Chapter 63: It was once called the First Queen's Palace
In the following days, Shen Anqing had been preparing to be a tutor, and in order for Nangong Yichen to really learn, she even took out her study notes that she had collected for many years. During this time, she quit the house she had rented for a long time and returned to the dormitory of the school.
Shen Anqing was about to go to the Crimean Palace to report, and she told SΓΉ Kaoru about it and wanted to ask for her opinion, but the girl actually offered to be a tutor as well.
Really.
She wants to see His Highness!
However, she didn't tell Luo Yu about being a tutor, she was afraid that Luo Yu would not be able to think about it, and she would not even agree to her going.
After washing the clothes, Shen Anqing took Duanmu Xun's hand and went out together, since she became a teacher, she had to dress up well, after all, she was going to the palace to be a tutor. She also has to see Nangong Yichen and the queen often, she doesn't want to leave any bad impression on him.
Formerly known as the First Queen's Palace, the Crimean Palace is one of the most classical and elegant buildings in the country.
Its history goes back centuries, when the queen who ruled the O'Ates Empire wanted to build a grand palace in the capital's district for her own residence. So she brought in the best artisan sculptors in the country and spent decades building this historical pearl.
Although it was a bit of a waste of money and labor, the high-flying queen didn't care at all, and the palace she wanted to build was not just a house, but also a status symbol.
When the palace was about to be built on a certain scale, she brought into the palace all the best things in the country, art and crafts, plundered booty, gold, silver, and countless precious stones, all kinds of strange and priceless treasures.
After a long period of precipitation, the First Queen's Palace lost its original size, but the essence of the interior is still there, hundreds of years ago, after the painful division of the Outes Empire, a legendary rich man named Krim bought the palace, and appointed an architect to renovate it, after his wedding, to his wife, and the building was later named Krimu Palace.
In the early part of the last century, the Nangong family ruled the Outes and took ownership of the Crimean Palace, which later became the residence of members of the royal family, until now.
This place is the most familiar to Shen Anqing, she has come here secretly more than once, and she has also gone in for sightseeing as a tourist, but this time she may have to live here, she is still a little uneasy. She had seen the queen on television, the noble old man, and she didn't know how to talk to her, or how to salute her.
The only etiquette that Shen Anqing knows is curtsy, which is the kind of crossing her right foot behind her left foot, and then slowly bending her knees, and her hands should follow the range of the body to descend and keep the body in line, just like if you want to sit down, she doesn't know if it can come in handy, so she can only worry secretly in her heart.
Kaoru cautiously leaned into her ear, "Don't worry! Quiet is commensurate with any elegant and solemn place, like the dress you are wearing, I think as long as you are quiet enough by the Queen's side." β
Shen Anqing looked at the long skirt not far away. "Well, maybe I won't see the queen at all, after all, she's so busy, and I just need to do my job." β
Kaoru Duanmu nodded and smiled at her.
The next day she rushed to the Crimean Palace to take up her post.
Shen Anqing was wearing an orange dress today, holding three review materials in her arms, in order to show her erudition, she deliberately wore a black-framed glasses, but there was no degree.
The Crimean Palace was still what she saw often, with its black iron railings, lakes, meadows, paths, and the huge carved buildings.
After indicating her intentions, a young blonde female steward led Shen Anqing through the gate where the guards were stationed, and then she stopped in her office and carefully read the information that Shen Anqing handed her.
The woman looked at Shen Anqing carefully and frowned: "Student, come to apply too! If you just want to tempt Prince Yichen with your beauty, I advise you to go back! Although you look okay." β
"I come to teach with sincerity! I can get full marks for all the homework in the school, even if I don't know it, I will find a way to solve it, I think the best teachers are our students themselves, and we know most about some shortcomings. β
"Then let's try it!"
She led Shen Anqing to a small room full of books, and then she took out a test paper from the bookcase and handed it to him. "As long as you can get sixty points, I will agree to you being the teacher of His Highness Yichen. β
"Good!"
Shen Anqing replied calmly, and at the same time sat down in the window seat, there was also a woman slightly older than her in this small room, who was looking at the test paper not far from her at this time.
She picked up the test paper and looked at it, almost fainting.
There are three major questions on it, the first question is the content of the Jewish physicist Einstein's theory of relativity; the second question is the feeling of Faust after reading the work of the great German writer Goethe; the third question is about the translation of the six Chinese languages;
Oh my God!
Shen Anqing almost didn't fall off the bench and made a roll of paper, and she had never seen such a boring test question.
Let's not talk about the content of the theory of relativity, Goethe's Faust she has never read at all, and there are translations of six Chinese, English is good, and the others can not be understood at all.
This is obviously despising my shallow knowledge! She glanced at the other woman next to her who was seriously working on the question, and seemed to give her a contemptuous glance.
Shen Anqing said angrily: "How can this be true! I really haven't read Faust, I can't read the content of his Chinese, and I don't know anything about the theory of relativity, but these are fundamentally different things from teaching the prince to study! The prince himself wants to achieve excellent results in the next final exam, not any understanding." β
Hearing this, the woman shouted: "If I don't have any ability, how can I rest assured that I will hand over His Highness's studies to you, and the person who will be a teacher for His Highness must be the dragon and phoenix among people, do you understand?"
All right!
Shen Anqing sat down and answered the question.
