Chapter 48: School Exams Begin

In the Elegy Pavilion, the music that was originally being played came to an abrupt end.

"What-" Shen Yuyan suddenly stopped practicing her hand after hearing the news of Poria Cocos's return, her eyes were full of resentment, "You said that Shen Yanshu prepared a falling goose, and he played well?"

Poria said: "The slave maid listened to what the little maid next to the second young master said, and also said that with the strength of the third young lady, Miss Qi is definitely not her opponent. ”

As soon as Shen Yuyan heard her words, the hatred in her eyes was even stronger.

"You send someone to deliver a letter to Miss Qi, tell her about this, and let her be prepared for Shen Yanshu. Shen Yuyan said.

It's not just her Shen Yuyan who can't get used to Shen Yanshu, with Qi Huan and Lu Huaimin's temperament, if you don't do something to Shen Yanshu, it's really abnormal.

Poria said: "The slave is saved." ”

"How about the big kitchen, can you find a chance to do it?" asked Shen Yuyan.

Poria lowered her head and replied, "The third lady's meal is personally taken care of by Qinglan in the dark fragrance curry, and the slaves and maids can't find a chance to start. ”

Shen Yuyan raised her eyes: "If you can't find a chance, won't you buy Qinglan?"

"The slave maid also wanted to buy Qinglan, but that girl really didn't know what to do, and every time she always played haha to fool things over, the slave didn't dare to say too much for fear of being discovered by the third lady. Poria said.

Shen Yuyan said angrily: "It's just a cheap maid, and she dares to go against me!"

"Now that the third lady is in the limelight, she has grounded the second lady, and now who dares to despise her!"

Shen Yuyan was holding her breath in her heart, she was also grounded now. The old lady spoke, if you want to lift the grounding, you must first promise that you will have no contact with Gu Ziyi in the future.

How could she agree, she thought in her heart that she could marry Gu Ziyi!

If it weren't for Shen Yanshu, who was in the way, she would be the one who was married to Gu Ziyi!

Shen Yuyan made up her mind that she would not give in, anyway, her father would come back in a few days, and they would not be able to keep her and her mother grounded in the yard all the time.

As for Shen Yanshu...... A trace of fierceness flashed in Shen Yuyan's eyes, and she said: "Since you can't move her food, let's start from the side, the last game of the school exam is the imperial shooting, you let people follow, add some material to the horse she chooses, it's best to let the horse go crazy and fall to her death!"

Poria understood the meaning of Shen Yuyan's words very well, nodded and said, "The slave knows." ”

————

The day of the school examination came as scheduled, and it was the first day of the exam, and everyone's enthusiasm was very high.

It is said that in the gambling games opened by the big gambling houses, most of the people pressed Qi Huan to win, but there were also a small number of people who felt that wealth and wealth were in danger and pressed Shen Yanshu. In order to see the results, a group of people came to the competition site.

The female students of Zhaodetang saw that there were so many layers of people inside and outside under the stands below, and they were even more nervous, if they played well, if they made a mistake in so many people, it would be really embarrassing and embarrassing.

There are two classes in the school examination competition, one is Shen Yanshu's class that is about to graduate, and the other is a class that is one or two years later than them, that is, Qi Huan's class, with twelve people in each class, adding up to twenty-four people.

Each competition is conducted in the order of the examination by drawing lots, and Shen Yanshu won the eighteenth lot, which was relatively low, but coincidentally, Qi Huan won the seventeenth, and the two of them were one after the other, which made people feel that it was extremely interesting.

Qi Huan was very satisfied with this result.

Ruan Leyao looked at Qi Huan's smug expression, gently tugged Shen Yanshu's sleeve, and said, "How do I feel that Qi Huan looks determined to win, has she researched any way to deal with you?"

Shen Yanshu shook his head: "I'm not a roundworm in her stomach, how do you know what she's thinking?"

"It's also ......," Ruan Leyao said, "but you guys are really coincidental, and you can even get together in the lottery." ”

Shen Yanshu smiled and said nothing, the inside story of this lottery could be hidden from others but she couldn't hide it, but she didn't want to worry too much, but the order was different, and she couldn't be restricted at all.

"Mr. Da Si Lelan, Mr. Liyinfang Qinglan, and Wubo Jushi have arrived!"

With a loud shout, everyone shifted their eyes to the direction of the three examiners who were walking towards the stage.

The highest musician of the court, Mr. Si Lelan, was born in a family of musicians, and was already quite famous since he was a child, and later became a court musician.

Although Mr. Qinglan of Liyin Fang is a dusty woman, she is talented, especially her good piano skills are highly respected, and she can be regarded as the number one person in Chang'an City.

Few people know about Wubo, but he was once the piano master of Zhaodetang, and later traveled around the mountains and rivers, but he also fell into an elegant name.

The three of them are located on the side of the stage and sit together.

"I didn't expect Zhaodetang's school examination to invite all three of them, this time it's something to look at!"

"I heard that the emperor personally ordered it, of course, it was generous. ”

"Does the emperor also know about the bet between Miss Qi and Miss Shen San?"

"Of course, I'll tell you......"

There was a lively discussion again, which was even more lively than the vegetable market.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of gongs and drums, and everyone suddenly fell silent again, poking their heads to see what was going on.

"His Royal Highness King Ning has arrived! His Royal Highness King Ling has arrived!"

As the voice of the eunuch who passed the word sounded, everyone looked towards the person who had just come over, Ning Wang Yanxiao and Ling Wang Yan Qinghan had already walked towards the stage, and the two of them were the chief examiners of this year's Zhaode Hall school examination.

"See His Royal Highness King Ning, see His Royal Highness King Ling!"

The crowd knelt down and saluted.

Yan Xiao and Yan Qinghan walked to the main seat above the competition table, sat down, and Yan Xiao said, "You don't have to be polite. ”

"Your Highness!"

Shen Yanshu raised her head and looked in their direction, only to find that Yan Qinghan's gaze also stayed on hers, she was stunned, and then shifted her gaze to other places.

The other female students in Zhaode Hall secretly looked at the two princes on the main stage with their spare eyes, and they were very excited, they had already heard from the elders in the family that in fact, the emperor had another meaning for letting the two princes come.

King Ning and King Ling have not yet taken the main concubine, and now is the age to choose a princess, if they can stand out in this school examination, maybe they can still enter the eyes of the royal family.

Of course, most of them are going to King Ning, after all, King Ning's mother is the queen, and it is very likely that she will ascend to the throne in the future, and I heard that King Ling has a strange poison in his body, he will not live for five years, and his temper is very short-tempered, where do those young ladies dare to provoke this living Hades.

Yan Qinghan was dressed in a navy blue brocade robe, because of his martial arts practice, his body was tall and resolute, but his slightly pale face could not cover his originally handsome face, his sword eyebrows and starry eyes, his nose bones were straight, and his indifferent expression had a hint of coldness, which made people feel a little alienated.

And Ning Wang Yanxiao is different, although he has the same outstanding appearance, but his face is soft, he looks very approachable, and his gestures are full of royal demeanor, which makes the young ladies blush and their hearts beat.

The director of Zhaodetang stepped forward and explained: "Now that everyone is ready, let's talk about the rules of our school examination first." Today's test subject is piano art, and students play a song freely, and then the three examiners will give the results respectively, with the highest score of 10 points, and the total score will be ranked. In the end, His Royal Highness King Ning, the chief inspector, and His Royal Highness King Ling jointly confirmed that it was correct, and the final result was confirmed. ”

There were no other procedures that were too cumbersome, and soon they were played one after another.

It's probably because there are too many people, and the two female students in front of them are too nervous, and they play a few wrong tunes at the beginning, and they are annoyed after the game, and they even have red eyes.

Ruan Leyao was the fifth to appear, but she couldn't see how nervous she was, her piano skills were average, and naturally she didn't think about how brilliant she could be, and she played the piano music smoothly, compared to the previous few people, she was already considered good, scoring twenty-three points.

"Miss Ruan's calm attitude is quite atmospheric, and Lord Weng is really well taught. Mrs. Qi turned his head and said to Weng Jin who was not far away.

The people who are in the front row in the field are the family members of these official ladies, and their status is naturally not low.

Hearing Mrs. Qi say this, everyone else also agreed.

Weng Jin just said lightly: "It's false, in terms of teaching to juniors, it's still not as good as Mrs. Qi! Which of the young ladies and young masters of the Qi family is not the best among them." ”

Mrs. Qi just laughed, and when he saw Shen Jun who was some distance away, there was no wave in his eyes.

With Ruan Leyao's calm recital, the others gradually calmed down and played well, but Lu Huaimin was the latest to Zhaodetang, and he had never learned the piano before, so he played the wrong tune a lot, so he got the lowest score.

After getting off the stage, she always felt that others looked at her a little strangely, as if they were mocking, she was ashamed and annoyed, and her hands were tightly clenched into fists.

Qi Huan saw that her face was not very good, so he stepped forward and said, "Don't be too sad, compared to the fact that you haven't learned piano skills in the countryside before, it's good to be able to get to this point now." ”

Lu Huaimin listened to her words, not only did he not let go, but his eyes became even more resentful.

Qi Huan is laughing at her for being a village girl before!

Although he was unhappy, Lu Huaimin could only endure it and silently returned to his position without saying a word.

Qi Huan kindly comforted her, but she was ignored, and secretly said in her heart that she really came from a small place, and she really didn't know how to lift up.

"Next, No. 17 Qi Huan. ”

After hearing his name, Qi Huan happily got up, tidied up his dress slightly, then turned his head to look at Shen Yanshu, left a provocative smile, and walked up to the test platform.
