Chapter 245: An auspicious omen
There was a burst of laughter from the sidelines.
"Take a look, what is on the faces of Han Shizi and General Han?"
"It's like a turtle."
"Yes, that's right, it's a turtle."
"Haha, Miss Xiao's painting skills are really good, and the turtle's demeanor is very similar to Han Shizi."
"Haha"
Han Tong and Han Da sank their faces and looked at each other's faces, and sure enough, they saw a turtle on each other's faces, and it was a turtle with four feet facing the sky.
The faces of the two were darker than the ink on their faces, and they endured the pain and struggled to get up from the ground.
At this time, someone from the Zhenguo Mansion stepped forward to help them, and then walked away.
Xiao Ling bent the corners of her mouth slightly, put away the coldness in her eyes, lifted the brush, and waved it.
She wrote at the same speed as she had just beaten someone, and almost in the blink of an eye, she wrote eight large characters.
Gonggong Zhang walked up to the stage and gave Xiao Lingwei a quick look, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, and then he ordered the two palace people to hold up Xiao Lingwei's rice paper and show it to the emperor.
"Happiness and longevity, the country is eternal. Good, good, good. ”
The emperor said three "good" words in a row, and his joy was overflowing, "Although it is not Pei Ti, it has the character of Mr. Pei." At a young age, he has such attainments in calligraphy, and today, I am afraid that I will not be able to find a second person. ”
The emperor gave such a high evaluation, which made the ministers below very curious.
"Show everybody." The Emperor commanded.
So, the two palace people turned around and faced the rice paper to everyone.
"Tsk, that's wonderful, well written, well written."
"It is worthy of being the apprentice taught by Mr. Pei, and the women are not allowed to shave their eyebrows."
Everyone praised one after another, and the people sitting close couldn't help but say to Xiao Linhui, "Lord Xiao has such an excellent daughter, it really makes me envious." ”
"Yes, Lord Xiao, Ling Yan became famous in a battle today, presumably from tomorrow, the threshold of Xiao Mansion will be broken, haha."
Xiao Linhui showed a modest expression and said, "Everyone is laughing, the little girl is still young and naughty, and she still needs to be strictly disciplined." ”
The rest of the Xiao Mansion was also besieged by everyone, and they all said words of praise and envy.
The Emperor exclaimed, "Reward." ”
Concubine De reminded, "Your Majesty, the jade ruyi has already been rewarded. ”
The emperor paused, and the next moment, he took off the jade jue on his waist, "Since the jade Ruyi has been rewarded, then I will reward this jade jue to Xiao Wu." ”
Concubine Xiao Guifei exclaimed, "Your Majesty, this is your favorite piece of jade, and you have to wear it by your side every day." ”
The emperor waved his hand, "Eh, it's okay, I'm very happy today, it's rare to have someone who makes me so happy, I must reward her." ”
Xiao Ling stepped forward slightly.
Xiao Ling left the stage slightly and walked in front of the emperor with a variety of demeanors.
The emperor personally handed the jade jue to Xiao Lingwei's hand, looking at her eyes loving and gentle, "Xiao Wu really impressed me today, this piece of jade jue is given to you, I hope you can get better and better in the future, don't let me down." ”
Xiao Ling held Yu Jue with a slight preciousness and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, the courtiers will definitely live up to Your Majesty's expectations." ”
A courtier below asked curiously, "Why does Your Majesty call Miss Xiao Liu Xiao Wu?" ”
Someone next to him explained, "Mr. Pei has a total of five apprentices, and Miss Xiao Liu is a closed disciple, isn't it the fifth." ”
"Oh~, I see."
Xiao Lingwei put away Yu Jue in envy, and was about to return to her seat when the emperor suddenly asked, "By the way, what gift did you prepare for me today?" ”
Xiao Ling blinked her bright eyes slightly, and said mysteriously, "Your Majesty sent someone to fetch it, and you will know it." ”
The emperor stretched out his finger and pointed at her, "You little girl, you still sell with me." ”
Then he looked at Grandpa Zhang.
Gonggong Zhang understood and took someone to get Xiao Lingwei's birthday gift.
Today's Xiao Lingwei has brought too many surprises to everyone, and at this time, the emperor wants to see the birthday gift prepared by Xiao Lingwei, and his curiosity is aroused again, and he stretches his neck to look at the door of the hall.
Soon, there was movement at the door of the hall, and four palace people walked in carrying a huge cage, which was covered with a cloth, and it was impossible to see what was inside.
"What is it? So big. ”
Everyone speculated.
The emperor was also curious, and couldn't wait to order the palace people to "lift the cloth." ”
The palace man did so, and lifted the cloth, revealing an iron cage.
"Oh my God, it's Bailu."
"This is auspicious."
In the midst of an exclamation, the minister of the organic spirit took the lead and said, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, Bailu is here, this is good luck." ”
The emperor was overjoyed, smiling from ear to ear, today is his birthday, and there is an auspicious omen, indicating that he is in the abyss of the country, the people are safe, the wind and rain are smooth, the rivers and mountains are picturesque, and the people return to their hearts.
The appearance of auspicious rui is an affirmation of his governance of the country, and there is no gift more satisfying than this.
At this time, everyone knelt on the ground and sang in unison, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty." ”
The smile lines on the emperor's face deepened, "Okay, all reward, get up." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Invite Bailu down and take care of it."
The emperor turned to Xiao Lingwei again and asked, "Where did you find this white deer?" ”
Xiao Ling replied with a slight calmness, "Your Majesty, after the courtier's maternal grandfather came out of the prison, when the courtier's daughter went to Huangjue Temple to repay her vows, she happened to see this white deer in the back mountain and caught it.
"I think it was Your Majesty's tolerance and hard work that moved God, and I specially asked the courtiers to take this opportunity to dedicate the white deer to Your Majesty."
These words touched the emperor's heart, and after the emperor heard it, his heart suddenly became beautiful, and his body was light and fluttering, as if he was about to fly up to the clouds.
Xiao Linhui in the audience secretly muttered to herself that this girl is really a set of sycophants, even more powerful than him as a father.
The pen was held in his hand, and then he threw it back vigorously.
Brushes are scattered all over the place.
The crowd was stunned.
Especially the few people who were still fighting fiercely just now, they all stopped their movements at this moment, looked at the brushes scattered on the sidelines, and couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.
If you go to pick up a brush, you will inevitably step out of the stage, which is equivalent to automatic abstention.
If you don't pick it up, then you don't have a brush, so what can you use to write?
For such an unexpected situation, the emperor is also confused, now, how to decide the winner?
A red light flashed in Xiao Ling's mind, and then she had an idea in her heart.
She raised her hand and was about to bite her finger when she saw someone move faster than her.
It was Han Da, who obviously thought of a place with Xiao Ling, and quickly bit his finger and scratched it on the paper with blood as ink.
Han Tong saw it, looked at his fingers, and finally chose to give up.
Seeing this, the others drew gourds in the same way, bit their fingers, and began to write in blood.
Chen Manman saw that Xiao Lingwei seemed to be in a daze, motionless, and hurriedly shouted, "Weiwei, you write quickly." ”
Xiao Ling turned her head slightly to look at Chen Manman and smiled brightly at her.
