Chapter 562 Xie Ying: I'm only 4 years old!
Chapter 562 Xie Ying: I'm only 4 years old!
Although she didn't understand why Emperor Taihe suddenly gave so many rewards, Xie Ying still accepted them silently with a smile.
After all, it was very hard for her to be separated from her family and live alone in the palace.
The rankings for the palace examination were soon announced.
However, Xie Ying was depressed to find that she was not familiar with these names, so even if she saw the name, she could not imagine what the other person looked like.
The only one I am familiar with is Zhu Huan.
Zhu Huan successfully passed the imperial examination this time, but he was ranked over 100 and was not very prominent.
Xie Ying waited until the day of "Xiaochuanlu" before she finally saw the top three winners of this session.
However, she was disappointed to find that all three were quite old, with even the youngest being over 30. Although they all had decent looks, they were not the handsome men she liked.
Xie Ying found it rather boring, so after looking at the three people, she lost interest and simply turned around and ran away.
As it turned out, she was riding her bicycle around the palace when she met Yang Tao on the way.
After not seeing each other for more than two years, Yang Tao looked much more mature. He had grown from the silly and timid little kid into a handsome young man. He no longer had the petty airs of the past, but had more dignity that a prince should have.
Of course Xie Ying was not afraid of him.
She pressed the brakes, stopped in front of Yang Tao, and greeted him with a smile: "Brother Tao, don't you have class today?"
Yang Tao: “…”
Xie Ying looked well-behaved, but why did he always feel that there was something wrong with her tone?
He looked at Xie Ying's bicycle again, secretly feeling a little envious.
Although he also had a bicycle, he was a prince and could not do whatever he wanted. So even if he had a bicycle, he could not ride around the palace like Xie Ying did.
When Yang Tao thought of the Master's teachings, he felt a little depressed.
Then he looked at Xie Ying again, and suddenly an idea popped into his mind.
Yang Tao smiled at Xie Ying: "Yingying, you are not a child anymore. It's time for you to start learning. Why don't you come to class with me?"
The smile on Xie Ying's face disappeared instantly: "No! I'm a girl, a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent, so I don't need to go to class!"
Yang Tao immediately frowned and corrected her, "Yingying, who taught you that? It's completely wrong! Didn't Gusu build a women's academy and a women's technical college? How can you still believe such nonsense?"
Xie Ying played dumb: "Is that a fallacy? But a lot of people say that."
"A lot of people say that?" Yang Tao was even more dissatisfied. "Who are they?"
"Well, there are so many people anyway. I don't know their names."
Xie Ying was not lying. Gusu did build a women's academy, but many people also thought that this was inappropriate. Women should not go to academies to study, let alone learn the Four Books and Five Classics. It is more appropriate to study "Female Admonitions" and "Female Virtues" at home.
Xie Ying naturally looked down on these people, but she was just a little kid and it was not right for her to argue with others.
So she quietly followed these people for a while, then recorded all their dirty deeds in private and asked Lin Xiao to publish them in the gossip tabloids.
Lin Xiao had previously gone to Langhuan Island to guard the gold mine, but because he disliked the sea breeze there, he tried every means to return to Suzhou and patrolled the city every day.
Xie Ying gave him an idea, asking him to secretly run a gossip tabloid and publish all kinds of gossip.
Don’t be fooled by Lin Xiao’s cold face all day long, looking like a handsome and indifferent guy who doesn’t want strangers to approach him. In fact, this guy not only loves food, but also particularly likes gossip.
As soon as Xie Ying made the suggestion, his eyes instantly brightened up eight degrees, and he pretended to be righteous and loyal, willing to die for Xie Ying, which made Xie Ying feel particularly disgusted.
But this guy runs a pretty good gossip tabloid.
Not only did he accept all the ideas Xie Ying gave him, he also applied them to other situations and came up with a lot of cool moves.
This gossip tabloid does better business than Xie Tang's newspaper.
Every time he came to see Xie Ying, he smiled particularly attentively, and the upturned corners of his mouth could not be suppressed at all.
Even though Xie Ying split the profits with him 50-50, he still looked at Xie Ying as if he was looking at the God of Wealth.
Xie Ying thought of Lin Xiao and couldn't help but sigh.
Alas, she was suddenly taken to the palace by Emperor Taihe to live, and she didn’t know if Lin Xiao missed her.
Suzhou.
Lin Xiao stood with his hands behind his back, leisurely patrolling the city with a few of his younger brothers, smiling at everyone he met.
One of the younger brothers couldn't help but ask, "Brother Lin, why do you seem so happy lately? Did you get rich?"
As soon as he asked, the other brothers also looked at Lin Xiao with burning eyes, looking very curious.
Lin Xiao glanced at a few people, then snorted smugly: "You don't understand."
When the little ancestor went to the capital, the mountain pressing on his head disappeared in an instant. He now felt that the sky was blue and the water was clear, and he was happy to see everything.
Besides, this little ancestor is so powerful. She has become a princess at such a young age. Maybe she will become a princess soon.
Can he be unhappy?
Lin Xiao hummed a little tune excitedly.
He was still thinking smugly: He was right to be transferred back to Gusu from Langhuan Island. What good is that broken island? Every day is just blowing the sea breeze and eating salted fish. It's boring.
It’s not like Gusu, which is prosperous, has all kinds of delicious food and gossip, and you can make money.
The young ancestor treats him very well. It would be even better if he could stay in the capital forever.
Lin Xiao raised the corners of his mouth happily, and walked as if with the wind.
The younger brothers didn't know what he was thinking, but they didn't dare to delay and quickly chased after him.
At the same time, Beijing.
Xie Ying sighed and then pretended to look at Yang Tao pitifully: "Brother Tao, I'm a girl. If I go to class, the teacher won't agree, right? You'd better go by yourself. Don't make the teacher angry. I heard that the teacher is very fierce and will slap the palm of your hand."
Yang Tao was deeply moved and said quickly, "Don't be afraid, Yingying. I will definitely let you attend class with me. If the teacher doesn't agree, then he is wrong!
Confucius said that there is no distinction between the two. How can the Master refuse to teach you just because you are a woman? Come on, I will take you to see the Master right away!"
Xie Ying quickly refused: "Don't do that! The Master will be angry!"
Unfortunately, Yang Tao didn't listen and insisted on dragging Xie Ying to class.
Xie Ying's face turned black with anger: "..."
She is only four years old, and she is being dragged to class!
The Master was also confused when he saw Xie Ying. He asked Yang Tao in confusion, "Your Highness, why did you bring Princess Fu'an with you?"
Yang Tao raised his chin: "Yingying is already four years old, it's time for her to start learning! She will go to class with me from now on!"
The teacher looked at Xie Ying in surprise. Xie Ying looked pitiful and kept shaking her head at him.
The teacher suddenly found it funny, so he agreed directly: "That's not bad. Princess Fu'an is obviously very smart. She should be enlightened earlier. We can't waste her talent."
Xie Ying glared at him unhappily: You asked for this!
So the teacher soon regretted it.
