Forest House

"Xinrong, your writing is really good, it looks like this painting is more lifelike." Lin Qingniang held the scroll, looked at the painting, and then looked at Luo Xinrong, thinking that Xinrong is really a wonderful person.

Luo Xinrong was shy by nature, and when Lin Qingniang said it, her face turned a little red, and she said disapprovingly, "Qingniang is used to making fun of people." Since Luo Xinrong lived in Lin's residence, except for going to bed, the two of them were together Together, reciting poems and painting, playing chess and playing the piano.Luo Xinrong was also impressed by Qingniang's painting skills.

"Miss, miss, madam is looking for you." Yan'er ran into the gazebo, panting heavily.

Lin Qingniang was puzzled, what can I do at this time? "Yan'er, why are you so urgent?"

"Yan'er doesn't know, but after the master returned to the mansion, the madam was in a hurry to find the young lady." Yan'er said.

Lin Qingniang nodded, thinking in her heart, what's the matter? "Xinrong, you go back to your room first, and I will come to you later."

"Okay." Luo Xinrong responded softly.Lin Qingniang looked at Luo Xinrong's back, and felt an inexplicable feeling in her heart. After getting along for a few days, she felt like she hated seeing each other late. It was nothing at all, she just thought she was a good friend, but in the past two days, she suddenly felt sympathetic to each other. Waking up, this made Lin Qingniang feel a little puzzled.

Seeing that Lin Qingniang was silent, Yan'er waved his hand in front of her eyes, "Miss, you're back!"

Lin Qingniang was taken aback by Yan'er's yelling, and said reproachfully, "Stinky girl, why are you yelling so loudly, you want to scare me to death!"

Yan'er said aggrievedly, "It's not loud, it's clear that you are lost in thought." Seeing Yan'er's expression, Lin Qingniang nodded her head amusedly, "Let's go, don't make mother wait too long .”

Yan'er followed Lin Qingniang, and when she reached the door of the room, she consciously waited outside the door, knowing that Madam had something personal to say to Miss.

As soon as Lin Qingniang entered the room, she turned slightly towards Mrs. Lin, called mother obediently, and sat beside Mrs. Lin.

Mrs. Lin dotes on Lin Qingniang very much, and said with a smile, "What are you doing these days, and you can't see anyone?"

"We've been discussing painting skills with Xinrong these few days!" When Lin Qingniang said to Luo Xinrong, her tone became soft.

Mrs. Lin nodded with a smile. She had a very good impression of Luo Xinrong, she was well educated and reasonable, and she had a good appearance, but her life was a little bit hard. "Well, this Ms. Luo's behavior is very decent, you should learn from others."

Lin Qingniang nodded helplessly, "Daughter knows. By the way, what does mother want from me?" Could it be that she called me here because she wanted me to learn more from Xinrong?

Mrs. Lin was disturbed by Lin Qingniang, and almost forgot about her business, "Look at me, I forgot such an important matter, it seems that my mother is really old."

When Lin Qingniang heard Mrs. Lin say this, she quickly comforted her, "No way, mother is always the youngest."

"Hehe, you will make mother happy. Well, let's get down to business! Your father just came back and said that the emperor is going to hold a palace examination, to see the top three in civil and martial arts, and then the emperor will make a decision himself." Mrs. Lin After saying this, he stopped, looked at his daughter, and took a sip of tea.

Lin Qingniang was thinking about Mrs. Lin's words, savoring the meaning. Could it be... when she looked up again, her eyes were bright. "Mother." Madam Lin called out excitedly.

Mrs. Lin looked at Lin Qingniang, put down her teacup, "Yes, Qingniang guessed right, and Wang Siyou was among them. When your father came back, your mother asked around, and your father also said that Wen Ju was the top three, Wang Siyou , Guan Nuo, there is another one called Jiang, my mother can’t remember. However, your father admired Wang Siyou very much, and lamented that this son is not a treasure! You also know your father, so you won’t easily Praise someone. My mother decided that if you say you admire Wang Siyou, your father will definitely agree."

Lin Qingniang has always had a good impression of Wang Siyou, and she was very happy to hear the news, but she was not as happy as she imagined, so her expression was a little lacking. Mrs. Lin thought that her daughter hadn't reacted too much, so she didn't think too much about it. "Also, your father said that Wang Siyou first took part in the civil examination and then the martial arts examination, and they were all among the top three. Qing Niang, you have a good eye! One of the vast crowds! What a rough jade, you have found it, and my mother is happy for you!" Mrs. Lin and Queen Guan's words are really similar, and they both feel that their daughter has a very good vision.

"What?" Lin Qingniang was still shocked, she didn't expect Wang Siyou to be so outstanding.

Mrs. Lin felt that the matter was almost over, and it was time to talk to Lin Xiong. "Qingniang, tell your father about this tonight! You should prepare in advance." Mrs. Lin wanted Lin Qingniang to get married earlier, but she was also afraid of something happening.

Lin Qingniang didn't know why, and she didn't want her father to know. She couldn't explain why, but she obviously liked Wang Siyou! "Mother, wait for a while, wait until the palace test is over, and then tell father, he is also tired these days." I can only use this excuse to procrastinate for a while, so I can think about some things clearly.

Mrs. Lin also felt that what Lin Qingniang said made sense. Lin Xiong was really tired these days and became haggard a lot. "Well, it's up to you!"

The mother and daughter chatted for a few more words, and Lin Qingniang went back to her boudoir. She didn't go to Luo Xinrong, and she didn't have the mood to paint again. She just stayed by herself, thinking about her own affairs.

Two days later at the end of Yinshi

Wang Siyou was called out by Xiaoliu, and waited for him to dress and eat, and complained during the meal, "Why was it so early in the last dynasty, the rooster hasn't crowed yet?"

Xiao Liu ignored his complaints and said, "My lord, today is the imperial examination, so you naturally have to get up early to get ready. When the princess entered the palace yesterday, she specially asked Xiao Liu to take good care of the prince."

When Wang Siyou heard the word Kui Ning, what else could he say, what else could he say?Hey~ This sad palace exam, if you don’t sleep well, how can you have the energy to take the exam!

Seeing Wang Siyou's drowsy look, Xiao Liu said, "It's time to go, it's too late, but he despises the royal family and will be beheaded."

Wang Siyou's sleepy bugs ran away all at once, so he was going to be beheaded too? "Let's go, let's go, don't be late."

Xiao Liu was behind, secretly smiling at Wang Siyou, the princess's method is really useful!

The Princess Mansion is very close to the Imperial Palace, and it will arrive in fifteen to six minutes. Wang Siyou got out of the carriage and straightened his shirt. He was still a little nervous. After all, it was the first time for the son-in-law to meet his father-in-law, and he was still a little nervous.

The eunuch waiting at the gate of the palace saw Wang Siyou, and took the initiative to ask, "Excuse me, is this Wang Siyou, Mr. Wang?"

Wang Siyou bowed his hands politely, "I am right here."

The eunuch said, "Then invite the prince to follow the servant into the palace to meet the emperor!" After speaking, he made a gesture of invitation.

Wang Siyou didn't dare to lead the way, so he also made a gesture of invitation, and said, "Please, please lead the way." The eunuch didn't say much, and led the way.

Tai Chi Hall

Emperor Yongjing sat on the dragon chair solemnly, scanning all the ministers, "Dear dears, today's government affairs are over, then I want to meet with all dear ministers, the next generation of capable ministers of the Yong Kingdom, who is today The top three in civil and military examinations." After speaking, he waved his hand, and a eunuch said sharply, "Pass the candidates to see you~~~"

Wang Siyou and the others were nervous, and subconsciously straightened their clothes. When they were about to walk into the hall, they heard a heavy snort from the person next to them.Wang Siyou shook his head, a cheapskate.

Entering the hall, Qi Qi knelt down on the ground, "My emperor, long live long live long live long live!"

Emperor Yong Jing said softly, "Get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Everyone raise their heads and let me see!" Emperor Yong Jing mainly looked at Wang Siyou.When everyone raised their heads, Emperor Yong Jing nodded secretly. The two Wu Ju were a bit burly, and one of them looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it.Guan Nuo, I know him, but which of the other two is Wang Siyou? "Report your names!"

"Craftsman Zheng Ji is a martial arts candidate." Zheng Ji bowed and replied respectfully.

When Emperor Yongjing heard his name, he remembered, "Zheng Ji, I remembered, you are the son of Zheng Xiao. Haha~ Sure enough, the tiger father has no dogs!" The Zheng family almost lost their blood for the sake of Yongguo. Xiao survived and gave birth to two sons, Zheng Ji is his eldest son.Emperor Yongjing thought of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, and named Zheng Xiao General Zuo, in charge of the Tiger and Leopard Camp.

"Don't dare to be a grassroots." Zheng Ji said in fear.

Another burly candidate said, "Craftsman Li Xun." Emperor Yong Jing nodded and said, "Well, he has the demeanor of a general."

They continued in turn, "Jiang Wei, a grassroots man, is a student of the liberal arts."

"Long live my emperor, the grassroots care about Nuo." Guan Nuo smiled all over his face, feeling secretly refreshed. The number one spot must be in his pocket. At that time, he was the son-in-law, and he was the only son-in-law in the Yong Kingdom.

"Prime Minister Guan, you are relieved. The housekeeper's children are all outstanding." Emperor Yong Jing looked at the old Prime Minister Guan and said.

"Hehe, the emperor has praised you absurdly. Those children in the minister's family are not prudent yet, and they can't make things happen." After speaking, Prime Minister Guan glanced at the eldest grandson, quite helplessly. Perhaps he was spoiled. Problem, when can it be corrected!

"The prime minister is too modest." Emperor Yong Jing said.

Before Wang Siyou reported his name, Emperor Yongjing said, "So you are Wang Siyou, hehe, I have wanted to see you for a long time."

All the ministers looked at each other, who is this Wang Siyou, why did the emperor want to see him so early on?

Emperor Yongjing didn't hold back, and said bluntly, "You may not know him, but you must all use the porcelain he made. Recently, there is a kind of transparent porcelain in Yongguo called glass, and this glass is Wang Siyou. I did it.” After Emperor Yongjing finished speaking, the whole audience was in an uproar, all the ministers were looking at Wang Siyou, sizing him up, some ministers had Wang Siyou’s works, some didn’t, but they all had seen Wang Siyou’s works, Qianjin It was hard to find, and in addition, Wang Siyou came to Chang'an to rush for the exam, and he hadn't made glass for a long time, and those stocks at home must have been sold out and left empty.

Wang Siyou bit the bullet, cupped his hands like all the ministers to salute, all the ministers also looked at him with admiration, they all treated each other with courtesy, and politely returned the salute.Emperor Yongjing intended to introduce Wang Siyou to win the first impression of the ministers, so that he could be established as the number one scholar.If there is no foreshadowing, it will be difficult for the butler to make him the champion directly!Not to mention those ministers, they all looked at Prime Minister Guan's face, so naturally they wanted to recommend Guan Nuo as the number one scholar in the current department.

"Okay, all the lovers have met these five people, then I will test them one question, whoever answers well, I will make him the number one scholar!" Emperor Yong Jing said to the crowd.

The five of Wang Siyou cupped their hands and said, "The grassroots are all ears, please ask the emperor to give me a question."

Emperor Yongjing touched his mustache, and asked a little seriously, "How can I do it so that the common people will submit?"
