The two were silent all the way, Qi Muxiao put on the princely shelf again, showing people with a cold face, while Luo Li was busy dealing with the headaches by himself. When the two arrived at the Academy of Painting and Calligraphy, it was already dawn.

The entrance of the calligraphy and painting academy was much deserted, and there were only guards and two secretaries leading the way at the door, but there was also an acquaintance who was looking at them anxiously, it was Qi Yantong.

When Qi Yantong saw the two of them, he hurriedly came down from the steps to meet them, "Sixth brother, you are here! I just heard this morning that there were assassins in the palace yesterday?

"This king is fine. ”

Qi Yantong looked at Luo Li and saw that she was not injured, but her complexion was a little worse.

"It's okay, it's okay, you don't know that when the imperial brother hears the news early in the morning, he can't wait to find the sixth brother immediately, hey, this assassin is going for the sixth brother?"

Qi Muxiao glanced at Luo Li lightly and said, "No, it's for her......"

"Oh?" Qi Zhitong turned to Luo Li when he heard this, "Miss Luo, you were too ostentatious in your first attempt last time, and I don't know which master felt threatened, so the medicine will remove your thorn." Hey, it's good that you are safe and sound, the royal capital is going to assassinate the palace, it's really not a trivial matter, I heard that my father sent someone last night, did the assassin catch it?"

Qi Muxiao didn't reply to him, but turned around and asked Luo Li: "Oh, what did you do in your first attempt? and attract assassins to kill you?"

Luo Li naturally knew that this assassin did not come to her because of the matter of the Painting and Calligraphy Academy, but only because of Nan's affairs, and after this incident, she couldn't even do it in front of outsiders.

There are too many secrets in this child, and it is inevitable that there will be people with hearts.

"Back to the prince, the little girl is just painting normally, but some hall masters of the painting and calligraphy academy have been watching for a long time. ”

Qi Zhitong couldn't help but complain: "You call it normal painting? Rubbings that others can't finish painting in half an hour, you finish painting in less than two quarters of an hour, and a few sentences are exactly the same, this is called normal?" He waited for a while, but neither of them responded to him, especially his sixth brother, who had a cold face, and he didn't say anything more.

The three of them entered the calligraphy and painting academy, Luo Li went to the registration office with one secretary, and the other led the two princes to the main hall.

Luo Li walked into the threshold of the registration office, raised his eyes and saw that the old gentleman who was sitting in the middle was still the first time to try, Luo Li walked over and bowed first, and then presented the name tag with both hands.

Min Zhixin saw that she looked bad, and asked, "Luo girl, I heard that there was an accident in the palace yesterday, you weren't injured, right?"

Luo Li replied: "Thank you Master Min for your concern, the little girl is fine." ”

The old man was a little surprised to see that Luo Li knew his name, and asked, "Girl, how do you know that the old man is the master of the Min Hall? ”

"The little girl has long heard that there is an old man surnamed Min in the Academy of Calligraphy and Painting, who is good at painting horses, and the little girl sees that the adult is in line with this description......"

"Haha, yes, yes, it would be interesting if Luo Yatou's words were heard by Lin Lao, but I didn't expect the girl to look sweet, and this mouth is even sweeter. After Min Zhixin finished registering, he returned the name tag to her, and a secretary next to him handed her a gilded booklet. Min Zhixin asked, "You didn't bring an entourage today, do you need to send one to the old man?"

Luo Li replied: "Thank you for the kindness of Hall Master Min first, I don't need it for the time being, I am more comfortable alone." ”

"Okay, Liu Jie, you take her to the main hall to prepare. ”

Luo Li went to the main hall with the secretary just now, the overall decoration of the main hall is simple, the doors and windows of the original wood color and the beams and pillars of Nanmu plus the white wall, quite Zen. The gold lacquer plaque on the door of the temple is full of vigor and power. The space in the hall is also larger than expected, three rows of tables and chairs on the left and right sides have been placed, and almost all the candidates have been seated, except for the most front position.

There is a gold gauze tent placed on the platform in the deepest part of the main hall, there are several chairs in the front of the place, and eight seats are placed in a line under the stage, and in the middle is a gray-haired old man, on his right is the female hall master who announced the examination questions during the first examination, and on his right side is empty, and there are the evil men sitting around him, and there are also people who watched her paint last time.

She quickly swept past the candidates seated on the left and right, about half of them were dressed in light cyan robes, and the remaining half were dark cyan robes. It seems that the Academy of Calligraphy and Painting is more fair than imagined, and it is not easy for the painters who came in from the audition to get here.

When several candidates saw someone coming, they turned around one after another, and when they saw that the person who came was a young woman, they thought: Which powerful lady is it, let their father arrange for him to be in the No. 1 position.

Luo Li calmly carried the picture box and followed the secretary to the first row and sat down, she looked at the number on the table, and then she noticed that the number plate in her hand was number one.

The surrounding candidates saw that the girl politely saluted the secretary, and then opened the painting box and placed the painting tools alone, completely ignoring the eyes around them.

Luo Li set up the painting tools before taking a seat, she nodded to the few candidates around her, and then opened the golden book to look at the content of the exam questions. Half a moment later, the master of the Min hall came in from the main hall and sat next to Lin Qi. Several princes walked up to the stage and took their seats, while other officials stood aside.

Min Yun, the female hall master, got up and still announced the content of the exam.

The re-examination is divided into one test and two tests. Try a fixed topic and limit half an hour to make a small-scale landscape painting. The second test of their own proposition, limited to half an hour, the size is optional.

After the secretary took the rice paper and distributed it, the middle-aged woman got up and shook the bell, and everyone began to prepare. Still unhurried, Luo Li took out the paint and washed the brush.

Several hall masters on the stage secretly observed her every move, and no one dared to go down to watch this time.

It took Luo Li a quarter of an hour to prepare his things. She quickly picked up Wolf Hao and dipped it in the water, scraped it gently, then picked up the pen and tapped the ink cartridge, adjusted it on the drawing plate, and then put down the pen to render the background.

Within two cups of tea, a cyan mountain peak had been revealed, and Luo Li quickly finished the background foreshadowing, and then sat there unhurriedly holding the ink stone and grinding it carefully.

She's not in a hurry, someone is in a hurry for her.

The hall masters above who watched this scene were worried, but Qi Muxiao, who was sitting in the prince, didn't pay much attention to her, and kept whispering tea with Qi Tongtong.

King Rui kept staring at the man on Luo Li's side.

At this time, a man in a dragon robe quietly walked up from the side, followed by an old man and several palace maids holding fans, the princes and officials on the stage got up and saluted, the man signaled them to be silent, he walked into the golden gauze tent in a low-key manner, and the accompanying old man took a bronzing roster from the hand of the master of Min Tang and handed it to Emperor Qi.

Emperor Qi looked at it casually, and at this time, halfway through the attempt, the secretary shook the copper bell lightly to remind.

Luo Li was holding a mutton fat jade antler and sketching it at this time, not noticing the changes on the stage at all, and a few painters around who were not attentive enough noticed the arrival of Emperor Qi.

A moment later, Luo Li was almost finished, she continued to study the ink, pinched a small block and dipped it in the ink evenly, and mentioned a line of poetry.

——Kunlun Cave is a quiet and bright realm, dreaming of the dust and forgetting the original intention.

Thirty-five years of Tianyuan, Luo Li.

The hall master sitting in front saw Luo Li put down his paintbrush and nodded in approval.

Lin Qi looked at this young girl and also admired, this girl took less than two moments to complete it except for the time to prepare and grind the ink, it was indeed fast.

The man opposite her also finished drawing, and only then did she notice that the woman in No. 1 had finished it. The man did not shy away from watching the woman opposite him cleaning his painting tools.

When Qi Tongtong saw this scene, he couldn't help but complain: "Third brother, the painter you recommended is not right, why do you keep looking at the painter recommended by the sixth brother?"

King Rui didn't talk to him, and his eyes fell on the girl on No. 1.
