Chapter 176: When people sit in the temple, disaster falls from the sky
"Little Seven!" The third prince drank again, and his phoenix eyes were slightly raised with danger.
The seventh princess was frightened by his shout, her outstretched hand trembled slightly, and her eyes glanced around with a little panic.
Jing Mofeng just wanted to speak, but he didn't want the fourth prince beside him to gently reach out and press him, but he himself said slowly: "The third emperor brother must not be in a hurry, since the father and the emperor personally allowed him to uncover this mystery, even if the third emperor brother can't trust it, he should trust his father." ”
When the third prince heard this, he opened his mouth and wanted to refute it, but he saw the emperor's gaze sweeping over, and the coldness in it made his heart tremble slightly. ”
Here, the Seventh Princess also seemed to have made up her mind in an instant, reached out and pulled off the black cloth covering the object, and said at the same time: "It's just a piece of green jade dolomite that is a specialty on the Cloud Mountain of the Lieliang Kingdom, and there is a pot of Lieliang Kingdom's royal family planted to confuse the public!" ”
With the soft and glutinous voice of the seventh princess, the black cloth also slowly fell aside, and everyone looked over and saw that there was indeed a piece of jade and non-jade, faintly revealing blue and black, but there was a strange stone with wisps of white gas lingering around, which was green jade and white jade.
There are not many green jade and white jade produced, and the word "longevity" is faintly displayed in front of everyone, and it is obviously naturally formed, rather than artificially carved, which is even more rare.
And next to this piece of green jade and white jade longevity stone, as the seventh princess said, there is a pot of red flowers that are blooming, the flower at first glance seems to be a beauty blushing cheeks, and if you look closely, it seems to be a beautiful woman's dancing skirt, and people who know it immediately recognize that this is indeed a unique dance flower of the royal family of Lieliang Kingdom.
Seeing this situation, the current emperor also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, just to say that it is impossible not to worry, but he can't show it, he was ready in case Jing Wuwu guessed wrong, and thought about the way to deal with it later, but he didn't expect that Wuwu not only guessed it, but even the Bao Xi Dancing Flower next to it was said very accurately, and the emperor's face couldn't help but smile.
"Good! Carefree is worthy of being my daughter, the princess of the Tianli Dynasty! The emperor opened his mouth and praised.
The people below also opened their mouths to praise, only Rong Shengjie's face was extremely ugly, staring at the seventh princess with an expression as if he wanted to eat it alive, and almost no one noticed that the face of the third prince was also gloomy.
The fourth prince had a faint smile on his always cold face, and in a blink of an eye, he saw Jing Mofeng gently pushing over a small plate, and after being slightly stunned, he ordered a few words to the palace people beside him.
Although Jing Mofeng pushed a small saucer over, his eyes kept falling on Ling Qingrui, he was almost sure that Xiao Qi would have such a play today, and it was completely from the hands of this little woman.
Others may not have noticed when the seventh princess came in, but Jing Mofeng could see it clearly, Xiao Qi sneaked in from the side door when everyone's eyes fell on Rong Shengjie, and as soon as he entered the hall, he crept to Ling Qingrui's side, not knowing what Ling Qingrui said.
At this time, he happened to encounter Rong Shengjie's extremely arrogant behavior, maybe he couldn't get used to Rong Shengjie, or maybe for some other reason, Ling Qingrui leaned over and said a few words next to Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi stood up and claimed to be able to guess the items in it, and in the whole process, although some words were Xiao Qi's own play, but obviously Ling Qingrui had already explained the way to deal with it before this.
Otherwise, Xiao Qi, who has always been rude, although he is sharp-toothed, it is difficult to say those words that are quite imposing, and then Xiao Qi repeatedly looked at Ling Qingrui's gaze, which also allowed Jing Mofeng to accurately capture it again and again, obviously Xiao Qi wanted to get confirmation information from Ling Qingrui.
Even when he was about to pull off the black cloth at the end, Xiao Qi still glanced at Ling Qingrui, and seeing her nodding slightly, Xiao Qi pulled off the black cloth.
The items under the black cloth that Xiao Qi said should also come from Ling Qingrui's mouth, although the Bao Xi Dancing Flower is unique to the royal family of Lieliang Kingdom, it does not mean that it has not spread to the people, some time ago, Jing Mofeng happened to collect a Bao Xi Dancing Flower and gave it to Ling Qingrui.
Jing Mofeng knew that Ling Qingrui was very sensitive to these smells and other things, and I was afraid that this was the reason why she was so far away that she could know that there was a dancing flower there, but it was just ......
The green jade dolomite, a specialty of Yunshan, is strange and rare, but it does not have any special smell, how did this little woman know? Jing Mofeng couldn't help but secretly wonder.
But at this time, when everyone praised Xiao Qi, the little woman who played a vital role behind her lowered her head and only cared about eating, like a hungry little fox, and the smile in Jing Mofeng's eyes gradually deepened.
The seventh princess looked at the emperor with great joy, and stretched out her hand to support the longevity stone next to her, as if waiting for the emperor's reward, at this time, a palace maid gently walked to her side, only to see the palace maid holding a small plate in her hand, on which were a few small pastries, and a cup of tea.
"Princess, Your Royal Highness ordered the slave to send it over." The palace maid's voice was so low and soft that only the seventh princess could hear it clearly.
A trace of emotion flashed in the eyes of the seventh princess, but she didn't look at the place where the four princes were, but just elegantly picked up a small snack and put it in her mouth, and then took a sip of tea gently, and then waved her hand to let the palace maid retreat.
She has always liked to lie in bed, and she doesn't like to use breakfast, at this time her stomach is already empty, after pulling off the black cloth, her eyes are even black, if she didn't reach out to hold the longevity stone, I'm afraid she would have fallen to the ground.
Such a humiliating thing, the seventh princess naturally didn't want others to know, so she supported herself, and didn't want the four emperor brothers to send snacks in such a timely manner.
The Fourth Emperor Brother has always treated her coldly, and he didn't expect it to be a snack sent by him, you must know that she is unwell, and even the queen mother didn't notice it in the slightest!
After relieving herself, the seventh princess slowly spoke: "Father and queen mother, the son is fortunate not to be dishonored and guessed the object here, so the son has the courage to ask his father for a reward." ”
Without waiting for the emperor to speak, the queen first laughed and said, "Worry-free, is this because your father is in a good mood and took advantage of the fire to rob him?" ”
The seventh princess stomped her feet lightly and said: "Queen Mother, the sons are just taking advantage of the situation, where is there a robbery." ”
The queen smiled again, but turned to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, today's worry-free is also a great achievement, even if you don't say it, the concubines have to ask the emperor for a reward, I don't know what the emperor wants?" ”
The emperor nodded and said, "Yes, it should indeed be rewarded!" Don't worry, just say what kind of reward you want. ”
"Erchen wants ......"
Without waiting for the seventh princess to finish speaking, Rong Shengjie snorted coldly and said, "Is it too early to discuss the reward now?" ”
The seventh princess didn't hear the hidden meaning in Rong Shengjie's words, and turned around and said: "Isn't it that the prince also wants to ask my father for a reward?" Also, after all, the Lie King has traveled thousands of miles to bring such a large stone over, which is very hard, and he should be given some rewards. ”
"Hahaha...... the second prince opened his mouth to laugh, "Father, sons and sons also agree with Xiao Qi's words, this longevity stone is not easy to come by, and the father should reward the prince of Lie." ”
The reward is given by the superior to the lower, that is, it is equivalent to saying that Rong Shengjie is the emperor's courtier, how can Rong Shengjie not be angry?
Today, he was choked by the seventh princess several times and couldn't speak, Rong Shengjie's face was already very bad, and at this time, he was laughed at by the second prince, and he was even more cold, and the envoy of the Qianying Kingdom not far from him even moved slightly to the side.
However, the third prince first raised his wine glass, signaled to Rong Shengjie, and then ordered someone to send him a pot of wine, which was the best liquor in the palace and Rong Shengjie's favorite.
Then, the third prince got up and said: "Father, today is my father's birthday banquet, plus there are envoys from the three kingdoms to congratulate him, and Lieliang Kingdom has presented a natural longevity stone like a ghostly axe, which is really gratifying. ”
The words of the third prince are very reasonable, it is true that no matter what kind of thing, it should not disturb this birthday banquet, and the concubine Shu also smiled and said: "Your Majesty, the great contribution made by the seven princesses, the emperor really shouldn't hastily decide to reward, otherwise our seven princesses will be angry, why don't you give the emperor a good reward to the seven princesses later, okay?" ”
The emperor glanced at the seventh princess with a smile, and when he saw that she was really unhappy, he immediately smiled and said, "Come here without worry, come to your father's place, and tell your father what you want." The secretary can continue to drink. ”
The latter sentence, the emperor said to the ministers and the daughters, and the meaning of the emperor's words is to agree with the words of the third prince and the concubine, and will not give the seventh princess a reward at this time, the seventh princess is naturally angry, she looked at the queen mother on the phoenix throne, and saw the queen mother looking at her lovingly, as if she did not mean to blame her, and the courage in her heart couldn't help but grow.
Pouting, the seventh princess ignored the emperor's gesture to greet her, and said clearly in a soft voice: "Father, the son has already thought about what reward to want, the guarantee is a very small thing, I hope the father and the queen mother can agree to the son." ”
Hearing this, the smile on the emperor's face stiffened invisibly, but it was very well concealed, even the queen who was closest to him couldn't notice it, and the queen smiled: "This is the emperor's own favorite, and the emperor can't blame her for worry-free boldness." ”
Still smiling on his face, the emperor touched his beard and said, "Don't worry about it, let's listen to it." ”
It's just that when the seventh princess finished talking about the reward she wanted, everyone in the palace was stunned, and one of them couldn't imagine that it would be "disaster from the sky"!
