Happy Little Scholar

Chapter 161: The Prince Presents a Gift

"What makes Brother Feng so angry?"

From a distance, I saw Professor Feng blowing his beard and staring. Many people who were familiar with him came over. One of them, a middle-aged man, looked at him and asked with some confusion.

"That's all, don't mention this matter again!" Professor Feng was afraid that if he continued to talk about this matter, he would be angry with the unenterprising scholar, so he waved his hand and said.

"Haha, could it be that Lieutenant Li offended Professor Feng again?"

A slightly teasing voice came. When everyone turned their heads to look, they all straightened up, cupped their fists and said, "Master Dong."

The person who came was none other than Magistrate Dong.

Magistrate Dong smiled, waved his hand and said: "Tonight there is only Dong Wenyun, there is no Mr. Dong."

Seeing that Magistrate Dong was so casual, everyone gradually relaxed, and finally one person couldn't help but asked: "I wonder what the hell is going on with the Lieutenant Li County that Brother Wen Yun just mentioned?"

Magistrate Dong laughed and said, "I have to ask Professor Feng about this matter."

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Professor Feng couldn't hide it anymore, so he told the story from beginning to end.

"You don't want to be an official?"

"A stubborn disease that prevents you from becoming an official? Brother Feng actually believes this excuse..."

"The "Disciples' Regulations" is an excellent piece of work. I just read it yesterday."

"I heard that the newly appointed Anxi County Captain was personally conferred by His Majesty. Is it true or not?"

"Of course this is true, but since he has contributed to education, he should be made an academic officer. Why did your Majesty choose to make him a county lieutenant?"

After everyone listened to Professor Feng's narration, they began to talk. Magistrate Dong coughed dryly and said, "Your Majesty's move must have some deep meaning. We cannot make rash guesses."

The officials who were curious about this matter immediately fell silent when they heard this.

It is a taboo for an official to presume on the divine will.

"Is that person just now really Lieutenant Li County?"

Magistrate Liu followed Magistrate Dong, the familiar back figure from before appeared in his mind, and his heart trembled again.

He was also favored by Magistrate Dong, and was qualified to come here tonight, but he acted cautiously, for fear of accidentally offending some important person.

But look at Lieutenant Li, who is still so neither humble nor arrogant in the face of Professor Feng, who is much higher in rank than him, and leaves calmly afterwards, as if the palace is his own home. To say that he is just an ordinary person The county lieutenant, even if he beat the county magistrate Liu to death, he wouldn’t believe it...

No, it seems that after returning to the county government office today, I have to give another serious warning to the traitor. During the recent period, I will stay in the government office and avoid going out to cause trouble for him. Let’s forget the misunderstanding with Lieutenant Li as soon as possible...

"I heard that my sister suffered from a serious illness a few days ago. I should have come to visit her, but it was not easy to get out of the palace. Now that I see that my sister looks very good, I feel relieved." The graceful and luxurious woman pulled Princess Ning. hand and said with a smile on his face.

"Thank you for your concern, my concubine. My body is now fine." Princess Ning said in a soft voice.

The beautiful woman clapped her hand and said, "What do you think of me as a concubine but not a concubine? There are no outsiders here. It's fine that you and I are sisters."

After saying that, a look of confusion appeared on her face and she said, "By the way, why didn't you see Xuan'er today?"

Princess Ning smiled and said, "He doesn't know that my sister is here. I'm afraid she's still in the room. I'll send someone to call her right away."

As soon as she finished speaking, a figure walked in from the door.

"Father, mother!"

Li Xuan just stepped into the door and saw that besides his mother, there was a woman in the house. When he saw her face clearly, he was stunned for a moment, and then immediately fell to the ground: "Xuan'er has seen the empress!"

The gorgeous and beautiful woman immediately showed a smile on her face, walked up to him personally, helped him up, and said, "You kid, we haven't seen each other for several years, but you are so polite to me."

He looked Li Xuan up and down, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "We haven't seen each other for a few years. Xuan'er has really grown up. With such a talented person, who can remember the little kid who had a runny nose all day long?" Guy?"

Li Xuan's face turned slightly red after what the beautiful woman said. When he was a child, he was sent to the palace to receive education with the princes and princesses. At that time, the empress treated him very well. She was far away from the palace and was in Kyoto, so he was often bullied by the princes. , and when he was bullied, the empress would stand up for him every time, reprimanding and punishing the princes. During that period of time, his feelings for the empress even exceeded that of his biological mother.

To this day, he still remembers that after being beaten up by Mingzhu, the princes who bullied him would stand in a row and let the Queen reprimand her with a straight face... Whenever this happened, he would stand behind the Queen and steal. Laughing, even though my nose was bruised and my face was swollen, I was very happy in my heart.

After seeing the Queen again after several years, it was inevitable that she would feel a little alienated, but after what the other party said, the estrangement caused by time was instantly eliminated.

"You just wanted to give a gift to the princess. Let the queen see what good things Xuan'er gave to the princess?" After the beautiful woman sat back on the main seat, she still looked at Li Xuan and asked with a smile.

Li Xuan waved to the door, and a servant came in carrying an exquisite brocade box.

Li Xuan took the brocade box from his hand, knelt down respectfully in front of Princess Ning, and said, "My child, I wish my mother and concubine to stay young forever and live as long as heaven!"

He usually felt closer to his father and mother, but in such a serious occasion, he even addressed them solemnly.

"What about ageless beauty, eternal youth... Where did you learn these words from?" Princess Ning was also stunned when she heard what he said. This was the first time she heard such birthday congratulations.

However, although she was surprised, she was still a little happy in her heart. After all, as a woman, who doesn't want to have an ageless face? Even if she knew that this was impossible, who doesn't like to hear good words?

Li Xuan got up from the ground, opened the brocade box himself, and took out an exquisite porcelain bottle.

In order to avoid misunderstandings, the original porcelain bottle of Ruyi Lu had naturally been replaced by him. This porcelain bottle was exquisite and unusual. After opening it, a faint fragrance escaped from the bottle.

"What a nice fragrance... What is this?"

Seeing the princess looking at him, Li Xuan explained: "This thing is called perfume, which is made from the essence of flower petals..."

He said the magical words that Li Yi taught him, and not only the princess, but also the queen was frightened.

Women are naturally sensitive to perfume. Even if they have never heard of it before, they can understand its use as long as they think about it.

Which woman doesn't want to be special? No matter where she goes, she has a fresh and elegant unique smell. No woman can refuse such a gift.

Looking at the "perfume" in the hands of Princess Ning, the Queen sitting at the top showed a little envy on her face, and a hint of loneliness that no one noticed. (To be continued.)
