The best county magistrate

The Queen Mother exclaimed, "Prejudice? Please tell me and listen."

Yang Xuanchen said yes, and then began a long speech.

"Everyone is against prejudice, but everyone has prejudices."

"Just as the Queen Mother prefers Baoyu, Daiyu and Baochai, she hopes that the three of them can finally get married."

"That's prejudice."

"The Story of the Stone tells the story of Jia's family. Its plot has ups and downs, and each character has a different personality."

"Some are lovable, some are annoying..."

"This is in accordance with the saying, everyone has his own preference for vegetables and radishes."

"Daiyu's family background and character determine her fate, even if she marries Baoyu together with Baochai."

"She will eventually be ignored by Baoyu because he is rebellious, sentimental, cowardly, and naughty!"

"..."

The three of them listened carefully to the author Yang Xuanchen's interpretation of the Story of the Stone, and they seemed to suddenly realize that this was how he had sketched the characters in the story.

Xiao Yuer, who had only seen more than sixty episodes, said with a smile: "After hearing what Master Xiao Yang said, I have to watch it again from the first episode."

In response, Yang Xuanchen smiled and said, "If you like it, you can read it several times, because you will have a different feeling every time you read it carefully."

Xiao Yu'er nodded, looked at him thoughtfully, and then looked elsewhere.

Fu Yue has also finished reading the book "The Story of the Stone", but he had communicated with Yang Xuanchen at Mengpozhai last time, so now he has no doubts about it.

However, the Queen Mother had a cold face and seemed a little unhappy, "The Ai family has read this book three times!"

"It's true as you said, I have different insights every time I read it, but the more I read it for the fourth time, the more unpleasant it becomes."

"Can you clear up the Ai family's doubts?"

Yang Xuanchen bowed his head to the Queen Mother and said, "I would like to ask, Queen Mother."

He could see the expression on the Queen Mother's face, but he was still not sure where the Queen Mother was dissatisfied.

At this moment, I was still feeling quite uneasy, because the book Red Mansions was too controversial. If the Queen Mother interpreted it wrong, she might even be killed.

"The Ai family originally thought that even though your boy has some talent, he might be a bit dark."

Ok?

What does this mean? Am I very dark?

I am a sunny and happy boy, okay?

Yang Xuanchen raised his eyebrows when he heard this, but he did not interrupt the Queen Mother's words and still pretended to be listening attentively.

"After meeting you, the Ai family feels that their previous opinions were a bit excessive. You should be a good boy."

"However, in your book, Daiyu is described as beautiful and refined, but Jia's family is described as gloomy. Why is this?"

"Are you dissatisfied with the imperial court? Or are you dissatisfied with the world?"

The Queen Mother's words shocked not only Fu Yue but also Xiao Yu'er, both of whom turned their beautiful eyes towards Yang Xuanchen.

The former was more concerned, while the latter showed a cold light.

Yang Xuanchen was covered in cold sweat after being asked, and he was promoted. He was having a good conversation just now, so he wouldn't be beheaded in the blink of an eye.

He bowed and smiled and said: "The reason is still those two words, prejudice."

"Prejudice is a sharp knife that can kill people!"

"Prejudice is the beginning of contempt and disdain, the driving force behind provocation and trouble, and the sharp edge that kills lives."

Then he interpreted the darkness of the Jia family from the perspectives of a series of supporting characters such as Tan Chun, Wang Shanbao, Liu Xianglian, Xue Pan, and Qingwen.

"Legendary, concubine, lady, and actor all have their own value, but pride and prejudice can ruin everything."

"I believe that the world is one family, and everyone is a subject of my Dayan. There should be no distinction between high and low."

"There is a saying in the past that saints have impermanent hearts and take the hearts of the people as their heart."

"Those who are good will be good to me; those who are not good will be good to me as well. Virtue is good."

"Those who believe, I believe; those who do not believe, I also believe, virtue is trustworthy."

"The saint is in the world, he is like a saint, and he makes his heart clear for the world."

"The common people pay attention to his ears and eyes, and all the saints are children."

"However, the worldly hierarchy still exists and cannot be changed without human intervention. This has been the case from ancient times to the present!" Concubine Shu interjected.

Then, the Queen Mother smiled and said: "Asking you this is not because the Aijia is biased against you, the Aijia is just thinking about some of your ideas."

"After listening to your words, the Ai family naturally understands a lot."

"The emperor and those senior ministers did not misjudge you, and I hope the Aijia did not misjudge you either."

The Queen Mother's words seemed to be said in an understatement, but Yang Xuanchen understood it clearly, and he bowed again and said.

"No matter whether Jia's house is dark, muddy or filthy, Jia's house can be invincible because it lacks sunshine."

"One day, the sun will shine in every corner of Jia's mansion..."

As he spoke, Yang Xuanchen pointed to the flowers on the plum tree outside the window, "The edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold!"

Finally, a gratified smile appeared on the Queen Mother's face, "Okay, what a saying. The edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold!"

"Come here, go and call the two grandsons of the Ai family!"

When Zhao Yanli arrived, he immediately saw Yang Xuanchen, who was having a very speculative chat with his royal grandmother.

There was a thump in his heart, and an unpleasant feeling arose spontaneously.

He bravely went forward and greeted the Queen Mother and the others, then stood aside without saying a word, his eyes rolling as he thought about what might happen next.

The Queen Mother saw that Zhao Yanli seemed a little different from the previous ones, so she waved to him.

With a kind smile, he said: "Yanli, come here and meet your future teacher, Yang Xuanchen!"

I blanch, you are really such a pretty boy!

I had guessed it a long time ago. Oh, it’s so hard. I was born to be Zhao Yanli. Life is like a long night. When will I see the dawn of dawn!

Old Master Murong is driving me crazy. If Yang Xuanchen comes next, will my little life be enough?

Zhao Yanli shrugged his head and walked to Yang Xuanchen and bowed as a disciple, "Teacher, please accept Yanli's bow."

Yang Xuanchen stood upright, first received a gift, and then returned a gift, "The eldest prince does not need to be polite."

It happened that Zhao Xue also arrived at this time. When she saw Yang Xuanchen, her peach blossom eyes were full of surprise, "Master, why are you here?"

The Queen Mother looked at the performance of her granddaughter and wondered what she was thinking.

However, Concubine Shu suddenly said, "There are no rules, why don't you say hello to the Imperial Grandmother!"

Zhao Xue stuck out her tongue and made a face at Concubine Shu, then saluted the Queen Mother, then ran behind the Queen Mother and massaged her.

Her little eyes kept winking at Yang Xuanchen, which made Concubine Shu curse secretly in her heart.

The Queen Mother seemed a little happier when she saw that the children had arrived, and naturally there were more topics to talk about.

After everyone chatted for a while, the Queen Mother held the hands of the two children and spoke earnestly.

"Yanli, girl Xue, you two will study hard with your teacher from now on."

After giving instructions to the two children, he sent someone to fetch a ruler and handed it to Yang Xuanchen.

"Xiao Yang, if there is any conflict between the two of them in the future, don't fight first without asking! This is the rule of the Ai family. It won't help even if the emperor comes!"

Yang Xuanchen took the ruler solemnly, glanced at Zhao Yanli with a stern look in his eyes.

Didn't your kid go against me before?

When the time comes, see how many hits your skin can take with this ruler, hehe.

He deliberately slapped the palm of his hand several times with a ruler in front of Zhao Yanli, and the evil smile on his lips made Zhao Yanli's hair stand on end.

"Okay, the Ai family is a little tired. You all should step back."
