the sleeves were only in her teens, and the more she was upset, she stood up, although it was in the name of toasting, but the provocative taste in the words had already been smelled by everyone
Huai Sleeve originally wanted to participate in this banquet, but he went back after seeing the excitement, who expected that such a person would appear in the middle of the way, and this Yan Bingzhi Huai Sleeve had already heard of the Crescent Moon Princess mentioned it many times, knowing that he might have true learning in his abdomen, only his temperament was slightly pedantic, and he was praised by Kangxi himself, so he couldn't help but bring out some arrogance in his speech
Huai Sleeve knew that he had been disgraced because of the crescent moon refusing to attend his class, and his heart was unfair, but he did not expect that to this day, he still remembered this matter in his chest, and wanted to borrow himself to move back the face that had been swept away, and his heart couldn't help but be funny and helpless
He got up with his sleeves and raised his rose dew to Yan Bingzhi and smiled: "The little woman has heard that Lord Yan is full of poetry and books, and often hears the princess's praise for Lord Yan's teachings, and I also want to find an opportunity to pay a visit, take advantage of this feast, and the little woman respects Lord Yan."
After that, she raised her glass and did it first, she was not afraid of Yan Bingzhi's provocation, but she was unwilling to show her head and face on the occasion of the day, and first respected her with words, so as to calm things down
"Contemptible people often hear that others praise the princess teacher very well, and today I want to learn the princess teacher, so don't be too humble."
Yan Bingzhi's eyes were burning and staring at Huai Sleeve, although Huai Sleeve had already drunk a glass of himself, Yan Bingzhi always only held the wine glass, took a sip, and his disdain was revealed
At this time, the crescent moon also heard Yan Bingzhi's meaning, and was about to get up to argue for Huai Sleeve, and his shoulder was suddenly pressed by Huai Sleeve with one hand, and the crescent moon was sitting on the chair when he landed
Huai Sleeve still smiled politely: "I don't know what Lord Yan has to teach today"
Everyone never expected that the little woman with her sleeve would dare to openly accept the provocation of the Hanlin Scholar, and they were all surprised and secretly admired her courage
Rong Ruo was surprised, Huai Sleeve has always been low-key, always thinking about avoiding disputes, how could he be so happy today, so he agreed to this Yan Bingzhi
Although he didn't have much intersection with this scholar of the Hanlin Academy on weekdays, since this person could enter the Hanlin Academy, he naturally thought about it more carefully than the ministers next to him, and couldn't help but worry about it
