Are you stupid?

The Shen family was also famous for a time, and there were many talented people in the family. The most famous Yiyang Academy in the previous dynasty belonged to the Shen family.

The dynasties changed, and the old man of the Shen family was the son of a princess when he was alive, and he refused to surrender to the new dynasty.

The old man of the Shen family made such a fuss and passed away with a strong character, but the Shen family fell into huge trouble.

Because of their special background, the students of Yiyang Academy will inevitably be excluded during the exams.Nowadays, half of being an official depends on recommendation, and the other half works hard to take the examination room by oneself.The students who came out of Yiyang Academy naturally did not have the former opportunity, but they managed to pass the exam. When it came time to check their backgrounds, the chief officials just saw the word "Yiyang Academy" and brushed them off.

Merchants and merchants are not qualified to study and take exams, and wealthy households with land may not be able to afford a scholar with all their efforts.

More than ten years after the founding of the Great Zhou, when everyone discovered that there was no student in Yiyang Academy who could become an official in the court, Yiyang Academy fell apart.

The entire Shen family are scholars. Yiyang County has more than a hundred acres of fertile land. There is no shortage of food and clothing, but the family is kind and can't bear to see the students who are delayed by their old master's refusal to surrender. Well, even a lot of land was given away for the disciple to marry a wife.When he came to his senses, the Zhou family was already unable to make ends meet and couldn't even survive.

When Dian Ji traveled around the world when he was young, he once lived temporarily in Yiyang Academy, and received guidance from Mr. Shen, who was a good teacher to him.

Classics discovered the plight of the Shen family seven years ago when they revisited their hometown with his wife, Princess Anping, and his disciple Mu Huaiyuan.He simply persuaded Shen Gu, the current head of the Shen family.Under Shen Gu's arrangement, he continued to keep his oath to his father and stayed in Yiyang County. The other children of the Shen family were recommended by the classics to be counselors and subordinates of many officials, which also found a way for them to survive.

The few remaining descendants surnamed Shen went to Beijing with the classics, and lived in the second small courtyard under the name of Princess Anping to study quietly, only to be recommended by the classics to become officials in the future.

Shen Yu admired her great-grandfather's persistence, and also understood that his grandfather, for the sake of the family's flexibility, used to live in poverty and was not ashamed of eating coarse grains and wearing old clothes. Thinking of a big pie falling from the sky today and hitting him hard on the head.

Shen Yu was blinded by the pie, followed by panic that almost overwhelmed him.

Although the Shen family is in decline, but the talents and learning are there, and there are many children who serve as deputy second officials. In fact, they have heard about the foolishness of the second prince in the palace.

Knowing that after entering the palace, her life's honor and disgrace will be tied to an idiot, Shen Yu is really upset.But he couldn't help but sympathize with the second prince who was pushed to a high position as an idiot and had to bear the wind and rain.Therefore, since entering the palace by car, he has been in a daze and can't slow down.

At night, after a hearty meal that he had never eaten before, Shen Yu finally woke up from his daze.

He realized that from the moment he boarded the carriage sent by the palace, there was no way out.

Shen Yu's mood is very complicated, but the most prominent among a series of complicated emotions is always nervousness.When he saw Mu Huaiyuan standing opposite the second prince in the bedroom of the second prince, this tension reached its peak, and immediately, the tension turned into a strong sense of frustration.

Both he and Mu Huaiyuan were existences that made the court of the Great Zhou lose face. Even Mu Huaiyuan's father tried to shoot and kill the current emperor, and his identity was even more subtle.

But why is Mu Huaiyuan standing in the resplendent and resplendent palace so naturally, talking and laughing freely even when he is careful about breathing?

Is he so much worse than him?

Shen Yu was not jealous, but he wanted to find out the reason. After everyone returned to the room, he couldn't help sneaking to Mu Huaiyuan's residence and asked him why, but was shocked by Mu Huaiyuan's words, Desperately returned to the room.

Shen Yu sat down on the bed, and covered her face in frustration after a long time.

Mu Huaiyuan is right, he is not as calm as Mu Huaiyuan.Not only was he looking forward to becoming the second prince to restore the glory of the Shen family to him, but more importantly, he was shocked by the power displayed by the royal family from the very beginning, so he was in turmoil.

Shen Yu came to the table, turned on the lights, and silently wrote "Shen's Family Instructions", stripping him of the influence of power.

The six companions lived in two rows of facing houses in front of the dormitory. Each of them shared a spacious suite. The lights in Shen Yu's room were lit up in the middle of the night. Except for Fan Su, who had no dust in his heart, the other four had a sense of belonging. aware.

Mu Huaiyuan guessed the reason, because Shen Yu's mind was not right at the beginning, and he didn't want to persuade him to rest early; Gu Nian saw Shen Yu for the first time when he entered the palace, and he was very strange to him, thinking that Shen Yu was just nervous, and he himself It's not easy to intervene and simply ignore it, thinking that after a while, Shen Yu will be able to sleep peacefully after getting used to it; Zhou Rong and Wei Qian who are hiding together eating snacks are full of surprises.

"A Qian, Shen Yu works harder than you." Zhou Rong took another knuckle-sized snack from Wei Qian's hand and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing and saying.

Wei Qian rolled his eyes, and muttered unhappily, "You can't stop your mouth after eating. Why do you always talk so much nonsense."

"Why is it just nonsense. My grandfather always talks about me, saying that you've been working hard every day, so you can write well at a young age." It's Haishi, and he's still busy writing." Zhou Rong had a look on his face. Envious.

Although he is smart, he can't stand his temper. What he hates the most is sitting in the room and practicing calligraphy and reciting books. He will inevitably feel envious of people with a calm and steady temperament.

Wei Qian snorted coldly, and gave Zhou Rong the last few dim sum he brought from home, "You are such an idiot."

"Ah?" Zhou Rong grinned, and looked at Wei Qian suspiciously.

He grew up with Wei Qian, he always knew that Wei Qian was smarter than himself, and he listened to Jin Wei Qian very much.

Wei Qian lowered his voice and told about Shen Yu's background, and carefully explained: "Didn't your family arrange for a father-in-law who came out of the palace to pick him up? The news I asked was that Prince Consort Dian personally chose a companion for His Highness the Second Highness."

"Although Shen Yu has such a disturbing background, his reputation as a child prodigy is great among the poor families in Beijing. Whoever mentions Shen Yu is full of praise; it's not like you and me, who will be praised by others Afterwards, he said that he only praised me indiscriminately for the face of my family. Since Shen Yu is a child prodigy, would he be so stupid that he has to show that he is diligent and studious when he enters the palace? The second prince is stupid, and he must fall behind in his homework. You You can tell from the words of the maid that this Chengqing Hall is also under the control of Empress Cui. Her son has a group of companions who can help, so Empress Cui must be happy, but she is still so diligent after her stupid son falls asleep. , just to sprinkle salt on Empress Cui's wound. Shen Yu said that he would not use this kind of nonsense. Something must have happened to him, and he wanted to relieve his mood. He couldn't control himself for a while so he practiced calligraphy late at night. .”

"Ah Qian is so smart, he can even guess that he practiced calligraphy because he was in a bad mood."

"Every time I'm annoyed by you, I don't like throwing things to vent my anger, so I go to practice calligraphy." Wei Qian replied casually, and then scratched his face embarrassedly, "Anyway, that's the case. Out of the six of us, Fan Su is the royal family Being a retainer, Gu Nian is in a similar situation to you and me, and they can get along freely. But Mu Huaiyuan and Shen Yu have complicated experiences since they were young. Who knows what kind of temperament they are, so they must be treated with caution. To avoid offending them, Use you as a stepping stone to show yourself."

Zhou Rong was taken aback, "It's not possible, everyone has never met before. Besides, I plan to go to the military, and I can't touch Mu Huaiyuan and Shen Yu."

Wei Qian hates the lesson that iron cannot be made into steel, "Everyone in the court knows that the Fan family is all stupid and bold, and even if they step on him to win, they can't show their skills; Gu Nian has a calm personality and is not easy to be fooled. You have a good family background and a quick temper. Take off, you will be fooled as soon as you use the aggressive method, and you will not attack anyone. You believe me. "

Zhou Rong nodded, remembering Fa Xiao's exhortation.

"Okay, then I'll go back." Wei Qian reminded, "I asked Yinzi to find out that although the Second Highness is useless after a brain injury, his body has always been very strong. Get up early and go to the yard. I Looking at the plum blossom piles in the yard, I guess the Second Highness has the habit of practicing kung fu before breakfast."

After Wei Qian finished speaking, he ran back to the room on tiptoe, washed up and fell asleep quickly.

The sky is about to be bright, and the thin morning light lifts the cover of the night, revealing the true colors of the sky.

Shenlong had a good night's sleep and rarely got up early.

As soon as he sat up, the maids guarding the outside started to move immediately, they wiped their faces, combed their hair, changed their clothes, Shenlong put on a bunt and ran around the yard.

As soon as he went out, Shenlong saw Zhou Rong wielding a familiar Fang Tian painted halberd.He turned a blind eye and ran past Zhou Rong, and the maids following Shenlong spread a scent of fragrance, ignoring Zhou Rong's existence together.

Zhou Rong's movements froze, and he couldn't help squinting at the Second Highness from the corner of his eye. He couldn't help being funny when he found that he was just running around the courtyard with the maid in such a foolish way.With a burst of strength in his hand, he smashed the halberd directly onto his feet.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Shenlong stopped, looked back, and said in a daze, "What's wrong with him?"

The maid who followed Shenlong replied: "Zhou Xiaolang hit his foot with a weapon, I'm afraid he was injured."

"Injury, injury is very dangerous, you will die, hurry up and declare the imperial physician!" Shenlong ran to carry the 120-jin long halberd in a panic.

How could the maid dare to let the Second Highness do it herself, rushed over and raised the halberd with all her hands, and rescued Zhou Rong's feet from underneath.

When Zhou Rong found out that the problem had been solved, he saw the Second Highness, who was as beautiful as a fairy boy, standing alone and wiping tears.

He hopped over on one foot and asked puzzledly: "Your Highness, don't cry, I'm fine, just apply some ointment for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis."

"Be sick and die."

"I'm not sick, just a little injury."

Zhou Rong felt that his answer was perfect, but it made His Royal Highness cry even harder, "The third brother also said that he has a 'slight illness', and the imperial physician almost failed to save him!"

Zhou Rong suddenly no longer had the intention to show up in front of the Second Highness early.

The Second Highness is a real fool, talking to him is exhausting.

"My servant will send Zhou Xiaolang back to recuperate first, Your Highness, please don't be sad." Bauhinia gave Zhou Rong a gouged look, and coaxed Shenlong back into the room. When no one was there, Shenlong also breathed a sigh of relief.

That idiot Zhou Rong must feel that he is very troublesome, and he will not come here again in the future.

The author has something to say:

Zhou Rong/Shenlong: That fool will believe it!
