It’s Better to be the Empress Dowager

Chapter 12



Chapter 11 study

King Jing came back, everyone did not dare to breathe, even Zhao Zixun lowered his head and did not dare to get up. Master Tang secretly glanced at both sides with his eyes, thinking that he would wait when he didn’t stand out at this time.

Teacher Tang said softly: “Hui Jing, you have misunderstood. The little girl came to greet you, you did not come back, the little girl should be waiting. I used to be alone, but I did not expect to meet Sister Zhou and Sister Ren here today. Shi Zi felt it was a coincidence, so he stopped and asked us a few words.”

Tang Shishi was stepping on Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun everywhere, so he said clearly that the two of them knew that today’s prince would come to greet them, so they pretended to come over and “encounter”. Ren Yujun’s eyes widened as soon as he heard it. Zhou Shunhua didn’t hesitate and said, “These days we live in Liuyunyuan and don’t leave home. Where do we know the movement outside? We are here to serve His Royal Highness Jing. But I just can’t eat in the day. Sister Ren and I are deeply afraid. Today, I bravely come out to see if we can do something for the palace. I am stupid, and naturally not as smart as Girl Tang, so today I thought of sharing the worries for the palace. ”

Master Tang insinuates Zhou Shunhua’s bad intentions, and Zhou Shunhua returned it intact. Zhou Shunhua asked for something else, did Tang Shishi not have it?

Zhao Chengjun was questioning Zhao Zixun, but Zhao Zixun didn’t explain a word, and these women were vying for a while. Zhao Chengjun had no interest in these careful thoughts of them, and he even felt that it was a mistake that he stopped talking to Master Tang. Zhao Chengjun retracted 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.

Master Tang was about to fight Zhou Shunhua, but the target person she wanted to fight for was gone before she made any effort. Master Tang was surprised for a moment, and immediately left Zhou Shunhua behind and followed inside.

The people of Yan’an Academy saw Master Tang actually walked in, and cast all their shocked eyes. Teacher Tang thought he didn’t know, but he still followed Zhao Zixun’s cheeky, and followed Zhao Zixun into the room. Zhao Zixun glanced back in surprise, Master Tang had already found a place, leaned on the corner with his hands, and stood up like a decoration.

Zhao Zixun didn’t even react to this set of actions, so Master Tang set himself up. I don’t know whether to say that she is funny or not.

Zhao Chengjun had taken the lead, Zhao Zixun dared not delay, so he hurried in. Across a partition door, Master Tang heard King Jing’s voice inside unhurriedly: “How is your schoolwork these few days?”

“Father has a fate, and Erchen dare not slack off. Erchen wrote a policy theory yesterday…”

The golden censer on the counter slowly spit out green smoke, Zhao Zixun’s voice was mixed with the fragrance, and it seemed to have become ethereal and low. Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun didn’t know when they were standing next to Master Tang, and Ren Yujun did not move his lips, and a sentence popped out from between his teeth: “Sister Tang has a foresight and is admirable.”

The irony in Ren Yujun’s words is very strong. As if he could not understand Ren Yujun’s laughing at her, Master Tang accepted it with a smile: “Thank you for the compliment, you will always admire it in the future.”

In it, after Zhao Zixun finished his strategy and theories, Zhao Chengjun didn’t think much, so he directly pointed out Zhao Zixun’s omissions. Master Tang has never studied the stereotypes, and I don’t know how to write policy theory, but just by listening to the words of King Jing, I can feel that Zhao Chengjun’s literary attainments are superior to Zhao Zixun’s.

Master Tang was slightly surprised. King Jing was ordered to station in the northwest. She thought that such frontier officials were all martial artists. But it is not surprising that King Jing is not an ordinary military commander, he is the first-grade prince, Sejong’s biological son. He had the throne since he was born, and he didn’t need to read the imperial examination, so he could do what he wanted, but this did not mean that his literature was poor.

Even the eunuchs in the palace are literate, and even the most inexperienced prince is better than the scholars provided by the poor family.

Master Tang suddenly remembered Qi Jingsheng. The Qi family was also a merchant. The whole family didn’t know a few words together. He didn’t expect this generation to have such a good seed as Qi Jingsheng. The grandfather of the Qi family was extremely happy. He regarded Qi Jingsheng as the hope of the family since he was a child, and Qi Jingsheng’s delicious and easy-to-use everything closely followed Qi Jingsheng. When Qi Jingsheng’s deeds spread to the surrounding people, everyone was very envious. When Tang Shishi was a child, he really felt that Qi Jingsheng was an excellent husband-in-law.

If she hadn’t been calculated by Su Clan and Tang Yanyan, but married Qi Jingsheng as promised, she would probably keep thinking like this. Like everyone in the Qi family, she will look at Qi Jingsheng with admiration throughout her life, and count on Qi Jingsheng High School with heart and soul. If she could find a wife Juren Dangdang, it would probably be her greatest pursuit in her life.

However, now, Master Tang listened to King Jing instructing Zhao Zi inquiring about his homework, and he had such thoughts about the past. There are so many Jinshi in the capital, so how about juren? The scholar of Wenyuange met the eunuch, and he was equally polite.

Master Tang knew that she could not go back anymore. When her portrait was given to the flower and bird ambassador, she was destined to take a completely different path.

Zhao Chengjun pointed, Zhao Zixun was flattered, and quickly 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 looked for opportunities to retire. Zhao Zixun glanced back when he left, and through the curtains, he could see several women standing behind the separate doors, shadowy and slim.

Zhao Zixun’s footsteps paused slightly. He stopped halfway and said to Zhao Chengjun: “Father, Wutong is clumsy and often can’t distinguish between books. Erchen wants to find two literate and dexterous servants, and follow him to the school to wait for the pen and ink.”

Shishi Tang was thinking about Qi Jingsheng, and he vaguely heard the school, and instantly regained consciousness. Master Tang was secretly alert, she knew that the plot point was coming.

This is a rare opportunity in the ages, not only Tang Shishi cares, but Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun are also active. Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun looked at each other quietly, literate, attentive, and dexterous. It is best to have a certain degree of literary skills. The two of them are just right.

Zhou Shunhua was unsure whether she wanted to go ahead, she wanted to live her life low-key, but she couldn’t let others bully. Such a good opportunity, if I missed it, there may not be another time…

When Zhou Shunhua hesitated, he suddenly saw Master Tang step forward, and was deeply blessed to the people inside: “Little girl Master Tang, I have learned the four books and five classics at home, and I can recognize most of the words. Common poems can also be memorized. Little girls don’t. Only talented, willing to share the worries for the world’s son.”

The words of Master Tang shocked everyone in the room. Zhou Shunhua was taken aback, and her heart sank for some reason. When she was still hesitating to make up her mind, Master Tang had already stepped forward to recommend her. Really speaking of knowledge, Master Tang must be far less than Zhou Shunhua. Why does Master Tang have such courage?

Zhou Shunhua questioned herself for the first time. In the past, she had always felt that she was smart and calm, unlike other women. The Zhou family’s unlearned sisters, the mediocre and gloomy court ladies in the palace, and even the vase beauties in the palace who only know how to fight for favor, are inferior to her. But now, Zhou Shunhua is not sure.

When Zhou Shunhua’s mind was shaken, another person next to her also stepped forward and said, “My little girl, Ren Yujun, is willing to serve my son.”

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

Zhao Zixun found out that it was these two people who stood up in the end, which was really surprised. Especially Master Tang, she dared to be the first to speak. Zhao Zixun scanned Zhou Shunhua’s eyes and asked, “I heard that you are the second daughter of Cai Guogong’s mansion and want to come to read poetry and books since childhood. Both of them are willing, why only you do not move?”

Zhou Shunhua smiled bitterly, in vain that she pretended to be high-minded and often pityed the woman around her. In fact, she was the most pitiful one. She is not as fierce as Master Tang, she can’t even see her good sisters.

In vain, she digs out her heart to be kind to Ren Yujun, and sincerely treats Ren Yujun as her sister.

Zhou Shunhua lowered her head and blessed her body, and said in a low voice: “The little girl is stupid and dare not show her ugliness. If the son doesn’t dislike it, the little girl is willing to do the best for the son.”

Sitting on the head, Zhao Chengjun glanced at Zhao Zixun lightly, clearly knowing Zhao Zixun’s thoughts. Zhao Zixun chuckled slowly and said, “Oh? It’s not a coincidence. Two people in the school are enough, but you have three. How do you choose?”

Master Tang sighed silently in his heart, two peaches killed three scholars, and Zhao Zi asked for a good method. No wonder Zhou Shunhua spent his entire life fighting in the harem. With such an emperor, there would be no disputes between women and disputes would arise.

But Shishi Tang is not the kind of weak woman who is sentimental and dared to cry secretly after being wronged. Shishi Tang has always been in direct contact with each other. Such things as face care and self-sacrifice would not happen to Master Tang.

Master Tang immediately said: “I have the best knowledge, so the elder might as well consider me first.”

Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun both looked at Master Tang in surprise. Zhao Chengjun was originally skimming the tea foam. Hearing this, he couldn’t help but raise his head and glance at Master Tang.

I really dare to say.

Master Tang answered calmly, without blinking her eyes, and said: “After the show girl enters the palace, the empress dowager chooses the best candidates to enter the Chuxiu Palace for training. I have been at the top of the Chuxiu Palace for three years. Mother Feng even personally said that I am the first of all women. The words of the empress dowager must not be false, right? Therefore, I said that I have the first knowledge. Is there a problem?”

Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun choked together. Everyone in the room knows that Master Tang is opening his eyes and talking nonsense, this ranking is not viewed like this at all. But this is what the queen mother said, even if everyone knows it’s wrong, they can’t refute it.

Master Tang not only blocked Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun, but also Zhao Zixun couldn’t get off the stage. Zhao Zixun recognized the strange woman who was protecting him alone that day, and wanted to take the opportunity to help Zhou Shunhua. He had never thought of putting vulgar women like Master Tang in front of him. As a result, his original plan was completely messed up by Master Tang.

However, Zhao Zixun’s words could not be doubted by a small elder son. Zhao Zixun could only accept Tang Shishi and drag Zhou Shunhua in by the way. When he was about to speak, a voice suddenly came from the upper head.

Zhao Chengjun stopped Zhao Zixun’s words, saying: “Queen Dowager Jinkou Yuyan, the person she judged is naturally extraordinary. Since Miss Tang is very literary, then it happens that there is one person missing in this king’s study, it is you.”

Master Tang was stunned, she was stunned for a long time, then raised her head in amazement: “Huh?”

A person with the appearance of a waiter bowed his head and coughed. He glanced at Master Tang, and said in a low voice, “The prince is good, Xiaozhu Tang, why don’t you thank you?”
