Chapter 415 If I could start my life over again
Chapter 415 If I could start my life over again
Tao Yanyan took the lot and looked around, and finally his eyes fell on King Yong. Another colored lot was drawn by King Yong.
Prince Yong's breathing became a little faster for a moment. He pretended to be calm and said, "I didn't expect that I would be drawn twice. I wonder what the problem is this time?"
Princess Yong said, "Why don't I ask the question this time?"
Everyone had no objection, but Prince Yong looked at Princess Yong with some displeasure, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Princess Yong asked, "If time could go back to three years ago, would you two try your best to choose a different path from now?"
When Princess Yong asked this question, everyone was shocked. Prince Su wanted to remind Princess Yong not to ask such a sharp question and to ask another one, but Princess Yong was determined and wanted to ask this one.
He Linzhang glanced at Prince Yong. Three years ago, he fell into the water on his way to the capital and was rescued by Tao Yanyan. If he had not let Tao Yanyan leave at that time... He Linzhang's eyes darkened, and he looked at Prince Yong with a complicated look without saying a word.
Prince Yong seemed to be in deep thought, wondering how to answer this question. In fact, he already had the answer in his mind. He would go all out and choose another path, a path with Tao Yanyan's company. However, he could not say the answer. Once he said it, the entire Prince Yong's Mansion would no longer have any need to exist.
After hesitating for a moment, King Yong wrote the word "no" on the paper.
Tao Yanyan also thought back to three years ago, when she had not yet come to this world, and was still a hard-working worker who could not save much money. If she were asked, she would definitely like to go back to three years ago, not learn to swim, and not drown in the time travel. If the original owner was brought in, the original owner wanted to go to the capital to become a concubine, but unfortunately she died young. If it were the original owner, knowing that she would die early, she would definitely choose another path, not the path of a concubine, but a path of being content with a small fortune and a simple life.
She held the pen and wrote the word "meeting".
After they finished writing and announced their answers, they were actually different!!
King Yong's heart skipped a beat and he looked at Tao Yanyan in disbelief.
He Linzhang was also incredulous. Tao Yanyan wrote the word "will", which meant that if she had the chance to do it again, she would not hope to enter the palace again.
He Linzhang felt like the sky was falling on him. The little concubine must be regretting being with him.
Princess Yong looked at Prince Yong's answer and breathed a sigh of relief, but when she looked at Concubine Tao's, she suddenly became a little worried. She carefully glanced at the emperor and saw that his face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
Not only Princess Yong, but everyone present dared not breathe, and they even forgot to urge the two of them to pay compensation.
Tao Yanyan skillfully took out five taels of silver and put it into the box on the table. A "dong" sound brought everyone back to their thoughts.
King Yong felt a little happy and quickly took the silver and threw it into the box.
Tao Yanyan looked back and found that He Linzhang was a little depressed. She was stunned, thinking of her previous answer, and blinked: Is this making people angry?
Following the principle that if someone has a big mouth, misunderstandings must be resolved immediately, she leaned over tenderly and took He Linzhang's arm, "Your Majesty, you also feel sorry for the money, right? It's our family that lost the most. Oh, no, Prince Yong's family also lost the most."
He Linzhang: “…”
Is this a matter of losing money?
This is clearly something you don't want to enter the palace for!
He Linzhang secretly told himself that he should pay attention to his image as a king and consider the overall situation. He should wait until he returned to the bedroom to vent his anger. He took several deep breaths before he managed to let his complexion slowly return to normal.
Prince Su swallowed his saliva and quickly tried to smooth things over: "Why don't we change to another game? It's boring to play the same game all the time."
He Linzhang objected: "Let's play this. I will draw the lot. If Concubine Tao draws the lot again, I will ask the question."
Tao Yanyan: “…”
It's so hard to appease His Majesty when he's angry. It seems I can only go back and look through the books that the Queen Mother gave me before.
When everyone heard this, they were shocked. His Majesty was really arguing with him! But they could only play along, and they all prayed that Concubine Tao would not be drawn again.
As expected, Tao Yanyan drew the colored lot for the third time. Even she smiled embarrassedly: "Haha, maybe if I go to the gambling house, I can win every time I bet." This luck is really unmatched!
Simply speechless and choked!
After a round of draws, the other lot was actually in He Linzhang's hand.
Prince Su was annoyed. He felt that because he proposed playing this game today, his position as prince might be in danger.
He wanted to slap himself a few times. Why was he playing this game? Why was he playing this game?
The emperor's temper may come and go, and there is no guarantee that he will not get angry!
Even if you don't get angry on the spot, he will make things difficult for you in private.
Prince Su looked hopeless and waited for His Majesty's question to decide his fate.
He Linzhang narrowed his eyes, looked at Tao Yanyan and asked, "What am I to you?"
Tao Yanyan looked at him with his big round eyes and thought: See, it's really hard to coax His Majesty when he's angry. I even have to coax him in front of everyone. It's so embarrassing.
She bit her lip and said, "I will write it down, and Your Majesty must also write down the answer. This question is not for me alone."
After that, he wrote seriously on the paper. He Linzhang hummed lightly, thought about it, and wrote down the words.
They both gave their answers at the same time. He Linzhang wrote, "I don't know." Tao Yanyan wrote, "My dear little lord who loves me the most."
When the princesses saw Concubine Tao's answer, they were so ashamed that they could not bear to look. Even the always joking Prince Su felt inferior to her and screamed like a groundhog in his heart: Jijijiji, Concubine Tao is indeed Concubine Tao. No wonder she hugged His Majesty and called him "Little Prince" when she was drunk. It turns out that you are so brave even when you are not drunk!
Prince Yong's face turned pale and he was almost unable to bear the pain in his heart.
He Linzhang didn't expect Tao Yanyan to write so bluntly. The tips of his ears turned a little red, and his anger had mostly subsided.
Tao Yanyan knew that today's incident would definitely become a topic of laughter in the various royal palaces after-dinner talk, but she had no choice. The man in front of her was very stingy. If she couldn't coax him now, she would be the one to suffer when she returned.
She blushed and smiled, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you princes and princesses, but your majesty and I have not given the same answer this time. You must be fined ten taels of silver." After she said that, she asked Qingfeng to take out ten taels of silver and put them in the box.
"Your Majesty, we lost again. We didn't bring much money with us today. If we want to continue playing, I'm afraid we can only keep a record." After she finished speaking, she glanced at Prince Su, who understood and immediately said, "We can play another day. How about we go to a restaurant in the city to have a meal with the money we earned today?"
