Chapter 19

This question hovered in Jiang Xuening's mind all night without an answer.

She didn't know exactly how the promotion was carried out.

In this way, even those who have doubts in their hearts can not be verified.

The next morning, more and more news came out about the selection of accompanying reading by Princess LeYang.

For example, the list of accompanying readers in the primary election.

Shen Zhiyi has been playing in Chengguo mansion since she was a child. Xiao Shu is one of them, followed by eleven other ministers and the young ladies in Xun GUI's family.

There is Jiang Xuening, who has a good life.

At the same time, she also noticed that the last time she was in Qingyuan Bofu, Miss Fan Jia, who was ordered by Shen Zhi to be the first lady in the poem, and you Yue, the second lady in Qingyuan Bofu, who was the first lady in the painting, were also among them.

For example, specific things to learn.

The men of Daqian want to learn etiquette, music, archery, imperial, calligraphy and numeration, but the daughters of ordinary families can learn at most a few words, such as needlework, poetry and painting.

But Shen Zhiyi is a princess, and there are requirements, naturally not the same.

In the six arts of the gentleman, etiquette, music and calligraphy are the three things to learn. Besides, they also need to learn some elegant things such as flavoring and painting. In addition, Shen Zhi's clothes are favored by the emperor. Knowing that she always wants to sneak to the Wenhua hall to listen to the Sutra feast, he found some learned old men in the Hanlin academy to teach her some books that only men can read.

One of the most amazing, perhaps, is that one of the gentlemen the Emperor invited for her is actually "Mr. Xie" -

Xie Wei, the crown prince and teacher of the current dynasty!

It is said that he will teach two lessons: one is Qin, which is included in "music"; the other is that he will choose one from the classics and history collection, but the exact one is not yet decided.

God knows when Jiang Xuening hears the news from lian'er's little mouth, she wants to rob the ground with her head!

Another example is the arrangement of entering the palace.

I will be ready to enter the palace in the future. I will stay for about three to five days. I will follow the female officials in the palace and learn about the etiquette of the palace. I will understand the taboos in the palace, so as not to make any mistakes.

If you can't really learn or have poor qualifications at this time, you will be tactfully dissuaded.

Then they go home and stay for a few days, which is the real accompaniment reading.

Most of them live in the palace. They can go home every nine days until they finish their studies arranged by the gentlemen. It is estimated that they will have more than half a year.

This is definitely a good opportunity.

Jiang Xuening's head is as big as a fist at the thought of going to the palace to accompany him. Of course, he doesn't dare to say it openly, so he must have a suitable reason.

If you can't learn etiquette, or you're too poor to be "dissuaded", won't you just succeed?

She made up her mind to go slow!

*

in the afternoon.

Tang'er and lian'er are in the room to pick up the things she needs to prepare for her first visit to the palace. They also say that if she wants to see so many aristocratic ladies when she enters the palace, she must bring some gifts. It's better to go out and buy some later.

Jiang Xuening sat by the window reading idle books, listening to the corners of her mouth slightly pumping.

"Those who know are going to accompany reading, while those who don't think they are going to visit relatives."

Lian'er duzui: "when you enter the palace, of course, you have to be well prepared. This time, the maidservants can't follow you. Who knows what the maids in the palace are like? I don't need it this time. I can use it next time. And our girl is the only one who didn't submit her name but was on the accompanying list. She can lose everything, but she can't

Jiang Xuening's eyelids jump when she hears this.

Sure enough, you'd better find a dentist to sell this girl first?

Why don't you mention that pot.

She buried her head and picked up a piece of candied fruit from the plate to eat. She flipped through the book, no matter how they tossed.

She didn't plan to stay in the palace long anyway.

But it can't be said.

If people know that she deliberately plays tricks and tricks, and does not want to enter the palace, they are afraid to cause some unnecessary trouble.

The less people you know, the better. Better not.

Just turned two pages again, suddenly heard a "pa" sound, it seems that some small things hit the window sash.

Jiang Xuening looked up.

Just about to bow down and continue to read, there was another "pa" sound.

This time it hit the lattice of the window, bounced, and rolled down to her book.

She picked it up and saw that it was a golden pine nut with a small crack.

With a pinch of the finger, it opened.

It turned out to be fried pine nuts.

It's cooked.

Jiang Xuening didn't see anyone, but he already knew who was coming. He couldn't help laughing: "the courtyard wall in the mansion is built like it's not built. If my father knows that you don't go through the main door, I'm afraid you'll have to complain again."

"But didn't he see it this time?"

Yan Lin's voice came from a high place. She only appeared in the thick shade of the tree under the wall and jumped down. Today, she was wearing a robe of Tibetan robe, with a small purse hanging from her waist and a handful of pine nuts in her hand. She walked to her window with a smile."Unless you complain."

I haven't seen him for several days, but he seems to have tanned a little bit. There is also a shallow scratch on his pretty face. Fortunately, it's not deep and it's not much. It doesn't really break his face. It just adds a bit of hardness to the original noble son's spirit and makes him more burning.

Jiang Xuening asked him, "how did you do it?"

Yan Lin was still a little concerned about this appearance. He raised his hand to touch his cheek, coughed and said, "when I went to TongZhou camp, I drank a little wine, but I couldn't resist to compete with my father's subordinates. I had no eyes and hurt a little. But it doesn't matter. The doctor in the army said, "just leave it for two days."

There were garrisons in Fengtai Daying and TongZhou Daying to defend the capital.

However, since the king of Pingnan attempted to invade the capital 20 years ago, and Fengtai and TongZhou had no time to respond, they were unable to enter the capital in time to put an end to the chaos. The former Emperor set up a forbidden army in the capital and selected the best of the two battalions to guard the capital.

After Shen Lang ascended the throne, he further strengthened the imperial army.

Because he was the witness of the rebellion of the Pingnan king, he had a deep shadow on the danger of the rebellion and the slow speed of the army's rescue, so the status of Fengtai camp and TongZhou camp in the army declined.

Marquis Yongyi's mansion is one of the several honourable families in charge of military power in the imperial court. It is mainly in charge of Tongzhou camp, which is far away from the capital.

As for Fengtai camp, which is closer to the capital, it is in the charge of Chengguo government.

But now the most important 26 guards are controlled by the Emperor himself and the army.

It can be seen that although the Yan Family and the Xiao family are the two most distinguished families in the capital, the Xiao family, the official residence of Kecheng state, is the outsider of Shen Lang, who is obviously more trusted than the Yan family.

I don't know who is pushing behind the affairs of marquis Yongyi.

Jiang Xuening looked at Yan Lin and said, "how about Zhou Yinzhi?"

Yan Lin took a look at the busy maid in her room. She put a handful of pine nuts in her hand on the table by the window. With one hand on the windowsill, she turned up and sat down. One leg hung outside, but the other bent up on the windowsill. She took a piece of candied fruit to eat.

Then he said, "this man is a little interesting."

He thought about it for a moment, but he showed a look of appreciation: "I met him before I left Beijing. He is neither humble nor arrogant, and he is calm. Maybe he is the royal guards, and he knows everything in the court very well. He should be able to do things. It's just that I think this person is useful, and it's not just that. There's something about him recently. Have you heard about it? "

Jiang Xuening was curious: "recently there was an assassin in Beijing. It's not peaceful. I didn't go out and didn't pay attention to the outside. What's the matter? "

Yan Lin then said: "this man has a good horse and loves it very much. He has to feed it himself every day. There is no open land in the capital. If he has time, he will take it to the outskirts of Beijing to run horses. But not long ago, when he was dealing with official business in the health care center, a child came to his home. It was said that his horse was ill and he was about to die. He immediately asked the officer for leave. After going home to see the horse, he pulled out his sword and killed the horse himself. "

Jiang Xuening suddenly froze.

But Yan Lin laughed: "the next day he went to zhenfusi, and the officer asked him, is your horse OK? He said, the horse died, I killed it. The officer was surprised and asked him why. He said that he had kept the horse for more than two years, just like his relatives. But when the horse was sick, he couldn't bear to see its pain. He simply gave it a good time and saved it from suffering. It was also a return to the friendship between the horse and him for more than two years. "

That horse

Where can Jiang Xuening not know?

When she went to find Zhou Yin that day, the horse was still in good condition. Why did she get sick to death and "suffer"?

At the moment, the only thing she could think of was that she had made up an excuse for the child to go to the bathroom to find him back: Mr. Zhou's beloved horse was dying of illness

A chill spread all over the body from under the feet.

Jiang Xuening pressed the finger of the page and did not hold it down. She trembled gently.

Yan Lin then said, "it's hard to say whether this is true or not, but it's true about killing horses. You can see that this man is very decisive. Recently, the emperor intended to release the prison affairs to the royal guards, but the Ministry of punishment, Dali temple and duchayuan, who were originally in charge of the prison affairs, all had great opinions. This time, the criminal division impeached Zhou Qianhu, which just gave the three law departments the opportunity to make full use of the problem. The emperor could not bear the burden of the public. He had withdrawn Zhou Qianhu's official position a few days ago. It's just a little over me

Zhou Yinzhi does not scatter Eagles without rabbits.

Yan Lin's work is neat, too.

Although Jiang Xuening was reborn, he didn't know anything about the government in his last life. He only knew the final result, but he didn't know how it happened, what happened in the middle, and how many forces were fighting.

If you remind me rashly, I don't know who will see you.

I'm afraid that I didn't help Yongyi's house and hurt myself, but if Zhou Yinzhi came to warn me, one would be able to hide himself, the other would be the "dark son" sent by the royal guards to investigate the relationship between Yongyi's house and Wang Pingnan's rebellion against the party. He knows more about this matter than she does, and can bring out real information, so that Yongyi's house can pay enough attention to it.Even if we can't avoid misfortune, if we can make some precautions and preparations in advance, we can also avoid the situation like the last life.

Some are due to old age, some are due to bandits, some are due to poverty and illness

This includes the father of Yan.

Jiang Xuening felt a little heavy in her heart. She only said that she had been fully used by Zhou Yinzhi in her last life. Although she still used Zhou Yinzhi in this life, she should be on guard.

Today, I can kill my love foal for telling a lie without leaking;

tomorrow, I can raise my butcher's knife to her for my official career and future.

She also can't help reminding Yan Lin: "I think this man likes his horse. It's decisive to kill it, but it's also cruel."

Yan Lin eyebrows stretch, know she is concerned about themselves, only way: "I know."

Jiang Xuening is not good to say anything more, only low eyebrow picked up the pine nut that he just put down to peel.

It's a small pine nut. It's not easy to peel. It's a bit of a bother.

She peeled and frowned.

Yan Lin looked at it with a smile. Then she untied the bulging purse hanging around her waist and threw it to her: "I know you are impatient to peel it. Open it and have a look."

She caught the purse and felt heavy.

Open to see, all have been peeled pine nuts, yellow to save together.

Although things are not valuable, it takes some effort to peel them well.

Just looking at this bulging purse, one can imagine how the young man sitting on her windowsill carefully peeled the pine nuts out of the shell bit by bit with his sword holding hands.

And save it.

And then throw it to her as if nothing had happened.

Yan Lin saw that she didn't speak and thought she didn't like it: "don't you like it?"

Jiang Xuening shook his head: "no, I like it very much."

Yan Lin wondered, "why don't you eat it?"

Jiang Xuening didn't know how to explain. Although the thing was small, she was afraid that she couldn't afford it.

There is a cool autumn wind blowing in front of the window. September is coming to an end, and the fragrance of Osmanthus fragrans is gradually fading.

Yan Lin didn't see her speak for a long time, and I don't know why. She thought of the strange words she said to him that night. As soon as she raised her eyes, she saw that her servant girl had collected several books and asked her, "girl, will you take some books to read when you enter the Palace tomorrow?"

Jiang Xuening did not return: "No."

Yan Lin then remembered the story of entering the palace. She took another candied fruit and said with a smile, "I'm going to enter the palace to be the companion of the princess, and I can get Mr. Xie to teach. How are you, happy? "

It's strange that Jiang Xuening is happy.

She opened her mouth to say that she didn't want to go at all.

But the words have not yet export, a look up unexpectedly see Yan Lin's full face smile, think again unexpectedly feel that his words seem to exude a bit proud, in the heart suddenly had a bad premonition.

Jiang Xuening's eyelids jumped: "you just came back and didn't know about accompanying reading in two days?"

Yan Lin gave a "ah" and blinked at her. Her dark eyes were bright and bright, and the color between her eyes became more and more obvious: "I knew that the princess wanted to choose accompanying reading. I told her about you for a long time, and asked her to add you in anyway. You always say that you want to go to places you haven't seen before. Aren't you curious about things in the palace in the past? With this great opportunity, I certainly can't forget you. Well, I've done a good job, haven't I? "

Jiang Xuening

Make for a long time, you want to do me!!!

She could not resist the impulse to push the boy down the window sill. The corner of her mouth smoked. She seemed to be smiling, but actually secretly clenched her back teeth and said, "beautiful! It's so beautiful and amazing

Yan Lin doesn't know why she feels chilly behind her neck.

But when Ning Ning is happy, so is he.

So he said: "although I don't know what book Mr. Xie is going to teach you at the moment, learning to play the piano has been decided, and there will certainly be. A few days ago, I ordered someone to search for some good Qin, some of which are still ancient ones hundreds of years ago. Mr. Xie Aiqin, if you go to the palace to learn the piano, you will bring a good one. That is to say, Mr. Xie is strict and will tolerate you a little in terms of face. Today is just right. There is still some time. Let's go. I'll take you to Xiangqin! "

When Jiang Xuening heard the three words "Mr. Xie", she was all hairy. When she heard "Qin", she had a big head. If she wanted to go there, she would come back with "dissuade" and really didn't need it.

Can't stand Yan Lin's hegemony.

After a while, she was forced into the carriage by him and went out to choose the piano.

*

fourteen days have passed since the Double Ninth Festival.

You Fangyin did not know how many times to step into this firm. After inquiring about the market price of today's raw silk, she frowned, and did not care how many eyes the counter staff looked at her. She still sincerely and honestly expressed her thanks.

After more than ten days of learning to read the account books and practicing bookkeeping, her eyes were full of blood.When you walk out of business, you feel that your head is heavy and your feet are light.

The market outside is full of people and cars.

Recently, my family is becoming more and more strict and always sneaks out. If her two elder sisters, especially her second elder sister, find out, I'm afraid it will be another torture.

The second elder sister has just been chosen as the companion of the eldest princess. No one in the house dares to offend her.

You Fangyin thinks that he should go back earlier today.

And I only slept for two hours last night. I really can't stand it.

But as I walked along, I saw a small stand on the side of the road with many Embroidered Brocade handkerchiefs and sachets, as well as all kinds of embroidery. There was an orchid embroidered with green calyx on one of the sachets. She had never seen it before. For a moment, her eyes stopped and her steps stopped.

You Fangyin thinks of the white peony that was soiled by herself.

So she put out her hand and picked up the sachet to have a close look.

I didn't want to see someone passing by. I bumped into her by accident, but she was in a trance. She couldn't even stand steadily. At that moment, she was taken forward. I didn't want to panic around the sleeves of the room, but she swept most of the brocade handkerchiefs and sachets that were hanging neatly down on the ground.

That peddler is also a small business, immediately cried: "what's the matter with you girl? Do you want to do business with sincerity

You Fang felt guilty: "sorry, I just want to see the sachet, not intentionally..."

All eyes around her fell on her, which made her very embarrassed. She quickly lowered her head, helped the peddler pick up the things that fell on the ground one by one, and repeatedly apologized.

There was a lot of noise on the street, and everyone could not help pointing fingers at her.

Jiang Xuening followed Yan Lin up to the elegant youhuang hall upstairs. Before she went in, she heard the voice, turned her head and followed her steps. Then she saw the embarrassed girl in the crowd.

Picking up a sachet instead knocked down more and more, more and more in a hurry.

She recognized that it was you Fang's singing, and her heart couldn't help smothering slightly.

Nothing seems to have changed.

How clumsy it was, how clumsy it is now.

Another look at the stall, which sells sachets and brocade handkerchiefs

She burst out laughing at herself.

What are you looking forward to?

I didn't know for a long time that a girl in the back house had never learned to be a housekeeper. She was afraid that she couldn't even read the account book and write a few words. She was still bound by the family. Even if you have money in your hand, you will buy some land if you are too strong. Do you really expect her to take risks, buy raw silk and do business?

There was only one you Fangyin who was so bold and extraordinary in the last life.

Yan Linshun looked at her eyes and recognized that it was the common girl of you family she had saved that day. She frowned for a moment: "what's the matter?"

Jiang Xuening took back her eyes, lowered her eyes and said, "I can't save my life if I get sick. Sometimes I know it's impossible, but when I see it with my own eyes, I still feel a little disappointed... "

Yan Lin looks back at her with some doubts.

She gave a slow smile: "it's OK. Just a little. "

The female leader is just an ordinary person, only when there is hope can there be disappointment. Only the present plot can have the future plot.

It's the same sentence

love to see but not to go.
