She waved her hands happily, and when she turned around, Liu Yin's expression collapsed in an instant. It's a pity that she had been waiting in line for a long time for her Yunlu Cake.
After walking far away, Xiyun couldn't help leaning her head over and said softly: "Miss, what if His Highness finds out that you didn't do it?"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't like her young lady at all, if she is found to be deceiving her again, she will definitely be more alienated, what should I do.
Glancing at her, Liu Yin curled her lips indifferently, "Do you think Brother Prince will eat my food?"
Based on the prince's attitude towards the original owner, if the other party is really willing to eat, Liu Yin's name will be written upside down in the future.
Hearing this, Xiyun was also taken aback, and nodded instantly, thinking that her young lady is really smart, so that if she expresses her heart, she will not be discovered, it really kills two birds with one stone.
Just after the early court, there were many officials sitting in the council hall, most of them were officials from the Ministry of Officials, because the imperial examination was coming up every three years, this time I don't know who participated in a copy, saying that the officials in the court and the middle school had a very strong business atmosphere, and the children of poor families Unable to stand out, so this selection was presided over by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself, and some thoughtful people became more cautious.
Holding a box of pastries, Xia Yi scanned the hall after entering the hall, and his eyes finally fell on the man in the black robe at the desk in front of the hall. He stepped forward and bowed, "Your Highness."
The atmosphere in the council hall is not very good. If you look carefully, you can see that some officials are dodging, which makes people suspicious.
Looking up slightly, the man suddenly picked up a roll of bamboo slips on the table and handed it to him. Seeing this, Xia Yi also took it with both hands, opened it and studied it carefully.
"The wording is good, with a sense of free and easy heroism, but if I'm not mistaken, many of the ideas in it have been borrowed from the theories of some literati, and they are actually admitted to the test?"
Xia Yi frowned and glanced at the officials below, but no one responded to his gaze. It can be seen that there are still many people playing tricks in this imperial examination, and they are really daring.
The xuanpao man in front of the desk glanced quietly at the group of officials with different thoughts, "Before 9 o'clock today, I will hand over all the articles for membership selection in all states and counties to Gu."
When the words fell, the group of people below quickly said "yes", and then continued to do their own things with complaints. They knew that His Highness the Crown Prince was not easy to fool.
Seeing this, Xia Yi also sighed softly, wondering when this corrupt atmosphere in the court will improve.
"Why are you looking for Gu?" Qin Yan glanced at him.
Hearing this, Xia Yi quickly bowed and said, "The person His Highness asked the officials to look for last time already has a clue, but this person has lived in seclusion for a long time, and has always been dissatisfied with the court. optimism."
There is a pervasive atmosphere of factional strife in the court, which has made many noble and talented people feel disgusted. They would rather be an unknown person with idle clouds and wild cranes than enter the court as an official again, but His Royal Highness is also a person who loves talents , I just don’t know if I can persuade the other party.
"I'll tell Gu after I find the exact location." The man's voice was flat.
Seeing this, Xia Yi also nodded, thinking of something, his eyes suddenly fell on the box of pastries in his hand, and then he put the things on the desk, "I met Miss Liu Er in the palace earlier, this is what she dragged down the official to give The cakes you brought were said to be made by yourself, but I didn’t expect that reckless girl to be able to cook, so it can be seen that she has worked hard for His Highness."
At the end of the sentence, the person who was reviewing the official documents suddenly glanced at him indifferently, and the latter immediately coughed lightly, and quickly explained: "However, women are reserved, and this move is too indecent."
After finishing speaking, he immediately saluted and retreated. He had tried his best, but His Highness really didn't like that Liu Yin, so he was the most benevolent.
A box of pastries was placed on the desk full of official documents, and the blue-robed eunuch next to him took it away in a familiar way. His Highness has never liked these sweet and greasy things, even if it was sent by the empress. However, in order to reassure the empress, he "handled" all these.
Opening the box, he glanced at it, and suddenly took away one of the pastries, and said in surprise, "Isn't this Judezhai's greased paper?"
He just muttered, but the man at the desk paused for a moment before continuing to look at the official document.
—
Fortunately, the sun was not so bright in the morning. When Liu Yin came to the academy, the Taifu hadn't come yet, but the room was already full of young princes and princesses. Naturally, they were the nieces of the queen who had seen Liu Yin. , I just didn't expect the other party to come here, and I was a little surprised for a while.
The sixth princess, who was wearing a pink palace dress, greeted her immediately, "Sister Liu."
Even if this place is full of princes and princesses, Liu Yin needn't be afraid at all. These people all live in the harem, and they have to watch her aunt's face to get by. Unless her head is in the water, they will come to provoke her, the queen's niece.
Therefore, even in the palace, the original owner was very arrogant and domineering, and often bullied those princesses who did not deal with her, which can be said to be "evil".
"I thought it was too late. I wanted to bring you Judezhai's pastries, but unfortunately I threw them away in an accident." Liu Yin sat on her seat with a regretful face.
The sixth princess is the queen's own child, but her relationship with the original owner is so-so. It is true that the latter's temperament is really unpleasant.
The other party's words were taken as an initiative to show their goodwill to her. The sixth princess was a little unbelievable for a while, and then she smiled and shook her head, "It doesn't matter. In the afternoon, the queen mother specially asked someone to make my cousin's favorite thousand water cake, and asked me to ask my cousin to go there together. It's time to eat."
Even calling her cousin, Liu Yin naturally took advantage of the situation to build a good relationship with the other party, "Okay, I haven't gone to pay my aunt's greetings for a long time."
Suddenly, she felt that this domineering cousin was very talkative today, and the sixth princess was also relieved. It would be great if it would be the same in the future. When she heard that her mother said that she would let her cousin come to read with her, she was almost worried to death.
When the others saw that Miss Liu Er came to accompany the Sixth Princess to read, although she didn't show it on the surface, they were extremely disdainful in their hearts. No one knew that this daughter of the Liu family was illiterate, rude and shameless. He would chase His Highness the Crown Prince every day and ask her to read with him, fearing that he might not be as smart as a three-year-old child.
Liu Yin naturally doesn't care what other people think of her, but today she was in vain, Shen Yao said that she was caught in the cold and did not enter the palace, but the Taifu assigned a lot of homework, and the original owner was illiterate, Liu Yin I don't even know the words of this world.
But she is an adult at least, so she asked the sixth princess humbly, and wrote down all the words she saw, but the calligraphy made it difficult for her. She had never written calligraphy before, even though the sixth princess deliberately taught her how to write. Wrist, the written words still cannot bear to look directly at.
For a moment, it seemed that the sixth princess had become her reading companion, and the others were holding back their smiles, but they acted as if nothing had happened on the face, but it was Mrs. Shen who taught her how to write with great patience, and did not remember Liu Yin's past at all. Take the bullying of your daughter to heart.
Liu Yin's favor for this Taifu doubled, this is the real Confucian scholar with good conduct and everyone's demeanor.
After the class was over, Liu Yin took the words she wrote and prepared to take them back to destroy the corpse, but Princess Six patiently comforted her, "Cousin, don't worry, you are already very good, like me, you can't even write a few words at the beginning." It will take half a day to remember."
Liu Yin glanced at her, the problem is that she was only eight years old when she entered school, but she is seventeen now!
After making up her mind, Liu Yin vowed not to be an illiterate person. She just studied. She graduated with a master's degree at some point, so she would start all over again!
The sun at noon was very strong, and when they returned to Changchun Palace, both of them were extremely hot. As soon as they entered the inner hall, there was a hint of coolness, and what greeted their eyes was a luxurious and extraordinary hall. The atmosphere was particularly depressing and rigorous.
Liu Yin wiped the sweat from his forehead with a silk handkerchief, and walked into the inner hall with the sixth princess, only to see a middle-aged woman in a dark red Luan robe sitting on the big soft couch inside. , there are not many bead ornaments on the temples, but it is still difficult to hide the dignified dignity, presumably this is her queen aunt.
But Liu Yin's eyes fell on another man in the hall. He was dressed in a black robe, tall and tall, with a jade and gold crown. Liu Yin froze for a moment, not knowing whether to say she was lucky or not.
"Brother Huang, you are here too."
Seeing the person coming, the sixth princess greeted him immediately with a smile. She didn't know what to think, and then looked at Liu Yin behind her, "My cousin went to the academy with me today. She is very smart, and she can read a lot of words at once. Even Taifu Shen praised her."
Liu Yin: "..."
Her good cousin, can you stop boasting!
Hearing this, the queen was interested, and immediately waved to her niece, "What are you doing, why don't you come over and see your cousin soon."
She purposely sent a message to ask someone to come over, why is this girl still in a daze, she would have greeted her a long time ago.
Holding the roll of rice paper that was about to be destroyed, Liu Yin moved forward a few steps, imitating the original owner's demeanor, and looked at the man shyly and timidly, "Cousin."
Qin Yan glanced at her, then looked away, and suddenly said respectfully to the queen: "It's getting late, how about my son and minister having dinner with mother?"
Seeing that he refused to say a word to his niece, the queen was also very distressed, the prince was not her own after all, and she did not want to reveal some things too clearly, lest the mother and son become alienated.
Thinking up to this point, she still glanced at the maid next to her, "Chuan Shan."
The other party ignored her, but Liu Yin couldn't ignore the other party. After all, with the clingy character of the original owner, once she saw her sweetheart, she couldn't get rid of her, so she had to continue to stick her face to his cold ass.
Taking a deep breath, she immediately moved to the man's side with a smile on her face, and said sweetly: "Brother Prince, I went to school just for you, and I worked hard."
While speaking, Xu Shi didn't hold it tightly, and a slippery piece of rice paper suddenly fell down lightly in his hand. Fortunately, it happened to land at the man's feet.
Qin Yan's eyes drooped slightly, and the characters on the rice paper were crooked, like a child who had just entered school. The atmosphere in the inner hall instantly became awkward. Liu Yin blushed and quickly squatted down to pick up the paper.
"This... It's just an accident. Everything can't be done overnight, there must be a process of progress, right?" She hid her things behind her back solemnly.
The sixth princess also hesitated to speak and turned her head away, not daring to see her royal brother.
The queen also coughed lightly, and praised, "Yin'er is very good, it is good to have such a heart after all."
Liu Yin felt that she and the prince were obviously at odds, and would get bumped every time she made an embarrassment, but fortunately she was thick-skinned, so such a trivial matter.
Soon, she leaned over with a serious face again, and said very seriously: "Teacher said, you are not afraid of being stupid, but you are afraid of not being enterprising. Brother Prince, am I right?"
That pretty little face was still full of cuteness, and after studying for a day, she became more articulate. Just at this time, the palace servants had already served the meal, and Qin Yan turned sideways to help the queen, without saying a word. hair.
But Liu Yin followed him closely, blinking his eyes and asking persistently, "Am I not right?"
He didn't look back, and after a while, his thin lips parted slightly, "Yes."
