60. The inescapable copy of poetry

The third princess was wearing a green skirt with long hair on her head. Even though she sat, she still looked slim. She was talking to the queen mother, and found that Chen Lang came in with the box in her arms, and the third princess smiled even more deliberately.

"Put things aside." The Queen Mother said slowly.

Looking in the sound, she saw a graceful and luxurious old woman raising her eyebrows. She was about seventy years old, with thick powder on her face, slightly sunken eyes, a high bridge of her nose, and two lips were painted red.

With just one glance, Chen Lang was sure that Empress Dowager Xu had never met her, because of this look and demeanor, she would definitely remember her when she saw her.

"Xiao Wang pays me a blessing to the Queen Mother and wishes the Queen Mother a good life and prosperity." Chen Lang bowed politely and then walked towards the Third Princess.

The Empress Dowager asked Chen Lang to put the things on the side, but did not specify which side it was. The third princess happened to be sitting on the side, so Chen Lang of course chose the side where the third princess was.

"Why are you here?" the third princess asked pretending to be surprised.

"I sent a message to the Queen Mother several days in advance." Chen Lang lowered his voice, "What a coincidence, you are here too."

"Hmph! Isn't it normal for granddaughter to talk to grandma?" the third princess said with black eyes.

Chen Lang put down the box and teased in a very low voice: "Maybe someone knows I'm coming in advance..."

"Tsk~" The third princess shook her hand and showed a contemptuous expression on her face, but the expression was obviously not natural enough.

The empress dowager took a sip of tea and pointed to the chair opposite the third princess: "Please ask the Prince of Liang to sit down. Speaking of which, you went to Xu State to end the protracted war, which is also considered to be a benefit to the people."

"Shame." Chen Lang sat down on the chair with a respectful look.

"Are you used to it in Xu Country these days?" the empress dowager asked while wiping the corners of her eyes.

She seems to be very sad...

Perhaps because I saw Chen Lang, I remembered the exchange with Chen Lang and pledged Prince Xu of Liang. After all, the Mid-Autumn Festival will soon come soon, and such a festival is very easy to be sad.

Chen Lang speculated about the Queen Mother's thoughts, and then answered sincerely: "The customs of Xu and Liang countries are similar, and their diet is similar. If you say you are not used to it, it is just the first period. There will be no problem when it is over."

This sentence refers to both Chen Lang herself and the Crown Prince Xu. When Chen Lang's tone was relaxed, the empress dowager breathed a sigh of relief. The Changsun she was thinking about should be as good as Chen Lang in Liangdu Luokang.

"Brother Aili usually likes to read books, and Liang Guo must have many books, so there are no need to worry about him." The third princess blinked and comforted the queen mother.

"Oh, I hope that's the case." The Queen Mother nodded.

In fact, what Chen Lang thought was completely different from them. When the two carriages met at the scene where the prince exchanged, Chen Lang had a conversation with Aili. After just a few words and one meeting, Chen Lang realized that Aili was very weak in character, and it would be difficult for him to overcome the hurdle in his heart after reaching Luo Kang.

Chen Lang can clearly distinguish this point, but as an elder, the Empress Dowager selectively forgets the defects of Aili. It is probably human nature.

Seeing that the Empress Dowager was still feeling a little melancholy, the third princess continued to comfort her: "Grandma the emperor said just now that going to a neighboring country to end the war is also considered to be a benefit to the people of the world. Therefore, Brother Aili..."

Before he finished speaking, the empress dowager interrupted with her eyes squinted: "If you could marry into Liang State, there would be no messy things later."

Haha ~

This statement makes sense! Chen Lang sneered and looked at the third princess. The third princess' cheeks turned red and her lips trembled a few times before saying, "The father disagrees with that matter, and I also disagrees with it!"

"Okay, okay." The Empress Dowager picked up the teacup and took a sip. It seemed that she was just talking casually.

Indeed, if the marriage can be negotiated, there will be no exchange of princes in the future. In that way, Chen Lang would not be confusedly packaged as Prince Liang and then pledged Xu Du Huaining. Maybe he wandered on a certain street and had found a way to return to the modern world.

Humph ~

However, when Chen Lang thought of the marriage agreement, the third prince married the true prince of Liang Guo. Although the true prince looked 90% similar to Chen Lang himself, Chen Lang believed from the bottom of his heart that the true prince must be a bad boy and arrogant, and he might not have a good end in the future.

After pausing for a few seconds, Chen Lang asked softly in a routine manner: "Is the Queen Mother in good health?"

"Okay, I have a tough body, eat well and sleep well." The Queen Mother also answered casually like a routine. I guess there were many visitors asking her this way.

"Your old man is in good health, so it is the admiration of Emperor Xu and other juniors." Chen Lang nodded.

"Hey!" The Empress Dowager shook her head sadly, "Now, I just hope that the world will be peaceful and that people will enjoy happiness in the future. It's just that when it's approaching Mid-Autumn Festival, Aili cannot reunite with us."

this……

As the saying goes, being a stranger in a foreign land, I miss my relatives more during the holidays. Even the empress dowager in Huaining is like this, Aili, who pledged Luo Kang, must be crying.

Chen Lang pursed his lips, and suddenly a light flashed in his mind and took the opportunity to advise the Empress Dowager: "How Liang Guo treats Aili depends to a large extent on how Xu Guo treats Xiao Wang. Since Xiao Wang feels very good, I guess Aili will not be bad either."

"Um."

The Empress Dowager nodded thoughtfully, "What you said just now makes sense. The Ai family has never set foot in Liang State, nor has they seen Emperor Liang or all the ministers in the court. But the Ai family believes that people's hearts are full of flesh. Tell the Ai family honestly, who bullies you in Huaining City?"

"No." Chen Lang replied firmly. Not to mention that no one is bullying Chen Lang now, even if there is, Chen Lang would not say that he would be with the Queen Mother. After all, there is no need to move out until the critical moment.

"Xu Guo is a famous country of etiquette. You can also attend this year's Mid-Autumn Festival dinner." The Empress Dowager sent an invitation to Chen Lang.

Chen Lang didn't expect that what he said just now actually made the empress dowager want to invite him to the dinner. Originally, there was no problem with the dinner, but Xu Huang and others would definitely be at the dinner at that time. If there were any traps to test Chen Lang, it would be impossible to guard against.

However, how could the Queen Mother refuse the invitation? Chen Lang quickly replied: "Okay."

Seeing Chen Lang agreeing, the empress dowager stood up to move her muscles and bones. She had to move after sitting for a long time at this age, otherwise she would feel very uncomfortable if her back hurts.

Chen Lang ended the visit tactfully. However, before going out, he whispered to the third princess: "Does there any special etiquette or customs in the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala in Xuguo in previous years?"

The third princess thought for a while: "It's nothing special. Maybe writing poetry to make fun of is a tradition."

...

When he went back, Chen Lang racked his brains all the way.

I once heard that many time travelers traveled to ancient times and could gain fame by relying on the skill of copying poems alone, and even invincible to see gods, kill gods, see Buddhas, and kill Buddhas.

However, Chen Lang couldn't do it. Because he had not completed nine years of compulsory education, and he had almost no interest in poetry, ancient Chinese and other things, even if he learned it in class, he had forgotten everything.

Da da da da da ~

The carriage was shaking, and Chen Lang held his forehead with one hand and thought hard.

Maybe he is nervous, maybe he has too many things recently, so Chen Lang can't even remember any ancient poems.

"Bang!"

Chen Lang slapped his forehead, trying to take a picture of his memory.

After a long time, the horse slowed down and stopped at the prince's mansion. Chen Lang rushed off the carriage as fast as possible, and shouted to the yard: "Get me a pen!"

Just three seconds ago, Chen Lang suddenly remembered an ancient poem that has been passed down through the ages and is well-known. He wanted to write down this ancient poem as a good start. Maybe Chen Lang can also rely on this kind of crazy skills to increase his bargaining chips for his counterattack.

He ran into the room, laying the rice paper, Chen Lang picked up his pen, and wrote a line of big words seriously: goose, goose, geese, songs towards the sky with a bent neck.
