Chapter 29 His little princess is so pretty
Ji Zhengyan murmured: "Can't you find my name either?"

"I've checked it twice, and your name is definitely not there."

"On the day the results were announced, everyone said my name was not on the list, but I didn't believe it. I stood in front of the notice and read it two hundred times. I could almost memorize the names of all the new Jinshi that year. But among those names, mine was the only one not on the list."

The loquat tree that leaned over the wall cast a dark shadow on Ji Zhengyan's solemn and handsome face.

He hung his hands, looked frail and lonely, and his patched clothes fluttered in the night wind.

His voice was lighter and colder than the night wind: "I was not among the new Jinshi candidates that year."

Xiao Baojing opened his eyes wide: "So you died of depression?"

The small fish-shaped crown on Ji Zhengyan's hair bun flickered.

Xiao Baojing shuddered, fearing that he would go berserk like he did that night outside Yangcheng, so he quickly comforted him, "If you didn't pass, then you didn't pass. At worst, we can take the exam again. Three years later, you can be a brave man again! I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but I didn't perform well in the college entrance examination. I also plan to repeat a year and take the college entrance examination again!"

In fact, she did very well in the college entrance examination!
But in order to comfort Ji Zhengyan's weak heart, she decided to lie to him.

Ji Zhengyan ignored her comfort.

He pointed his finger again, firmly at a name on the big red notice, and said word by word: "He killed me."

"what?!"

Xiao Baojing looked at the notice in surprise. The name Ji Zhengyan was pointing at was "Ji Huaisheng".

She was about to ask him why Ji Huaisheng wanted to kill him when the festive music of gongs and suona came from not far away.

"The auspicious time has arrived, the young lady is getting married!" The servant shouted in a shrill voice while beating the gong.

Another servant shouted, "The new son-in-law is coming to pick up the bride!"

The guests around exclaimed: "The Ji family married a wife, and the Huo family married a daughter. Mr. Ji and Miss Huo are really a perfect match! Winning the first place in the imperial examination and spending the wedding night together are really the happiest things in life!"

Ji family marries a wife?

Xiao Baojing's mind raced, and he grabbed a guest by the sleeve: "What's the groom's name?"

"You little girl, you ran into someone else's garden to drink, but you don't know the name of their new son-in-law? Of course it's the son of the Xiangfu family, Ji Huaisheng! The bride, Miss Huo, is the apple of the eye of the richest man in Lingcheng. Her name is Yingying. She and Mr. Ji are destined to be a match made in heaven. It will be a happy occasion tonight!"

Ji Huaisheng and Huo Yingying...

As they were talking, maids and servants appeared at the banquet, supporting a newlywed couple.

Xiao Baojing looked over curiously.

The bride held a round fan with lotus flowers on the stalks, and wore an intricate and exquisite red wedding gown. The layers of skirt and wide sleeves looked like pomegranate petals, and the embroidery with gold thread and pearls reflected brightly in the light of the lanterns. She had dark eyebrows and a bright face, and was a beautiful bride as white as dough.

The groom next to her had sunken cheeks and dull eyes, as if all his energy had been sucked out of him, and he walked and moved entirely on his body's instincts.

Xiao Baojing was still watching when a cold wind suddenly blew beside him.

The small fish lantern crown on Ji Zhengyan's hair bun quietly went out, her whole body was dripping with water, as if she had just been fished out of the water, her nails quietly turned black and sharp, and her eyes were fixed on the groom.

Xiao Baojing nervously advised: "Ji Zhengyan, don't be impulsive! We are on someone else's territory after all, please don't do anything rash!"

However, Ji Zhengyan didn't listen at all.

The sudden bitter wind and rain made the lanterns in the garden flicker and almost fall down.

Ji Zhengyan said sternly: "Ji Huaisheng, I will kill you!"

He turned into wind and rain, rolled up the dead leaves in the garden, and attacked Ji Huaisheng fiercely!
The wedding banquet was in chaos and the guests ran screaming for their lives.

The servant and the maid tried to stop Ji Zhengyan, but were knocked to the ground by the violent storm.

Xiao Baojing looked at the countless loquat branches and fruits that had fallen to the ground, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "So they are also monsters?"

Because the loquats were not ripe yet, the maids wore yellow-green skirts. Perhaps because their magic power was low, they all transformed into the same round face...

But now is obviously not the time to think about these things.

Because when Ji Zhengyan was about to approach Ji Huaisheng, the pretty and fair-looking Miss Huo suddenly looked fierce, swung her wide sleeves, and used her powerful magic power to knock Ji Zhengyan to the ground!
She shouted tenderly, "Who dares to ruin my wedding banquet?!" There was a bitter wind and rain in the garden, and the fallen lanterns ignited into flames like burning butterflies.

While Miss Huo turned around to care about Ji Huaisheng, Xiao Baojing took advantage of the chaos to run to Ji Zhengyan, quietly put him into "The Analects of Confucius", and ran away.

The servants reacted and chased after him: "Don't run!"

Xiao Baojing ran faster.

She's not stupid, why would she stay if she doesn't run away? !

Banquet corner.

Xiao Qian was peeling a red egg and was stunned: "My sister-in-law ran so fast."

Shang Bing was drinking wine in his hands.

In the sight, the girl's light yellow skirt fluttered in the wind, the brilliant color of orange stamens, and was particularly bright and charming in the long night of wind and rain. She had two pigtails, and her hair full of hibiscus flowers trembled in the wind and rain, just like a lively and clever butterfly.

He narrowed his fox eyes.

His little princess is so pretty.

Xiao Baojing was chased all the way until he escaped into a ruined temple, and those people did not chase him in.

The red lanterns hanging in front of the dilapidated temple cast light and shadows in the dark night, dimly illuminating the situation inside the temple.

The girl sat on the box, panting. She swallowed hard, her throat about to smoke, and took out the Analects from her bag: "Ji Zhengyan, are you okay?"

A figure wearing a long robe and a wide belt appears in "The Analects of Confucius".

He stood in the darkness, the fish lantern dim and his brows dark: "Nothing."

Xiao Baojing pursed his lips.

Ji Zhengyan's figure seemed to become fainter.

If he became a ghost of the imperial examination after his death because of his obsession, then if he had stayed in the loquat garden and gradually forgot his past, does it mean that he no longer had any obsession?

When the ghosts no longer have obsessions...

Does this mean that he will completely disappear from the world?

Xiao Baojing clenched his hands.

She didn't dare to waste time and quickly took out her pen, ink, paper and inkstone: "I'm afraid that tomorrow morning, we will forget something again. I want to write down everything that happened tonight on paper."

She wrote in detail, not only describing everything that happened tonight, but also specifically recording Ji Zhengyan's affairs.

After finishing writing, she nervously hid the pieces of rice paper and "The Analects" in her bag and held them tightly in her arms.

She must hurry and find a way to leave this strange and eerie loquat garden before Ji Zhengyan's soul dissipates.

Day three.

It is dawn.

Xiao Baojing rubbed his eyes and sat up from the cage.

After being in a daze for a while, she remembered that she had traveled through time and space, and she was going to Yejing to find the imperial teacher.

She looked towards the temple.

The peddler was still sleeping on the haystack, and opposite him was a young man with an unfamiliar face, who must have been someone who was resting in this dilapidated temple.

I don’t know how far she and the peddler are from Yejing.

 Thank you Green Rain 15 and your knight for the reward! Thank you all for your support. This book was tested for PK a few days ago. I was very nervous. Fortunately, you were there. I passed. I will have the second PK in two days. I am very nervous.
