I can't afford to mess with the concubine doctor

Chapter 192 Flying Flower Order

"Just kidding, how can those students who only know how to read books every day but have no other talents be your opponents?" Rong Sheng, who was thirsty, raised his head and drank the warm tea, with a pair of dark and bright eyes Eyes full of admiration, "Last time you accidentally recited the phrase 'Luohua people are independent, and the little swifts fly together'. It was so beautiful. I went back and told my mother, and my mother couldn't help but praise you for your delicate thoughts. Brilliant."

Um, did you say that?
Qu Lingxu recalled a little bit, her eyes were full of understanding, that's right, Rong Sheng came to play with her that day, just as there was a continuous autumn rain in the sky, the two were sitting by the window enjoying the rain and drinking tea, she suddenly Thinking of the famous line in Yan Jidao's "Linjiang Immortal", she said it casually. At that time, Rong Sheng didn't make any comments. She thought the other party didn't care, but unexpectedly, she silently memorized it in her heart.

There are no such dynasties as Song, Yuan and Ming in this time and space, Rong Sheng naturally didn't know that this sentence was written by famous experts, not Qu Lingxu, and it was inconvenient for Qu Lingxu to explain, so he had to brazenly indulge in the glory of his predecessors.

The feeling of standing on the shoulders of giants is really quite good.

Rong Sheng was impatient at first, but seeing that he had explained clearly, Qu Lingxu was still sitting there motionless, and couldn't help but walk over to shake her sleeve again, and said in a hurry: "Xuxu, let's go quickly, and then we'll go again." Later, it will be too late!"

Qu Lingxu has always loved poetry and songs, now that he has so many famous words in his mind, he naturally wants to join in the fun and compete, but...

"I just want to accompany you, but you can't let me wear this outfit?" Qu Lingxu glanced at the homely skirt on her body, got up and said to Yunyi: "Find the men's outfit that I prepared a few days ago." come out."

Although this era is not as feudal as the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there are still a lot of restrictions on women. Thinking that she will have to go out for more activities in the future, Qu Lingxu asked Nanny Cui to help her make a set of men's clothing. Unexpectedly It came in handy so quickly.

Rong Sheng only wanted to let Qu Lingxu help him win the championship, but ignored these details, made a somewhat embarrassed face, and urged: "Hurry up, I'll wait for you here."

Rong Sheng's appearance made Qu Lingxu quite helpless, and said with a light smile, "Got it."

Due to Rong Sheng's urging, Qu Lingxu deliberately accelerated the speed of changing clothes. She was dressed in snow-white Shu brocade satin. Around her waist was a long white silk tassel embroidered with gold thread, and the white suet jade pendant was tied on it. The one that Yuan Xun gave last time, in order to match the clothes, she took a white jade hairpin from the makeup box and coiled up the long black hair, looked at the mirror for a while, and made sure that there was no flaw in the man's disguise. Just now he got up and walked towards the outer hall.

"Okay, let's go!"

Rong Sheng was waiting anxiously in the living room, when he heard Qu Lingxu's familiar voice, he subconsciously looked up, but saw the person in front of him with eyebrows growing into his temples, a pair of smart almond eyes without any impurities, clear but not deep Bottom line, the bridge of the nose is high and straight, the skin is as fair as fat, and the three thousand black hair is black and smooth against the backdrop of the white hairpin, just like a handsome, gentle and elegant nobleman.

The people on Mo are like jade, and the son is unparalleled in the world.

"Xuxu, you..." Rong Sheng had seen Qu Lingxu's serious and decisive look, resolute and ruthless look, a dignified and elegant look with a smile and annoyance, but he never expected that she would have such a heroic look On the one hand, even a man like him couldn't help being greedy.

"What are you, why don't you leave? Does it mean that you don't want to go out before the Chinese New Year?" Qu Lingxu gave Rong Sheng an annoyed look, took his wrist and walked out.

It seems that after a while in the carriage, she will have to "make up" a little bit to make her face look different from the first glance.

"Xuxu, what are you doing, don't do it!" Seeing that Qu Lingxu took out a small golden box as if conjuring, and rubbed the dusty powder on his face with a powder puff, Young Master Rong Sheng immediately protested .

"We're here to compete for talent, not for beauty. It's always better to keep a low profile." Seeing that her fair skin was covered with a dark shadow due to the eyebrow powder, Qu Lingxu was quite satisfied He quickly closed the lid, then moved the powder puff in his hand to Rong Sheng's face mischievously, and said with a wicked smile, "Why don't you take some too?"

"I don't want it." When it comes to cleanliness, Rong Sheng definitely has a fight with his cousin Leng Dashizi, and quickly dodges to the side, avoiding Qu Lingxu's attack range, curling his lips in 'disgust': "Young Master's prosperous beauty is absolutely not allowed to be flawed."

Having been with Qu Lingxu for a long time, Rong Sheng also learned a few modern words, among which 'prosperous beauty' is his favorite.

"Superficial." Qu Lingxu gave Rong Sheng a disgusted look, but didn't intend to make trouble with him, neatly put away the powder puff, opened the curtain and looked aimlessly at the scenery outside the window.

For some reason, she always felt that the atmosphere on the street today was a bit strange, as if a pair of eyes were watching her silently.

But the feeling was just a feeling after all, nothing unusual happened on the road, and they arrived at the street where the entrance of the Zhaimen was located smoothly.

Zhai has always been a gathering place for literati. The three-story building with black tiles and white walls exudes elegance everywhere, as if there is a faint fragrance of ink blowing towards the face. It's just that there are no lights and festoons in such a grand game today, which shows that it is low-key.

Because there were too many people going to the competition or watching the battle, the carriage was blocked at the intersection for a long time and they couldn't move in. Qu Lingxu and Rong Sheng simply got out of the car and walked. Many scholars walked in twos and threes on the road, discussing with each other, and they were thriving. direction.

"Xuxu, I've already been eliminated, and I can only wait for you in the spectator area for a while, you have to work hard." Rong Sheng clenched his small fists and made a "come on" gesture.

"Understood." Qu Lingxu couldn't help laughing at Rong Sheng's anticipation, and said with a chuckle, "Speaking of the news of your being eliminated, the old lady will definitely know, even if I can get a good ranking, it won't change the fact that you will be punished reality."

She wanted to say this before, but she was stubbed over and over again, so she didn't ask until now.

"How could it be the same." Rong Sheng's dark and bright eyes shone like jade, completely showing the mischievous appearance of a child taking advantage of the loopholes, "You can get a good ranking, which shows that you are talented. "When you get close to vermilion, you get red; when you get close to ink, you get black." I can only improve if I learn more from you."

As for whether to play around or really study at Qu Lingxu's place, it is not up to grandma to decide.

"You actually want to use me as a shield. Your wishful thinking is really good." Qu Lingxu snorted pretendingly angrily, and grabbed Rong Sheng's little ear and said, "It's fine if I don't get the ranking, just in case I leave If you're lucky, you just wait to copy all the Four Books and Five Classics in the Jianjiayuan study!"

Wanting to use the excuse of studying to be lazy, Qu Lingxu said bluntly: "It's a good idea!"
Qu Lingxu's words made Rong Sheng's originally radiant little face collapse in an instant, and he begged with a mournful face, "Xuxu, don't be like this, I'm obviously your favorite little cutie!"

cute?
Qu Lingxu almost rolled his eyes to the sky.

She decided not to speak modern words in front of Rong Sheng again, so as not to be misused by this kid.

After chatting for a while, the gate of Zhai also arrived. As Rong Sheng said, there is no threshold limit for the first pass. As long as you report your name, you can enter the first floor in batches to pass the first pass, which is the first test.

It is said to be the first test, but the content is not simple. A group of ten people will compete in the flying flower order. That is to say, the organizer will give a main word, and the contestants will say a poem first, and the other nine people can come and pick it up until the end of the competition.

Fighting against the nine people with one's own strength, if it weren't for the astonishing reserve of poems in his mind, he would never have passed.

It was not easy for Rong Sheng, a ten-year-old child, to pass this test.

After deliberately dressing up, although Qu Lingxu's appearance is not so eye-catching, she can't hide her luxurious temperament. In addition, as a woman, she is shorter than ordinary men in height Some, so as soon as they entered the hall, they attracted everyone's attention, and the children of those noble families even whispered to their companions, wondering which noble son was in front of them.

However, no matter how much you guessed, it was doomed to be in vain. Fortunately, the organizer did not reduce the efficiency of the work because of the doubts of the players. Qu Lingxu soon entered the competition area at the back of the hall with nine other people.

Of course, Qu Lingxu now uses the alias he just chose: Qu Fan.

The subject word of the written test is determined by lottery. What Qu Lingxu drew was a very common word "dream", but this is not a good thing, because the more common the subject word, the more poems others know about this word , making it harder to win.

"Three nights of dreaming about you, you will see your love." A gentleman dressed in light gray linen uttered the first sentence, and Qu Lingxu came to pick him up.

Qu Lingxu thought for a while, then raised his voice and said, "At night, we will travel hand in hand in dreams, and in the morning, we will be full of tears."

There was almost no gap, and someone among the other nine people immediately answered: "The old man is like my dream, it means that I remember each other."

Qu Lingxu thought for a moment, then said with a smile: "I didn't see Bi Danqing in my dream, and I exclaimed in secret that the mountain bird was singing."

This is a poem written by Jiang Kui in the Song Dynasty. Since the Song Dynasty did not exist in this time and space, the others, including the gentlemen, were slightly surprised, but they had to admit that this sentence was well-organized and profound, and there was nothing wrong with it.

Therefore, everyone tacitly chose to remain silent, otherwise, wouldn't it be that they appear to be ignorant of their talents and knowledge, and they don't even know where such good poems come from.

"I'm in a state of insanity due to illness, and I only dream of idlers, not kings." Immediately, another person interjected.

"Looking at the sword with the lamp on while drunk, dreaming of blowing horns and battalion." Qu Lingxu said indifferently.

"Entering the King and Traveling in Dreams to come thousands of miles, I have been idle for two years." This time, there was a slight pause before someone spoke. It was obvious that Qu Lingxu's famous lines of "hearing and asking" one after another disturbed their minds.
