Happy Little Scholar

Li Xuan didn't dare to ask Li Yi about the source of the stone falling to the ground. Just now, when he insisted on asking for an answer, Li Yi asked him another question, whether the morning sun or the noon sun is closer to people. Tianlai 『 Novel

Li Xuan thought it was the morning, because the sun looked as big as a disk in the morning, and it would be much smaller at noon. Everyone knows that things are small when far away and big when near.

But when Li Yi put forward the theory that things are cold when far away and hot when near, Li Xuan began to feel that his brain was not enough.

He had suffered enough blows today. He was born in a noble family and received a good education since childhood. Which of his teachers was not a knowledgeable scholar? But today, he found that he was not even as good as a little maid.

If Li Yi threw him a few more questions, Li Xuan felt that he would go crazy.

"I know, the speed of an object falling has nothing to do with its weight. Heavy objects and light objects falling from the same height must fall to the ground at the same time." Not knowing the reason, Li Xuan decided to force himself to remember.

"Is that true?"

Li Yi glanced at him, picked up a leaf and a stone from the ground, and raised them to the same height again: "Guess, which one of the leaf and the stone fell to the ground first?"

The guards following Li Xuan looked at each other and saw a hint of confusion in each other's eyes.

Is there any need to guess? The stone must have fallen to the ground first. The little prince is not stupid. How could he not guess such a question?

In fact, Li Xuan's first feeling was that the stone fell to the ground first, but he began to hesitate before he said it.

After many blows, he no longer relied on his own subjective assumptions. Seeing is believing. Before this, didn't he think that the big stone fell to the ground first?

What's more, how could Li Yi ask him such a simple question?

Obviously, Li Yi, who has become the smartest man in his heart, is impossible to ask such a stupid question.

"Don't try to fool me a second time. The leaf and the stone must have fallen to the ground at the same time!"

Li Xuan said proudly and confidently.

Several guards of the palace stumbled at the same time and looked at each other again. This time, there was a deep disbelief in their eyes.

Why didn't I realize it before? The little prince is really stupid!

Li Yi hesitated. Otherwise, he should not hit this poor child?

His worldview has been turned over and over several times today. Can he withstand another tossing?

If he lets go, Li Xuan will not be able to bear the blow and go crazy after seeing the result. King Ning will definitely not let him go. I'm afraid he will run away with Xiaohuan and Ruyi soon.

"Haha, why don't you dare to let go? I was right, right?" Seeing the hesitation on Li Yi's face, Li Xuan laughed, snatched the leaves and stones from his hands, and said, "I'll do it myself."

Li Xuan showed a confident expression on his face, and the next moment, he let go.

Dong!

The stone fell to the ground with a dull sound.

The leaves slowly fell, making a few circles in the air, and landed silently at Li Xuan's feet.

Li Xuan's face was pale, and his steps softened. If the guards beside him hadn't seen the bad situation and supported him, he would have collapsed on the ground at this moment.

"Little Prince, what's wrong with you?"

The faces of several guards were paler than his, and they even forgot that Li Xuan had told them not to call him Little Prince outside.

If something happened to the Little Prince, they would be guilty.

"Let me go."

Li Xuan broke free from the hands of several guards, staring blankly at the fallen leaves at his feet, and the expression on his face became dull.

At this moment, he felt that the world he had lived in for more than ten years suddenly became extremely unfamiliar.

When he turned his head to look at Li Yi, it seemed as if a cloud of fog appeared in front of him, hazy, and he couldn't see clearly...

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 Prince of Ning was frightened and fled by Li Yi's opening his mouth.

…………

Li Xuan had a smile on his face when he came, but he was worried when he left. Fortunately, his psychological endurance was much stronger than Li Yi expected. He didn't collapse emotionally, and he didn't let the guards support him when he walked, which made Li Yi think more highly of him.

To be honest, if he were him, he would probably have begun to doubt the world and everything around him. It would be a blessing not to become a madman.

Today's negotiations were very successful, and the outdoor barbecue was also very successful. Young people can't stay at home all day. They should go out more, eat and drink enough, play enough, lie on the rocking chair in the yard, bask in the sun and hum songs, and live a very comfortable life.

Li Yi, who was basking in the sun, suddenly felt that something was wrong. He opened his eyes suddenly and saw an old face with wrinkles crisscrossing, showing an interested expression, looking at him... the rocking chair under him.

"Second uncle!"

Almost frightened to death by the old face at such close range, Li Yi jumped up from the chair, his heart still beating.

"Hey, kid, your chair is nice, where did you buy it?" Second uncle of Liu, the most prestigious old man in the village, looked at Li Yi and asked with a smile.

This old man walks without making any sound. Li Yi was depressed. He calmed his pounding heart and said, "I made it at Han Bo's place. How about it? Does Second Uncle like it?"

Han Bo was an old widow in the village. He had a son, but he died of illness. Liu Ruyi often asked Xiao Huan to deliver rice and flour to the old man. Sometimes Xiao Huan was busy with other things, so Li Yi was the one to deliver. After a while, they became familiar with each other.

When the old man was young, he had some carpentry skills. If someone's furniture in the village was broken, he would often repair it for free. Last time, the chair at home was broken, and Li Yi was too lazy to repair it, so he simply redesigned this rocking chair and asked Han Bo to help make one. It sways when you lie on it. You can lie down and sit. It is much more comfortable than the old broken chair.

"Tsk tsk..., Han boy has this skill." Second Uncle put his hands behind his back and looked at this chair he had never seen before with interest. Just now, I saw Ruyi lying on it, swaying and looking quite comfortable, just right for sunbathing. Speaking of which, it seems that the chair at home should be changed.

"If Second Uncle likes it..." Respecting the elderly and loving the young is a traditional virtue. Seeing that the old man seemed to be interested in the chair, Li Yi waved his hand generously, "If Second Uncle likes it, let Han Bo make another one for you."

The expression on Second Uncle's face was stunned, and then he showed satisfaction and said, "Okay, good boy, since you insist on giving it to me, I will accept it reluctantly."

In Li Yi's stunned face, Second Uncle patted his shoulder gently, picked up the rocking chair beside him, and turned to walk out the door.

After Li Yi came to his senses, he saw that he had already walked to the door, and hurriedly shouted: "Second Uncle, stay..."

"No, I have already eaten..."

The old man's voice came, and the next moment, he disappeared from Li Yi's sight with the chair.

"This old man has great strength..." Li Yi looked dazed as he watched the old man easily lift up the huge recliner with one hand and his figure disappeared in an instant.

This chair, he couldn't even lift it with one hand.

The old man has been single for decades, and the effect is obvious...
