"The birds are gone, but it's only temporary. Since they're birds, they're destined to fly here and there. It's an inextinguishable nature. As for hiding a good bow, it's more about a good bow. A good bow is a good bow. Of course, we have to hide and maintain a good bow so that it doesn't lose its combat power. It's not that we don't want to use it, but it's so that we can kill the birds better the next time. "
Bao'er said, "Uncle said that this must be done, but it's also a matter of method. For example, if we hide a good bow, what if we don't take good care of it and it goes moldy? Therefore, at the same time, how could he keep the bow in its best condition? This is what we need to do the most. "
After he finished speaking, everyone present fell silent.
His Majesty stroked his beard, deep in thought. His gaze flickered, but the hidden anger and sharpness on his face had vanished completely.
Qiu Jianhan and Fang Qingtian were also deep in thought.
This was a problem that needed to be considered carefully.
If a soldier slacked off after the war, it would be difficult for him to regain his reputation as a good bow. This would be detrimental to the country and the soldiers themselves.
At this moment, Yun Yang had used the young child's mouth to raise the inevitable sharp question and pointed out a direction that everyone could accept. It was painstaking, meaningful, and tempting.
The problem now was the specific grasp of this established direction. There was no longer the atmosphere that could have been at daggers drawn like before.
Yun Yang sat on the side, maintaining a nonchalant smile. He toasted Ling Xiaozui, clinked glasses with Dugu Chou, drank with Xiao Shaoqing, and winked at Ji Lingxi and Shangguan Lingxiu, trying to act cool.
His Majesty pondered for a moment and said, "Bao'er, did your Uncle Yun say how to hide the good bow when the birds are gone? What should I do exactly? "
Yun Yang was sitting here, but the emperor did not ask him but Bao'er. The meaning behind his question was clear.
Bao'er blinked and said in a wronged tone, "Uncle asked Bao'er to think about the follow-up question myself, but he didn't give an answer. He said that this was homework … Bao 'er had to use this question to write three large sheets of paper, and he had to be satisfied before it was over. "
The Emperor laughed heartily. "Have you finished writing?"
Bao 'er lowered her head and said in shame, "I haven't finished writing yet."
The Emperor asked, "Then how do you plan to write it?"
Bao Er's childish face showed a thoughtful expression. He said, "Based on what Uncle said, this bow, no matter how you take care of it and hide it, with the passage of time, it will inevitably rust and rot. Only by using it often can it be as good as new. Based on this premise, Bao Er thought and thought, thinking about how to hide it and use it without hiding it …"
The Emperor's entire body trembled, and he murmured, "Since it's hidden, can it be used without hiding?"
Bao'er said innocently, "Bao'er thought about it for a long time and still couldn't figure it out. The original intention of hiding it is to not use it, and not using it now is still not using it. Using it without hiding it is already a contradiction … Then Bao'er thought, why don't I just not hide it? A bow isn't only used to shoot birds. Since it's a bow and arrow, other than shooting birds in the sky, it can also shoot tigers, wolves, foxes, rabbits. If it doesn't work, it can also shoot mice, long worms, and so on."
The Emperor's eyes glinted as he murmured, "Hmm, it can also shoot tigers, wolves, mice …"
For a moment, he was lost in thought, speechless.
Qiu Jianhan and Fang Qingtian looked at each other and smiled. Suddenly, they felt a great sense of relief.
Bao'er's words had vaguely hinted at two different solutions. To Bao'er, keeping it and using it without hiding it were polar opposites that could not coexist. However, to the courtiers and politicians, there was a huge room for maneuver. As for shooting tigers, wolves, and all the animals in the world, there was an unimaginable trend of extension. His words hit the nail on the head, and the meaning was profound!
The two important figures could not help chortling in unison. "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
His Majesty shook his head, the smile on his face growing. Suddenly, he guffawed, "Hahahaha …"
The three of them raised their goblets at the same time. His Majesty's voice was very loud. "I'm really very happy today. I must get drunk with my two old brothers. We won't go home until we're drunk!"
Qiu Jianhan and Fang Qingtian said happily, "This official would like to get drunk today as well. We will definitely accompany Your Majesty with our lives and won't go home until we're drunk!"
The three of them downed their goblets.
Then, they began to raise their goblets at a high frequency, their spirits soaring. They were indescribably excited and high-spirited.
The emperor raised his goblet and suddenly said, "Bao 'er, how much of what we've said just now do you really understand?"
Bao 'er blinked and said, "Uncle said that it's fine as long as the hero's heart isn't broken."
The emperor let out a long laugh that could shatter the roof tiles. "Hahahaha … Good, good, good!"
After saying 'good' three times, he suddenly raised his goblet and said loudly, "What a great Young Master Yun Yang! I would like to propose a toast to you today!"
Yun Xiaoyao was relieved and said with a smile, "This bastard only knows how to talk. He's not worthy of your toast. Brother, please don't spoil him."
The emperor shook his head. "No, no, no. I propose this goblet of wine willingly and willingly!"
Yun Yang laughed and raised his goblet. "Thank you, Your Majesty. I shall drink as much as Your Majesty drinks today."
The emperor was even more delighted when he heard that. Without another word, he downed his goblet in one gulp.
Towards the end of the drinking session, not only was His Majesty drunk, Qiu Jianhan and Fang Qingtian were also tipsy. However, the laughter never stopped and the atmosphere was extremely joyous.
Even when he helped the emperor onto the dragon carriage for his return, he was still shouting, "Bring the wine, I'm happy today! I won't stop until I'm drunk, I won't return until I'm drunk … "
It looked like he was really drunk and needed to return!
…
Residence of Yun.
Yun Yang looked at the little fellow with a dark expression. "Who taught you to say these words?"
Bao 'er looked up and said, "Other than the hero not being broken, uncle should not be. Uncle must always be happy, that is what makes Bao' er the happiest!"
Yun Yang looked at Bao 'er in silence and said softly, "Don't show off your intelligence too much. That's what makes a good child."
Obviously, Bao 'er's precociousness had far exceeded Yun Yang's expectations. Yun Yang could already foresee that if Bao' er remained like this, perhaps he would have to hand over his title of Supreme Wit to him in the future!
Bao 'er nodded vigorously. "Bao' er remembers every word uncle says seriously. I dare not forget it!"
He raised his head and said softly, "But uncle will leave Bao 'er sooner or later, won't he?" He lowered his head and said, "Bao' er can't bear to leave uncle …"
Yun Yang was silent for a moment and patted Bao 'er's head. He wanted to say something but did not say anything in the end.
These days, Yun Yang had been keeping Li Yingqiu and the others under strict control. Whoever came into contact with Bao 'er and what they said were under his surveillance at every moment.
It could be said that there were no blind spots.
There was indeed no one to teach him.
Then … did Bao 'er think of these words himself?
Thinking of Bao 'er's young face, Yun Yang's gaze froze.
There was joy and sorrow.
…
