Chapter 494: Reluctance

Seeing Xiaobao's dissatisfied posture, Huaiyu sat down with a blushing face. An An raised her face and shouted loudly:

"Okay, then let your father write the first couplet, and I will go back and forth with the second couplet."

Leng Xi's face suddenly darkened. Xiaobao didn't answer the couplet that Leng Yu asked just now. If An An could answer the couplet that he asked, Xiaobao would definitely lose. Therefore, he wanted to ask a couplet that she couldn't answer.

of.

Thinking of this, he said with a solemn expression:

"When we are in different generations, how many poets and poets are there in such a country?"

This couplet written by Leng Xi made everyone present take a breath for An An.

This is not a couplet that a child of An An's age can answer. To be more precise, this couplet is somewhat difficult for the adults present.

Luo Lan looked calmly at An An, who was frowning, but Leng Yu broke into a cold sweat for An An.

Li Fei's face showed a proud look. She was sure that An An wouldn't be able to answer this couplet. In this way, even if the two children were tied, it would make sense.

The emperor and Concubine Li looked at the two children with expressions that showed they were watching the fun and not afraid of the trouble.

Leng Xi, who was sitting opposite An An, looked at An An with strange eyes. Her big, dark and shrewd eyes always made him feel familiar, but he couldn't tell what was familiar about her.

Every time he saw An An, he always thought that it was probably because he had met her when he was at Prince Xi's Mansion, so he felt particularly familiar with her eyes!

Xiaobao saw An An hesitating and seemed unable to answer, so he immediately asked with a smile on his face and his hands on his hips:

"How's it going? You can't answer it, can you? Looking at your proud look, I thought you were awesome, but it turned out you were just pretending? Hahaha..."

An An looked at him with wide eyes, rolled her eyes at him, waved her hands disdainfully, and replied loudly:

"I was thinking about how to make it more appropriate. This couplet written by Uncle Wu is not difficult. I am right: Sir, I am also living in exile, and I will stay in the world forever. The white moon and the wind will clear the thatched cottage."

An An's voice fell, and the scene fell silent. Everyone was chewing on this sentence over and over, but Leng Xi's face turned livid.

At this time, the emperor was the first to clapped his hands and kept praising him,

"Okay, that's right. I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I still haven't thought of the second line. I didn't expect An An to be so smart. I'm very surprised."

Being praised by the emperor, An An raised the corners of her mouth slightly, curved a nice arc, and replied humbly:

"Thank you, Grandpa Huang, for your praise, and thank you to Fifth Uncle for being considerate of An An and not embarrassing An An. He only gave An An an ordinary couplet. It was not very difficult. The reason why I replied slowly was because I wanted to learn from the few couplets I came up with.

I just decided to come up with a more smooth one in the second couplet."

Seeing how confident she was, the emperor showed an appreciative smile on his face, while Xiaobao's face was livid and he looked at An An with vicious eyes.

An An pointed at him with one hand, raised her chin and said:

"How about it? If you lose, hurry up and learn how a puppy crawls and howls like a puppy."

Seeing that Xiaobao was about to cry, Luo Lan quickly tried to dissuade her:

"An'an, it's just a joke, don't take it seriously."

"How about that?"

Before An An could speak, Lele was the first to shout loudly:

"I'm willing to admit defeat. If he loses, he has to bark like a dog. If An An loses, he may not be as public as he is. Now that he loses, he must do what he said in advance, otherwise he won't keep his word.

What a good boy."

Huaiyu also echoed there:

"Yes, a man must keep his word and not renege on his word."

Lele stared with big eyes and raised her voice and shouted:

"Yes, Grandpa Huang is the judge. With Grandpa Huang here, if you don't keep your word, then you have committed the crime of deceiving the emperor. If you commit the crime of deceiving the emperor, your whole family will be punished..."

"Stop talking."

Xiaobao blushed, looked at An An, Lele and Huaiyu with his eyes closed, clenched his fists, and shouted loudly through gritted teeth:

"Just bark like a dog, what's the big deal?"

Having said this, he stood up from the chair, bent his knees, bowed, put his hands on the ground, prostrated himself on the ground, bit his lip, and yelled in hatred:

"Woof...woof...woof..."

Hearing his dog barking, An An was the first to laugh,

"Hahaha, you're a pug, let's see if you can brag again from now on."

Lele also laughed along with Piya and said:

"Hahaha, what a cute puppy!"

Leng Xi's face became extremely ugly at this moment. He lowered his voice and yelled at Yu Qiaoqiao beside him:

"Take him back..."

Yu Qiaoqiao lowered her head with a pale face and whispered back:

"good……"

Leaving only one word, she stood up, came to Xiaobao's side, and said in an unhappy tone:

"Let's go home."

Xiaobao's head was lowered, and he bit his lip. Before leaving, he glanced at An An coldly, then glanced at Huaiyu and Lele, then turned and left.

If he loses this time, he won't admit it.

After walking out of the gate of Prince Yu's Mansion, he looked up at Yu Qiaoqiao and asked timidly:

"Mom, are you disappointed?"

Yu Qiaoqiao looked down at him, sighed, shook his head and said:

"Not only is mom disappointed, your dad is also very shameless. It seems that he doesn't discipline you enough at ordinary times. He needs to discipline you more strictly in the future."

"well!"

Xiaobao let out a long sigh, gritted his teeth, and said bitterly:

"It is not a gentleman to refuse to avenge a grudge. Today I lost face in front of the emperor and my father. I will definitely regain it twice as much in the future."

This sentence blurted out from his immature mouth, making Yu Qiaoqiao stunned for a moment.

"Xiaobao..."

Yu Qiaoqiao wanted to persuade him a few words, but saw that he had already quickly got on the carriage, commanded the coachman, and quickly left here and went straight to Prince Xi's Mansion.

Watching the carriage leave, Yu Qiaoqiao sighed helplessly, turned around, picked up her skirt, and got into another carriage...

Xiaobao left, and the three children were very happy. However, under the warning in Luo Lan's eyes, they did not show their excitement on their faces.

After the luncheon, Concubine Li felt a little tired and went back to her room to rest. Leng Xi left, and Leng Yu and Luo Lan also bowed to the emperor and left.

After everyone left, Concubine Li came to the emperor, bowed and saluted:

"Your Majesty, I have something that I don't know whether to tell you or not."

The emperor frowned and looked at her. This Concubine Li always liked to complain recently, especially about Concubine Li. This time she must want to say bad things about Concubine Li again.

Thinking of this, he waved his hand directly and impatiently stopped him:

"I'm tired. Let's talk tomorrow if we have anything to do."

As he spoke, he said to Liu Xi:

"Tell everyone, no matter how big or small, don't disturb me. I want to sleep for a while."

Seeing that the emperor was about to leave, Concubine Li couldn't wait to raise her voice and said:
Chapter completed!
