Chapter 178: Expectation
"Miss Lin can make poems?" Tang Ningyuan's words are still heard. Shen Ziyi turned around from the side and said with a smile, while looking at Lin Xiaozhu quietly, with countless questions and curiosity in his heart.
The jade plaque just now really scared him. When he went out to travel, his father showed him a picture of a jade plaque. Tell him that when you meet someone who holds this jade plate, you must be respectful, and you must not be slacking off in the slightest, let alone offend him.
He remembered that he was still stupid and asked, what about the emperor? He cannot interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, and he cannot even change his status as a citizen, but he only has a peacekeeping army. As long as he doesn't do things that hurt nature and reason, he will be helpless to take himself.
The face of the king of Nanyue changed several times at that time, and he finally smiled bitterly: "When I was young, I was confused and offended the saint, and since then I have known the horror of the saint. Let's put it this way, his people are pervasive; He knows everything about you. He wants a person to disappear from this world, and he can do it without knowing it, even if you are the emperor; He wants to punish a person, not at all by normal means. It's just that these saints are all extremely upright and disciplined people, and rarely use these methods, so no one knows. And the person who holds this jade plaque is either the saint himself, or the person the saint wants to protect, similar to his son and grandson. Today, the saint is a person who is extremely protective of his shortcomings. Once he touches his people, there will be no good fruit to eat. ”
With his father's advice, he was very shocked when he saw the jade plate on Lin Xiaozhu's neck. At that time, the first reaction was to pay a big respect. But soon he realized that this little girl must not be Xuanyuan Shengshang himself. Coupled with Lin Xiaozhu's gesture, he didn't move.
But at this time, he had countless questions in his heart: Why did Lin Xiaozhu have this jade plate? How deep is her relationship with Xuanyuan Shengshang? What is the relationship between her and Yuan Tianye? Does Yuan Tianye know that she has this jade plate?
But no matter what, you can't offend Lin Xiaozhu. This is very clear. That's why he invited Lin Xiaozhu to come, and just now he also put most of his thoughts on her. It's just that she doesn't want to show off, so she pretends to be casual. Didn't come right away and give us a warm welcome.
Lin Xiaozhu was about to wave his hand and humble himself, but he heard the exclamation of the county lord Wanhua coming from behind him: "Make a poem? Miss Lin Xiaozhu can make poems? Then she came from behind. Stand beside Shen Ziyi.
Few people heard Tang Ningyuan's words just now, but the county lord of Wanhua exclaimed. But it has attracted the attention of countless people.
"The county lord said and laughed, I'm a cook, where can I write any poems?" Lin Xiaozhu didn't care about the sarcastic tone of the county lord of Wanhua and these scrutinizing eyes, smiled faintly, and was about to leave, "Don't delay a few sons to compose poems, Xiaozhu will go and talk to a few chefs over there." ”
"Hey. Don't go! Lord Wanhua stopped her, "Just now I obviously heard Tang Gongzi say that you can make poems, Miss Xiaozhu doesn't have to be modest, just make a poem and take a look." ”
Lin Xiaozhu looked at Lord Wanhua, then at Shen Ziyi, and smiled. Lord Wanhua was interested in Shen Ziyi, and she saw it that day. At this time, she was dissatisfied with Shen Ziyi not accompanying her to compose poems, but talking to herself, right? There was another shock in the water pavilion just now, is she trying to embarrass herself in public?
Yuan Tianye knew that Lin Xiaozhu was not the master of bullying, and he didn't have to protect his chickens all the time. At the critical moment, it is enough to protect her from loss. There was a hint of an unclear smile on the corner of his mouth at the moment. Stand there and don't move.
But Tang Ningyuan couldn't hold his breath and was not angry. Although Tang Ning is far from a royal family, he is also from a prominent background, and his grandfather is a British duke. He is the emperor's cousin. The family has a marriage relationship with the royal family and major nobles: not to mention the far, but to say the near, the maternal grandfather of the Wanhua county lord married Tang Ningyuan's aunt; Today's Princess Rui, that is, Yuan Tianye's mother, is also surnamed Tang and is Tang Ningyuan's aunt. Therefore, he and the county lord of Wanhua have been growing up since childhood, and they always have to meet a few times during the New Year's holidays, and they have a very bad impression of this domineering county lord. At this time, seeing that she wanted to embarrass Lin Xiaozhu in public, she said with a smile: "If the lord of Wanhua urges Yigongzi to compose a poem, I don't think it's strange at all. Now I am so interested in whether Miss Lin writes poetry or not, I think it is very strange. Lord Wanhua, you may tell me why? ”
The county lord of Wanhua has no good impression of Tang Ningyuan as much as Yuan Tianye. At this time, seeing him helping, I felt more and more that Lin Xiaozhu was a fox and hooked the hearts of a group of men. She glared at Tang Ningyuan and said, "Tang Ningyuan, what's the matter with you?" ”
After saying this, he was afraid that his strong language would intimidate Shen Ziyi, so he hurriedly added: "I'm just interested in a subordinate who can compose poetry, can't I?" In my opinion, it is good for a subordinate to be able to read two words. Now that some people say that they can compose poetry, I naturally have to see it. ”
This contemptuous tone finally annoyed Lin Xiaozhu. She glanced at the county lord Wanhua and said lightly: "I'm sorry, I'm not in the mood to compose poetry today, and I can't let the county lord have a long experience, I'm really sorry." "If you want me to write poetry, do you? This girl just will, and she won't bird you.
"Ahem......" Shen Ziyi couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly covered it with a cough. Lin Xiaozhu's words seem to be not rude, but in fact, they are thorny, and they are too level! is really worthy of being the owner of the old man's jade plate. He is now more and more interested in this Lin Xiaozhu.
"What a guts!" The county lord of Wanhua was furious. A subordinate dared to embarrass her in front of everyone and use her words to block himself. She turned her face away and said to Yuan Tianye, "Yuan Gongzi, how did you teach your subordinates?" A cook dares to say anything if she is in the mood or not! Do you ask her to do things, and she dares to say that she is not in the mood? ”
"This is the shopkeeper of my dim sum shop. If she wants to say that she is not in the mood, I don't even earn a lot less money, where do I dare to ask her to do anything? Yuan Tianye shook the fan in his hand and said with a smile, "Besides, how do I discipline my subordinates, I really don't dare to worry about the county lord Wanhua." ”
"You...... You ......" Lord Wanhua was so speechless by these words. Seeing Shen Ziyi standing aside and just laughing, she didn't mean to help her at all, she stomped her foot and glanced at Shen Ziyi with disgust: "Young Master Yi, you don't help others!" ”
"Shhhh Everyone took a silent breath, shook the goosebumps on their bodies, and quickly twisted their faces to the side, lest they accidentally let the county lord Wanhua see the smile on their faces.
Shen Ziyi had no intention of marrying the county lord of Wanhua. But the people in Duanwang's Mansion didn't make it clear about family affairs, so he kept pretending to be confused, but he usually paid attention to not having contact with the county lord of Wanhua alone. At this time, he was the master of Shen Yuan, and the county lord of Wanhua named him again, and he couldn't hide, so he had to divert the topic and said: "A pillar of incense will be finished soon, why don't the county lord hurry up and compose a poem?" ”
"Yes, a third of the time has passed, why don't you guys do it?" Chen's voice came.
Everyone turned their heads to see that Princess Danyang and his wife had walked over from the path on the left.
"Brother-in-law, Miss Xiaozhu said that she can compose poems, and I am asking her to compose a poem." The county lord of Wanhua made up her mind today that she must make a big ugly appearance for Lin Xiaozhu, which made her feel bad in her heart.
"Oh? Little bamboo girl can also write poems? Princess Danyang raised her eyebrows and said unexpectedly.
This boastful reputation can't just be deducted from Lin Xiaozhu's head, Tang Ningyuan preemptively said: "Miss Lin has been humbly saying that she can't compose poems, but the county lord of Wanhua has always asked her to do it." ”
"Just now she said she was in a bad mood, so she didn't do it. I didn't say no! Lord Wanhua retorted.
As soon as Princess Danyang heard it, she knew that Wanhua had come here again to embarrass Lin Xiaozhu, she looked at Wanhua reproachfully with a sinking face, and was about to pull her away and say a few more words of relief, but she heard Yuan Tianye's voice sound: "Xiaozhu, since the county lord of Wanhua has repeatedly invited you to compose a poem, you can compose one." ”
Everyone turned their heads and glanced at Yuan Tianye in surprise.
Yuan Tianye looked at Lin Xiaozhu, his eyes full of encouragement.
He seldom came to such boring banquets, and was even more reluctant to compose poems in such places for the amusement of others. But he is extremely proud in his bones, and when it is time to show his talent, he will never shirk. This is also the reason why although he came to the banquet as a civilian, no one dared to talk about the noble and the low in front of him, even the lord of Wanhua did not dare.
Therefore, he didn't want people to look down on Lin Xiaozhu. In his eyes, although these women present were noble and talented, none of them could compare to his Lin Xiaozhu's intelligence.
What's the big deal about writing poetry? His Lin Xiaozhu can become a poem in five steps just by explaining the rules once, and it is also a wonderful poem!
"Childe." Lin Xiaozhu raised his head in surprise, saw Yuan Tianye's eyes, and immediately understood the meaning in his eyes. Suddenly, he was arrogant and said: "Since the son ordered, then Xiaozhu will make the last article!" ”
Everyone is overjoyed!
Of course, everyone's joys are different. The county lord of Wanhua is because he can see Lin Xiaozhu make a fool of himself immediately, and his wish is fulfilled; Shen Ziyi felt that he could have a deeper understanding of Lin Xiaozhu, after all, poetry was born from the heart, and it could best express people's true temperament and talent; And Tang Ningyuan was looking forward to Lin Xiaozhu being a blockbuster, so that everyone would fall for her talent and learning, and throw a loud slap from Lord Wanhua; Yuan Tianye faintly had a kind of treasure of his own displayed in front of everyone in his heart, ready to accept everyone's envy. Only Princess Danyang and his wife, looking forward to more than surprises. They knew that Yuan Tianye was not a casual person, since he ordered Lin Xiaozhu to compose poems, presumably Lin Xiaozhu was quite talented in this regard. (To be continued)
