022 Emperor's birthday gift
The prince's hand on the plate moved: "Still look at a fart, let this palace hold it for you?" ”
I quickly took it, dazed and at a loss.
This action just now has already attracted the sideways glances of the people next to me, and the prince doesn't care, but in the face of these powerful people in the court, I have to smile and nod my head to show respect.
I don't think the prince was necessarily merciful when he handed me a plate, it was like picking up a bone from the table and throwing it to the dog on the ground, more out of playfulness.
In the strange eyes of others, I suddenly lost interest in the dish while holding the plate.
"Hey, what did you prepare?" The prince had been casually watching other people's congratulatory gifts, and only then did he remember to care about this issue.
He had a lot of fun and drank a lot last night, and he hurried over after getting up this morning, and the congratulatory gifts were all arranged by me to be delivered, and he didn't even look at them.
I leaned down and whispered in his ear, "Paint." It's a big ......."
Before I could finish speaking, he interrupted me with something and scolded in a low voice with a stupid expression: "You have been working on a painting for half a month, have you gone to make fucking paper?" ”
…… I'm speechless.
After the important ministers of the court and the central government presented gifts, it was the turn of the crown prince.
The prince got up and walked out of the feast, and today, he was wearing a dark blue straight court robe, with a gold silk and crane ribbon of the same color around his waist, and his black hair was tied up and fixed with a gilt crown.
He stood in the center of the hall, handsome and chic, with a proud expression that could not be attached, and he was the prince of the princes. He's going to pretend to be the same prodigal bastard I see on weekdays.
He made a big gift to the emperor to congratulate him on his birthday, and the palace people had already brought up the congratulatory gifts. The reason why I say: "lift" is because this congratulatory gift is not ordinarily large.
The prince turned his head behind him, and when he saw the congratulatory gift behind him that was higher than him, his body suddenly sudden, obviously surprised.
The congratulatory gift was as tall as a bed, covered with a red cloth, and it was impossible to see what it was.
The prince's reaction is likely to be ignored in the eyes of others, but I understand the inside story and can't help but snicker in my heart.
But he's usually wild, and this little excitement is nothing, and almost the next second he's calm, as if nothing happened.
The palace people lifted the red cloth, and the true face of the congratulatory gift was finally revealed.
I noticed everyone's reactions, and sure enough, everyone's eyes widened in surprise, including the Emperor, and their bodies unconsciously looked forward.
In front of them is a landscape painting, with an elegant, yet slightly heavy frame.
The beautiful mountains in the painting are winding and circling, layered on top of each other, and the clouds and mist peeking out from the top of the mountain are like hibiscus flowers coming out of the water. A white line rushed straight down, with momentum like a rainbow. After falling to the foot of the mountain, the power gradually subsided, turning into several streams, gurgling and flowing, and houses and ships were faintly visible on the side, and the whole painting revealed an indescribable ethereal beauty.
This painting is truly the work of everyone, and the craftsmanship is superb, but this alone is far from enough to shock the audience.
What amazed them was why the clouds in the painting could really drift and move. Why does a waterfall really cascade? Why does a stream really trickle?
Looking at the breathtaking looks of the audience, I was secretly proud. The heavy framing of this painting is not for nothing, and naturally there is a mystery in it.
In fact, its principle is very simple, and it is impossible for me to think of it as complicated, that is, magnetism.
The pouring waterfall was not painted, but made of white-dyed iron filings, and there were magnets in the path of the waterfall, and the magnetic force increased in order.
The iron filings were attracted by a magnet, and they were attracted by the next magnet with greater magnetic force without stopping, so that they were constantly attracted to form a dynamic appearance, until the last and most magnetic magnet, at this time there will be an opportunity - the iron filings that turned into white clouds just floated here, of course, this requires deep efforts in the control of time.
The magnetic force carried by the white cloud is the same as that of the waterfall, and due to the principle of "repulsion of the same sex", the waterfall and the iron filings on the white cloud are pushed back to the first magnet at the same time, and each begins a new round of attraction.
This process perfectly realizes the cycle of repetition, so we see the clouds drifting tirelessly, and the waterfall is flowing endlessly.
For that, I have to express my gratitude to my ex-boyfriend in the physics department.
The emperor was originally fond of landscape painting, and now he was overjoyed to give him such a large dynamic landscape. He smiled brightly, and the corners of his eyes were full of wrinkles. He asked, "Prince, did you make this painting for me?" ”
The prince's eyes turned away from the painting to the emperor, and in an instant, the shock at the time of seeing the painting disappeared without a trace, and he became calm, and replied, "Exactly." I hope my father likes it. ”
The emperor got the answer he wanted, smiled with satisfaction, looked at the painting again and again, and sighed: "It's really unexpected, it can be described as ingenious." Emperor, how is this made? ”
The prince looked slightly stunned, then pretended to be calm and glanced back at the painting again, and said, "Actually, it's not difficult...... It is the principle of the stars......"
"Oh? Stars? The Emperor continued to ask questions with great interest, and the crowd began to whisper.
"That's right, it's the stars......" The prince smiled and looked calm, but did not continue to speak.
Only I know his inner embarrassment at this moment, he doesn't know anything, today he saw this strange painting for the first time like everyone else, it is estimated that he said that it was related to some stars, it should be that he was shocked by this painting, and felt incredible, so he instinctively related to something distant and unknown.
Seeing him calmly embarrassed, I couldn't help but gloat and deserved it! Let you fill your head and say that the painting was created by you, everyone will see it, now it's up to you how you end.
"Father, although the son has an idea, but thanks to the son of the minister, the reading comprehension is not bad, and the supervision day and night, this painting is presented in front of the father, why don't you ask him to come and listen?"
After speaking, the prince turned his head to look at me and motioned for me to come over with his eyes.
Now it's my turn to be confused, I really can't imagine that he still has this kind of operation! However, at this time, the thief ship was in difficulty, so I had to go to the center of the temple and stand diagonally behind him.
I knelt on the ground and asked the emperor for a birthday.
After a few seconds of silence, the emperor finally spoke: "Qingyang, is it the one I chose for you?" ”
The emperor is quite old, but his memory is really good, it was two months ago, and I am a little eunuch who hasn't forgotten it.
"Stunned...... What, let's talk about it yet. The prince urged me.
His official image is very different from his original appearance, and I can always find his flaws, such as the inconspicuous pause just now, and I know which word he is about to say.
The most miserable thing now is me, I was used as a shield by him for no reason, and it's still a super mess. If I were asked to explain normally, I would be calm and reasonable, but now how do you ask me to explain your bullshit "stars"?
The current situation does not allow me to retreat, so I can only use all my logical and linguistic abilities to forcibly explain: "Back to the emperor, that day the prince watched the stars at night, and couldn't help but ask why the stars were changing but the cycle continued, so His Royal Highness the prince had a whim, and wanted to create a congratulatory gift for the emperor with endless meanings, wishing the emperor a long life......
I look as calm and composed as the crown prince. That's because I have to think about it while I say it, and I can't think about it neatly and crisply. And then it was logical to get on the right track, and when I talked about the principle of magnets, I became clear and confident.
As soon as I finished speaking, a new wave of whispering began around me.
As the kings and grandsons, they should be no strangers to such things as magnets. As far back as the Spring and Autumn Period, the working people had already discovered the magnet. During the Warring States period, there were people who used magnets to make tools to determine the direction, which was called "Sishang" at that time, and later, after repeated research and improvement, it became a compass.
It's just that to their surprise, they couldn't imagine that they would use magnets for this thing. The emperor looked at the painting, his eyes wandered between the mountains and clouds, persistent and profound, and he said for a long time: "Wait until I send it to my bedroom." ”
"The retainers obey." The prince replied loudly.
When I was beside him, I could feel that every pore on his body was full of flamboyance and pride.
The birthday gift did not end until noon, and the emperor's relatives had eaten and drunk enough, so they went to the imperial garden with the emperor.
There are a number of stages in the Imperial Garden, with three floors and two floors of different scales, and today's stage is different from the past, all dressed in red and green, which is festive.
After everyone took their seats, gongs and drums began to play on the stage, and an auspicious drama was staged to celebrate the emperor's birthday.
Wrapped in gold and jade, his voice is clear, his long sleeves are swinging, and his posture is thousands. is worthy of being a well-known name.
It's a pity that I don't have enough qualifications and don't know how to appreciate this kind of art, so I started to wander after just watching it for a while.
I looked aimlessly, King Mu sat diagonally behind the prince, his mind was not on the stage, but half-bowed his head to savor the tea in his hand, the water vapor of the hot tea was thick between his eyebrows, and it was more peerless than the characters on the stage.
I remembered the scene when he presented a gift to the emperor in the main hall today. He was wearing a purple court robe, and only a white jade pendant fell on his side. Standing tall in the center of the hall, standing as tall as a willow, his jet-black hair was high and shining with a faint luster, which made his neck more slender and graceful.
And the congratulatory gift from this handsome prince has not changed for many years - ten boxes of rice paper in Los Angeles.
I paid special attention to the emperor's expression, and although there was no surprise to speak of, I gladly accepted it.
Alas, like a person he does everything right. Replaced by the crown prince, I worked hard for more than half a month, fighting for the IQ of the 21st century, and won the emperor's smile.
I watched Mu Wangwu lose his mind, but at this moment, he looked up at me as if he was aware.
Look at each other!
I thought it was too late to move away, so I could only smile humbly at his handsome face, and I thought it would be less rude to look away at this time.
I was about to turn my head when I saw him tilt his head to me meaningfully, as if to signal something to me.
I suspected that I was dazzled and wanted to make sure that he had already gotten up and walked out, away from the crowd.
