Tan Ruonan knew that Ah Shen had reservations.
Ah Shen saw that Tan Ruonan was not as simple as a couple of times, so he stopped holding back.
"Princess, be careful."
Ah Shen made fierce moves, but failed to hit Tan Ruonan at all.
Ah Shen has many tricks and tricks but few practical tricks.
Tan Ruonan is different. She doesn't have any free lanes, and her attacks go right to the point, without giving you a chance to counterattack.
Moreover, Ah Shen's skills are wide open and wide, and Tan Ruonan is a master of close combat.
After a moment, Ah Shen couldn't resist anymore. When A Gen saw this, he shouted, "A Shen, I'll come."
Shanzi sat on the ground and watched enthusiastically. He didn't expect the princess to be so good at fighting.
There was no suspense and without much effort, Agen was defeated in succession.
"Agen, go down."
Shanzi stood up straight from the carp fight. This time the fight between the two lasted a little longer.
Shanzi, Ah Shen, and Ah Gen stepped aside and rubbed their aching arms, chest, and cheeks.
Tan Ruonan shook his head, "Are the palace guards as skilled as you?"
"Well, there are better ones than us."
Shanzi rubbed his red and swollen face.
"If someone punches you once, you can't stand it. If you punch them ten times, they'll be fine. Do you still have a chance of winning?"
The three of them lowered their heads and said nothing. Their whole bodies ached at the moment.
Shanzi had an idea, raised his head, and suddenly fell to his knees on the ground, bang bang bang, and kowtowed three times.
Then he said: "This slave will obey the princess' orders from now on and will never betray the princess. I beg the princess to accept this slave as her apprentice."
Upon hearing this, A Shen and A Gen followed Shan Zi's example, kowtowed and became their disciples.
Seeing that his goal was achieved, Tan Ruonan raised the corner of his mouth and said, "You don't need to be a disciple, I can teach you. What I want is loyalty, can you do it?"
The three of them replied in unison, "I must be loyal to the princess and listen to the princess's instructions."
They didn't dare to betray Tan Ruonan, who was a good person and pretended to be stupid.
"Well, that's good, get up! Remember, I'm still the stupid princess of Shangshu Mansion."
"Yes, Princess."
Sitting in the car returning to the city, Tan Ruonan was in a good mood. She was short of manpower, and it felt wonderful to have someone give her pillows when she felt sleepy.
Just as she was enjoying herself, she heard a noise outside the car.
"Gungun, you still want to stay in a hotel when you have no money. You think our store is a charity hall! If you don't go, I'll send you to see the official. You owe the store seven days' rent and still don't ask for it. Our boss is kind, so hurry up and get out." ! Don’t make the floor dirty.”
A man dressed as a store waiter yelled, and a man dressed as a scholar sat on the ground in embarrassment, with several books and a small baggage scattered beside him.
The waiter at the same store as the scholar said softly, "My mother will be back soon, and she will give you the rent money when she comes back."
"Huh," the waiter snorted coldly, "Lu Xiucai, I'm not looking down on you. The little money your mother earns is not enough for you two to eat. How can you afford to stay in a hotel? I would like to remind you that you two still have to look for money." It’s better to live for free.”
Lu Xiucai prayed: "Please don't drive us away. We don't want to owe the rent, but our wallet was stolen on the way to the capital. Please."
Tan Ruonan hated asking for help. The seven-foot-tall man had no hands or feet.
Lu Xiucai's mother went to make money, so what was Lu Xiucai doing? Why doesn't he go.
This shop is called Donglai Inn, and he was kicked out by the waiter, which means that he has been at the inn just now.
Just when the people were watching the excitement, a pleasant voice came to everyone's ears.
"Your mother went to make money, what are you doing!"
Tan Ruonan was sitting in the carriage. The curtain of the carriage was not opened, which did not affect her questioning.
The people around watching the excitement were silent, and even the waiter at the shop was listening with bated breath.
The carriage is so luxurious, and the people in the capital know that they can't afford to mess with the people in the carriage, you can tell by listening to her talk.
Seeing that Lu Xiucai had not said a word for a long time, Shanzi shouted angrily: "My wife is asking you a question! Your mother is making money, what are you doing! Why don't you make money?"
Lu Xiucai was at a loss for words, and said calmly: "I am studying and preparing for the scientific examination."
"Scientific examination? Didn't this year's scientific examination end for more than a month? Are you waiting for the scientific examination in three years?"
If it weren't for what Shanzi said, Tan Ruonan would really not know about the scientific examination.
"me……"
Being humiliated in public, Lu Xiucai's face turned blue and white.
"What are you doing? You rely on your mother to support you, right?" Tan Ruonan's voice was cold, not giving Lu Xiucai any face.
"I want to take the imperial examination and study. My mother is having a hard time now. When I pass the imperial examination, won't my mother enjoy the blessings?" Lu Xiucai said confidently.
"ha……"
These words made Tan Ruonan laugh, "Oh! I don't see that you are really a filial son. What if you fail to pass the exam in this life! Will you have to rely on your mother to support you?"
Testing for fame depends not only on strength, but also on luck.
How many people think they have a lot of knowledge, but after taking the exam for many years they are still in vain.
Lu Xiucai was stunned. He had not considered this issue.
He is confident that he is talented. Now that his daily life is a problem, why should he take the scientific examination?
Tan Ruonan's tone was cold.
"Since you are a scholar, you should be able to write the word "filial piety"! You have read all your books to your stomach. Is there a conflict between studying and making money? Without your mother making money, you will not eat. They say that scholars read books by sages. Don't discredit the word sage. If you leave, you will be angry just by looking at him."
The word "gone" was of course directed at Shanzi and the others.
After a while, Shanzi came back to his senses and said, "Oh, oh, let's go. Come on."
The carriage slowly left.
There was an old woman in the crowd looking in the direction the carriage was leaving and thinking deeply.
I don't know whose wife it is, but her voice sounds like she has a straightforward personality. If she didn't care about her face, she would probably be scolded as well.
She always thought that if her son could read more, it would be okay for her to do more, but it seemed that she was wrong.
Aunt Lu looked at Lu Xiucai who was still dazed and sighed.
"Let's go! The money I earn is only enough for food. Let's find a dilapidated temple outside the city to stay."
"Oh, mother, I'm sorry." Lu Xiucai lowered his head in shame.
The lady in the car was right, he couldn't leave all the burden to his mother alone.
He quickly picked up the books and a small bundle on the ground, and helped Aunt Lu to walk out of the city.
Lu Xiucai looked back at the leaving carriage from time to time.
I don’t know who is in the carriage, but the voice is really nice.
"Princess." Shanzi was about to say something but was interrupted by Tan Ruonan.
"Call the lady when you go out later."
Shanzi called her madam just now, but she still felt uncomfortable.
"Yes." Shanzi quickly corrected himself and asked, "I just heard the young lady scolding that Lu Xiucai, which really relieved me."
Ah Shen: "That's right, a poor person has nothing to eat, but he holds this book as if he can have enough to eat."
