Chapter 415 Rejection

She stood up and looked frightened: "I don't know how to be grateful to the princess for being favored by the princess. The Capital Girls' College is also a place I have always longed for. Due to the restriction of household registration, I was not able to take the entrance exam to the Capital Girls' College, so I missed the chance.

Ruxi deeply regrets being a student of the princess."

Hearing this, Xiao Yuyue showed a satisfied smile.

She knew that with Concubine Jin standing behind her, no one would dare to refuse no matter what she asked for.

But the smile on her face has not yet fully appeared, Zhao Ruxi added: "But my master is a master at Beining Girls' College. As his disciple, I naturally have to accompany him."

"In addition, the emperor ordered me to teach official painters from various places to paint portraits. In order not to increase unnecessary expenses for Dali Temple and local governments, the place where I learned painting was in Beining, opposite Beining Women's Academy. In terms of academic and

In the face of important court affairs, the court affairs are naturally the most important thing. So I have to stay in Beining almost all the time during the day. It is really not feasible in terms of time to study at the Beijing Women's College."

"I didn't have the opportunity to study under Master's teachings in a systematic way before. Now that I have the opportunity to sit in the academy and listen to Master's teachings, Ruxi cherishes this opportunity very much. In addition to teaching painting to officials from various places, Ruxi occasionally has time to

They would go back to the academy to attend lectures, or consult the masters privately. The fact that Ruxi achieved such meager results in the annual exam is not because Ruxi is smart, but because she seizes every opportunity to learn from the masters."

She bowed: "So although Ruxi sincerely hopes to study in Beijing Women's College, due to this kind of relationship, she can only miss it unfortunately. Fortunately, Beining Women's College is a subordinate college of Beijing Women's College. Studying in Beining

, can also listen to the teachings of the county bishop. Thinking of this, Ruxi has no regrets in her heart."

When the old lady and Mrs. Zhu heard Zhao Ruxi's words, their hearts lifted. They both looked at Xiao Yuyue in unison.

Both of them have been in the circle of ladies all their lives, and they know that the most important thing these people value is "face".

Although what Zhao Ruxi said was extremely sincere and her reasons were very sufficient, rejection was rejection. People like Princess Pingyang would never understand her difficulties and would only feel resentful because of her rejection.

Sure enough, Xiao Yuyue's expression changed.

Fortunately, although the smile on Xiao Yuyue's face disappeared, she seemed to endure it again and again, and finally did not get angry.

She said calmly: "I understand the situation you mentioned. It's not a big deal. Your master was originally the master of our Capital Women's College. All you need to do is let him come back. The gate of the Capital Women's College will always be open to the public.

He's open."

She squeezed out a smile: "As a disciple, you have to consider your master's health, right? He is almost seventy years old. He travels between Beijing and Beining every day, how can his body and bones bear the burden? Beijing Women's College is far away

Kang's house is not far away, wouldn't it be nice to save him the trouble of running around?"

"Besides, what you said about not having time to study in the capital is easy to handle. I've also learned about your situation. You rarely went to the academy, and you only went there for a day and a half every ten years. In this way, you usually study on your own.

, on the ten-day holiday, come back to the Capital Women’s Academy, and I will let the Master teach you alone.”

"The teachers at our Capital Women's College are all great Confucian scholars of our time. They are not comparable to the teachers in that small county town of Beining. With these teachers giving you some advice, I think your studies can go further. The two methods I mentioned can completely solve the problem.

Got your question. What do you think?"

Ever since Xiao Yuyue took care of the academy for Concubine Jin, except for those princesses, everyone else flattered her when they met her.

If it was her temper, when Zhao Ruxi refused just now, she would definitely throw away her hands and leave, and then use various means to rectify the Suiping residence and Zhao Ruxi.

So what if Zhao Ruxi is Kang Shilin's disciple? Apart from the little friendship with the emperor, what else does Kang Shilin have?

As for friendship with the emperor, who can compare with Concubine Jin?

But for the painting that sold for a high price of 25,000 taels of silver at the auction, no one else knew who the artist was, but they could not hide it from Concubine Jin, who was much favored by the emperor.

If that's all, that's fine. After all, Zhao Ruxi is Kang Shilin's apprentice. She should be good at painting.

Even if she is good at painting and has painted paintings of such high value, the fact that she won the first place in the painting competition at the end of the year is not the credit of Beining Women's College, but the credit of Kang Shilin. The students of their Beijing Women's College could not win the prize for their paintings.

Ranking, at least they can win the championship in other aspects such as piano, chess, calligraphy, etc. They are not inferior to Beining Girls' College at all.

But now, Zhao Ruxi is not only good at drawing, she also got first place in the annual exam. The students from the second-placed Capital Girls' College are not just a little worse than her, but far behind.

Concubine Jin couldn't help but care.

The masters in the Beijing Women's College are all great scholars in the capital, and they are not comparable to those in a small county like Beining. But the students they teach can't even catch up with a student from the Beining Women's College. This is called Concubine Jin and her reputation.

Where to put it? When the time comes, Princess Shangde will not know how to show off her power in front of Concubine Jin.

I can't bear it.

Therefore, after Concubine Jin heard her report, she asked her to go to Suiping Bo's Mansion and personally invite Zhao Ruxi, Corporal Li Xian.

Otherwise, she would not condescend and go to the Suiping Prefecture to personally recruit Zhao Ruxi. Which student from the Capital Women's College is not more distinguished and prestigious than Zhao Ruxi? Does she need to lower herself to invite him?

Now she doesn't really want Zhao Ruxi to go to Beijing Women's College to take classes, she just needs her to bear the title of "Jingcheng Women's College student".

If it weren't for this, she would have walked away long ago. Why would she lower her profile and negotiate terms with Zhao Ruxi in a nice voice?

Zhao Ruxi had long been mentally prepared to endure it for the time being and had to accept the invitation to study at the Capital Girls' College for the sake of the overall situation.

Seeing Xiao Yuyue like this, even though she came to visit her, she didn't have an attack for the time being. But her condescending attitude and threatening tone really made her feel unhappy.

She is not a person who can swallow her anger.

Now that she has not become a student of the Capital Women's Academy, Xiao Yuyue already has this attitude when asking for help from her. Once she agrees and makes Xiao Yuyue her husband, Xiao Yuyue will use the "teacher's"

In terms of reputation, I still don’t know how bad my attitude is and what excessive demands I’m making.

She refused Xiao Yuyue's request because she did not respect her teacher and put herself in a very passive situation.
