Chapter 533 Shen Yuezhang’s paintings
The Queen Mother was greatly shocked, "How could someone from a farmer's background have such foresight?"
Everyone knows that a tree that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind, but no one can control the desire to climb up. The higher you climb, the worse you will fall. The Shen family is hidden in Shenjiazhuang, keeping silent. You can make money without any scruples without being envied by others, and the villagers will also spontaneously protect the Shen family, wonderful!
Murong Jue smiled and continued: "Miss Shen has learned all about Mrs. Shen's true biography. Not only is her poetry, calligraphy and painting excellent, but her business skills are also excellent."
The eldest princess of Huai'an asked Hu Bo to get the portrait that Shen Yuezhang painted for her.
When the scroll was unfolded, the Queen Mother was shocked and stood up with excitement. Princess Qingkang was shocked and angry, and couldn't help but mock, "Your Highness, you don't have to go to such trouble to promote the Shen family member. How can such paintings be painted by ordinary women in the boudoir?”
The imperial capital is not without talented women. The so-called talented women are those who can memorize some poems, write good calligraphy, draw some paintings, play some music, and have good manners and education. As long as they can do these, they can get the title of talented woman.
Which girl who has the reputation of being a talented woman is not married high?
This painting was obviously done by everyone. It is absolutely impossible for a boudoir woman to have such ability!
"What kind of paintings can't ordinary women do?" The emperor and the queen came in together, followed by the sixth prince Murong Chen's concubine Shen Tian.
Everyone quickly saluted.
Murong Chen and Shen Tian also came forward to greet the Queen Mother and Princess Huai'an.
The Queen Mother said excitedly: "Emperor and empress, look at this portrait of Huai'an. It is just like the real thing. The Ai family has never seen such a vivid portrait."
The emperor and empress were stunned after just one glance. They all looked at Princess Huai'an and then took another look at the portrait.
I was amazed again and again, "Which master did the eldest princess find to paint this?"
The queen looked very excited.
The emperor was also very interested.
The eldest princess of Huai'an stood up and gave the blessing gift, "Go back to the queen, this is a painting by my unmarried daughter-in-law. If the child hadn't come to the imperial capital, I would be reluctant to take this painting out."
"Miss Shen?"
The emperor and his wife looked at each other, but they did not suspect that Princess Huai'an was telling lies, but they suddenly realized.
"I was puzzled before by the fact that you arranged this marriage for Ah Jue, but now I can understand. This girl is simply a painting prodigy!" The queen could not hide her admiration and regret in her eyes.
What I admire is Shen Yuezhang's talent, but what I regret is that Shen Yuezhang is a woman.
If he were a man, he would definitely be able to accomplish great things.
Seeing that the Queen spoke so highly of Shen Yuezhang, Princess Qingkang said angrily, "Queen, don't you think it's strange? No one in the imperial capital can paint such a picture. How could a boudoir girl from a small place have such a look?" Painting skills? ”
Unless you are a genius, you have to worship a master to learn painting. If you study on your own, you will die without learning anything.
Shen Tian nodded towards Princess Qingkang and said crisply: "Just because you haven't met Princess Qingkang doesn't mean you haven't met her. Miss Shen has had many gentlemen since she was a child. Lord Youkang and Lord Tian Ziyan are all her husbands. These two are famous painting masters in Langya country. She has learned a lot and has the expertise of hundreds of schools. She is not your ordinary boudoir girl."
Princess Qingkang was embarrassed by Shen Tian, a junior, and her face became increasingly ugly, but she did not dare to argue with her.
The more the queen listened, the more curious she became. She turned back with a smile and said to Princess Huai'an: "When will you bring her into the palace for us to see?"
The eldest princess of Huai'an wanted to refuse, but when she saw that the Queen Mother was also looking forward to it, she lowered her eyes and said, "Tomorrow."
The Queen Mother and the Empress were very satisfied with this answer.
The emperor looked at the portrait a few more times before taking Murong Jue to the imperial study to talk. Everyone chatted with the Queen Mother for a while and then left.
Princess Qingkang's face turned completely dark when she walked out of the palace. She started to get angry when she got on the carriage, "It's useless. You don't know how to grasp the good opportunities in front of you. Just like your father, you can't hold up the wall!"

Zhao Moli was trained until she burst into tears and became even more timid.
Princess Qingkang was annoyed to see her like this.
When he returned to Zhao's house, he drove Zhao Moli back to the second room.
After receiving the news, Mrs. Zhao hurried to Zhao Moli's boudoir, "How is it? What did the Queen Mother say?"
Zhao Moli raised her head, already crying uncontrollably, "Mom! My daughter is useless, I have shamed you!"
Mrs. Zhao Er's heart tightened and she quickly hugged Zhao Moli into her arms, "What happened? Did you do something wrong?"
Zhao Moli cried and shook her head, "Mom, the Queen Mother and the eldest princess of Huai'an don't like me at all, and the eldest daughter-in-law of Huai'an has long been determined to be the eldest daughter of the Shen family. The eldest uncle obviously knew about it, but didn't tell us. .
My daughter was humiliated by the eldest princess of Huai'an in the palace today. The queen mother was angry with the eldest uncle and ignored me. On the way back, the eldest uncle even scolded her for being useless and blamed her for not seizing the opportunity.
How to seize this kind of opportunity? My daughter also needs face! My daughter doesn’t want to live anymore, wuwuwu”

Mrs. Zhao Er was heartbroken when she heard this, and the mother and daughter hugged each other and cried.
When Zhao Qingxuan came back, he happened to see his wife and daughter's eyes red and swollen from crying, and learned what happened.
He was very angry and planned to go to Dafang to ask for an explanation.
Mrs. Zhao hurriedly stopped her, "What will happen if you go? Sister-in-law, as long as you say that you are looking for a future for our second wife, you will have nothing to say. If you talk too much, you will make father angry. Master, we have been in the imperial capital for so many years. There’s no benefit to be gained, why don’t you let it go?
We all left the imperial capital with you. It will be easier to achieve results and feel more comfortable outside. ”
Behind Princess Qingkang are royal dignitaries. Even if she really uses their second wife, they will have to admit it, but they can't afford to offend her and can afford to hide, as long as she stays far away.
After Zhao Qingxuan calmed down, he also felt that Mrs. Zhao was right.
More importantly, he believed that his father put all his efforts into his eldest brother, and these brothers did not have much weight in his father's eyes. In this case, he did not need to stay in the imperial capital to waste time.
So Zhao Qingxuan made a bold decision. He bypassed Taifu Zhao and took the initiative to submit a petition for assignment to the Ministry of Personnel.
Zhao Qingxuan has been sitting in this position for a long time, and he should have moved a long time ago. However, because of Taifu Zhao, the Minister of Staff has always turned a blind eye. Now that someone takes the initiative to speak, he must approve it immediately.
In a matter of half a day, Zhao Qingxuan's dispatch was a foregone conclusion.
Taifu Zhao still found out about this from his colleagues. After returning home angrily, he called Zhao Qingxuan to the study and scolded him for a long time.
"Why didn't you discuss such a big matter with me in advance? Do you still think of me as your father?"
The courtiers who supported the second prince were squeezed out this time. He was still trying to win over the officials. Unexpectedly, he failed to win over many people and was stabbed in the back by his own son first.
You must know how popular the official positions in the imperial capital are. Even if it is an official position of eighth or ninth grade, there are a lot of people fighting for it.
Zhao Qingxuan occupies a sixth-grade official position, has nothing to do, and receives his salary. He doesn't know how to cherish such a good job, so he just gives it up behind his back!
