Chapter 199 Fighting

  Since that day, Jiang Luo has made things difficult for her from time to time, which makes Shao Yao's hatred for her grow day by day. Even so, he became more respectful on the surface.

  Gu Xiujing sat on the couch, rolled up her white trousers, and the unhealed wound on her leg was shocking.

  Shaoyao brings warm water, which is boiled and blended with herbs, and the emerald green water exudes a faint bitter taste.

  Jiang Luo sat aside, watching Shao Yao lowered her eyes and wiped the cotton cloth over the wound. Seeing that Shaoyao was about to tidy up, Jiang Luo finally smiled and said, "It would be a pity for a girl like Shaoyao who is so ingenious and handy to just be a servant girl..."

   Shaoyao paused, then continued to help Gu Xiujing scrub the wound as if nothing had happened, and responded lightly: "Madam, I'm flattered."

  Jiang Luo sneered: "There is an opportunity in front of you now, it depends on whether you can grasp it or not." Jiang Luo looked directly at Shao Yao, with strong disdain in her eyes, as if she had already won.

   Shaoyao's fingertips trembled and she still lowered her head: "I don't know what Madam wants the servant to do?"

"You don't have to be afraid, it's naturally a great thing." Jiang Luo sneered contemptuously, her eyes contemptuous: "You have served the prince for a while, so naturally I can't treat you badly. I can't bear it. It just so happens that the second son who is in charge of the mansion is about to marry a wife. After thinking about it, you are the only one who is the most suitable. If you are pointed out to him as the right wife, would you be willing?"

  Jiang Luo's words made Shao Yao's heart tremble suddenly, her long nails scratched Gu Xiujing's wound, and blood overflowed from the wound in an instant.

   Seeing that she had caused a catastrophe, Shao Yao hurriedly knelt down: "I beg Madam to spare my life, this slave has no second thoughts, I beg Madam to let this slave go."

  Gu Xiujing didn't know why Shaoyao was so afraid, she only thought that her mind was still on her, and she frowned tightly and said nothing.

   "Look, I also have a good heart." Jiang Luo clapped her hands pretendingly, and then told Yun Jin beside her: "Help Miss Shaoyao up."

  Shao Yao turned pale with fright when she heard this: "Madam, I beg you to hold your hands high. This servant girl is just a small maidservant, so how dare she overpower the second son who is in charge. This servant servant only wants to serve the young lady well in this life, and has never thought of getting married."

  She knows about the son who is in charge. He is proficient in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling.

  Shao Yao glanced at Jiang Luo's stomach, her teeth pressed tightly against her tongue, and she almost tasted the smell of blood.

   "There's no way a little girl won't marry." Jiang Luo waved her hands impatiently: "Go down, and show someone crying like this."

  At this time, Yun Jin stepped forward, supported Shao Yao's shoulders, and comforted softly: "You don't have to be afraid, the young lady is the most kind-hearted. If you don't want to, the lady will naturally not force it."

   Shao Yao secretly sighed in her heart, Yun Jin is so kind, she actually believed such nonsense.

  She could see clearly that although Mrs. Shizi had a pretty face, she had a heart of snakes and scorpions.

  Out of the wing room, Shao Yao looked at the lantern in the corridor and secretly made up her mind. Even if she dies, she will bite off a piece of Jiang Luo's flesh. But the most important thing to her now is naturally the child in her womb.

  Qin Huaisu returned to Beijing, and Princess Xining also came to Dasheng. Emperor Jin'an got the news, and left the palace the next day and returned to Beijing.

  The emperor traveled in a grand manner, with beautiful cars, beauties, a dazzling array of decorations, and a mighty guard of honor.

  The chief minister is in front, the general is escorting the chariot, the imperial servant is driving the chariot, eighty-one chariots, another thousand chariots, and more than ten thousand cavalry guards. The cover is nearly one meter high. The disc is a golden yellow dome with four inlaid jade plates. The curtain is made of three layers of blue satin, and each layer is embroidered with patterns of golden clouds, dragons and feathers.

The "Qing Tour Team" composed of two teams of cavalry and six-line infantry team cleared away the people who had gathered to watch the excitement, and the emperor sat dangling in a sedan chair that could only be lifted by thirty-six people. into the palace.

   It took a lot of effort just to go back and forth this time. I originally went there to escape the summer heat, but the heat was unbearable when I went, and it was bright and refreshing when I came. How could my not-so-solid body be able to withstand such a tiring journey, and I felt unwell halfway back to the city, so I hurriedly carried it into the palace, and rushed to the imperial hospital as soon as I entered the gate.

   Zhaoyue heard that the grand emperor had returned to the palace, and sent people to ask him three or four times, and posted a lot of invitations, but no one summoned him.

After inquiring again, I found out that the emperor was seriously ill this time, no matter how anxious I was to see him, I had to put it on hold, leaving myself anxious to eat and drink, worrying about what happened in Xining and because of Qin Huai Su and Jiang Changning's affairs were in a state of desperation, and there was a ring of blisters around their mouths because of dissatisfaction, and they finally lived in peace for two days.

Jiang Changning made a lot of preparations for Master Qingbai's acceptance of apprentices. He spent time in the study reviewing the past and learning the new, and studied hard. Seeing that his position is more concerned with the philosophy of human care, he spent the rest of his life looking for a companion who could resonate with him. It is said that the content of a competition is about this.

  Jiang Changning was very busy, but Jiang Luo seemed much more relaxed.

Although Gu Xiujing vacated the study room for her in order to show her support, and even invited a husband from outside to teach her, thinking to give her some knowledge before the competition, who knew that Jiang Luoyang would be leisurely after closing the door. Lying on the reclining chair and reading idle books, Yun Jin diligently peeled the chilled crystal grapes beside her.

   It was like this for several days in a row, and the old master who was invited outside sighed again and again.

  Jiang Luo is not worried at all, she has a system in her body, and there is no problem that can stop her from becoming a disciple of Master Innocent.

  The day is coming soon, the sky is beautiful, the blue sky is like a fine blue brocade, and the white clouds are dotted in it, which is very eye-catching and gratifying. The weather is cool, the breeze is blowing head-on, and there is still a hint of summer warmth.

  Because of Master Qing's world-famous reputation, countless people came here for it. The original plan for the competition in the mansion had to be temporarily changed, and the trustee borrowed the space in the academy to accommodate all the candidates.

  Several people from Jiang's house came, Jiang Changbai and Jiang Changning stood together, Jiang Changyuan followed from a distance with his maid, she didn't know much about these knowledge, so she came to watch the fun under the influence of the elder sister.

  Jiang Luo came late with Yun Jin, because she was the only one in the Duke's mansion, so she simply stood beside Jiang's mansion.

All the people on the field, men and women, were mostly dressed in plain clothes like scholars. Some girls **** their long hair and wore chest wraps to make themselves neatly dressed. Jiang Changning also tied her waist-length hair around her head with a piece of silk Finally, she wore a light blue double-breasted skirt, walked freely, and raised her hand to reveal a warm and slender white jade bracelet on her wrist.

And Jiang Luo was originally here to show off the limelight. She put on red makeup and brocade, and wished she could put seven or eight phoenix hairpins on her head to show her dignity and the importance that the Gu family attaches to her. Now she is particularly eye-catching among the crowd. .

The time was almost up, and the book boy came out with a group of servants in a mighty manner. When they signed up, they all handed in a copy of their own works. Articles, there are still people who draw pens and paint with wonderful pens...

  The people present were all talented and practical, but unfortunately, Master Qing only accepts one apprentice, so the first test started when he signed up.

  The things submitted by these people were judged as high or low, and only half of the works were kept, and the remaining half were rejected.

  The book boy read the list and called out the people who advanced in the first test, and the servants who followed behind showed the corresponding works at the same time to show the fairness of the test.

   "This list is sorted according to the score from low to high. Those who remember the name can participate in the follow-up competition, Lu Renjia, Zhang San... Jiang Changning, Jiang Luo."

   There was a sigh in the crowd, some who failed the exam sighed with bitterness on their faces, and some who had tried were full of joy. Jiang Changning had no suspense about being able to pass the first test, but after hearing what the book boy said, he knew that the list was sorted and that Jiang Luo was ahead of her, so he slightly raised his eyebrows.

  After thinking about it, some of the rest of the people were eager to watch the excitement, while others were aggrieved and wanted to carefully observe the level of the person who won the first place. They flocked to the young man who displayed the work.

  Jiang Changning handed in an extremely delicate ink painting. The ink color as soft as water is sprinkled on the rice paper as thin as a cicada's wing, and the ink color seeps into the paper, presenting a picture of landscapes in the south of the Yangtze River. There are many peaks and mountains, the clear water is like a mirror, the green mountains are floating in the water, and the reflections are graceful. The scenery on both sides of the bank is like a gallery of hundreds of miles. The lines give people a light, soft, moist and natural feeling, and the artistic conception is wonderful. The light shines through the paper to inlaid a layer of gold on the landscape in this painting.

   A group of people stopped in front of the painting and exclaimed: "Wonderful! Wonderful!"

  The old man with a beard watching the excitement couldn't help but praise: "This painting outlines the essence of mountains and rivers with a few strokes, and the majesty of nature's creations is so beautiful!" The rest all applauded.

   "In my opinion, this poem is really a swan song!"

   Someone moved to the poem submitted by Jiang Luo and exclaimed, calling a large audience.

  I saw Jiang Luo’s page saying:

   "If you want to ask about the border of a bicycle, it belongs to the country of Juyan.

  Conquer Peng out of Hansai, and return to Hutian.

  The lonely smoke in the desert is straight, and the sun is setting in the long river.

  Xiao Guan is protected by Yan Ran whenever he is waiting to ride. "

   "Wonderful! Wonderful! Where is this author?"

When did the students in Beijing see the magnificence and majesty of the frontier fortress? Jiang Luo's poem concretized the scenery in a few words, especially the line "the desert is solitary, the long river sets in the sun" seems to describe the scenery in front of everyone's eyes. A scene of solitary smoke rising straight up in the vast desert, and the setting sun on the endless Yellow River.

  Jiang Luo smiled, and walked out from behind the crowd with her head held high, "My little girl is not talented, everyone praises me absurdly."

  Where did Jiang Luo know how to write poems and songs? He asked the system in a hurry, and it was just a one-handed masterpiece extracted from the database of several times.

This is a coincidence, the scene of King Yan leading the troops to the expedition is still in everyone's minds, Dasheng and Xining face to face, this poem reminds people of the strange and magnificent scenery outside the Great Wall, the picture is open, the artistic conception is powerful, unconsciously excited Thinking of the surging emotion in the man's heart, he immediately applauded again and again.

  Jiang Luo accepted everyone's compliments calmly, without any guilt at all.

  Jiang Changning got close just now, and when she heard her thank the system from the bottom of her heart, she almost guessed the essence of the matter, but when she looked at this poem, she couldn't help being surprised by the original poet.

"These two works turned out to be girls from the Jiang family!" A scholar who recognized the two exclaimed, "I have seen Jiang Hanlin before, and his literary talents are outstanding. I didn't expect the two girls to be so outstanding. It really is a talented person!"

  If Mrs. Jiang knew that the children of the Jiang family had stole the limelight in today's competition in front of talented scholars and beauties who accounted for almost half of Dasheng, she would probably be overjoyed and enter the ancestral hall to recite a few words about Amitabha.

  Master Qingbai never showed up. He hid in the back room and listened to the movement outside, and he was extremely optimistic about Jiang Changning and Jiang Luo from the bottom of his heart.

   Half of the people were screened in this round, and the rest could only wait outside. Those who passed the test entered the main hall for the next round of competition.

  There have been rumors that Master Qing pays more attention to the thoughts of the candidates. As expected, this question is for them to answer how to treat the word "benevolence".

  This question is simple and simple. It can explain that benevolence is tolerance, tolerance, and benevolence. But if it goes deeper, it will extend a lot of things. Many people are stuck on the surface and can't find a breakthrough.

  Master Qingbai has been sitting in the room, separated from the examinees outside by a thin door panel, listening to the outsiders expressing their opinions, his expression has not been disturbed, and he even bowed his head and blew tea foam in his spare time.

   It wasn't until he heard Jiang Changning's words that he raised his head with great interest.

Jiang Changning split the characters, thought about it carefully, and said: "The character of benevolence takes people as the radical and the root. Benevolence treats people in an orderly and harmonious way, loves everyone and helps them all, treats others with benevolence, and promotes oneself and others." , expanded from relatives to the general public.”

   There was silence on the field, someone secretly glanced at Jiang Changning and nodded secretly.

  Jiang Luo paced unhurriedly, frowned after hearing Jiang Changning's words, and secretly urged in his heart, "System, have you found it? It's almost here! Tell me the answer!"

  【Searching for the host, the scope has been expanded to three thousand world databases...】

After a while, knowing that the field was silent again, the bookboy nodded behind the door, picked up a pen to mark something on the paper, and said again: "There are still three people in this competition who have not answered. Xiangnei should answer the questions as soon as possible, if the incense is burned out and there is still no answer, it will be deemed as a disqualification from the competition."

  Jiang Luo pretended to be calm, and her back was already covered in sweat. She just made a high-profile appearance and showed such a big face, so she couldn't be in this place.

   Fortunately, the system made a sound when Xiang was only one finger away.

  Jiang Luo copied word by word, "The word benevolence is simple, but with benevolence as the core, it can be extended to righteousness, propriety, wisdom, faith, forgiveness, loyalty, filial piety, and brotherhood..."

  Jiang Luo stumbled a bit when she said it, but the profound meaning in her words was far beyond what these people could think of, and the eyes of all those present were brightened when they heard it.
