Chapter 23: Serendipity (Part II)
"At the end of the year, there is no shortage of fish and rice. The shallow grass covers the horns of the cow, and the fence reflects the horse's hooves. The shadow of the cow in the west of the village of sunset returns. I looked at the riddles and shook my head, "Hey! It's so hard, I'm afraid I'm going to go back empty-handed today. ”
Mingda listened with great interest to me after reading the riddles just now, thought for a while, and then instructed the eunuch of the East Palace: "Take down these three lanterns, the riddles are scales, turnips, and poles." As she spoke, she walked to the palace gate, where there was a table for guests to write down their riddles.
The little eunuch had already obediently taken down the three splendid lanterns and praised them flatteringly: "The princess is wise! ”
When Mingda returned to me, he still had two riddles in his hand: "Jingjing, you must know the answer to these two." ”
When I got closer, I saw that there were "holes without insects, nests without peaks, silkworms without silkworms, and umbrellas without people." The other read, "Wearing a Zhou Yu hat and a flying robe." calls himself Sun Bofu, and his temper is like Ma Chao. I thought about it and blurted out: "It's lotus root and crickets!" ”
"Hahahaha......" For a while, the East Palace was filled with the joyful laughter of me, Mingda, Yuhan, and Yunqing.
"Oh, Mingda, you are in such a hurry, it seems that the mothers, princes and princesses of the other palace have no hope of seizing the jade jade Ruyi." The prince's cold voice floated from behind.
We hurriedly turned around and said hello to the prince. After that, Mingda smiled and said, "The things that my father gave to my eldest brother must be the best." It's just that at a young age, how dare I compete with the mothers and concubines of the palace for that grand prize. I'm here to give something back to my eldest brother. ”
"Oh?" The prince looked at us suspiciously.
Mingda gestured to Yuhan, who stepped forward with understanding, brought the delicate flower basket he was carrying in his hand to the prince, and lifted the velvet blanket on the flower basket. Inside there is a mighty sleep.
The prince was surprised, took a step back, and then came to his senses, wanting to snatch the flower basket from Yuhan's hand.
Yuhan was prepared, and retreated behind me unhurriedly.
The prince could no longer pretend to be calm and relaxed, and asked urgently, "How can it be in your hands?" ”
"Does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince want to ask, how is it still alive? What is wrong with it that His Highness the Crown Prince should mistreat it so much, that it should be killed? "As long as I think of the sins that Wei Wu suffered in the Prince's East Palace, I will be filled with righteous indignation.
"What do you mean, Changshan? It's not enough for you to frame Prince Ben once, you want to frame him once. Do you really need your father to punish you with capital punishment before you can repent? "I don't know if it's because of my weak heart, the prince seems a little weak to ask me.
However, after all, the prince has been dealing with political affairs for a long time, and his ability to deal with situations is far beyond the ability of a child like mine, so he quickly seized my loophole and counterattacked: "Changshan, weren't you grounded in Luo Yingxuan by your father?" And how did you get Prince Ben's mastiff? How did you know that it almost died? ”
In the face of the prince's series of questions, I seemed a little at a loss and unable to speak.
"Big brother, the mastiff was accidentally discovered by Mingda in the plum garden outside the Anren Hall a few days ago. Because Mingda was weak since childhood, he knew that he could not take care of it, so he told Jingjing what had happened, and entrusted the mastiff to her. Since the eldest brother is too busy with political affairs to take care of the mastiff, can you consider handing it over to Jingjing to take care of it? Mingda's gentle voice sounded at the right time and relieved me.
Hearing Mingda's plea for me, I immediately knelt down and begged the prince: "Chang Shan is willing to share the worries of His Royal Highness the crown prince and take care of the royal mastiff." ”
