Chapter Eighty-Nine: A Woman Who Is Too Smart

"Brother Shen, do you really want to participate in their literary meeting and fight with them?" Looking at the figure of Gu Detang and the others who were unwilling to leave, a faint trace of worry and hope appeared in Qiu Yingxue's eyes, and asked in a low voice. Pen? Interesting?

The worry was that Shen Yan would lose to them in the literary meeting, although he had not been in contact with Shen Yan for a long time, he had never heard of him having any super attainments in this area; I hope that because I know that Shen Yan still has some talents, such as the eternal absolute, such as the birthday poem given to Mrs. Song last night, and more importantly, I really hope that the man I love will not lose to ordinary people in terms of literary attainments, or I hope that Shen Yan's literary name will overwhelm the reputation of good punishment and good military reputation.

The clear stream is the mainstream of the current society, and if anyone can get a place in the clear stream, it is equivalent to him obtaining the cornerstone of eternity. Just like my father, he has a place in the clear stream, even if he has resisted the decree and suffered hardships, but he is not in the officialdom.

"Don't worry, I know what you're worried about, but just this group of gentlemen really can't make waves, at most it will only make people feel disgusting or upset." Shen Yan gave Qiu Yingxue a relieved look, a faint confident smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and she said with a radiant look.

"Although they are unbearable, the background behind them has to be taken seriously." A faint sweet smile appeared on the corner of Qiu Yingxue's mouth, a trace of hope flashed in her eyes, and she glanced at Shen Yan lightly.

"I know that there are several main reasons why I agreed to them to participate in the meeting, first of all, their identities and I determine that we will always be opposites, unless I am willing to change my position, but once my side has just revealed that I want to change my position or action, the emperor will send someone to detain me." Shen Yan knew in his heart that in addition to the mission set by the emperor for himself, in addition, it was impossible for the nobles and the poor to come together, this was a contradiction that could never be reconciled.

"Brother Shen means that you can only follow the path set for you by the emperor?" Qiu Yingxue's eyebrows frowned slightly, with a faint and charming demeanor in her sorrow, and Shen Yan's eyes lit up obviously.

"Yes, that's right, no matter which official I fight or what, as long as I don't go too far, as long as I don't cross the emperor's bottom line, I will be safe, which is why I beat Tong Shaojun and Wen Tianyu can still invite you to visit the lake in a chic way." A faint smile appeared at the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, and behind the smile was a faint trace of helplessness and sorrow, the sacred heart was unpredictable, who could guarantee that he would always guess the emperor's thoughts and bottom line.

"But, Brother Shen, how can you guess the emperor's mind every time?" Hearing Shen Yan's words, a faint helplessness appeared in Qiu Yingxue's eyes, she was smart and had already realized from Qiu Mubai's body that the sacred heart was unpredictable, and her father had so hard to get the account book from Jiangnan that was enough to set off a huge wave in the court, but as a result, the emperor put the matter on hold, and treated her father coldly for a while.

"Who can do this, even Father-in-law Xu, who has served the emperor for so long, can't guarantee it, but I can still grasp some of the emperor's basic bottom lines." Shen Yan's words were full of confidence, in fact, every step he took was pressed against the emperor's mind and followed the emperor's train of thought, and it was precisely because of this that he could be so at ease as he is now.

"What about the other reasons?" Qiu Yingxue knew that this was Shen Yan's fate, and it was very difficult to change it, even more difficult than ascending to the sky, so she didn't want to follow this topic, so as not to make Shen Yan feel helpless and a little unhappy in her heart, so she asked for other reasons.

"The court has always been heavy on literature and light on martial arts, and of course it is beneficial to your reputation to participate in more literary meetings, and the prerequisite is to shine at the literary meeting, although I dare not say that I am full of wealth, but is it right to write poetry, there are always a few poems, showing your face, and ensuring that you don't lose or have a little confidence." Nonsense, I am familiar with 300 Tang poems, I can't make poems and I can chant, at least I can steal when I can't chant, and secretly plagiarize a few classics, it's better to be stunned by their group of dumbfounded.

"If a person wants to rise quickly, it is nothing more than two ways, one is to win a few points of fame in the clear stream, this certainly requires a proud character, but it also depends on the timing, to see if there are nobles to pull a hand, many literati are taking this road, so it is not easy to win the fame of the world on this road, you see Zhan Shihui is nicknamed the first young man in Jinling, but in the eyes of the emperor, he is not even a fart." Although Shen Yan has accumulated thousands of years of cultural essence and dross in his mind, he can be allowed to gain fame or fame, but he really doesn't have the heart to do so at present.

"As for the second way, military merit, although the court emphasizes literature and light on military force, once it obtains real military merit, it will have capital, but the premise is that the people in the military or military department can do things with conscience and not erase the military merits of soldiers."

"What does Brother Shen mean that you are doing two ways at the same time?" Hearing Shen Yan's words, a strange look appeared in Qiu Yingxue's eyes, thinking that Shen Yan had been busy training troops recently, it was not difficult to guess Shen Yan's thoughts.

"Yes, the success or failure depends on a game in ten days." Hearing Qiu Yingxue's guess, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, this woman is really smart, many times she can see through it at a glance, and she hasn't even reminded her that she can guess her own thoughts, fortunately in this male-dominated society, otherwise, it will really discourage many men.

"The third reason is that I deliberately wanted the emperor to know that I was messing around again, but while messing around, I had an extremely good grasp of the scale." A faint sly smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, Your Majesty, don't you want to know my movements at all times, then I will deliberately do something to give you a headache.

Shen Yan knew very well in his heart that he must not be too good or outstanding at the moment, otherwise it would definitely arouse the emperor's suspicion, and he didn't want to throw away this hard-won trust at will, an official's name or things could not always appear in the emperor's mind, after a long time, the emperor would naturally forget himself, knowing the truth well, how could he make such a low-level mistake.

"I understand what Brother Shen means, Brother Shen did this, one is to tell those gentlemen positively that you are not afraid of them at all, and you still hope that they will make as much trouble with you as possible, so that the emperor will rest assured that you will not get together with them. The second is to let the emperor always remember your name, but it is impossible for a person to do such intentional things forever, and at the same time, you are also worried that if you perform too well, the emperor will feel uncomfortable and even suspicious, so you will occasionally show a cynical attitude, and even some nonsense, and this is the secret weapon for you to dispel the emperor's suspicion of you and let you always gain the emperor's trust. A glimmer of wisdom appeared in Qiu Yingxue's eyes, as if the goddess of wisdom possessed her.

Hearing Qiu Yingxue's explanation, Shen Yan's eyes were full of surprise, Mom, this woman is so smart, so smart that men are ashamed of themselves and embarrassed, who would dare to marry such a woman.
