"Jin'er was too true for a while, Jin'er knew that she was wrong, and asked her father to forgive her sins, but Jin'er has no malice towards the Nine Emperor Sisters, and she also asked her father to know it!"

In this way, Meng Jin had to forcibly endure the hatred in his heart, knelt down in front of Emperor Meng Zhao in public, and seemed to be extremely respectful in admitting his mistake and pleading. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Your Majesty, the fifth princess is still young, and she is outspoken, and sometimes she will inevitably lose her words. Speaking of which, her temperament is also used to being given by concubines. Empress Jiang spoke out at the right time to help, but took the initiative to take the responsibility on herself.

"Now that you know your mistakes, just pay more attention in the future, you are the imperial sister, and the reason is that you are an example for the princesses."

Seeing this, Emperor Meng Zhao didn't blame anything anymore, and waved his hand to signal Meng Jin to get up.

"Thank you father, Jin'er must remember her father's teachings!"

Meng Jin's face was full of deference, and he quickly thanked him and stood up, not daring to talk nonsense anymore, and honestly returned to his seat and sat down.

The seemingly small waves soon became an episode, after all, the fifth princess has always been favored by Emperor Meng Zhao, and with the support of the queen and Liu Guifei, it is true that such a small matter will not have any real impact on Meng Jin.

But even so, the first time Emperor Meng Zhao blamed Meng Jin in public because of other princesses, it was more or less like a signal, making it impossible for people to ignore and despise the ninth princess Meng Xia as before.

The final round of assessments began soon.

Tang Taifu, who is known as the most knowledgeable in the upper study, and at the same time the most strict and difficult to speak, naturally became the key to deciding whether Meng Xia could enter the upper study.

Many people secretly clenched their fists, hoping that Mrs. Tang could end the assessment as soon as possible and let Meng Xia taste defeat.

Otherwise, in the future, there will really be a princess who is entered into the study in this palace, and she has so many names that make them embarrassed?

Especially those who bet that Meng Xia couldn't enter the study, they couldn't wait to go up to help Mrs. Tang to stump Meng Xia quickly.

However, although Mrs. Tang is strict and unkind, he is a particular person after all, and the content of the fourth round of assessment can only be regarded as decent compared to the previous ones.

This made many people somewhat disappointed, and subconsciously pinched their sweat.

"Ninth princess, there is nothing special about the content of the old man's assessment, it is just to make a fuss."

Tang Taifu didn't pretend to be a courtier, he stood there expressionlessly and said to Meng Xia: "However, before that, the old man has a few questions that he wants to ask the ninth princess to answer. ”

Tang Taifu's actions made people a little unfamous, and everyone muttered to themselves, and they didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in his gourd.

Seeing this, Meng Xia bowed and replied respectfully: "Ah Xia listens, please ask Mrs. Tang to ask!"

"The questions asked by the old man have nothing to do with the content of the assessment, so whether the ninth princess answers or not, it will not affect the final assessment results." Tang Taifu said again: "However, if the ninth princess answers, she has to tell the truth, and the old man doesn't want to listen to those untruths." Otherwise, please simply refuse to answer. ”

"Yes!" Meng Xia was slightly stunned in his heart, but he still responded without hesitation.

She didn't know what Mrs. Tang wanted to ask, but she could guess that her answer would have a certain impact on the final assessment results, otherwise Mrs. Tang would not have chosen to make some irrelevant moves at such a time.

Hearing Meng Xia say yes again, Tang Taifu didn't delay his efforts any longer.

He asked directly: "This first question, the old man wants to know why the ninth princess, as a woman, wants to challenge the world, and she has to enter the study?" ”

In fact, Emperor Meng Zhao had also asked Meng Xia this question, but he didn't ask it so harshly.

Many people suddenly perked up and subconsciously became excited.

Tang Taifu's first question was not good, it seems that it is really not as simple as looking on the surface, Meng Xia is afraid that this time it will be more auspicious!

And Meng Xia was also a rare silence, and his expression was much more dignified than when he dealt with the previous three assessments.

It dawned on her that the question had put her in a dilemma.

To answer or not to answer, it is tantamount to admitting Tang Taifu's positioning for her: "As a woman, she has to challenge the world", the so-called want to enter the study is nothing more than to show that she is different, no matter what the reason.

This is not the worst, what is even worse is that if she just reiterates the answer she replied to Emperor Meng Zhao on the occasion of that birthday banquet, it is tantamount to admitting defeat, because this time she has already been labeled as challenging the world.

But if she doesn't reiterate and reply to something else, then the reply from the last birthday banquet is tantamount to deceiving the king!

This Tang Taifu is really much more powerful than any Taifu in the study, no wonder even the three emperor brothers are in awe of him, and they dare not offend Tang Taifu if they offend anyone.

Meng Xia fell into deep thought, for the first time in all the assessments today, he was in a serious position in the real sense.

Seeing this, Mrs. Tang didn't rush to urge, nor did he have any disdain or arrogance, just looked at Meng Xia so plainly and waited quietly.

Just when many people were a little impatient, Meng Xia, who had not moved for a long time, finally came out of his own thoughts.

"Taifu Tang, before answering your question, Ah Xia would like to explain a few points."

Soon, Meng Xia was no longer silent, looked at Tang Taifu and said very seriously: "First of all, Ah Xia thinks that he loves reading and hopes to do the best he can do what he likes, which is both a kind of nature and an aspiration pursuit, and it has nothing to do with being a woman or a man itself. ”

"Secondly, Ah Xia is trying to get the opportunity to enter the study room under the premise of obtaining the permission of the rules, which is just Ah Xia's own personal matter, because the exhibition is completely unrepresentative, and it has nothing to do with challenging the world."

"In the end, Ah Xia gave birth to the palace and grew up in the palace, and there was no chance to go out of the palace to other schools and academies at will, not to mention that going to the study was the best, so why should Ah Xia be close to him?"

After explaining these three points, facing Mrs. Tang's slightly frowning brows, Meng Xia did not pause, but continued in one go: "So, Mrs. Tang's question, Ah Xia once again solemnly answered. Because he loves to read and hopes that he can use his knowledge to solve problems for his father like all the royal brothers in the future, Ah Xia is looking forward to the opportunity to enter the study room to study formally. In addition, today's experience makes Ah Xia want to add one more point, that is-prove yourself! ”

In the last four words, she said frankly and sonorously, and her crystal clear gaze was so firm that it was shocking.

Tang Taifu's face changed slightly, obviously he didn't expect Meng Xia to answer his question in such a form, and he answered it so well.

He didn't make much comments, but quickly returned to his normal color, and continued to ask in public: "Second question, if the ninth princess didn't pass the assessment today, would you think that this assessment was unfair to you?" ”
