Chapter 291: Deliberately making things difficult
Scholar Wang and Prime Minister Xie Cheng are also ranked first among civil officials, but their political views are different, and the two do not deal with each other in the court, and now in Huangyi Academy, Wang Lingxi and Xie Yunjin naturally can't get together.
When Wang Lingxi saw Xie Yunjin coming, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, and he mocked Xie Yunjin.
"Now that I'm bound to get the cards this time, you still don't want to compete with me!"
"I'll give you back this sentence." Xie Yunjin just glanced at Wang Lingxi lightly, and said very arrogantly.
At this moment, an old man dressed in a long robe and dressed as a Confucian appeared with a group of guards, and what attracted Xie Qingyu's attention was that some men in palace clothes with feminine faces also followed the guards and walked from the side of the hall to the front.
"Meet Academician Fang!"
Immediately afterwards, all the ladies in the main hall bent down to Academician Fang in front of them.
"I want you to come today to announce something." Academician Fang waved his hand slightly, and said the reason for gathering these ladies.
At this moment, Xie Yunjin had no expression of surprise at all, and what happened next made Xie Qingyu understand the real purpose of Xie Yunjin bringing them here today.
Academician Fang leaned over slightly and said to the man standing aside.
"Father-in-law Zhang, you can make a decree."
"That's fine." Gonggong Zhang nodded at Academician Fang with a sharp voice, and then stepped forward.
Gonggong Zhang immediately stretched out his hand to the palace people behind him, and the palace people were very obedient and immediately walked forward slowly from behind, holding a tray in his hand, on which there was a bright yellow scroll, but it was different from the texture of the emperor's holy decree, it was a scroll with a phoenix pattern, but it was all luxurious and extraordinary.
"Spread the queen's will!" Gonggong Zhang then picked up the scroll, turned it slightly, and shouted loudly to the crowd in the audience.
Immediately afterwards, everyone in the audience knelt down to the Yi Zhi in the hands of Gonggong Zhang, and Xie Qingyu also quickly knelt down.
"Passing on the queen's mother's will, there are all the ladies of the Huangyi Academy, showing their wisdom and outstanding etiquette, coinciding with the period of the Shengshang's birthday banquet in two months, and now the palace has granted the best of the Huangyi Academy the right to prepare for His Majesty's birthday banquet with the right to co-ordinate, and I admire this."
"The courtiers take the order!"
After everyone heard Yi's decree, they shouted in unison, and then everyone slowly got up, showing the beautiful demeanor of Huangyi Academy.
"Please also ask the ladies not to live up to the queen's trust."
"There are a lot of affairs in our palace, so I left first." Gonggong Zhang said a few words to everyone again, and then said to Academician Fang.
"The matter has been announced, you all go down and prepare, the date of this cultural fight is scheduled for January, and the detailed affairs will be posted on the hospital list later." After Academician Fang saw that Gonggong Zhang was gone, he told everyone about the specific time.
As soon as the words fell, Academician Fang didn't stop any longer and left.
Academician Fang is the judge of this literary fight, in order to avoid the investigation of the ladies below, it is also necessary to avoid suspicion.
Xie Qingyu also understood the gist of the decree after listening to it, it seems that the queen mother is going to choose people in Huangyi Academy, and if nothing else, she is still preparing for the birthday banquet of the emperor today, this is a big matter, no wonder Xie Yunjin will come to Huangyi Academy today.
Xie Qingyu thought so, but he noticed a rather vicious gaze from the opposite side, Xie Qingyu immediately looked over, and it happened to meet Xue Manzhu's eyes.
The four eyes are facing each other, and the smoke and fire of war inside are self-evident.
And at this moment, the position where Xue Manzhu is standing is not far from Wang Lingxi's lower position, it seems that the Mobei Xue family is standing on the side of Wang Daxue.
"Manjoo, what's going on?" Wang Lingxi also noticed Xue Manzhu's strangeness at this moment, and opened his mouth to ask.
"Sister Ling Xi, that person is the one who embarrassed me in the academy that day, but I didn't expect that a nobody like her would throw herself under Xie Yunjin's door." Xue Manzhu listened to Wang Lingxi's words, and was even more resentful in his heart, and replied angrily.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Lingxi also turned his gaze to Xie Qingyu, and found that it was very eye-catching, and snorted coldly and said to Xue Manzhu.
"She's just a little person, you can't deal with it?"
"She followed Qin Zixuan by her side that day, but now she is standing by Xie Yunjin's side, I really can't see through her." Xue Manzhu listened to Wang Lingxi's words, and her anger was even worse, if it weren't for Qin Zixuan's identity that day, she would definitely not be afraid of a mere Xie light rumor.
Qin Zixuan is also unique in this Huangyi Academy, as a general, he doesn't like to fight, he is mostly neutral, almost different from Wang Lingxi, Xie Yunjin and others, but behind it is the Qin family, the general of the Zhenguo, and there are many generals, most of the sons of the Qin family have already ascended to the position of general, and Qin Zixuan is even more daring to provoke.
And Qin Zixuan is also neutral There is also a young lady of the family, that is, the youngest daughter of the Yun family, Yun Nishang, Yun Nishang and Qin Zixuan's neutrality method is different, Yun Nishang has the best popularity in Huangyi Academy, but her body is weak and generally does not appear in front of people.
"Xie Yunjin, I looked at the few people around you, but I had never seen them before." Wang Lingxi listened to Xue Manzhu's words, and was a little curious about Xie Qingyu, who could have a relationship with a character like Qin Zixuan.
"These are the two ladies from Jiangnan who entered Beijing this time, Xie Youran and Xie Qingyu, both of whom are from my Xie family." Xie Yunjin suddenly heard Wang Lingxi's words, and a hint of danger crossed her eyes, knowing that Wang Lingxi was going to find fault this time, so she opened her mouth immediately.
She instructed the two of them before, just because she was afraid that Wang Lingxi would deliberately embarrass them and make them lose the face of the Xie family, but now it seems that she is reminding them right.
Xie Yunjin thought that Wang Lingxi was because she fought too much with her on weekdays, but she didn't think it was the two of them themselves.
"You are Xie Qingyu, I heard that you have been in the limelight in the academy for the past few days?" Wang Lingxi immediately turned his gaze to Xie Qingyu's body and said with a contemptuous expression.
A few days ago, Xue Manzhu's disgrace had already spread throughout the academy, and together with Xue Manzhu were Xie Qingyu and Qin Zixuan, Qin Zixuan Everyone already knew, but Xie Qingyu was just a new girl, and she was full of trouble as soon as she came, and Xue Manzhu was cleaned up.
"It's the courtier, I don't dare to take it seriously, it's just that I can't help when I see injustice." Xie replied without being humble or arrogant.
"You're smart, no wonder." Wang Lingxi nodded when he heard this, and said in a strange way.
No wonder Xue Manzhu is planted in your hands! Speaking so well, the events of the day seemed to outsiders to be Xue Manzhu's fault, and there was almost no mistake in Xie Qingyu, but since she provoked her, she had to pay some price anyway.
Why not? Xie Yunjin also looked at the two of them with a puzzled look on her face at this moment.
"How many female officials are you two?" Wang Lingxi then asked the two of them contemptuously.
"Zheng Liupin."
"From the sixth grade."
Xie Qingyu and Xie Youran both bowed their heads and replied.
"It sounds good in such a small place as Jiangnan, but right now it's the capital, but it's a six-grade female official, and she can't even salute when she sees me as a third-grade person!"
Wang Lingxi listened to the words of the two, and the ridicule in his heart was even worse, but he thought that the two of them were members of the Xie family, and his eyes turned, and he immediately changed his words and held him accountable.
"You!" Xie Yunjin didn't expect Wang Lingxi to suddenly attack, for fear that something would go wrong, but she made a mistake in such a trivial matter.
It stands to reason that Xie Qingyu and Xie Youran are both sixth-grade female officials, and it is true that they have to salute when they meet a high-grade female official, but the women of the academy can generally be dispensed with, so most of the etiquette is applicable to the palace.
"What, am I wrong?" Wang Lingxi looked at Xie Yunjin's deflated appearance, raised her eyebrows, and said proudly.
"The courtiers have seen a high-grade female official!"
Xie Qingyu and Xie Youran reacted quickly, and immediately bent down towards Wang Lingxi and bowed.
It's just that after a while, Wang Lingxi didn't give an order to let the two of them get up, and the two of them couldn't stand bending over for a long time, and their bodies began to tremble, but they still didn't move.
Xue Manzhu looked at the punished Xie Qingyu in the audience, and was even more proud in his heart, see if you dare to be so arrogant in the future?
"The two of them came to the academy for the first time, and they weren't very used to it, but now that the ceremony is done, shouldn't they get up?" Xie Yunjin saw that Wang Lingxi was actually in front of everyone, embarrassing the two of them and the Xie family, and immediately started a round.
"Okay, you two get up, I won't care about you for Yun Jin's sake today." Wang Lingxi watched Xie Yunjin take the initiative to beg her, and she was even more proud in her heart, and said disdainfully to the two.
"It's not that I said, Yun Jin, you have to discipline the etiquette of your subordinates, if you send me to discipline it on my behalf, I will definitely not care about the feelings of the clan, now Your Majesty's birthday banquet is coming, I think you still don't want to participate, educate your subordinates well, and then come out."
Immediately afterwards, Wang Lingxi walked straight out of the main hall, and a rather clear voice resounded throughout the hall, and then there was uncontrollable laughter.
Xie Yunjin was even more angry when she heard this, and her eyes were full of anger when she looked at Xie Qingyu.
Then he didn't say a word, and walked away.
Xie Youran looked at Xie Qingyu coldly, and also left.
The crowd watching the excitement saw that the main lord had finished, and they also left the hall one after another.
Xie Qingyu didn't expect that a single Xue Manzhu would set up such a strong enemy for herself, but now she is at odds with Xie Yunjin, and it doesn't hurt to have one more, after all, she didn't come here to be a female official.
Having said that, she didn't see Qin Zixuan in the hall today, and seeing that everyone on stage today was eager to try, why didn't Qin Zixuan seem to be interested in this matter.
Xie Qingyu thought so, and walked out of the hall with his already stiff waist.
Before he took a few steps out of the main hall, Qin Zixuan's familiar voice sounded in his ears.
"What's the matter, but the will is out?"
"Zixuan, you didn't go, you can guess Yi Zhi?" Xie Qingyu was also surprised at this moment, Qin Zixuan didn't even enter the main hall, how could he know the content.
"The queen's decree has already moved, but today is just to say the exact time, and those ladies who went there just wanted to show their faces in front of the queen." Qin Zixuan smiled mysteriously, and then explained to Xie Qingyu.
Father-in-law Zhang is not an ordinary father-in-law, he is a celebrity around the queen, and he is the eyeliner of the queen.
"That Wang Lingxi must have a grudge against me because of Xue Manzhu." Then Xie Qingyu talked about Wang Lingxi to Qin Zixuan again.
