Chapter 17: Juan Wang Criteria 2: Follow others' path, let others go to a dead end
This stormy reprimand lasted for half an hour before it ended.
Only then did the beautiful ladies have a chance to speak, and they explained in a very aggrieved manner: "Mommy, please calm down. Aunt etiquette taught us the rules of entering the palace. We dare not forget it for a moment, but we really have no choice..."
The corners of Lihua's eyes twitched. Seeing that it was about to end, how could someone be so stupid to pretend to be wronged and defend themselves at this time? It would be great to just go down the steps honestly. You have to pretend, tsk...
The nuns have made enough gestures to serve the Queen Mother, but they can only scold them, and they cannot really drive all the beautiful ladies out of the palace.
Hey, now grandma can't lift it up high and put it down gently, she must be punished.
Fortunately, she had practiced zama step, otherwise her legs would have been numb even when standing.
Aunt Li was also very upset. After she was scolded, some people still wanted to make excuses. They didn't give any color to show how casual they were at home!
She sternly rebuked: "It's not just! No matter how many reasons you have, they don't hold up in my eyes. Since you don't dare to forget the rules and etiquette of preaching, let me see what you can do. If you can't do it well,
Don't blame me for punishing you."
After saying this, he asked the palace maids to put on the rulers. Ten neat rulers were held in the tray by the palace maids and spread out in a row, which was very eye-catching.
In the background of other beautiful ladies, the way Grandma Li looked at Lihua became much gentler, no longer as cold as at the beginning.
The whole place was silent, and the show girls did not dare to say anything anymore, but their dissatisfaction with Lihua became deeper and deeper.
Lihua was not afraid of hostility. She thought clearly that when her grandma took her out for a walk, it was no longer possible for her to coexist peacefully with most people.
What's more, they were competitors in the first place. The original owner was so badly bullied, and none of these people did anything to help him other than adding insult to injury.
To expect to be on good terms with them is to seek death.
Lihua believes that the weak will only be trampled on, the strong have friends everywhere, and the strongest king needs no friends.
From ancient times to the present, the supreme being in the world is the solitary man. This is the reason.
At this moment, Aunt Li didn't care what Xiu Nu thought, and directly announced: "You have only learned the etiquette in the palace for a short time, and I will not embarrass you, so I will take a test on the etiquette of walking, sitting and standing. Who comes first?"
!”
There will always be people who can't do it, and when the time comes, kill them as a warning to others.
The show girls looked at each other, you looked at me, I looked at you, they didn't want to be the first to come.
For the past fifteen days, I have been under strict supervision by the etiquette nuns, and I have been taught a lot of lessons. This set of etiquette is basic, and I can still complete it.
But no one knows what the criteria for passing the test are for Aunt Li and what is waiting for them ahead.
Therefore, the first person to come suffers the most, and no one wants to be the first to show off.
After a while, when no one said anything, Grandma Li became even more stern. When she was about to take the exam in order, someone stood up.
Li Ruoyi came out first and saluted: "Mommy, if you are not talented in appearance, I will come first."
Aunt Li applauded in her heart, thinking that Miss Li, whom the Queen Mother valued, was a responsible person.
In this election, the Queen Mother is trying to select people the Emperor might like. Miss Li, a model of etiquette, has long been on the Queen Mother's list and has become a key subject of observation.
As for Lihua, because she was too low-key in the capital during those three years, she was just a make-up in the eyes of the Queen Mother, and was used by the Emperor to balance the relationship between courtiers, so no one in the palace paid much attention to her.
And Grandma Li was gentle to her just because she was well-behaved, and she didn't have any expectations for her.
At this moment, Aunt Li happily agreed to Li Ruoyi: "Okay, I'll do as you say!"
The show girls all breathed a sigh of relief, but after a while, they felt worried again.
Li Ruoyi will definitely be fine, but with her setting the standard high, what will happen to the next person?
Li Ruoyi thanked Aunt Li, her gaze passed over the pear blossoms in front of her with some unclear meaning, and she was about to say something.
Lihua's eyes lit up. She had been paying attention to this person who was related to her life and death. From then until now, Li Ruoyi glanced at her four times.
The first look is the surprise and displeasure at the first meeting, the second look is the instinctive anger after being reprimanded, the third look is the anger after the pear blossom gets angry, and the fourth look is the present.
And this fourth look is exactly the look that wants to stir up trouble. This is what she wants!
Lihua reacted very quickly, and in an instant she thought about all the twists and turns in Huahua's intestines.
With a flash of inspiration, she spoke first, saluting and saying:
"Aunt Li, I have learned something from Aunt Sun for fifteen days. I can't bear the punishment of all the sisters today. I have a suggestion. Why don't I compete with this sister? If I win, sisters
How about we forget about being late? If I lose, I can be punished together with the other sisters."
The manner is calm and unhurried, and the demeanor is confident and generous.
The scene immediately fell silent!
Li Ruoyi opened her mouth slightly in shock.
The expressions on the other show girls' faces were full of excitement, and for a moment they couldn't tell whether Lihua wanted to help them or harm them.
After all, who among the ladies in Beijing can beat Li Ruoyi in terms of etiquette?!
Zhou Yuzhen, who was at the front of the queue, looked particularly wonderful. She was completely shocked and felt that it was extremely ridiculous.
Does Wu Li want to compete with Li Ruoyi on etiquette?
Do you still want to win after hearing that tone??
Was she hallucinating???
How can someone say such arrogant words!!!
Also, if they lost and were punished together, who asked her to decide for them?!!
Zhou Yuzhen was shocked to the point of being struck by thunder. After she came to her senses, she cursed fiercely in her heart.
If she could escape punishment on her own and count on Wu Li, then no one else would be able to escape punishment. Wu Li must have tricked them on purpose!
Still the same as before, stupider than a pig!
Zhou Yuzhen kept scolding Lihua in her heart. If the situation wasn't right, she would probably strangle Lihua to death.
Li Ruoyi realized that she had lost her composure, and quickly adjusted her facial expression, trying her best to look unfazed, but her heart was in turmoil.
Ever since she became famous in Beijing, no one has dared to compete with her in terms of etiquette.
I really didn’t expect that Lihua, a little-known person who was even rumored to have a bad reputation, would dare to stand up and compete with her!
Moreover, Lihua's suggestion was originally what she wanted to say, but conversely, what she wanted to say was that if she defeated Wuli, she would ask Aunt Li to spare the sisters.
This move kills three birds with one stone!
As soon as she can show her generosity in front of everyone, she will sell well before entering the palace;
Secondly, she had heard from Zhou Yuzhen that Wu Li was vulgar and had often bullied Zhou Yuzhen in the past. This time she took the opportunity to make Wu Li look embarrassed and vent his anger on Zhou Yuzhen's behalf.
Thirdly, she didn't like Wu Li at first sight. All the show girls came in a bit embarrassed and were scolded by the nanny, but Wu Li didn't do anything at all. She stood there calmly and accepted everything.
It attracted people's attention and was praised in public.
She couldn't stand this, because as long as she was there, no one could steal her spotlight.
But Wu Li was so vulgar and did not deserve to end her life in person. It was not until Li Hua's anger affected everyone that she changed her mind and wanted to trample Li Hua under her feet and humiliate her severely.
Li Ruoyi's thoughts kept changing, and her eyes looked at Lihua with a cold light.
Since someone wants to be humiliated, let’s help her!
only……
Li Ruoyi frowned, realizing that the current situation was extremely difficult. This chapter has been completed!
