Chapter 18 Wood Carved Rabbit

"Mother, when I carve this rabbit, you will send someone to help me send it to Chang'an!" Xiao Yu begged his mother.

This is the first time that Princess Zhong has seen Xiao Yu so stubbornly wanting to do something, and she must not be able to refuse, Princess Zhong smiled and admitted: "Okay, my mother will send someone to help you send it." ”

After Prince Zhong left, Xiao Yu was engrossed in carving, and after a while, he felt that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and he was drowsy.

When he was about to fall asleep, Xiao Yu was excited, stretched out his hand and patted his cheek, and said to himself: "No, I will carve it ......" Xiao Yu said, picked up the knife and continued to carve, he wanted to carve it as soon as possible, so that it could be sent to Chang'an, such a lively and cute rabbit, it is too similar to Chang'an, he believes that Chang'an will like it.

Just thinking about it, Xiao Yu only felt a tingling pain in his fingertips, and when he looked down, the dagger slashed his hand, and the wound was bleeding out...... Xiao Yu hurriedly dropped the dagger, blew straight into the injured finger, his eyes were red, and he couldn't help but read in his mouth: "It hurts, it hurts......"

Xiao Yu looked at the unfinished rabbit, endured the pain, picked up the dagger again, continued to carve it, and constantly hinted to himself: "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt...... I'm going to have to carve this rabbit well! It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt! Xiao Yu relied on this energy to continue to carve the wood in his hand.

Xiao Yu finally carved the rabbit, and Prince Zhong immediately sent someone to send it to the Rong'an Hou Mansion, not only that, but in the next few days, Xiao Yu sent the things he thought were fun and fresh to the Rong'an Hou Mansion, and also named them to give them to Xie Chang'an.

The Lin family was so frightened that they were restless, and they had clearly announced that Xie Changan was missing, but why did this little prince of the loyal prince say that he wanted to give these things to An'er? Puzzled, Lin carefully examined the objects that had been sent: a rattle, a carved rabbit, and a straw cricket...... It's all children's stuff, and it's not very valuable.

Lin Shi breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the rattle and shook it gently, thinking that he heard from his subordinates that Xiao Gongzi Xie and An'er had a very happy conversation that day, and it would be good if these things were sent to Chang'an to relieve boredom. Thinking of this, she asked the maidservant to send her to Xie Chang'an's room.

Xie Changan looked at the things sent by his subordinates and wondered, "This is?" ”。

Hearing this, Li Bai replied: "Miss Hui, these objects were sent to you by the young prince of Prince Zhong's mansion. ”

Xie Chang'an, a woodcarved rabbit at a glance, picked it up and played with it, and asked seemingly casually: "Give it to me?" Is it really Xie Chang'an and not Xie Changning? ”

Li Bai smiled and said, "Miss, I don't dare to deceive you, when Prince Zhong's mansion came, the slave maid happened to be on the side." ”

Xie Changan nodded, and then asked his subordinates to withdraw.

Xie Changan looked curiously at the wood carving rabbit in his hand, and at a glance, he knew that the carving technique was slightly clumsy, the place where the dagger had been sharpened was rough, and it looked a little pitted.

Xie Chang'an knew in his heart, this must have been carved by Xiao Yu himself, and he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, Xiao Yu was stupid, I think he understands life better than others, it is one thing to know how to repay kindness, but this pure heart is commendable. Xie Changan never thought that Xiao Yu would regard her as so important, and the feeling of being cared for and cared for was very good.

Outsiders don't know, but Prince Daozhong's Mansion has been giving gifts to the Marquis of Rong'an Mansion in recent days, and rumors have spread for a while, no, even the emperor knows about it.

The emperor privately summoned the king of Yanjun and the prince of Zhong.

King Yanjun and Prince Zhong couldn't guess why the emperor summoned them, but they just bowed their heads and didn't dare to say anything.

Seeing this, the emperor spoke: "Prince Zhong, King Yanjun, you are both my cronies, but recently, how did I hear some bad rumors, Prince Zhong, this Prince Zhong's Mansion has recently sent a lot of gifts to the Rong'an Hou Mansion!" The emperor kept a strained face, not angry, but mighty.

Prince Zhong couldn't cry or laugh, he didn't want to tell the emperor that Xie Chang'an, the discredited Xie Changan of the Xie family, had saved Xiao Yu, and said with a forced smile: "Back to Your Majesty, it's just a naughty joke of Weichen's son......"

The emperor didn't know what he meant, and after thinking about it for a while, he remembered that Miss Xie of the Marquis of Rong'an Mansion was the first talented woman in the capital, and she looked like a fairy, could it be that this Xiao Yu also coveted the eldest lady of the Xie family?

The emperor was self-righteous, glanced at King Yanjun meaningfully, and joked: "King Yanjun, it seems that someone wants to rob your family of daughter-in-law!" Miss Xie is really likable! ”

King Yanjun is also a smart person, and he immediately knew the meaning of the emperor's words. However, King Yanjun sneered in his heart, although Prince Nazhong and His Majesty the Emperor are brothers of the same mother, but who doesn't know that Xiao Yu is a fool with a bad mind, even such a fool wants to compete with his son who is both civil and military, and it is too self-conscious! Moreover, that Rong Anhou would not be stupid enough to marry his daughter to a fool!

King Yanjun chuckled: "My son has a marriage contract with the eldest lady of the Xie family, even if you want to rob it, it depends on whether the young lady of the Xie family is willing or not......"

His words really made Prince Zhong angry, isn't it obvious, saying that his son can't rob people! However, it is true that people say that Xie Changning must be a stupid son who can't look down on his family. Prince Zhong was speechless, but he had to sulk in his heart, he knew his son's condition very well, and he did not want to argue with others again.

Prince Zhong returned to his mansion with a stomach full of resentment, and for a while he poured his sullen anger on his princess, "Look at you, how did you discipline Yu'er?" The Rong'an Hou Mansion and the Yanjun Wangfu made a marriage contract! You actually dare to let Yu'er give him any gifts all day long! ”

Prince Zhong reprimanded Prince Zhong with a red face and red ears, just because of the words of King Yanjun, he lost face in front of the emperor today.

Prince Zhong has always doted on Xiao Yu, and when she heard that Prince Zhong was angrily counting Xiao Yu, Prince Zhong was very sad and said aggrievedly: "What's wrong with my son?" No matter how childlike he is, he is also the nephew of the Son of Heaven, how can he not compare to the son of a county king with a different surname? He married Xie Changning, why can't my son marry? When the words fell, so did the tears.

Prince Zhong became more and more annoyed, and scolded: "What are you crying for? If Xiao Yu can be like Yan Qinglan, why is this, even if I am so tired, I am also despised by Yan Ji's old thing! Let Xiao Yu give me an an's points, don't be embarrassed everywhere! "Prince Zhong was humiliated in front of outsiders, so naturally he didn't have a good temper, and he only hated how his son was inferior to other people's children.

"Lord Wang, I don't want to, if I hadn't been optimistic about him at the beginning...... As a mother, I hope that Yu'er can ask for a beautiful daughter-in-law, and you should understand my distress. Prince Zhong wiped her tears, she felt heart-wrenching, if her family's Yu'er hadn't had an accident, she would not be inferior to that Yan Qinglan.

"Hmph, let Xiao Yu stay at home, you take good care of him, don't let him give birth to any more moths for me!"

At this time, Xiao Yu happened to be hiding behind the screen, and he clearly heard his parents' quarrel.

"Father......" Xiao Yu clenched his fists, his nails deeply embedded in his palms. Although Xiao Yu is just a child's mind, he is quite sensitive, he has always known that his father dislikes him, thinks he is stupid, not as good as others, Xiao Yu feels sad, and thinks that Xie Changan has been engaged to Yan Qinglan, and feels inferior.

On a cold moonlit night, Xiao Yu sat alone by the pond.

The moonlight is tilted, reflecting Xiao Yu's lonely figure.

Xiao Yu shook his legs sullenly, unconsciously raised his hand, and looked at the injury he had suffered a few days ago due to carving rabbits, alas...... I don't know if Chang'an likes the woodcarved rabbit he sent? It's just that Chang'an and Na Yan Shizi have a marriage contract, and sooner or later they will become Yan Shizi's daughter-in-law.

Xiao Yu looked down at the water in the pond, the bright moon in the sky was reflected in the water, and in a trance, he seemed to see Xie Changan, who was smiling and answering his question seriously. However, how can a person as good as Yan Shizi be able to catch up with himself? Thinking about it, Xiao Yu became more and more inferior, and had a lot of troubles.

Xiao Yu muttered, "Chang'an...... I miss you so much. For a while, he couldn't help but stretch out his hand, wanting to touch Xie Changan's face.

only heard a "poof", Xiao Yu actually fell into the pond.

Xiao Yu panicked, choked on the water in his mouth, and Xiao Yu struggled and shouted: "Ah! Help me...... Ah......" Before the words fell, he choked into a pool of water, Xiao Yu splashed wildly in the water, and for a while, the pond splashed.

The nearby servants heard the sound and searched for it with a lantern, but saw Xiao Yu fluttering in the pond, and hurriedly shouted: "Oh no! The boy fell into the pond! After the words fell, he threw the lantern aside, jumped off the pond quickly, and swam to Xiao Yu with all his might.

The man tightened Xiao Yu's waist with one hand, and swam hard with the other.

When the servants heard the news, they rushed into the water to rescue, and everyone carried Xiao Yu up with all their hands.

Xiao Yu was lying flat on the ground, his face was blue, his lips were so pale that there was no trace of blood, for a while, he felt that his throat was uncomfortable, his ears were rumbling, his nose was choking, and he was wet and uncomfortable!

When Prince Zhong arrived, she saw Xiao Yu lying on the ground soaking wet, frightened, and hurriedly asked, "Yu'er, are you okay?" But where is the discomfort? ”

A gust of night wind blew, Xiao Yu only felt chills all over his body, and trembled: "Mother, I'm fine......"

Seeing this, Prince Zhong and Princess Zhong ordered her subordinates to quickly carry Xiao Yu back to the room, instructed the maid to prepare water and ginger tea, and the servants took the order to send Xiao Yu to the room, and then went to work.

While changing Xiao Yu's clothes, Prince Zhong asked, "Yu'er, what happened here?" How can a good person fall into the water? ”

Thinking of the reason why he fell into the water, Xiao Yu's face turned red, and he stumbled and said, "Mother...... I just wasn't careful. The words fell, and he looked up cautiously at Prince Zhong.

Seeing this, Prince Zhong knew that Xiao Yu had something to hide from her, since Xiao Yu didn't want to say it, she didn't force it, but said seriously: "Yu'er, you don't know water yet, don't get closer to the pond in the future, if something happens to you, what should you do if you want your mother?" ”

Xiao Yu knew that his mother was really frightened, and immediately promised: "Mother, don't worry, I promise not to go near the pond!" ”
