Chapter 41: The Son Steals the Father's Ice

When the princes and grandsons had lunch in the small dining hall, Qi Tai sneaked to the Wenhua Hall in a leisurely manner.

If you paraphrase a later saying, Qi Tai's personnel relationship is on the side of Wenhua Palace, so he has to come here for dinner because of his feelings.

The so-called Wenhua Hall is the place where His Royal Highness the Crown Prince works, reads, and banquets.

There are some subordinate officials of the Prince's Mansion here, such as the famous Huang Zicheng and Fang Xiaoru in later generations.

The relationship between the three of them was good, and they also got together at a small table to eat and chat, among which Huang Zicheng said mysteriously in the ears of the two.

"Have you two heard, today Your Majesty is holding the second grandson of the emperor, Zhu Yunxi, and swaggering by in front of the hundred officials!"

"Oh?"

"Oh!"

Qi Tai was very surprised, but Fang Xiaoru only responded lightly when he heard this, without the slightest expression on his face.

This made Huang Zicheng very hurt, and decided to ignore Fang Xiaoru, a rotten Confucian, and concentrate on gossiping with Qi Tai.

"Brother Qi, do you think Your Majesty intends to make the emperor's second grandson the heir?"

"If that's the case, then it's not in line with the law of etiquette, how can you let the eldest grandson of the emperor not stand, but set up the younger second grandson of the emperor?"

"Besides, the second grandson of the emperor, Na Mu Ne's temperament, can't afford such a heavy responsibility!"

"By the way, Brother Qi, you are responsible for enlightening the princes and grandsons, has the second grandson finished learning the 'three hundred thousand' now?"

Qi Tai shook his head when he heard this.

"Nope!"

"I just gave him a thousand-word essay today!"

When Huang Zicheng heard this, he immediately slapped the table angrily and said indignantly.

"Xiao Fang, did you hear that?"

"A teenager has only begun to learn a thousand words, even if he is an heir with such qualifications, why not eat minced meat in the future!"

When Fang Xiaoru heard this, he just stopped his chopsticks for half a beat, and continued to bury his head in cooking.

Huang Zicheng couldn't help muttering when he saw Fang Xiaoru acting like this.

"Look at what scares you, there are only a few people in the Prince's Mansion, who else can run to tell the truth!"

"Gotta gotcha, let's talk about ours, don't take care of this nerd!"

Fang Xiaoru heard Huang Zicheng scold him for being a nerd, and he was immediately unhappy.

"You're a nerd, your whole family is a nerd!"

"The main reason why I don't get involved in this matter is that I think it goes against the way of a gentleman!"

"Your Majesty is the most important etiquette, how can you do something to abolish the elder and establish the young, you are purely worrying about the sky!"

Huang Zicheng was not annoyed when he heard this, but stared at Fang Xiaoru with interest.

"Brother Qi, did you hear that, just now Saint Fang said three words, a full sixty-four words!"

"If he wasn't angry, he wouldn't have to say so much to kill!"

Huang Zicheng finished squeezing Fang Xiaoru, and looked at the other party playfully.

"Brother Fang, aren't you optimistic about Zhu Yunxi either?"

Fang Xiaoru glanced at Huang Zicheng, and then continued to bury his head in cooking.

Although he didn't say anything, he was all stirring a horse spoon in a pot, so why should he explain everything?

Huang Zicheng had already heard from Fang Xiaoru's words, the reason why this old man didn't say it was just that he didn't want to provoke right and wrong. But in his heart, he also recognizes Zhu Yunwen more.

Just when Huang Zicheng thought that the three of them had reached an agreement and unanimously supported Zhu Yunwen, the eldest grandson of the emperor, he suddenly heard Qi Tai speak.

"I have a somewhat different opinion on the matter of the two emperors and grandsons!"

Huang Zicheng immediately looked at Qi Tai in a daze when he heard this, his face full of disbelief.

In his opinion, Qi Tai is the most unlikely person to oppose the water, where does the different opinion come from?

"Brother Qi, what do you mean by this?"

"Don't be nervous, I didn't question what you meant, I just think Second Highness is not bad."

"Not bad?"

Huang Zicheng exaggeratedly touched Qi Tai's head.

"Little brother, are you mistaken, which eye do you see that the child is good?"

Qi Tai couldn't help but smile and laughed.

"I came into contact with Zhu Yunxi this morning and found that this child is like a different person. Not only has my courage become bigger, but my brain has become much smarter. ”

"I only read the first 100 words of the thousand-word text, and he memorized them all."

"It's just that when I dismantled, I wanted to teach him a lesson, but he gave me a lesson, hahaha!"

Qi Tai seemed very free and easy when he talked about his troubles, and he felt a sense of pride instead of being ashamed.

"Can he teach you a lesson?"

"How?"

Fang Xiaoru, who had been immersed in cooking, couldn't help but prick up his ears to listen when he heard this.

Seeing that the two of them were acting like this, Qi Tai had no choice but to tell the things he had learned from Zhu Yunxi in the morning, and by the way, he also told how he intimidated the prince and stood up for his younger brother Zhu Yunxi.

The two were speechless for a long time in shock.

Among them, Fang Xiaoru doesn't like to talk at all, and Huang Zicheng directly doesn't know what to say.

If the person who said this was not Qi Tai, he would not have believed a word when he was killed.

How is this possible, Zhu Yunxi actually has the courage to beat the prince, and dares to threaten and intimidate people with his uncle and grandfather?

And that Zhu Yunwen is too, how can he watch his younger brother being bullied and ignore it, and let that grandson steal the limelight.

Another thing is also very strange, where did Zhu Yunxi learn that knowledge?

Whether it's an artificial rainbow or catching the sun with ice, that's not ordinary knowledge!

Hey, no, where did he get the ice?

"Brother Qi, on such a hot day, where did Zhu Yunxi get the ice?"

"The ice was brought by Zhu Yunxi, and it has nothing to do with Zhu Yunxi."

"Then where did Zhu Yunxi get it from?"

Qi Tai said in the direction of the Prince's Mansion.

"Do you still need to think about it, of course it's the son who stole the father's ice."

Huang Zicheng was stunned when he heard this, and muttered to himself.

"Isn't the son stealing his father's soldiers an allusion to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and his crown prince Liu Ju, what does it have to do with Zhu Yunxi......

"Oh!"

"I see, you mean that the thief went to the mourning hall......"

Hearing this, Qi Tai hurriedly shushed.

"Shh

"This matter can only be understood, not spoken!"

Huang Zicheng wanted to understand this, and burst into laughter.

"You, you...... But you really have you, and you can still use allusions like this, hahaha......"

Fang Xiaoru, who had been eavesdropping with his ears pricked up, couldn't hold back a little when he heard this.

"This rebel ......"

"The son steals the father's ice...... Ha ......"

A few people laughed for a while, and then buried their heads in eating, but just as a few people were eating, a little eunuch suddenly handed over a note.

"Mr. Qi, this is His Majesty's handwritten message, please watch it alone at your convenience!"

When Qi Tai heard the "hand edict", he was ready to salute, but when he heard that he was allowed to watch alone, he knew that this was a secret decree, and the emperor did not want more people to know.

Therefore, he respectfully took the note, deliberately avoiding Fang Xiaoru and Huang Zicheng to look at the note, and after reading it, he returned the note as it was, and then bowed and saluted.

"I'm tired of the servant going back to report to Your Majesty on my behalf, and I will say that Weichen understands and will definitely satisfy Your Majesty!"

The little eunuch said that he was hard, and then took the note and went back to his life.

After the little eunuch left, Huang Zicheng and Fang Xiaoru stared at Qi Tai, Qi Tai saw the eyes of the two, and knew what the two wanted to ask, so he shook his head vigorously and said.

"Don't look at me like that, Your Majesty's handwritten edict really can't be said!"

When the two of them heard this, a flash of disappointment flashed across their faces, and they immediately continued to bury their heads in cooking.

Seeing the two of them like this, Qi Tai deliberately pretended to be stupid and said.

"By the way, where did we just go?"

The do-good Huang Zicheng raised his head and replied weakly.

"Son stealing father ice?"

Qi Tai said lightly "um" when he heard this.

"It's happening!"
