I, who disguised myself as a woman, turned out to be a queen! ?

Chapter 897 Empress: Are you writing to complain to my mother?
This man was tall, and although he was dressed like a scholar, his figure was quite different from the scholars that everyone knew. Especially that certain aura, one could tell at a glance that this man had walked down from the battlefield.

At this moment, the man was holding a silver ingot in his calloused hand in front of the scholar who had just scolded him. Seeing that the young scholar did not speak, the man asked again: "This silver is given to you for free. Are you tempted? Scholars should not speak nonsense."

The young student couldn't help but frown when he looked at the silver.

The man smiled and said, "You are moved, right? Come, I'll give it to you."

After that, he turned to look at the shop owner: "Boss, this is the answer to my first question. Let me see what the second question is?"

As soon as these words came out, people around frowned.

Some even shouted: "Ridiculous! How can this be an answer? Even a primary school student wouldn't give such an answer."

The shop owner saw more and more people gathering around him, and smiled as he picked up the second piece of paper with the question written on it.

However, the man did not immediately pick up the paper. Instead, he turned around and looked at the person who spoke: "It's not okay for a child to study in elementary school, but I'm not a child to study in elementary school."

Hearing this, everyone wanted to refute, but they couldn't think of how to refute.

However, those people in the martial arts world did not understand literature, so when they heard what this man said, they all burst into laughter.

However, the scholars looked at this man with red faces and anger.

Xia Fengxiang looked at this person and sneered: "So it's him."

Su Changan looked at Xia Fengxiang: "Know him?"

Xia Fengxiang didn't say anything, but pulled Su Changan towards the crowd.

At this time, the man picked up another piece of paper, which was the second question.

This is a small study. After Su Changan protected Xia Fengxiang and squeezed into the crowd, he saw that this study should be planning to organize activities like those places in Jizhou City in the capital.

There is a notice at the door saying 'Anyone who answers three questions will receive ten taels of silver' followed by some welfare activities for purchasing things in the store.

The former attracts people, while the latter tempts people to buy things.

It was a copycat activity, but it was sufficient. After all, there were indeed a lot of people gathered at the door, and there were many books placed at the door, and some people bought them.

"Isn't this Ruo Cairuo a charlatan? How did he come to Wuping? Did he come with the army?"

At this time, more and more people gathered around, and someone in the crowd recognized the man who was holding the second test question in his hand.

The man turned around, squinted his eyes at the short man who was speaking, smiled and bowed: "I prefer to be called Master Le'an instead of a charlatan, or you can call me by my name Ruocai."

The man answered honestly, then turned back to look at the questions.

However, several locals from Jizhou in the crowd were suddenly startled: "Master Le'an? Is it the Master Le'an who helped Mr. Hou's daughter to return to life?"

"What kind of wizard is this? He's just a liar. He relied on his literary talent and imitated the literary style of the daughter of that great philanthropist to write poems. It's because the great philanthropist and his wife are kind-hearted. They know they've been cheated, but they're still grateful to him. And it's not just the great philanthropist Hou. The people in Luoluo Village are the same. They pretend to be gods and ghosts, imitating the literary style of those dead people and writing things, saying that they can talk to the dead in the underworld, and cheating the families of the deceased out of their food money. They have no conscience! It's because those people are good people and they even give him food and so on."

"I heard about it, too. He was a soldier. Someone couldn't stand it and reported it to the authorities. Lord Du came at that time, but for some reason Lord Du didn't say anything."

"Just now I was wondering why he was holding a chicken and paper money in his hands. I wonder if he was trying to scam people out of money."

……

Everyone around was talking to each other.

Those who didn't know just listened to what was said around them and then looked at that person with some disgust in their eyes.

The Yan area was hit by a disaster, and countless families were displaced and separated from each other. The greatest event in the world is that the Yin and Yang cannot meet, and this man actually made such a fortune at this time!
But there were also people who looked at the middle-aged man named Ruocai thoughtfully.

Among them, Su Changan looked at Ruocai with some surprise.

And at this time.
Ruo Cai looked at the paper in her hand and turned to look at the shop owner: "Shopkeeper, this question is from the imperial examination in the past."

The shop owner heard this and saw that the man in front of him was a connoisseur, so he immediately said, "Sir, do you know? Then do you have the answer?"

In fact, the shop owner didn’t care what the answer to the first question was. He was even a little excited. The reason was simple: there were quite a few people gathering around him!
Whether the answer is important or not, as a businessman he doesn’t need to care about it. For him, having more people is the real truth.

Ruo Cai thought for a while, then picked up the pen on the table and wrote four words: "Xu".

Although everyone had some criticisms about Ruo Cai, they also wanted to see what he wrote, so they stretched their necks to see, and saw that he had written "This is a sigh."

The scholar who had blushed at what Ruo Cai said earlier immediately said, "Ridiculous!"

After that, he looked at the shop owner and said, "Are you satisfied with this answer? You let such a ridiculous person answer these questions. It's really embarrassing for scholars like me! You shouldn't do business like this!"

The shop owner was originally glad that so many people came, but he suddenly heard himself being scolded, and saw that some other students also looked angry, so he pursed his lips and said, "Um, everyone..."

The shop owner then spoke.

Ruo Cai smiled and shook her head: "You don't understand me."

Having said that, he picked up the paper with the third question.

Everyone frowned when they heard this, and one of them said, "Mencius is about to go to the king, and you wrote four "huhs". Do you understand me?"

As he spoke, the man stepped forward and looked at the shop owner: "Boss, can you give me a pen and paper so I can answer the questions. Although I am not well-educated, my answers are better than those of this arrogant scholar!"

The shop owner immediately turned around and looked at the clerk.

Naturally, the others started to make a noise.

Su Changan looked at the title and then at the four "sighs" written by Ruocai, and he smiled suddenly.

But when he looked down, he saw Xia Fengxiang looking at him, as if asking if he had seen through it.
Su Changan nodded.

But at this time, Ruocai had already picked up the pen and started writing the answer to the third question.

Although everyone despised him, after they saw him finish writing, they still wanted to see what ridiculous answer he would give this time.

But the shopkeeper was quick to take the paper away.

The excited look of the crowd just now really scared the shop owner. It was really a small business, and he had thought that he could rely on this person to attract so many people, but he didn't expect to arouse public anger.

I was afraid that this person would write something else, so I snatched it away to read it first.

But when he looked down, the shop owner was stunned. The shop owner was also a scholar, but after doing business for a long time, he was no longer an scholar, but he could naturally understand some things.

After reading the contents on the paper, the shop owner looked at Ruocai in surprise.

Ruo Cai looked at the shop owner and said with a smile: "I came out to do some shopping today. I happened to pass by and was interested. Boss, don't worry about it. I don't want this reward."

After hearing this, the student who was about to write the answer to the first question next to Ruocai took the paper from the boss, and when he lowered his head to look at it, his expression changed.

Seeing this, the others also leaned over to take a look.

When the people in the underworld saw this, they wondered what was going on.

But when they saw the answer to the third question, all the scholars' expressions changed and they all looked at Ruocai in astonishment.

The shopkeeper looked at Ruo Cai and said, "Since you have such a good literary talent, why did you answer the first two questions?"

When Ruo Cai heard this, he immediately said, "I won't say anything more. I'm just interested in this. As for whether this answer is correct, that's up to me. And it doesn't matter if you don't understand this answer. Anyway, you just need to understand the answer to the third question."

The wild words remained, and his speech was gentle and elegant, but he was also very aloof.

Everyone frowned again when they heard this.

But if you look at the eyes of the people around you, it seems like you are enjoying it and are about to leave with a smile.

However, Xia Fengxiang glanced at Su Changan with a look that said, "Go out and talk about it."

Su Changan looked at Xia Fengxiang helplessly, feeling that it was inappropriate.

Xia Fengxiang rolled his eyes at Su Changan and then pushed him.

Su Changan was helpless again, then looked at Ruo Cai and said: "In the empty mountains and valleys, there are ten thousand taels of gold. Outside the white dew and green reeds, there is a beauty. Master, are you attracted to her? He said: "Yes, yes ...

Su Changan said thirty-nine times in one breath without even taking a breath, and then said: "The saint said that one should not be tempted at forty, which means that one should be tempted before forty. On the contrary, saints have to wait until they are forty to cultivate the body of a gentleman, so why should we pretend? We should be tempted when we should be tempted, and this is the way to become a gentleman. When the tempting heart is done and it is boring, then naturally the mind will be free from distractions, and it will be as clear as a mirror and still water."

Hearing this, the people around looked at the female hero wearing a veil, and Ruo Cai also looked at Su Changan.

But when she saw Xia Fengxiang behind Su Changan, Ruo Cai was stunned for a moment. Her expression changed slightly, and Xia Fengxiang happened to see it.

Su Changan continued, "As for the four 'whoops', I can only say that the master is unique. He doesn't care about other things, he just wants to be interesting, so he doesn't write about Mencius, doesn't write about the king, but only writes about the general. If there is an emperor in the theater, when the general appears, the actors around him shout 'whoops', which is exactly four people."

Ruocai showed joy on her face.

As for the other people around, they looked at each other, then at Ruocai, and didn't quite answer. It was just as this girl said, unique and just wanting to be interesting.

just
Everyone looked at the female warrior with a veil on her head, and they were all curious about who she was and how she could see all these things.

That look was also one of surprise and astonishment.

This scholar in the army is already weird, how can anyone understand such weird behavior? You can see what is written in the article.

The student looked at Su Changan, then at Ruocai, and immediately spoke: "But the third question was answered extremely well, showing your literary talent. The first two were so bad, you are still unworthy of being a scholar! Moreover, this is an activity where merchants set questions for scholars, but you are so joking. Are you relying on your status as a soldier and think you can insult us to read more texts?"

Ruo Cai heard it, thought for a moment, and bowed to the man, shaking the paper money and chicken in his hand, and said: "Jun Ruo Qi"

As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to a place not far away: "The government office is over there, I am here."

The meaning is simple. If you are too angry, just go and report to the police. I will be here and will not run away.

The student's face turned blue and purple. He never expected that this person would speak like this. He looked at Ruo Cai and said, "How disrespectful!"

After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and turned away.

Ruo Cai, on the other hand, turned and looked at Su Changan with a smile: "Madam understands me."

When they heard the word "Madam", everyone was surprised. Why should they call this girl "Madam"?

Su Changan was stunned.

Instead, Xia Fengxiang said, "Let's go over there and talk for a few words?"

Ruo Cai nodded immediately.

Ignoring the people around them, Su Changan and Xia Fengxiang turned around and left, and Ruo Cai followed behind them.

The shop owner wanted to say something, but gave up when he saw Ruocai's back. However, he still had to do business, so he immediately looked at the people around him and started shouting.

Su Changan and his companions walked to a place with fewer people.

Xia Fengxiang looked at Ruocai: "Do you know who I am?"

Ruo Cai bowed again: "My biological mother passed away early. I did some crazy things in the past. It was thanks to the late queen that she saved my life. The late queen regarded me as her living mother and savior. How could I not recognize the daughter of my savior?"

Su Changan was stunned for a moment when he looked at Ruocai.

Xia Fengxiang smiled and said, "When you said 'crazy' just now, do you mean you know that you did something wrong back then?"

Ruo Cai looked ashamed: "I knew it before I did it."

Xia Fengxiang asked: "You still do it even though you know it?"

Ruo Cai answered respectfully: "Knowing and doing are two different things."

Xia Fengxiang smiled and continued to ask: "What if I asked you to return to the capital to prepare for the next imperial examination?"

Ruo Cai looked worried: "Based on my temper, I might irritate Your Majesty."

Xia Fengxiang looked at Ruocai and said, "No wonder you managed to make Father angry."

Su Changan was ashamed as he looked at this gentleman with a strong personality.

This conversation just now was translated as:
I know what I'm doing is wrong, but I'm going to do it.

I know I'm wrong, but I won't change.

Ruo Cai looked at Xia Fengxiang: "Besides, Your Majesty, I'm used to being here and can't leave."

Xia Fengxiang smiled and said, "It's up to you. It's a pity that there are not enough scholars like you in the world, so don't die."

Ruo Cai bowed: "The golden dragon speaks the truth, it is difficult to die."

Xia Fengxiang ignored Ruo Cai's flattery and looked at the paper money and chicken in his hand: "Is it what I was thinking about?"

Ruo Cai nodded: "I will never forget this in my life."

Xia Fengxiang smiled and said, "Let's go and do your thing. I just happened to meet you, and you don't look like you want to stay with us."

Ruo Cai pursed her lips, smiled, and looked at Su Changan, but hesitated before looking at Xia Fengxiang: "Can I have a word with the queen?"

Xia Fengxiang nodded.

Su Changan looked at Ruo Cai: "Sir, just speak frankly."

Ruo Cai bowed to Su Changan and said, "People have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions, the moon waxes and wanes, and it is difficult to have everything in life. Your Majesty wrote this very well."

After saying that, he bowed again.

Then turned and left.

I thought he was going to say something, but it turned out to be just this sentence, which made Su Changan laugh and cry.

Xia Fengxiang said, "There are two scholars in the world who can make my father angry. One is Mu Xu, and the other is Ruo Cai. He is very talented and even passed the palace examination. That year, my father made the palace examination topic "Xizi is coming", but this person wrote a doggerel poem, which was very ridiculous. Although my father was angry, he didn't say anything, and he didn't care about him after he failed the exam."

"As a result, this person changed his name and took the imperial examination for the second time. He passed the palace examination again, but this time he didn't come to take the exam. After checking, it was found that it was Ruocai. My father remembered this person, so he had him arrested to ask why he didn't take the palace examination. But this person was drunk and fell asleep in the palace. I thought of waking him up, but my mother said to wait until he woke up. Many people were angry at the time and suggested to kill him, but my mother said that no one would kill people for no reason. Then everyone kept silent."

"When he woke up, my father asked him questions. He replied that he didn't like being an official because he had no freedom. When asked why he took the imperial examination, he said that he failed the last imperial examination and was ridiculed. He was so angry that he changed his name to prove that he had the ability to pass."

While Su Changan was looking at Xia Fengxiang, he turned his head to look at Ruocai's back and couldn't help but smile. Thinking about the style of this person just now, it was quite consistent.

Even Lian Wei who was standing by looked at Ruocai in surprise. Is there such a scholar who is willing to risk his life?

But think about it, it’s more weird than risking your life!
Acharya seemed to be thinking about something, and then suddenly remembered something: "I remember. Many people said that this man was looking for death. It turns out that he is still alive, and..."

At this point, Acharya did not say anything. He just remained silent for a while and looked at the paper money and the chicken.

I also thought of that sentence: How could I not recognize the daughter of my benefactor?

Xia Fengxiang smiled and nodded, then looked at Su Changan and continued, "Father is naturally angry, and other ministers know about this matter. They think that this is a disrespect for the court, and they all advise that he should be killed to serve as a warning to others, so that there will be no more rebellious people like him in the future."

"But the emperor knew that although this person was absurd, he was talented, so he was reluctant to kill him. However, the officials in the court were angry with him, and the queen mother saw what the emperor was thinking, so she asked Ruo Cai, 'Did you ever think that you would be killed for doing this?' As a result, this person looked at the queen mother and said, 'Your Majesty, can you not kill me? You can even send me to serve in the army. This world is interesting, and I haven't had enough fun yet. I don't want to die."

At this point, Xia Fengxiang smiled, and then continued, "So, he was exiled to the border by my mother. My mother gave the order, and the officials in the court naturally couldn't say anything. Moreover, this man was indeed full of talent, and many people knew it would be a pity to kill him. Later, in the Battle of Xia Desert, he survived. Later, when my mother passed away, the news of him wearing mourning for her reached my father's ears. My father then remembered him and wanted to bring him back to the capital, but he replied, 'I am not fit to be an official during the mourning period, so I'd better be a small soldier on the border.' My father laughed in anger and let him be a small soldier. But in fact, if he is willing, he can at least be a minister."

Xia Fengxiang looked at Su Changan: "When my father told me, he said that this person is a genius, but he is not serious. If I meet him in the future, I will use him if I can use him. If I can't use him, don't force me."

Su Changan said, "My father-in-law thinks that there should be such a person among the scholars in the world."

Mu Xu, Xun Kuang and others seem to be unrestrained and not bound by red tape, but in the final analysis they still have secular ideas and the thoughts of literati who follow the rules.

But Su Changan thought Rucai's behavior was eccentric and unorthodox, but he thought about what people had just said about him pretending that he could communicate with the dead in the underworld and learning the humanities of the deceased to communicate with their families in the world.

But Xia Fengxiang suddenly said: "Su Changan, do you know why I came out today?"

Su Changan looked at Xia Fengxiang: "Buy paper money?"

Xia Fengxiang looked at Su Changan, and was not surprised that Su Changan had guessed it.

Su Changan continued, "We're not in Beijing, so we do it the way ordinary people do it here, so I had people prepare it earlier. My mother-in-law doesn't care about those ceremonies anyway, so we can just do it normally. As for the boiled chicken, you cook it and I'll help you."

Xia Fengxiang looked at Su Changan: "Did Xia Zhici tell you?"

Su Changan frowned and pointed at himself: "Is it not normal for me, the son-in-law, to know about my mother-in-law's memorial day?"

Xia Fengxiang rolled his eyes at Su Changan, but suddenly thought of something, so he asked, "The night before yesterday, you were secretly writing something and didn't let me see it. Were you writing to complain to my mother?!"

Su Changan pulled the veil and smiled: "I am that kind of person!? You don't know me."

Then he turned around and walked away quickly, feeling very guilty.
