Kuai Chuan's face-slapping gold finger

Chapter 19

Zhuang Minjing's literary name has been gaining momentum for more than ten years, and classics have been published one after another. She has already conquered countless scholars. Although she is a woman, she has always been respected by officials. Mr. Zhuang Minjing, the Fairy of Samblum?"

"..."

Yang Zhao was silent, he could hardly bear the impact of this title, he waited for a while before saying, "Don't dare, it's my sister."

The man immediately said happily: "Fairy Hanmei has written a masterpiece, I wonder if we are lucky enough to read it?"

"Why not?" Yang Zhao naturally agreed, he pretended to be modest, walked forward slowly with a look of unrepentant hospitality, and picked up a pen and paper.

"The orchid is Yiyi, and it is fragrant. If you don't pick it and wear it, it will hurt the orchid."

On the rice paper, there are traces of thick ink falling, flowing clouds and flowing water, coming from nothing.

When the people standing beside Yang Zhao saw his handwriting, they couldn't help but praise it loudly!It is said that if the prince of Rongguo is not good at writing, he will not be good at martial arts. There are ten fights in the family, and Fairy Hanmei has ten fights alone, but now watching his calligraphy, no matter what, he can get a share of the fight with this attainment, right?

"Today's spin is what it is. I travel in all directions, day by day."

"Xueshuangmaomao, shepherd's wheat is luxuriant. If the child is not hurt, I will not."

"The luxuriance of shepherd's wheat, the existence of shepherd's wheat. The injury of a gentleman, the protection of a gentleman."

When the poem was completed, all the people around were amazed, and those who stood farther away gathered around at this time, wanting to admire Fairy Hanmei's stunning work. Seeing that everyone was very excited, the crown prince motioned Zhuang Siyuan to pass the poem to him, and read it. After that, even he was impressed by Zhuang Minjing's talent, so he read it aloud.

"The injury of a gentleman is the defense of a gentleman."

When the prince finished reading the last word, the audience was intoxicated by it, and a young Hanlin sighed: "What a gentleman's injury, a gentleman's defense, just this one sentence, this poem is famous forever!"

"As expected of the number one talented woman in the Xia Kingdom, once this poem comes out, it is enough to overwhelm the audience."

Everyone was immersed in the artistic conception of poetry, but only one person's face was ashen. Yang Zhao saw the fourth prince's hands on his knees clenched into fists, and even the veins on the back of his hands were bulging, so he couldn't help but shed a tear of sympathy for him.Just a few days ago, "Mr. Zhuang Minjing, the most talented woman in Xia Kingdom, Hanmei Fairy" specially presented this poem to Zhao Li, revealing in her words that it was because she saw Zhao Li's demeanor that she realized something in her heart and got it by chance.

When Zhao Li got this poem, he thought he had conquered Zhuang Minjing, but they had only known each other for a month, yet this poem was written a year ago, how could it be because of him?
Zhao Li felt bitter in his heart, and a turbulent wave had already been set off.

Yu Miaojun and Yang Zhao looked at each other and smiled, and the plan was agreed.

After a few days of leisure in Hufeng Garden, a few friends played piano, chess, poetry, wine, fished and hunted. On the seventh day, the noble children in the garden had almost dispersed, and the remaining few princes and more than a dozen noble families Junior, a group of people are planning to climb Hufeng Mountain, and the son of Duke Rong is naturally among them.

Yang Zhao rejected the sedan chair specially prepared for him by the crown prince, saying that he has become lighter these days, and he doesn't want to always be that misfit. This time he wants to reach the top of the mountain with his own legs.As Zhuang Siyuan's good boss and good playmate, the prince of course couldn't dismantle him, and worried that he would be too boring to be alone, so he had to accompany him to the end, and went to the top of the mountain like a turtle.

In the gazebo on the mountainside, Yang Zhao was drinking tea and eating snacks comfortably. The crown prince saw him in peace of mind and remained silent. The rest of his companions had long since disappeared. Not only was Zhuang Siyuan not in a hurry, but he was actually enjoying himself.

"Did you forget that the first place in this mountaineering competition also wins the lottery?" The prince's voice was a little low.

"Return to Your Highness, I remember." Yang Zhao took a sip of tea.

"Then why are you still here?"

"I think it's too late anyway, so why force it? It's better to enjoy the joy of climbing the mountain quietly. The scenery here is unique."

Prince: "..."

It makes sense, but Gu can't refute it.

In the white mist in the distance, four small peaks can be faintly connected. The mountain is steep and winding, with continuous ups and downs. The mountainside is four to five hundred feet high. Along the way, you can hear the singing of swallows and the singing of warblers, and the gurgling streams. The beauty of the mountains is worthy of the name of the royal garden.

Yang Zhao traveled and enjoyed all the way, and the prince walked beside him with a blank expression.

Suddenly, a sharp whistle pierced the tranquility of the green hill, and hurried footsteps came from the depths of the white mist, and the surrounding guards were on alert immediately. The prince looked serious, and he winked at the two guards, and the two rushed forward After a few breaths, they disappeared into the mountain mist. Not long after, one of the guards returned and said: "Your Highness, your Highnesses and all the adults have reached the top of the mountain. Unfortunately, the fourth prince was bitten by the green ring snake when he was fetching the divine water." , and is now in a coma."

The prince's face suddenly changed, and he said in shock: "What's going on?"

It turns out that there is a thousand-year-old pine growing on the top of Hufeng Mountain. There is a tree hole about the size of four fists in its trunk. The hole is three feet deep. Shenshui.

Whenever there are royal children who come here to compete, the first person to reach the top of the mountain can drink a sip of the magic water. Maybe it is not magical, but it is a good omen, and it has long been a royal tradition.

If Zhuang Siyuan didn't hold him back, he should be the first one to ascend this time, how could the rest of the people compete with the crown prince for such meaningless limelight?Thinking of this, the prince looked at Zhuang Siyuan more softly, pretending to be sorry and said: "It's hard for the fourth brother to prevent the disaster for Gu, hurry up and take a look with Gu, if something happens to him, Gu will not be able to explain it. "

Fortunately, the poisonousness of the green ring snake is not fatal. Even if the poisoning is serious, it only takes three to two months to recover, not to mention that the fourth prince is also accompanied by guards, so it has been dealt with immediately.

The crown prince was happy to see Zhao Li's misfortune, he was not impatient at this time, but he heard Zhuang Siyuan say: "The green ring snake always hides by day and nocturnal, and it usually inhabits near the water at the foot of the mountain, how could it appear on the top of the mountain?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, the guard said solemnly: "Your subordinates are allowed to investigate again." After saying that, he led the two subordinates to disappear again.

The prince was silent for a while, then slowly said: "Siyuan's intention... is that the green ring snake did not appear by accident, but someone designed it?" As for whom?Naturally, it was me who should have taken the lead.But why choose the Green Ring Snake?Yes!If he is poisoned and cannot move for at least a month, and the trip to Qingchuan is imminent, Father will definitely arrange for other princes to replace him.

On the surface, this trip to Qingchuan was to inquire about the relief bank, but in fact it was an excellent opportunity to contact the Liangjiang forces. The princes fought many times in private. Even though he was the prince, he had to put in a lot of effort to get his father's approval.

Thinking about it further, if the injured person was replaced by the crown prince, everyone at the scene would probably be even more panicked. If there is any thought to investigate the details, it will probably be regarded as an accident and let the people behind it get what they want.

In fact, he guessed right. It is recorded in the Jade Slip that the Seventh Prince was the mastermind of this incident, and the one who was injured should have been the Crown Prince. Afterwards, with the help of Zhuang Minjing, the Fourth Prince found out the clue, and eventually squeezed out the Seventh Prince and went south to Qingchuan. Since then, he has won over With a large number of courtiers from the two rivers, the forces in the DPRK and China are gradually able to compete with the crown prince.

As for how Zhuang Minjing, who graduated from the Chinese Department, learned about the habits of the Green Ring Snake, the slip did not go into details, so it can only be attributed to the luck of the son of defying the sky.

Yang Zhao saw that the prince's expression changed several times, guessing that he probably figured it out, so he pretended to be stupid and said: "I only thought of it after hearing Qingdai mention it, so someone wants to harm His Highness?"

Prince: "..."

"Anyway, I owe you one more time, thank you." The prince thought to himself that Zhuang Siyuan was indeed his lucky star, he had saved him from disaster when he was young, and this time was the second time.

However, seeing Duke Rong's hesitant expression, he tentatively said in a low voice: "Since His Royal Highness insists on thanking the minister, I will not refuse. I wonder if His Royal Highness can give the minister two useful bodyguards? I just saw that they are well-trained. It’s full of prestige, and I’m really envious.”

The prince looked at Zhuang Siyuan thoughtfully, his bodyguards were naturally loyal to him, even if they were given to Zhuang Siyuan, what was the difference from eyeliner?Although he didn't have such thoughts for the time being, he sighed at Zhuang Siyuan's hard work. No matter how innocent his heart was, he finally learned a little bit about the instinctive pursuit of advantages and avoiding disadvantages of the children of aristocratic families. He took the initiative to offer his weakness to prove his loyalty to him, and he was also willing to return him a match between a monarch and his subjects.

The prince pretended to be serious: "It's okay to give you two guards, but you must listen to the truth."

Yang Zhao cooperatively revealed the embarrassment of being exposed, and said embarrassingly: "Your Highness still can't hide it." Then he told the things that happened in the Duke's Mansion one by one, and briefly mentioned his future plans: "I also want to protect myself. To accomplish this, there must be a credible person, but I was too confused before, and I didn’t know that most of the servants around me have already betrayed the master... Please His Highness the Crown Prince to complete it."

After thinking about it, he revealed the matter between Zhuang Minjing and the fourth prince earlier, and the prince finally understood why Zhuang Siyuan wanted to publicize Zhuang Minjing's boudoir works at the literary conference. People who don't know how to measure.

Thinking of Zhao Li's mental journey when he learned the truth, the prince was in a good mood. It was a pity why he didn't pay attention to it. Yang Zhao couldn't guess what he was thinking. I can't bear it."

As soon as the words came out, the prince laughed out loud, and after he calmed down, he patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, you've gotten the hang of it." He had been worried that Zhuang Siyuan was too innocent, and today he felt relieved: "Zhao Qi Zhao Jiu , you will follow Rong Guogong's son in the future, remember, you must treat your son as if you are an orphan, if you have the intention of obedient to the yin, the orphan will not be lightly forgiven!"

"Promise!" The two guards came out from the dark, took orders one after another, and knelt down on one knee to salute Zhuang Siyuan. From now on, the son of Duke Rong will be their other master.
