Regarding the last time Yingyang Zhenren selected students, it has been traced back to thirteen years ago, although at that time the first emperor Dezong was in power, Shangqingguan was a place where many famous disciples and literati and scholars competed to meet, but the sensation of the disciples was not as good as this time, this is not to say that the teacher Yingyang was not valued by the nobles at that time, all because the last time it was only out of Yingyang's personal wishes, all according to Yingyang's preferences, and the result did not need to be explained to others, and there was no such thing as fairness or not.

Unlike this time, although the Queen Mother said that she did not intervene much in the first place, but the post was awarded to the nobles by her, and it was noted that it was a public selection of Zhong Lingyuxiu, who was proficient in Danqing's boudoir show, which more or less made people feel the meaning of the master.

This is more like a competitive competition, and even Yingyang Zhenren feels that he can't be as free and capricious as last time, and he doesn't need to explain to anyone.

How could Queen Pei come out on top back then? For a while, it became a question that women who were particularly curious about sending their daughters to run.

There was no public selection that year, and the news that Yingyang really intended to accept apprentices spread, and many families first sent the girls' paintings to be evaluated, and Yingyang selected a few people she liked, and stayed in Shangqing Guan for three or five days, and finally decided to accept Pei Wuniang as an apprentice, not to mention that the loser that year was Pei Wuniang himself, in fact, he didn't know much about how to be selected.

Therefore, Eleven Niang didn't know what the test would be this time, and naturally she couldn't talk about any careful preparation, even if she had the confidence to be gained, it was only out of comparison with the rest, thinking that she knew more about Yingyang's real people's likes and dislikes and temperament.

In fact, she was still in the description stage, compared to the ordinary, that is, one step earlier to be able to comprehend each stroke, clear in the heart, such as the spring silkworm spinning silk consistently, without being incoherent, there is a break in these childish painting often make taboos.

Shangqing Guan Xiaozhu three or five days she didn't even have a brush at all, but under the instruction of Yingyang Zhenren, she commented on the paintings of many celebrities and scholars in her collection, and after she really got the teaching of the real person, she was especially ashamed and blushing in retrospect, but she was indeed so inexplicably selected, and got the opportunity to learn from the nobles.

According to her guess, real people pay more attention to the talent for beauty and the frankness of expressing their opinions than techniques.

Now, of course, she has an in-depth understanding of painting theory, and obviously no longer needs to rely on talent, but if the real person sets up painting skills, it will be difficult for her.

Because she has already formed a unique style, maybe ordinary people can't see it at a glance, if you really want to play the level, Yingyang real people are bound to be able to see the clues.

Or should we look for tracing as an excuse, although it is discounted in talent and style, it is always safe.

As for the future...... In her previous life, she was more re-freehand, and there was still a lot of room for improvement in the brushwork, perhaps in this life, in the years of time earned, she could be more attentive to the brushwork, and she copied the excuse of Pu Jiayi at the beginning of learning to paint, and the style was similar to that should not make real people suspicious.

Therefore, three days before the official selection, Shangqing Guan sent someone to send a real handbook, asking everyone to prepare the usual paintings to the Shangqing Temple on the day of the selection, Eleven Niang did not carefully paint, and really picked a copy of the usual practice, intending to use this decent work to take the exam.

Xiao Shi naturally had no objections, she didn't want Shi Niang to be in the limelight at this time, especially on such an occasion.

Although Mrs. Wei expects Eleven Niang to be selected, she did not interfere with the decision of the little granddaughter, she is not very proficient in painting, the evaluation is acceptable, and the technique is more ordinary.

However, Liu Tinger, although she is a competitor of Eleven Niang, she inevitably has a desire to win this rare opportunity, but she is still very kind to remind her sister: "If you take the test by copying, it seems too ordinary, why don't Eleven sisters try to compose, even if the technique is clumsy, it is always more conducive to showing talent." ”

Eleven Niang looked at Liu Ting and composed the fish play, although there is still no elegance, but it is quite charming, and the beginner's words are already good, but I sincerely praise: "I am far from enough for the technique, so I have to seek stability, I am worried about trying to compose the painting, but also laughing and generous." This is of course hypocritical humility, but the praise for Tinger is sincere.

Because of the important matter of taking the exam, Liu Ting and Eleven Niang temporarily stopped the women's course, but many sisters were very curious about the two alternatives, so they picked up Liu Jiuniang's head, and pulled Ting and Eleven Niang to Fucuiwu, everyone gathered around the two picture scrolls to appreciate, some said that Eleven Niang copied the exquisite, and some people praised Ting and the work was more interesting, although Liu Qi Niang also participated in the onlookers, but did not say a word.

In her opinion, Liu Ting's work is far less exquisite than her skills, as for Eleven Niang, even if the depiction is realistic, but what kind of ability is this, the depiction is the easiest in the painting, if Yu Danqing's skills want to be successful, the key is to create a painting.

But even if she was unhappy in her heart, Qi Niang was helpless, she didn't even have the idea of asking her elders why she was unfairly deprived of her candidacy, she was just sad and full of jealousy, and secretly cried again after returning to the room that day.

It's the day of the exam in a blink of an eye.

Although Liu Jiuniang really pressed the "grudge" against her enemy Xiao Jiulang and took the initiative to try to go to Shangqing to watch the lively good thing, even if Xiao Xiaojiu went out, this time she was rejected by Mrs. Tai: "Don't be naughty, how important it is for Yingyang to accept apprentices, and it is not a test taker, it is too disrespectful to go to cause chaos." ”

The two little nine looked at Liu Ting with blank eyes and got into the car with Mrs. Tai and Xiao Shi with Eleven Niang, and sighed relatively long, there was no quarrel for the first time, and there was a kind of harmony between the people who had fallen at the end of the world.

Shangqing Guan is located in Yongxingfang, adjacent to Chongren Fang, where Liufu is located, and Xianyiguan is different from this kind of Taoist temple, Shangqing Guan was built by Dezong to Yingyang Zhenren to live in peace, according to the specifications of the princess's mansion - Yingyang Zhenren did not cultivate the Tao at first because of advocating quiet inaction, leaving the country to sit and forget, but to show that he did not want to marry, and there was also a reason for being more free and not constrained by the boudoir, because Dezong valued Yingyang's talent very much, and did not want his cousin to suffer, regardless of the ministers' admonitions, there was a violation system, and insisted that Yingyang, the county lord, enjoy the treatment of the princess. Yongxingfang and the imperial city are separated by a north-south avenue, and they are not allowed to move in unless they are forgiven by heaven, which shows that Yingyang was honored back then.

However, since the collapse of Dezong, Yingyang Zhenren seems to be more and more lazy Wenhui banquet, but really has the meaning of leaving the country to sit and forget, closed door for a long time, Shangqing Guanqian is no longer prosperous, except for some old friends still often have contacts, here has not been lively for a long time.

There was already a lot of traffic in front of the door, but Yingyang Zhenren was a little lazy, and handed over all the greetings to He Zhan - too lazy to pay attention to the fact that most of the ladies and ladies who came today seemed to be a little inappropriate for He Zhan to come forward to entertain. She almost concluded that He Zhan was behind the troublemaker incident, and she had been frosty to Shishilang for several days, so she was naturally not optimistic that there would be those who took advantage of her wishes among these test takers, but she had to give the Queen Mother face, so she made up her mind to make things difficult, and then said that they were all unsatisfactory.

For this reason, Yingyang also made a special trip to invite two old friends, who were frequent visitors to the Shangqing Temple, and the literary style and elegance were also very good, and she recommended that he had been enshrined by Dezong in Hanlin, and later also served as two local officials, and had a high status among the Magi and celebrities, but after the Pei Zheng case, the two Magi saw that the official system was becoming more and more broken, and they simply did not rush to be promoted. It can be regarded as an explanation of the past to the Queen Mother.

It wasn't until the sink ditch into the inner report that Du Tao and Li Yu had arrived at the main hall to take a seat, and Yingyang Zhenren changed his clothes under the service of the maidservant, or the red moon skirt that he usually loved, and put on a white gauze kingfisher silk, she rarely wore Taoist clothes, and did not wear a yellow crown, and the green silk was combed into a three-ring bun, and only obliquely inserted a white jade bead step shake, and the makeup on the face and oblique red should be avoided, only a little thin powder, and the eyebrows were lightly painted.

The visitors have already taken their seats in the main hall, although most of the candidates for today's test are girls around ten years old, and the oldest is not more than twelve years old, which is not yet the age of the secret of the heart, but the peerless He Shishilang still attracted a lot of attention - the elders are secretly calculating whether there is a daughter in the family to marry, and whether it is possible to marry her. Even those newly-married young women who accompanied their nieces and sisters-in-law to come, there is no lack of autumn waves and flattering eyes, but it is not that they must have some impure intentions in their hearts, for Da Zhou, admiring beauty is not only a man's prerogative, even if it is a married woman, it is not a bad morals to flirt with Yulang's eyebrows, even if it is really a bad thing, as long as you are not afraid of being abandoned by your in-laws, it is not a big deal.

Of course, if there is a mother-in-law sitting by the side, the daughters-in-law are still somewhat restrained, so they are limited to appreciation, or secretly teasing them, and it is still impossible to do things that are directly accosted, and there is no environment for private teaching.

Even though He Zhan has become accustomed to being watched, he has never cared much about it, and even behaves self-proudly when he is in good spirits, and occasionally accepts ridicule, but it is still rare to experience the scene of being surrounded by a bunch of women today, not to mention that Yingyang's aunt is on it, he can't be too frivolous, so he has to pretend to be "dignified", and his words and deeds show a little stiffness and discomfort, and he was also teased by Du Tao and Li Yu two special guests earlier, and laughed that whether Yingyang can really choose the favorite student today is still two words, Shishilang may be chosen as the fast son-in-law of the East Bed, maybe he will reproduce the grand scene when the King of Yoshikawa County provoked many "mothers-in-law" to fight for each other, which simply made He Zhan cry and laugh.

The predecessor of the king of Yichuan County was never married, and he was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, because he showed a hand of Hu Xuan dance at the banquet in Lufu, and as a result, many mothers of women to be married asked about the conditions for choosing a mate in person, and even the mother of the Empress Dowager Lu also joined in the fun, so the king of Yichuan County had to "say everything", resulting in a lot of "boasting" at the banquet, and the mothers and adults said that their daughters met the standards, and the war of words turned into a hands-on battle - by having wine and courage, they tried to snatch the letter from the king of Yichuan County, and almost did not tear the clothes of the county king, For a while, it was rumored to be a "beautiful talk", and the king of Yichuan County has since gained the nickname of Zhou Pan'an.

He Zhan said that he didn't want to experience the embarrassment of his predecessors, so he became more dignified and virtuous, sitting aside and letting him watch, looking at his nose and nose, and living like an old monk.

Beat to death, refuse to show grace again.

"Disturb your kindness." After Yingyang Zhenren took a seat, seeing He Zhan's cautious appearance, the depression in his heart finally dissipated a little, and he lowered his voice and said.

"Yes, it's all my nephew's own doing." He Zhan was overjoyed in his heart, his aunt was finally discouraged, even if she was stripped naked today, it was worth it, what was it to look at it twice!

Only because of this happy smile, it caused many young women in the hall to falter, He Zhan went to find Eleven Niang with his eyes, and implied: Fifth Sister Pei, you must return this favor.

Eleven Niang calmly shifted her gaze.

However, many noblewomen mistakenly thought that Yulang was paying attention to the Xiao family.

So Xiao suddenly felt that there was a chill behind him?

At this moment, a servant suddenly entered to report - the Queen Mother arrived.
