The exam questions on this floor obviously failed to stop a few people, and the group quickly gathered together again and came to the stairs.

"Let's go up! The second floor is the beginning of Wangjiang Tower!" Smiling at Emperor Tianqi, Ni Yuanlu said in a deep voice.

Several people walked up slowly after being polite, and arrived at the second floor of Wanjiang Building without a few steps.As soon as they set foot on the second floor, several people noticed a big difference. The gap between here and the first floor is still very large.

Opposite the stairway is the window. At this time, all the windows are open, and the wide river is outside.Standing at the window, you can see the river flowing slowly, and you can also see the boats on the river.There are several tables in the hall, all of which are made of high-quality huanghuali wood, and the incense burner on one side is lit with high-quality sandalwood.

On both sides of the hall, there are several rooms with bamboo curtains, which are obviously private rooms. Whether it is the items placed or the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, they are all of great value.However, it is unknowingly vulgar, but it seems quiet and elegant.

There is a large table next to the window, and a bamboo curtain is hung in front of it, through which a woman can be vaguely seen inside.At this time, the woman was constantly playing the strings, and the sound of the piano lingered throughout the floor.The lingering sound is lingering, and it is obvious that the woman who plays the piano is extremely skilled.

Emperor Tianqi and the others didn't speak, and found a secluded corner to sit down, looking at the river outside and listening to the beautiful music of the piano, it was also a kind of enjoyment.Emperor Tianqi didn't understand the melody at all, and couldn't hear anything.In the previous novels, the protagonist can hear what is in the sound of the piano, and then make friends with the woman who plays the piano, and then a poignant love story begins.

But Emperor Tianqi didn't have this ability anymore, he just felt that the sound of the piano was crisp and sweet, which sounded good, as for the others, he naturally didn't hear it.Looking at Ni Yuanlu shaking his head.Emperor Tianqi could only smile wryly, but seeing Zhu Wanjun on the side, Emperor Tianqi was a little surprised.

My younger sister, Emperor Tianqi, still knew about it, and she was flying around on weekdays, but the daily management in the palace was very strict, and there was nothing wrong with it.Zhu Wanjun really learned something.Knowing how to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, as for the level of the Emperor Tianqi, I don't know!

Seeing Zhu Wanjun frowning tightly, Emperor Tianqi gently tugged at her sleeves, lowered his voice and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Glancing at Emperor Tianqi, Zhu Wanjun sighed softly, and said rather helplessly: "A bird in a cage, even if it lives in a golden cage, is just a bird in a cage. How important freedom is, this is not for ordinary people. understandable."

Seeing that Zhu Wanjun was a little depressed.Emperor Tianqi seemed to be touched by something in his heart. A 12-year-old girl stays in the palace every day. Isn't she like a canary living in a golden cage?

Although the two of them lowered their voices, Ni Yuanlu on one side still heard their conversation.Ni Yuanlu and Wen Zhenmeng all looked at Zhu Wanjun in amazement, they didn't expect that the younger brother of Emperor Tianqi would have such insight, he was very familiar with rhythm.

The sound of the piano gradually fell, and the woman who played the piano slowly stood up holding Qin, turned around and wanted to go back!

"Wait a minute, girl. I have something to say!" At this moment, a person stood up and fisted inside.The voice said politely.

When the woman heard the man's words, she was taken aback for a moment and then slowly said: "My lord, today is the first time the little girl has come out to play the piano. I don't know what the master ordered the little girl to stop?"

I saw the man clasped his fists at the woman, and said with a serious expression: "I am Wang Mingyu, how lonely and miserable the girl is when I hear the sound of the piano. I am willing to listen to the voice of the girl's heart!"

The woman's body trembled slightly, as if she was thinking, and she said softly after a long while: "The little girl comes from a slightly cold background, and she dare not make too many demands. One porridge is enough for every meal. The little girl asked the husband two questions. If the husband can answer Then, the little girl told her husband what she wanted to hear."

The two were talking, but no one was talking in the hall, and everyone was listening quietly.It is not surprising that such things happen in Wangjiang Tower, and they happen almost every day.

Wang Mingyu clasped her fists at the woman, and said with a smile: "Young lady, just talk, Xiaosheng will answer any questions!"

"Little girl dare to ask sir, do you have a good wife at home?" The woman's tone was very gentle, but what she said made everyone in the hall stunned.

Most of the people sitting in the hall are famous people. Although they didn't pass the Jinshi exam, they are all famous people.They came to Beijing this time to participate in the general examination in March next year, hoping to pass the Jinshi examination and lay the foundation for their lives.

However, there is no Juren here. The provincial examination is held every three years in August every year. Only those who have obtained the honor of Juren in the provincial examination can go to the capital to participate in the general examination.However, very few people are able to win the Juren first and then directly win the Jinshi, and most of them have to take the exam many times.

Wen Zhenmeng has taken the exam nine times. It took him 27 years to fail the exam. This year is the tenth time. One can imagine how difficult it is to be a Jinshi.

Now the chief minister of the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty, Sun Chengzong, the teacher of the Emperor Tianqi, is a figure that everyone in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty knows.When he took the Jinshi examination back then, he also exhausted his mind. Sun Chengzong was selected as a candidate at the age of 32, and he was selected as a Jinshi at the age of 42.

Because of this reality, many people married wives before they got the honor, so women would ask such a question.After passing the Jinshi examination, many people can be said to have leaped into the dragon's gate, and they became famous all over the world.Most of them will be concubines, even if they don't change, they will take a few concubines.

Many girls in Wangjiang Tower became concubines, but I don't know why this girl asked such a question?

The man looked at the woman and said with a smile: "Xiaosheng is twenty-six this year, and his family has one wife and one concubine!"

The woman smiled softly, and said in a flat tone: "The young master enjoys the blessings of everyone, and the young lady is here to congratulate the young gentleman. Although the young lady comes from a humble background, she does not want to be a concubine. The young lady wants to find a good man." A person can be poor or have no fame, but the little girl hopes that he will only marry a little girl in his life!"

The people in the hall were stunned. Such an argument could be described as outrageous, and many people curled their lips in disdain.

"I don't know the heights of heaven and earth, who do you think I am? She's really a prostitute, she speaks wild words, without a trace of womanly virtue!" The man's face flushed suddenly, as if he had been greatly insulted, he flicked his sleeves and said loudly.

All the people in the hall looked at this person, with two words written in their eyes: idiot!

Some people looked at the people around them inexplicably, what's the matter?Wang Mingyu couldn't help muttering in her heart.Is what I said wrong?Shouldn't such a woman be scolded?

But before he could react, two big men had already walked over, standing on either side of him, one on the left and one on the right, and a big man said loudly: "You are not welcome here, please leave! Don't come to Wangjiang again. Upstairs is coming!" After speaking, the two men and one man walked downstairs.

"What's going on here?" Looking at Wen Zhenmeng, Emperor Tianqi asked curiously.

"There are rules in Wangjiang Tower. You can pursue the women here, but you can't insult them with words, and you can't do anything deviant. If you don't abide by the rules of Wangjiang Tower, you will be punished!" Wen Zhenmeng lightly He smiled lightly, and said in a playful tone, it seems that the one just now was also a stunned young man!

Emperor Tianqi nodded, this place is very humane!It seems that the people who run this place are really interesting!

"Girl, please stay!" Just as the woman was about to go back, a voice sounded again, but it was beside Emperor Tianqi.

Seeing Ni Yuanlu standing up, Emperor Tianqi suddenly laughed, it seems that this person is really interesting!

"Girl, Xiaosheng Ni Yuanlu is 23 years old and hasn't married yet!" Ni Yuanlu said in a deep voice as she clasped her fist at the woman.

The woman's body trembled slightly, she turned her head in disbelief, looked at Ni Yuanlu who was wearing common clothes, and said in a trembling voice, "What did you say, sir?"

"Xiaosheng hasn't married a wife yet. If the girl is willing, Xiaosheng wants to marry a girl, and he is willing to marry only one wife in his life!" Ni Yuanlu's voice was not loud, but the words were so loud that everyone in the hall was stunned.

Emperor Tianqi was also stunned, who said that ancient people didn't fall in love?This is too tough, the two have already talked about marriage before they meet.

"Since the husband said so, the little girl is willing to tell the sound of her heart to the husband!" The girl was also very neat and tidy. It seemed that with such a promise from Ni Yuanlu, this life was enough!

"Young and romantic, brother Ni's actions should be a role model for us! Wen admires, admires!" Wen Zhenmeng was the first to recover, looking at Ni Yuanlu with a big smile, clapping his hands and laughing!

Emperor Tianqi also stood up, and said loudly: "Brother Ni, I admire you very much. There are very few people who are so affectionate and righteous. Talk more about infatuated women and heartless people. It seems that there will be no such thing today. , this good story of Brother Nee must spread soon!"

"A good story? Not necessarily! Don't forget that this is not a backcountry, this is Wangjiang Tower. It is not an easy task to take people away here. I am afraid that you can do it with the few money you earn from writing. No!" A few people came up from the stairs, the leader said while shaking the folding fan in his hand lightly while laughing.

Everyone's eyes fell on this person, obviously they didn't know how such a person would come out at this time.

"Ni Yuanlu, think about it. Daming has laws! Officials are not allowed to marry prostitutes. For such a thing that insults the dignity of officials, they will be dismissed and returned home. They will never be used. You read sage books, but Think about it!" The man looked at Ni Yuanlu with a sneer, and said playfully with a look of gloating. (To be continued..)
