When Princess Hua Ning saw this, she couldn't help but smile.
The emperor's younger brother has always been strict and unsmiling, but he was unable to do anything in front of Sister Fuya.
Xuanyuan Jin turned his head and closed his eyes, looking at the chubby hand on his shoulder, slowly reaching out, grabbing it, moving it away, and pinched...
"It's just grandstanding." Xuanyuan Jin said with a hint of disdain in his tone.
In his opinion, this kind of behavior of reciting poems and writing poems in public is purely to attract people's attention and has no practicality.
Tangbao pulled back his hand, smiled and said, "Brother, I'm afraid you don't have confidence, so that's why you say this."
She had heard Master Fox say that her little brother's poems were pretty good, but there was always an air of arrogance between the lines.
Naturally, what Master Fox taught my little brother was different from what he taught others.
He does not pay attention to the sophistication of poetry, but prefers the way of governing the country.
Xuanyuan Jin listened to Tangbao's joke, glanced sideways at Tangbao, and said proudly: "Since you want me to join, I will join. There is no need to use provocation."
"Okay, let's go, let's go over there and get a seat!"
After Tangbao finished speaking, he dragged Xuanyuan Jin with one hand and Princess Hua Ning with the other, and ran towards a pavilion.
This time the Deer Ming Banquet was held in Liufengpo outside the city.
As the name suggests, there are many maple trees planted here.
Every time in late autumn, the maple leaves are in flames, which is really beautiful.
Therefore, it attracts many men and women to come and play.
However, Magistrate Xia has already been thinking about it and will have some osmanthus trees transplanted over later...
Fortunately, it is not far from Tianyin Temple.
Standing on the pavilion, you can even see the osmanthus trees dozens of meters high on the mountain behind Tianyin Temple.
There is still a faint scent of osmanthus in the wind.
There were already several scholars in the pavilion where Tangbao ran to with Xuanyuan Jin and Princess Hua Ning.
On the stone table of the pavilion, someone has already laid out pens, inks, paper and inkstones, ready to show off their skills.
Tangbao quickly asked Pomegranate to take out the pen and paper and occupy a small area.
"Brother, I will grind ink for you later." Tangbao smiled like a little fox.
There were two more girls in the pavilion, and several scholars couldn't help but look over.
Although one is still young, the other is wearing a hijab.
But she is young, pretty, wearing a hijab, and has a pair of extremely beautiful eyes.
Xuanyuan Jin frowned slightly and glanced at the scholars coldly.
Then, he said to the sugar baby: "You and the eldest sister will go to your godmother first. Later, I will write a poem and have it delivered to you."
As the prefect's wife, Mrs. Xia naturally came as well.
At this time, he was sitting not far away, chatting with several ladies.
Among them, the words spoken by Madam He and the Zhang family were the most speculative.
Zhang Zhilan, the eldest daughter of the Zhang family, serves beside her mother and future mother-in-law, dignified and elegant, and moves and retreats appropriately.
The more Mrs. Xia looked at it, the more satisfied she became.
Now that my son has passed the imperial examination, it's time to find a day to go to the Zhang family to formally apply for employment.
Mrs. Zhang's wife was naturally very happy that her future son-in-law had won the election at such a young age.
As a result, the two in-laws became more and more enthusiastic as they talked.
When Tangbao and Princess Hua Ning came over, Magistrate Xia and Mrs. Zhang's family held hands and both wanted to become sisters.
"I've met my godmother, Aunt Zhang." Tangbao smiled and saluted the two of them.
Mrs. Xia tied up the sugar baby's hair with a loving look on her face, and then bowed slightly to Princess Hua Ning.
Although Princess Hua Ning conceals her identity, Mrs. Xia knows that she is a royal princess, so she can't really treat her like a junior, right?
The eldest lady of the Zhang family couldn't help but be surprised when she saw him.
Then, with a thought in his mind, he roughly guessed the identity of Princess Hua Ning.
So, he quickly bowed slightly to Princess Hua Ning.
Princess Hua Ning said in a gentle tone: "You two ladies, there is no need to be polite, please do not disturb the mood because of Hua Ning."
Upon hearing this, the eldest lady of the Zhang family no longer had any doubts in her heart.
Tangbao looked at Mrs. Xia and said with a smile: "Godmother, Sister Ning and I went to go and play with Sister Siya."
Tangbao said, pointing to the maple forest not far away.
In the maple forest, Xia Siya and several little girls were playing on the swings.
"Go." Mrs. Xia nodded, then looked back at Zhang Zhilan, and said: "You don't have to keep an eye on us two old ones. Let's go play with your sister Su and the others."
Zhang Zhilan looked at Mrs. Zhang's family.
Seeing this, Mrs. Xia nodded secretly.
As expected, he is a well-educated person who understands etiquette.
However, he said with a smile: "You don't have to look at your mother, I have the final say today."
When Mrs. Xia said this, Mrs. Zhang's wife also laughed.
She is naturally happy that her daughter can be protected by her future mother-in-law.
"Since your Aunt Xia has said so, you can go ahead." Mrs. Zhang's wife said with a smile: "Don't worry about your own playfulness. Your sister Su is young, so you have to take good care of her."
Mrs. Zhang's wife naturally knew the importance of Sugar Baby in Mrs. Xia's heart, so she specially mentioned her daughter.
Zhang Zhilan responded naturally.
So Tangbao took Princess Hua Ning and Zhang Zhilan to find Xia Siya.
Xia Siya thought for a moment, took Zhang Zhilan, and ran to meet Brother Xia by chance...
In the crisp autumn season, the air is pleasant and laughter is flowing everywhere, making people feel happy in spite of themselves.
The sugar baby was as happy as a little bird, until——
"Miss, this is a poem written by Master Yang." Shiliu held the poem written by Xuanyuan Jin in her hand and ran over excitedly, saying: "Master Yang said, after you read it, take it to the critics.
Sentence."
Upon hearing this, Tangbao quickly took it and looked at it.
Because it is the Deer Ming Banquet, it naturally cannot escape the implication of the Toad Palace winning the laurels, or the words and phrases related to the osmanthus.
Xuanyuan Jin wrote a seven-character quatrain.
The first part is fine, but the last sentence——
When he reaches the top of the list one day, everyone in the world will laugh at how busy he is.
Sugar baby has black lines all over his head.
The little brother is indeed a little brother, and he has the air of being beaten.
Although students mostly refer to scholars, Tangbao feels that what Xuanyuan Jin means here is the scholars who failed the exam.
Alas! I wonder if there are any failed scholars among those scholars just now?
If so, have you seen the poem written by my little brother?
If you see it...
A hint of sympathy arose in Tangbao's heart.
Isn't this a knife inserted into someone's heart?
"Third brother has changed a lot compared to when he was a child." Princess Hua Ning stood next to Tangbao, looking sideways at the poem written by Xuanyuan Jin, and said with a smile: "I was such a serious and serious person when I was a child, but now I have become
Such..."
When Princess Hua Ning said this, she paused, as if she didn't know how to describe it.
"You have a poisonous mouth and a stinky fart." Tangbao said it on Princess Hua Ning's behalf.
Princess Hua Ning burst out laughing.
"That's true, but..."
Princess Hua Ning changed her tone, and a flash of distress flashed in her eyes.
He added: "Having experienced that kind of change at such a young age, it's no wonder that your temperament has changed."
Tangbao asked curiously: "Sister Ning, what happened back then?"
