Chapter 74: Shine
The next day, Jiang Yuqing packed up and entered the palace with his things.
Today is Jing Yan's birthday, and it is said that his birthday as the prince of a country must be very grand.
But the emperor and queen are not extravagant, and Jing Yan himself has no special requirements.
Therefore, the East Palace only held a small luncheon, inviting only their own siblings, as well as some well-connected companions and friends.
Jiang Yuqing is the only girl Jing Yan personally invited. When she arrived, the East Palace was already very lively.
The royal heirs are not abundant, and there are only two sons and three daughters alive today, except for the eldest princess who has married far away, they are all here today. Among them, the seven-year-old second prince Jing Ji is still seeing him for the first time.
Because he was born with a cripple, he has a low self-esteem. Moreover, his biological mother, Concubine Li, is not favored, and her family is not visible.
Therefore, in addition to going to the study to attend classes on weekdays, most of the rest of the time, he just stays in his palace and rarely goes out.
The third princess read with two companions, or perhaps playmates.
She is already in time, and she is the eldest among the princes and princesses present. It's time to select a colt for the New Year.
The seventh princess is also fourteen years old. Her companions are also all daughters of the family.
Jiang Yuqing also had several encounters with them when he entered the palace. It's just that because of their age, they will subconsciously treat Jiang Yuqing as a child and exclude them from their small group. Polite with detachment.
Jiang Yuqing had already learned this kind of thing, and she didn't care much about it.
There is a saying in the previous life, if you don't have your own circle, don't melt hard, even if you barely squeeze in, the possible result is not what you want.
She is also busy left and right, and she doesn't have much effort to make friends for the time being.
There was an occasional Wei Lingyun who had been talked about before, and I may not have seen it for a long time.
In the meantime, Wei Lingyun also came to the Hou Mansion to look for her, but at that time she was busy with Qingmeisu's affairs, either in the laboratory or on the way to the laboratory. Wei Lingyun came twice and didn't find anyone, so he had to give up.
After Jiang Yuqing found out, he only sent people to send gifts twice, which was regarded as an apology.
Fortunately, Wei Lingyun also knew that what she was doing was very important, and she didn't take it to heart. Just let someone bring her a message, and when she is not busy, we will meet to play together.
In addition to several princes and princesses, there were also two companions of Jing Yan, namely Sun Yuanji, the eldest grandson of the Zhenguo Mansion, and Cheng Dingzhao, the grandson of the Anguo Mansion.
The two companions of the second prince, Lu Jiu'an, the grandson of the Pingxi Hou Mansion, and the eldest grandson of the Song family, the mother of the second prince. Most of them are teenagers in their eighties and teens.
The gifts given by everyone are packed in very valuable small boxes.
Only Jiang Yuqing, holding a big guy who blocked half of her small body, walked over with a sigh, and attracted everyone's attention as soon as he came.
Everyone is curious, what kind of gift this little guy has prepared, why is it so big.
Jing Yan hurriedly came out and took the big gift box in her hand, and said warmly: "With such a heavy box, why don't you let someone hold it." What to do if you wrestle? ”
Jiang Yuqing smiled and said: "Birthday gifts, of course, have to be given by hand to make sense." Brother Yan, Happy Birthday! ”
"Thank you!" Jing Yan hugged the box with one hand and touched her little head.
"Little county lord, what did you take, so big?" A young man wondered.
Jiang Yuqing said: "The gift has been sent, you have to ask its current owner." ”
Jing Yan was also curious about what strange things the little guy had sent him this time. Then he said: "Don't guess, just open it for you to see." ”
As he spoke, he put the box on the desk, and everyone gathered around curiously.
I opened the beautifully carved wooden box and took out a silvery-white thing with a very strange shape. A round base with a large hood on top of the head, the top of the hood is flat, with a strange dark blue grid on it.
The whole looks like a strange big mushroom, and it looks like a canopy propped up by the emperor when he travels, but there is an extra base.
None of you have seen it, so you don't know what it's for. Even Jing Yan could only look at her and shook her head.
Jiang Yuqing smiled and gave everyone a vaccination: "This is given to me by the master." A treasure handed down from the master is called the table lamp, which is a special lighting lamp, which is best used for reading and writing. The light is bright and soft and does not hurt the eyes.
I heard that it came from far away overseas. That's it.
Later, a certain ancestor in the valley invited a master of the previous dynasty to transform it.
A special set of mechanisms is installed inside its body, allowing it to change color. ”
Hearing her words, everyone became more curious. Especially the two companions who are close to Jing Yan.
They knew that several strange small objects in the prince's hands were all gifts from the county lord of Linghui, and they turned out to be from far overseas.
The thing that makes them most greedy is a toy called "car", which runs away as soon as it twists the clockwork next to it, and it is fast. It's a pity that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince easily didn't let him see it, and hid it very tightly.
Today, seeing that she was holding such a big guy again, I was curious to ask.
Seeing that everyone was quiet, Jiang Yuqing pressed the sensor switch with one finger, and the desk lamp immediately turned on. The soft, bright and comfortable light envelops a one-meter radius.
Seeing this, there was an immediate exclamation of surprise around him.
Jiang Yuqing then pressed it again, and the table lamp immediately brightened by one degree. Again, everyone said: "Wow".
Jiang Yuqing then pressed, the table lamp brightened a little brighter and brighter, then changed color, changed color, and then became colorful, purple and red. Turn off the lights at the end!
All the people in the main hall, including the palace maids and eunuchs, never closed their mouths.
The exclamation almost toppled the roof, attracting curious glances from the Imperial Guards patrolling outside.
What kind of rare treasure did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince get today, making these princes and princesses with eyes above the top shout so disrespectfully.
After Jiang Yuqing finished the demonstration, he said, "This table lamp is not always so bright, it needs a certain amount of energy to drive." ”
Then she pointed to the solar panel on the top of the lamp and said, "This place is called a solar panel, and it collects sunlight and converts it into the driving energy of the lamp."
If the energy of the lampstand is not enough to light up, you need to put it in the sun for two hours so that you can continue to use it. ”
"Oh my God, this baby is so bad. It can absorb the sun's rays for its own use. I've learned a lot today. ”
And it is much brighter than a candle flame, the light is soft and stable, and it does not sway. The most important thing is to make it bright and dark, and let it be dark.
Jiang Yuqing said: "We go out and sit in a sedan chair, using manpower. If you are riding in a horse-drawn carriage, you will use animal power, and if you are riding a boat, you will use the power of water and wind.
We dry our clothes and quilts on weekdays, but we don't use the power of the sun's rays. There are many kinds of forces in nature, and there are many uses in our lives, but you have not noticed them before. ”
After she said this, everyone suddenly realized that it seemed to be the case. In the past, everyone didn't have much contact with her, but I heard that she was very smart, and when I saw her today, she was really very smart.
What were they doing when they were her age?
Secretly digging in the mud to play, or in order to want a puppy with the elders of the family, coquettish?
But people can already see these things clearly. This is the gap, and I have to serve.
After everyone saw it, the table lamp was carefully put away by Jing Yan.
The group moved to the small garden of the East Palace to play a game of pitching pots. happened to come with God and came with him, followed by several palace concubines.
The emperor was in high spirits and promised a few antiquities from the previous dynasty as a colorful head. Let them race to pitch pots.
The rule is to compete four rounds of five arrows each. The results of the four rounds are added together, and the corresponding jackpots are taken according to the ranking.
For a while, everyone's enthusiasm was mobilized. No one was short of one or two things, but the meaning of the royal gift was different.
Everyone tried their best to win the game.
After the final competition, Jing Yan won the first place with 20 full arrows. The second prince, Jing Hong, tied for second place with 18 arrows and Cheng Dingzhao, the grandson of the Guogong Mansion.
The three princesses ranked third with 15 teams........ Jiang Yuqing with 0 branches, and the first from the bottom.
Although she played at home, she almost never hit because of her young age and lack of arm strength.
Now that she's a monk, she's not as good as she used to be, and she can easily throw herself into it even without spells.
Monks are tantamount to cheating on mortals.
It's just a game, and to do so is to lose the fun of the game itself.
Therefore, everyone has gained more or less, only she is empty-handed.
The Emperor asked her, "Girl, what do you have to say?" ”
Tuanzi held his head high and said unashamedly: "Friendship first, competition second, the emphasis is on participation." This answer amused everyone present.
Empress Qin gently touched her little head and comforted her: "That's right, it's about participation." Our Linghui is still young, and if we fight again next year, we will surpass them one day and take the first place. ”
Tuanzi crossed his waist and said loudly: "Ang, that's it!" Don't be too busy laughing at me. The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the front waves die on the beach. When I'm a little older, I'll shoot you all on the beach one day! ”
So, everyone laughed even more, and at the same time thought that this kid was so funny. In the future, if there are any activities, you can take her with you.
After that, it was a lively luncheon.
The emperor and empress took the concubines to a table, the two brothers Jingyan read a table with their companions, and the two princesses read with their companions.
Jiang Yuqing originally wanted to get together with the princesses, but before she could act, she was pulled by Jing Yan to his side, and she sat down.
The two of them poured vegetables and water from each other, and you were not very attentive to me, but Jing Yan waited for her a lot.
Originally, she didn't feel anything, because that's how she and Jing Yan get along on weekdays. It wasn't until she saw that several young men at the same table were frowning and winking that she felt that something was wrong.
When she looked up, she saw that everyone was looking at her, and then she realized that she had made a big mistake. The brain exploded with a bang.
The dumplings have a packet of rice in their mouths, and they don't chew it, and they don't chew it. His cheeks were bulging, like a fat rabbit that had been caught, stupid and cute.
Fortunately, she has always been thick-skinned, and after a short period of confusion, she reacted immediately and chewed the things in her mouth and swallowed them. Pretended to be stupid and said: "You all watch what I do, the food is delicious, why don't you eat it." ”
Empress Qin smiled meaningfully: "It's really delicious." Eat as much as you like, and leave them alone. ”
While winking at his son.
Jing Yan turned his gaze away and didn't dare to look at his mother, and the roots of his ears were red.
However, this guy has a tendon, and he will not give up his feeding behavior because his behavior will attract strange eyes from others.
None of you are stupid, and you understand something in an instant. As a result, the table quickly returned to its previous liveliness.
After eating, when you rest. When the emperor heard that her son had a very rare baby, she forced her son to take it out in the name of common appreciation.
After seeing the miracle of the table lamp, it was also very strange for a while. However, I also know that such magical overseas treasures are hard to find, and after seeing them, it's just a matter of seeing them.
Bian Que Valley has been inherited for nearly 600 years, and it is not surprising that there are several treasures. There are also a lot of treasures in his private treasury, not worse than these two things.
After the emperor and concubines left. Leave the young man and continue to play in the East Palace.
The dumplings were full, a little sleepy, leaned back in the chair and yawned, and tears came out.
She wanted to go home and sleep, but everyone was playing here, and the interest was still so high, she was embarrassed to go first. Leaning on it, I fell asleep like that.
Jing Yan played crossword puzzles with them, and when he saw that the little guy hadn't moved for a long time, he was a little uneasy, so he was busy looking around. As soon as Fang turned his head, he saw the little girl who had curled up in the chair and slept like a piglet.
He held up a finger and made a silent gesture.
Then, he walked over gently, picked her up, walked back to his dormitory, put her on his bed, and covered her with a quilt.
and whispered to the eunuch and palace maid to take care of her, and then turned around and went out.
