Hongde Longqiu was paying attention to the game in Meng Xinzhu's hand, but saw that she suddenly stopped. From the look in her eyes, she must be missing something. Is it homesick? Missing the feeling of leaving the palace? Or missing someone? He
Reach out and hold her hand.
Meng Xinzhu was shocked and came to her senses. She shrugged with a smile and continued to play the game with her head down.
Hongde Longqiu didn't ask her anything. In fact, nothing mattered. What mattered was that she was by his side. As long as she was by his side, he would have the chance to win her heart and possess her.
Uncle Nine Emperors and Aunt Huang rushed over in a hurry. Meng Xinzhu introduced the game to them in detail, and also told a little story about catching and releasing Cao Cao.
The Nine Emperors Uncle looked at the wooden box in his hand, and then at Meng Xinzhu, "Princess Princess, what is in your little head, how could you think of such interesting things? Your Emperor's godfather has traveled all over the world,
I’ve never encountered anything so fun!”
Aunt Jiuhuang looked at the drawings and said, "I never thought that a small box of wooden blocks could produce so many tricks."
Hongde Longqiu looked at the three people in the heated discussion and shook his head helplessly. There was no room for him to intervene here. Since when had he become superfluous?
"Well, Concubine Zhu,..."
"Your Majesty, are you going back to Yue Kun Palace?" Meng Xinzhu didn't wait for his answer, "Then go quickly. In this case, I will send you off not far away."
"Emperor's nephew, are you leaving? Okay, walk slowly, uncle, we still want to play with the princess and her daughter for a while."
Hongde Longqiu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but glare at Meng Xinzhu. Do you really want him to leave? Last night, he had already felt very uncomfortable. Thinking that there are still three months left, how can he bear it?
In the study room of Prince Jing's Mansion, Hongde Longrun looked at his tenth brother, "Old Ten, you should know that Concubine Zhu's identity is unknown, why do you still propose that she worship Uncle Nine Emperors as her godfather?"
Hongde Longhao picked up the tea cup with a smile, "Sixth brother, do you know when is the time when a person's will is the most relaxed?" Hongde Longrun looked at him, "It's when he thinks he is hidden and safe.
.Although I don’t quite agree with your views on the emperor’s wife, I have to be careful when it comes to the safety of the emperor’s brother and the fate of the country.”
"It turns out that you have other intentions."
"That's right! If the emperor's sister-in-law wants to do harm to Yue Kingdom, I propose to appoint the emperor's uncle as her godfather. We all know the emperor's aloof status in the palace. This can make her feel one step closer to her goal and relax her vigilance.
Now everyone can see that the emperor's brother dotes on the emperor's sister-in-law, and we also respect and love her. In addition, she has recognized the emperor's uncle as her godfather, and her protective circle should be strong enough. If she really has evil intentions
, now is the time to start taking action. The more relaxed she is, the easier it will be for us to show off her skills, and it will be easier for us to catch her tail."
"Hahaha! You still have a deep plan, but don't be soft when the time comes."
Hongde Longhao stood up, "If she really does something wrong with Yue Kingdom, I will never let her go. But if she has no ill intentions, I will never let others frame her."
"You feel so good about her, I just gave you a song."
"I just felt the sincerity in her eyes and my intuition. But I think you don't need to worry about me. Instead, you should worry about Brother Huang. Don't let him sink too deep. He will be soft-hearted when the time comes."
"Probably not. I heard that the emperor lit the lanterns in Yuekun Palace last night."
"Really?" Hongde Longhao frowned, "Where is the emperor's uncle?"
"I don't know, I just know that he and the Emperor's Aunt entered the palace early in the morning. I heard that Concubine Zhu made something new."
"Come here, please bring the princess over."
Yu'er returned to the study and met with Sixth Brother. "Yu'er, let's go to the palace to meet the emperor's sister-in-law today. I heard that she made interesting things for the emperor's uncle, so let's go and have a look."
Looking at the noisy couple playing Huarong Road in the pavilion, Meng Xinzhu couldn't help shaking her head and laughing. The two couples together are more than a hundred years old, but they are still like children. When one person is playing, the other person is
One of them was gesticulating at the side, and even snatched it away when he said he was in a hurry. Alas, they say that the older people get, the more they look like children, old and young!
Meng Xinzhu called Eunuch Chen and asked him to go to the carpentry factory to ask the master to make another set. They couldn't let the two of them fight over a toy.
"Royal sister-in-law!"
"Yu'er! Why do you have time to come here?"
"I heard that you made some good things for Uncle Nine Emperors. We came to see what's new!"
Uncle Nine Emperors was playing so enthusiastically that he refused to stop and let everyone take a look. Meng Xinzhu could only shake his head and asked everyone to wait for the new pair to be delivered.
Yu'er took out an amber from her sleeve, "Sister-in-law, look." Meng Xinzhu took the butterfly amber in her hand, "Look how beautiful the butterfly pattern is. Long Haohua bought it with a lot of money.
Two coins, Yu'er kept one and gave this one to my sister-in-law."
Meng Xinzhu smiled and said, "Thank you."
Hongde Longhao noticed something strange in her eyes, "Sister-in-law, don't you like this amber?"
"No, of course I like my sister's idea."
"But why do you think the emperor's sister-in-law seems to be hiding something? If the emperor's sister-in-law has anything to say, you might as well say it directly!"
Meng Xinzhu smiled again, "Since the Tenth Prince said so, I will no longer hide it. This amber is fake."
"Fake?"
"It should be said that this is man-made and not naturally formed."
"Man-made? Forged again?" Yu'er said in surprise. "How can you tell?"
"These are the open wings of this butterfly. If you observe carefully, when the butterfly is staying, its wings are folded and together. The one with open wings must be a moth. If it is dripping with rosin during its flight, the wings will also be
It cannot be so neat, there must be wrinkles. The wings of this butterfly in amber are complete and smooth, which does not conform to the laws of nature at all. It is obviously an artificial behavior."
"Really?" Hongde Longhao picked up the amber and looked at it carefully, "Oh, then I've wasted my money again."
"That's not necessarily true. Although it is man-made, it is well made and the butterfly is also very beautiful. In my opinion, it is valuable because it is full of human wisdom. Although natural amber is rare, it is only natural.
Although it is man-made, it is the crystallization of wisdom due to the addition of human imagination and labor, and has a higher production value than those formed naturally. Therefore, spending money to buy it cannot be regarded as a waste of money."
"Alas, the emperor's sister-in-law is right, there is no businessman in the world without a traitor."
"In fact, it is not necessarily the fault of the merchants. It is mainly people's greed. Because rich people like you have the desire to collect such things, which aggravates the merchants' desire to collect gold and silver. But it is also these desires that make people continue to
We have to use our brains to think of ways to transform everything. Desire leads to greed, evil, and destruction, but it also promotes progress."
