Chapter 407: The Ball Must Be Response
Tuanzi answered every question in a clear and logical manner: "I chose Brother Xiaoxian because Xinbao wanted to see him every day; I chose Brother Si because Xinbao thought that Brother Si might like shopping and infrastructure. So if the two of them are together, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"
She raised her little hand high, made a "2" sign, and looked at him with her big eyes.
Still the best of both worlds? ?
Emperor Mingpei continued to laugh: "Do you think I will agree?"
"Of course I will agree!" Tuanzi confidently compared himself: "Because Xinbao is a ball, I will agree if there is a ball."
Pfft! Second brother and Yuan Shenjue couldn't help but laugh.
Emperor Mingpei tapped her forehead and said, "You will respond if there is a ball? I think you are using the ball to commit crimes!!"
As he spoke, he couldn't help but laugh: "Since Qiu has said so, then I will agree. Xuan'er, keep an eye on it and don't turn it into a vegetable field for me."
"No," Yuan Shenjue replied, "Xinbao prefers to grow herbs, and growing vegetables is a waste of talent...Xuan'er must keep a close eye on her and not let her grow a herb garden."
The four of them had dinner together, and Tuanzi remembered to ask Yuan Shenjue: "Did Dabai go to see Grandma?"
"He went," Yuan Shenjue said, "but he never came back. I'll ask someone to go ask him later."
Xinbao nodded and asked again, "Why did Xiaohuashi disappear?"
"I don't know," Yuan Shenjue said, "He hasn't come to see me. I don't know where he went."
Emperor Mingpei said: "This man is a capable person, his disguise is really amazing."
Yuan Shenjue said, "Your Majesty, I heard that he figured out this skill by himself. He became famous because of his disguise skills. No one knew that he was the owner of the Changmu Fei'er Tower before. When Xuan'er sees him, can you bring him to the palace to meet Xinbao?"
Emperor Mingpei said, "Yes."
After the four of them had their meal, Yan Shirong returned to the East Palace, Yuan Shenjue left the palace, and Xinbao was still taking a nap in the Qianqing Palace.
This time, Emperor Mingpei slept with his granddaughter for more than a quarter of an hour, and woke up feeling refreshed.
Xinbao also slept for an hour, had some snacks and returned to the palace. Then he couldn't wait to call his parents and continued to paint the imperial garden.
She looked very carefully and slowly, but after looking for an entire afternoon, she didn't find any new species.
Xinbao was not discouraged. He continued to brush the brush the next day after returning from the Qianqing Palace.
But this time, she didn't invite her parents, but went directly to next door to call her older brother.
Yan Shifan and the others have been very idle recently, and it is not convenient for them to go out of the palace every day. Most of them stay in the room reading or chatting, so when she called, the big brother followed her out.
They came out of Fuzhen Palace and passed by the gate of Chengqian Palace.
In broad daylight, the gate of Chengqian Palace was open. When Xinbao arrived at the door, he grabbed his elder brother's hand and ran away...
But Yan Shifan didn't react in time, and was not moved at all by her little strength. Xinbao bounced back and hit his older brother.
The older brother opened his big hands and caught her little head: "Why are you running? Be careful not to fall."
"Shh!" Xinbao glanced at him secretly: "Keep your voice down! Let's go quickly! Don't let anyone see us!"
The older brother picked her up and held her in his arms, and as he walked away, he asked, "Why are you speaking so quietly? Why are you sneaking around?"
Xinbao covered his mouth and looked back: "Don't let Daddy and Mommy hear it! Xinbao didn't call them today."
Yan Shifan smiled and said, "Why didn't you call them?"
Xinbao complained: "They just disappeared as soon as they left. Xinbao couldn't find them and was so anxious. Xinbao doesn't want to take them out to play anymore. Let them go by themselves!"
Yan Shifan was delighted to hear it.
Xinbao is the type of person who, when she is in an unfamiliar place, must have an adult she trusts within her sight.
After she finished one part of her work, she would look up and if the person was still around, she could then go on to the next part with peace of mind. If the person was no longer within her sight, she would start to feel uneasy, worrying about both the adults and herself, and so could not concentrate on her work.
The eldest brother learned the lesson from his parents. He went in and put Tuanzi down on the ground. Then he kept circling around her and stayed in the imperial garden for another afternoon.
The next morning, before Xinbao even woke up, people from the inner court came.
The eunuch admiral who came was named Wan Daquan. He had a big, round face. When he was young, he probably had a pair of deep dimples. But now that he is old and his face has become flabby, the dimples have extended and turned into a second chin, which looks very festive.
Although Yan Shisheng and Yuan Shenjue were both only eleven years old, they were both well-known figures in the emperor's presence. Wan Daquan was extremely attentive and respectful.
He brought a rough sketch made by a garden master and said with a smile: "This is a mountain map that we often use in our palace. Because the place is small, there is not much room to display. This pattern was made by me yesterday."
The two of them sat down and watched together, and Yan Qingshan and a few others also gathered around to watch.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
The fourth brother asked, "Should we ask Xinbao what kind he wants?"
"No need," Yuan Shenjue said, "Xinbao must want more places to plant plants. After we finalize the blueprint, we can just tell her which place and what kind of flowers she wants to bloom in what season."
The second brother laughed: "Xiao Jue is right."
The fourth brother said frankly: "I don't understand this, I just follow you to see it."
Yuan Shenjue said: "I don't understand it either, I just read some books..."
Wan Daquan bent over very respectfully beside them, listening to them talking, his smile deepened.
Yuan Shenjue quickly scanned the map, looked up at the others, and seeing that they didn't want to say anything, he probably didn't understand this, so he said directly, "This won't work. You know, the East Six Palaces were originally a group of palaces, and now this area is vacant. The east and north sides are still palaces, but there is a gate on the north side, and the gate of Chengqian Palace faces the garden. Therefore, the layout of the garden must rely on the northeast corner and Changshou Palace. In this way, the garden and the palaces behind will look good, and the overall harmony will not be top-heavy."
"But the map he produced was made entirely around the pond. It's such a small place, but he made the map around the pond, with the 'head' in the center. The 'repair' is too obvious and not pretty. You, Shanzi Zhang, either haven't come in to see it, or you didn't pay enough attention to it."
This last sentence was said to Wan Daquan.
Wan Daquan knelt down immediately and said repeatedly: "It was my negligence. I think I urged him too hastily, so he didn't do it well."
Yuan Shenjue looked at him and said, "Jingren Palace has been demolished for more than two months! I don't care what you are up to, and it is not your turn to test my power. I just want a beautiful garden. If something like this happens again, I will report it to the emperor immediately."
Wan Daquan's face turned green, and he kowtowed repeatedly: "I dare not, I dare not! Please forgive me, Duke!"
Yan Qingshan's family couldn't help but exchange glances with them.
For someone like Yuan Shenjue who has obsessive-compulsive disorder, he demands perfection even in a room. When it comes to building a garden, this eunuch actually dares to use this kind of blueprint to fool him. It is inevitable that he will be angry.
But it’s not strange to be angry, and to dare to say it directly... that really shows that one is strong because he has no desires.
He didn't care at all what these people thought of him, whether they scolded him or not, whether they would complain to the emperor or not, he just wanted the best and fastest.
But it must be said that the more such a person is, the more his subordinates dare not be negligent in the slightest.
After all, it’s hard to beat! !
But it’s better this way. After all, Fourth Brother is interested in trade, and the two of them are concerned about completely different things. Working together for a while is definitely a great growth opportunity for Fourth Brother.
