The Laughing Usa of the Red Chamber

On the day when the rankings were released, it began to rain lightly, and the sky was gray, and the figures in the distance were not clear.

"It's been sunny for a long time, but I fell down today." Su Mingyin curled her lips and closed the carved window covered with Ming cloth.

He did not take part in this session of the imperial examination, because of the hectic preparations in the academy, he asked for leave for the past few days and stayed at home, but today he came to Wutong Academy early in the morning.

Sitting in front of the mirror, Shen Yulin let Jinxiu tie his hair, turned his head slightly and said, "What are you doing so early? If the ranking is higher, I'm afraid the reporter will arrive in the evening."

Su Mingyin smiled and said, "Aren't I in a hurry to see Hui Yuanlang?"

Shen Yulin raised his brows lightly, and asked curiously, "Did the Taifu say it himself?"

Su Mingyin blinked her deer eyes, and said with a smile: "Naturally, it is said that for this, Chen Tong and Zheng Shangshu quarreled...You know Yuanlang, but you are hand-picked by the Holy One!"

With her hair tied up, Shen Yulin took a white jade auspicious cloud hairpin and fixed it, turned around and said to Su Mingyin: "The person Xiang Chen wants to raise is Tang Yingze?"

Su Mingyin said: "You know him?"

It seems so, Shen Yulin nodded slightly.

Su Mingyin said again: "Father originally cherished this talent very much, but when he saw someone that day, he felt that he was frivolous and he was very displeased."

"I looked at it from a distance that day, and I also felt that this person... well, it seemed to be a little..."

Su Mingyin didn't know how to describe it, but Shen Yulin said with a smile: "What do you want to say is cynical?"

Su Mingyin clapped her palms and said with a smile: "Exactly! I'm surprised, but I don't know how he, the son of a county magistrate, can be so reckless and frivolous that even princes and grandchildren can't match."

He is Ji Tianyang's only son, and he is a legitimate prince on that island. These princes and grandchildren who are cautious and self-restraining are naturally incomparable.

Shen Yulin sighed softly and said no more.

Breakfast has been set up outside, because he is afraid that he will consume too much energy and damage his vitality, these days Shen Xiang ordered the cooks to cook some nourishing medicinal meals, which smelled like medicinal herbs on his body.

After cleaning his hands, Shen Yulin saw a plate of three delicacies steamed buns, a bowl of Wensi tofu soup and some pastries on the table, he couldn't help smiling, it was a rare day today.

Su Mingyin came in a hurry and didn't have breakfast, so she smiled at Jinxiu: "Give me a portion too."

Shen Yulin said: "And I changed it to the steamed buns filled with meat."

Su Mingyin curled her lips and said: "My body recovered a month ago, why can't I touch these things?"

Even though he said that, he didn't object. Su Mingyin's cheeks puffed up. For some reason, when she faced Shen Yulin, she always felt that she was a few generations shorter.

After breakfast, someone from the Taifu's mansion sent Su Mingyin back, thinking that the weather is cold today, so the Eldest Princess is not at ease.

After sending Su Mingyin away, Shen Yulin had nothing else to do, so he called Feng Shaoqin to help with his homework.

Feng Shaoqin has been worrying these days, and when he saw Shen Yulin, he was not as close as he used to be.

Shen Yulin wondered: "Shaoqin is not used to getting along with the prince?"

Perhaps he took it for granted, no matter how smart Shaoqin was, he was only a nine-year-old child, and it would be a disadvantage to put him and Ji Yuanyi together.

Feng Shaoqin nodded, "Senior Junior Brother..."

"What's wrong with this son?" A boy's voice gnashing his teeth sounded from behind the outer curtain.

Jinxiu opened the curtain, only to see a boy with a pale complexion slowly enter with the support of two servants.

Feng Shaoqin sighed, and blamed himself sincerely: "I'm the senior brother, isn't it? Shizi junior brother is delicate and fleshy, how can you ask him to use those country things together? Alas, he made Shizi senior brother eat these Bitter, brother I really feel sorry..."

Shen Yulin raised her eyebrows.

Ji Yuan also smiled suddenly, and said: "How can you blame senior brother? It's obviously me, myself, looking for..."

Feng Shaoqin felt a chill behind him, turned his head to look, but Ji Yuanyi returned him with a bright smile.

Feng Shaoqin sighed: "Senior brother Shizi is too polite."

Ji Yuan also snorted coldly and turned his head away.

Shen Yulin and Ji Yuan also only had a few encounters, because of his history, he always felt that he was unfathomable, now seeing him with such a childish manner, it is a bit funny.

"Shaoqin, since the son has entered the sect of the master, he is also your junior brother. Why are you called so strangely?"

Feng Shaoqin responded, raised his phoenix eyes, and gave Ji Yuanyi a triumphant look.

However, Ji Yuanyi smiled at Shen Yulin: "What Master said is very true, senior brother does not need to be polite with Yuan Yi, but Yuan Yi has little knowledge, I wonder if I can ask senior brother for some lessons in the near future?"

Feng Shaoqin's cheeks flushed, although he is talented, but his study time is still short, he only learned the urgent chapters first, and just learned some words.

Shen Yulin laughed and said: "Confucius once said that he taught students according to their aptitude, and Shaoqin's homework is different from that of the eldest son."

As he spoke, he ordered Jinxiu to remove a set of heavy books from the shelf, and Ji Yuan asked the servants behind him to greet him, and after a closer look, it was a set of "Warring States Policy".

☆☆☆☆☆.

Now that he has obtained the letter of approval, Shen Yulin is not in a hurry, after lunch, seeing that the rain stopped, Fang sent Jinxiu and a few servants to watch the list.

Historically, the imperial examinations have been happy for some and sad for others. Those who are on the list are overjoyed, but more people fail.

Shen Yulin took a nap in the afternoon, and when he woke up, he received the good news.

Hearing the congratulatory sounds from all around, Shen Yulin suddenly remembered that it seemed to be raining like this when the rankings were released in the previous life.

......

"It's just a Huiyuan, and he is so proud!"

......

"Hmph... so what if he is the number one scholar in Jinke, I want him to be mediocre all his life, and he won't be able to make any money again..."

......

"Master, the fourth young master has not achieved his ambition yet, so he has become so rampant...In the future...you can teach us orphans and widows how to live..."

......

"He dares! As long as my master and I are alive for a day, he will never get promoted!"

......

"A son does not surpass his father. The old minister thinks that Shen Huiyuan should nod his name."

......

"Lin Ge's old saying is justified, but Qing's tolerance is justified."

......

Shen Yulin closed his eyes, and suddenly smiled mockingly.

After dismissing the announcer, Shen Xiang patted Shen Yulin on the shoulder in great relief, and said: "Now Yulin has won five yuan in a row, and there has been no one in the six poems for the entrance examination. Presumably, the Holy One will not be too demanding. Three days later, the palace examination will be held. Don't be too nervous."

Shen Yulin's eyes were dark, but he smiled in his heart, if he hadn't inserted the bar diagonally, the first champion of the six poems in ancient and modern times would be that "Tang Yingze".

He didn't want to get involved with such a person. For him, the unknown represented danger.

He had never thought of fighting for his life, and being suspected afterwards was a trivial matter, and if he lost his life inadvertently, it would be too unworthy.

However, this does not prevent him from using this matter to seek the greatest benefit.

☆☆☆☆☆.

"Hey, I think back then when my son ended up..."

Wei Ruolan said lightly: "I was two sticks of incense late, and I was kicked out of the Gongyuan."

Feng Ziying's expression froze, and she waved back a pair of sweet and cute little maids, and said helplessly: "Master Wei, if you don't dismantle the villain's platform for a day, can you suffocate to death?"

Wei Ruolan snorted, "You really don't make it up."

Feng Ziying pursed her lips, poured a cup of tea to moisten her throat, and said: "Don't you think they can't tell that I'm talking nonsense, but they are just holding me for fun, but you are not interesting."

Wei Ruolan said: "You are still annoyed by saying that you are a fool of Feng, and you have to get so close to make fun of you?"

Feng Ziying curled her lips and said, "I heard that Jia Fenghuang's eggs donated to the prison students this year, so I don't know how they did in the exam."

Wei Ruolan knew what happened back then, and her feelings for Jia Baoyu were quite subtle, so she just wrote lightly: "I passed out in the examination room on the first day, and was sent back by the imperial guards in Jiaojing."

Feng Ziying didn't have any scruples, she laughed and said, "The Jia family's phoenix eggs are going to show off again this time!"

Wei Ruolan frowned, but said nothing.

Feng Ziying said again: "This time the school is taking the exam on the art of war and strategy, and his stomach that only knows romance...Hmph, it makes sense."

Wei Ruolan didn't want to mention Jia Baoyu, and was about to say something, but she heard Feng Ziying say: "You don't know anything about the backyard, and there are many things you don't know, so the Jia family is like a clay pot now, no matter who Not even a little bit."

"My aunt heard from the palace that the second lady of the Jia family, that is, the Jia family who became the concubine of the third prince, pretended to be pregnant and secretly found a baby boy in order to confuse the royal blood. She was exposed on the spot, but Did she bite out her old mother, the Holy One was furious, or did Jia Lao Fengjun ask for the gold medal for avoiding death that the former emperor gave to Dai Shangong, and suppressed this matter!"

Feng Ziying's aunt was the only concubine in the palace, she was very favored but had no children. Later, when she got older, she knew that there was no hope for children, so she devoted herself to planning for the family, and the news that came back was always accurate.

Wei Ruolan was dumbfounded, "This...how is this possible!"

Is the Jia family crazy to confuse the royal blood?

"Huh... the third prince's breath is not good, if the son... such a big benefit is in front of him, will the lady Wang not bite?" Feng Ziying snorted coldly, but she thought it was okay My younger sister belonged to Mingli, so she was not coaxed away by Jia's sweet talk.

The historians, the Wang family, and the Xue family, I'm afraid this time they will sit in the heart of the Holy One.

Wei Ruolan came to her senses and let out a long sigh, but she didn't know who it was for.

Feng Ziying said: "I'm a dawdle, and I don't want to care about these court disputes. I've told you so much, but I just want to tell you that these aristocratic families look at the scenery, but they don't know how dirty they are inside. Don't touch it if you can. .”

Wei Ruolan nodded, since he could remember, he had been separated from the house with his father, so he was not familiar with these facts.

only......

"How do you know so clearly?"

It's not that he looks down on Feng Ziying, but that these words are really not something a person who is tricked by his wife and concubines can say.

Feng Ziying's inscrutable expression froze.

Facing Wei Ruolan's clear eyes, feeling guilty, she curled her lips helplessly, turned her head and said, "Okay, my mother said it."

Wei Ruolan couldn't help laughing.
