The ancients' calligraphy and painting were integrated, and they all belonged to the category of self-cultivation. As the crown prince, Li Jingnan naturally studied, but he could not be said to be good at painting. After all, he was only nine years old.
but…
Li Jingnan glanced at the card in Hua Qingxue's hand. The black lines on it outlined a strange shape, which looked like a smiling face or crying. The little emperor suddenly felt confident and raised his eyebrows and said, "It's acceptable."
Hua Qingxue couldn't be more familiar with this expression, so she also laughed, "Okay, then you draw it, and I'll tell you what you need to draw."
The two people got busy happily.
Xiaodouzi glanced at the sky outside, then looked at Li Jingnan, but hesitated to speak.
Monopoly's chessboard has already been patterned, and Li Jingnan only needs to draw patterns on the corresponding grids according to Hua Qingxue's requirements. There are also chance cards and destiny cards, which also need to be painted with patterns.
Xiaodouzi was not idle either, and was ordered by them to polish the wooden chess pieces.
Li Jingnan liked these novel things and was very busy.
Hua Qingxue and him were tinkering with the chessboard while explaining the rules of Monopoly. This game is very complicated to explain in detail, so it would be easier to understand if you just play it once.
But Monopoly is not a backgammon game where the winner can be determined quickly. If we really want to play, I'm afraid it will be night again.
Seeing that it was getting dark outside, Hua Qingxue couldn't help but rub her belly. She was busy with the chessboard today and hadn't had time to eat yet.
"How about you go back to the palace first? Anyway, everything is done and we can play again tomorrow." Hua Qingxue said.
"It's hard to finish it. Let's play a game first and then go back." Li Jingnan's face wrinkled and he was very unhappy. "I don't know when I can come out after I go back."
Hua Qingxue sympathized with him for hiding in the palace every day, and felt a little soft-hearted. Just when he was about to agree, Xiaodouzi suddenly interrupted: "Your Majesty, the palace servants who made mistakes are still waiting for you to go back and make a decision. If you go back too late, I'm afraid something will happen. …”
Li Jingnan's face turned cold and he shouted angrily: "You slave! Who told you to talk too much?!"
Hua Qingxue was stunned by Li Jingnan's change of expression. She didn't react for a long time, "...Why did you say that to Xiaodouzi? He is doing it for your own good."
Li Jingnan's expression returned to normal, with a rebellious look, "It's nothing, I just dislike him for being verbose."
Xiaodouzi glanced at Hua Qingxue and said boldly: "Your Majesty, if the Queen Mother knows about punishing the palace people..."
Before he finished speaking, Li Jingnan kicked him in the heart! He said angrily: "Shut up!"
"Xiaodouzi!" Hua Qingxue exclaimed.
She hurriedly ran over to help Xiaodouzi on the ground, but Xiaodouzi threw away her hand, knelt on the ground in panic, and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, calm down! Your Majesty, calm down!"
Hua Qingxue helped him up twice, but failed to help him up. She looked at Li Jingnan and said, "Get him up quickly!"
"Just let him kneel down!" Li Jingnan said in a fierce tone, "Do you think I don't know about this little idea? I want to plead for those idiots while you are here, Xiaodouzi, don't you think so?! "
Xiaodouzi's face turned pale, and he knelt on the ground and trembled, "Please forgive me..."
Hua Qingxue frowned and asked, "What on earth is going on?!"
Li Jingnan sneered disdainfully, "It's nothing, I'm just in a bad mood. I punished a few people in the palace, but he is soft-hearted. He wants to save everyone, and he doesn't think about how those people bullied him before! It's really useless. s things!"
As he spoke, his anger surged up again, and he kicked Xiaodouzi twice more, neither lightly nor hard.
Hua Qingxue didn't know Xiaodouzi well, but because Xiaodouzi always followed Li Jingnan, she had to get familiar with him.
Xiaodouzi usually doesn't talk much. He does whatever Li Jingnan asks him to do. Sometimes Li Jingnan is in a bad mood and will vent on him. Beating and scolding are common, but because it's not too much, he will hit him with a brush at most. It hit her head so hard that Hua Qingxue never said anything.
But this time Li Jingnan went too far and kicked people in the heart!
Hua Qingxue stared at Li Jingnan and said with certainty: "If it was just an ordinary punishment, Xiaodouzi wouldn't be like this, it must be a very serious matter!"
Li Jingnan lost his good temper and retorted: "As an emperor, why can't I punish them?!"
Hua Qingxue pursed her lips and remained silent for a while, then asked Li Jingnan: "What mistake did they make?"
"They broke the mirror, so they should die to apologize!" When he mentioned this, Li Jingnan became angry. That was the mirror he was going to give to the Liao envoy to show off! He was broken into pieces by that despicable slave!
Hua Qingxue looked at him in disbelief, "Just because you broke the mirror... you want them to die?"
Li Jingnan replied of course: "Otherwise, why should we keep him? A severe punishment can serve as a warning to others!"
"You... you..." Hua Qingxue was so angry that she could hardly speak.
The back of the mirror is inlaid with gold and silver. It will definitely not be broken. What is broken is nothing more than the mirror. This thing looks extremely precious now. In fact, if you look deeper, the cost of the mirror back is not even half a tael. !
Just because of something worth less than half a tael, Li Jingnan actually wanted to do this cruel thing!
"You've gone too far!" Hua Qingxue said angrily, "What's the difference between this and taking human life lightly?!"
Li Jingnan was very upset when he saw that she was also annoyed with him, "I didn't kill him, I just hit him fifty times and chopped off his fingers..."
When Hua Qingxue heard this, she was so angry that the blood in her body surged, and she felt dizzy in front of her eyes!
If Fu Tingye wants to hit his soldiers fifty times, she won't say anything, because all the soldiers in the military camp are strong and can bear it! But these eunuchs in the palace... their bodies are not much stronger than those of women. How can they survive the fifty-fifty battle without losing their lives? ! What's more, Li Jingnan actually wanted to chop off his fingers!
Hua Qingxue was really mad at Li Jingnan! Suddenly he shouted without restraint: "Is this how you become an emperor?! What did you tell me back then? You said you would be a good emperor!"
Li Jingnan's face froze slightly and he looked at her coldly, "Why, you want to teach me how to be an emperor too?"
"There are obviously many ways to solve it! Why do you have to let him die?! You also have to chop off his fingers! You, where did you learn this?! You are going too far! You are going too far!" Hua Qingxue was almost about to die The words are incoherent, and I can't find a suitable word to teach Li Jingnan!
Li Jingnan originally wanted to come here to relieve his mood, but he didn't expect Hua Qingxue to quarrel with him and was very annoyed!
"I didn't punish him because of you! What he broke was the mirror you made! You actually blamed me!"
"But I didn't ask you to beat him to death! And I didn't ask you to chop off other people's fingers!"
Hua Qingxue's chest heaved violently, and her cheeks turned red due to the sudden anger. Seeing Li Jingnan's unrepentant look, she was not only angry, but also heartbroken! "You're like this. You give people away to big houses when you're happy, and you chop off people's fingers when you're unhappy. It's so cruel and unreasonable! Do you think that if I offend you one day, you will chop off my fingers too?!"
"Tyrant?... Do you think I am a tyrant?" Li Jingnan's eyes were red and his little fists were clenched tightly.
Hua Qingxue bit her lip and replied, "At least Mingjun Renjun will never kill someone just because of a mirror!"
Li Jingnan was so angry that he was shaking and wanted to yell! But in the end, he didn't say anything. He kicked the dumbfounded Xiaodouzi beside him and shouted: "What are you doing so stupidly?! Go back to the palace!"
After that, turn around and leave!
Xiaodouzi scrambled to his feet and hurriedly followed him.
Hua Qingxue watched the two people leave, then looked at the Monopoly chessboard she had just finished, and pushed it aside angrily!
…
Fu Tingye came to see Hua Qingxue in the evening, and she told Fu Tingye that she had a quarrel with the little emperor.
"We had a falling out," she said. The anger in my heart didn't go away at all, and I was so angry that I didn't even eat.
Fu Tingye didn't know what kind of mentality he was in. After knowing the news, he was actually a little happy... It was really subtle.
He took Hua Qingxue out for dinner. After filling her stomach, Hua Qingxue's mood calmed down a little.
Recalling the extreme words she said during the quarrel just now, I couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"If I scold him like that, will he be so angry that he wants to chop off my head?" Hua Qingxue murmured to herself.
Fu Tingye was picking up food for her, and when he heard this, his lips curled up, "He doesn't have the ability."
Although Li Jingnan is the emperor, he actually has no real power. When it comes to internal affairs, he is ignored by the Prime Minister and Prince Ning. When it comes to military aircraft, the military power is in the hands of Fu Tingye. Fu Tingye can protect whomever he wants. Even if Li Jingnan is the emperor, what can he do
Hua Qingxue felt very uncomfortable when she heard Fu Tingye commenting on Li Jingnan like this. She couldn't help but said: "You can't always look down on him like this and let him sit in that position without giving him the corresponding respect. This is very irresponsible. What should I do if his temper becomes extreme and he becomes a perverted emperor in the future?"
Fu Tingye was speechless, "Just now you were worried that he would chop your head off, and now you are speaking for him."
"I just said casually, he won't chop off my head." Hua Qingxue replied firmly.
Fu Tingye put vegetables into her bowl and said nonchalantly: "Eat, don't worry about him, that's his life, what does he think about, what kind of person does he want to be, what does it have to do with us? We Don’t be responsible for his growth.”
He is not the emperor and his father.
"Even if he really grows crooked, it's not a big deal. It's just a change of person sitting in that position." Fu Tingye said lightly.
Hua Qingxue immediately thought of Prince Ning.
Although she had never met that person, he would immediately launch an attack after the death of his own brother, regardless of whether his nephew was alive or dead outside, with the intention of taking the throne himself - such a person has formed an insidious and despicable image in her mind.
He would certainly not be a good emperor.
"When he comes to see me next time, I will talk to him properly." Hua Qingxue swallowed a mouthful of food and said firmly.
She always believed that Li Jingnan's nature was good. He just lost his father suddenly and was in such a situation, and lost himself for a while.
Fu Tingye laughed when he heard this.
After being scolded like this, if Li Jingnan is still willing to come to Hua Qingxue, wouldn't it be too cheap
