Li Xuan didn't dare to ask Li Yi the reason why the stone fell to the ground. Just now, when he insisted on asking for an answer, Li Yi asked him another question. Was the sun in the morning or at noon closer to people?
Li Xuan thought it was morning because the sun looked as big as a disc in the morning, but at noon, it would be much smaller. Everyone understood this principle.
But when Li Yi threw out the theory that it was cold in the distance and hot in the near, Li Xuan began to feel that his brain wasn't enough.
Today, he had suffered enough blows. He was of noble birth and had received a good education since he was young. Among his teachers, which one of them wasn't a knowledgeable scholar? But today, he discovered that he couldn't even compare to a little servant girl.
If Li Yi threw a few more questions at him, Li Xuan felt that he would go crazy.
"I know. The speed at which an object falls has nothing to do with its weight. If a heavy object and a light object fall from the same height, they must fall at the same time." Unsure of the reason, Li Xuan decided to force himself to remember.
"Is it really like this?"
Li Yi glanced at him, picked up a leaf and a stone from the ground, and raised them to the same height again. "Guess, between the leaf and the stone, which will fall first?"
When the guards beside Li Xuan saw this, they looked at each other and saw a trace of inexplicability in each other's eyes.
Was there a need to guess? It must be the stone falling first. The little prince wasn't stupid. How could he not even guess this kind of question?
In fact, Li Xuan's first feeling was that the stone would fall first. But before he said it, he began to hesitate again.
After experiencing a lot of blows, he would no longer rely on his own ideas and assumptions. Seeing is believing. Before this, didn't he also think that the big stone would fall first?
What's more, how could Li Yi ask him such a simple question?
Obviously, Li Yi, who had become the smartest person in his heart, wouldn't ask such a stupid question.
"Don't try to deceive me a second time. The leaf and the stone will fall at the same time!"
Li Xuan had a proud look on his face as he said with absolute certainty.
The guards staggered at the same time and looked at each other again. This time, their eyes were filled with disbelief.
Why didn't he realize in the past that the young prince was really stupid!
Li Yi was a little hesitant. Why don't I not attack this poor child?
Today, his worldview had been tossed and turned several times. Would he be able to endure another round of torment?
If he let go, Li Xuan, who saw the result, would not be able to bear the blow and go crazy. Ning Wang would definitely not let him go. He would most likely immediately take Xiao Huan, Ru Yi and the others and run away.
"Haha, why don't you dare to let go? Did I get it right?" Seeing the hesitation on Li Yi's face, Li Xuan laughed and snatched the leaves and stones from his hands, saying, "I'll do it myself."
Li Xuan had a confident look on his face. The next moment, he let go.
Dong!
The stones fell to the ground and made a dull sound.
The leaves fell slowly, making a few ripples in the air and fell silently at the feet of Li Xuan.
Li Xuan's face was pale and his legs softened. If it weren't for the guards next to him who saw that the situation was not good and held him up, he would have collapsed on the ground.
"Young prince, what's wrong?"
The guards' faces were even paler than his. They even forgot that Li Xuan had warned them not to call him young prince when they were outside.
If something were to happen to the young prince, they would be held responsible.
"Let go of me."
Li Xuan broke free from the hands of the guards and stared blankly at the leaves at his feet. The expression on his face also became dull.
At this moment, he felt that the world he had lived in for more than ten years suddenly became extremely strange.
When he turned to look at Li Yi, there seemed to be a cloud of fog in front of him. It was hazy and he couldn't see clearly no matter how hard he tried …
Li Yi was about to speak, but Li Xuan immediately covered his ears.
"I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen …" The dignified Crown Prince Ning fled in fear when Li Yi opened his mouth.
…
When Li Xuan arrived, he had a smile on his face, but when he left, his face was filled with worry, as if he had a lot on his mind. Fortunately, his mental fortitude was much stronger than Li Yi had expected. He did not break down, and he did not need the guards to support him as he walked. This caused Li Yi to have a higher opinion of him.
Honestly speaking, if he were him, he would probably start to doubt the world and everything around him. It was already very fortunate that he didn't become a lunatic.
Today's negotiation was very successful. The outdoor barbecue was also very successful. Young people shouldn't stay at home all day. They should go out more. After eating, drinking, and playing, they could lie on the rocking chair in the courtyard, bask in the sun, and hum songs. Their lives were very pleasant.
Li Yi, who was basking in the sun, suddenly felt that something was wrong. He opened his eyes and saw an old face with crisscrossed wrinkles. The old man revealed an interested expression and looked at … the rocking chair he was sitting on.
"Second Great Uncle!"
Li Yi was almost scared to death by this old face at such a close distance. He immediately jumped up from the chair, his heart still beating non-stop.
"Hey, little boy, your chair is not bad. Where did you buy it?" Second Great Uncle of the Liu family, the most prestigious old man in the village, looked at Li Yi and asked with a smile.
This old man doesn't even make a sound when he walks. Li Yi felt depressed. He calmed his beating heart and said, "I made it at Uncle Han's place. Why? Do you like it too, Second Great Uncle?"
Uncle Han was a lonely old man in the village. He originally had a son, but he later died of illness. Ruyi often asked Xiao Huan to deliver some rice and noodles to the old man. Sometimes, when Xiao Huan was busy with other things, it would be Li Yi's turn to deliver it. After a while, they became familiar with each other.
When the old man was young, he knew some carpentry skills. If anyone's furniture in the village broke down, he would often repair it for free. Last time, when the chair at home broke down, Li Yi was too lazy to repair it, so he simply redesigned this kind of rocking chair and asked Uncle Han to make one for him. He could lie down and sit on it, and it was much more comfortable than the small broken chair he used to have.
"Tsk tsk … I didn't expect that Han brat to have such skills." Second Great Uncle put his hands behind his back and looked at the chair with interest. Just now, he saw Ruyi lying on it, and it seemed to be very comfortable. It was the perfect chair to bask in the sun. Speaking of which, it seemed like it was time to change the chair at home.
"If Second Great Uncle likes it …" Respecting the old and loving the young was a traditional virtue. Seeing that the old man seemed to be interested in the chair, Li Yi waved his hand generously. "If Second Great Uncle likes it, I can ask Uncle Han to make another one for you."
Second Great Uncle's expression froze for a moment, then he showed a satisfied expression and said, "Good, good boy. Since you insist on giving it to me, I will reluctantly accept it."
While Li Yi was stunned, Second Great Uncle patted his shoulder lightly, picked up the rocking chair beside him, and turned to walk out the door.
When Li Yi came back to his senses, he saw that Second Great Uncle was already at the door. He hurriedly shouted, "Second Great Uncle, wait …"
"There's no need. I've already eaten …"
The old man's voice sounded, and in the next moment, he disappeared with the rocking chair in front of Li Yi's eyes.
"This old man's hand strength is pretty good …" Seeing the old man easily pick up the huge rocking chair with one hand and disappear in an instant, Li Yi was stunned.
He couldn't even lift the chair with one hand.
The old man had been single for decades, and the effect was obvious …
