Chapter 253: Likes and Dislikes
As soon as the second prince got on the car, he felt a warm breeze blowing in his face, it was late autumn, and the carriage burned a small brass stove, which was lit with fine silver frost charcoal, and incense tablets were put on the carbon, and with the burning of the fire, a faint fragrance lingered.
Today, Bai Xiyun accompanied the emperor to play Go, and as soon as he fell into a white game, he heard the second prince get into the carriage, and looked back and smiled at him kindly.
The second prince also smiled back, saluted the emperor first, and then sat down next to Bai Xiyun, and said with a smile: "Father and emperor have met an opponent again." ”
"No, it's fun to play chess with this kid. The emperor dropped a chess, picked up the pink butterfly tea bowl and took a sip of tea, in front of the second prince, he did not hesitate to love Bai Xiyun, contrary to the appearance of the iron-faced emperor on weekdays, and said with a smile: "His mind is clear, he can see ten steps when he takes one step, and he will make a sleeve, which will make him stumble, the most important thing is that he knows when to put it away, and he always hangs on people's hearts, and gives you a sweet date when you are most proud, or when you are about to be frizzy and angry." You're a real reader. ”
The second prince rarely saw the emperor praise a person with such eyebrows. At least the emperor has always been a serious king to him, a strict father.
Of course he knew how pertinent the emperor's praise of Bai Xiyun was, and he knew that Bai Xiyun was extremely smart since he was a child. It's just that his body is weak, which greatly restricts his development. The second prince has always felt that this is the pity of his friend, and he has helped him in many ways, but now that his body is getting better, his talent has also been revealed, but he feels a little complicated in his heart, and he can't tell whether it is pure happiness or a little pimple.
But I'm still happy for him anyway.
"What my father said is that Zijin has been very smart since he was a child. We read the same book, and Master Gu always praised him. The second prince smiled.
When the emperor heard this, he became interested, "Oh, tell me what the Gu Qing family says about him?"
It is extremely rare for the emperor to be so interested, although Bai Xiyun has not been driving for a long time, but he also knows a little about his temperament, I am afraid that such excitement and curiosity is extremely rare for a person, he knows the truth that things must be opposed, and he also knows the truth that the first bird dies first, especially with the second prince, the "genuine" prince.
I am afraid that the second prince has always had the mystery of his life experience in his heart, whether he believes it or not, it is a curse or a blessing to let the emperor hold him like this.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King De is warm-hearted and kind-hearted, and he has been taking care of Weichen since he was a child, and now this is obviously a good word for the minister in front of you. Bai Xiyun sighed and said: "The physical condition of the minister back then, even if I can read a book, what can I read?" Master Gu often said that I was 'more than intelligent, but not enough anxious', coupled with my physical condition, it would be difficult to become a big man if I took the right way in the future." ”
"This old thing, what is it saying, what is it, if you take the right way, it will not be able to become a big thing. "The emperor is very optimistic about Bai Xiyun, although Gu Jinzhong is a generation of Confucianism, and the emperor is very important, but he also knows that Gu Jinzhong is a wooden sour person, he is used to being pedantic on weekdays, and his evaluation of Bai Xiyun is too unrealistic in his opinion.
The second prince heard that there were mixed tastes, and none of them, the legitimate princes, had received such praise since they were young.
But Bai Xiyun's explanation was enough to show his thoughts, and it made the second prince's heart feel a little more comfortable.
Bai Xiyun continued to chat, while talking with the emperor, the second prince accompanied him to watch the game, although he was silent when watching chess, he also traced every move in his heart, if it was him, how would he go. Sometimes he didn't understand why Bai Xiyun had to give a flaw to the chess pieces that he could have won, and sometimes he couldn't understand his chess moves but won inexplicably.
However, when a game of chess was divided, and the emperor won Bai Xiyun by one son, not only patting his knees and laughing, the second prince vaguely understood why the emperor liked to play chess with Bai Xiyun so much.
On top of the strategy, Bai Xiyun really won a bit.
Fortunately, this person is his own young master.
In the mind of the second prince, although he is only the king of De now, he is the first of all the princes to be crowned king, and he also believes that he will be the crown prince.
The Emperor's laughter spread out of thin air, and the people who followed him could hear it clearly.
The third prince and the fourth prince, who had been riding their horses for a while, glanced at each other, and their faces couldn't help but show some displeasure and complexity.
The third prince and the fourth prince are from Concubine Wu and Concubine Yu respectively, the ability of the mother family is not comparable to that of Concubine Wan, and the position of the mother concubine is far less than that of the second prince's mother, plus the third prince and the fourth prince are both sixteen or seventeen years old, and they have not yet been crowned kings and have not established a mansion.
They had to go to the study on weekdays to study, but because they rarely participated in court affairs, they couldn't even get close to the emperor.
They feel that they are stupid to study. I don't even know what's going on outside, so I don't know how much more I will fall than the second prince.
At this time, Qi Miao was nesting in Wan Guifei's carriage and taking a nap with soft pillows, Wan Guifei and her were relatively lazy, both of them were covered with snow-white velvet blankets, but they were intimate as if they were lying on a kang.
For Wan Guifei, Qi Miao is her genuine daughter-in-law, because she cured Bai Xiyun, her heart is full of gratitude to her, and Qi Miao really likes it.
For Qi Miao, Wan Guifei is her real mother-in-law, and she is a hard-working woman who is struggling in the deep palace with a thousand catties of burden and family honor.
When the two are together, there are many times when they don't need such chattering heart-to-heart conversations between women, but they can circulate a tacit understanding in silence. For example, when the two princes were outside the carriage just now, they could understand each other's thoughts and cooperate tacitly.
The carriage swayed, the road conditions were bumpy, and the golden phoenix steps on Wan Guifei's head swayed, she couldn't sleep, so she just quietly looked at the "daughter-in-law" who was beside her. The more I watched, the more I liked it, and the more I watched, the more I hoped that I would one day be able to integrate into Bai Xiyun's life.
But I'm afraid I won't have this opportunity in this life.
knew that it would become like this now, and she really shouldn't have agreed to her parents' request back then. It really shouldn't have been exchanged between that kid and the Bai family, thus burying such a big bane.
Father always said that Bai Yongchun was not a fool, so he would not talk about this kind of thing to lead to death.
But now she can see clearly, the Bai family can't figure it out at all, the female dependents are all two hundred and five, and they can even do the thing of driving away their daughter-in-law, what else can't be done?
Concubine Wan remembered what her mother had said to her before she entered the palace about how to deal with the Bai family......
