Chapter 21: The Son of the Gentleman (7)
The scorching sun is in the sky, and the sun is shining.
After Zhao Yi didn't need Yang Yuying's reminder for the thirteenth time, got up on time and sat at the small black table, was roasted by the sun and didn't move, and read so selflessly that he didn't even think of eating his favorite refreshment, Yang Yuying patted the book cover of his "Nameless Volume".
As soon as he lifted the page, Zhao Yi was stunned.
It was a small portrait of a young girl.
The eyebrows are like looking at distant mountains, and the face is often like a hibiscus.
The girl is incredibly beautiful, lazily holding her cheeks and smiling, full of aura.
The payment is very simple, and only a few numbers are written - Meng Wangshu has a spare time.
Meng Wangshu is Xie Daoyun of the Meng family, one of the most famous ladies in the capital, the first pure princess, and Zhao Yi's mother.
This is clearly a self-portrait.
Zhao Yi's blood was surging for a while, and he couldn't help but squirm his lips: "Mother! ”
The eyes, the eyebrows, the bridge of the nose...... Zhao Yi had heard people say that he was seven or eight points similar to his mother, but when he saw it today, he felt ashamed.
The same eyebrows and eyes, which are so dazzling on her mother's body, followed her, but she was dragged down by herself.
The corners of Zhao Yi's mouth moved, he didn't speak, and continued to read.
The pages of the book flowed at his slender fingertips, and this was the first time he cherished a book so much, "Meng Wangshu read "Zhuangzi", "Meng Wangshu commented on the three monsters of Qingliu", "Xiaoji Huiyuan Lantern Banquet......
Reading and reading, Zhao Yi's eyes were full of tears.
It turned out that his mother would also use spicy words without a single dirty word to scold people of various identities or high and low lives.
It turned out that in addition to a thin reputation as the first beauty, his mother also had a nickname called Rouge Tiger among girlfriends.
It turned out that his mother was really so talented, and even had a correspondence with Yue Donglou, the national teacher of the current dynasty, and debated with the national teacher in the letter, which was not anyone's favor.
Zhao Yi wiped away his tears and said with a snort: "Thank you." ”
"You're welcome."
Yang Yuying changed his posture in the sea of knowledge.
Playing games, playing dungeons, and doing tasks, naturally use whatever means you have.
After the high pressure, give a little sweetness, which can make this kid more well-behaved.
Summer goes to autumn and winter solstice, and spring flowers bloom.
Recently, everyone up and down the Pure Palace's mansion has been 120,000 points of caution, walking without making a different sound, and not even talking much.
Although King Chun didn't say it explicitly, seeing that he had changed his temper, even his close cronies were always with him, because he didn't drive away a few sparrows in the garden in time, and Xiao Shizi Wenshu was kicked twice.
Fortunately, it's almost over.
Today is already the day of the release of the hospital test list.
The little son of the family also went to take the exam this time.
The prince has not been to the court for the past two days, and has been staring at this matter, and he sent someone to take care of it early in the morning today, and personally went to the champion building at the entrance of the Shuntian Mansion to sit, which is not much different from the father and mother of the ordinary children of the poor family.
In the main courtyard
Princess Dong is talking to her sister-in-law.
The two sisters-in-law have a good relationship, so they don't have so many courtesies, so they dragged a windward pillow to lean, lazy and lazy.
The azaleas bloomed outside the window, the fragrance was faint, Dong ordered the little girl to pinch one, hairpin on the bun, and took a self-portrait in the mirror, only to feel a few more lines at the corners of her eyes.
She has been so aggrieved recently that she feels uncomfortable, and her husband's family can't mention it to anyone, so she can't help but talk to her sister-in-law.
"It's not that my sister is stingy, it's really difficult for the stepmother, the prince indulges in the son, is lawless at home, and is messing around outside, I want to care, the son doesn't listen to me, if I don't care, it seems that my sister has bad thoughts and wants to do something to him."
"If the two I gave birth to were so stubborn, I would have gone up with a big stick a long time ago and beaten up until I was obedient, but can I beat the world?"
"Hey, the prince is going to participate in the imperial examination, he is the son of the palace, and his future is still less than his? Why bother to compete with the poor disciples outside, besides, how much ink is in his stomach, who doesn't know? ”
"The prince wants to indulge, and he also goes around talking to people, making a lot of noise, and the people outside are complimenting themselves in front of the prince, but in fact, who believes that he can pass the exam? Everyone waited to see the jokes, and I went out to socialize, and I felt shameless in front of those clan ladies. ”
Little Peach and a few maids sat at the door, although they couldn't hear what the master of the house said, they could guess and guess, and squeezed each other's eyes.
"You say, can the prince be admitted?"
The little maidens actually don't believe that their own sons can be successful this time.
Since His Majesty in the palace has made a decree to abolish the ban on the children of the ancestral family not to be allowed to take the imperial examination. The children of the clan flocked to take the exam, but unfortunately there were very few who could be admitted.
This year, most of the children of the clan either entered the sect to make a show, or entered the national eunuch, and they could directly take the examination, and if they didn't get in, at least they wouldn't even fail to pass the exam, which would be embarrassing.
Even the children of ordinary officials also have many prison places, and they can directly participate in the township examination as a prisoner.
But they are not biased, it is to spend time and effort to toss blindly, the county test, the government test, the son has passed, the county test ranking is backward, the fourth from the bottom, to the government test ranking is much better, is the eleventh.
It's just that these two doors will not be famous, the identity of the son of the world is there, and the world says that he can live a normal life.
Which examiner dares not to let the prince of the pure Wang family pass the test?
The court is nothing to their palace, but in the end, it is a show, and the requirements of the court are extremely strict, so it is impossible to fool around.
The son of their family, when he was a child, went to the palace to study seriously, but it was only two years, and it was all deserted later.
It's only a short time now, how can you say that you can pick it up and pick it up?
The palace maids in the palace are not the descendants of small families, and they are not a little worse than everyone in terms of knowledge, and everyone knows it in their hearts.
As a result, before noon, the officials of Shuntian Mansion rode horses and wore red to report the good news - Zhao Yi, the son of Chunwang Shizi, Shuntian Mansion, won the first place in the hospital examination.
It is said that there will be no special person to notify the hospital examination, but it also depends on whose happy event it is.
In front of him, the official still passed five levels and killed six generals, and had a melee with seventeen colleagues, so he grabbed a good errand to come to the pure palace.
King Chun actually got the news as soon as possible, and immediately held back the desire to laugh with great difficulty, and sent the news back to the palace, and the monthly money of the whole palace increased fivefold, and as for the happy money for the reward, it was prepared in advance.
It was not a penny, a dime, or copper, but a one-yuan coin, wrapped in gold leaf, and the official who reported the good news was stuffed with two handfuls, which was estimated to be comparable to his two months' wages.
Princess Dong was stunned, and said after a while: "It's just a showman, why is it so public?" ”
There are as many poor shows as there are in the world.
Having said that, when His Majesty also got the news, he specially gave a box of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and Dong suddenly asked his sister-in-law: "Sister-in-law, you said that you should let Xiao Xi go to the Guozijian, how about it?" ”
This is a distrust of the Dong family's teaching level.
Her sister-in-law's voice was a little dry, but she still nodded and said hello.
