[Qing] Princess is the first cute
Chapter 15
"Ten years of life and death are boundless, without thinking, never forgetting, a lonely grave thousands of miles away, no place to talk about desolation..."
In the summer afternoon, the sound of boys and girls reciting books came from the main hall of Chengqian Palace.
Teenagers don't know what it means to be sad, but "Jiangchengzi Yimao's Night Dream on the [-]th Day of the First Moon" is full of emotion and tears, but the two children can't feel the emotion at all.Sitting upright with his little hands on his knees, he shook his head and recited every word in a elongated tone.
Ning Huan took a sneak peek at the dim sum and swallowed quietly.
Tong Jiashi chuckled: "Concentrate."
The little girl immediately looked away, pretending nothing happened, and continued to recite poems one by one.
Tong Jiashi was a little helpless.
She never thought that one day she would teach others to read like her husband, nor did she think that she would teach children this word.
Not suitable.
It's not right to be Mr.No matter how good her knowledge is, she is just a girl, she usually just plays with her younger brother to learn a few words, but she dare not teach poetry in a serious way, lest she will make a mistake with her limited knowledge and delay her fourth brother.It is even more wrong to teach the little elder brother and the little princess such words about life and death.
She also refused, but it was a pity that Ning Huan couldn't deal with it——
Back to half a decade ago, Ning Huan decided to work hard to impress the eighth elder brother in order to ensure the dignity of her eldest sister.
To achieve this goal, it is no longer enough to memorize a song a day like fishing for fish.
——Set a small goal first, and then talk after memorizing a hundred poems.
At this time, we have to talk about the system, which is just too demanding, and it doesn't help at all.Ning Huan mourned for a moment, and had no choice but to find a teacher on her own.
The third elder brother is useless, he doesn't have so much free time to go to school every day.Ning Huan focused on the fourth elder brother who was said to be able to compose more than 100 poems.
Si elder brother is of course very willing!
The little friend has been doing this for so long, but he has never stood up in front of Ning Huan.The opportunity was rare, and he immediately responded with an attitude of being about to bloom in his heart.Start his nonsense, misleading journey.
——For details, refer to "Two Children Talking about the Scene of "Pity Farmers"".
That's it, Tong Jiashi couldn't listen any longer, first frightened the fourth elder brother who was not good at learning, and then personally went to the battle to correct their messy understanding.
Experts know if there is one as soon as they make a move, and Ning Huan immediately abandons the fourth elder brother and turns to Tong Jia's embrace.
The fourth elder brother... After all, the fourth elder brother is a child who knows his mistakes and corrects them. After a while, he blushed and begged Tong Jiashi to teach him carefully.He only learned about it before, but in fact he didn't delve into many problems.And Ning Huan especially likes to get to the bottom of it, and after a day or two, the fourth elder brother will be paralyzed by the questions.
The two children pulled their arms and hugged their legs, shaking and shaking and grinding, until Tong Jiashi agreed.
As for why you want to learn "Jiangchengzi"?
Originally, it was just Tong Jiashi feeling for herself and singing one or two songs.Unexpectedly, Ning Huan, who happened to come over, ran into him.
The beautiful woman weeping and reciting poems, this scene is so beautiful and the emotion is so sincere, Ning·Huan was immediately moved and insisted on learning.The fourth elder brother didn't care at first, but seeing Tong Jia's unwillingness to teach, he insisted on learning from the rebellious psychology.
Tong Jiashi couldn't stand the entanglement and had to agree.
Before teaching, it was difficult in every possible way, but this poem was interpreted by two ignorant kids as a classic elementary school student reciting poems class, but she did not expect it.
How can there be any sadness now?There is no extra emotion!Only the light of knowledge shines on the earth!
Ning Huan took the lead in reciting ten poems, said hello to Tong Jiashi, and skipped to the side hall to see her little sister.
The remaining fourth elder brother couldn't sit still immediately, as if a nail had been placed under his buttocks, he wriggled around and looked out the window from time to time.
Tong Jia's willow eyebrows frowned slightly: "Yinzhen, concentrate!"
The fourth elder brother continued to recite reluctantly, but Ning Huan was not around, so he was obviously not as efficient as before.It took a while to finish memorizing.
Barely keeping calm, he put down the book and saluted before running outside.
Tong Jiashi: "...When will I be able to calm down?"
The palace maid Qiu Zi brought hot tea to moisten Tong Jia's throat, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is too demanding, and my servant looks at our Elder Brother and is doing well now. You are still young, so calm like a What's the point of studying like a primary school?"
"It's you who loves him." Tong Jiashi cast a glance at her confidant, and then sighed, "Calmness does not necessarily mean rigidity. Look at the fifth princess, she is also lively and smart, but she is more stable than Yinzhen when she does things. She is younger than Yinzhen. Yinzhen is still young!"
Qiu Zi couldn't help but see the grown-up little elder brother being compared to a little girl, even if it was her master who said this, she would have to argue: "Where is the fifth princess who is stable? She often gets into trouble."
Let’s not talk about picking foreign persimmons and being brought to the imperial court, and counting forward, she also made troubles with cats and dogs.
Brother Si hasn't gotten into any trouble, has he?
Tong Jiashi asked: "But have you ever seen the empress dowager reprimand and dissatisfaction?"
No.
Isn't that five princesses, little transparent and nobody cares?
Tong Jia shook his head. There was indeed this reason, but there were more: "There are many rules in the royal family, but they are for the purpose of restraining the subordinates. Even if the princes and grandsons occasionally violate the rules, as long as the emperor doesn't care, it doesn't matter. The important thing is—— — Xinxing.”
She said: "The fifth princess has a very good heart. She has endured so much since she was a child, but she is lively and cute. She has no resentment or dissatisfaction at all. She also knows how to study and make progress... This is the fourth elder brother. He has a bad temper. ......well!"
Outside the palace, as long as a boy has the ability, what does it matter if his personality is a little flawed?But the prince came from a noble background, and his words and deeds were magnified and stared at by others.As a father, the emperor is somewhat tolerant, but those censors can't wait to step on the flesh and blood of the emperor's relatives to become famous.
The fourth elder brother has an irritable and irritable personality, with clear love and hatred. Tong Jiashi is worried that he will become a target of public criticism. He cannot bear the pressure and his mentality breaks down.
In contrast, Ning Huan's mentality is very tolerant and peaceful.
Qiu Zi said: "The fifth princess is so big, the maidservant sees that Nanny Fu and Lu Ying didn't want her to know anything, they are just eating and playing."
Tong Jia shook her head: "Then why don't you look at the other one?" She pointed in the direction of Zhaoxiang, stretched out four slender jade fingers, and signaled to the fourth princess, "That one has suffered so much, you put two Put them together and see."
That's a big difference.
The same environment grows two kinds of people, why?
Qiu Zi is silent.
Here, the master and the servant were whispering, and in the side hall Ning Huan made faces and kissed each other, making the little princess giggle.
The little baby was lying in swaddling clothes, showing a toothless smile to Ning Huan.
"Sister likes Huanhuan", Ning Huan smiled and said to the maid serving beside her, then turned her head and kissed the little princess again, leaving love saliva on her pale face and hands.
The little princess babbled softly, clapping her hands and opening her mouth.
"My sister is like a kitten!" Ning Huan was small and had a low voice. She didn't know that it was because of the little princess's weak body, so she narrowed her eyes with a smile, and when she turned her head, she saw the fourth elder brother standing at the door. Hesitantly.
The little girl was proud: "Fourth brother, Huanhuan endorses faster than you!"
The fourth elder brother was already uncomfortable because of this matter, and it was even more embarrassing to be pointed out by Ning Huan: "You are only a little faster than me today, and I will surpass you tomorrow!"
Ning Huan pinched his waist: "Impossible!"
Huanhuan will work hard!
The fourth elder brother's face turned red, and he was about to quarrel.Ning Huan snorted softly and said, "Fourth brother, come quickly, sister is having fun!"
The little princess was still dancing around foolishly, not knowing why she was so happy.
call out--
The fourth elder brother's arrogance suddenly deflated like a needle-pricked balloon.
Ning Huan dragged him to play with the little princess for a while with a wooden face, but he couldn't help but said, "Let's go and see the persimmons."
"But Huanhuan doesn't want to go."
"Then whatever you want, I can accompany you." The fourth elder brother said immediately, obviously he didn't care what to play, as long as he could leave this room.
Ning Huan turned to look at the little princess.
The fourth elder brother twitched, and just about to apply the patch, he heard the little girl's childish voice say, "Huanhuan wants to keep a pet."
Fourth elder brother, court lady: "..." Why do you need to look after the little princess to keep pets.
The fourth elder brother did not hesitate: "There are many small animals in the cat and dog room, let's go and pick them out by ourselves."
It was very interesting to pick and listen to it in person, Ning Huan cheered up, and the two children went out holding hands.
On the way, Ning Huan asked Si elder brother what he wanted to raise.
The fourth elder brother didn't want to raise anything, but he was afraid that Ning Huan would turn around and go back to play with the little princess after saying this, so he thought about it and said, "I like dogs."
In fact, Tong Jiashi likes it. She used to raise a pure white poodle, which was also one of the four elder brothers' childhood friends, but died of illness last year.
Ning Huan raised her face and said, "Huanhuan wants a goose."
She dreamed: "Huanhuan wants to raise a beautiful goose, and ask it to paddle for Huanhuan to watch every day."
Obviously, it was inspired by the poems, and I think the scene of "white hair floating in green water, red palm touching the clear waves" is very beautiful.
The fourth elder brother hummed lightly.
The eunuch in charge of the cat and dog room received the two masters tremblingly.
There are few noble people in their place, so he took out a booklet and smiled apologetically, "It's not clean inside, master read the booklet to choose."
The fourth elder brother looked at Ning Huan.
Ning Huan nodded, and lay down on the table to watch with the fourth elder brother. She was only looking for geese, and after looking for a long time, she couldn't find any animals with long necks, but she saw dogs.
Ning Huan happily pointed to the fourth elder brother: "Fourth elder brother, look, it's a dog!"
Fourth elder brother: "...um."
The steward said tactfully: "What kind of dog does the fourth elder brother want? Our cat and dog room has all kinds of coats and colors. What do you want?"
Afraid that the fourth elder brother would not understand, he first asked the child what he cared about the most: "Do you want to be big or small."
Brother Si: ...I don't want any of them.
But considering Tong Jia's, I still want a little poodle.The fourth elder brother was making plans in his heart.
Ning Huan cupped his face: "Does Blue Boy like big dogs? Aluminum Boy likes small dogs."
Fourth elder brother: ...Hmmm!
That's right!
He said to the steward: "Ben elder brother likes big ones, the more powerful the better, and the fur color should be good-looking."
"Hey! Hey!", according to the request of the fourth elder brother, the steward flipped through the booklet to find a suitable dog to show to the two young masters, and said, "If you want to say that it is big and beautiful, there is one that fits my elder brother's requirements. It is not the same size. Small, snow-white fur, long and supple, and lively and cute, but it's a pity that he got sick."
Fourth elder brother and Ning Huan were a little disappointed. Hearing what he said so well, they planned to take it.
But it can't, even if the palace people are sick, they have to leave the nobleman's side, let alone animals.
The eunuch in charge also felt a little regretful: "It's still a fresh variety from Lao Maozi's side. This servant has never seen it before. Speaking of it, it has some connections with the two of you."
After he told the story, Ning Huan realized that there really was some fate——
When the emperor asked the eunuch Zhang Shun to deal with the tomato, didn't that person think of a genius way: give it to the dog and throw it out of the palace.
This dog is that dog.
It was not poisoned to death, and Gousheng was lucky enough to see the imperial doctor, so he was slowed down from the dying state, lingering on until now.
Stewardship is nothing more than talk.
The fourth elder brother felt a little sense of responsibility for the pet he was about to get, and asked to go in to have a look after looking at the brochure.
The steward tried to dissuade them, but they couldn't stop the two wayward brats. After all, they were told to go in.
The fourth elder brother walked along the narrow road and walked through the cages full of dogs. Seeing that this was just like that, that was almost the same, with no success, but he walked to the corner, swept the corner, and saw a big white-haired dog, Lying lazily in the cage, like a ball of snow.
Fourth elder brother and Ning Huan's eyes straightened.
In the summer afternoon, the sound of boys and girls reciting books came from the main hall of Chengqian Palace.
Teenagers don't know what it means to be sad, but "Jiangchengzi Yimao's Night Dream on the [-]th Day of the First Moon" is full of emotion and tears, but the two children can't feel the emotion at all.Sitting upright with his little hands on his knees, he shook his head and recited every word in a elongated tone.
