; Hearing Shen Junying say this, Shen Junqian understood what she meant, which was nothing more than to let Shen Junwei, who is the best at painting, copy the paintings and show off the copied paintings, and let Shen Junfang, who is the best at embroidering, embroider. Then organize a poetry club based on this painting, or your own sisters or partners in the school, chant poems together, and then select the best poems, and let the sister with the best writing inscribe on the painting copied by Shen Junwei, and Shen Junfang embroidered it together.

"Oh, not half of this is done by the fourth sister, so what should I do" Shen Junqian counted while hooking his fingers, "The handwriting is not as good as the eldest sister; the painting is not as good as the second sister; as for embroidery, I don't like it very much like the fifth sister, and I haven't learned how to needlework, what can I do?"

Hearing Shen Junqian say this, Shen Junluo also nodded on the side and said, "Me too, you all know, I'm not very good at these, I'm better at horseback archery than these." ”

Shen Junying thought for a while, "How can it be okay, you can help your second sister sharpen ink, or help your fourth sister pick embroidery threads, or when we have a poetry meeting, you can go and prepare food, anyway, it is for the eldest sister, the eldest sister knows your heart, and she will definitely not blame you." Don't you say, big sister?"

"My sisters have hearts, and I'm already very happy, but if I still have this thought, I'm afraid that the Bodhisattva won't spare me. Shen Junxuan immediately said with a smile, and comforted Shen Junluo and Shen Junqian again, "The two younger sisters are happy to have fun together, it is the blessing of the elder sister, and they will go out separately in the future, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to have such an opportunity." ”

Talking for a while, thinking that he was going to get married after he was married, and now the days at home are getting less and less, and he is a little sentimental.

Seeing that his words also attracted Shen Junxuan's sentimentality, Shen Junqian quickly changed the topic, "Okay, you come to the poetry meeting, I'll prepare food for you, and I promise that you will be satisfied by then." ”

"Yes, my grandmother said that your mouth is the most picky and the best at eating in our family. Shen Junying pinched Shen Junqian's face and said with a smile.

was interrupted by her sister, Shen Junxuan also cleaned up her mood, and began to think about the poetry club, "By the way, I haven't seen Cousin Xu for the past few days, so please invite her over when the time comes."

Shen Junluo stretched out her hand and pointed to the sisters and said in a half-circle, "Yes, I heard that she is famous at home, maybe she will write a poem to overwhelm you when the time comes, but speaking of which, I don't seem to have seen her for a few days, well, Xu followed my aunt out to listen to my grandmother, this time my aunt seems to have something else to do besides seeing the third uncle." ”

"That's it, my aunt is my cousin's aunt, and I should go out with my aunt, and when the time comes, let someone ask her if she has time. "Shen Junying is actually not very familiar with Xu Yaqin, so she doesn't care very much about whether she can come, but it's always difficult for relatives who live at home to ignore her.

Shen Junwei was recognized by her sisters as the best at painting, although there was nothing on her face, she was very happy in her heart, and she was not so reluctant to this activity, even this was the matter proposed by Shen Junying, and she put forward her own opinion with great interest, "Since we gave it to the eldest sister together, I don't think it is as good as this, whether it is a word or a poem, in the end, the eldest sister will be the referee to judge whose poem is used and who writes it." ”

Shen Junluo had already clapped her hands on the side and praised, "This is a good idea, since it is for a big sister, it is natural to like the big sister, that's right, it's decided." ”

Others didn't have any opinions on this, and they decided to make Shen Junxuan the final finalizer at the moment.

Shen Junqian thought of a question, a few of them still have to go to the Cangwu Women's Hospital, "When are the second sisters going to come over, except for the eldest sister tomorrow, don't we all have to go to the women's hospital, isn't there no time?"

Shen Junying said nonchalantly, "Junwei and I are almost twelve years old now, and we have learned everything that should be learned in the women's college, and now the masters don't care too much about us, as long as we talk to the masters, it doesn't matter if we stay at home and don't go." Just start tomorrow Junwei and I will ask for leave with our master, Junwei will start copying directly, my eldest sister and I will go to prepare the rules and regulations and write posts, your next Xiumu day will be our first meeting, so it's good."

The Cangwu Women's Academy was originally a family study in the inner courtyard of the Shen family, and because of the Cangwu Academy and the strong lineup of masters, there were more people who came to admire it. However, Cangwu Women's Academy also has certain student requirements, first of all, the age is eight to twelve years old, and once the age is over thirteen, except for a few special female students who also apply to stay in the college, no one else will come to the college.

Shen Junwei and Shen Junying are both in the same year, and they are twelve today, so the master of the academy encourages this kind of people who are ready to graduate to go home, and this kind of female student has the highest degree of freedom in the academy. You only need to say hello to the person in charge of the academy in advance, and the masters will not care.

Shen Junwei was not very willing to come back from the academy in advance, but she didn't want to say that she had to go against Shen Junying, so she hesitated and said: "I don't think it's as good as this, I don't need to come to this preparation, I still go to the academy normally during the day, the painting of the sixth sister will be lent to me first, and I will take time to copy it every night, so as to ensure that it will be copied next time when you form a poetry meeting." ”

Shen Junying didn't care, Shen Junxuan thought about it and asked Shen Junqian first, "What does the sixth sister think?"

"I don't have an opinion, the second sister can take the painting back today. ”

Shen Junfang has always been half invisible among the sisters, only listening carefully on the side, rarely expressing her opinions, and generally not taking the initiative to come forward unless she is asked.

Shen Junluo looked at the painting with some eyes, well, she also wanted to take it back and put it in the study.

"Second sister, when you copy, can you copy one more and give it to me. I didn't really like calligraphy and painting, but this painting and my appetite, but I was embarrassed to ask for this picture of my sixth sister, so I had to ask my second sister to give me one. ”

"It's not a difficult task, I'll give you one more copy when the time comes. ”

The sisters discussed it for a while, and then they made up their minds about these things, and each began to prepare.

Originally, Shen Jizhong's brothers discussed a few times, and the results of the imperial examination fraud case would probably come out in the next few days, but they never thought that on the second day, the saint directly issued an order to settle the case. All the candidates who were found to have committed fraud and the examiners involved in the fraud were imprisoned, and the first few were exiled, and the other students were not guilty. And half a month later, this year's exam will be reopened, and the examiner is sure to be Mr. Lishan.

When he went to the next court, Shen Jizhong gave Shen Jitang a look of "go back and talk" because he still had to go to the cabinet to discuss matters.

Shen Jitang went back to the Shen family without saying a word, and told Feng and the others the good news first. Shen Ji'an was innocent, and he could still take the exam in half a month, and then he and Shen Ji'an went to the study first.

"Why is the case decided so quickly this time, I thought I would have to wait a few more days" Before closing the door of the study, Shen Ji'an couldn't wait to ask the question.

Shen Jitang motioned for Shen Ji'an to sit casually, and said while sitting, "I don't know very well, when I went to the court today, the Holy Lord directly issued a decree, and I don't think most of the court members knew about it. I'll wait for the eldest brother to come back and ask if there's any news from the cabinet."

Shen Ji'an turned around and threw off his clothes and sat casually on a chair beside him, "It's hard to say, we only speculated yesterday that the case would be closed in the next few days, at least yesterday the eldest brother must not know about it, if there is news in the cabinet, how can the eldest brother not know"

"You don't understand this, the cabinet has six phases, and the eldest brother has only been in the cabinet for a few years, if the cabinet is sorted, the eldest brother is at the bottom. Although in fact, the six phases have a relationship between the top and bottom of the cabinet, but in fact, the cabinet has always been known as the first auxiliary and the second assistant, and even the saint chose to acquiesce to the name of this first auxiliary and second assistant. What the Cabinet knows, the first assistant and the second assistant must know, and what the first assistant and the second assistant know, the Cabinet may not know. ”

"The second brother is right. Shen Jizhong just came in and heard Shen Jitang's words, and he agreed.

Shen Jitang and Shen Ji'an stood up to greet him, Shen Ji'an raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why did the eldest brother come back so quickly today?"

Since Shen Jizhong entered the cabinet, Shen Jizhong had to stay almost every time he went down to the court, and he and the saint participated in state affairs in the upper study before leaving.

"The cabinet quarreled today. ”

Shen Jizhong's words immediately attracted the surprised eyes of Shen Jitang and Shen Ji'an, and explained, "The first assistant and the second assistant have made a fuss, and the matter of this fraud case seems to have been decided by the first assistant and the saint, and even the second assistant doesn't know about it. After the next court, they quarreled, but the saint did not appear, only let the eunuch of the general pass the message, saying that he was unwell today, and the cabinet meeting would not be held for the time being. ”

Shen Jitang thought for a moment and asked, "Then what does your cabinet probably mean now?"

Shen Jizhong shook his head, "The first assistant and the second assistant have quarreled, and the others can't even persuade them, but the cabinet doesn't have the first assistant and the second assistant to preside, so the rest of us can only keep a low profile and do our own thing." ”

"Then I don't know if the teacher is the chief examiner this time, but there is any disadvantage" This year's examination is also a continuous situation, and several examiners have been changed before, but I didn't expect it to lead to fraud. Now that Mr. Lishan has been appointed as the chief examiner for the reexamination, he doesn't know what he will meet, and Shen Jitang has to worry.

"Second brother, if you care, it's a mess, just came out of such a mess, who else dares to make trouble this time to try to retake the exam, I'm afraid that the first one of the saints will not let him go. ”

Shen Jitang thought about it, so he put the matter aside for the time being, and instead asked about Shen Ji'an's reexamination
