Chapter 32: Duan Gongzi
This afternoon, the big essay was released, and the middle ones were naturally overjoyed, some of them cried on the street, those who didn't win were naturally sad, and some of them cried on the street.
Su Xiaofeng hit the list, diluting some of the frustration of being frustrated by Wang Li yesterday. Today, the same year on the same list invited him to drink, and he also refused, and was dedicated to preparing for the planning of the talent ceremony.
After two days of normal nothing, when it came to the ceremony, Li Yunchuan had to go to the palace for the main examination, so he changed into his official uniform early in the morning and hurriedly entered the palace, and did not come back until sunset.
After changing into regular clothes, Li Yunchuan found Wang Li, who had nothing to do, and said: "At the beginning of tomorrow, Xiaoli will go to the palace on time, and when someone will pick you up, you just need to report my name." ”
Wang Li was overjoyed and said: "These few days can be regarded as suffocating me, thank you Brother Xianliu, haha!"
Li Yunchuan laughed, "Who in Yiyang City doesn't know about your 'Linjiang Immortal' these days? Linjiang Tower has been trampled on by people these days, and everyone is singing about the 'Yangtze River'! Xiaoli is at home and the world is hearing it! Hahaha!"
This Da Yao is backward in communication, and he is very fast in spreading poetry.
At the end of the second day, Wang Li borrowed a carriage from Cao's mansion and rushed to the palace.
Liu Yan and Cao Mingwang, the two old men, actually forgot about him, they were really ungrateful, disrespectful to the old, and Brother Xianliu was considerate.
Wang Li scolded Old Man Liu along the way, feeling that his morals were inferior and he couldn't have a deep friendship.
Today, the front door of the palace is reserved for the top ten literary saints and literary sages in the Cai Cai Ceremony, and even the courtiers can't go.
Wang Li stopped outside the gate of the east city wall, told the guards the name of Li Yunchuan, and passed through the Guangde Gate in the east without hindrance.
After the Guangde Gate, there were ministers to take the lead, Wang Li bribed some silver taels, and the eunuch knew that this young man was entrusted by Scholar Li and got money, so he was very concerned.
"Prince Wang, Your Majesty is in the Taihua Hall to see Su Wensheng, you go to the dining house with our family first, and when the time comes, our family will pick up the son and go to Longchi. ”
"Su Wensheng?"
"Exactly, Wen Sheng, who was handpicked this time, is the son of Yu Geqing, and as early as in the capital, Feilian Gongzi is known to everyone, and no one knows it, he is really the pride of the sky!"
Wang Li thought of the rumors circulating that Su Xiaofeng was trampled on by himself, and he felt a lot of emotion in his heart, how could he be a better person than Wen Sheng.
The eunuch took Wang Li to a room in the dining room, which did not look like a kitchen, but had a table and chairs, and it was pleasant to stay.
"Thank you, nobleman. ”
Da Yao didn't have a eunuch, and he was called a nobleman if he heard it well.
The eunuch said a few words of humility, and then hurried away, and before leaving, he repeatedly told Wang Li not to move around, and if anyone asked, he said that it was "an attendant arranged by Scholar Li."
When the eunuch had gone, Wang Li sat down in his chair and rested for a while, and soon his stomach became hungry. At first, I could endure it, but I don't know when Wang Li smelled a burst of fragrance, and his stomach kept ringing.
Wang Li really couldn't stand it, so he went out carefully, but he forgot the eunuch's words.
Avoiding the crowd and going inside, the dining room was not as clean as the place where Wang Li had been staying, and the number of people who sprinkled and carried water and lit the fire to cook was very large.
Seeing that he had hid in a corner of the kitchen, and was about to scavenge some things to pad his empty stomach, when he saw a figure flickering by the stove, Wang Li walked over to take a look, and found that it was an acquaintance who had his back to him.
Wang Xingzhong was happy, walked over and patted the man on the shoulder, and said, "Duan Gongzi, why are you here?"
Yao Weixue was slapped on the shoulder, and she was so frightened that her face was discolored, and the pastry and snacks in her hand fell on the stove.
She hurriedly turned around and exclaimed, "Who?"
"Duan Gongzi, it's me!
Yao Weixue looked at Wang Li blankly, she couldn't have imagined that the person she had met in Yucheng a few days ago had actually met her again in the palace!
It's over! I've been caught stealing food! It's a shame!
Looking at Wang Li with a smile on his face in front of him, Yao Weixue's brain was blank at this time.
Knowing that there was a Qionglin banquet today, she begged the queen mother last night to allow her to participate in it, but was rejected by the queen mother's sentence "The princess is self-esteem, and it is not appropriate to throw her head". She was unwilling, so with the help of Qing'er, she disguised herself as a man and secretly hid in the dining room, letting Qing'er take away the employees in this room, planning to mix in the dragon pool again at some point.
But I hid in the dining room early, and before it was time, my stomach began to make trouble.
Princess Yao, who had never been hungry, could stand it, so she looked for snacks to eat on the stove, and happened to be bumped into by Wang Li.
"It's over, it's over, how can he be here! If he says it, I won't have the face to see anyone!"
Yao Weixue was so anxious that her tears were about to fall, she was dizzy, and she completely forgot that she had changed her clothes, and now she was Duan Subai and "Duan Gongzi".
Wang Li couldn't help but panic when he saw Yao Weixue staring at him, not saying a word, and his eyes were red, as if he was about to cry.
"This sissy cannon, shouldn't you cry! If this lures people over, it's hard to say. ”
Thinking of this, Wang Li hurriedly asked, "Duan Gongzi, what's wrong with you? Did you hurt you just now?"
"Ahh
Yao Weixue came back to her senses, and her eyes lit up when she heard Wang Li's question.
"That's right, I'm Duan Subai now, but I'm not the eldest princess!" Yao Weixue looked at Wang Li in front of her, and suddenly chuckled, "This person is also stupid enough, I can't see it......"
"Hmm!" she cleared her throat, "I'm fine, I was scared by Brother Wang Li just now, it's okay." ”
Wang was speechless, your face became too fast.
"Is Su Bai also a scholar from Tuoli University who came to attend the Qionglin Banquet?"
Yao Yanxue was stunned for a moment when she heard this, she was worried that there was no excuse, and she hurriedly said nonsense: "Yes, I asked Mr. Xianliu to bring me here." Does Wang Gongzi also know Mr. Xianliu?"
"Whew! that's a long story. ”
Wang Li smiled bitterly, and went lightly and seriously, and told the experience of being pitted by Liu Yan all the way.
"In the end, it is still Brother Xianliu who is righteous, then Old Man Liu is really bad. ”
Yao Weixue looked at Wang Li in surprise, he was called Humble by Old Man Liu on the left and Old Man Liu on the right, and now he is called Brother and Brother Brother with Mr. Xianliu, this tone is not insignificant.
"Su Bai, did the eunuch tell you, when will he pick us up?" Wang Li picked up a snack from the stove and stuffed it into his mouth, "It's all in time, but we have to starve to death." ”
Someone was there, Yao Weixue was embarrassed to eat again, looking at Wang Li's wolfing appearance, she swallowed her saliva and said, "I heard that the Qionglin banquet is at the end of the day, and there is still half an hour. ”
Dinner at seven?
Wang Xingzhong couldn't help but scold, this Nima is going to starve to death! He was thinking about this royal dinner, but he didn't eat lunch!
Swallowing a few more soft glutinous snacks, Wang Li saw that Yao Wanxue was stunned and didn't move, so he handed one to her, "Su Bai also quickly pad his stomach, there is still a long time before he can eat, don't be hungry." ”
Yao Weixue looked at Wang Li, who had no scruples, most of the scholars she knew were self-denying, and there was no person with such a true temperament as Wang Li, this feeling could only be felt in Mr. Xianliu, but the two were not very similar, this prince seemed to be very different.
She chuckled and said, "Isn't it that Wang Li's brother came to the Qionglin banquet just to have a dinner?"
"Ahem. ”
Seeing through the purpose, Wang Li put the pastry into Yao Wanxue's hand, and was caught by Wang Li, Yao Wanxue was so shocked that she quickly broke free before holding the pastry.
"Su Bai, you too, big man, what's wrong with touching your hands. Wang Li blamed Yao Weixue for making a fuss, and then covered it up in a tone: "It's not for a meal, I just want to make more friends with my eldest Yao Yingcai." ”
It's strange to believe you!
Yao Weixue's little hands were hinged together, still resentful of Wang Li's "rudeness", and the two didn't know what to say, so they were silent.
Wang Li was worried about how to appease this "Duan Niangzi", but when he heard broken footsteps outside the room, Wang Li couldn't help but be a little nervous, there was no suitable place to hide in this room, so he blocked Duan Subai behind him, muttering the words left by the eunuch in his heart, thinking of countermeasures.
When the man entered the house, he found that it was Duan Subai's maid, the little girl who had a lot of opinions about him.
Wang Li put down his heart, this white guts are really big enough, he hid in the kitchen to steal food, and let the maid go out to let the wind out, I can't think of being a girl, and the style is quite gentle.
It's just that why is this girl dressed in palace clothes?
Qing'er heard some news outside the Taihua Palace, so she hurriedly came to inform Yao Yanxue.
When she entered the door and saw Wang Li, the little girl was stunned, today Wang Li changed into a white robe, not like the short brown of that day, although it was short hair, but it was quite chic and upright, so Qing'er couldn't recognize it for a while.
"You, who are you?"
Duan Subai was worried that Qing'er would leak his mouth, so he stepped forward and grabbed Qing'er, "This is the prince I met in Yucheng that day, Qing'er, why did you come back? Did Scholar Li ask you to come? Do you have anything to say?"
Seeing that Yao Weixue kept making her eyes, Qing'er had a tacit understanding, "Well, Scholar Li was talking to Su Wensheng with His Majesty in the Taihua Palace, saying that it was not early, and I was afraid that the Queen Mother would be inconvenient, so I went to Longchi in advance to set up a Qionglin banquet." Scholar Li instructed Qing'er to inform Gongzi to go to Longchi in time to attend the Qionglin banquet. ”
Qing'er looked at Wang Li, and wondered in her heart, why did he come to the palace too?
Although the little girl doesn't like Wang Li, but not to the extent of hating, today I saw Wang Li's good style, but she won't be sarcastic, but I wonder why he is also in the palace, why is he going to the Qionglin banquet?
Wang Li naturally didn't remember a little girl's hatred, and when he heard that the Qionglin banquet was advanced, he was overjoyed, and said to Yao Yanxue: "Su Bai, since the Qionglin banquet is in advance, let's go quickly, but it can't be late." ”
