MARRIAGE OF THE DI DAUGHTER

Chapter 48 Part 1 - Relatives



Chapter 48 Part 1: Relatives

The relationship between Jiang Li and the female teachers of Mingyi Hall could be called good. Just this way, obviously showing that the relationship wasn’t good, was only Ji Luo.

The Rites and Ceremonies instructor Ji Luo formerly was the palace maid in the Empress Dowager’s palace. Afterwards, when Mingyi Hall was built, Ji Luo joined in to teach the noble ladies. Because she was ordered by the Empress Dowager, from the beginning she looked extremely arrogant.

Jiang Li knew Ji Luo, this person, valued a person’s virtue and etiquette the most. At that time, Ji Luo immediately came out to criticize Xue Fangfei with righteous indignation. Now, Jiang Li had such a bad reputation in the past. Ji Luo must have certainly felt unbearable that there’s a student like that among her students.

Not long after Ji Luo came in, she immediately began her lesson. Mingyi Hall’s《Yan Kingdom’s Rites》《Rites and Ceremonies》《Women’s Book》《Classic of Filial Piety》 and other books, Jiang Li had read them earlier, she even knew them by heart. However, the Liu Xu beside her was listening very seriously and looked very focused.

Midway through Ji Luo’s lesson, she would ask some students to get up and recite the previous assignments. She should be regarded as strict since the students were also afraid of her. During class, everyone was in accordance with the rules. However, from start to finish, Ji Luo never asked Jiang Li a word, not even so much as a glance towards Jiang Li.

Generally speaking, when there’s a new student studying at Mingyi Hall, the teachers would all specially say a few words to express their concern. However, Ji Luo looked as if she overlooked that there’s this person, Jiang Li, without the meaning of caring about her.

Jiang Li took it all in, not feeling that it was unexpected at all. Such a person who scrupulously abided by the rules, of course would be disgusted towards her presence. If Jiang Li wasn’t Jiang Yuanbai’s blood-related daughter, perhaps Ji Luo would have the idea of telling Jiang Li to rush back home. Ji Luo couldn’t treat Jiang Yuanbai’s daughter this way and could only ignore her.

Jiang You Yao also observed Ji Luo’s conduct and her mood improved a lot. No matter how cunning Jiang Li was, also incapable of altering the previous ‘harming mother and murdering younger brother’ reputation. In the end, the people in Mingyi Hall did not welcome Jiang Li. Even if Jiang Li attended Mingyi Hall, she would only suffer.

At the end of the lesson, Ji Luo stood on the stage and spoke: “In ten days is this year’s examination. This year’s examination will be conducted at the same time as the Imperial College’s examination. Able to get a good rank in the examination, you can meet the Empress Dowager and be conferred a reward. For all of you, this is the greatest glory.” After pausing for a moment, she continued: “As for those who cannot reach the requirement, each part will be individually reported and be expelled.”

Suddenly the surroundings became noisy with discussions.

Unable to reach the requirement would be expelled from Mingyi Hall.

In fact, being expelled from Mingyi Hall was a small matter. After all, not everyone was talented. Those able to study at Mingyi Hall were all the young missed of the capital’s nobility. But in the case the matter of their examination did not reach the target and was expelled came out, it would indeed be really shameful and they would not be able to show their faces.

“Hope everyone will strive hard.” Ji Luo said this closing sentence drily and expressionlessly brought her books out of the hall.

After Ji Luo walked out, the study hall was immediately lively. Someone commented: “Really will be expelled from Mingyi Hall? Teacher Ji wouldn’t be messing with us right? My writing can be regarded as horrible.”

“My music makes other people have a headache.”

“It’s over, it’s over, if I cannot defend, what’s to be done?”

Within the racket, suddenly there’s a voice that was transmitted clearly: “What are you afraid of? Jiang second miss cannot do anything. A person who just entered Mingyi Hall is not afraid, then aren’t you afraid for nothing?”

That voice belonged precisely to Meng Hong Jin.
