Chapter 6 The gentleman arrives
To be honest, it should be good to follow Liu Yan, the master, she doesn't beat, scold or treat the people around her, she is generous, and she often rewards the east and the west. But do you want to say that longan and ginkgo are having a good time? Hehe, that's like drinking water, only you know it in your heart. Liu Yan is different from ordinary girls, she has a wild temperament, and even Queen Cao can't help her daughter, these palace maids are always worried, for fear that she will run away, get into trouble, and hurt herself. There are lessons to be learned from all these things! Just the year before last, Liu Yan passed by the Imperial Garden, and saw the eunuchs pulling a cart of cut flowers, trees, grass and leaves passing by, and had to get into the car, but there was a flower scissors under the grass blades that they put there after their work. Fortunately, the imperial doctor came to diagnose and treat and said that the feet were fine, and the queen mother was kind and compassionate, and did not ask anyone to beat them, but one person was fined three months, and they escaped the catastrophe.
But who can guarantee that there will be no more such a thing? Next time, can the queen be so lenient to them?
The palace ladies get together and talk about the future. Others say that when the year is over, they will be released from the palace to do this and that, but Guiyuan has never thought about that.
She felt that with such a master as the fourth princess, she was afraid that it would be difficult for her to live until the day she was old and left the palace.
Ginkgo said, "Why don't I go to the dining room and tell Grandpa Zhang to make a few delicious dishes?" The sweet and sour pork, the meatballs, the fried river prawns, and the ......"
Gui Yuan shook his head: "You don't have any use for that, the princess probably doesn't have the heart to eat at this time." Even if she ate it, she pondered it again with a wipe of her mouth. ”
"What then?"
Longan thought of a solution, but it was a little damaged.
"I think you can go to Mr. Cheng."
Ginkgo was immediately shocked by her ingenious idea.
Who is Mr. Cheng?
It's not someone else, it's the female master appointed by Empress Cao to several princesses, who teaches them to read, write and draw on weekdays, is a talented girl, from a famous family, and is less than forty years old in her Chinese New Year's Eve. This person is a bit more serious, usually not smiling, and strict with the princesses' homework.
It is conceivable that the princesses can hide from Mr. Cheng, and avoid if they can. Except for lectures, they all walked around her at other times.
"If Mr. Cheng asks the princess to copy and write, then the princess will definitely not have time to think about anything else."
Ginkgo looked at Gui Yuan with a dull expression.
What a bad idea!
But I have to admit that this idea, although it lacks virtue, is very effective. Empress Cao is ruthless to discipline her daughter, but she respects scholars very much, and Mr. Cheng never interferes in disciplining the princesses.
If the princess had known...... "I would not have had any good fruit for them."
"If you don't say it, I won't say it, will the princess know?" Gui Yuan showed a smile and stared at Ginkgo tightly: "As long as the princess is safe and sound, we will make a good deal." If something really happens to the princess...... "then neither of them can escape, and they all have to be blamed."
Ginkgo immediately made up her mind: "My sister is right. Then let's divide the soldiers into two ways, I'll go to the dining room, Mr. Cheng, you are more familiar with you, and Sister Lao will take a trip. ”
Liu Yan didn't know that the palace maids around her conspired to trap her. The lunch is very rich, especially the sweet and sour meat, which is just right, although the meat is over the oil and poured with sugar juice, but the flute is not greasy at all, only feels crispy and delicious. There is also fried river prawns, small shrimp eat that fresh and vigorous, no need to shell, to the oil to roll and sprinkle the condiments can be out of the pot, eating that is called a crispy and tender!
Meimei ate a meal, but Liu Yan's good mood ended here. Before the dining table was removed, the palace maid came in to tell him that Mr. Cheng was here.
This news is nothing less than a slap in the face for Liu Yan!
If you want to say who she is most afraid of in the palace, it must not be the emperor and queen, what is she afraid of her own father and mother?
The number one person she fears and hates the most, it must be Mr. Cheng! You can't beat her, you can't scold her, you have to listen to her! Everyone else will be accommodating, but this Mr. Cheng will never be accommodating, forcing the princesses to be full of sadness when they hear her name.
"Just say I'm ......" out? Asleep? Stomach ache?
All kinds of excuses swirled in his mouth and swallowed them back, saying that these were useless and would be debunked at once, Liu Yan hung his head and said, "Please come in, Mr. Cheng." ”
As soon as I saw Mr. Cheng and Liu Yan, I had mixed feelings.
Complex is complicated, and the number of etiquette cannot be less.
She saluted, and Mr. Cheng returned the salute.
Seeing her, Liu Yan was hot for her. In this weather, she still covered it tightly, her collar was tightly tied, and she was not afraid of covering the prickly heat.
Mr. Cheng just didn't come well, so he sat down and asked Liu Yan to take out the homework of the past few days.
Can you take it out?
Liu Yan has been patronizing the marriage of her eldest sister in the past few days, and she hasn't written a word!
Seeing her like this, Mr. Cheng's face suddenly sank: "Princess? ”
Liu Yan broke the jar and said honestly: "I didn't write it." ”
I thought I would write it in the next two days, and I could finish it in a hurry. As a result, Tian Lin was troubled, how can he still remember to write?
Mr. Cheng didn't reprimand her, nor was he angry, but calmly instructed Gui Yuan and Ginkgo biloba: "Put away the bookbag and pencil case for the princess." ”
Liu Yan asked, "Why are you cleaning up this?" ”
"The princess is not as quiet here as my Wutong Garden, please move to the Wutong Garden to copy, I will accompany you, and it will be convenient for the princess to ask."
What!
Liu Yan almost didn't jump up!
She was wondering how to prevaricate her homework. As soon as Mr. Cheng left, she went to Princess Fuxi for help. The second sister is very talkative, and she has written homework for her before, and she has learned her handwriting well. Liu Yan can't finish writing in one night, she can finish it in an hour, and there will be no problem asking her for help.
But I didn't expect Mr. Cheng to be so ruthless, and he actually wanted to watch her write. Is this convenient for her to ask? This is clearly regulation! Liu Yan's plan to find someone to ghostwrite was stillborn before it took shape.
Mr. Cheng showed her a smile, and Liu Yan could simply see the cold light on her teeth!
"No, no, no, it's hot......"
"I'm writing the same thing in Anhe Palace......"
"Mr. ......"
It was useless to say anything, Liu Yan was escorted by Mr. Cheng, and walked towards Wutong Garden step by step. There is really no way to ask for heaven and earth, Mr. Cheng wants to discipline her, and even his father and mother will not interfere - Mr. Cheng will not beat and scold her anyway.
But Liu Yan would rather Mr. Cheng beat and scold her!
It's even more terrible not to beat or scold.
Gui Yuan and Ginkgo didn't expect Mr. Cheng to be so stern and glanced at each other. Things have come to this point, and they can't help it, so they have to listen to Mr. Cheng.
Wutong Garden is indeed very quiet, except for sprinkling and sweeping in the morning and evening, only Mr. Cheng and a maidservant girl she brought into the palace live here. The huge courtyard was empty, and a few large sycamore leaves fell on the stone path.
Ginkgo biloba laid the paper, Gui Yuan studied the ink, and retreated out of the door together, Liu Yan felt that this was simply heavier than the copper stick on the martial arts field, and he was about to cry when he thought of the ninety words to be completed.
Can't cry, as soon as you cry, the half-written sheet will be wasted, just in the middle of Mr. Cheng's bad mother-in-law's arms, don't seize this opportunity to punish her?
This is called crying without tears.
She gritted her teeth and wrote.
If she can't finish writing today, she won't be able to go back, and she will have to be detained here to write all night at night. Don't doubt it, Mr. Cheng will definitely do this.
Mr. Cheng is sitting in front of the window drinking tea and reading a book, his back is straight, and although the sitting posture is uncomfortable, it is very pleasing to the eye.
She's not too tired to panic!
Liu Yan had no doubt that she would sit like this when she was alone!
This man has carved both words into his bones.
With Mr. Cheng watching, Liu Yan can't be lazy if he wants to. Mr. Cheng even limited the number of times she drank tea, on the grounds that she always had to relieve herself when she drank too much tea, which was very inconvenient and delayed.
This blocked the way to urinate.
Liu Yan wrote until the time of the palm lamp, and there were still two articles left to finish, and the dinner was also used in Wutong Garden. Gui Yuan and Ginkgo wanted to help her pass the meal, but Mr. Cheng didn't let her, and Liu Yan could only eat the same meal as Mr. Cheng.
I changed her in one go!
Cold bitter gourd, stir-fried soybean sprouts, and old tofu with meat foam are all things she doesn't like to eat. How can anyone love to eat something like bitter gourd? Soybean sprouts and roast pork are still harmonious, what is there to eat in stir-frying? She has never liked old tofu, and she always feels that it smells sour.
By the way, there is also a winter melon soup.
It's hard to describe what you ate for dinner.
Liu Yan was frightened by this dinner.
If you don't write it quickly, you won't be able to leave at night, and I don't know what Mr. Cheng will give her tomorrow!
With this strength to support, although her hands were sore and she couldn't lift it, she still carried the pen like flying, and finished the last two words quickly and well. Not to mention that Longan was surprised, even Liu Yan himself was surprised.
Turns out she can write so fast.
After writing it, when he showed it to Mr. Cheng, Liu Yan was still uneasy in his heart.
What if Mr. Cheng doesn't let her go and asks her to rework and rewrite?
Some of the words she wrote today are quite neat, and some are not good. I didn't feel it when I wrote it, but now I stand aside and look at it, and I feel that the writing on the paper is crooked, and I can't stand up straight as if I am suffering from heat stroke.
Mr. Cheng looked very carefully, changed one after another, and never spoke.
Liu Yan's heart was in his throat, Mr. Cheng put down the last piece of paper and glanced at her: "The princess said herself, how is it written?" ”
Written...... It's okay. Liu Yan said tentatively: "There are a few that are not very good, but most of them I still wrote with my heart." ”
She wanted to say that she wrote well, but Mr. Cheng's eyes were bright, and it was not good for her to brag and talk big. But if she wants to say that she doesn't write well, Liu Yan is not happy, her hands are sore, and she has worked so hard, there should be hard work without merit.
Mr. Cheng hummed, didn't say anything affirmative, but he didn't veto her either.
"Some of them are okay, and most of them don't write with care." Perfunctory errands and carefully written, Mr. Cheng can see at a glance.
