Chapter Seventy-Six: The Fourth Update
In the Wende Palace, Zhao Yao raised his eyes to look at the three princes from time to time.
The Eighth Prince noticed that Zhao Yao had been secretly staring at the Third Prince, so he asked in a low voice, "Tenth Brother, what are you doing all the time staring at the Third Brother?" He suddenly thought of a possibility, and immediately asked anxiously and with concern, "What about the third brother bullying you?" ”
"No, the third brother didn't bully me." After Zhao Yao finished speaking, seeing that the eighth prince looked unbelieving, he said again, "Really, the third brother didn't bully me. Besides, the third brother doesn't bother to bully me. ”
Among all the imperial brothers, only the Nine Emperor Brothers bullied him, and the other Imperial Brothers did not bully him. The three emperor brothers did not bully him, not because they had a good heart, but because they didn't take him as an imperial brother in their eyes at all. For the Three Emperor Brothers, bullying him was tantamount to surrendering their status. In other words, he, the imperial brother, is not qualified to be bullied.
The eighth prince also knew what kind of character the third prince was, and when he heard Zhao Yao say this, he was relieved.
"Then what are you staring at the third brother?"
"Starling, what kind of person do you think the third brother is?"
The eighth prince who asked this question was slightly stunned, and then he asked puzzledly, "What are you asking this for?" ”
"Just ask."
The Eighth Prince didn't believe Zhao Yao's words, he frowned slightly, and asked, "Have you heard something?" ”
Zhao Yao had an expression of "Starling, how do you know".
The Eighth Prince lowered his voice and asked, "What have you heard?" ”
Zhao Yao looked at the Eighth Prince, and then quietly looked at the others. Seeing that no one was paying attention to the two of them, he lowered his voice and said to the eighth prince: "Starling, I heard that the third brother likes ......."
"Like what?"
"I heard that the third brother likes to eat stinky tofu." Zhao Yao said seriously.
Eighth Prince: "!!!! ”
He thought that Zhao Yao would say something serious, but he didn't expect him to say something about eating.
Zhao Yao continued to gossip with the Eighth Prince: "The third brother is always fragrant, more fragrant than my mother's concubine." I said why the third brother was so fragrant, it turned out to cover up the smell of stinky tofu. As he spoke, he smacked his lips, "Tut-tut, I really didn't expect the third brother to love stinky tofu." ”
After listening to Zhao Yao's words, the eighth prince couldn't cry or laugh in his heart.
"Where did you hear that?"
"I heard it from those eunuchs." Zhao Yao looked at the third prince again, "The third brother usually dresses himself up like a fairy, I thought he was blind, but I didn't expect him to like to eat stinky tofu, it's really unseemly." ”
The Eighth Prince sneered: "He has always liked to pretend. ”
"People like me can't eat stinky tofu, how can the third brother eat it?" He had heard that stinky tofu was delicious, and the more stinky it was, the better it tasted. But he couldn't take the stench. When I smell that stench, I want to vomit. "The smell of stinky tofu is as bad as, how can he eat it, third brother, ......" After speaking, he didn't know what he thought, covered his mouth and snickered.
When the Eighth Prince saw that he was smiling ill-intentionedly, he knew what he had in mind. Stretched out his hand and poked the corner of his mouth without dimples on the right, and said angrily, "You little villain." ”
"Starling, what's wrong with me, I didn't say anything." Zhao Yao's eyes widened innocently, "Don't wronged me. ”
"You......"
"Starling, don't tell anyone about this." Zhao Yao said, with a frightened expression on his face, shrunk his neck and said, "If we let the third brother know that we know that he likes to eat stinky tofu, the third brother will definitely not let us go." ”
"I just heard nothing." Seeing Zhao Yao staring at the Third Emperor again, the Eighth Prince pinched his little face and warned him, "If you stare at the Third Emperor Brother again, he will find out." ”
These words frightened Zhao Yao and quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at the third prince again.
The fourth prince, who was sitting in the front row of Zhao Yao, almost couldn't help laughing when he heard the conversation between Zhao Yao and the eighth prince.
"Starling, do you think the second brother will invite us to his palace for dinner?"
As soon as he heard this, the eighth prince knew what Zhao Yao was thinking: "You still want to go to the palace to eat beef?" ”
What he wanted was exposed, Zhao Yao smiled embarrassedly: "I still want to take the opportunity to go out of the palace to play." Speaking of which, I haven't been to the Daiwang Mansion yet, and you haven't been to the Starling Brother. ”
"What's there to go." The Eighth Emperor poured Zhao Yao's cold water and said, "Even if the Second Emperor Brother invites us to dinner, there will be no beef at the banquet." ”
Hearing the Eighth Prince say this, Zhao Yao remembered that except for beef in the palace, beef is not allowed in other places.
"Yes, there is no beef in the second brother's house." After speaking, he lay on the table and said with a disappointed face, "Alas, you can't eat beef until the Duanyang Festival." ”
"Don't think about eating beef, hurry up and copy the book, otherwise Mr. will punish you."
Zhao Yao hurriedly sat up straight, picked up a pen and copied what Mr. Fang Cai taught.
Just when Zhao Yao was looking forward to the early arrival of the Duanyang Festival, Sun Kui came to the Kunde Hall with the beef, fabrics, and imperial books cooked in the imperial dining room.
Sun Kui's arrival surprised Liang Zhaoyi and Yu Meiren.
"Zhaoyi Niangniang, this box is beef, which was specially given by the emperor to His Royal Highness the Ten."
"Beef?" Liang Zhaoyi looked surprised, and immediately asked suspiciously, "How could the emperor reward beef to the ten princes?" ”
"The emperor saw that His Royal Highness the Tenth likes to eat beef, so he gave all the beef left yesterday to His Highness Ten to eat."
Liang Zhaoyi: "......" didn't know what to say for a while.
"Grandpa Sun, did Yao Yao ask the emperor for beef at yesterday's banquet?" This kind of thing, my son can really do it. This kid can do anything to eat.
"That's not true, but at yesterday's banquet, His Royal Highness Ten has been eating beef, and the emperor saw it, so he gave the remaining beef from yesterday to His Highness Ten to eat." Sun Kui said more, "Niangniang, the emperor also loves His Royal Highness." ”
Liang Zhaoyi saluted in the direction of Chengguang Palace: "The concubine is the emperor for the tenth prince." ”
"Niangniang, these fabrics and books were specially ordered by the emperor, and the emperor said that they are all your favorites."
Liang Zhaoyi was flattered and said, "Your Majesty...... Concubine Xie Emperor. ”
Sun Kui didn't say much, "Niangniang, the slave and maid are leaving." ”
"Grandpa Sun has a cup of tea and then leaves."
"Niangniang, the slave maid has to go back to the imperial study to serve, so I won't drink your cup of tea." Sun Kui saluted Liang Zhaoyi, "The slave and maid are retired." ”
"There is Lao Sun Gonggong, Sun Gonggong walks slowly."
Liang Zhaoyi glanced at Gui Xing, Gui Xing understood, personally sent Sun Kui out of the Kunde Palace, and gave Sun Kui a purse with some money in it, saying that he was inviting Sun Kui to drink tea.
Sun Kui did not refuse, and accepted it generously.
In the Kunde Palace, Yu Meiren, the fifth princess, and Pan Cairen stared at the box of beef.
"I really didn't expect the emperor to reward Yao Yao with beef."
Pan Caidao: "It's the first time I've seen the emperor reward beef. ”
The fifth princess complained sharply: "Only the tenth brother has this ability, let his father reward him with beef." ”
Liang Zhaoyi thought it was a little funny, but it was also a little funny.
"For Yaoyao, there is nothing better than beef. The emperor rewarded beef, which was most to his liking. ”
Poppy smiled: "That's right." ”
Pan Cairen smiled and said, "Although the reward beef is a bit ...... But this shows that the emperor loves Yaoyao, otherwise how would the emperor know that Yaoyao likes to eat beef. ”
Liang Zhaoyi instructed Gui Xing: "Take the beef to the small kitchen and let the small kitchen burn at noon." ”
"Yes, sissy."
Liang Zhaoyi looked at a few pieces of fabric on the table, and said to the poppies, "You take some fabrics and go back to make new clothes." ”
"Sister, this is a reward from the emperor, how can we take it?"
"Sister, you'd better keep it for yourself."
"I can't use so much fabric alone, so you can take some back." Liang Zhaoyi personally selected the fabric for the poppies, "Don't be polite to me." ”
The poppies were not polite and accepted the fabric.
After the poppies left, Gui Xing asked, "Niangniang, why did the emperor suddenly give you something?" "It has not yet come to the day when the emperor came to the Kunde Palace, and the mother has not seen the emperor during this time. The emperor is so good, how can he reward things to his mother.
"I did it by the way." Liang Zhaoyi said, "The emperor should have felt that it was not appropriate to only reward Yao Yao with beef, so he gave me something by the way, and I was blessed by Yao Yao." ”
"However, the emperor remembers that you like plain fabrics, and that you like to read local chronicles." Gui Xing said with a smile, "Niangniang, the emperor has you in his heart." ”
Liang Zhaoyi just smiled at this.
"Mother, are these fabrics put away, or are they going to make new clothes for you?"
"Let's make new clothes."
"Yes, sissy." Gui Xing took the fabric and retreated.
Liang Zhaoyi picked up the imperial local chronicle, reached out and gently stroked the cover, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously raised a sweet arc.
Let's say that as soon as Sun Kui walked to the door of the imperial study, he saw King Dai and Kong Taichang walking out of the imperial study together. Dai Wang and Kong Taichang's faces were not good-looking.
Sun Kui wondered in his heart: What happened to Dai Wang and Kong Taichang, why was their faces so bad, and what happened?
The fourth is more presented.
