A crack appeared in the perfect expression of the Crown Princess.
The story began when the four little men played blindfold tag.
This game was suggested by Ming"er. Back in the State of Liang, he often saw his imperial grandfather and his concubines playing this game and remembered it in his heart.
The four people first played rock-paper-scissors to decide who was to be blindfolded first, and the result was Qin Chuyu.
Qin Chuyu was blindfolded and started catching people. Little Jing Kong and Xu Zhouzhou, who did not understand the rules of the game, laughed loudly and were successfully caught by Qin Chuyu, but Ming"er didn"t get caught.
The rule was that the first caught person would start counting until the end of the round, and if the blindfolded person couldn"t catch the remaining people within 100 counts, he would lose.
And the first person caught would be the one to be blindfolded in the next round.
The second one to be blindfolded was Xu Zhouzhou.
Qin Chuyu couldn’t hold back his laughter and was successfully caught by Xu Zhouzhou.
Little Jing Kong, the clumsy little bun, tripped up and made a noise, and was successfully caught as well.
On the other hand, Ming"er continued to win.
This repeated several times with Ming"er not being caught once.
Finally, it was Little Jing Kong"s turn to be blindfolded, and he was the first to catch Ming"er.
Ming"er thought Little Jing Kong cheated.
"I didn"t!" Little Jing Kong pulled down the strip of cloth from his eyes and said firmly.
Ming"er: "Then how did you know I was here?"
"There was a sound!" Little Jing Kong meant he heard him make a sound.
"I didn"t speak!" Ming"er was confident that he hadn"t made any noise.
Little Jing Kong felt so vexed that he stomped his feet about, "You made a sound! You did! You exhaled! You exhaled five times! Three heavy and two light!"
Little Jing Kong practiced basic martial art skills every morning and night every day. He could even hear the rustle of a leaf, so how could he not hear people’s breathing?
But Ming"er didn’t believe it at all!
He arrogantly declared, "You, are, cheating!"
Xu Zhouzhou and Qin Chuyu firmly stood up for their good friend.
Xu Zhouzhou: "Jing Kong has always been very smart!"
Qin Chuyu: "That’s right! He can do anything! Test him if you don"t believe me!"
And thus, the subject was shifted by Little Jing Kong’s two small teammates who defended him to death.
The two people then began a recital compet.i.tion from Three-Character Cla.s.sics to Thousand-Character Essays, and from Three Hundred Ancient Poems to Four Books and Five Cla.s.sics.
At the beginning, the two were evenly matched, but by the end, Ming"er gradually struggled, while Little Jing Kong was still able to recite with ease.
Seeing that they were comparing notes by reciting what they learned, people of the palace didn"t come forward in a hurry to stop them.
When Ming’er stammered for the third time, unable to recite the correct words which were then easily recited by Little Jing Kong, Ming"er"s mood suddenly erupted. He reached out and pushed Little Jing Kong to the ground!
They were on the lawn, so it really didn’t hurt. It was just that Little Jing Kong was a little stupefied.
Seeing this, Xu Zhouzhou got angry.
You dare bully my friend, I"ll let you walk on your knees today!
Xu Zhouzhou lunged forward and punched Ming"er to the ground.
The court lady and the attendant quickly rushed forward to pull several children away from each other, but it was still too late. Qin Chuyu, the little fat man, also joined in beating up people.
Little Jing Kong was too small to squeeze himself in, so he simply hugged Ming"er"s foot and prevented him from kicking Xu Zhouzhou and Qin Chuyu.
The strength of the three little buns was nothing to scoff at.
They were not called the Imperial Academy’s three little thugs for nothing.
By the time the four children were separated, Ming"er"s face was swollen.
As for the three little buns… They were unscathed!
Yu Qinw.a.n.gfei had fallen asleep in the sunshine, so she failed to hear the commotion right at the beginning. When she arrived at the scene, Ming"er"s face had swollen into a steamed stuffed bun.
The Crown Princess hurriedly explained the ins and outs of the incident to Yu Qinw.a.n.gfei, without embellishing it or deliberately concealing some parts.
The Crown Princess thought that Yu Qinw.a.n.gfei would fly into a rage and harshly scold people for her son. Unexpectedly, she just calmly said to her attendant, "Take Ming"er to change clothes first."
"Yes!"
The attendant took Ming"er away without delay.
Yu Qinw.a.n.gfei never punished the servants in front of his son.
As Ming"er walked away with the attendant, he looked back at Yu Qinw.a.n.gfei.
To his surprise, his mother didn"t punish those few little buns who just bullied him. Instead, she crouched down in front of the youngest one, took out a handkerchief and wiped the other party’s face.
He didn"t hear what his mother said to that little bun, but the way his mother treated him was very gentle, which made him feel a pang in his heart
After such a big incident, the Crown Princess naturally needed to strictly educate Qin Chuyu.
Qin Chuyu used to be so timid, but now he knew how to defend his friends to death!
When this news reached the Emperor’s ears, he could not help but blame the Crown Prince and Crown Princess for not teaching their younger brother properly.
As for Xu Zhouzhou, the minister of the Ministry of War was scared out of his soul and tremblingly went to the East Palace to pick up his youngest son.
Only Little Jing Kong was left.
He didn"t inform his family that he would enter the palace, so no one was coming to pick him up right now.
He hung his little head low and stared at his little toes sullenly. For a moment, he felt that he had been abandoned by the whole world.Raz P."s Thoughts
