The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Sheng Yuan had a very fulfilling few days on the river.

Although she has neither fished, nor wielded a knife, nor played games.

Well, the industrious Shilang Sheng wrote sixteen articles while immersed in pen and paper while boating on the river, each of which was aimed at the ribs of some great scholars.

Because of her good writing skills, her dozens of articles were all full of gorgeous words, quotations from classics, and frequent good sentences. By the end of the writing, Sheng Yuan couldn't help but compile them into a volume and planned to send them to her own bookstore for publication.

To this end, she even wrote a preface to her poem: "[Owls are circling on the river, and I talk to the great scholar; I write several articles a day, going back and forth between the boat and the shore.]"

She was quite satisfied with the slightly sarcastic preface, but she helped organize the article. She felt that this little poem, which was not outstanding among limericks, was really holding back these fine articles.

However, Sheng Yuan had no intention of modifying it. She just wanted to secretly show off: she was no more than a layman in scolding the great scholars in a polite way; she was even more professional in sketching articles with the great scholars!

Xiaoyao couldn't persuade her, she sighed repeatedly at first, and then suddenly wondered: Could it be that her young lady used this poem as a bait to attract criticism from those old scholars who made her faint with scolding, so that they could give them another beating? !

Thinking of his lady's actual actions these days, Xiaoyao has more and more reasons to believe that his guess is true!

Well!

Her lady is so cunning!

……

Sheng Yuan happily looked at the stitched collection of essays and sighed with satisfaction: This is not her aggressive nature!

Who made those officials and scholars so full that they had nothing to do but scold her in the official newspaper?

It’s still like a group!

She is always talkative. When people criticize her by name, she naturally wants to fight back... Oh, no, she wants to reason with them!

Sure enough, quarreling with others is fun, no, it makes the boring boating life colorful.

……

"Zitong, are Sister Yuan still quarreling with those idiots?" After returning to Qingyuan Palace from Lanzheng Palace, the relaxed Emperor Yanping suddenly remembered the excitement these days and looked at Sheng Ran curiously.

Sheng Ran nodded, her face a bit speechless: "The official newspaper has been adding more issues these days. The original three or five newspapers have been multiplied three to five times in these days. The extra articles are all articles about her and those people."

She knew that her little sister was full of energy, but she really didn't expect that this guy was so energetic!

Those hearty articles looked like they were written in one go. Just looking at the words that were so sweet to read, she could imagine how excited the little girl was who was writing so hard at that time.

"There is no harm without comparison!" Emperor Yanping compared the articles written by Sheng Yuan and a well-known Confucian scholar and couldn't help shaking his head.

Sheng Ran was quite proud of her younger sister's literary talent: "It might help some people know that there is no false scholar under the great reputation. The style of our sixth-level female champion, the number one scholar, is beyond the reach of others."

Just after she praised her for a few words, she saw the child Zhuangwa sneaking out again. She immediately darkened her face and asked someone to call her in.

"Here, take it! It's better to just learn from your aunt's articles when you have nothing to do, than to skip class and play around!"

The child, who was less than six years old, drooped her head and hummed: "Whose kid does his homework so early!"

"What are you mumbling about?" Sheng Ran asked, suppressing a smile when she saw that the girl's braids were growing wilted.

"I wonder when my aunt will come back!" Zhiwa changed her mind decisively.

Sure enough, when she said this, her mother stopped staring at her and turned to her father to plan her aunt's itinerary. Seeing their daughter quietly leaving on tiptoe with a stack of official newspapers in her arms, Sheng Ran and Emperor Yanping looked at each other, both of them dumbfounded.

……

Although Zhiwa is young, she still knows many words, so it is not a problem to read the entire official newspaper.

However, being able to read means being able to read, but understanding is at another level.

Well, such a height is currently beyond her reach.

But it doesn’t matter if she doesn’t understand, she can ask!

She had chosen all the candidates she asked: Well, it was her grandfather, Yongxing Hou Sheng Xiangxun!

……

It's a coincidence that when the baby was found, Sheng Xiangxun also spoke loudly about the articles in the official newspaper that criticized his daughter.

"This group of people who don't do anything serious, endure hardships and sit back, point at others, no wonder they can't pass the exam! It's a blessing for the court that they don't exist in the officialdom!"

"Shilang Yang was killed when he was relieving food. He was loyal to the country. They didn't want to avenge him. Instead, they speculated that he was colluding with the robbers and escaping. If they can, they can do it themselves!

snort! Yang Shilang's wife, children, relatives and clan members are all in Kyoto. How can he put aside the achievements he has already made and put his entire clan in custody? ! "

"They didn't care about scolding Minister Yang, but they actually brought Sister Yuan along with them! They said in and out that Sister Yuan shouldn't be allowed to patrol the Southland! Why, instead of my Sister Yuan, they use their group of idiots No?

The job of relieving people sounds nice, but whoever does it knows how tiring, difficult and troublesome it is!

What a comfortable job this is!

Besides, how come our sister Yuan is in the same group with Minister Yang? Is it because they both work in the Ministry of Revenue? The cabinet elders are still working in the Classics Office all day, why don’t they seem to be united? "

"How can it be that Sister Yuan has helped Yang Shilang? Yang Shilang has also helped our Sister Yuan! Our Sister Yuan is called Zhientu repayment! Who is like them, a wolf with white eyes becomes a spirit!"

The angry Sheng Xiangxun denounced passionately at a pile of collected official reports. At this moment, Zhuang Wa came in.

……

When Zhuang Wa returned to the palace, the little guy did not go to rest immediately. Instead, he picked up a pen and ink and wrote vigorously:

"What I have learned now is: 1. When people scold me, I will always scold them; 2. Those who do not suffer jealousy are mediocre, but those who attack jealousy are good talents; 3. As long as the talent is quick enough, one enemy can always be victorious; 4. . When fighting with others, regardless of articles or words, only be quick and unbreakable; 5. Let others speak, let others speak, let him speak as many people as he wants, and do not give up the initiative; 6. If you are thick-skinned enough, the enemy will feel uncomfortable; have a strong enough mentality , the enemy is desolate.”

The little guy finished writing six items and wanted to write more. Unfortunately, his memory is limited, and he couldn't remember much in his little head, so he could only sigh and stop writing.

However, even though there are only six of them, Zhuang Wa feels that they are very useful.

……

When Zhiwa arrived at the Yongxing Marquis Mansion, Mrs. Zheng happened to be invited to his house as a guest. After she came back, she found out what Sheng Xiangxun had said to the child, and she was so angry that she grabbed his ears and wouldn't let go:

"You old fool, what are you talking nonsense to your child! You are a princess! What did you teach the future crown prince like!"

"Madam! Madam! Please show mercy!" Sheng Xiangxun grinned and begged for mercy again and again.

Fortunately, after meeting Zhuang Wa, Sheng Ran guessed how her father might be treated, and sent her nanny to intercede with her, thus sparing her father from punishment. (End of chapter)
