The Journey of Immortality of the Peerless Medical Concubine

Chapter 214: Gentle, Respectful and Humble

In response, Wen Liuli could only smile bitterly, and then bowed slightly to Tang Zhentian and Tang Zongluan.

She didn't expect that the news of her dispute with the students at the foot of the mountain would spread here so quickly.

Although she had not read many books, she more or less knew the value of those words. She did not expect that they would also work here.

"Come, come, come and sit down!"

"Yes!"

After smiling, Wen Liuli and Tang Tianyu looked at each other, then walked slowly towards Tang Zongluan and sat on his left.

On the right side of Tang Zongluan sat Tang Zhentian and Queen Li, and below them were Tang Tianling's brothers and their wives.

Just by looking at their seats, one can tell the status of these people.

"Sister Wang, you are amazing. You can actually write poetry!"

During the conversation, Tang Linger had walked to Wen Liuli's side without knowing it, and her eyes were full of admiration when she looked at Wen Liuli.

Hearing this, Wen Liuli couldn't help but twitch his lips. It turns out that in your eyes, being able to write poetry is amazing.

I think everyone here, except me, can write poetry. And I can recite poetry.

"If you study hard, you can write too."

After a while, Wen Liuli smiled bitterly and spoke slowly.

"Then can I be as good as Wang Sao?"

"How am I so great?"

"Sister Wang, you didn't see how shocked these people were when Grandpa Huang wrote those words. They were so full of goose eggs."

Thinking of the scene just now, Tang Linger couldn't help but sigh repeatedly. As a princess, she naturally received a lot of education since she was a child. For example, Kong Xueli could be regarded as her teacher.

It's just that I didn't learn it for long.

But in all his life, this was the first time that Tang Linger saw Kong Xueli show such an expression because of a poem.

You have to know that Kong Xueli himself is a great literary figure with a high status. He has at least 800 poems written by his students, and he is extremely strict with his students. It is difficult to even hear praise from him.

And today he almost lost his composure because of a poem by Wen Liuli. This was something Tang Linger had never dared to even think about.

"Grandpa Emperor has also ordered Old Man Kong to carve your poem at the entrance of Huang Academy to remind all students. Sister Wang, you are really amazing."

"Forehead......"

Wen Liuli had never expected that so many things would happen on the mountain in just a short while.

But should we carve the four lines of Hengqu at the entrance of the academy? It seems that many schools in China have done this before. If it is this one, it is worth doing so.

Tang Tianyu was no exception to this. He felt that not replacing the plaque at the gate of Huang College was already very conservative. In his opinion, the gate plaque of Huang College should be placed on the ground, while the words should be hung on the door.

"Oh, yes, and your song about the charcoal seller. After I heard it, I immediately bought all the charcoal in the imperial city. Why didn't I realize how pitiful they were before?"

"Ah? You bought all the charcoal?"

Hearing this, Wen Liuli and Tang Tianyu couldn't help but widen their eyes. Wow, you really know how to do things, you are indeed a rich man.

"Yes, I wouldn't have known if you hadn't told me. Most of those charcoal sellers are elderly people. They are so pitiful."

"Can your house use so much charcoal?"

"I can't use it, but that doesn't stop me from buying some. I've already made arrangements so that all the servants in the mansion will have charcoal to use this winter."

"Forehead......"

Tang Linger's words obviously made the couple drop their jaws in shock. They didn't expect that this girl was such a ruthless person.

Let alone buying all the charcoal from the imperial city, this expense is not something that everyone can afford.

"But if you buy everything like this, what if someone else wants to buy it?"

"what?"

Tang Linger had never thought of this. She just felt sorry for the charcoal sellers, so she bought all the charcoal.

After Wen Liuli's reminder, it seemed that what she said was right. What if someone else wants to buy it and I have already bought it? Where can they buy it from?

"Mrs. Wang, have I gotten into trouble? What should I do?"

The more I thought about it, the more panicked I became. If someone were to freeze to death, I would really be guilty.

"Girl, don't you consider the consequences before doing anything?"

Tang Tianyu couldn't help but roll his eyes at her when he heard that. He had never expected that this girl could do such a shocking thing.

"When you return, sell all the extra charcoal in your Princess's Mansion and don't cause any more trouble."

"Oh."

Nodding, Tang Linger knew that what Tang Tianyu said made sense. If they didn't sell them, the people would probably face the problem of having no carbon to burn, and how cold the winter would be.

When she thought of this, Tang Linger felt a pang of sadness in her heart. She had good intentions, but she didn't expect to do something so bad.

In response to this, Tang Tianyu and Wen Liuli just shook their heads helplessly. What a stupid person with so much money.

However, the girl had good intentions and did not cause any major disaster, so they did not intend to blame her.

On the top of the mountain, the royal family sat there for a whole morning. During this time, people kept sending Tang Zhentian and Tang Zonglun the slightly better poems written by the students competing below, and everyone would appreciate them carefully. Generally speaking, it was not boring.

But among them, there were a few people who were so out of tune that they fell asleep while listening to the poems.

These people naturally include Wen Liuli, Tang Linger, and that silly Tang Tianxing.

They have never been interested in poetry or songs; being pretentious is not their character.

Moreover, their cultural knowledge is limited, and they cannot even understand some poems. They can only watch Kong Xueli and others nod and shake their heads, and give some pointers from time to time, which is very boring.

"Gulu~"

Near noon, a gurgling sound suddenly came from beside Wen Liuli. Looking towards the source of the sound, she saw Tang Linger touching her belly with a somewhat embarrassed look.

Is there nothing to eat on this mountain? Of course there is, but they are all offerings.

And because they had to offer sacrifices to the gods, they couldn't kill animals or eat game, and could only stare blankly as their stomachs growled.

The others didn't feel hungry for a while because of their martial arts practice, but it was not the case for Tang Ling'er. Her stomach had already started to protest.

Perhaps it was because her stomach was growling so loudly that even Tang Zongluan and Tang Zhentian, who were sitting at the top, couldn't help but turn their heads to look at her.

It's not even noon yet. Isn't it a little early for your stomach to be growling?

The team naturally brought food for this trip, but they were all meals, and no one could eat until it was time for dinner and the Emperor and Your Majesty asked for permission.

Just when Tang Ling'er noticed the strange looks around her and felt a little at a loss, a bright red apple was suddenly handed to her.

When Tang Linger saw the apple, her eyes suddenly lit up. She looked in the direction of the hand holding the apple, and saw Wen Liuli looking at her with a smile on his face, chewing something in his mouth.

"Wow! Sister Wang, you actually have food!"

Forcing herself to suppress the excitement in her heart, Tang Linger whispered to Wen Liuli.

He looked like a student in the classroom, whispering with his deskmate.

In response, Wen Liuli just smiled faintly, raised the apple in his hand, and motioned Tang Linger to take it.

Seeing this, Tang Linger understood what he meant. She took the apple and didn't even bother to wipe it. She just put it in her mouth and started to eat it.

On the other hand, Wen Liuli was looking at Tang Tianyu smugly at this moment, as if to say, you see, it's always right to be prepared.

As for Tang Zhentian and Tang Zongluan, they turned their heads away with selective blindness at this time, and secretly made a decision in their hearts that they would not take Tang Linger with them when they went out in the future.

Of course, this was just a small episode. Tang Linger and Wen Liuli's little actions did not attract many people's attention. Their eyes were still on the poems written by those students. They nodded and shook their heads from time to time. It can be seen that they were really appreciating them very seriously.

Perhaps it was because of Wen Liuli's previous four lines of Hengqu, no matter how well the students below wrote, they all felt that they were somewhat unsatisfactory.

This is probably what is meant by "no comparison, no harm".

However, Wen Liuli is not a student, and as a woman she cannot serve as an official in the court. Otherwise, these civil servants would probably want Wen Liuli to serve the court.

Seeing that it was already noon, everyone's stomach started to protest, but no one frowned. This was because today was the day to offer sacrifices to the heavens, and God hadn't enjoyed his meal yet, so how could us mortals eat first?

This damn rule is so annoying.

Fortunately, the competition below soon came to a conclusion, but the person who finally stood on the top of the mountain surprised Tang Tianyu and Wen Liuli.

"Ji Xian, a common man, comes to see His Majesty, the Supreme Emperor!"

That’s right, the champion of today’s competition is Ji Xian, a man from Qingcheng who had met Tang Tianyu once at the foot of the mountain.

Not only Tang Tianyu and Wen Liuli were surprised, Ji Xian also felt a little shocked after seeing Tang Tianyu and the others. It turned out that they were not students.

That location...

Noticing the positions where Tang Tianyu and the other man were sitting at the moment, and considering Tang Tianyu's characteristics, a name suddenly popped up in Ji Xian's mind.

Wu Wang Tang Tianyu! He is Wu Wang!

Isn't the girl next to him...

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. It was rumored that King Wu killed people without blinking an eye. Thinking of what Zhu Qi had done before at the foot of the mountain, Ji Xian couldn't help but take a breath.

If Tang Tianyu had suddenly attacked at that time, Zhu Qi would probably have been covered in blood.

"Are you Ji Xian?"

Seeing the young man kneeling below, Tang Zhentian and Tang Zonglun were both shocked. They didn't expect that the leader today would be such a young man.

Both of them had read the poems he wrote, and even Kong Xueli, who was standing next to him, praised them highly. It was amazing that such a young man could have such literary talent.

"Your Majesty, I am a commoner."

Taking his thoughts away from Tang Tianyu, Ji Xian replied indifferently.

"I have read your poems, they are well written, but I still have some questions for you."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

"What do you think of these five words in your poem: gentle, kind, respectful, frugal and modest?"
