The Biography of Concubine Xi of Yongzheng

Chapter 604
"Huang Ama, Erniang is not in Jingren Palace, so let me recite it to Huang Ama!" Xiaoxiao kowtowed as soon as she saw Yinzhen, anxious to recite the Three Character Classic.

Her confinement has long since ended, but she hasn't been able to memorize the Three Character Classic, so the punishment for memorizing it will be postponed until she can memorize the entire Three Character Classic.

But Yinzhen and Yanhua agreed to make things difficult for her. Every time she managed to memorize the Three Character Classic verbatim, they would randomly pick a few sentences and ask her to recite the previous sentence or the next sentence!That is quite, very difficult!In the one hundred times she copied the Three Character Classic, if there was a typo, that time would not be counted!It tortured her to death!

Yanhua followed Yinzhen and walked out slowly. After seeing her with a smile, she muttered to herself: "It turns out that Er Niang came here to make out with Huang Ama. No wonder I didn't see Er Niang when I went to Jingren Palace." Woolen cloth."

Yanhua was startled, and looked at Yinzhen dumbfounded. Seeing that his face was normal, with a faint smile on his mouth, she could only sigh secretly: This smile, speaking like this, is really a bit out of character, it really should be It's better to recite more poems and songs, otherwise, if you marry Zhang Ruoai in the future, won't there be problems between them?Don't be like Hui'er and Sebuteng!
"At the beginning of human beings, human nature is inherently good. Similar in nature, but distant in habits. If you don't teach, your nature will change...Beware of it, you should work hard!" Xiaoxiao recited very quickly, and some parts of her recited could not be heard clearly in the middle. what is it.

Seeing her occasionally looking down, Yanhua felt strange, so she looked at her hand specially.Only then did I realize that every time I smiled and lowered my eyes, my palms stretched slightly.Yanhua immediately understood what was going on, glanced at Yinzhen, and motioned him to look at Xiaoxiao's hand.

After Yinzhen just sat down, he absently picked out a booklet and read it, and only listened to the content with a smile after reading it.After receiving Yanhua's reminder, he looked at Xiaoxiao's hand, because he was facing her, so Yinzhen didn't see what was written in her hand, so he coughed: "Come here, I'll report One sentence, you write the next sentence, if it is correct, it is passed."

When Xiaoxiao cheerfully walked over to pick up the paper and pen, Yinzhen hurriedly looked at the palm of her hand with narrow eyes.Hmph, there are really small characters written in it, so small, it's hard for her.Xiaoxiao has never cheated before, so Yinzhen didn't expect to be on guard against her, but this time she actually learned to cheat!

"What is this? Huh? Who taught you?" Yinzhen tapped her palm with a pen, and she hurriedly hid behind her.

"Huang Ama got it wrong, it's... it was Erchen who accidentally got his hands dirty when he was playing just now... yes, he got his hands dirty." She stammered and lied, her eyes flickered, and she didn't even dare to look at her. Yinzhen or Yanhua.

"It's a coincidence that it's so dirty, it's literally dirty." Yan Hua pursed her lips and laughed, and couldn't help but joke.

This method was taught by Hongzhou Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao felt very good, so he wrote the four sentences that he always recited wrong on his palm, and he didn't know how they saw it.Hey, what two old foxes.

"Let's stop here for today. When you can recite it fluently without getting your hands dirty, you can count it as a pass." Yinzhen waved his hand, and he didn't plan to test her again, so he made a decision on the spot.

Xiaoxiao immediately pursed her mouth, only swallowing bitter water.

Yan Hua smiled, and said: "Your Majesty, how about this? There is always a collection of poems in the Emperor's study, pick one for Xiao Xiao to take back to read, when you can recite all thirty poems, this punishment will be fine." It's over."

She felt that memorizing all the three-character scriptures was of no use to Xiaoxiao, at most she could utter a few sentences, but memorizing poems was still useful. Zhang Ruoai was a scholar, so it was also true that Xiaoxiao could recite a few poems when she got along with him in the future. excellent.

Yinzhen nodded, thinking it was good, it would be beneficial and harmless to be able to memorize more things with a smile.

Xiaoxiao shook her head resolutely. It took her a month to memorize the three-character scriptures. No matter how hard she worked, she could recite them by heart. How could she suddenly be asked to memorize those unfamiliar poems now?Didn't he make fun of her!She disagrees, firmly disagrees!

"That's the deal. I asked you to memorize these three-character scriptures within a month. If you can't do it, you have disobeyed the order. If I don't punish you for anything else, it is already kind. You don't want to bargain with me anymore! And The Chinese New Year will be one and a half months away. I will test your thirty poems on New Year’s Eve. If you still can’t memorize them by then, you can go directly to the Shang’s study room to study at the beginning of next year. .”

When Xiaoxiao heard this, he immediately froze like five thunders, and immediately stopped on the spot. The writing brush in his hand accidentally slipped to the ground, making a muffled sound.Her heart was as cold as the snow outside.

No matter how you look at it, it's still more cost-effective to be thirty poems, so she should just memorize poems honestly.

"My son knows, my son must have memorized those thirty poems firmly." She pursed her mouth in tears, feeling that her life was really miserable...

Yanhua sent two old nuns to Chuxiu Palace to serve Liu Guiren, and even asked Shaoyao to visit her every now and then, which was more caring than she was about giving birth by herself.Guo Guiren, who lives with Chuxiu Palace, is also unwilling to be an enemy, and he gets along well with Liu Guiren, so he also takes care of Liu Guiren.

On New Year's Eve, Yinzhen didn't let Yanhua waste because he was still in the mourning period for the filial queen.The concubines are all setting up the New Year in their small courtyard, but no one dares to make it too festive, and even the red lanterns are rarely hung up.

Yinzhen passed on Xiaoxiao to go to Jingren Palace to celebrate the New Year. At first he didn't remember the test of her poetry and prose, but when he joked that he had a stomachache and refused to go to Jingren Palace, Su Peisheng reminded him that he Only then did I know that Xiaoxiao was pretending to be sick.

In the end, he naturally didn't let her little scheme succeed, and called her to Jingren Palace to recite poems.

Xiaoxiao is not stupid, but she only remembers to recite poems every day when the dusk is getting darker, and then hides by the stove while eating snacks while reading the collection of poems. As a result, she faints before reciting a poem drowsy.So, she told herself that she must get up early in the morning to recite the book, but the next morning she went to the third school to play with Mrs. Wuzaku.This went on and on until two days before the New Year's Eve, when she was nervous and had a good time reciting it for two days.

So when it came to the day of the exam, she didn't have any confidence at all.

But Japan is a day of celebration, so Yinzhen only took two of her poems for the exam, but she didn't know these two capitals by heart.After stumbled and recited it once, and made two mistakes, although Yin Zhen was dissatisfied, he did not appear unhappy.

"Xiaoxiao has grown up, and she will get married in a few years. Hey, I really can't bear it." Yinzhen accompanied the mother and daughter to watch the night. Seeing that Xiaoxiao had grown taller, Yanhua touched her His little face sighed.

"The child is still young, I have to spend a few more years with my mother before remarrying." Xiaoxiao didn't want to marry far away, so she would rather stay in the palace for a few more years.

Yanhua has not told Xiaoxiao what Yinzhen promised her. She was worried that Yinzhen would go back on his word, but it would be bad to say it too early. After so long, she felt that Yinzhen was really unwilling to marry Xiaoxiao far away, so Then she patted Xiaoxiao's hand: "Your Empress Ama said that you are not allowed to marry far away. Tell Erniang, do you like Zhang Ruoai, the second son of Master Zhang's family?"

Xiaoxiao hadn't talked about Zhang Ruoai for a long time. After hearing these three words, she blinked her eyes twice before she suddenly realized: "What nonsense are you talking about! My boy... how can my boy like that apprentice!"

Yinzhen frowned, and looked at her suspiciously: "If I remember correctly, you changed him into a thief at first, how can you turn him into a disciple now? Did you see him molesting women? What if In this way, I really lost my sight."

"It's not about molesting women, it's just...he's shameless! There's a purple-clothed monster chasing him all day long, and helping him bully children. He...is a disciple!" It was impossible for her to tell Huang Ama , that Zhang Ruoai once peeked at her "xiaolongbao"!What is not a disciple?Hmph, he doesn't look like a scholar!

Yanhua smiled lightly, and raised her hand to pinch Xiaoxiao's cheek: "So it's delicious, tell Erniang, do you always miss Zhang Ruoai?"

Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes helplessly, and muttered: "Emiang, my son knows what you want to ask. My son really missed that Deng Tuzi, it was because he stole my money back then, so I missed him I don't like him. What's so good about him? Isn't he just a weak scholar who has no power to restrain a chicken? If I want to marry, I will marry a majestic general, so that no one will dare to bully me. "

"General?" Yinzhen glanced at her with a half-smile, "Would you like to marry the general and live in such a deserted place? There is no market, even lack of water, and you are disgraced every day... You are angry, He won't coax you like a servant in the palace, maybe he will quarrel with you... well, maybe he will be more than 20 years older than you, so, would you like it?"

Xiaoxiao swallowed her saliva dryly, the general she imagined was dressed in armor, holding a spear, majestic, heroic, and wherever she looked, there was a chilling aura, so easy to scare to death with a drink A great hero of the enemy army.As for the prototype of this great hero, she doesn't know, maybe she read it from a book, and she thinks the general named Yue Fei is very good.

But, is it true that their great generals in the Qing Dynasty are all slovenly like what Huang Ama said?

If the great general that her Huang Ama talked about was put together with Zhang Ruoai, and she was asked to choose one of the two, she felt that she would still choose Zhang Ruoai reluctantly, at least Zhang Ruoai had good features, and if he dared to bully her, she would let others They tied him up and beat him severely.

"Well, if you are really willing to marry a great general, you will have to think about it in the next year and choose a decent one for you to be your son-in-law. As for that Zhang Ruoai, since he is a disciple, he is naturally not good enough for me. Royal princess, I will let Zhang Tingyu discipline him well."

She glanced at Yanhua with a smile, saw that she was nodding slightly, and tugged at Yanhua's hand nervously: "Er Niang...Actually, my child thinks that apprentice can still make do with it..."
