The girl bit her lower lip, and her face turned pale.

If she can't pass the women's school, then she can't stay in the capital, and she can only go back to the place where birds don't in Qingzhou.

Thinking back to what had just happened, the Tong girl's heart sank little by little, and she couldn't help but wonder if she was dreaming.

She secretly pinched herself, and the pain told her that none of this was a dream, and her heart was even more confused.

She didn't understand, are the nobles in this capital all blind and blind?!

They don't want to think that Miss Xie Liu has the help of the queen's mother, and she is the future queen, and sooner or later she will be the mother of the world.

By that time, all of them had offended Miss Xie Liu, and Miss Xie Liu still had no accounts to settle accounts and take revenge!

The boy girl quietly looked around at the crowd and sat back in her place silently, at this moment, she only wished that everyone else would forget about her existence.

Those nobles in Beijing didn't pay attention to the girl Tong at all, and whispered one by one, some of them were watching a lively scene, and some were overjoyed.

Especially the few people who took the lead in echoing Duanmu Fei were all in high spirits, secretly thinking: When I go home, I must tell my father that I have befriended the fourth girl of Duanmu today, and my father will definitely be happy.

The atmosphere in the water pavilion gradually became lively again.

The candidates all returned to their seats and sat down, and the female students, including Zhang Lan, continued to put away the paintings on the bookcase, and everything was in order, as if the previous feud had never happened.

Only Xie Xiangling's painting lay quietly on the bookcase, and no one paid attention to it.

The cup of tea that Xie Xiangling had given to Zhang Lanjing was also quietly placed in the corner of the bookcase, the tea lid on the teacup was slightly offset, and wisps of white heat rose from the teacup......

As time passed, the white gas became lighter and lighter, and I don't know how long it took, and the tea in the teacup also cooled down.

Qi Shi entered the west to look at the painting for a while, and the girls sat in the water pavilion and waited, all of them were elegant, but Duanmufei was a little absent-minded, thinking about whether to go to Huanbi Pavilion to see the chess game over there for a while, looking at the carp in the lake outside the window for a while, thinking about how to tempt the little cousin to go out with her later, and thinking of Qi Daozhi's painting for a while, and feeling itchy......

Time passed little by little, and the waiting time seemed to pass very slowly, and slowly, the other girls were a little impatient, and from time to time they stretched their necks to look at the curtain that led to the west room.

I don't know how long it took, the door curtain embroidered with butterflies and bluegrass was picked up from the other side, and Qi took Zhang Lan and three other female students out of the western room.

Qi sat down behind the bookcase in the middle again, and after looking around at everyone, he began to announce the results of today's re-examination straight to the point.

"There are ten people who participated in the painting exam today, one abstained, and five of the other nine people were selected, namely Duanmu girl, Zhang girl, Yan girl, Li girl, ......"

"The leader of today's painting test is Duanmu girl."

Qi raised his hand and made a gesture, and the two female students carefully unfolded a painting and displayed it in front of everyone.

Next, there is no need for Qi to say anything more, the painting skills of several candidates present are all the best among their peers, and the level of painting can be known at a glance.

This painting is an ink drawing, depicting the orchid garden in winter, the snow is flying, and the water pavilion by the lake looms between the plum forests, depicting thousands of flowers and branches in light ink, and the plum branches are vigorous, proud in the wind and snow.

Outside the water pavilion, a girl with combed hair put her hands on the window sill and poked her head into the room.

Zi said: There is no class in teaching.

Obviously, there is neither a gentleman nor a student reading in this painting, but it seems to make people hear the sound of reading aloud, which is elegant and interesting, and has far-reaching meaning, which makes people taste it again and again.

But anyone who knows how to draw can see that it is more than a step above the paintings of the rest of them.

Some people also quietly went to look at the painting that Xie Xiangling left on the desk, although the corner of the painting paper was stained with some ink, but the painting was not damaged much, and the picture was clear and complete.

Xie Xiangling painted a picture of a moonlit night, with a bright moon in the sky, a bright moonlight, and a full moon reflected in the lake.

There are three women sitting under the willow tree by the lake, one is playing the qin, one is twisting chess, and one is holding a pen to write inscriptions on the painting.

The moonlit night is quiet, lining the three of them with clear eyebrows and elegant eyes, and a noble temperament, like idle clouds and wild cranes, and it seems that they are discussing and planning a female school all night.

At first glance, this painting looks quiet and quiet, and if you take a closer look, you can feel the artist's compliment to the three gentlemen.

When the two paintings are placed together, the artistic conception is immediately superior.

The Tong girl looked at Xie Xiangling's paintings, and then looked at Duanmufei's paintings, and her heart was more complicated:

She and Xie Xiangling have known each other in Qingzhou for many years, in Qingzhou, Xie Xiangling is regarded as the first talented woman, and no one can match the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, especially the painting.

Compared with this Duanmu Fourth Girl, Xie Xiangling is indeed inferior.

Miss Tong looked at Duanmu Fei in a daze, and many girls around her stepped forward to congratulate Duanmu Fei on winning the leader, like the stars and the moon.

Duanmu Fei stared at Qi Shi with burning eyes, those eyes seemed to be able to speak, she had won the leader, so when the painting was repaired, she could show it.

Qi couldn't help but laugh in his heart, his face was still calm and generous, and he said: "Today's painting exam is over, and the accepted posts will be sent to all provinces within three days." ”

All the girls saluted the Qi family one after another, and several people in the exam were overjoyed on their faces, and those who failed were disappointed and helpless, and some people couldn't help but wonder if they would have been able to pass the exam today if they hadn't given Xie Xiangling help before......

Those people looked back and forth at Qi's, Duanmufei and Zhang Lan, and they regretted it in their hearts.

It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in this world.

The four unsuccessful girls quickly said goodbye, they just left on the front foot, and Dangui, Lan Tingyun and Wu Congsu came in a hurry on the back foot, Dangui said with a smile as he walked: "The leader must be Sister Scarlet, why are you in such a hurry!" ”

"Didn't I want to see Qi Daozhi's painting!" Lan Tingyun said confidently.

"Sister Lan, haven't you seen that painting?" Wu Congsu asked curiously.

"No, Mr. Qi treasured that painting, saying that he was going to give it to the leader of today's painting exam...... The leader must be the scarlet sister. ”

While speaking, Dangui and Lan Tingyun entered the water pavilion.

Lan Tingyun came with an expectant face, but still couldn't see the painting.

Qi said with a smile: "Don't worry, that painting should be repaired the day after tomorrow......"

Duanmufei and Lan Tingyun's eyes lit up when they heard this, and Duanmufei couldn't wait to say, "Then I'll come here to see the day after tomorrow." ”

She intuitively said the word "look", she didn't plan to ask for Qi's painting, she just wanted to take a look, and she was satisfied when she opened her eyes.

Anyway, the exam was over, and Duanmufei silently began to think about finding an excuse to leave.

Her little bit of caution was on her face, and Qi Shi came out at a glance, secretly amused in her heart.

Qi was in a good mood at the moment, and his whole face was radiant.

Today she successfully coaxed the little girl over, and got another good painting......

Qi's smiling gaze fell on Duanmufei's painting, and the corners of his lips curled.

Today is already very good.

The little girl doesn't like to read, but she is a student of a female school, and in the future, she can coax her to come to class occasionally and talk about calligraphy and painting with her, which is also a beautiful thing.

Qi moved his eyebrows, and continued casually: "Fei'er, I asked someone to find a painting of Wang Shuyun's character a few days ago, and I have found it, and in three or four days, that character should be available." ”

Wang Shuyun's words! Duanmufei's eyes sparkled like two lit lanterns.

Zhang Lan, Dangui, and Lan Tingyun also had bright eyes.

"When that painting arrives, I'll bring it to the class and give it to you for a reward." Qi Shi just didn't see Duanmu Fei's expectant eyes, and threw the bait casually.

"......" Duanmu Fei was entangled, and it seemed like there were two villains in a tug-of-war in his heart.

Hey, should she read the words, or stay at home and sleep in.

Qi's eyes were full of smiles, and she was about to say something more, when another female student with Peilan on her chest came in, walked closer, and said to Qi, "Mr. Qi, Mr. Li and Mr. Zhong, please come over and talk about it." ”

"You guys play by yourself, I'll go first." Qi stroked his sleeves and took his leave.

After the girls present sent Qi away, they also left the water pavilion one after another.

Halfway through the hour, the sun was slightly slanting to the west, and the sun was dazzling, but it was no longer as blazing as at noon.

Zhang Lan said with a smile: "Fourth girl Duanmu, I'll send you out." ”

Duanmu's scarlet eyes rolled slightly, "Miss Zhangwu, there is a new dim sum shop at the end of the street, and the chestnut crisps sold in it are delicious." ”

As soon as she heard the chestnut crisp, Zhang Lan's eyes immediately lit up, her index finger moved slightly, her demeanor was still dignified and demure, and she was a little hesitant in her heart.

Today, for the entrance exam, the women's school has suspended classes, and she doesn't have to attend classes, but there are still some finishing matters to deal with here.

Dangui and Lan Tingyun didn't pay attention to Zhang Lan's entanglement, Dangui smiled and grabbed Zhang Lan's left arm and said, "Let's go." Ah Lan, let's go buy some chestnut crisps together, and then go to the theater next door to listen to the play and eat it at the same time. ”

Dangui squeezed his eyebrows at Zhang Lan for a while, "I heard someone say just now that the painting exam is 'lively......'" Dangui deliberately increased the volume on the word "lively", which is meaningful.

"What the hell is going on?" Lan Tingyun asked curiously.

In fact, the three of them also heard a rough idea from others, but the three of them became tigers, and there were many people who said it, so it was inevitable that they would be biased, so they wanted to ask for details again.

Of course, Duanmu Fei and Zhang Lan knew that Lan Tingyun was asking about Xie Xiangling, and before the two of them could speak, the Liu girl behind them couldn't wait to tell Xie Xiangling about his intention to frame Zhang Lan, and the other two girls also helped to add a few words occasionally.

Dangui and Lan Tingyun frowned deeply when they heard this, and Duanmu said with a smile: "Miss Xie Liu slandered Miss Zhang's reputation, but she has already apologized for tea, so don't pursue it anymore." ”

Duanmu Fei quickly blinked his right eye at them, his smart and cunning appearance was like a little fox, Dangui and Lan Tingyun were stunned, they were all smart people, and after thinking about it, they realized.

Through today's incident in the Water Pavilion, Zhang Lan clearly expressed that the Zhang family did not recognize this marriage, and Xie Xiangling apologized to Zhang Lan for tea, no matter what she "apologized" for, but the Zhang family could believe that this was an apology for her "nonsense".

Even if the Cheng'en Mansion is unhappy afterwards, and even goes to the queen to make the decision, it doesn't matter, in short, the news that the Zhang family does not recognize this marriage can definitely spread.

What about the Queen?!

At that time, even if the queen doesn't care about the emperor's serious illness and directly decrees marriage, the reluctance of the Zhang family has already been put on the surface, and the queen will inevitably have a reputation of being a bully.

Anyway, the queen doesn't please anything.

For Zhang Lan, it is possible to completely get rid of this inexplicable "finger marriage".

Lan Tingyun and Dangui exchanged a look, and Lan Tingyun said with annoyance: "Hey, I knew that I wouldn't go to Huanbi Pavilion to help." ”

Dangui nodded frequently in agreement.

"I'll just go into the palace tomorrow and tell Hanxing about it." Speaking of Hanxing, Dangui is happy again. Han Xing has been locked up in the palace recently, and if she knew that she hadn't seen this excitement, she would definitely be even more annoyed than her.

Wu Congsu regretted it even more than the two of them, and sighed in her heart: Hey, she originally thought that the painting exam was too quiet and boring, so she went to other exam rooms to wander around. Who would have thought that this kind of thing would happen after she left, so that she missed such a lively scene. It's a pity, if she is also there, she can also cheer for Zhang Lan and Duanmufei.

At this moment, Wu caught a glimpse of something from the corner of Su's eyes, and suddenly stopped, "Hey, that's Miss Xie Liu?" ”

Duanmu Fei and Dangui also stopped, followed Wu Congsu's gaze, and saw that there were two girls in the pavilion on the other side of the lake who seemed to be arguing, one of the two girls was wearing a red dress, and the other was wearing an emerald dress, it was Xie Xiangling and Miss Tong.

Xie Xiangling casually tore off a flower from the flowers on the side and threw it at the Tong girl. The boy didn't dare to move, and let the broken flower fall on her forehead.

The remnants of flowers slipped from her head and fell to the ground through her shoulders.

Xie Xiangling's face was pale, and he was angry, and after smashing a flower, he seemed to be still unrelieved of his hatred, and raised his hand to point at the boy girl and scolded.

The boy girl stood against the railing with her hands and feet shrunk, her head almost down to her chest.

Even if Duanmufei and the others were far away from these two and couldn't hear what Xie Xiangling was scolding, they could see that her scolding would never sound good, and she was obviously venting her anger with the girl.

At this moment, Xie Xiangling still has the arrogance and elegance of his usual days, and his angry and corrupt appearance is no different from that of a shrew in the market.

Miss Liu and the others naturally saw this scene, and secretly rejoiced in their hearts: fortunately, they were not stupid enough to stand on the same front with Xie Xiangling, and they were so narrow-minded, it was better to stay away.

Dangui pursed his lips, look at Xie Xiangling's virtue that can't tolerate people, whoever will be the concubine of the fourth prince in the future will be unlucky!

"Ah Lan," Dan Gui leaned into Zhang Lan's ear and whispered, "Fortunately, you're finally free." ”

Lan Tingyun was beside Dangui, and when she heard it, she stroked her palms and smiled: "It's really a happy event, it's worth celebrating!" ”

Lan Tingyun walked to the other side of Zhang Lan and grabbed Zhang Lan's right arm, "Ah Lan, it's time to celebrate!" ”

"One is to celebrate your escape from the sea of suffering, and the other is to celebrate that everyone has been admitted to the women's school. Today I invite you to watch the play. ”

Lan Tingyun smiled and beckoned Miss Liu and the three of them to go to the teahouse with them to sit down, Miss Liu and the others were too busy to respond, and they were all overjoyed.

Miss Liu smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed, and she said secretly: This is an unexpected surprise, and it is really not a loss today!

Dangui took out a pocket watch from his sleeve and looked at it, pulled Zhang Lan with one hand, pulled Duanmu Fei with the other, and pulled them forward half-dragging and half-dragging, "Let's go, the next scene in the theater will start after about a stick of incense, we will go over now, just in time." ”

The group continued to walk in the direction of the gate with a smile, there were seven or eight people in their group, and when they walked by, it was inevitable that they would also attract the attention of other people next to them, and Xie Xiangling and Miss Tong in the pavilion also saw it.

Xie Xiangling couldn't take care of Miss Tong anymore, and looked at the back of Duanmufei, Zhang Lan and their entourage leaving in a daze, with gloomy eyes.

She pulled another flower from the bush and rubbed the petals so hard that the juice of the petals stained her plain white fingertips like blood.

Duanmu Fei and Zhang Lan don't know each other so much, they don't take their Xie family, the queen mother and the four princes in their eyes at all, they are simply eating the bear's heart and leopard gall, she won't just forget it!

The Tong girl glanced at Xie Xiangling's gloomy face and lowered her head silently.

------Off topic------

Don't get stuck today, right?

As mentioned earlier, Miss Tong and another person who supported Xie Liu had just come from other places to take the girls' school exam, and no one had mentioned that they couldn't be messed with.

Is there a monthly pass to celebrate the little cousin getting rid of the "finger marriage"!
