Chapter 14: Promotion

Li Mu'er put down her pen, wiped her sweat with the sleeve behind her hand, cheered up, stepped out of her seat and knelt down, and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has finished working." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Zhu Youzhu ordered Zhuangyuanlang to look at it first. After reading the first sentence, Zhuang Yuanlang glanced up at Li Mu'er, chuckled and shook his head. Everyone thought that Zhuang Yuanlang's move was dissatisfied, but Li Mu'er smiled heartily at him.

Zhuang Yuanlang continued to read the papers, nodding for a while and frowning for a while, causing everyone to speculate again and again.

It was Liu Jian's turn, but he frequently praised it.

Liu Ji took it, read the beginning of the article, his eyes widened, and he scolded for being presumptuous.

Ma Wensheng and He Qiaoxin were extremely calm after reading it and did not say a word.

Xiao Jing waited for everyone to read it before taking it and offering it to Zhu Youji.

Zhu Youzhu had already been up and down in his heart, but he pretended to be extremely calm on his face, calmly opened the volume, and calmly read:

"What's the matter! Qin Zhi has no way, how can the palace be guarded! ”

How can a good palace be guarded! If the emperor has no way, the palace cannot be guarded! Zhu Youzhu was not angry, but very satisfied. Looking at it again, the article has not been vain, there are no hidden generalities, and they are all straightforward. Among them, according to the scriptures, there are Zhou Youwang who laughed at the beacon fire for the Pomeranians, and finally died in the chaos of arrows, and there are also Renzong's short reign, which made many unjust cases clear. Zhu Youzhu knew that although the answerer's surname was Shen Qionglian, the bits and pieces in the text were Li Muer's heartfelt words, and it was just right to refer to the past and the present.

After reading the whole article, he looked at the ministers and asked Liu Jian first: "Since Mr. is the inquirer, what do you think of this article?" ”

Liu Jian was pleased: "Your Majesty, the Shen family's style of writing is smooth, and there is nothing to be said about it, which really surprises the old ministers. And she is a woman, but she is not shallow, wandering unbridled in the literary language, and she has become a spirit of her own. Lao Chen thought that if she was born as a man, she would definitely be able to make contributions in the court. He said and looked back at Li Mu'er, and then bowed his hand to Zhu Youji,

"It is the emperor's great fortune to have this talent, and I hope the emperor will not bury it."

Li Muer was grateful to Liu Jian in her heart, but she disagreed with his conclusion that men and women were male and female, and wanted to refute it. But because of the abdominal pain, she could only give up, she lowered her body and curled up in a ball quietly.

Ma Cong had eaten a stomach full of chicken feathers and was in a mess, and he had been watching Li Mu'er silently, but at this moment, he seemed to have received a holy decree, and echoed sideways: "Although the minister is not talented, he also thinks that this Shen Qionglian is brilliant and does not lose to me and other men." ”

Liu Ji didn't follow, and because the emperor had just given Ma Wei, he didn't dare to be too tough, so he said tactfully: "Your Majesty, Shen's literary talent is acceptable, but the minister reads every word of her article, and you can know that this person is too impetuous." The female officials of the inner court should be humble and easy-going, if this woman is to serve the emperor's side, I am afraid that it will be inappropriate. ”

Ma Wensheng and He Qiaoxin also followed, probably because they are talented, but they can't be officials.

At this time, King Xing stepped out and said: "My brother loves to read and write since he was a child, and he has benefited a lot from reading Shen's articles today. Those who are full of wealth, laughing and scolding, are all articles. The younger brother is young and doesn't know anything about the righteousness, but he only knows that today's test is this Shen's knowledge, and her knowledge is already one in ten thousand among women. ”

Several people began to argue. But I heard the most irrelevant champion Lang suddenly say: "Your Majesty, the minister has a few words to say. Before the minister entered Beijing to take the exam, the family teacher once warned Yu Chen: Usually make a fuss, and the plea and prose can be a work for generations; If you are fortunate enough to get the palace test, you must get straight to the point, so that you can catch people's attention and teach people to never forget. Shen Yuzhi is the same as the palace test of the ministers today. The minister admires Shen Yushi, and his spirit is not inferior to that of ministers and other imperial examination scholars, and his talent is better than that of most famous ladies. The minister said something offensive, Shen Shi was really useless as this mere imperial servant. ”

Li Mu'er raised her head suddenly, and she was really impressed by this champion. What he said, for some reason, made her feel inexplicably familiar and close, Li Mu'er was puzzled, she had never seen this person before.

Zhuang Yuanlang's words were also the most pleasant to Zhu Youji's ears, he looked at him appreciatively, and then commented: "Qian Fu's words are the most in line with my heart." Shen's writing is bold and sharp, but he is alert to me. I will take it and do it, no matter the front and back harem, I will not disappoint the people! ”

Everyone knelt on the ground and shouted "Your Majesty Shengming".

Only then did Zhu Youzhu order: "Pass the order, now there is the Shen Qionglian of the Ye Court, I have to try it myself, she is talented, she is promoted to a female bachelor, she is given to live in the Yongsu Palace, and she is given the front of the palace." ”

Final word.

Li Mu'er became a female bachelor so inexplicably but with great difficulty.

I can only thank you: "Minister, Shen Qionglian, knock on Longen!" Thanks to the emperor's refusal to give up, the ministers will cherish it in the future, set an example for the palace people, and maintain the Yongsu of the Houting Court! ”

The wood has been completed, and everyone has retired one after another.

It's just that some people are disappointed, and some people get their wish.

Ma Cong didn't want her to stay in the palace, but at the moment, he was happy for her. When I was a child, I often took her to skip class together, and my husband was so angry that he blew his beard and glared. But he knew in his heart that Li Mu'er was smart. Everyone says that she is naughty and mischievous, but in fact, she learns things very quickly, and even always catches up with herself. Only this martial arts...... Ma Cong thought it was both funny and ironic, and he used to love to fight with her, and laughed when he saw her defeated. But now she is also because of her defeat under her own hands, so she will fall to this point......

Ma Cong couldn't help but stop when she walked to Li Mu'er's side, she felt that she was not good just now, but now she still couldn't stand on her knees, and her slightly poked out face was as white as paper. Ma Cong was frightened, looked back at the emperor, and saw that the latter was just like him, staring at Li Mu'er nervously, just waiting for everyone to leave the palace.

Ma Wensheng had already walked to the gate of the hall, and when he saw that his son did not follow, he called him sternly. Before Ma Cong could answer, Zhu Youzhu said, "Ma Tongzhi, wait, I still have something to ask you." ”

Ma Wensheng had no choice but to go back alone.

Seeing his father turn around and his back disappear under His Majesty, Ma Cong was so anxious that he hurried to help Li Mu'er. Zhu Youji had also arrived at his side, and the two of them were on one side, and they didn't care about the etiquette of the monarch and the ministers, so they all looked up to Li Mu'er, and asked what was wrong.

Li Mu'er barely stood up, and felt that it was too painful, at this moment, the pressure was relieved, and she was physically and mentally exhausted, so she couldn't care about answering them, so she only struggled and said: "Bed, bed ......"

Zhu Youzhu understood and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to lie on the bed?" “

Li Mu'er was so weak that she could only nod.

"Okay, I'll go right away." Zhu Youzhu said that his sleeves were floating, and he wanted to do it. But Ma Cheng took the lead, hugged her horizontally, and hurriedly rushed out of the hall.

Zhu Youzhu chased after her, and her heart was a little more important than when she was anxious about her exam in the palace. If she is scared and nervous, it is too serious, but why did she suddenly become such a haggard appearance?

After thinking about it, I have come to the Yongsu Palace. Tremella was kicking the shuttlecock in the courtyard, and was also startled when she saw Li Mu'er, and hurriedly went into the house to make the bed.

As soon as Li Mu'er got on the bed, she clutched her stomach and shrunk herself into a ball before exhaling.

Ma Cong covered the quilt for her before asking, "What's the matter?" When you enter the temple, you are still alive. ”

Zhu Youzhu stood on the outer edge of the bed, and also answered: "Yes, look at you holding your stomach, did you eat something bad?" ”

Even Xiao Jing, who was following him, said: "Your Majesty, the female bachelor doesn't look good, do you want to invite the doctor to take a look?" ”

Li Mu'er hurriedly shouted: "Don't ......"

Ma Cong patted her shoulder and said gently: "Look at your pain like this, how can you do it if you don't find someone to take a look?" ”

Li Mu'er ignored him, only looked at the white fungus on the side, and said to her with her teeth chattering: "Brown sugar...... Brown Sugar ......"

Thinking that she had misheard, Tremella hurriedly asked, "What?" What does my sister want? ”

Li Mu'er roared in a low voice: "Red! Sugar! ”

Only then did Tremella realize, "Huh? Yes, yes, I'm going to boil brown sugar water! Saying that, he made a gesture at Zhu Youzhu and hurriedly ran out.

Zhu Youzhu and Ma Cong didn't know why, so they had to wait.

When the white fungus returned to the house, a strong smell of ginger followed. Seeing that they were still there, Whitefungus blushed suddenly. She walked to the side of the bed, leaned over and separated Ma Cong, and then called Li Mu'er.

Li Mu'er closed her eyes, was woken up by the white fungus, and struggled to get up, but Ma Cong came up to help her with an arrow, and almost knocked over the bowl in the white fungus's hand. Li Mu'er was also frightened, leaned on his shoulder and said weakly: "Why don't you leave?" ”

Zhu Youzhu wanted to help her several times, but because of his Ninety-Five Honor, he was already annoyed, and said sullenly: "You look like this, how can people rest assured?" ”

When Li Mu'er heard his voice, she remembered that he played the piano for her in the palace just now to soothe her emotions, so she felt heartwarming and didn't say anything anymore.

Drinking the brown sugar water while it was hot, Li Mu'er finally turned a little pale. Xiao Jing has been on an errand in the palace for a long time, and he has guessed the approximately, so he said to Zhu Youji: "Your Majesty, the female bachelor is fine, the emperor may be inconvenient to stay here, the old slave will take care of people, please go back." ”

Zhu Youzhu still stared at Li Mu'er intently.

As soon as Li Mu'er raised his eyes, he fell into his eyes, and a flush appeared on his pale face.

She glanced at Ma Cong embarrassedly again, and then said embarrassedly: "The king of secret music knows the moon, and calls people to accompany him to wash his skirt." ”

This time it was Zhu Youji's turn and Ma Cong's embarrassment.

She was afraid that the water was coming.

Zhu Youzhu coughed lightly a few times and instructed her: "Recuperate well in the past few days, and come back to duty when you recover." Then he lifted his feet and walked away. When I went out, I didn't forget to call Ma Cong together.

Ma Cong looked at her a few more times before saying, "Fortunately, it was a false alarm." However, today is in the limelight in the Qianqing Palace, and you must be more careful in the palace in the future. ”

"Got it......" Li Mu'er responded obediently, but she was thinking in her heart, he always said a few words every time, as if there were jackals, tigers and leopards in this palace who were going to eat her.

After everyone left, Li Mu'er buried her head in the quilt, maintained a curled up posture, and thought silently in her heart, is it so bad to lose her internal strength? I can make myself nervous until the monthly letter is in advance, and I have never been in pain before?

And this pain lasted for three days.
