Chapter 65 Framing

Jiang Xuening is not foolish. He must have a tolerance for teasing others, let alone facing Xie Wei? Although she felt that this person's attitude towards her was different from what she had imagined, she did not dare to take too much advantage of it, after all, she did not know where Xie Wei's degree was.

He obediently agreed and dared not say anything again.

Xie Wei really didn't argue with her, just walked ahead of her calmly and returned to the Fengchen Hall.

Three days ago, everyone watched as Jiang Xuening's foolish and stubborn learning of the piano angered Xie Wei and he was detained. Now, seeing her with a low eyebrow and pleasing eyes, she followed Xie Wei back, feeling inexplicably comfortable like eating ice in the dog days.

How proud is she when she is arrogant and domineering?

With Yan Lin guarding and Princess Chang guarding, it's hard to resist the fact that Mr. Xie is the imperial teacher of the current dynasty, and even Princess Chang dare not offend him. No matter how powerful Jiang Xuening is, whether he can't play the piano well or not, is he still being subdued by Master Xie?

Even Princess Leyang couldn't help but feel a hint of guilty sympathy when she saw it: she knew that Mr. Xie was a rigorous person in academic studies, and it was impossible to be lenient towards anyone. Ning Ning was being held by him to study the piano alone, and she didn't know how hard Mr. Xie would treat her. How miserable she would be.

But she is powerless to do anything about it.

At this moment, I was thinking to myself: It's okay, it's okay. I'll treat Ning Ning better in the future and make up for it!

Jiang Xuening walked in from outside holding a qin, not knowing what these people were thinking at first.

But when Xie Wei heard her play the piano and immediately told her to stop, sit aside and not play again, she scanned the expressions of the people around her and suddenly understood something. These people all thought she was doing very poorly on Xie Wei's side?

Until the end of school, she didn't dare to touch the piano again.

At the end, Xie Wei walked past her and glanced down at her from her old residence. He had no way of being calm and patient in the side hall, and said coldly, "To learn the piano, you need to quit impatience, be calm, and practice diligently. You don't have any of these three things. From tomorrow on, you will go to the side hall every day to practice the piano. If you don't learn well, don't stay."

Jiang Xuening was stunned.

How could Xie Wei change his face faster than flipping through a book?

She had an inexplicable impulse to stand up on the table, but when she looked up, she met Xie Wei's smiling eyes and was momentarily stunned, without realizing it. But Xie Wei left these words and didn't say anything anymore. He went straight out of the hall holding the qin.

Seeing the person leave, other people in the hall were discussing it one after another.

Princess Leyang walked up to Jiang Xuening in indignation and said, "Mr. Xie's demands are too strict! How could he say that to you?"

Zhou Baoying also nodded with her cheeks bulging and said, "Yes, Sister Ning is really pitiful. When we first learned the piano, we never knew how to do it. Mr. Xie is so unreasonable..."

Even Yao Rongrong's expression as she looked at her showed some sympathy.

As for You Yue, Chen Shuyi, and others, although still malicious and somewhat sarcastic, when looking at Jiang Xuening, they no longer had the feeling of envy piercing through their eyes and flesh.

They seem to have found a sense of superiority in this matter.

So occasionally, there was a sense of aloofness and even a hint of hypocritical sympathy in her gaze, and there were many things that she didn't avoid speaking. Instead, she spoke in a roundabout manner in front of her, as if she had put the previously hidden things on the surface.

It lasted for a few days like this.

Jiang Xuening found that although she was occasionally stabbed by others and still had unresolved conflicts with a few of them, she was pitied by the others and was able to blend into the crowd in a strange situation.

So she suddenly learned.

Ginger is old and spicy.

The fox is still cunning with the surname Xie.

Taking a step back makes people think that she is in a miserable situation. Although hatred cannot be eliminated, it can make those who were originally hostile towards her relax their vigilance, and even make those who were originally biased towards neutrality approach her because of sympathy.

Undoubtedly, it is material for future rebellion

People play with applause without showing any trace.

So on this day, sitting across from the tea table, drinking the tea brewed by Xie Wei herself, Jiang Xuening felt that she had actually been living a comfortable life with Xie Wei, so it was better not to tell them.

Yan Lin indulged her, but Shen Zhiyi favored her.

These two people are certainly good to her, but they easily push her to the forefront of the storm; Xie Weiming openly suppressed her, scolded her harshly, and treated her poorly, but instead resolved the hostility of others towards her.

That day, Zhang Zhong, the chief editor of the National History Museum, never appeared in the Fengchen Hall again.

Listening to the discussion among the eunuchs, they said they had returned to their hometowns.

The teacher of the Book of Rites was replaced by a new master surnamed Chen, who was called "Chen Chou". He taught them books in a proper manner, neither flattering nor deceiving the lower class. Zhang Zhong served as a warning to them and was particularly patient, answering any questions and resolving any doubts.

As for Mr. Zhao Yanhong, who taught the Book of Songs and always praised Xiao Shu, he also fell ill in just two days.

The reason was that he left homework and asked them to write a five character poem to see.

After school, Jiang Xuening went to Xie Wei's place to learn the piano. As usual, she was restless and was called by Xie Wei to sit by the piano. In a daze, she couldn't help but worry about the five character poem.

Xie Wei asked her what she was worried about.

She said about learning poetry, and said: "Mr. Zhao's knowledge is certainly good, but no one else's learning is good. Although I don't like Chen Shuyi, her poetry may not be inferior to Xiao Shu in writing. Mr. Zhao seems to think Xiao Shu is superior. His Highness Princess Royal Highness Princess is second, and others are just wild flowers and weeds. I can only read some articles, and even if I don't like playing the piano, I can't write poetry. Mr. Zhao already looks down on me, so if I force myself to write it, I'm afraid I'll have to laugh and be generous again... "

Xie Wei glanced at her but didn't speak.

Jiang Xuening then woke up and said, "I'm not making a small report, nor am I going to give Mr. Zhao eye medicine. Didn't you ask this yourself, sir?"

Xie Wei laughed inexplicably.

He was just using a planer to scrape the piece of beech wood that had been picked out to make a piano, but after laughing, he put down both the wood and the planer. After a moment of contemplation, he walked over to pick up the paperweight from the desk and flipped through the several pages of Chengxin Tang paper that were originally covered by the paperweight. He took one and looked at it for a moment before handing it to Jiang Xuening, saying, "Take these few sentences, copy them, and only say that you wrote them yourself. It will depend on what Mr. Zhao says."

Taking the page of Chengxin Tang paper and seeing the four lines of poetry on it, Jiang Xuening's mind only remembered the four words that You Fangyin mentioned when joking with her in the previous life: fishing law enforcement.

Of course, she dared not say this to Xie Wei.

Not to mention that Xie Wei may not necessarily know.

I accepted this poem in a proper manner, and in a few days of class, I took it to pit Zhao Yanhong.

Zhao Yanhong, who was unaware of the unfortunate situation of Zhang Zhong, the chief editor of the National History Museum, glanced at the poem transcribed by Jiang Xuening and said, "What's the use of rhyme alone? It's just nonsense. Especially the phrase 'I don't distinguish flowers in an empty mountain' doesn't make sense, and in the blink of an eye, it's like 'a courtyard is dark'. It's really off topic. There are months, mountains, flowers, clouds, and winds, but it's also not mainstream!"

At that moment, Jiang Xuening sympathized with him.

Because Xie Wei taught the piano, he was right behind him. That day came quite early and he sat in the corner of the main hall drinking tea. Just as he heard these words, he looked quite surprised and suddenly said, "Mr. Zhao, can Xie take a look at this poem?"

The poem is written as follows:

The night moon is as bright as jade, and the empty mountains do not distinguish flowers;

Clouds come in a dark courtyard, and the wind blows away with a hundred branches slanting.

Xie Wei looked and remained silent.

===Kunning Section 81===

Zhao Yanhong didn't even know he was in trouble and asked, "What do Mr. Xie think?"

Xie Wei returned the manuscript of the poem with a strange expression: "I didn't know this poem wasn't in the mainstream, it was so bad."

Zhao Yanhong finally realized that the tone was a bit off and added a bit of unease, "What do you mean?"

"Oh." Xie Wei, with a nonchalant expression, hooked his slender index finger and lightly rested it on his straight nose bridge, apologizing with a smile. "Mr. Zhao, you must laugh. This poem is just a play from the past, fabricated haphazardly and cannot be put on stage. How dare you criticize it recklessly?"

Zhao Yanhong was already foolish at that time.

Xie Wei acted really well, and as soon as he pulled his face, he glanced at Jiang Xuening and said, "I think it was when Miss Ning Er was learning the piano with me in the side hall. Did she just 'borrow' it and leave?"

I didn't hear about Xie Wei afterwards.

I only heard people say that after Zhao Yanhong returned, he couldn't eat enough and couldn't sleep well. He sighed at the lamp at night and felt dazed during the day when he saw someone. The next day, he resigned from his position as the head of the school and didn't dare to become the princess. He also transferred himself to another position, but didn't find a suitable vacancy. As a fifth grade Hanlin Academy attendant, he only found a sixth grade idle Chaofenglang, and he was particularly fortunate.

Jiang Xuening thought things had just passed.

Unexpectedly, I heard discussions from Yao Xi, Chen Shuyi, and others early this morning, saying that the emperor was investigating this matter and got angry. One Zhang Zhong and one Zhao Yanhong were involved in a series of party affiliations, and many people were dismissed from their positions, including the former academician in charge of the Hanlin Academy. However, Xie Wei was appointed as the new academician in charge of the Hanlin Academy to clean up the corrupt practices.

Everyone's gratitude to Mr. is becoming increasingly prominent.

Jiang Xuening, however, felt that this matter was all part of Xie Wei's plan from beginning to end. Even the small matter of teaching the gentlemen at the Fengchen Hall could be used to make articles, and it should not be underestimated as it would take a step up the court.

Xie Wei sat at the end of the tea table and waited for the boiling water to soak in the pot for a moment before pouring it into the tea sea. He then uncovered the tea and smelled the fragrance on the lid. Looking up, he saw her wandering around the world and said calmly, "I've been asking you to calm down these days. You haven't learned any tricks yet, and your ability to daydream and wander at any time has become more and more profound. Even now, I have some doubts. Miss Ning Er may not have hidden any gold or jade in this group of losers. What are you thinking?"

Jiang Xuening finally regained consciousness.

She felt that sitting quietly in the main hall for an hour every day these days, and sitting quietly in the side hall for an hour. Originally, she couldn't hold back her restlessness, but now that she can sit down, she begins to wander beyond the sky, which is a significant progress.

But I dare not talk back to Xie Wei.

She murmured, "Mr. Xie has been promoted to a higher position and has become a bachelor's degree in charge. He is even more impressive than my father. The students are happy for you."

These days, her mouth has been unusually sweet.

But for Xie Wei, this matter is not as simple as it appears.

The gentlemen who gave lectures to Princess Leyang in the Fengchen Hall to clean the Hanlin Academy were forced by the situation. Even if they did it without any trace, it was inevitable that those with intentions would feel that he was cunning and eager for quick success.

It is a last resort.

If he had time, he could have done it more discreetly, but the investigation of the Yu Ruyi case became increasingly tight, and a bloody storm would soon come. If he didn't hold some real power, how could he know he wouldn't lose control of the whole situation?

Xie Wei didn't explain, only lowered his eyes and said, "There are regulations for the use of paper in the palace, and there are some taboos. The papers sent by your internal affairs office are all ice wing paper and white deer paper. The page I gave you a few days ago was the paper stored in the Chengxin Hall of the palace. Remember to bring it back to my place tomorrow to avoid causing trouble."

He needs to pay attention to such small details, and is not afraid to worry too much about going bald in the future?

However, Jiang Xuening also knew that every word and action in the palace must be cautious, and that gossip belongs to gossip. However, this matter was recorded in her heart.

After drinking tea, a young eunuch outside came to deliver the residence newspaper to Xie Wei.

She saw that the eunuch seemed to have something to say, so she bowed and bid farewell to Xie Wei, coming out of the side hall.

When looking back at Zhizhai, I saw several eunuchs with their mouths stuffed dragging by the direction of the inner palace, each injured and on the brink of death. At first glance, it was clear that they had been tortured and I didn't know how to deal with them.

Jiang Xuening dared not look anymore and buried her head as she walked under the palace wall.

The aura of impending mountain rain suddenly enveloped the entire palace.

But she thinks that all the accompanying students in Zhizhai have nothing to do with the Ruyi case.

Who knew it was that night, while everyone was sitting in the Flowing Water Pavilion studying, a eunuch holding a brush with a cold face, unexpectedly led a large group of people into the Yangzhi Studio and waved his hand, saying, "Please search our house carefully!"

Most of the accompanying readers had never seen such a terrifying scene before, and were momentarily panicked.

Jiang Xuening was also extremely surprised.

She doesn't remember when someone came to search Yang Zhizhai during the Ruyi case in her previous life.

Xiao Shu remained calm, or perhaps because her aunt was the Empress Dowager, she had extra confidence and only asked the eunuch, "I dare to ask my father-in-law, what's going on here, and what are we searching for?"

That eunuch is Wang Quan, the newly appointed eunuch in charge of the inner palace.

He paid tribute to Xiao Shu and smiled, saying, "I believe all the accompanying readers have heard the news. A few days ago, someone in the Ministry of Internal Affairs dared to carve rebellious words on the jade Ruyi presented to the Empress Dowager, which angered the Holy Emperor. In recent days, they have been investigating and clearing many people.". But I don't know what kind of filth and filth are hidden in the palace. This Yangzhi Zhai is also a residence in the palace. Our family, according to the emperor's orders and the Empress Dowager's orders, will conduct a routine search. Please don't panic

Although he said so, the group of people he brought with him did not show any courtesy during the search.

Bottles, jars, and jars are all upside down.

Every book and text should be read one by one.

Jiang Xuening's eyelids twitched as she looked at this posture, and suddenly remembered that the page of Chengxin Tang paper was still pressed in the box by her, which made her feel a bit worried.

In no time, everyone's rooms were searched.

Most of them are reported without any problem.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, saying that it was just a routine search for this case.

But just as they had just calmed down, a search eunuch hurriedly walked down the corridor, holding a page of paper in his hand, handed it to Wang Quan, and then whispered something in his ear.

Wang Quan saw what was written on the page and exclaimed, "Wow!"

He looked up at the crowd and only asked, "Which one is the daughter of Jiang Shilang's mansion?"

Everyone's gaze instantly fell on Jiang Xuening.

After a distance, Jiang Xuening couldn't see clearly what the eunuch was holding. She thought it was the page of Chengxin Hall paper that Xie Wei had given her earlier, so she couldn't avoid what was supposed to come, afraid of having to put in some effort to explain.

So he stood up and replied, "I am."

Wang Quan looked at her up and down and sneered, "You're so brave! You dare to take action! Someone, catch this chaotic party for our family!"

Chaotic party?!

Jiang Xuening's pupils shrank sharply, and she didn't react for a moment. She had already been pressed and twisted by the eunuchs on both sides.

She couldn't believe it: "My father-in-law spewed blood, how could my daughter become a chaotic party!"

Wang Quan only flipped the page towards her.

Where is Xie Wei's page of Chengxin Hall paper?

It is a page of white deer paper that is most common in the palace, with two lines written on it with a pen: Three hundred righteous children, why should we die tragically? Emperor Yong has no virtue, dare to be called the emperor!

At this moment, Jiang Xuening was covered in cold.

In Yangzhi Zhai, there are countless figures and bright lights.

She turned her face and looked at the other people who had been accompanying her in the past and now also standing here. She felt that the lanterns carried by the eunuchs who came to search were too dazzling, and when they shone on their faces, they were all blurry, making it difficult for her to see clearly.
