In the capital, in the annex of King Chong's Mansion, Zhao Yuanxuan, the lord of Huaizhu County, is preparing to teach the etiquette of entering the palace for an audience.

The sun was shining outside, Zhao Yuanxuan looked listless, the female official sent by the palace was teaching her carefully, but she couldn't listen, she was looking out the window from time to time, wandering in the world, and she would naturally think of a person, that person was coiled in her heart like a demon, making her feel upset.

“…… Kunning Palace entered the number of ceremonies, and when the queen saw it, she should kneel and salute, and say Wanfu......"

The female official is in her thirties, and she can be regarded as an old palace maid, and she has a certain status in the palace, and everything she talks about is according to the script, and she has no understanding of herself, so Zhao Yuanxuan is not very interested at all.

On the contrary, the servant girl next to her, Xiao Li, was listening carefully, because she knew that if her county lord did not understand something, she would definitely embarrass her, she needed to remember all these things, so that she could be asked by her own county lord, if there was something she couldn't remember, she would not be too forceful, because she also knew that her ability was limited.

Finally at noon, the female official's professor was also over, Zhao Yuanxuan stretched his waist, and said very relaxedly: "It's done, you can go out to play in the afternoon!" ”

The female official reminded: "County Lord, you are not allowed to act lightly and arrogantly in the palace, this is the content of the thirteenth subsection......"

"Okay, okay, just write it down by the county lord, it's really troublesome." Zhao Yuanxuan complained, stood up and walked outside, she was depressed in her heart, she wanted to go out, but King Chong gave her a death order, and before receiving the palace etiquette teaching, she was resolutely not allowed to leave the other courtyard for a step, which made Zhao Yuanxuan bored at home every day.

She had wanted to go out to find Ji Ning for a long time.

"This aunt, don't be in a hurry to leave, the palace has prepared food for you, please go over and use it first." Xiao Qian didn't dare to leave with Zhao Yuanxuan, she still had something to explain to the palace maid.

The female official said: "This textbook ......"

"Just teach the book to the slave maid, and the slave will give it to the county master!" Xiao Li carefully took the book that recorded the court etiquette and put it on the table on the side, and then led the way and took the female official to the kitchen on the side side to eat.

Zhao Yuanxuan finally completed the etiquette teaching, like a wild horse on the loose, he ran out of the house excitedly, and before he took a few steps, he saw his eldest brother coming towards him.

"Little sister, ...... are you" Zhao Yuanqi, the son of King Chong, didn't know why his sister was so excited.

Zhao Yuanxuan said happily: "Big brother, my father said that as long as I finish learning court etiquette, I can go out to play, right?" ”

Zhao Yuanqi thought for a while, nodded and said, "Father seems to say so!" But you...... It's better not to go out yet......"

"Why? Big brother, don't you want to take chicken feathers as an arrow, and you want to look at me in the future and don't allow me to leave the house, right? Zhao Yuanxuan was very annoyed.

Zhao Yuanqi smiled bitterly: "I didn't mean that, I just wanted to say, even if you want to go out, wait a few days." Because in a few days there will be a poetry meeting in the city, and the talents of Jiangnan and Jiangbei will compete on the same stage, and there will be bachelors from the Temple of Literature and Hanlin from the imperial court to participate in this poetry meeting, which is unprecedented! ”

"What does that have to do with my inability to go out today?" Zhao Yuanxuan frowned.

"Father has mentioned, let you keep a lady's posture, so try to let you go out less, if you go out today, it is difficult to ensure that when you go out again in a few days, your father will not allow it, at that time do you still want to participate in the Beijing Poetry Society? I'll sign you up for my brother! Zhao Yuanqi said.

Zhao Yuanxuan immediately looked worried, and said with a smile: "Big brother is going to help my sister, what name did you use to help me sign up?" ”

"Zhao Cai! It's a person in Jinling City, and he walks around with the palace on weekdays, I appreciate his talent, and I'm going to let him come to Chongwangfu as a guest, this time he is also in the capital, but he doesn't plan to participate in this poetry meeting, you just use his name to go, and no one can recognize it! Zhao Yuanqi said.

"That's great, then I can compete with those unruly talents from the north and south." Zhao Yuanxuan was looking forward to the grand occasion of the day, and suddenly she blinked and asked, "Will Ji Yongning participate?" ”

"Brother Yongning...... I haven't seen it before, so I didn't ask clearly, but I think I should participate, after all, he is this year's Jinling Township Trial Xie Yuan, many people want to see his talent, if he doesn't go this time, it will make the poetry a lot less colorful. I heard that he won the bid for Liu Ruis in the Oiran election yesterday, and he should be very busy in the past two days, and I will ask him well before the poetry meeting starts in two days! "Zhao Yuanqi said it unintentionally, but Zhao Yuanxuan listened to it over there.

Zhao Yuanxuan was still thinking at first that he could finally compete with Ji Ning, who was above the top, but then he thought about it, there seemed to be something wrong with this, what was the election of the Oiran, what got Liu Rus, she didn't seem to have heard of it at all.

Zhao Yuanxuan hurriedly asked, "Big brother, what are you talking about, Ji Yongning...... Does it have anything to do with Liu Ru? Then Liu Ru also came to the capital? ”

"Hmm." Zhao Yuanqi didn't think that his sister was secretly in love with Ji Ning, but just told his friend's situation.

Because Zhao Yuanqi had never personally gone to Tianxianglou to participate in the Oiran Conference, what he heard was also gossip, and many of the news were not accurate, so he also focused on saying that Ji Ning passed the Oiran Conference and spent 20,000 taels of silver, and finally obtained Liu Ru is three days ago, and Zhao Yuanxuan's face changed immediately.

Ji Yongning...... Where did he get so much silver? 20,000 taels of silver...... Hmph, with so much silver, he can buy a good house in the capital and live a good life, how could he pick up the campaign for Oiran? He...... Where is he now? ”

Zhao Yuanxuan hasn't done anything with Ji Ning yet, but she is like a housekeeper, and she actually points fingers at what Ji Ning did.

Zhao Yuanqi was also a little baffled, he said: "Sister, what are you going to do with Brother Yongning?" You know that he is spending time with Miss Liu now, do you want to disturb him? ”

"I'm too lazy to bother them, I just want to see what this Ji Yongning is thinking, there is that kind of famous lady who likes him, he is indifferent, but he wants to be with a woman from a dusty background, does he not want to take care of his own reputation?"

Zhao Yuanxuan will be bitter and bitter, and he can't care about what Beijing poetry club he wants to participate in in a few days and can't go out, so he probably asked Ji Ning that he might go to Tianxianglou, and he went out in a huff.

After the person left, Zhao Yuanqi was still a little confused, and muttered: "Little sister won't really fall in love with Brother Yongning, right?" But Xiaomei and Brother Yongning don't have much to do with each other, or ...... Brother Yongning's light is too strong to make his sister have a good impression of him? No, I'm going to go and see, don't make any trouble! ”
