Chapter One Hundred and Eight: The Ten Princes and Dogs Are Not Allowed
Fried orchids are as delicious as fried leeks, which causes the orchids in the Lanyuan Pavilion to suffer. He Xiang also complained to Emperor Wu of Zhou about this matter. Although Emperor Wu of Zhou reprimanded Zhao Yao, it was useless, Zhao Yao still continued to steal the orchids in the Lanyuan Pavilion, and almost made He Xiangqi sick.
He Xiang had no choice but to take the orchids that were planted very well home and raised them, and those orchids that were not well planted and were of ordinary appearance were left in Lanyuan Pavilion.
Zhao Yao is now swaggering to take away a pot of orchids from Lanyuan Pavilion every day, and He Xiangqi turns a blind eye. If he could, He Xiang would like to put up a sign at the door of Lanyuan Pavilion, which read, "The Ten Princes and Dogs are not allowed to enter."
Coming to Lanyuan Pavilion every day to help, Zhao Yao became familiar with the ministers of Lanyuan Pavilion.
The ministers originally had no impression of Zhao Yao, the Ten Princes, and only knew that he was the unfavored youngest son of Emperor Wu of Zhou, but after getting along with the Ten Princes during this time, they found that the Ten Princes were eccentric, well-behaved and cute, and they were very likeable.
Zhao Yao unknowingly became a pistachio in Lanyuan Pavilion. As long as he was there, the atmosphere in Lan Yuan Pavilion was very relaxed.
Although He Xiangqi Zhao Yao stole his orchid, he still liked this Ten Princes with clear and clean eyes in his heart.
He Xiang and the ministers finally knew why the Ten Princes were not favored, because he was just a child, he had no heart or scheming at all, he was very simple and cute, and he didn't look like a prince at all.
Now, Zhao Yao doesn't go to Kunde Hall every day after school, and goes directly to Lanyuan Pavilion for lunch.
The food in Lanyuan Pavilion is still good. In addition to the lunch provided by the Imperial Dining Room, many ministers would also bring some food for themselves. They know that Zhao Yao likes to eat delicious food, and sometimes he will bring some famous dishes or local specialties from their hometown, or good dishes and snacks that their family is good at.
Zhao Yao also often brought some delicious food from the Kunde Hall to Lanyuan Pavilion and shared them with the ministers.
Sharing food will shorten the distance between each other, which makes the ministers of Lanyuan Pavilion like Zhao Yao more and more. It's a pity that Zhao Yao only has time to come over at noon every day.
In the morning, Zhao Yao was going to study in the Wende Palace. In the afternoon, he would go to the martial arts arena or the Changqin Palace, or other places to learn things. By the time he got out of school in the afternoon, the ministers of Lan Yuan Pavilion had all left work.
The words "going to work" and "getting off work" were said by Zhao Yao to the ministers. The ministers felt that these two words were very appropriate.
The Third Prince and the Seventh Prince saw that Zhao Yao often went to Lanyuan Pavilion to help, so they also followed. The ministers were more restrained when they saw them. There are ministers who have other intentions and will try to please them by all means.
Emperor Wu of Zhou learned that the three princes and the seventh prince went to Lanyuan Pavilion to help, and decreed that they were not allowed to go to Lanyuan Pavilion, hindering the four princes from cultivating history.
The three princes were of course dissatisfied with this will. Why can the four princes participate in the revision of history? Why can Zhao Yao's little kid enter Lanyuan Pavilion freely?
Zhao Yao's visit to Lanyuan Pavilion did not prevent the four princes from cultivating history, on the contrary, he often helped them find books, serve tea, send water, send things, and other things.
The Eighth Prince, who was far away in the Dragon Protection Temple, knew everything about what Zhao Yao had done in Lanyuan Pavilion.
"Your Highness, Your Highness Ten is very happy to stay in Lanyuan Pavilion." Receiving news from the palace every day, Yu Hai also knew Zhao Yao's every move in Lanyuan Pavilion.
"He wrote that I miss me, and I don't think he wants me at all." The Eighth Prince scolded with a smile, "I see that his little life in Lanyuan Pavilion is very nourishing. ”
"The Ten Highnesses are likable, and it is normal for the ministers of the Lanyuan Pavilion to like the Ten Highnesses." His Royal Highness Ten is good-looking, sensible and well-behaved, and has a sweet mouth, who doesn't like him.
"The fourth child has done a good job." The Eighth Prince knew that the Fourth Prince had deliberately let Zhao Yao go to Lanyuan Pavilion.
Yu Hai hesitated and spoke: "Your Highness, in fact, the Fourth Highness is very concerned about the Tenth Highness. ”
The eighth prince raised his eyes and glanced at Yu Hai coldly, Yu Hai's heart was cold, and he immediately raised his hand and slapped himself: "The slave has a lot of mouths." ”
"If it weren't for his good ...... tenth brother," the eighth prince said this, and did not say any more, with a touch of coldness in his eyes.
Compared with the acting king and the third prince, the person that the eighth prince hates the most is the fourth prince, and there is no reason to hate it.
Yu Hai knew that the Eighth Prince hated the Fourth Prince, so he didn't dare to say anything more.
"The tenth brother likes books on arithmetic, so you sent someone to find them, did you find them?" The eighth prince, like the fourth prince, saw that Zhao Yao liked arithmetic, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
"How many copies have been found, will you send someone back to the palace tomorrow for Your Highness the Ten?"
"When he comes to the Dragon Protection Temple, I will give it to him personally."
Yu Hai hesitated and asked, "Your Highness, is it okay that Your Highness likes arithmetic, after all, arithmetic is a sidewalk?" ”
"Arithmetic is not a sideshow." The Eighth Prince raised the corners of his mouth and mocked, "Confucianism thinks that it is the right way, and everything that is not Confucianism is the side way." In my opinion, useful knowledge is the right way, and arithmetic is important in our lives. ”
"Your Highness is right."
When it comes to Confucianism, the Eighth Prince thinks of Kong Taichang and his youngest daughter.
"You said before that Mrs. Kong left Bodhi Nunnery alone?"
"Yes, Miss Kong did not leave the Bodhi Nunnery with Mrs. Kong, saying that she would continue to stay in the Bodhi Nunnery to pray for the blessing of the former queen." After Yu Hai finished speaking, seeing that the Eighth Prince's expression was wrong, he asked suspiciously, "Your Highness, is there anything wrong?" ”
The Eighth Prince frowned, and said with a contemplative expression: "It is impossible for Mrs. Kong to leave Miss Kong alone to pray for blessings in Bodhi Nunnery, there must be a hidden secret in this. ”
"Your Highness, what do you mean?"
"You send someone to Bodhi Nunnery to investigate." The Eighth Prince already had a guess in his heart.
"Yes, Your Highness."
The Eighth Prince asked again, "Li Chuan, have they left the capital?" ”
Yu Hai replied: "The acting king asked Qian Songtao to take Li Chuan back to Jizhou, and Zhai Gui didn't leave." ”
The eighth prince rubbed the Buddha bead on his left wrist with a thoughtful expression.
Yu Hai saw that the Eighth Prince was thinking about something, so he didn't speak anymore and stood aside quietly.
After a while, the Eighth Prince opened his mouth and asked, "Are Shen Hu and Chu Ying in the temple?" ”
"Yes."
"Tomorrow night."
When Yu Hai heard this, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he immediately lowered his voice and said, "Your Highness, General Shen and they are all here, if we act, we will definitely fail." ”
The Eighth Prince picked up the teacup, gently shook the tea inside, and said with a smile: "What you want is failure." ”
Yu Hai understood what the Eighth Prince meant, "The slave maid will go and inform them immediately." He saw that the eighth prince had picked up the pen again and copied the Buddhist scriptures, so he quietly withdrew.
The eighth prince in the room was copying the "Diamond Sutra", and when he copied it, he showed a sarcastic look on his face, and his eyes were gloomy.
At this time, in the Kunde Palace, Zhao Yao was writing a letter to the Eighth Prince.
Since the Eighth Emperor followed the crown prince to the Dragon Protection Temple, Zhao Yao was worried that the Eighth Prince would be bored in the Dragon Protection Temple, and would write to him every day.
After Zhao Yao finished writing the letter, he asked the carrier pigeon to send the letter to the Dragon Protection Temple. He didn't ask his bird friend to help him deliver the letter, which was not suitable, so he used the carrier pigeon in the palace that was specially used to deliver the letter.
As soon as the Eighth Emperor finished copying the Buddhist scriptures, he saw a carrier pigeon fly to his window and look at him with its little head tilted. He chuckled, stood up and walked over to take the letter from the pigeon's lap.
When I opened the letter, what caught my eye was Zhao Yao's dog-crawling words.
[Starling, I heard that the food in the Dragon Protector Temple is delicious, is it true? 】
That's it.
This sentence was heard by Zhao Yao from Lin Xueyi.
The eighth prince smiled helplessly and dotingly: "You know how to eat." With that, he returned to his desk and picked up his pen to reply.
[The dishes, steamed buns, baked cakes, steamed buns, and dim sum of the Hulong Temple are all delicious. Tomorrow, I'll ask Yu Hai to send some for you to eat. 】
After writing the reply, the eighth prince asked the carrier pigeon to send it back.
This carrier pigeon was named Xiaoyi by Zhao Yao. During this time, it made several trips a day to and from the temple and the palace.
Zhao Yao received the reply and jumped up happily when he saw that the Eighth Emperor had sent Yu Hai to send him the food of the Hulong Temple early tomorrow morning.
Starling is so good to him, he also has to repay Starling. However, starlings don't like to eat, so he will give starlings a painting.
A few days ago, Tongxi made charcoal according to Zhao Yao's instructions.
In the past few days, Zhao Yao has been drawing with charcoal. In the dream, Zhao Yao's ability to draw was inherited by him. He's been practicing these days, and he's getting better and better.
He had just finished painting the fourth brother. In the words of Zhao Yao in the dream, it is a sketch painting.
Before, the fourth brother drew a portrait of him and gave it to him. In exchange with gifts, he also had to draw a portrait of the fourth brother and give it to him.
At this time, Liang Zhaoyi walked in and asked softly, "Are you busy?" ”
"Busy." Zhao Yao stood up and stretched a big waist, and then took the sketch of the four princes he had just drawn to Liang Zhaoyi, "Mother, look at what I painted." ”
In the past few days, Liang Zhaoyi has seen the sketches that Zhao Yao said, but now that she sees the sketches of the four princes, she is still shocked.
"It's a really good drawing."
"Isn't it exactly the same?"
"Well, it's exactly the same." Liang Zhaoyi sighed in her heart, this painting is too real.
"Mother, I'll paint it for you tomorrow."
"Okay, the concubine is waiting." Liang Zhaoyi said and handed the book in her hand to Zhao Yao, "Let's see if the concubine has made a mistake in punctuation?" ”
Since Zhao Yao remembered punctuation, he taught Liang Zhaoyi. In the past few days, Liang Zhaoyi has been practicing punctuation.
Zhao Yao took his hand, lowered his head and examined it seriously.
"Mother, you've got it all right." He praised Liang Zhaoyi in the tone of a little gentleman, "Mother, you have completely mastered the essence of punctuation, it's really great." ”
Liang Zhaoyi, who was praised by her son, pretended to be very happy: "Thank you, Your Highness Ten, for the compliment." ”
"Mother, with punctuation, isn't it convenient to read a book?"
"It's very convenient." Liang Zhaoyi said with a smile, "I will mark all the books in the study with punctuation marks during this time. ”
"Okay."
Liang Zhaoyi said: "After a while, you will teach me that pinyin." ”
Zhao Yao said very happily: "No problem. ”
"When the time is ripe, talk to your father about punctuation and pinyin." Liang Zhaoyi knew in her heart that punctuation and pinyin promotion would make reading easier. But now is not the time.
Zhao Yao said obediently: "I listen to my mother." After speaking, he remembered the stirrup matter, and hurriedly asked Liang Zhaoyi, "Mother, when did you tell your father about the stirrup?" ”
"Let's die for the queen first." In three days will be the death day of the first queen.
