Chapter Ninety-Three: The First Talented Woman
"Jiang ...... Jiangnan's first talented 'woman'?! "Zhuo Zhaojie almost bit his tongue!
Min Pinghou said lightly: "It turns out that you don't know it yourself?" Chang'an spread all over the night, the Tao is two days ago on the bank of the Qujiang River there is a talented 'woman' from the south of the Yangtze River, the talent is quick, and the ink scene is in one go into seven unique 'flower' poems, not only to help the prime minister Shi Jinzhang's eldest grandson 'daughter' to win the 'Yu Ji' Yan 'outfit' a basin, so that the little lady from the Hou clan is willing to bow down after the view, and leave without a word, but also wake up several scholars who were watching at that time, from the original fear of the next year's 'spring' talent like a cloud, to now rushing to sign up...... Now the sentence 'disdain for plum chrysanthemum to avoid 'flowers' has spread all over Chang'an, and even the palace has heard of it, that poem you gave to Shi Jinzhang's granddaughter', and now someone has offered 100 gold to buy, but it is still rejected, it is said that the pen and ink books you used to write poems that day were sold at a high price......"
Zhuo Zhao's program was stunned!
"How so?!" At that time, although there were a few people such as the cloth cloth scholar who tried their best to praise the song "Yu Ji's 'Yan' outfit", but Zhuo Zhaojie only happened to touch their hearts, and was complacent for a while, and then forgot about it, after all, she has always been passable, and she thinks that she can't learn in general, and it is impossible to be dizzy when a stranger praises it, and she really poured Pan Jiang when her poem pressed Lu Hai, and now when she heard Min Pinghou say this, she just didn't know what to say!
If it wasn't Minpinghou who said this, Minpinghou's grandfather had never been very affectionate to his grandchildren, and he didn't even stay in the Hou Mansion often, waiting for her here today, it was definitely impossible to be funny, she would never believe it!
Min Pinghou said: "You don't know at all? ”
Zhuo Zhaojie shook his head: "I was sick two days ago, and I only came back from outside today, and I haven't heard such rumors." ”
"That's it." Marquis Min Ping groaned for a moment and said, "Then when did you meet that Lu Hanbing?" ”
This time, Zhuo Zhaojie was even more dazed: "Grandfather, it's the first time I've heard of Lu Hanbing's name. ”
She didn't know about her questions one after another, and Min Pinghou couldn't help but 'show' a trace of astonishment, and thought for a while: "It is said that after you wrote a poem by the Qujiang River, you woke up a scholar on the spot and announced that you would change your mind and participate in the examination of Ming 'Spring', but is there such a thing?" ”
Zhuo Zhaojie nodded hesitantly.
Marquis Min Ping said: "That scholar is Lu Hanbing. ”
Zhuo Zhaojie listened to the following.
Marquis Minping groaned for a moment before continuing: "He is from Henan, or is he from Xie Yuan. ”
Zhuo Zhaojie's eyes widened suddenly, and he said, "Hey, then he deceives people, since he is a township test to solve the yuan, where will he not dare to end?" ”
"No, he didn't lie." Min Pinghou said calmly, "This Lu Hanbing really didn't sign up at first, and even planned to return to his hometown after the 'flower' meeting was over, but after evaluating your poem, he went to make up the name." ”
He glanced at his granddaughter, "Do you know why he didn't dare to report for next year's subject with Xie Yuan's body?" ”
Zhuo Zhaojie shook his head.
"Because the people who ended up with Ming Ke were Shi Yafeng, the eldest grandson of Shi Jinzhang, as well as Mu Kongyao of Shao Guogong's Mansion, Ruan Yunshu of the Ruan family, and Wen Bai, the son of Wen Ruyi...... These people are already famous in Chang'an, and after they are high-ranking officials and eunuchs, there is even no shortage of relatives. Min Pinghou said slowly, "When Lu Hanbing first arrived in Chang'an, he was very excited when he heard that he was taking the exam with these people, but then he was reminded...... There will be a palace test after the examination! That's when it's time for the proper ranking! ”
Zhuo Zhaojie couldn't help but say: "Is he worried that the saint will suppress his ranking because of the background of Shi Erlangjun and others?" ”
Min Pinghou said lightly: "It's not that I'm worried, it's for sure, the saint is old, and most of these people are the heroes of this dynasty, and after the old ones, the saints are now very nostalgic." ”
He also ignored the suspicious and confused look of his granddaughter, and went on to say, "Shi Jinzhang wanted to be a scholar a few years ago, but he was left behind by the saint, he was a little dissatisfied with the water and soil of Chang'an like your grandfather, and he still couldn't adapt to it after many years, although he was treated by the prime minister, but he still fell ill, and it was impossible for the saint not to compensate him, and it was really good to say that Shi Yafeng was really good...... Wen Ruyi is similar, Mu Kongyao is the son of Shao Guogong, and Shao Guogong's sister is the current crown princess, who is the eldest daughter-in-law that the queen likes very much, and she must speak for the children of the Mu family, and Shizi Fan is proud to 'befriend' with the king of Zhending County, and he is also among the people taken care of by the queen and the Mu family...... The others are similar, so even if this Lu Hanbing will try to win the championship, when it comes to the palace test, the three head armor must have nothing to do with him, this person is arrogant, and he swore to win the name of the head armor before he arrived in Chang'an! ”
Min Pinghou looked at his grandson', "Therefore, he would rather avoid this subject, do you think such a person will be moved by a poem by a little lady like you?" ”
Zhuo Zhaojie heard the doubt and contempt in his tone, his face suddenly turned red, and he paused for a moment before biting his 'lip' and said: "I didn't know this person before, but now my grandfather said who it was, and I may not be able to recognize him when I see that Lu Shizi again, as for whether he was moved by my poem and changed his mind, or just used this as an excuse for other reasons, how do I know?" ”
Min Pinghou said lightly: "So the behavior he bragged about for you in the crowd was not instructed by you?" ”
"Of course not!" Zhuo Zhaojie was young, and when he heard this, he felt deeply humiliated, clenched his fists slightly, and said angrily, "I don't know him at all!" Besides, that day I went to visit the Hibiscus Garden and see the peony 'flower', where would I have thought that I would meet the lady and Chun Yu Niangzi fighting for the 'flower', and I was dragged into the water just standing next to me? At that time, in full view of everyone, if I or the people around me colluded with that Lu Hanbing, wouldn't many people see it? Although I am too lazy to build, my grandfather's 'temperament' is upright and noble, and he still disdains such 'fakes'! ”
She raised her chin slightly and said, "Besides, if I care about such a talent, when I was in Jiangnan in the past, I respected my grandfather very much since Taishou and below, and all cousins and cousins also had classmates and friends, why didn't I try to 'get' such a talented 'girl' name in Jiangnan?" My grandfather really underestimated me! ”
Min Pinghou said indifferently: "So everything is a coincidence. His eyes flickered, "But how did you talk to me?!" ”
Zhuo Zhaojie was frightened by his sudden severity, paused, and dissatisfaction rose in his heart, so he was silent, but he refused to say anything to plead guilty.
Fortunately, Zhuo Ye, who led Zhuo Zhaojie over, was in the round next to him, and said: "Why should the prince be angry, Xiao Qi Niang has poetry and books in her belly, and she has a reputation with real skills and luck, and she was asked by the prince if she 'made' fraud, and she was naturally wronged, Xiao Qi Niang is young, and there are people who are in a hurry to say a grievance, which also shows Xiao Qi Niang's talent, worthy of being the grandson of the prince 'daughter', a good person!" ”
I was raised by my grandfather and grandmother, and the poetry and etiquette were all taught by the You family.
Zhuo Zhaojie heard Zhuo Ye give all the credit for his current fame to Minping Hou, but he didn't mention You Ruoheng at all, and snorted secretly in his heart.
Min Pinghou also said hesitantly: "She was raised by Meipei, I haven't taught her a word, what does it matter to me that she is talented and talented?" ”
Saying this, Min Pinghou also collected some 'color' in the end, and said to Zhuo Zhaojie, "Although your grandfather is not good at being an official, but his talent to teach you is really useless, this is really because he loves your mother to look at you differently, I don't care if you have learned in the past or not, in short, since you have won the name of this talented 'girl' from the south of the Yangtze River this time, you have been praised to a high place, and now you are going to be humble and pretentious to make people disgusted and suspicious, so you must try to maintain this talent." The name of the woman, so as not to lose my face, let people say that your grandfather taught an embroidered 'flower' straw bag for more than ten years, and spread it to Jiangnan, laughing to death a group of people in Jiangnan! ”
Zhuo Zhaojie was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes." ”
"Do you know what to do?" Min Pinghou twitched his eyelids and asked coldly.
Zhuo Zhaojie thought about it, but couldn't answer for a while, Minping Hou snorted coldly: "Knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing, your perfunctory words to the elders are good!" ”
Seeing that Sun 'Daughter' lowered her head with a flushed face, Min Pinghou said again, "If you don't know how to pretend to understand, you will only let people see your shallowness!" It also disgusts the elders...... I learned to be so slippery at a young age...... Mei Pei really spoiled you! You can't blame him entirely, you don't have the surname You in the end! ”
Zhuo Ye said again: "The prince loves Xiao Qi Niang, and he deliberately mentions that a certain family should not 'insert' this mouth, but ...... The day before yesterday, the prince and the marquis of Dunyuan made an appointment to meet at the other courtyard to discuss matters at the other court......"
Only then did Min Pinghou snort: "Okay, from today on, you will follow me, and I will personally assign and guide your homework!" Be sure to make the name of a talented 'woman' worthy of the name as soon as possible, rather than a fluke! If you are lazy, you will be dealt with by family law! Got it? ”
Zhuo Zhaojie was dizzy for a while, but he didn't expect that Min Pinghou didn't mention his dealings with Ning Shaobi, let alone mention that he deliberately injured his aunt, but in order to keep his reputation as a 'woman', he rushed back, and now he actually has to personally ask and supervise his homework - but now he can only stubbornly say: "Yes!" ”
Min Pinghou looked up at the sky, and said: "You go and pack up your things, follow me to Yongxingfang in a while, don't bring any classics there, there are as many in Yongxingfang, you can bring the pen and ink you are used to, your hands and feet are neat, I made an appointment to discuss things in the afternoon, don't tell me to wait longer!" ”
Speaking of the last sentence, Min Pinghou's face was uncertain, and he obviously had a lot of opinions about the slowness of his grandson's daughter.
Zhuo Zhaojie said helplessly: "Follow my grandfather's order!" ”
She reluctantly retired and went to the fourth room to pack up her things, and then she came back from Ruan's house, and she was going to move out again, speaking of coming to Chang'an these days, Jinghonglou had only lived for a few days? First the Nu 'Chun' Garden, then the Ruan family, and now Yongxing Fang...... The tragic thing is that my grandfather called me with me, is it really to supervise my homework and not make me weak, so that I am called a 'woman'?
Or does he have other plans?
The problem is that even if Min Pinghou is just a simple supervisor of his homework - the first talented 'woman' in Jiangnan!!
This reputation is also too big, not to mention that Jiangnan people have always been talented and talented 'women' in an endless stream, when they were in Jiangnan, few people knew that they suddenly got such a name in Chang'an, Jiangnan was not convinced, Princess Changle's only love 'daughter', Su Taishi's grandson 'daughter' Su Yuyan is the first talented 'daughter' in Chang'an who became famous a few years ago, although her name is Jiangnan, but now she is in Chang'an, even if she doesn't provoke, but there are always idlers who want to compare the two of them.
Will Su Yuyan be 'excited' but compare herself with herself, she is the princess's 'daughter', look at Princess Yikang and Ning Shaobi's style, you can know the superiority of these princes and grandchildren, even if Su Yuyan does not rely on the power of her elders, she was born and raised in Chang'an, where is the deep-rooted where can she compare with her newcomer?
Those in-laws of the Su family's royal family, who knows if they will happen to bump into themselves, and what kind of banquet or trip will they make trouble for themselves in the future? Although his grandfather is the Marquis of Minping, he can't compare with the princess and the princess!
Even though Zhuo Zhaojie, who has always been favored and grew up, may not be afraid of the provocation of others, the point is that the battle between talented and 'female' is naturally in talent!
Zhuo Zhaojie knows her own family affairs, although she has not read Su Yuyan's poems, but the imperial capital of Chang'an, the world's scholars are gathered, and there are many capable people, and even more in the south of the Yangtze River, she can occupy the name of the first talented 'woman' in such a place for many years, how can Su Yuyan be a vain person!
Now that Minping Hou wants her to keep the reputation of this first talented 'girl', how hard should she be recognized for herself?
This grandfather is so strict, let alone You Ruoheng if he doesn't feel emotional, I'm afraid Zhuo Fangli is not as good as him - in the days to come, can he only study hard with the lamp every night?
…… I can't get the top prize!!
Zhuo Zhaojie 'wants' to cry without tears.
