"So what are you going to do? I don't think you said a few words today. Didn't you come here to rub free melons and fruits? ”

"Originally, His Royal Highness explained me a very important thing, but a ghost girl rushed out halfway and did that thing for me."

Ji Lianmei pointed at herself with her finger, "Ghost girl? Do you mean me? ”

It's strange, I'm just trying to compete with that Song Wushuang, this Bai Yucheng, won't he be using me again.

"Have you ever heard that His Highness has introduced some literati from ordinary backgrounds into the Hanlin Academy? The people gathered here were all extremely stubborn royals, who went around suppressing those ordinary people, so much so that they were forced to drop out of school. That Song Wushuang can also be regarded as the leader among them. Your Highness held this poetry meeting in the hope that I could reconcile it, so that ordinary people with knowledge could enjoy the same admission treatment, and those nobles who did not learn and did not know how to drive out of the Hanlin Academy. Mian Fu saw the doubts in Ji Lianmei's heart and explained.

"I see." Ji Lianmei nodded in agreement.

"Actually, you understand the meaning of that poem, don't you?" Mian Fu stood on one side, and his expression suddenly became gentle.

"Hmm........ I know. ”

"Then why don't you say it?"

"When people live, they must always leave a little bit of face for others. I stumped Song Wushuang today, which has already made him lose face, and I am embarrassed to let him lose again, so it is better to be tactful and draw with him. Although this Song Wushuang has a big shelf, he looks like a reasonable person, and he will not embarrass those civilian students anymore. ”

With an example like Song Wushuang, other talents will naturally follow suit.

As for the interpretation of the verses, Ji Lianmei naturally does not have such deep literary attainments, but because these two poems happened to be written by Bai Yucheng, and she happened to see them when she was packing up the scrolls and asked him questions.

At that time, the young man stood against the light, with a smile on his lips: "The beauty of this poem lies in the fact that the apostrotrophe of the word "if" is the word "bitter" if it is not skimmed out; The word "each" is only the word "name" if it is closed; A pinch is a "person". In all the things of the world, put aside some interests, and if you look at it, you will not be bitter; Between square inches, being able to hold down emotions is the wisdom of life, and I think only this kind of life is the life ....... that we do."

However, Ji Lianmei didn't take these words to heart at that time. This time, she didn't say the meaning of the poem, the main reason was not to give Song Wushuang a step down, but she forgot what the next words were, and only remembered the first few sentences.

"I can't see it, Princess Lianmei is really smart." Mianfu nodded humbly.

"Hey, that's nature."

Ji Lianmei stood up and walked to the other end of the gazebo corridor.

Near this pavilion are large bamboo forests and shrubs, and a pale blue mist rises from under the grass and tea tree stumps. The fragrance of plum and citrus aurantium mixed in the hazy mist, and the whole mountain dock is warm and cool.

The girl took a deep breath of fresh air contentedly and hummed happily.

Mianfu looked at the innocent girl in front of him, and the corners of his mouth rippled with a slight arc. The heartbeat was also inadvertently a few beats faster.

Just when everything was quiet, a figure suddenly appeared on the pavilion, and wrapped one hand around Ji Lianmei's neck. Before Ji Lianmei could react, the blade was already against her neck.

"Don't come here!" The masked man shouted a warning to sleep.

Seeing that the situation was not right, several guards who were lying in ambush immediately emerged from the bushes, drew their swords and surrounded the masked man.

The masked man looked around, rose into the air, and walked away quickly on the branches of the leaves. As he fled, several black-clad and masked assassins appeared, swords wielding swords to confront Bai Yucheng's guards.

However, after a few moments of entanglement, the Assassins fled quickly.

"Chase!" Mian Fu didn't know martial arts, so he couldn't fly around the wall like that group of people, so he had to order the remaining guards, and leave one more to protect himself.

"Sir, the speed of this group of assassins is too fast, it is difficult for us to keep up, do we need to divide the troops back to the house in two ways to move the rescue soldiers?"

"No, I can't go back, now is the critical moment for His Highness to stabilize his position, and I must not let His Highness know that Ji Lianmei was robbed." Mianfu looked at the direction where the man in black had left, and had a premonition that something was about to happen.

It is no accident that these people robbed Ji Lianmei, it was difficult to .....

"Quick, go home with me."

Royal Palace, Riding Shooting Range.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Ten Rings. His Royal Highness the Second Prince, Ten Rings. His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, the ....... of the Nine Rings" The eunuchs serving on the side loudly reported the riding and archery results of several princes.

Today, Emperor Song invited several princes and important ministers in the court who were more outstanding in their abilities among the princes, and the beautiful name was to test the riding and archery knowledge of the princes, but in fact, it was to re-elect a capable person to serve as the prince in the hearts of Bai Yucheng and Gongzi Yu.

Bai Yucheng is knowledgeable and far-sighted, he broke through the Xiongnu Pengcheng in one fell swoop when he was young, and now he has reduced the power of Wu Yue, which is unstoppable, but although he is the first son of Emperor Song, he was born to a concubine. And Gongzi Yuxin is far inferior to Bai Yucheng in terms of intelligence and strategy, but he is the eldest son of Empress Jiang, and his background is superior, and he should inherit the throne, but at that time, Emperor Song and Yuan had established Bai Yucheng as the crown prince, and he could not abolish his position as the prince casually, so the matter has been delayed.

Bai Yucheng has been away from the government and the opposition for more than ten years, although everyone respectfully calls him the prince, but in their hearts, the name of the prince has long been in name only.

Now Bai Yucheng is about to marry the princess of the Xianbei tribe, Asai Bena, if he can pass this test and sit firmly on the throne of the prince, this storage position will change hands again, I am afraid it will be difficult.

"Hahaha, all of my emperors are one in a hundred talents, especially Cheng'er and Xin'er, both riding and archery and ethics are very good, come on, reward."

Emperor Song clapped his hands, and the palace maids on the side served three dishes to Bai Yucheng and Gongzi Yuxin respectively.

A plate of sunflower seeds, a bowl of peach blossom soup, and a plate of chicken hearts.

"Thank you, Father." Both princes thanked Emperor Song.

In order to show his absolute trust and sincerity in Emperor Song, Gongzi Yuxin started eating without saying a word.

Bai Yucheng picked up the chopsticks and was about to take a bite, but suddenly realized something, his eyebrows twisted slightly, and then, his smile gradually stretched.

He placed the chicken heart on the far right in the middle, poured the sunflower seeds and peach blossom soup on the ground, and then picked up the chopsticks and ate the chicken heart on the plate.

After Emperor Song saw Bai Yucheng's move, he nodded with satisfaction.

Gongzi Yuxin naturally noticed Bai Yucheng's actions and Emperor Song's expression, but he didn't understand what he meant.

Bai Yucheng poured the things rewarded by his father on the ground, which was tantamount to contempt for the emperor's grace, but his father not only did not blame him, but also seemed to be extremely satisfied with him.......

This is a simple three-dish dish, but there is a lot of article in it. This sunflower seed, taken from the sunflower, alludes to the Xiang clan, peach blossom soup, flower, alluding to the Hua clan, Bai Yucheng poured out the sunflower seeds and peach blossom soup, and put the chicken heart in the middle, intending to tell the Song Emperor that he would eradicate the Xiang Hua clan to show his loyalty. Although Gongzi Yuxin's approach also won the favor of Emperor Song, it naturally did not satisfy Emperor Song as much as Bai Yucheng.

However, this idea was naturally not thought up by Emperor Song, but with the help of an auxiliary minister appointed by the former emperor. He and the Xianghua clan have also had a long-standing grudge.

"Hahaha, I'll go back to the camp tent to rest for a while, Cheng'er, you will come to my camp in a while, I have something to tell you." Emperor Song happily got up from his chair and returned to the tent with the help of the eunuch.

As soon as Emperor Song left, the ministers sitting on one side congratulated Bai Yucheng one after another.

Since His Majesty wants to summon the eldest prince alone, this storage position must still belong to the eldest prince, and this person's ability is extraordinary, whether he buys it or not, it is always okay to pat himself on the back.

Their smiles were piled up on their faces, and the little abacus in their hearts kept playing.

Gongzi Yuxin also came over with a glass of wine and said to Bai Yucheng: "Brother Wang is really thoughtful, and Brother Wang is ashamed of himself. I don't know if the little maid named Xiwan is by Brother Wang's side, but she is okay? ”

"Everything is fine, don't worry about Brother Wang."

"Oh, that's good. This king just wants to remind Brother Wang that he must take good care of her, she is just a simple and pure little maidservant, you don't want her to be wronged. After saying this, Gongzi Yuxin walked away.

Bai Yucheng looked at his distant back and thought: This son Yuxin seems to have something to say.

"Xiao Yu." Bai Yucheng summoned Xiao Yu, who came to the riding range to accompany him, and asked, "When you rushed over just now, Wan'er and Mr., have you returned home?" ”

"No, Mr. Mianfu and Miss Wan'er went out early in the morning, and they haven't come back yet. Your Highness, has something happened? ”

The more Bai Yucheng thought about it, the more worried he became.

"Xiao Yu, go back to the house with me to have a look."

"No, Your Highness, Your Majesty will summon you later." Xiao Yu hurriedly stopped Bai Yucheng.

This competition is crucial for him, and now he is only one last step away.

"Xiao Yu, you stay here." After Bai Yucheng finished explaining, he stepped on his horse and galloped back to the prince's mansion.

After a while, the eunuch's sharp voice came from the camp tent of the riding range: "Oh no, there are assassins, catch the assassins quickly........."

Bai Yucheng reined in his horse, glanced back at the noisy and messy crowd, hesitated for a moment, and then hurried towards the prince's mansion regardless of it.

When Bai Yucheng arrived at the Prince's Mansion, Mian Fu also happened to return here.

"Where's Ji Lianmei?" Bai Yucheng turned over and dismounted, and put his eyes on Mianfu's shoulders with some excitement.

"Your Highness, you have been tricked, hurry back quickly, otherwise you will ......."

"I ask you! Where is Ji Renmei! Before Mian Fu finished speaking, Bai Yucheng roared, and the strength of his shoulder suddenly increased.

Mian Fu was thin, and when he was caught like this, he gasped a little painfully, and said word by word: "She was kidnapped by a group of masked people, and it is estimated that she is the person of Gongzi Yuxin." ”

Childe Jade Heart.......

Bai Yucheng only felt that his body sank, and he was a little unstable. The hand that grabbed Mianfu drooped as if it couldn't withstand gravity.

Last time, Gongzi Yuxin killed Ji Lianmei in front of him, this time, she was robbed alone, what kind of treatment will she receive....

"Your Highness, calm down, the most important thing now is to hurry back to the palace, there is still a chance to .....go back now" Mian Fu squatted down to appease Bai Yucheng.

"Find ......." Bai Yucheng put his hands on the ground and muttered in his mouth, "Everyone, go to find me, if you can't find her, you all have to die!" ”
