Palace scheming: Empress Leng Palace

Chapter 179

After school, Zhong Nianlou, who was sitting leaning against a tree, walked alone under a big willow tree he often visited, and read with a book in his hands.

This has been his habit for many years. Except for wind and rain, as long as someone wants to find Zhongnianlou, he only needs to run to the big willow tree that has lived for more than 100 years on the left bank of the inner city river, and he will be able to find it. get.


Someone once laughed and said that this Zhong Xiucai was probably born of a monk in his previous life, so he could sit there and read a book without moving for a long time. Book of sages.


It's a pity that he rushed to take the exam for three years, but except for one scholar who passed the exam, he has never been able to go to high school.

Some people say that he is too rigid. If he doesn't know how to adapt and just study hard, he will be tested for a lifetime, and at most he will only get one of the candidates.Don't count on the second place in the rankings and the like in his life.


And the so-called workaround is to spend some money to be reincarnated under the name of some high-ranking officials, and to be a student of high-ranking officials.In that way, if you want to be promoted in the future, you don't have to go to such trouble.

Now, he is all focused on his studies, and when it comes time to take the exams, his grades are impressive, but because of the quotas he is often squeezed out by some well-connected people, in the end it is still nothing.


Facing all this, Zhong Nianlou turned a deaf ear to it.He ignored the persuasion of those former classmates, and only said that if someone truly appreciates his talent, then his efforts will not be wasted and his academic ability will be fully utilized.

If he stepped into the court only based on his personal relationship, then he is just a follower of the crowd, and he is no different from those who follow others all day long.


As time goes by, for such an idiot who only knows how to read books all day long, people gradually forget his talent.Except for someone who sent his child to his private school to study, wrote couplets during the New Year and holidays, or wrote letters when there was something at home, people would not think of this person.


At this moment, he was burying his head in the book and studying it carefully, completely abandoning all the external affairs around him, so that when Yun Qing and Xuanyuan Ze walked in front of him, he was still staring blankly at the two in front of him who looked like A pair of wall men walking out of the painting forgot to blink.


"The two of you are..." He looked at Yun Qing, who was so beautiful and so beautiful with a smile on his face, and then at the handsome man exuding invisible domineering arrogance. Edited, said: "You two look familiar, may I ask, has Xiaosheng met you anywhere?".


"Hehe, hello! We were just passing by here, and we were attracted by the sound of the young master's book. I don't know what to call the young master?" Yun Qing smiled slightly and returned the salute, but the other party hurriedly returned the salute when he saw this, so that Xuanyuanze, who had been holding Yun Qing tightly, exerted a little force on his palm, and stopped Yun Qing's gesture of returning greetings to a strange man.


If he hadn't been ashamed of his attitude towards her back then, he would never have allowed her to appear in front of other men so close at this moment, let alone with such a soft and charming smile, which made him extremely pampered.


"Oh, Xiaosheng remembered. Girl, aren't you the lady who saved Xiaosheng's life in the night of Shangyuan?" The two were secretly competing with each other under the sleeves invisible to outsiders, but Zhong Nianlou was straight. He stared at Yun Qing for a long while, and then his handsome eyes lit up, and a clear light immediately appeared in his eyes.

I saw that he suddenly bowed heavily to Yun Qing, and said happily: "My benefactor is above, please accept Xiaosheng's bow.".


"Hey, my lord, hurry up and give up the gift." Yun Qing was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to block it, but Xuanyuan Ze pulled her wrist and held her firmly, making her accept a big gift from Zhong Nianlou.


"What are you doing?" Yun Qing was held back by him twice, and couldn't let go of his hand several times. At this moment, he turned his head and glared at him with some dissatisfaction, but he saw his handsome face, and he didn't have the slightest attitude to chat with others. .

But she, on the other hand, desperately wanted to find a wise man for him, but instead she had to be stared at by him ungratefully.


Xuanyuanze just raised his eyebrows and said nothing, although he didn't make a sound, but the clearly unhappy expression told Yun Qing clearly that he didn't want her to have any contact with the scholar in front of him.


"You..." Yun Qing stomped his feet secretly, but their identities could not be known to others, so he gave him a sullen look, then turned his head and smiled at Zhong Nianlou again, and said with a smile: "Last time We can only lift our hands to do this, so you don’t have to worry about it. You and I will see each other again after a few months, so it’s fate..."


Tightening her wrist again, Yun Qingxiu frowned, puzzled Zhong Nianlou who was quietly listening to her, and then she continued to say: "There is no such thing as a friend in the world, and there is no such thing as a friend. So, we It's better to talk with friends, thank you like this, it seems to be born.".

As she said that, she ignored the stiff expressions of the people around her that could easily make people feel cold, and smiled amiably.


"What Miss said is true. Xiaosheng is very honored to be called Miss as a friend. It's just that Miss's great kindness before, although Xiaosheng can't repay it, but he will remember it in his heart for the rest of his life. It's rare to meet again today. Miss's kindness, Thank you very much." Zhong Nianlou insisted on bowing and thanking him three times, then straightened up, looked at Yunqing and Xuanyuanze again, clasped his hands together and said: "Xiaosheng's surname is Zhong, and his name is Nianlou, I don't know how to call you two? ".


"Oh, the little girl's surname is Yun, and she is the third eldest at home. You can just call me Miss Yun. As for this one, he is my cousin, surnamed Wan, and named Shui. Hehe, we are only out for an outing today, so it is rare to meet Mr. Zhong , It is really a coincidence. Excuse me, the book you read just now is "The Analects of Confucius"?" Yun Qing's eyes flashed, and he made up the identities of the two casually, then changed the topic with a smile.


And Xuanyuanze was really dumbfounded after hearing the name she improvised for herself.

Wanshui!She is really smart, she can not only resolve the consequences of self-reporting her real name in a short period of time, but also clearly tell the other party the identity of herself and others.


As for whether it can be understood, it depends on the other party's comprehension.

But in front of ordinary people, it is simply impossible to compare yourself with Long Live today!Heh, it's hard for her. Without lying, she even thought of an excellent travel name for the two of them.
