In the second scene, the comparison is a painting, which is more laborious and time-consuming than a poem, in order not to let Wu Jinghong wait for a long time, Li Guangnian proposed that Wu Jinghong also participate, or send a representative to participate.

"Your Highness attended? So how do you evaluate the painting? Green Mang glared anxiously.

"Heh, this Second Master Li really has a bit of brains." Wu Jinghong shook his head with a smile, in order to ensure that he won the second game, so he proposed this, as long as she participated, who would dare to judge her as not the first?

"What does Your Highness mean?"

"Qingya, you go. You are good at all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and you have practiced since you were a child. Wu Jinghong waved his hand, calling Lin Qingya very naturally, and he was not ashamed of just treating others as a color head.

But this time, Lin Qingya didn't have any complaints, just like Wu Jinghong said, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are commonplace for her, not to mention how much she has learned and how long she has practiced, this speed is definitely the fastest.

Lin Qingya went to the test table downstairs, and several people in the Qinxin Building had different thoughts, but they all looked downstairs with appropriate smiles.

Lin Qingya's mother Zhang smiled from the bottom of her heart, but she hid a trace of pride, she glanced at Guo from the corner of her eye, and her smile became more and more beautiful.

"Did Xiaoyin go with Miss?" Zhang asked the maid behind him.

"Madam, the young lady came to the stage alone, and it is said that there is no rule for bringing maids." The little maid whispered in Zhang's ear.

"Oh, then who's grinding for Miss? Ya'er is the most particular about painting, and every stroke is a rule, if there is no competent person to help, it will not be many grades lower than usual! Zhang was anxious and leaned over to look at the test bench.

"Mrs. Prime Minister doesn't need to worry, since the comparison is not only skill but also speed, then this palace believes that Qingya has her own way to solve it." Wu Jinghong frowned slightly, interrupting Zhang's seizure.

Zhang immediately stopped talking, and nodded to Wu Jinghong again and again.

Guo Shi on the other side glanced over, his expression was a little angry, and he quickly glared at his daughter-in-law Cao.

Cao gently hugged his lower abdomen and smiled softly and lovely, as if he didn't notice the undercurrent of these two.

Qingmang and Lumang glanced at each other, Lumang curled his lips and snickered, and Qingmang continued to stay behind Wu Jinghong without squinting.

In the second round of the painting competition, they waited for half an hour before they came to the top ten works in the audition.

Lin Qingya came up with the person who carried the painting, and said confidently, "Please take a look at Your Highness." ”

As with the poems, the paintings unfold one after another in front of the eyes of Wu Jinghong, and the paintings with the theme of "mountain scenes" are very interesting, and many people seem to have been inspired by the title of the poem, and they have developed into a deeper meaning.

"Your Highness, it's his again." Lu Mang pouted at a painting, "It seems that the slave maid was not wrong just now, so why is that head so familiar." ”

"I don't know how he got out." Wu Jinghong shook his head, held up Wang Jiu's painting and looked at it carefully, he couldn't help but wonder a little in his heart, he himself had said that Shuo Guo was very strict with his whereabouts, how could he let him come to Yun Guo at this time?

"Bai Qiang and Bai Wei brothers and sisters are also shortlisted again." Cao Shi said softly, "My grandfather once said that in fact, if you talk about real talent and real learning, the folk women are not as good as the two brothers and sisters of the Bai family!" ”

"Xu is Cao Guogong is modest, and the Bai family brothers and sisters are indeed very talented." Wu Jinghong nodded with satisfaction, and had some consideration in his heart.

Cao pursed his lips and chuckled, but said nothing. Guo Shi leaned at her side, and the sound of anger was almost impossible to hide, but she still pretended not to notice, as steady as Mount Tai, and her eyes only looked at the direction of Wu Jinghong. Seeing that Wu Jinghong seemed to be more interested in Wang Jiu's painting, he continued, "It's just that I don't know where this prince came from, I have never heard of it before, and the others are all famous." ”

"This? Hehe! Wu Jinghong chuckled and said, "This prince is an old friend of the palace and a talented person. ”

"Oh? His Royal Highness really knows people. Cao Shi accompanied the dance and smiled, and secretly gave the maid a look, and the maid nodded and went out quietly.

"Humph!" Guo Shi snorted suddenly, and stood up quickly, "Your Highness, the woman feels a little unwell, so she will retire first." ”

Wu Jinghong raised his eyelids and responded gently, not paying attention, Guo walked quickly to the door, and turned around to glare at Cao. When everyone didn't see it, Cao's low-pitched eyebrows were raised slightly, and his gaze stabbed at Guo sharply.

Guo Shi leaned down, almost rushing over, Shengsheng was dragged by the maid behind her, she shook her sleeves fiercely, and continued to walk out quickly.

"That abominable poisonous woman! Even Her Royal Highness the princess dared to bewitch! ”

"Ma'am, be quiet!"

"Phew! Why did you let that poisonous woman come today? Didn't you tell Da Lang to let her be locked up in the house to raise a baby? Yes? You're going to be eye-catching in front of me, aren't you? It's definitely not Da Lang's idea, it's that poisonous woman, it must be her! As soon as she walked to the corner of the corridor downstairs in Qinxin, Guo Shi stopped angrily, fortunately she knew that there were many people today, so she didn't dare to shout loudly.

"Madam, you dissipate your anger, if you are really angry, after returning home today, you can find someone to give a message to the eldest son, so that the eldest grandmother will raise a baby in the house in the future and not go out." The maid is anxious and afraid, today is indeed not a good place to say such angry words in this poetry pavilion, who knows where someone will suddenly come out?

"That's right! This poisonous woman should be locked up in the house, don't come out and be embarrassed! Guo's breath had just calmed down, and he remembered something, "Tell me, does she still have my mother in her eyes?" Yes? Upstairs, she didn't even look at me squarely! Look at the wife of the prime minister, look at the mother and daughter, why didn't the girl sit down in a grand place? What if she's pregnant? She didn't do the same filial piety! ”

"Yes, it's the big grandma who did it wrong." While soothing this Guo family, the maid also stared around vigilantly.

"It's not right! She is very unfilial! Guo Shi took a breath, hurriedly took two steps and stopped, "You said, although Da Lang is not my own child, I have been so good to him since I was a child, what is the difference between Ji Erlang?" This, this is just marrying a young lady from a national family, why don't you even recognize your mother? ”

The little maid lowered her head, she didn't dare to talk nonsense about the words of this eldest son, and Mrs. couldn't take it if she could say it, and Mrs. would complain about her when she thought about it.

"Hey, what a misfortune for the family! No matter what, you can't behave like this in Her Royal Highness the Princess, right? Tell me about it, don't you? Guo Shi said that he was so angry that he was sad, and seeing that tears were about to come out, the maid said hurriedly, "Madam, there are many people in the Poetry Book Pavilion today, let's go back to the house first, right?" ”

Guo Shi pressed the corner of his eyes with a handkerchief, and nodded sadly, "Yes, when I go back to the house, I told His Highness that I am not feeling well, so let's go back to the house first!" ”

The maid helped Guo's family, just took a few steps and turned a corner, and then met Li Guangnian with a dignified face, the maid panicked, and was so frightened that she shook her hands and buried her head and said, "Second son!" ”

"Jiro?" Guo Shi didn't pay attention to Li Guangnian's face when he saw him a step later, and only felt that the sorrow just now was covered up by the handsome son in front of him, "Erlang, why are you here?" Aren't you the organizer today? ”

"Oh, mother, in fact, I just went upstairs to take a turn, and my sister-in-law told me that you were not feeling well and left first, I was a little worried so I came to take a look." Li Guangnian took the maid's arm and walked back with Guo in his arms, "Mother, have you been wronged?" It's good in the morning, why is it suddenly not good now? Would you like to call a doctor to take a look? ”

"Hey, you don't need to call a doctor, my mother is fine, but I'm really angry there, so I excused myself." Guo Shi felt a little aggrieved again as he spoke, and pressed the corner of his eyes with a handkerchief, "Erlang, what's the matter with your sister-in-law?" Didn't you say that she should not leave the house? This is still a pregnant person, who let her come? ”

"Mother, it was my father who said that he wanted to find someone to accompany Her Royal Highness the princess, and the son thought about it and couldn't let his mother be tired alone, so he found the eldest brother and brought the sister-in-law." Li Guangnian lowered his head and looked at Guo sincerely, "Mother, is it the sister-in-law who upsets you?" Mother, sister-in-law is also pregnant, she is pregnant with the flesh and blood of our Li family in her belly, maybe she is the eldest grandson of you and your father. ”

Guo's maid understood something, trembled, and glanced at Li Guangnian timidly, but was frightened by Li Guangnian's gloomy gaze and buried her head deeper.

"What eldest grandson, Erlang, you are the eldest son, this eldest grandson should be your son!" Guo's tears immediately stopped, and the handkerchief pressed on the back of Li Guangnian's hand, "Erlang, your father values you very much now, and you yourself are also a good person, my mother saw her sitting next to Her Royal Highness the princess today, and Her Royal Highness is very satisfied with your arrangement, this is your future!" Erlang, your father said that you fell in love with the daughter of the prime minister's family, right? Mother also saw it today, that is a good girl, not only versatile, but also very sensible, I don't know how many times better than your sister-in-law! ”

Guo Shi said and glanced upstairs, "Erlang, otherwise, as soon as today passes, tomorrow my mother will personally go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to help you ask for a word, and my mother sees that the Prime Minister's wife is also a well-informed person, and they have all seen you today, Mother will ask them what their impression of you is, and then we will find a matchmaker to come to the door to ask for marriage." Erlang, your marriage has to be hurried, and your mother is also looking forward to the eldest grandson of the Li family! ”

Li Guangnian's eyes changed, and he responded with a smile, "What my mother said is indeed a good way, so let's do what my mother says!" "As for my father's previous probing to the old prime minister, let's just treat it as if it doesn't exist! Li Guangnian's eyes darkened, and he continued to smile, "But mother, you can't leave the stage early today, after all, you are accompanying Her Royal Highness the Princess, we have to make a good impression in front of Her Royal Highness, but we can't give all the credit to my sister-in-law!" ”
