Queen Juan is here, run away

Chapter 149 Why Are You So Honest

Facing the empress dowager's tricky question, Lihua was speechless.

She murmured in her heart that the big boss of the harem was so kind to her. He asked others questions about food, clothing and housing in the palace, and what he had learned at home, but he asked her so sharply.

However, Lihua knew that this question was meant for investigation, which meant that she had attracted the Queen Mother's attention, which was an opportunity.

But I can't refute it directly. People in the palace have poisonous eyes and are naturally thinking a lot. Instead of explaining it to make people think it is sophistry, it is better to recognize it first and then explain it.

While her thoughts were in a hurry, Lihua didn't refute, she made a dangerous move, and directly admitted: "Yes."

The queen mother didn't expect Lihua to be so straightforward, and publicly admitted that she didn't want to teach other beautiful girls, without explaining a single extra word.

Earlier, I heard Mother Qin say how good pear blossoms are, but I really saw them today, and the Queen Mother has a little more consideration for pear blossoms.

She raised her face and asked, "But why?"

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense.

Qin Nanny was sweating for Lihua immediately, thinking that the answer was too direct, how could she just admit it like that, at least explain a few words.

But I heard Li Hua reply neither humble nor overbearing: "Returning to the Queen Mother's words, from what I have seen these days, the sisters who have been selected into the palace are all outstanding, each with their own talents, but the servants only know a little about arithmetic, and they did not have the confidence to teach the sisters well before. "

In one sentence, all the beautiful girls are praised, including myself, and even the queen mother is praised.

Because all the beautiful women selected into the palace have been reviewed by the Queen Mother, and some of them were specially selected by the Queen Mother.

The empress dowager calmed down, and felt a little relieved, but asked: "Hearing you say that, do you feel that you are also outstanding?"

"This..." Li Hua's tone was a bit awkward, as if hesitating for a while, she still decided to tell the truth: "The servants will only know after they are elected to the palace..." The tone weakened.

With this sentence, the queen mother was successfully amused.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly relaxed.

Although this is not enough to be self-effacing, it is better to be generous and say what you think, which is not offensive.

Unlike some people who talk modestly and are very contented in their hearts, this kind of person is seen a lot in empress dowagers, but it is rare to see people like pear blossoms.

She smiled and said to Nanny Qin beside her, "Oh, look at how sincere this child is."

Nanny Qin heaved a sigh of relief, then smiled and said, "Empress Dowager, Young Master Wu has always been like this."

The queen mother nodded with a smile, and looked back at Lihua: "The Ai family has seen your math test questions, and those who are proficient in it are unattainable, but I just listened, why do you think it is not good? Sometimes it is not good to be too self-effacing."

Lihua knew that this was because she praised herself for being outstanding, and said that she knew a little about arithmetic, and the inconsistency aroused the empress dowager's paranoia.

She sighed a little: "What the Empress Dowager said is very true. It's just that the master who taught the servants in the past said that the servants are not good at arithmetic and will not succeed. Therefore, I dare not teach others easily."

In modern times, her university mathematics teacher sighed and felt sorry for her, saying that she had a certain talent in mathematics, but her research was not deep enough and focused enough.

The three majors she studied in college and graduate school are all different. It is said that it is difficult to eat more than one can chew. It is difficult to achieve success in mathematics.

"Your arithmetic is mediocre?" The queen mother was a little puzzled.

From what she can see, Lihua is already very good at arithmetic, and girls in the boudoir seldom learn it except for learning the art of running a family.

She listened to what Ewha meant, did she ask the husband to study arithmetic, is he still very deep?
Just how deep can it go?This involves the knowledge blind spot of the Empress Dowager.

Lihua nodded affirmatively: "Empress Dowager, let me listen to this servant, the knowledge of arithmetic is profound and broad, like a vast ocean, this servant only understands a part of it..."

In order to prove her words, Lihua was not polite, and immediately talked about math problems to the Queen Mother.

From small to people's livelihood, to the country, all aspects of mathematical problems involved are mentioned, and then a few difficult mathematical problems and their meanings are cited in popular language.

Finally, he said: "Look, there are so many arithmetic problems that need to be solved urgently in the world, what is the arithmetic of slaves?"

The Empress Dowager and all the palace attendants, including Nanny Qin, felt dizzy and dizzy, and were led by Lihua.

Even if she couldn't understand, the queen mother agreed: "It is true."

The queen mother refreshed her understanding of mathematics. After what Lihua said, she realized that mathematics is more profound and useful than she imagined, and the operation of the country cannot be separated from it.

She was convinced that Lihua was telling the truth, and she didn't want to teach Xiunu because she felt that she was not good enough, not because she really didn't want to teach.

In this way, Lihua passed the temptation and test of the queen mother, left a deep impression on the queen mother, and won a lot of rewards.

When it was the next show girl's turn, the queen mother was still immersed in the arithmetic problems that Lihua had mentioned.

When Wu Fang was a child, the queen mother regained her spirits and asked for a long time.

At the end of the question, the queen mother was silent, there was nothing to boast about, and she just said: "You are a special girl, thank you."

Raise your hand and let someone give you the prepared reward.

After seeing each of the beautiful women, the queen mother rewarded them according to their performance. Among them, Chen Sisi and Lihua received the most rewards, followed by Wu Fang'er.

Showgirls only need to roughly compare the rewards they get with those of others to guess whether they will stay or not.

The well-rewarded show girl, even if she behaved herself well, her face revealed joy, and she tried her best to suppress it and dare not show it.

The show girls who are generally rewarded know that their performance is not good, and when the dust settles, there is nothing unwilling, and they all feel depressed.

But when the show girls saw that Wu Fang'er had also won a generous reward, they were all stunned as if they had been struck by lightning.

Just Wu Fang'er?

The study of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" is a mess, and the cultivation of the land is a mess. The vegetable seedlings in the small flowerpot, with yellowish leaves, will not be happy.

This guy doesn't know anything, he will show off his prestige, and he looks like he can't stand on the stage.

Seeing the Queen Mother, she couldn't even speak clearly, her legs were shaking like chaff, and she couldn't move smoothly.

She also deserves a big reward?

Which show girl is no better than her!

However, Wu Fang'er got shit luck and got into the eyes of the queen mother again. The situation is stronger than others.

Xiunu had no choice but to suppress her shock, not daring to make mistakes.

Xiu Nu, who was more thoughtful and intelligent, turned her head around and figured out why.

The empress dowager rewarded not Wu Fang'er, but the face of the emperor.

The old queen mother can't see the thoughts of the show girls, it's just...

Alas, it's rare for the emperor to treat a woman so special, let's go.

Then the pace is very fast.

According to the "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", the queen mother made a comprehensive consideration of the good show girls in "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", farming and Zhenghui Pavilion, and circled the favorite show girls.

In addition to the original decision of the emperor, a total of ten beautiful women were retained in this general election, which is not too many.
