"There are a total of five judges, one of them is me, Zhou Wenbai and Fang Jingye are also. The other two were the masters of the country. Kang Shilin said.

After speaking, he added: "This competition is sponsored by Guozijian, and the painting competition is in charge of Fang Jingye." ”

Hearing this string of names, Zhao Ruxi had a headache: "Master, in this case, if I participate in the competition and get a place, won't it make you gossip?" ”

Kang Shilin was her master, and Zhou Wenbai and Fang Jingye followed her to learn sketching for half a year. Although they are nameless, and the two are old, the two of them are indeed her students.

Three of the five judges are so close to her, if she wins the first place, others will definitely say that the judgment is unfair based on this alone.

Wen Wu is the first, Wu Wu is the second, Picasso's paintings and Xu Beihong's paintings are placed together, whose paintings are the first?

Kang Shilin touched his beard and was also stumped by this question.

Zhao Ruxi's eyes rolled and said, "Otherwise." ”

She told the two of them the way, and before Kang Shilin could speak, Wu Zong called out: "This method is good." ”

Zhao Ruxi smiled: "Then do it." ”

Although Kang Shilin had some regrets, in order not to let his apprentice be criticized, he could only nod and agree.

Seeing that it was too late, Zhao Ruxi did not stay in Kangfu any longer, said goodbye with Wu Zong, separated at the door, and went home separately.

As soon as she arrived at the gate of Suipingbo's Mansion, she saw Zhao Yuanxun waiting at the gatehouse.

"Dad, what are you doing here?" Zhao Ruxi said curiously.

"I'm waiting for you." Zhao Yuanxun said and handed Zhao Ruxi a post.

This is a prayer post, with a pink-purple cover and a hand-carved hollow pattern, which looks extremely delicate; If you get closer, you can smell a faint fragrance.

This is clearly a prayer post for women.

Zhao Ruxi glanced at his father suspiciously and opened the post.

There are two lines of words written on it in Juanxiu's words, and the signature is Xiao Yuyue.

"This ......" As soon as he saw the name, Zhao Ruxi's eyebrows furrowed.

She looked up at Zhao Yuanxun: "Lord Pingyang? Where is she? ”

Zhao Yuanxun nodded: "In the hall, your grandmother and your mother are talking with her. ”

He looked at his daughter deeply and didn't say anything.

Since hearing that his daughter had analyzed the political situation to the top, looked at the people around her daughter, and then learned that her daughter's paintings had sold for a sky-high price, Zhao Yuanxun knew that her daughter had already stood at a height that he had never touched in his life.

He consciously has limited vision and ability, and he can't help his daughter, and he has long stopped pointing fingers at his daughter's affairs.

Although he didn't know what the county lord of Pingyang was doing, he believed that his daughter would take care of this, and he didn't need to say much.

"I see. Dad, go back quickly. It's cold, you cough just right, don't catch a cold anymore. ”

Zhao Yuanxun waved his hand: "You don't care about me, hurry up and deal with your business." ”

Zhao Ruxi nodded and led Qingfeng into the Bofu.

"You go over first, just say I'm back, go back to the backyard first to change clothes and come to the hall, please wait a while." She commanded.

Qingfeng responded, separated from Zhao Ruxi, and went to the hall. Zhao Ruxi went back to the backyard, thinking about how to deal with it while walking.

The county lord of Pingyang is the cousin of Emperor Xiao Yu, in her thirties.

Because his father King Kang died early, he had no power, and the county horse he married was also very ordinary, Xiao Yuyue was a person who had the title of county lord but was not very valued.

Although the Beijing Women's Academy is under the name of Concubine Jin, Concubine Jin, a person confined to the deep palace, is naturally impossible to come out to take care of the academy. Like the eldest princess of Shangde, she only has a name, and she will only make an idea when the academy encounters a major event.

For the sake of her son's future, Xiao Yuyue has been stammering with Concubine Jin all these years. After Concubine Jin got the management of the Beijing Women's Academy, Xiao Yuyue won among the competitors and took on the important task of taking care of the Beijing Women's Academy for Concubine Jin.

Her status in the academy is similar to that of Mrs. Cui.

Now she suddenly came to the door in person, and did not hand over the prayer note in advance, but waited here. Needless to say, it must be because of Zhao Ruxi's excellent results in the annual examination, she made a gesture of a corporal of Lixian and came to invite Zhao Ruxi to study at the Beijing Women's Academy.

Zhao Ruxi changed his clothes and went to the front hall.

"Lord Pingyang, I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting." As soon as Zhao Ruxi entered, he respectfully squatted down and saluted, with an extremely sincere attitude.

"Hurry up and give you a lot of courtesy." Xiao Yuyue stood up and personally helped Zhao Ruxi up, smiling very kindly, "It's me who is abrupt and comes to Meng Lang." It was also when I suddenly saw that your results in the annual examination were very dazzling, and I couldn't hold back the excitement in my heart, which is why I have this rude behavior, and I hope to forgive me. ”

"The county lord Wan Mo said so." The old lady hurriedly said, "It is our honor for you to come to the door in person, how can you be rude?" ”

"Exactly." Zhao Ruxi said, "The county lord favors Ruxi, Ruxi is honored, and he is extremely frightened. ”

In the etiquette of the ancients, it was common to love self-humility and call oneself a "servant". The other party is a royal person, and with the current status of Suiping Bofu, only by lowering his posture can he not be rude.

Seeing Zhao Ruxi's attitude, the smile on Xiao Yuyue's face brightened a little.

"Sit, let's sit down and talk." She pointed to the position of the lower head on the other side of her and said to Zhao Ruxi.

When Zhao Ruxi sat down, a few people exchanged a few more words, and Xiao Yuyue said: "It's not early, I'll just say that I came." ”

"I read your annual exam papers, the handwriting is beautiful and neat, there is no mistake or omission, and the master who read the paper has given you the best. In this way, it can be seen that you are outstanding in learning and have a solid foundation. You also know that every year, there are one or two places in the following academies that can go directly to the Beijing Women's Academy. With your grades, I think I will definitely be able to see you at the Beijing Girls' Academy in the coming year. ”

She looked at Zhao Ruxi: "It stands to reason that I don't need to make this trip, I just need to wait for you to enroll in the new year." After all, it stands to reason that your household registration is in the capital, and you should have been a student of the Beijing Women's Academy. It's just that because of your background, you entered Bac Ninh, and now you can enter the Beijing Women's Academy with your annual examination results, and you will definitely not let go of this opportunity. I also saw the test papers, and I was eager to love it, so I came to the door rashly. Zhiwei, you can't save my face and make people laugh at me. ”

As she spoke, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed as if she had told some joke.

After laughing twice, she said again: "Now, I officially inform you that you have been admitted to the Beijing Women's Academy. As soon as the New Year is over, you will be able to enter the Beijing Girls' Academy. Congratulations. ”

As soon as she heard this, Zhao Ruxi knew that it was not unreasonable for Concubine Jin to hand over the Beijing Women's Academy to Xiao Yuyue to take care of.

This woman is a great character. The words just now, with both grace and power, expressed the art of speaking to the extreme.

If he refuses to enter the Beijing Women's Academy, he will neither conform to the rules nor know how to lift. It's completely leaving only one way for her to go.
