Chapter 859 Xiao Yining: o (╥﹏╥) o, the pledge is invalid (1) + (2)
Although Xiao Shunzi vaguely knew what his young master was thinking, he had no time to care.
Before he left the palace, he received an urgent message from his godfather Pei Dafu, ordering him to inform Princess Le'an that the gambling game in Yuelai Teahouse was set up by Wanda Bank, and if Lin Yuzan did not make it into the top three, the bet would be invalid.
The master and servant each had their own thoughts and walked into the Lin family one after another.
Who would have thought that before he even got around the screen wall, he would run into Xiao Yining who was running towards him excitedly.
Seeing the little kid rushing out to greet him, the naughty kid nodded in satisfaction. He put his hands behind his back, raised his head, and pretended to be a grown-up. Just as he was about to speak, the little kid opposite him said, "Uncle, I want to go to the palace to see my uncle."
Sheng Hongtong: (* ̄m ̄), I finally got out of the palace!
The naughty kid immediately exploded, crossed his arms, and said unhappily, "My father is very angry right now, he doesn't want to see you!"
The little girl was stunned when she heard this, but then she smiled brightly and emphasized again: "Then Sister Qing will go to the palace to please Grandpa Uncle!"
Xiao Yining: (?▽?), today's timing is perfect! Bring the hero's secret to show off to old Baby, he'll definitely be doubly happy!
The little girl's thoughts had already drifted to the fantasy of selecting treasures in the private vault. But the next moment, Xiao Shunzi's words broke her defenses.
A hint of helplessness flashed across Xiao Shunzi's eyes. He bent down and said to her, "Princess Le'an, His Majesty has been busy these past few days, so please don't come to the palace for now."
In fact, his godfather had actually said to him, "Don't let the Crown Prince bring Princess Le'an into the palace. If His Majesty sees Princess Le'an these days, he'll probably feel unwell."
Xiao Yining: ⊙_⊙
Xiao Yining: ﹌○﹌
Xiao Yining: (?_?), the old baby must have another little baby!
Xiao Shunzi spoke in a subtle way, but the little boy's expression changed drastically. He became heartbroken and tears burst out instantly.
"Uncle doesn't like Sister Qing anymore!"
Xiao Shunzi: (???;), I didn’t say it clearly either!
Seeing this, Zhao Ya, who followed, hurriedly coaxed the young master in a soft voice.
Sheng Hongtong glared at Xiao Shunzi and said comfortingly, "Qing Jie'er, why are you crying? My father doesn't like women, so isn't it normal for him to dislike you?"
Little Yining burped loudly and responded, "As long as Uncle Grandpa likes Sister Qing, Sister Qing can be a boy!"
Sheng Hongtong: ...Oh my god, is this even possible?
The naughty kid was completely confused and didn't know how to respond.
Fortunately, the kid's words led to other confusion.
Wang Gungun's voice reached her, but no one showed up yet: "Sister Qing, I knew you were going to use my name to cheat people again. Ouch, little aunt, you hit me again."
Wan Niang finally arrived, holding the little boy's hand. If they had not met on the way just now, she would have arrived at the screen wall long ago.
She heard the conversation clearly and quickly knelt down to wipe her daughter's tears. She soothed her softly, "Qingjie, don't cry. It's almost the end of the year, and your uncle is busy with affairs. He can only have a good rest during the New Year. Then I'll summon you to the palace to accompany him. Mother will take you to pick up Dad later, okay?"
"Sister Qing has something important to tell her uncle!" Little Yining said aggrievedly.
Wan Niang laughed and shook her head. "Your father knows when Uncle Grandpa is free. It's the same if you tell your father to tell Uncle Grandpa. Uncle Grandpa will definitely remember Qing Jie'er's kindness at all times!"
The little kid's crying stopped abruptly, and he suddenly realized that the hero's secret could also help the old man achieve great success.
Another day of letting the scumbag dad reap the benefits!
Xiao Yining: (┯_┯), her private library is gone!
The little kid was finally coaxed into submission, his head drooping listlessly.
Unexpectedly, a voice of annoyance rang out beside her: "The Emperor must be always thinking of Sister Qing. He wants to break the imperial brush in his hand when he sees her."
Xiao Yining: (▼へ▼メ)
The two children were about to quarrel with each other again when Wan Niang's warning was heard in their ears: "Qing Jie'er, get out of here! Why don't you bow to the Crown Prince? Don't break the rules."
The two little ones immediately became alarmed, held each other's hands, and gave Wan Niang a hypocritical and obedient smile.
"No need to bow, cousin."
Sheng Hongtong waved her hand generously and changed the subject, "Cousin, since you're taking Qingjie'er to pick up your brother-in-law, I'll go with you. I'll also ask him if he can get into the top three so I can report to Father."
Then he pointed to his super luxurious carriage and said proudly: "My carriage is big, take mine."
However, it is impossible for the host to leave as soon as the guests enter the door.
So Wan Niang took the naughty child to admire the golden bed he had been longing for.
After a cup of tea, she took the three little ones to the Imperial Examination Hall.
In the Imperial Examination Hall, under the watchful eyes of countless people, the two old men packed their bags and took out the answer sheets they had written long ago from the protective bags carefully sewn by Wan Niang, waiting for a moment before the You hour to hand them in.
Ai Lang upstairs in Mingyuan Building was also waiting for them to hand in their papers. The two of them behaved very strangely, and their actions at night were very similar to the first game.
They only picked up their pens to write their essays during the day when he was not there, and only when other candidates were cooking. The rest of the time they sat in their quilts like wooden sculptures, motionless.
And it seems that they had written the answers last night, but have been enduring the cold and not handing them in.
Ai Lang picked up the hot tea, took a sip, glanced sideways at the guards given to him by the emperor, and suddenly a strange thought emerged in his mind.
At this moment, two voices were heard from below.
"Number 20 (21) in row one, hand in your paper."
He lowered his eyes and looked down, and saw the two "persons of special attention" carrying large bags and leaving in a leisurely manner.
Ai Lang asked in a deep voice: "What time is it now?"
Qiu Xuanzhi hurriedly looked at the clepsydra on the wall and replied respectfully, "Prime Minister Ai, the twilight hour is approaching."
Ai Lang recalled the absurd instruction given to him by the emperor, which coincided with the release time at this moment.
He stared at the two figures walking away, his eyes slightly narrowed, and murmured softly, "No wonder His Majesty repeatedly reminded me of this. So that's why."
Qiu Xuanzhi frowned slightly and looked in the direction the old man was looking. Wang and Lin were no longer in sight. He withdrew his gaze in confusion, secretly wondering what the person above had said.
At this moment, there were already many carriages waiting in line at the entrance of the Imperial Examination Hall. The appearance of Wang and Lin at the entrance did not cause any commotion. The coachmen just glanced at them lightly and then stared at the vermilion lacquered gate, waiting for the people they were going to pick up.
The two old men looked around but couldn't find their own carriage. Although they had expected this, they still smiled wryly at each other.
Wang Cheng sighed deeply, "It seems that nothing major has happened in Yanjing these past two days. It's been a rare peaceful time."
"We are just waiting for the right opportunity. Let's go and rent a carriage to go to the city gate." Lin Yuzan responded as he walked towards the unmarked carriage.
In the second exam, they were not the first candidates to hand in their papers. The car rental company got wind of it and parked two carriages there to pick up passengers.
Just then, a familiar call came into the ears of the two old men.
"Dad, uncle, Sister Qing is here."
Wang and Lin: .....
The two turned around in surprise and saw a unique carriage parked at the corner of the Imperial Examination Hall.
The little kid was sticking his head out and waving at them.
The next moment, she was pulled back into the carriage. Wan Niang's face appeared before the two men and she explained, "Brother, husband, Sister Qing is at home making a fuss about picking you two up, and the Crown Prince wants to see you two."
The two old men had already guessed who the owner was from the style of the carriage. Their eyes met in the air, and they frowned at the same time, cursing in their hearts: What tricks is this old man trying to play?
The two old men got on the carriage reluctantly, and the carriage started and slowly drove towards the Lin family.
Wang and Lin's eyes quickly swept across the packed carriage, lingering for a moment at the child's slightly red eyes. They then saluted the naughty child and asked in unison, "What instructions does the prince have for us?"
Sheng Hongtong was still in shock over the golden bed. When he saw them, he asked in disbelief, "Cousin, I just want to know how your husband earned a golden bed. He's just a bookworm who can cook!"
As soon as these words fell, the two of them heard the giggles of two little kids.
Wang Cheng: ..., I want to laugh too, but I have to hold it in!
Lin Yuzan: (*  ̄︿ ̄), he is indeed the old man’s son, just as annoying!
Xiao Shunzi suddenly felt embarrassed. He whispered in his master's ear, "Your Highness, you are still young. There is no rush to earn a golden bed."
Lin Yuzan suppressed his temper and sat down, holding his daughter in his arms. He patted her little bottom as a warning, flicked the little boy's head, and then comforted him, "Your Highness, the treasures in His Majesty's private treasury are much more valuable than the golden bed."
Upon hearing this, the naughty child's mood was immediately calmed down and he stopped worrying about the golden bed.
However, the little baby in the old man's arms was emotional.
Little Yining raised her head with tears in her eyes, looking at her father aggrievedly: "Dad, there are really many treasures in Uncle Grandpa's private vault. Sister Qing wants to go."
Lin Yuzan: ...
The old man looked at his short-sighted daughter speechlessly. Just as he was about to scold her, the young boy opposite him laughed smugly.
"The rare treasures in my father's private treasury are beyond the reach of even a golden bed, Sister Qing."
Seeing the child's face becoming increasingly pitiful, the two old men finally understood where the red circles under his eyes came from. They couldn't help but curse inwardly, "This brat!" Even their seemingly respectful faces showed a hint of displeasure.
Xiao Shunzi keenly noticed the delicate atmosphere and hurriedly talked about the instructions his godfather had given him to ease the atmosphere.
However, as soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the car reversed.
When Wan Niang and her daughter heard this, they were both moved.
Little Yining felt that she was ready again, and said to her mother happily, "Mom, Uncle is so kind to Sister Qing. He said he doesn't want Sister Qing's golden bed anymore."
Wan Niang responded gently, "Then Qing Jie'er, remember, next time, don't use the birthday gift your father gave you as a bet."
This is a conversation between mother and daughter when both of them are not optimistic about their men.
Here are some conversations where men are optimistic about themselves:
Lin Yuzan glanced at them both helplessly, and revealed another meaning in Xiao Shunzi's words.
"Eunuch Xiao Shunzi, His Majesty means that he cannot provide ten golden beds and wants to make this bet void."
Wan Niang and her daughter: ...
Xiao Shunzi:......
"I am just delivering the message. I dare not speculate on the details." Xiao Shunzi replied vaguely.
Wang Cheng shook his head with a smile and looked at his niece, "Qing Jie'er, your bet is too big, and it makes His Majesty feel sorry for his own money."
Xiao Yining: ??^??, no wonder old baby didn’t want to see her, it turns out he wanted to fly away her ten golden beds!
"Sister Qing is so stupid! Oh, Lin Yuzan, you hit me again!" Wang Gungun took the opportunity to complain, and was once again given a brain-wrecking blow by the old man.
Sheng Hongtong's eyes wandered over the few people, and he said in surprise, "How could my father not be able to pay the silver? The entire Great Zhou belongs to him."
Wang and Lin: →_→, guess!
The two old men didn't want to pay any attention to the little brat. They gave him a look that showed they understood, then closed their eyes and rested.
The naughty kid scratched his head, immediately remembered the key words, and asked hurriedly: "Cousin-in-law, can you really get into the top three?"
Lin Yuzan sneered and opened his eyes, confidently saying, "I will definitely be in the top three."
Sheng Hongtong: ∑( ̄□ ̄;), is this nerd who can only cook so knowledgeable?
At that moment, the naughty kid suddenly felt that things were getting serious.
He absolutely refused to believe that his father, who controlled the Zhou Dynasty, could not even give him ten golden beds.
Suddenly, the voice of a naughty child broke out from the carriage, "Quick, quick, this prince wants to go back to the palace!"
As soon as the order was given, the carriage suddenly accelerated, stopped briefly in front of the Lin family's door, and then drove away quickly.
Lin Yuzan carried his daughter, who was doubting her life, into the house, pinched her red nose, and said soothingly, "Alright, Daddy may not be able to get into the top three. What I said just now was just to piss off Your Majesty. Now that I can keep the golden bed, Daddy can rest a little easier."
Unexpectedly, the little kid in his arms, upon hearing this, immediately shook off his lethargic state, held his face with his chubby hands, and said solemnly, "Dad, you must be in the top three. Yesterday, Sister Qing used an IOU to place a bet on you."
IOU?
An IOU for two hundred thousand taels?
Lin Yuzan paused, his face froze for a moment, and then he gritted his teeth and cursed, "This old man is so shameless! He even schemed against a child!
The Lin family was also thrown into chaos because of the little boy's words.
Wanniang: "Sister Qing, you're gambling again!"
Wang Gungun: "Qingjie, your butt is going to burst!"
Lin Yuzan: "Wanniang, don't be angry. This is definitely not Sister Qing's fault!"
Wang Cheng: "Yes, yes, I learned this from my father! Wan Niang, we should correct it. Don't hit Qing Jie'er."
Little Yining: "Mom, Sister Qing is helping Sister Shi!"
Wan Niang: "You're still trying to argue with me, all of you, get out of my way!"
Xiao Yining: (╥╯^╰╥), she feels so wronged!
small theater:
Sheng Hongtong: Father, are you out of money?
emperor:…
Sheng Hongtong: Why did you cancel Qing Jie'er's pledge? Are you afraid that Lin Yuzan will be among the top three?
emperor:......
Sheng Hongtong: Father, Lin Yuzan said that he will definitely be in the top three!
Emperor: (?? ?), drag the prince away to me, no one is allowed to come in without my order!
Sheng Hongtong: Father, you really have no money! Father, why do you have no money...
Emperor: (Fuck, fuck), Lin Yuzan...
