Chapter 119

"It's just now that the academician and several doctors have discussed it. According to their performances in the colleges on weekdays, it has been decided that Ms. Shen will take part in the riding and archery competition, Ms. Nie will take part in the piano art, Mr. Bai will take part in the chess game, and Mr. Wen will take part in the painting art. Miss Cheng is participating in the calligraphy competition. Do you five students have different opinions?"

When Hui'an heard that he was indeed allowed to participate in the riding and archery competition, he couldn't help but shook his head with a sigh of relief and a smile.Seeing that there were no objections from several people, Academician Liu nodded in satisfaction, and instructed again.

"Tomorrow is a public holiday. When you go back, don't be greedy for fun. Make more preparations and go."

The five of Hui'an saluted together, and then they walked out slowly. As soon as they left the Yilun hall, Nie Shuangshuang frowned and said, "I thought I would be allowed to participate in calligraphy, but my piano skills are really bad. By the way, What kind of fonts is Miss Cheng good at? I still have two Liao Jia's official script copybooks, I don't know if they are useful to you? If they are useful, I will ask the girl to send them to you when I return home."

Nie Shuangshuang wrote well, but she was assigned to participate in the piano art competition. Academician Liu and the doctors made this decision considering that Cheng Minyu was only good at calligraphy.

Originally, Nie Shuangshuang was sure to win if there were no accidents in the calligraphy competition, but now she has to participate in the piano competition. Although her piano skills are not bad, she can't be as sure as calligraphy.

Because most of the Tai students are young ladies from official families with low backgrounds, when it comes to the five arts, they are really not as good as Guozisheng from noble families.Both Taixue and Guozijian are well aware of this, so when comparing the five arts, Taixue must seek safety, and win one is one.

In fact, if Guozijian adopts a conservative plan, Bai Yulin should participate in the riding and archery competition, Nie Shuangshuang should participate in calligraphy, and Wen Sicun should participate in painting.These three arts, the three cannot be said to be the top of the Guozijian, but they are all top-notch in each academy.

But Guozijian wanted to win all four of the five arts, and then Hui An participated in the riding and shooting, Bai Yulin went to compete in chess, and Nie Shuangshuang was appointed to compete in piano.With the Imperial College's decision, it was obvious that Cheng Minyu had given up on the calligraphy competition that Cheng Minyu was going to take part in.

Speaking of which, Cheng Minyu is even more unlucky than Hui'an, not only has no power in her family, but she is also a concubine herself. Although the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are not as well known as Hui'an's national eunuchs, she can't get any of them.Now being selected as one of the reference persons is really not a blessing for her, but a great disaster.

She had been taunted by the students in the dormitory just now, and she was always afraid that Nie Shuangshuang would blame her for not being able to participate in the calligraphy because of her, so seeing Nie Shuangshuang smiling kindly at her, she was relieved, and she started to cry The red and swollen eye sockets were sore again, she hurriedly lowered her head and said gratefully: "Thank you Miss Nie, I...I will work hard."

Hui'an understood Cheng Minyu's situation best at this time, so she couldn't help but also walked over, and said with a smile: "Miss Cheng, don't worry, the Taixue may not be able to choose a good calligrapher, if our Academician Liu is very lucky, we will all If we get someone as inexperienced as me, isn't our Guozijian going to be a hit?"

"Miss Shen is right. Tomorrow, I will post a message to Miss Cheng. Please come to my house to play. We can also learn about calligraphy. I believe it will be helpful for the competition in three days." Nie Shuangshuang said at the right time. He smiled at Hui'an again.

When Cheng Minyu's first-born sister was in the dormitory just now, Nie Shuangshuang had overheard her sneering at her, and now she proposed to invite Nie Shuangshuang to play at her house out of good intentions.

Although Cheng Minyu understood Nie Shuangshuang's kindness, she did not dare to agree. She was afraid that she would hate her even more when she went to the Yongning Hou Mansion tomorrow, so she declined gratefully.

Nie Shuangshuang was not surprised either, she just smiled and said no more.They talked and went out of the courtyard, exchanged some pleasantries, and then went back to their homes.

Hui'an and Wen Sicun went all the way, chatting as they walked, because it was during class time, the road was empty, and the corridor leading to the Art Academy was covered with phoenix trees in two rows, and the fallen leaves fell on the corridor in a thick layer, Hui'an walked one side at a time Responding to Wen Sicun's words one after another.

But the mind was concentrated on the feet, listening to the rustling sound of the two people's shoes stepping on the withered yellow leaves from time to time, it felt very comfortable, and a smile appeared on the corner of their lips.

The winter sun fell through the gaps in the trees and fell on Hui An. She lowered her head and exposed a section of the back of her fair neck. Wen Sicun could clearly see the fine hair on her neck. Seeing that Hui An was absent-minded, he was busy stepping on it. The leaves, without stepping a step, would smile happily when listening to the rustling sound, naturally revealing a childlike side, and Wen Sicun also felt very relaxed and comfortable.

So he quietly accompanied Hui An, stepping on the leaf following her footsteps and rhythm.It wasn't until he came out of the corridor and the teaching dormitory was in sight that he suddenly looked at Hui'an and said, "Must rest tomorrow, is sister Shen interested in going to the western suburbs racecourse with me for horse riding and snow riding?"

Hui'an was stunned for a moment before realizing that Wen Sicun wanted to take advantage of Mu Xiu to teach her how to ride and shoot, but thinking that Wen Sicun would also participate in the painting competition three days later, he hesitated for fear of disturbing him and causing gossip.

The sun shone on Hui An's fair and clean face, and her plump lips parted slightly in surprise, as delicate and moving as the petals of a begonia.

Wen Sicun turned his face sideways, the temperature of the sun made his cheeks slightly hot, and he smiled after a while and said: "The art of painting is not something that can be improved overnight, but sister Shen has always been quite talented in riding and shooting. Practicing more will definitely help. Or is it that younger sister Shen doesn't like my riding and shooting?"

Hearing what he said, there was no room for him to refuse, Hui An hurriedly smiled and said, "It's troublesome."

"It just so happens that the third sister has been talking about being bored for the past two days, so we can go to the western suburbs to relax tomorrow. How about three younger sisters and I waiting for younger sister Shen at the entrance of Tongzheng Street tomorrow?"

Hearing what Wen Sicun said, Hui An lost the last trace of concern in her heart, raised her smiling face, and nodded sincerely and cheerfully at Wen Sicun.

The horse scene in the western suburbs is very beautiful. Although it is winter now, the distant mountains are vast, and the snow color still reflects the blue sky and white clouds. It makes people feel open-minded and happy.

Because the racecourse is only for the nobles of the royal family and nobles in the capital to roam and hunt, a spacious horse track has been repaired, and there are warm pavilions and small watchtowers for people to rest on the side of the road.In addition, a clear stream was specially introduced from Qixia Mountain, flowing around the buildings around the racecourse. In summer, if the shallow stream is murmuring, fish swim happily, and the distant mountains are lush and green, it will make people feel refreshed.
