System, help me be an empress

Chapter 16 The Imperial Academy's Classwork
Even though it is still in the winter months, the sun today is warm, even the cold winter wind is gentle and gentle, and there is even a hint of greenness sprouting on the barren grass.

"Let me introduce, this is Li Si, a new student who joined the Imperial Academy."

The current Qiao Siye of the Guozijian is an old man in his early sixties, his single eyelids make him appear to be squinting all the time, his white beard has grown seven or eight centimeters, he speaks in a gentle manner, and is an imposing old man.

Xu Youxi's appearance is not as beautiful and aggressive as her mother's. You can stop wherever you want, and it will be a beautiful scenery, but Xu Youxi's good looks cannot be ignored. At the age of 16, he has a pair of crescent moon eyes when he smiles, and his body is both sweet and cool.

As soon as Xu Youxi appeared, many of the youths below who were originally not very energetic quietly straightened their backs.

"Humph, virtue." Probably only Xu Youxi, who was standing beside Qiao Siye, heard the other party's joke.

"Student Li Si, you can choose your own seat. There are still two seats left in the class, namely Pei Yao and He Muqing."

The women who have the opportunity to enter the Imperial Academy will basically not be too bad in status. If Xu Youxi grew up in Shangjing, she might be able to play with these two, so that she would not face this embarrassing situation at this time.

Pei Yao was dressed in white, sitting alone by the window, with a cold expression, as if unwilling to talk to others; He Muqing was wearing a light pink jacket and skirt, with a white bead flower on her head, lively and lively.

To be honest, Xu Youxi thinks both of them are very good! ! !
Well, she has to choose to sit in the middle!
As a future empress, don't you have the privilege of hugging left and right? ! !

Pei Yao turned her head to look at Xu Youxi, sneered suddenly, and sat beside He Muqing holding her book: "Qiao Siye, I'm not used to being next to strangers."

hostility! ! !

Where does the hostility come from? ? ?
Xu Youxi was puzzled, but still politely took the things to the vacant seat and sat down.

"Okay." Qiao Siye knocked on the table, "Everyone, be more friendly to the new classmates. Next is Assistant Professor Rong's lecture, everyone listen carefully."

As soon as Qiao Siye left, the person behind Xu Youxi patted her quietly.

The young man in front of me was about the same age as me, with handsome features, and looked clean and fresh in the school uniform of the Imperial College: "Don't be angry just now, Pei Yao didn't target you, at most... just a little bit of anger."

"anger!"

Isn't it indulgent?
"Everyone knows that you are the cousin of Assistant Professor Rong."

"?"

Who said that, I don't know!
"Pei Yao's father once wanted a son-in-law for his daughter, and happened to fall in love with Assistant Professor Rong, who was the best looking. As a result, Assistant Professor Rong refused to die, and Pei Yao became a joke in the circle. So much so that she saw Assistant Professor Rong When it comes to people or things, get angry."

"Rong Yingran must be at least thirty, right? How old is Pei Yao?" Xu Youxi subconsciously questioned the authenticity of this matter.

"Isn't Assistant Professor Rong only 16 years old when he was in high school, but now he's only 25 when he's full of money... I understand... Assistant Professor Rong must have lied about his age!"

"?"

Young man, your reasoning ability is very strong, keep it up.

"My name is Bao Youjin."

"Are you the only son of Chief Assistant Bao Changnian?" Xu Youxi is not sensitive to the names of officials, but she has studied Bao Changnian a bit.The former chief assistant of the cabinet was surnamed Mo, who was the court backer of the wealthy merchants in the south of the Yangtze River. Later, he was forced to step down by this chief assistant Bao Changnian.

"You've heard of my father."

"I've heard it, it's famous."

The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and Rong Yingran had already entered with the book in his arms.

"I don't give lectures today, I just answer questions for everyone." Rong Yingran put the book on the table and stopped giving lectures willfully.

Who made him a Tanhualang, with real talents and real learning.

Bao Youjin was the first to raise his hand.

"you first."

"Teacher, were you really only 16 years old when you were in the middle of the year? Didn't it come out through rumors?"

Xu Youxi looked at Bao Youjin thoughtfully, and then looked at the eyes of Pei Yao who was drifting away into the distance. It turned out that he was in love with a young man, and he couldn't help standing up for his beloved girl. He couldn't help but sigh, it's so good to be young.

"Yes. Rumormongers in the world are nothing less than jealous, let's forget about it." Rong Yingran dismissed the topic lightly.

"How does sir know that the other party must be spreading rumors?"

"Then you may report the specific name of the other party. You don't even dare to have the name, but you are a villain." Rong Yingran blocked Bao Youjin's remaining words.

"..."

Alas, how could the young Bao Youjin beat the old man Rong Yingran.

Xu Youxi still had some sympathy for this young man.

"Assistant, the student has a problem. When you introduced the day before yesterday, you said that you had been the county magistrate in Tong'an County, Jingzhou for ten years. Have you ever witnessed the "Three Wonders" case of Princess Tianyou before? Those three wonders are all true. ?" He Muqing's eyes were full of excitement and curiosity.

"..."

The Lord is here, why don't you ask her!

"Rong is a mediocre person, and he has no chance to witness the magnificent scene that day. If you have the opportunity in the future, maybe you can ask His Highness in person." Rong Yingran was still talking nonsense with her eyes open.

"Okay, this is the end of the question. It seems that everyone has no doubts about Confucian classics. How about this, I will talk about some interesting lessons for you."

"In a few days it will be the Shangyuan Lantern Festival." Rong Yingran smiled, "In order to let you experience the operation mode of the common people's life, the Guozijian decided to start with the lighting of the lanterns on the eighth day of the lunar new year. In the end, everyone can make a living as a group by using the means they are good at."

"The general content is that on the eighth day of the eighth day, you need to change into the clothes prepared for you by the academy. No matter who you are, you are not allowed to reveal your identity to others, or seek help from the family power, otherwise you will be deemed a failure."

"In principle, everyone should make as much money as possible. Of course, the profits you earn, in addition to paying taxes according to the country's tax rates for different industries, you also need to deal with all emergencies that ordinary people may encounter. On the [-]th day of the first lunar month at Haishi, we will evaluate the completion of the homework by the wall of Shangjing City. The group of people who have completed the best homework will get extra points in the final assessment."

"Do you have any comments? If not, I will arrange a lottery group."

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, Dagan has not paid much attention to the two days of New Year's Eve and Spring Festival. On the contrary, the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is very popular.Especially after Emperor Chongjiu came to the throne, in order to please the Empress Xie, Emperor Chongjiu specially approved the extension of the Lantern Festival to ten days.

Before Xu Youxi had time to think about it, it was her turn to draw lots.

Xu Youxi always felt that when she stepped onto the teaching platform, Rong Yingran's smile seemed to be too confident, as if things had already been planned.

Finally grouped out.

...Xu Youxi, Pei Yao, He Muqing, and Bao Youjin formed a group of four.

This is, what kind of life and death situation.

Xu Youxi's nominal identity is his cousin, and no one would find it strange to go to Rong Yingran after class: "Master Rong arranged the groupings in advance."

"Your Highness is really smart." Rong Yingran nodded and explained, "Bao Youjin is the only son of Bao Changnian, the chief assistant of the dynasty; Pei Yao's adoptive father is Yao Dacheng, the crown prince of the dynasty, and He Muqing's father is He Jiangyi, the general guarding the border."
