Chapter 474 Water-based
Dongchang fanzi is on this street, come and go quickly!
No one noticed that on the second floor of the Beiqi embassy next door, a Beiqi man and a Xiliang man were together. The Beiqi man looked away from Lu Yan and asked the Xiliang man, "How? not like?"
"Like, so similar, if I didn't look carefully, I would have thought that what I saw was Ding Yuanhou in the painting."
The Beiqi man breathed a sigh of relief, turning the wine glass in his hand, "Tell me, if Emperor Dayong knew that the son of Marquis Dingyuan was serving as an errand in front of him and could be reused, what would he do?"
"Hahaha!" Xiliang people laughed, and said in a discussing tone, "Why don't you give it a try?"
Yang Yufei's eyes were glued to Lu Yan's body, until the bright red color disappeared at the corner of the street, and then she withdrew her gaze with mixed feelings in her heart.
"Let's go!"
Following Yang Yufei's order, the carriage rumbled to the Huanxi Garden located in Sooyou Alley.
This garden is owned by a wealthy businessman in the south of the Yangtze River, and now it is donated to the three masters of Su Bicheng to run a girls' school.
Today is the day when the content and procedures of the examination are announced. As soon as Yang Yufei got off the carriage, she met several acquaintances. One of them was Xue Wanqing. , went forward to salute her, "Ms. Xue is good!"
Xue Wanqing naturally knew Yang Yufei, and nodded reservedly, "Hi, Miss Yang!"
After a while, Princess Huayang also came, and a group of people gathered together to listen to the person in charge of Huanxi Garden explaining the content of the exam, "It is divided into four parts: piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Everyone from Lin Yueying will give piano lessons, and everyone from Xue Peiyun will give chess lessons. , Master Su Bicheng is teaching painting, and Shen Rongan is specially invited to teach calligraphy."
Hearing Shen Rongan's name, everyone exclaimed. Unexpectedly, this time, four female masters gathered in this women's school. It must be a good story.
Everyone Shen Rongan is the daughter of Mr. Shen Zhi. She once traveled all over the country with her husband Meng Wanju, the prefect of Yunyang, and copied countless inscriptions. She is self-contained with hairpin flowers and small letters. The daughter's character "is as graceful as a tree, as muscular as a breeze", if someone is lucky enough to be taught by Mrs. Shen, will they worry about their reputation?
Everyone was envious, and someone asked, "Why did Mr. Shen come to the capital and run a women's school here?"
The man looked over and smiled, "In the future, everyone will know why Mr. Shen came. Mr. Shen refuses to say, so I naturally don't want to disclose it."
Someone exclaimed, "Mr. Shen didn't come here because of Princess Duanxian, did he?"
After Huihe and the others heard this, they were very displeased. Xue Wanqing showed a look of indifference, and Princess Huayang glared at the man viciously. His face paled with fright, and he backed away.
Zhang Qinghan's gaze swept over Huihe and the others, she frowned, stood up, and asked the person in charge of Huanxi Garden, "My lady, may I ask, did the Shen family come here only for Princess Duanxian? Princess Duanxian already has a marriage contract, as far as I know, if Master Shen doesn't say it clearly, she won't come to the assessment."
"Chick!"
A sharp chuckle sounded, and the county magistrate Huihe turned around and said to Zhang Qinghan, "Miss Zhang, is Xie Zhiwei the only one who can write? Are you trying to curry favor with her? What can she do? On the same level as Master Shen, you should stop putting money on her face, and she is not here, no matter how many good things you say for her, no one will help you convey it."
"That's right, I came here precisely because of Princess Duanxian!"
As soon as the words of the county magistrate of Huihe fell, a voice came out from the door of Huanxi Garden. It was a middle-aged woman who was wearing a green cloth and plain gown, with only a bun on her head, and was very elegantly dressed. When she came out, she gave Huihe a sharp look, and said to Zhang Qinghan, "Miss Zhang, please help convey that I am here for Princess Duanxian."
Zhang Qinghan was very embarrassed, she agreed to stop dealing with Xie Zhiwei, but at this time, if she told the truth, how would others speak ill of Xie Zhiwei?
"Yes, Mr. Shen, I will help convey it."
Zhang Qinghan agreed, but she was about to turn around when she heard an unfamiliar voice asking, "Mr. Shen, are you planning to accept Xie Zhiwei as a student only?"
Mr. Shen smiled and said, "I'm afraid I'm not qualified to accept Princess Duan Xian as a student. I just want to learn from her her wild skills. I heard that she is as frightened as a dragon. If I can get her advice, I will Grateful."
Everyone gasped, everyone was astonished, and many people also remembered Xie Zhiwei's words that shocked the audience when they were in Youlanju, and they couldn't help but nodded, "Yes, Princess Duanxian's crazy grass is indeed Peerless."
"When Princess Duanxian wrote that poem, I was there at the scene. It was so shocking!"
"I'm also there. My father said that some people can't write the handwriting of Princess Duanxian in several lifetimes. It can be seen that Princess Duanxian's talent is amazing!"
When Shen Rongan heard these praises, her eyes were full of smiles, and she thought to herself, she really came to the capital this time at the right time, she didn't believe that a ten-year-old girl could write such good characters, but after she came, Xu Peiyun told her that the rumor was true.
Seeing so many people praising Xie Zhiwei, for some reason, thinking of Lu Yan's way of laughing at Xie Zhiwei, Yang Yufei felt very uncomfortable, but her father was just an inconspicuous little county magistrate, so she leaned into Huihe's ear, "Master, I saw an incredible scene today."
Huihe was feeling uncomfortable, and said impatiently, "What do you want to say? Just say it!"
Yang Yufei really didn't dare to say it, she was hesitating, Huihe stared at her, and she shuddered, and said what was hidden in her heart, Xue Wanqing heard it in front, and sneered from the bottom of her heart, Xie Zhiwei, you also have today?
It can be seen that the eyes of the masses are discerning, and the mouth of the people is better than the mouth of the people. Don’t you understand this truth?
She is really a talented woman.
Hearing that, the county head Huihe was overjoyed and asked Yang Yufei, "Are you serious? Did you read it right?"
"I'm not mistaken, county magistrate, how can I say such nonsense? Last time I was in Feng's house, I felt that something was wrong. Governor Lu was obviously helping Duanxian county magistrate, otherwise, he thought Duanxian county The Lord is inside, why did he panic like that? This time on the street, if someone else startled his horse and almost caused him to fall off the horse, is that person still alive? Princess Duanxian did something It’s nothing, it’s not normal.”
Everyone in the capital knows about the Feng family, and Huihe has heard about it too. Besides, she doesn't care if she's talking nonsense, so what if it's a guess?
She asked Shen Rongan, "Master Shen, in your eyes, is talent or virtue important for a girl?"
Shen Rongan didn't know what Huihe wanted to do, but it was not difficult to answer this question. She solemnly said, "Whether it is a man or a woman, virtue always comes first."
Huihe took a step forward and said aggressively, "Okay, Master Shen, if I say Princess Duanxian is a flirtatious woman who is engaged and flirts with a eunuch, and behaves abnormally intimately, then she still has the right to advise you calligraphy?"
Are you kidding me, if Xie Zhiwei is asked to teach Shen Rongan's calligraphy, what kind of reputation will Xie Zhiwei reach?
There was an uproar in the audience, and everyone looked at Huihe with shocked eyes. No one thought that Huihe would say such words under such circumstances.
How important is a woman's reputation!
The second update!
