Chapter 119: people's hearts

Tang Shishi insinuated that Zhou Shunhua had bad intentions, and Zhou Shunhua returned it intact. Zhou Shunhua asked for something else, why didn't Tang Shishi have it

Zhao Chengjun was questioning Zhao Zixun at first, but Zhao Zixun did not explain a word, and these women were scrambling for each other. Zhao Chengjun had no interest in their little thoughts, and he even felt that it was a mistake to stop talking to Tang Shishi. Zhao Chengjun withdrew his gaze and walked directly into the courtyard without saying a word.

When Zhao Zixun saw this, he didn't dare to delay and quickly followed.

Tang Shishi was about to compete with Zhou Shunhua, but before she made any achievements, the target person she wanted to fight for left. Tang Shishi was surprised for a moment, and immediately abandoned Zhou Shunhua and followed him inside.

When the people in Yan'an Academy saw that Tang Shishi actually walked in, they all cast a shocked look. Tang Shishi pretended not to know, and still followed Zhao Zixun cheekily, and followed Zhao Zixun into the room. Zhao Zixun glanced back in surprise, Tang Shishi had already found a place, and leaned his hand in the corner, standing like a decoration.

Zhao Zixun didn't react to this set of actions, so Tang Shishi set himself up. I don't know whether to say that she is interested or not.

Zhao Chengjun was already seated in the main seat, Zhao Zixun did not dare to delay, and hurried in. Across a partition door, Tang Shishi heard King Jing's voice inside: "How is your schoolwork these days?"

"Father's life, Erchen dare not slack off. Erchen wrote a strategy yesterday..."

The golden incense burner on the desk slowly exhaled green smoke, Zhao Zixun's voice mixed in the aroma, and it seemed to have become ethereal and low. Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun did not know when they were standing beside Tang Shishi, Ren Yujun didn't move his lips, and a sentence popped out from between his teeth: "Sister Tang has a foresight, which is admirable."

The irony in Ren Yujun's words was very strong. Tang Shishi seemed to understand that Ren Yujun was laughing at her, and accepted it with a smile: "Thank you for your praise, you will continue to admire her in the future."

After Zhao Zixun finished talking about his strategy, Zhao Chengjun didn't think much about it, he just pointed out the omissions of Zhao Zixun. Tang Shishi had never studied Bagu, so he didn't know how to write strategy theory, but just listening to King Jing's words, he could feel that Zhao Chengjun's literary attainments were higher than Zhao Zixun's.

Tang Shishi was slightly surprised. King Jing was ordered to be stationed in the northwest. She thought that such frontier officials were all warriors. But it's not surprising that King Jing is not an ordinary military general, he is the Prince of Zheng Yipin, the biological son of Sejong. He was on the throne as soon as he was born, and he didn't need to study for the imperial examination, so he could naturally do what he wanted to do, but this did not mean that he was poor in literature.

Even the eunuchs in the palace can read and write, and even the most ignorant and incompetent prince is better than the scholar who can be contributed by the whole family.

Tang Shishi suddenly remembered Qi Jingsheng. The Qi family was also a businessman, and the whole family didn't even know a few words together. Unexpectedly, this generation has such a good seedling as Qi Jingsheng. The old man of the Qi family was very happy. He regarded Qi Jingsheng as the family's hope since he was a child. When Qi Jingsheng's deeds were spread to the surrounding people, everyone was envious. When Tang Shishi was a child, he really thought that Qi Jingsheng was an excellent husband.

If she was not calculated by Su Shi and Tang Yanyan, but married Qi Jingsheng as promised, she would probably keep thinking this way. Like everyone in the Qi family, she will stare at Qi Jingsheng with admiration all her life, and she will look to Qi Jingsheng High School with all her heart. If she can get a wife, it will probably be her biggest pursuit in her life.

However, now, Tang Shishi listened to King Jing's guidance on Zhao Zixun's homework, and he had only such an idea about the past. There are so many jinshi in the capital, not to mention Juren? When the scholar Wenyuange met the eunuch, he was equally polite.

Tang Shishi knew that she could not go back. When her portrait was given to the Flower and Bird Envoy, she was destined to take a completely different path.

Zhao Chengjun pointed, Zhao Zixun was flattered, and hurriedly wrote down word by word. After reporting their homework, Zhao Chengjun and Zhao Zixun had no more topics to talk about. The father and son were relatively silent for a while, and Zhao Zixun found an opportunity to retire. Zhao Zixun glanced back as he left, and through the curtains, he could see several women standing behind the door, shadowy and slender.

Zhao Zixun paused in his footsteps. He stopped in the middle and said to Zhao Chengjun, "Father, Wutong is clumsy and often can't tell the difference between books. Erchen wants to find two slaves who are literate and dexterous, and follow Erchen to the school to serve the brush and ink."

Tang Shishi was thinking about Qi Jingsheng when he vaguely heard the academy, and instantly returned to his senses. Tang Shishi secretly woke up, she knew that the plot point was coming.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, not only Tang Shishi cared about it, but Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun also became active. Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun looked at each other quietly. They were literate, careful, and ingenious. It was best to have some literary skills. The two of them were just right.

Zhou Shunhua was not sure whether to stand out. She wanted to live a low-key life, but she couldn't let others bully her. Such a good opportunity, missed, there may not be another time...

When Zhou Shunhua was hesitating, he suddenly saw Tang Shishi take a step forward and said to the people inside: "Little girl Tang Shishi, she has studied the Four Books and Five Classics at home, and she can recognize the general characters and memorize common poems. Talent, willing to share the worries for the prince."

Tang Shishi's words startled everyone in the room. Zhou Shunhua was taken aback, and for some reason, her heart sank heavily. When she was still hesitant to make up her mind, Tang Shishi had already stood up and recommended herself. In terms of knowledge, Tang Shishi must be far inferior to Zhou Shunhua. Why is Tang Shishi so bold

Zhou Shunhua questioned herself for the first time. In the past, she always felt that she was smart and calm, different from other women. The uneducated and incompetent sisters of the Zhou family, the mediocre and gloomy maids in the palace, and even the vase beauties of the palace who only know how to compete for favor are not as good as her. But now, Zhou Shunhua is not sure.

When Zhou Shunhua's mind was shaken, another person beside her also stepped forward and said, "The little girl Ren Yujun is willing to serve the prince."

Zhou Shunhua looked at Ren Yujun in surprise. Ren Yujun's eyelashes drooped and he stared at the ground motionless, as if he could not feel the movement around him. Zhou Shunhua looked at Ren Yujun's fair face, and realized for the first time that she might have taken it for granted.

Zhao Zixun was really surprised to find out that it was these two people who stood up in the end. Especially Tang Shishi, she dared to be the first to speak. Zhao Zixun glanced at Zhou Shunhua and asked, "I heard that you are the second daughter of Cai Guogong's mansion, and want to come and read poetry and books since childhood. Both of them are willing, why is it only you who don't move?"

Zhou Shunhua smiled wryly, ignoring her self-righteousness, and often sympathizing with the women around her. In fact, she was the most pitiful one. She is not as decisive and ruthless as Tang Shishi, and she can't even see through her own good sister.

It was a waste of her life to treat Ren Yujun well, and she sincerely regarded Ren Yujun as her sister.

Zhou Shunhua bowed his head and said in a low voice, "The little girl is stupid and doesn't dare to show her ugliness. If the prince does not dislike it, the little girl is willing to serve the prince."

Zhao Chengjun sat at the top, glanced at Zhao Zixun lightly, and knew exactly what Zhao Zixun was thinking. Zhao Zixun gave a slow laugh and said, "Oh? That's not a coincidence. It's enough to bring two people in the school, but there are three of you. How should you choose?"

Tang Shishi snorted silently in his heart, two peaches killed three scholars, and Zhao Zixun asked for a good method. No wonder Zhou Shunhua fought in the harem all his life. With such an emperor, there are no disputes between women, but disputes will arise.

But Tang Shishi is not the kind of weak woman who is sentimental and who only dares to cry behind her back when she is wronged. Shame on face and sacrifice oneself for others will not happen to Tang Shishi.

Tang Shishi immediately said: "I have the best knowledge, the prince might as well consider me first."

Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun both looked at Tang Shishi in surprise. Zhao Chengjun was smearing tea foam. Hearing this, he couldn't help but look up and glance at Tang Shishi.

Really dare to say.

Tang Shishi replied calmly, without blinking her eyes, she said: "After the beautiful girl enters the palace, the empress dowager will select the best candidates in the Chuxiu Palace for training. For three years in the Chuxiu Palace, I have always been among the best. This time I came to King Jing to confiscate the land. Madam Feng even said that I am the head of all the daughters. The Queen Mother's words can never be false, right? Therefore, I said that my knowledge is the first, is there any problem?"

Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun choked together. Everyone in the room knew that Tang Shishi was talking nonsense with his eyes open, and this ranking was not viewed that way at all. But this is the Queen Mother's words, even if everyone knows it is wrong, they can't refute it.

Not only did Tang Shishi block Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun, but even Zhao Zixun couldn't get off the stage. Zhao Zixun recognized the strange woman who protected him alone that day, and wanted to take the opportunity to help Zhou Shunhua, but he never thought of putting a vulgar woman like Tang Shishi in front of him. As a result, his original plan was completely messed up by Tang Shishi's involvement.

However, Zhao Zixun's words could not be suspected by a little prince, Zhao Zixun could only accept Tang Shishi and pull Zhou Shunhua in by the way. Just as he was about to speak, a voice suddenly came from above.

Zhao Chengjun stopped what Zhao Zixun was about to say, and said, "The Empress Dowager Jinkou Yuyan said, the people she judged are naturally extraordinary. Since Miss Tang is excellent in literature, it just so happens that there is one person missing in this king's study, it's you."

Tang Shishi was stunned, she was stunned for a long time, then raised her head: "Ah?"

A person who looked like a servant bowed his head and coughed. He glanced at Tang Shishi and said in a soft voice: "Your Highness is kind, Tang Xiaozhu, why don't you thank him?"

Tang Shishi and his entourage were beautiful women sent by Wang Shi, and they came to serve King Jing at the order of Empress Yao. However, judging by the fact that no one cared about them along the way, I am afraid that King Jing did not expect them so much.

Also, how could a feudal lord with a strong reputation and a strong reputation be willing to be called a palace beauty, but in fact it is the eyes of the Queen Mother who are staring at her.

Since entering the fief, Tang Shishi has clearly felt that the order has taken on a new look. The refugees on the road are almost invisible, and even the official roads are much smoother. Tang Shishi looked at the scene outside and thought that it was no wonder that the Queen Mother was worried about King Jing.

The little emperor of Jinling is only eleven years old this year, and Uncle Jing of the North is in his British years, guarding the fortress and holding half of the troops in the world. Of the people in Miyagi, who can really relax

When Tang Shishi was in a trance, the beauty in the car smiled and said, "Sister Tang, what are you looking at, so fascinated?"

Tang Shishi returned to his senses, lowered the curtain of the car, and said, "I'm stuffy, just look outside to get some air."

The person who spoke was Ji Xinxian, who was also a beauty who was sent to Prince Jing's mansion, and had never been convinced by Tang Shishi. In fact, there are five people in the car at the moment, only Tang Shishi has the lowest background. They don't say that they are in the same car. Even if they pull all the beauties on this trip, no one will have a lower identity than Tang Shishi, a merchant woman.

Ji Xinxian is the daughter of the prefect of Yangzhou anyway, so why is she jealous of Tang Shishi? Speaking of this matter, Tang Shishi had to sigh and reveal his face.

No talent, who made her look good. The empress dowager was very fond of Tang Shishi, and she personally ordered Tang Shishi to be the head of the beauties in this vassal. Among the people, Tang Shishi was the first in everything.

Ji Xinxian was angry when she saw Tang Shishi's triumphant attitude, she leaned on her companion, pinched the handkerchief, and said, "It's not a noble girl's act to lift the curtain and look on the road, look at Sister Zhou, you won't do such an indecent act. matter."

Zhou Shunhua had been silent for a long time, and when he heard this, he lifted his eyes and gave everyone a light glance: "What's my business with you arguing with you? Let's live in peace, if you are heard by Feng mama, you must be scolded. "

Mammy Feng was a close confidant of the Queen Mother. She was nearly forty years old and had never been married. She was quite ruthless. Ji Xinxian closed her mouth in fright when she heard Feng Mama, but Tang Shishi didn't care. Who made her look good? Madam Feng hated Tang Shishi's face the most, and it was too late to take care of her. How could she be punished
