Chapter 85: Release
"How's that, how did Mo'er deal with it." Old Mrs. Jiang, who was lying on the bed, pretended to ask casually.
"The county lord was resolute and resolute, first sold the maids in his yard who received the benefits of Concubine Zhang's side to twenty boards, and then changed the housekeeper and grandmother in Concubine Zhang's courtyard. Several first-class maids were demoted to third-class maids, and they worked as raccoon maids in the washroom. ”
"This girl, after all, is still soft-hearted." Old Taijun Jiang leaned crookedly on the warm collapse and sighed slightly.
"No wonder, after all, the county lord is still young." Mama Jin said with a smile, "The slave maid has seen that the county lord has become more and more stable in the past two years, and I think that when the county lord gets married, it will definitely be better than now." ”
"Hmph, you'll intercede for her." Old Taijun Jiang snorted lightly, and said worriedly: "The Zhang family has become more and more out of proportion in the past few years, and they are so calculating with a little girl. I calculated Mo'er's marriage and dowry before, and now I want to put Mo'er to death, which is really more and more femme fatale, but I'm afraid that Mei'er and Ce'er have been taught badly by him. ”
Mama Jin didn't dare to interject, but listened to the old princess's chatter: "Ce'er's grades are not good, and after being brushed down by Yunlu Academy, she doesn't even go to home school, and she eats and drinks all day long," Mrs. Jiang shook her head and said, "I'm afraid this child will be ruined in the future." ”
"The third young master is still young, only fourteen years old, and he still has time to teach." Mama Jin said with relief.
"That's it, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, if this grandson is really not successful, when I go in the future, the family can ensure that he does not starve to death." …… Mama Jin didn't know how to persuade her, so she had to stand aside and not speak.
"Can't you see that this is Zhang's trick, but Mei'er's marriage will be in February and March next year, and she is an old girl with a lot of thoughts, so it is better to marry out quickly so as not to stay at home is a scourge. It's a pity that Zhang's can't die, if she dies, Mei'er will keep filial piety for three years, and I'm afraid that the marriage will be yellow. ”
"Among so many grandchildren, Xiao'er is sick and weak, Mo'er is cold, Mei'er's intimate mind is crooked now, Xiang'er is timid and cowardly, and Ruyan is the same character. The Zhao family is not a safe person who is ready to move, and even with Xuan'er is too precocious. It's Mao'er, it's good. If the two brothers can support each other in the future, it will be possible for our Zhennan Wangfu to stand for a hundred years. ”
"Xiao Er is going to win the championship next year, right?" The old lady suddenly asked.
"Yes, the prince is now nineteen."
"Then we can look at each other, but I heard that he has any favorite woman?"
"How can the slave know the mind of the prince?" Mama Jin smiled and said, "But you don't have a birthday this year, why don't you stop by next year when you celebrate your birthday?" When the time comes, it is better to ask the prince to let the saint give marriage. ”
"Well, you're right. Mo'er is now studying in the academy, but the New Year will be in a few months, and Shen'er will also come back at that time, so it is good to hold a plum banquet and invite a few young ladies to sit in the house. ”
Mama Jin couldn't bear to disturb Mrs. Jiang's interest, so she let her babble and talk about the third watch, and only when the old princess was sleepy did she gently settle down and retreat.
September 20 is the autumn release list, many people are crowded at the gate of the Gongyuan to watch the list, and Yunlu Academy has special people to see the list.
Lin Chaoying didn't dare to look at the list, so she walked around her room. "Oh, Chaoying, I'm dizzy when you turn around, it's better to sit down and wait for a while, and soon there will be news from the academy."
Lin Chaoying pondered for a while before saying slowly: "Chaoren, you don't know, if I can't pass the martial arts exam this time, my mother said that she will show me the marriage." I don't want to get married yet, I want to be a female general like Sister Jingsa. ”
"By the way, when did you last say that Jing Sa won the battle and was rewarded by the emperor."
"Mid-Autumn Banquet,"
"No, I'm asking, when will you win the battle."
"Oh, you say this, my dad said it was about a month ago." Lin Chaoying sat down and ate the pastries on the table and said, "But it's not surprising, those border towns in the west have always been unstable." When my dad and I were in the West, we would often fight, and I saw a lot. Lin Chaoying said unappetizingly.
"Chaoying, if you win this time, have you ever thought about which army you want to go to?"
"That's naturally the Western Army, I'm most familiar with it, and there's Sister Jingsa here, so I won't be bored! I guess my dad will let me go to the Western Army as well. ”
Nanling Mo was shocked in his heart, and thought about it, "Yun Tianfeng is suspicious, and the most taboo ministers move around each other frequently, especially the important ministers who are in military power. An Guogong is already too expensive, Sister Jing Yi has been sent to Xishu for two years by Princess Rouhui, if Yun Tianfeng is really at ease with Anguo Mansion, he will not transfer General Pingxi back to the capital. I'm afraid that Jing Sa's meritorious service this time is not a good thing, but I'm afraid that Jing Zhu's marriage will be decided soon......
Nan Lingmo was thinking wildly in her heart, and she didn't hear Lin Chaoying call her several times. "What?" Nanling Mo couldn't help but ask.
"Eh, what are you thinking," Lin Chaoying pushed Nan Lingmo's arm, "How long did you say it would take for the list to be released!" ”
"I didn't think about anything, I just envy that you will soon be able to achieve your dreams." Nanling Mo reluctantly smiled, "But Chaoying, it still depends on the emperor's intentions which army to go to, you must not go to General Lin." ”
Lin Chaoying felt puzzled, it was natural for her children to experience in the army, naturally under their noses or in a familiar place. Lin Chaoying was just about to ask, when he heard someone come to report: "The list has been released, the list has been released, the mountain chief asked us to gather at the venue in front of the academy!" ”
"Let's go! The mountain chief has recruited us. Nanling Mo directly pulled Lin Chaoying and walked forward.
Soon two or three hundred people gathered in the open space in the front yard of the academy, all dressed in different colors of clothes, representing different identities. As soon as the mountain chief spoke, the whisperer fell silent.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today's list has come down. Our Yunlu Academy is not the first academy in the Great Yan Kingdom. The champions and tanhua of this literary examination are all from our Yunlu Academy, as well as the fifth place in the palace examination, and the seventh place is also our Yunlu Academy. The champion is Zhao Yuanjia, the son of Deputy Chief Zhao, and Tanhua is Zhou Tao, who studied in Lushan Academy and came to our academy last year. The fifth is Li Antong, and the seventh is Jin Zihan. After the announcement of the 11th to 20th place of the top three jinshi lists, etc., they will be pasted at the notice office of each college. ”
"The second, fifth, and sixth places in the martial arts test are all students from the five academies of our academy, and the fifth place is still a student from the women's academy." As soon as these words came out, the hall was in an uproar. I didn't expect that there would be students from the women's academy applying for the martial arts examination. Even if there are female generals in Dayan Kingdom, female captains are all things of the previous dynasty, and now the new emperor and new dynasty, the only female captain is still the daughter of the Duke of Anguo, and she also relied on the Duke of Anguo to get up, and she passed the martial arts exam to be close to the top ten, and this dynasty is currently the only one.
"Who is it, who is it?" Everyone asked one after another, "Do you think it will be the Lord of Chaoren?" I heard that the county lord has good martial arts. ”
"Not necessarily, I think it may be Lin Chaoying! I once woke up early and saw them fighting! ”
"Tsk, isn't this a gathering of likes."
"Yes, it's just like things gathered, and they are all the same vulgar."
Lin Chaoying was about to explode when she heard it, and was about to go up and scold those girls who chewed the root of her tongue, Nanling Mo quickly grabbed her, shook her head, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, wait until the announcement is over." ”
"Quiet," the chief gestured, and everyone fell silent. "Now announce the ranking of the martial arts test: second place Liu Bocheng, fifth place Lin Chaoying, sixth place Wang Shan. The 11th to 20th places will still be pasted out in the same way as the literary test. The top ten in the literary examination and the top ten in the martial arts examination will enter the palace three days later, and the others will also have a will after five days. ”
"Yes, students obey the teacher's orders." The students replied in unison.
"Hahahahaha, Chaoren, I'm so happy, I'm actually the fifth, hahahahaha! I no longer have to find someone in Beijing to marry according to my mother's wishes. You don't know, Jingli is boring. Lin Chaoying smiled all the way and said, "It's still comfortable in the west." ”
"Huh, vulgar!" Su Qingyan passed by and said this disdainfully.
"Stop! What do you mean!!! Lin Chaoying quickly stepped forward and stopped Su Qingyan.
"It's not interesting, I didn't name me, what's the matter, Miss Lin thinks I said you?" Su Qingyan snorted coldly, "Besides, even if I say you, what I said is not the truth?" Rolling around in the pile of men all day long is shameless! ”
"You!! You!!! Lin Chao trembled with anger and couldn't say a word. Su Qingyan saw that she was so angry, and turned her head proudly and left.
"Stop," Princess Rong Zhen said from behind, "Apologize." ”
"Why did I apologize to her, I didn't name her, besides, even if I said her, which one did I say wrong? I'm telling the truth, even if the emperor is here, I can't say anything, does the eldest princess want to oppress people with her identity? The rules of our academy are the same. ”
The eldest princess Rong Zhen had never seen such a thing, and she was stunned for a while. Nan Lingmo walked up from behind, pulled the two down, and replied word by word: "Miss Su is wrong in what she said, although Lord Yushi admonished the emperor and consulted the mistakes of hundreds of officials, but at least Lord Yushi is an official and plots his affairs in his position." Presumably, Miss Su still doesn't know what the saint means after three days, so I'll explain it to you. ”
"After the Wuju Enke opened the trial list, the first three people were the top players in the list, and they were directly assigned by the imperial court to enter the Hanlin Academy, although the official quality was not high, but it was indeed an important talent who entered the six departments in the future. The second class is the fourth to the tenth, after the assessment, except for a few people who entered the Hanlin Academy, most of them entered the six departments, and the third class is the tenth to the twentieth if I understand it well, it should be released as an official, the twenty-first to fifty have the official body of the jinshi, no matter how it is distributed in the future, it is determined by the imperial court, and the civil and military affairs are roughly the same, that is to say, Miss Lin is now an official, where does the white body of a three-grade imperial historian come from to insult the imperial court officials? ! Do you know what the crime of insulting the court officials should be? The so-called big husband cultivates himself and the Qi family rules the country and the world, it seems that Su Yushi's second step is really not very good, it is better to be the eldest princess, you go back to the palace in two days and ask the emperor, a royal history that even the Qi family can't do, is it still possible to make a royal history. ”
"Seventh sister-in-law, I have memorized everything you said, and I will write an excerpt to return to the palace later, and write Miss Su's actions clearly, so that the imperial brother can see how his family is taught by the imperial historian."
Su Qingyan heard Nanling Mo and the eldest princess Rong Zhen say this, and hit his heart sentence by sentence, his face turned white layer by layer, and finally heard that his father was unable to do the imperial history, so he was suddenly frightened and sat down on the ground. Just as the three of them were about to leave, they reacted and hurriedly grabbed the corner of Nan Lingmo's clothes and said, "County Lord, I was wrong, I was really wrong, I don't dare anymore......"
"Miss Su, I think you are mistaken, the person you offended is not me." Nanling Mo glanced at Lin Chaoying, and pulled the corner of her skirt out of Su Qingyan's hand with her hand.
Su Qingyan's brain reacted quickly at this time, and hurriedly cried to Lin Chaoying: "Miss Lin, I'm sorry, I was wrong, I don't dare anymore, you forgive me!" For the sake of us being classmates, please raise your noble hand, I will never dare to do it again in the future. ”
Lin Chaoying's heart softened, seeing Su Qingyan's crying pear blossoms with rain, and she was scared like this, so she softened her heart: "Okay, okay, I don't blame you, you get up!" ”
The eldest princess Rong Zhen suddenly had a plan, and said with a wicked smile: "Miss Su, this princess can not tell the imperial brother about this matter, but please apologize to Miss Lin in public in class tomorrow, otherwise, this princess will let the imperial brother personally order you to apologize." ”
"Yes, yes, the courtiers know."
