Chapter 70
At this time, a majestic voice sounded from behind: "Princess, keep silent."

Pei Wanyin turned her head and saw Xie Jie standing behind her, looking very indifferent.She trembled, she was a little drowsy at first, but now she is awake, and she dare not breathe out.

She took the book and stood up in front of her face, but her slightly bent back straightened quietly, changing her lazy and sloppy attitude just now.

Yun Zhuo wanted to laugh, but just as a smile appeared on her face, Xie Jie glanced at her suddenly. She curled her lips and simply followed Pei Wanyin's example by holding a book to cover her face—it was just that Pei Wanyin wanted to avoid being seen by Xie Jie. But she didn't want to see Xie Jie.

Xie Jie saw that the two were honest, so he went back to the crowd and continued to talk about urging everyone to study hard.

Zhao Yuying looked at him softly, she thought that it would be difficult for them to see each other after parting in the palace, but she never expected that he would also come to the academy.

Maybe it was because her eyes were too eager, Xie Jie turned his head and recognized that she had been the princess's companion in Shangshufang, so he nodded slightly.

Almost instantly, Zhao Yuying's nails dug hard into her palm. She was so pleasantly surprised that she stared straight at him and even held her breath.

Their identities are very different. She never dared to reveal her thoughts about him to others, but she couldn't help but look at him anyway. She didn't expect that he actually remembered her.

With his status, he interacts with many princes and nobles every day, and he has to take time to deal with important affairs. She has only listened to him in his class for a short time, but he can remember her.

Zhao Yuying didn't know how to describe this feeling. He obviously didn't do anything, but just glanced at her and nodded, and she felt that she had already been rewarded.

Xie Jie just came to visit them on behalf of the emperor, and by the way conveyed the emperor's hope that they would improve their studies, and left after a few quick words.

Pei Wanyin put down the book and took a deep breath. She looked suffocated, but soon she found the fun again, looked at Zhao Yuying mockingly, and said, "She is reluctant."

Yun Zhuo didn't understand what she meant at first, but when she turned her head and saw Zhao Yuying staring at the direction Xie Jie was leaving, she finally understood, and she sighed: "It's also a poor person."

She looked at Zhao Yuying now, and thought of her in the past.She calculated her marriage with Pei Yan, and Pei Yan harmed the entire Yun family; Zhao Yuying once calculated Xie Jie's innocence, and all the evil results were repaid on her.

Pei Wanyin pinched her: "What are you doing to pity her!"

She didn't hit hard, but Yun Zhuo deliberately scared her, covered the place where she was pinched and turned her face away, looking in pain.

Pei Wanyin was really frightened, she hastily tugged at her sleeves, and kept calling out: "My dear sister, did you pinch you, you... At worst, pinch you back, I'm sorry, don't ignore me I."

Yun Zhuo turned around with a smile and glanced at her, and asked, "Is it really wrong?"

Pei Wanyin knew that she was teasing her, but she was really afraid that she would get angry, so she nodded repeatedly: "I know, I know."

Yun Zhuo then turned around and asked her softly: "Isn't it pitiful that she fell in love with a man who could never fall in love with her?"

Pei Wanyin said: "Even if she is pitiful, she deserves it. If she can't see her position clearly, and has such inappropriate thoughts, it's no wonder she's pitiful."

Yun Zhuo smiled and said, "That's true."

She once had such inappropriate thoughts, and paid a painful price for it. To some extent, she hoped that Zhao Yuying could think it through as soon as possible.

It's just that at night, Yun Zhuo no longer has such thoughts.

That night, when she returned to Lanzhai, she had just changed her clothes and was about to go to bed to read, when Pei Wanyin mysteriously called her up and asked her to go out for a walk with her.

Yun Zhuo actually didn't like reading books at first, so the self-consciousness and self-control in her mind were quickly thrown away by Pei Wanyin's bombardment. She put on a cloak and sneaked out of Lanzhai together with Pei Wanyin.

The school has a set rest time at night. Before that, everyone can come in and out of the house at will, and Qinsi Yuanmin Academy and dining hall are also open as usual.

So Yun Zhuo couldn't understand why Pei Wanyin wanted to go out for a walk and why she had to sneak around to avoid everyone's eyes and ears.

But soon she understood.

They actually came to the courtyard where Xie Jie lived.

This yard used to be deserted, but now it has a new owner and has been repaired. It can be seen that the repairs are a bit hasty, because the flowers and plants in the yard have no pattern, but you are bustling with each other In one place, it looks lively, but it loses that delicate and beautiful feeling.

She and Pei Wanyin squatted halfway in the shadow under the courtyard wall like thieves, and she whispered to Pei Wanyin: "What are we doing here?"

In case Xie Jie finds out, wouldn't they be able to eat and walk around?Because of this fear, everything she said became breathless.She didn't know how long Xie Jie would be here, but thinking of his relationship with the teacher, she felt that she could not do anything too outrageous in front of him.

The joke on the mountain road in the temple the day before yesterday could be said to be because the two of them had a good relationship in private, so she acted so boldly.But now that he and the princess of Yiguo peeped at Lord Shoufu's private life, Yun Zhuo felt that this was too outrageous.

Pei Wanyin also felt very excited.

She imitated Yun Zhuo and spoke in a breathy voice: "I bumped into Zhao Yuying during the day and asked people about Mr. Xie's residence. I guess she is coming today. Why don't we wait here, she must come later."

"What do you want to do?" Yun Zhuo had some bad premonitions in her heart, but don't be like what she thought.

Unexpectedly, Pei Wanyin ignored her and just stared at the courtyard door, waiting for Zhao Yuying's arrival.

Yun Zhuo actually thinks that Zhao Yuying will not come. Even if she likes him again, she is still the daughter of a noble family who was educated by the Duke's mansion. Things like breaking into a man's house at night don't sound like a lady can do it. thing.

The sky is high and the moon is small, everything is shrouded in darkness, the shadows of flowers and trees fall on the ground and become mottled, but the radiant light from the small courtyard seems somewhat warm.

The sound of a bird came from an unknown treetop, and then suddenly flapped its wings and flew away, scaring Yun Zhuo and Pei Wanyin almost to hold their breath.

Just when Yun Zhuo wanted Pei Wanyin to leave, a figure in a long skirt gradually came into their sight.

When they raised their heads, they could only see her back, but the way she walked was undoubtedly Zhao Yuying.

Yun Zhuo and Pei Wanyin looked at each other, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes. It seemed that they didn't expect that she really came?

"I thought...she didn't have that much courage." Pei Wanyin said to Yun Zhuo with her eyes widened.
