Dressed as a vicious stepmother, the whole family is full of wealth

Chapter 168, the capable are the bottom, the fools are the top

"You just need to teach some salutations and return gifts. After all, she is just a peasant woman. She can't get close to the Ninth Prince. You don't need to learn the big gifts. Some basic etiquette are easy to teach. Just let her be prepared and don't be rude. gone."

Professor Wei worriedly said that although the characters are good and wild, it is just that this person is a village woman and has little knowledge.

Yan Ziqin nodded, understanding what the two of them meant: "Then I'll pick them up right away!"

Tang Shan hummed, and he urged: "Don't forget to take out that painting, it will be exhibited today! Alas, this time there are many outstanding ones, and I don't know if Mr. Liu has taken a fancy to the painting."

Yan Ziqin smiled: "Yaoshan Academy has characters, but you still think about painting, the head of the mountain, don't think too much, everything comes naturally, Yaoshan Academy can know every word, that's enough! If there are too many, Yaoshan Academy is afraid I can't bear the weight anymore."

Tang Shan smiled, "Who says it can't last, as long as the painting can win the first prize, our Yaoshan Academy will be able to bear it."

Alas, after all, Mrs. Xiao is not from Yaoshan Academy, she just represents Yaoshan Academy. If she can be appreciated by Mr. Zhang and pay more attention to Yaoshan Academy in the future, that would be the best thing. Could it be possible for them? Do you still expect the painting to be favored by Mr. Liu?
……

This Yaoshan Autumn Painting and Calligraphy Exhibition attracted students from various prefectures and counties, the leaders were the students from Guozijian, these people stayed in the academy last night, only the princes and young ladies went to other places arranged by the Houfu Stay in the hotel.

The Ninth Prince stayed in the Hou Mansion, and the Hou Ye and the town general were away, and Chi Yan handled all the foreign affairs of the Hou Mansion by himself.

Early in the morning, Chi Yan came to the Ninth Prince's bed to pay his respects. Before the wounds on his body were cleaned up, he came alone.

Standing outside the courtyard of the Ninth Prince, Chi Yan asked his personal guards when the prince would get up and go to the academy.

The Ninth Prince hadn't gotten up yet, and it was normal for him to go to bed late today after entering the residence late last night.

Chi Yan heard that the Ninth Prince hadn't woken up yet, so he simply stood at the door and waited, but it took him more than an hour to wait.

Until the guard inside came out: "My lord, the lord said you can go in."

Chi Yan saluted and walked in with the guards.

When he came to the yard, before he entered the door, Chi Yan heard the sound of laughter coming from inside.

"My lord, people are coming soon... Hehe, take out your hand!" A charming voice came out.

"Yes, my lord, the prince is coming..." another said delicately.

Immediately afterwards, a mellow voice said: "I heard that the son of the Hou Mansion often goes to Lixiangfang. I have seen a lot of such scenes. It's okay... Quickly show me again. Did you kiss here last night? Or here? Huh?"

"My lord... the prince is different from you, um, um." She said softly, "My lord, every time I go, I go to smell the fragrance!"

"That's right, the prince is not as interesting as the prince. Every time the prince asks us to stand there and smell the fragrance, it's boring. Prince, there are still..." Jiao Didi lowered her voice.

When Chi Yan heard this, his eyes were indifferent, and he just followed the guards towards the house without any expression.

When the two approached, the guard said: "My lord, the prince has arrived."

"Let him in!" The Ninth Prince shouted.

The guard made a gesture of invitation, and pushed the door to let Chi Yan in.

As soon as Chi Yan got started, his brain hurt from the smell inside. He liked to smell the fragrance, but he didn't like to smell this kind of muddy fragrance.

"My lord!" He pretended not to hear the blessing.

Ninth Prince Zhao Qian smiled and said: "I have waited outside for more than an hour, do you feel resentful?"

Chi Yan saluted: "My lord's boat is exhausted, and the bumps are unbearable. I deeply feel that it's not easy for my lord. This hour is nothing!"

"Hehe, you speak so sweetly at such a young age, no wonder even the emperor knows your name!" Zhao Qian paused, and asked with a smile: "But I heard that you and I have the same hobby, that is, you like to go to this gentle town. Run, I found two of you to come over late last night to wait on me. After this night, um, it made me feel refreshed physically and mentally. The women in Lixiangfang in Yaoshan are all very attractive. , these goblins are good at grinding people!"

Chi Yan responded with a smile, not caring about the sourness in his words, and said: "If the prince likes it, you can choose the women in Lixiangfang at will. After today's calligraphy and painting exhibition, Chi Yan will find a few more unprofessional fragrant women , sent to chat with the prince to relieve boredom?"

"Hehe, it's interesting..." Zhao Qian smiled, shaking and nodding at Chi Yan: "You really understand my heart. I just like this kind of unpretentious people. I'm used to seeing those well-dressed, but you are open-minded. I like it!"

As he spoke, he stood up and pushed the two women beside him away: "Go out and receive the reward!"

The two women tidied up their fallen clothes, quickly put on their cloaks, covered their faces, turned around, bowed to them and went out.

Zhao Qian stood up and went to the washbasin. He washed his hands with soap locusts, washed them over and over again, and said with a smile, "After touching these women, you must wash them more often, they are dirty!"

Seeing that he not only washed his hands, but also washed his body, Chi Yan stood aside and lowered his head.

After Zhao Qian finished washing, he turned around and looked at Chi Yan who was bowing his head: "Come here, change clothes!"

"By the way, what's the name of that? Calligraphy and painting exhibition, is it time to start?"

Chi Yan replied: "It's the Autumn Painting and Calligraphy Exhibition, but when will it start? The officials haven't received the time yet. Why don't you wait for the prince to get dressed and ask the officials."

Zhao Qian smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and looked at Chi Yan with a more careful gaze, as if appreciating it. He knew when it would start, but he said he didn't know, and he still had to wait for him. Not reckless, no wonder people often hear him mentioned.

At this time, a guard came in and changed Zhao Qian's clothes.

"Children Chi, I heard that a few days ago, General Yu gave the emperor a very detailed map of Yaoshan. It was sent from you. Have you been in Yaoshan many times? The depths of Yaoshan are very familiar. Is it?" Zhao Qian asked suddenly.

When Chi Yan heard that he had been under house arrest for five years, but he had been doing everything all night, he became more cautious in replying.

"Returning to the lord, it was obtained by the official from a farmer on the side of the mountain. Through her dictation and memory, she roughly described some important directions of the mountain. When she said it carefully, she indirectly praised the official's memory and imagination."

Zhao Qian smiled without saying a word.

After a few breaths, the guard changed into the clothes he had prepared earlier. He wore a jade belt in regular clothes, and the jade crown on his head was strung under his chin. After he was dressed neatly, he stood in front of the mirror. A bit regal.

Chi Yan sighed secretly, it was indeed the person who once competed with the Holy One for the throne, his eyes were still sharp.

The two walked out of the yard together and got into the carriage.

On the way, Zhao Qian asked Chi Yan to ride in a carriage with him, and did not let him ride on horseback.

In the carriage, Zhao Qian had nothing to do and asked, "How is your son riding and shooting?"

Chi Yan smiled calmly and said: "The capable ones are at the bottom, and the fools are at the top. For example, if you compare them with those two around the prince, it will embarrass others, so don't mention it."
