Chapter 14
But not long after, the order in Mingde Hall soon became chaotic.
Everyone just got together. When they were curious about their new companions, Master Ji left and started chatting with the people around him. Even the fourth prince with a paralyzed face had a few intermittent conversations with his companions Chen Li.
The sixth prince, Yoonzuo, had just passed the exam and was punished to copy books five times. He had prepared paper and ink and was copying "The way of a gentleman is paid and hidden". He did not rush to talk to Fu Xuechen, but instead kept copying.
He was not slow to write, and his regular script looked pretty beautiful, but his characters were a bit large and it was cumbersome to write. Fu Xuechen looked at him silently. After seeing that he finished writing a page, he changed him to new paper.
"Thank you!"
Yoongzuo took a break from his busy schedule and smiled at her, constantly copying the text that he was punished to copy in full. Then he stopped writing. While gently drying the homework in his hand, he looked at Fu Xuechen with appreciation and said, "I like your teenager theory very much! It's so good literary!"
Fu Xuechen imitated Fu Yuchen's smug expression that desperately concealed but couldn't help but reveal a little, and smiled with curvy eyebrows: "Your Highness is a rude! That day I was just an occasional inspiration, and I didn't have such a good level in normal times."
As the daughter of the Hou Mansion, no matter how good the poems and articles are written, it is meaningless. Fu Xuechen decided to copy the classics that time to compete for the quota for companionship. Now that she has obtained the quota, she has no intention of doing anything like that. From now on, it will be great to lie down comfortably and live a life of sanitation!
Just a momentary inspiration burst out? Yoongzuo didn't believe it and said, "Anyway, you should reward it if you write a good article! I'll treat you to delicious food at noon! Although the lunch in the imperial kitchen is also good, the food my mother sent to send is even more delicious, and you must try it at that time."
Fu Xuechen was also very interested in what the princes’ lunch was, and immediately responded without hesitation: "Thank you, Your Highness!"
Yoongzuo nodded: "Okay! I have to continue copying the text, do whatever you want!"
Fu Xuechen smiled. After all, he was only a thirteen-year-old child. He was a junior high school student in his previous life. So what if the sixth prince was a prince? No matter how noble his status is, it cannot hide his childishness. The first reward he can think of is food. He wants to show goodwill, but he still has to hold a little air.
However, these sixth princes are really a bit diligent and excellent student. They are in a chaotic classroom, and they are obviously not in charge of the teacher. They can read and chat with their new companions like most brothers, but they still choose to copy their homework first.
Fu Xuechen was slightly distracted and recalled his junior high school days. At that time, there were also class grass in the class, and the other party was a top student. With a gentle and elegant appearance, every move was like a scenery in a painting, which made people always couldn't help but pass their eyes over...
Yoongzuo kept copying and soon filled another page, but this time, no pair of white and slender hands reached out to take away the paper full of words, and then changed to a page of blank new paper. He glanced back and saw his companion holding his head with his head tilted and half leaning on the table, his eyelids kept sinking, and he actually fell asleep.
Yoongzuo: "..."
Is it because I got up too early and didn’t sleep enough? Or did I receive an imperial edict last night and learn that I was too excited to sleep? I actually dared to doze in Mingde Hall when I came to accompany me on the first day. This is under the emperor’s nose, not the unconventional school with a casual style!
Yoongzuo paused and couldn't help but clear his throat.
Fu Xuechen was shocked, opened his eyes and came to his senses, and faced the Sixth Prince's bright eyes that were as deep as the starry sky.
"Hehehe" Fu Xuechen laughed a few times, and quickly changed the paper for the other party: "Your Highness, please continue."
Yoongzuo was amused by the embarrassment and flattery she showed so openly without any psychological burden: "Do Yuchen feel too bored?"
"Not..." Fu Xuechen didn't know what words to use to quibble.
But Yoonzuo said casually: "It's a riding and archery class in the afternoon, so you won't be bored at that time. I look at Yuchen and your archery skills are quite unfamiliar. I really don't deserve the reputation of Ling Zun Jingbeihou, but it doesn't matter. I ask myself whether the archery skills are bad, and I will help you improve your archery skills at that time."
Is the Sixth Prince's archery good? Fu Xuechen could clearly feel the other party's confidence, so even though he had never seen the other party's archery skills, Fu Xuechen still expressed a look of joy and thanked: "Thank you, Your Highness!"
This happy expression is a bit fake! Yoongzuo's lips twitched.
After more than half an hour, Yoongzuo finally finished copying his homework five times, got up, picked up a large stack of paper and handed it to Master Li, which was exchanged for Master Li's nod.
The time can be said to be just right. There was a little eunuch who reported the time outside and rang the clapper, and all the morning class was over.
The students' lunch was also used in Mingde Hall. A row of eunuchs who had been waiting outside each had their own food boxes in their hands. They hurried into the school. When they found their master, they hurried over and gave their gifts first. After the master allowed them, they started to cook dishes.
The person who served the sixth prince was a young eunuch of fifteen or sixteen years old. He was thin and vigorous, his skin was not fair, and his appearance was just ordinary. He only had a pair of eyes, which was a rare phoenix eye, and his voice was not sharp and ugly.
"This is my companion, named Li Zhen, and he will bring us lunch in the future!" Yoongzuo introduced Fu Xuechen.
Li Zhen bowed to Fu Xuechen as a tribute: "I have seen Mr. Fu!"
"You are kind to you, Co-Father Li." Fu Xuechen nodded and smiled at him, not feeling strange or uncomfortable because the other party was a eunuch.
Only eunuchs with official positions and identities can be called "father-in-law". Ordinary eunuchs are not qualified to be called "father-in-law". Yoongzuo will call Li Zhen as Li's companion. Fu Xuechen, as Yoongzuo's accompanying study, can call him this, or directly call him his name.
Li Zhen held two food boxes in his hand, one with black paint, exactly the same as the food boxes in most other eunuchs, while the other was red paint, which was twice as big as the black paint food boxes. When he put out all the food and bowls in the two food boxes, Fu Xuechen discovered that the dishes in the black paint food boxes were all common dishes, and the red paint food boxes were full of delicacies, with only the same rice.
Yoongzuo placed all the dishes in the red lacquer food box in front of Fu Xuechen: "My mother is afraid that I won't be used to the lunch in the school, so she brought me the delicious food made in the small kitchen in Yanning Palace. You can eat more of this and give you a reward!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Fu Xuechen tasted a few times and indeed enjoyed the joy of the food, but in fact, the dishes delivered by the school kitchen were not much different. She also liked the braised pork and stewed chicken soup.
Adolescents are very good at eating, and puberty girls are actually very good at eating than women of other ages. After a morning class, Fu Xuechen seemed to have regained the feeling of being a student in his previous life. He was hungry quickly, so he ate delicious food. Sometimes he was too focused and accidentally grabbed the same piece of meat with the Sixth Prince.
