Chapter 10:-for-tat (I)

After chatting with Taishi Wei for a few words, the father hurriedly left the Chongwen Pavilion amid the congratulations of everyone. The crown prince and the king of Wei stayed. Although they are adults and can participate in political affairs, they still need to study in Chongwenkan every day. Of course, they learn more about statecraft.

King Jin and Mingda had already returned to their seats to learn the new content of today's Taishi, and I hurried back to my seat to practice writing. For a while, the Chongwen Pavilion was quiet again, and only the whispers of the Taishi discussing issues with the crown prince and the king of Wei remained.

I no longer paid attention to the crown prince and the king of Wei, and began to practice calligraphy by heart. I thought in my heart about the three elements of writing that Taishi said, "starting the pen against the front, writing in the center, and collecting the pen back to the front", but my hands did not listen to the call, either the writing was crooked, or the hands were shaking so much that the ink was spilled on the paper.

Mingda must have seen my frustration, because she had quietly walked behind me, and then took my right hand with her right hand, and whispered in my ear: "Jingjing, writing is the most taboo and impetuous." You're just starting to learn now, so you have to write slowly, stroke by stroke. Slowly you will find that this one is no longer naughty and can completely obey your orders. ”

With that, her hand began to strain slightly. Under her leadership, the pen in my hand was very obedient to write a horizontal, and then a horizontal, a skimm, and a word jumped on the paper.

I seemed to have mastered the trick inside, and after Mingda let go, I wrote down a heavenly character on my own, and it was really much better than what I had written before.

"That's it, Jingjing, you're very smart, you can learn it!" Mingda encouraged me.

I smiled comfortably at her and was full of gratitude. For a while, I became so engrossed in writing that I forgot where I was.

"The servant knocks on His Royal Highness the Prince."

"Get up."

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the imperial dining room has prepared lunch for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the princes and princesses, may I ask His Royal Highness the Prince, can you pass the meal now?"

Only then did I realize that I had been pulled to Chongwen Pavilion by Mingda before breakfast, and now I am already hungry.

I only heard the prince whisper one word: "Biography!" ”

"Yes! The minions immediately went to arrange. ”

After a while, the various palace maids and eunuchs, under the leadership of the chief chef of the Shanggong Bureau, put various dishes on the table in the side hall of the Chongwen Pavilion. I don't know when the master has left, and I don't even know it.

The prince gave an order: "Come with me to dinner." ”

I hurriedly put down the brush in my hand, walked behind Mingda, and entered the side hall. The table was already filled with bird's nest chicken soup, fish belly simmered ham, hibiscus eggs, goose cheek soup, pear slices with steamed civets, steamed deer tail, pine lion's mane mushrooms, hibiscus cakes, crystal plum buns, and many other dishes and snacks that I had never seen before.

I didn't have the heart to study it carefully, and when the prince moved his chopsticks, I couldn't wait to pick up a piece of hibiscus cake and put it in my mouth, and I was now anxious to fill my empty stomach first. Mingda thoughtfully instructed the palace maid on the side to serve me a bowl of bird's nest chicken soup.

"Changshan, didn't your discipline grandmother teach you how to eat?" The prince suddenly spoke a lesson, his words full of contempt.

I was gobbling it up when I suddenly heard the prince's reprimand, and I choked in fright.

"Big brother, Jingjing is still young..."Mingda helped me out of the siege, but was interrupted by the prince mercilessly.

"Jinyang, why have you become disrespectful now? In front of outsiders and subordinates, he called me big brother! ”

"I ......" Mingda obviously didn't expect the prince to refute her, and retorted aggrievedly, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, Chang Shan is not an outsider, she is the same as her sister, she is also the princess of the Tang Dynasty." ”
