New Return of the Pearl: The Group's Pet Swallow Flies
Chapter 20 Mingqi is scolded
As soon as Hongzhan finished speaking, the Qianqing Palace suddenly fell silent.
After a long while, Hongli asked in disbelief, "Hongzhan, if I remember correctly, Qing'er is only four and a half years old this year. Are you in a hurry to find a husband for her? I'm afraid this is not a good idea, right?"
Seeing his brother's reaction, Hongzhan was stunned for a moment, then explained with a smile, "Brother, this is what Qingwan meant. She thinks Xiao Feng from Xiao Zhihang's family has a good personality. If the two children are destined to be together, it is not impossible for them to get married in the future.
Of course, we also know that the children are still young, so we have recognized Xiao Zhihang and his wife as relatives. If the children grow up and love each other, they will become husband and wife. If the children grow up and have no feelings for each other, they will become siblings. "
Hongli felt that Hongzhan and the others had made such a casual decision. "You are the children of the royal family, and Qing'er is a noble princess. How do you know that Xiao Zhihang is not a greedy and power-hungry person?"
Hearing that his brother misunderstood Xiao Zhihang and the others, Hongzhan frowned, but he was not angry. He knew that his brother was worried that he was deceived, so he smiled and explained, "Don't worry, brother. I think I am quite good at judging people. After Qingwan and I have been with Xiao Zhihang's family for half a month, we all think that they are not hypocritical people.
Of course, it is undeniable that some people will pretend, but our relationship will be determined in the future. If we find that Xiao Zhihang is not what he seems, I will not let him go, and the recognition of kinship will not count. "
After hearing this, Hongli nodded with relief. He had watched his younger brother Hongzhan grow up almost all his life. Now that the child had grown up and had his own ideas, he did not want to interfere too much and so he did not say much. He just listened to what he said about what happened in the Xiao Mansion.
When he mentioned that he would go back in a few months to attend the one-year-old celebration of Xiao family's youngest daughter, Xiaoyanzi, Hongli was still a little dazed. Xiaoyanzi, why did this name always sound familiar to him?
Recently he has been having dreams in which there are two girls, about seventeen or eighteen years old. His appearance cannot be seen clearly, but they hold his hands intimately and call him "Emperor Father".
However, in the palace today, the oldest princess is only eight or nine years old, and the appearance of the princesses who are eighteen or nineteen years old is still unclear. He really feels puzzled.
Moreover, he seemed to have heard them calling each other by name, Xiaoyanzi, Ziwei?
"Brother, what are you thinking about?"
Hongzhan talked for a long time but saw that his brother did not respond, so he couldn't help but feel curious.
Hongli, whose thoughts were interrupted, didn't think much about it. After talking to him for a few words, he let him leave.
Hongli was thinking about that little swallow. Was there any connection between her and the little swallow in his dream?
----
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Fifth Prince and Master Ban request an audience."
Xiao Luzi listened to the Fifth Prince's repeated knocks on the door, and looked at the emperor who was lost in thought. He tried to hold back, but couldn't help but interrupt the emperor's thoughts.
Hongli came back to his senses from his memories, and when he heard Yongqi coming, he rubbed his brows and let him in.
Xiao Luzi responded and went to open the door. He saw a six-year-old boy in a blue and yellow robe standing at the door. He had a pair of big eyes on his chubby face. When he saw the door open, his eyes lit up instantly. He turned around and glanced at the boy behind him encouragingly, then strode into the house.
The seven-year-old boy standing behind him was wearing a vest and robe. He had golden curly hair and a thin face. His amazing emerald green eyes flashed with a hint of confusion. Under his high nose bridge were small red lips, which were tightly pursed at this moment, as if he was a little nervous.
Seeing the Fifth Prince enter the room, he hesitated for a moment and then followed him in.
"Yongqi, Benjamin, why don't you go to study and come to see me?"
His thoughts were interrupted and Hongli felt inexplicably irritated. Seeing the two little guys who were supposed to be studying instead of studying came to him, his face looked a little unhappy and his tone was a little stiff.
Little Yongqi didn't expect that the emperor was in a bad mood today. He shrank back in fear, and after a struggle in his heart, he closed his eyes and stiffened his neck and spoke tremblingly, "Reply, reply to the emperor, I saw that Erkang Ertai went out to play with Uncle Wang, so Benjamin and I also want to go."
After he finished speaking, there was no sound in the room for a long time. Yongqi only felt his heart beating faster and he was very scared.
He didn't dare open his eyes. Benjamin beside him clearly saw how ugly the emperor's face became after hearing Yongqi's words.
Benjamin exhaled lightly with some fear. Huh, it was so scary. He was from Great Britain and had just come to the Qing Dynasty for half a year with his master. He was not used to seeing the emperor yet. The emperor was so fierce. He was so scared when he looked at him.
"Erkang and Ertai went out to play? Your uncle Wang took them out to attend the one-year-old celebration of his friend's child. You don't want to think well, you just want to go out and play, right? Can you recite "The Ballad of Mulan"? Can you recite all Tang poems? Do you know who Du Fu and Li Bai are?"
Hongli was looking at the two little guys below and was almost laughing because of them. He was even more furious when he thought that Hongzhan not only ran away with his wife and children, but also abducted his minister Fulun and his children's study partner.
Now these two kids also want to go out and play?
Hearing the angry scolding from the Emperor above, little Yongqi and little Benjamin shrank back in fear. They were extremely scared and secretly cursed Erkang Ertai in their hearts for being too much for not treating them as friends and not taking them with him when he went out to play.
The two of them secretly looked at each other from below, with a hint of regret in their eyes. If they had known earlier, they would have secretly run away with them.
"What are you looking at? I'm asking you, do you know everything? And you, Benjamin, your master brought you to the Qing Dynasty to make you study hard, but you don't study and just follow Yongqi around, right?"
Hongli looked at the two children looking at each other in bewilderment, and felt inexplicably unhappy, so he grabbed them and gave them a scolding.
Xiao Yongqi and Benjamin wanted to say that they knew all those things, but they were afraid of talking back and making the emperor even angrier, so they shook their heads and pretended not to know. Then, after being scolded, they left in disgrace.
Xiao Luzi stood aside and didn't dare to breathe. He just felt that the current emperor was still very angry. It was likely that any dog passing by would be scolded.
Before he could breathe a sigh of relief after seeing his elder brother and Master Ban leave, he heard the emperor speak.
"Xiao Luzi, what's so good about Xiao Zhihang? Hongzhan didn't even accompany me, his brother, and kidnapped my ministers just to attend the full moon banquet for Xiao Zhihang's child?"
Xiao Luzi's body stiffened. Oh, the emperor was starting to find fault with him. If he didn't say it well, then he was done for. But if he listened carefully, he felt that there was something sour in the emperor's words, as if he was complaining that the prince didn't spend much time with the emperor after returning?
Seeing that the emperor was waiting for an answer, Xiao Luzi began to brainstorm. He thought for a long time and prepared many arguments, but before he could say anything, he heard the emperor waving his hand impatiently and said, "Forget it, forget it. Go down. Make me a pot of tea."
Xiao Luzi escaped the disaster and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He hurried out of the house to make tea.
When I walked outside, I saw two boys whispering in the corner.
"Benjamin, tell me, if we sneak out of the capital, how long will it take for us to be caught?"
