Chapter 90: Halfway through, I suddenly felt greedy



"Fortune telling? Shuangbao can also tell fortunes?" Emperor Chengxuan laughed when he heard this.

He stood up and walked over, holding the little baby in his arms, pinching her soft and cute little face, "Then Shuangbao, please calculate for Daddy first to see if the new system Daddy is going to promote will go smoothly."

Emperor Chengxuan was just joking and didn't expect Xiao Shuangbao to really be able to figure it out.

But Xiao Shuangbao nodded very seriously and agreed:

"OK."

As she spoke, she jumped out of his arms and took out the ancient bronze coin hanging around her neck.

"Daddy, take this copper coin and toss it three times..."

The little baby looks very serious.

But she couldn't hold on for more than two seconds before she suddenly slowed down her speech, staring straight ahead in one direction, and swallowed her saliva before continuing, "Let's see if it's mung bean cake, red bean cake, or osmanthus cake..."

Emperor Cheng Xuan had a question mark on his forehead.

He followed Xiao Shuangbao's gaze and saw that it was Ju Qing with two palace maids, each holding a plate of pastries.

They happened to be mung bean cakes, red bean cakes, and osmanthus cakes.

So, the little baby was halfway through being serious, and suddenly he felt greedy?

Emperor Cheng Xuan immediately shook his head helplessly and amusedly.

Thinking that the child was busy catching ghosts and competing with that old man Lin Anxiong in school today, and was indeed exhausted and must be hungry, he immediately waved to Juqing and the others.

"Which one do you want to eat?"

Emperor Cheng Xuan looked at Xiao Shuangbao and asked in a doting tone.

"Eat... um... no, Shuangbao still needs to tell Daddy's fortune."

The little baby has not been completely overwhelmed by the delicious food and still remembers the important things.

As she spoke, she placed the ancient copper coin in Emperor Cheng Xuan's hand, her eyes unwilling to move away from the cakes for a moment: "Daddy, please toss the copper coin! The cake that the copper coin falls on the plate will be eaten! When you toss it, Daddy will think about the new system we just talked about!"

Emperor Cheng Xuan raised his hand to take the ancient bronze coin and found it magical.

Before, this copper coin turned into a money sword, and he couldn't even lift it.

But now it appears in the form of an ancient bronze coin, and it is very light.

Emperor Cheng Xuan looked at Xiao Shuangbao's cute appearance like a greedy cat, and as she said, he thought about the new system he was going to implement, and then threw it away casually.

The next moment, the ancient copper coin fell on the mung bean cake.

"Daddy, two more times please!" Little Shuangbao swallowed his saliva, suppressing the gluttony in his stomach and said.

Emperor Cheng Xuan did as she said and threw it twice in a row.

The ancient copper coins fell into two different plates.

Xiao Shuangbao's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Oh, Daddy! It's not that Shuangbao is greedy! It's God's guidance that Shuangbao should eat all these cakes!"

"You, then eat it."

Emperor Cheng Xuan put down the ancient bronze coin and shook his head helplessly and lovingly.

Xiao Shuangbao immediately picked up a piece of mung bean cake in one hand and a piece of red bean cake in the other hand with a smile and started eating happily.

The little baby squinted his eyes while eating, with a look of great satisfaction on his face.

Emperor Cheng Xuan felt a strange sense of satisfaction in his heart as he watched her eat so happily.

As for the fortune-telling for him, he no longer took it seriously.

Before long, Xiao Shuangbao had devoured the three plates of pastries cleanly.

She licked her fingers with her little mouth, looking unsatisfied, and burped.

Emperor Cheng Xuan poured her a glass of water and asked her to drink it.

After finishing his drink, Little Shuangbao wiped his mouth and suddenly said, "Daddy, Shuangbao has calculated that this new system you are promoting is a good system that benefits both the country and the people. However, it will be obstructed by three forces. The process will not be smooth and will ultimately fail."

"What?"

Emperor Cheng Xuan was stunned for a moment by her sudden words.

But he quickly realized what was happening, "Shuangbao, do you know which three forces they are?"

"I know."

I saw Xiao Shuangbao pointing his white little finger at the three empty plates in front of him, "Mung bean cakes are for court officials.

“Red bean cakes are for the harem.

“Osmanthus cake is a family-made delicacy.

"Daddy, the court officials and the harem Shuangbao all know what it means, but what is an aristocratic family?"

Her little face was confused.

Although she could calculate these things, she did not understand their meaning.

Emperor Chengxuan's expression gradually became solemn and serious as he listened.

He gently touched Shuangbao's little face, but did not answer immediately. Instead, he thought to himself that if it was really the three forces that Shuangbao said that were obstructing him, then his new policy would indeed have a great possibility of failing.

"Aristocratic families refer to those large and prominent families that have lived through many dynasties. They have often survived many dynasties and have a deep foundation. Talents have emerged from every generation."

But at the same time, they are often very conservative, like a chronic disease of every dynasty.

Shuangbao didn't understand what was said, so Emperor Chengxuan didn't explain too much.

"Then Shuangbao, do you know how daddy should resolve this?" He said half jokingly and half seriously.

"I know." Little Shuangbao nodded and said in a soft and tender voice, "The hexagram shows that if we want to break the deadlock, we must kill a chicken and let a monkey watch."

Emperor Chengxuan was stunned again when he heard this.

The next moment, he reacted and suddenly burst into laughter!

"That's killing the chicken to scare the monkey!"

He pinched Little Frost's nose.

Little Shuangbao realized that he had said the wrong thing, and immediately buried his little head in Emperor Chengxuan's arms in embarrassment, rubbing against him coquettishly.
