Villainess Xiao Li transmigrated into a book and became the wicked princess who was infatuated with the second male lead.
She oppressed others with power and seized what she desired, so she d...
The Lantern Festival is very lively, but in Xiao Li's eyes, it is not novel and has little appeal.
Feng Yin saw that she was not interested and immediately took her to the teahouse.
The Feng family's teahouse was doing the best business today, but they had specially reserved the best floor.
You can tell it's been carefully arranged, with the extra tables cleared away, leaving only the one with the best view.
The surroundings were cleaned, various porcelain carvings were placed in the open space as decoration, and the ground was covered with a cashmere carpet.
The table was covered with fine silk, tea was boiling on the charcoal fire, various roasted dried fruits exuded a unique aroma, silver tableware and snacks were laid out one by one, as well as fresh fruits that were rare to see in this season.
There are also two very beautiful lanterns hanging next to it as decoration.
The level of maturity of this effort is truly impressive.
"Did you prepare all this?"
Feng Yin said embarrassedly, "That's all I can think of. If you don't like it, please tell me directly. I'll change it next time."
Xiao Li: “…” I really can’t tell, he’s a talented player in chasing girls?
This teahouse is in an excellent location. There are people selling lanterns downstairs, and there is a circus stage opposite. Sitting upstairs, you can watch all kinds of circus from the most comprehensive perspective, and you can also listen to the people downstairs guessing lantern riddles. However, it is still early, and not many people come to buy lanterns.
Xiao Li looked around and then looked away with a lack of interest. Instead of looking at those things outside, it was more interesting to look at the little fool in front of him.
Speaking of which, this was the first time they had sat face to face. They had met before for various reasons and had rarely exchanged serious words.
Xiao Li stared at the man until he was almost embarrassed, then he spoke slowly: "What do you usually do?"
Feng Yin immediately replied: "Reading, writing, and occasionally going out to meet friends."
It is normal to study at this age.
"Are you studying at home, or at the Imperial College?"
Feng Yin: "I go to the Imperial Academy occasionally and give a few lessons to the little prince and other students."
Xiao Lizhen was a little surprised: "You're going to give a lecture?"
Feng Yin: "Not very often, only once every four days. Normally I'm in Dulin Garden compiling books."
Dulin Garden was a government office dedicated to book editing, responsible for the compilation and revision of various books. The attic in the middle of Dulin Garden was the royal library, which was said to have a collection of 30,000 volumes and was a holy place for literati and poets all over the world.
Xiao Li was silent for a moment: "Only officials can participate in the revision of the book."
Feng Yin smiled shyly, "I entered the Dulin Garden as a sixth-rank editor when I was fifteen. It's been almost five years now, and I was only promoted to the fourth rank and became the head of the department a few years ago. The princess laughed at me."
Xiao Li: “…”
It's not that she doesn't understand the rules of aristocratic children's careers in officialdom. Those above the third rank are all from aristocratic families. It doesn't mean that they are born as third rank, but that these children from aristocratic families are sent to the officialdom to hone their skills at a very young age. When they are old enough, they replace their fathers' official positions and can even climb up the ladder. Because resources are absolutely tilted, those above the third rank are all from aristocratic families.
But Feng Yin... with his baby face and simple and shy personality, he was already a fourth-rank official at the age of less than 20.
Xiao Li took a sip of tea and calmed down.
"sharp!"
His grandfather is powerful, his whole family is powerful, and he is also powerful.
Not to mention that he was promoted to an official position by his grandfather's prestige and the Feng family's support, even if he was promoted, the fact that he could stay in the position was a skill.
If Xiao Li had only regarded him as a cute boy and a sweet little bean before, at this moment, his view completely changed.
It was also her fault that she had not taken him seriously before and had never checked him out at all, which led to her shock at this moment.
Judging people by appearance is a big taboo!
The admiration in Xiao Li's eyes was not concealed. Feng Yin felt that it was not until this moment that she finally noticed him.
Xiao Li's interest was aroused, and he took the young man seriously. The two chatted while drinking tea.
The young man named Feng Yin gradually became three-dimensional in her consciousness.
Feng Yin was born into a family of great civil servants. He was enlightened by his grandfather, the Grand Tutor. He loved reading and had a photographic memory.
Because he was raised as a girl when he was young, he hardly ever went out, which gave him more time to study.
He was cheated several times, but it was only because his interpersonal relationships were simple and the other party was his brother-in-law that he was particularly trusting.
But if he were in Dulin Garden, he would be responsible for the review.
Because he can read ten lines at a glance and has an excellent memory, no mistake can escape his eyes.
He is responsible for reviewing the compiled books, correcting typos, checking the catalog, and re-proofreading.
No wonder he has a serious and old-fashioned temperament.
It was not until the lights outside came on that Xiao Li realized it was dark.
And she actually sat here and chatted with him for nearly two hours.
"Would the princess like to go down and take a walk?"
Feng Yin's eyes were filled with anticipation.
Xiao Li moved, frowning in pain from her stomach: "You... let me take care of a small problem first."
It was not until Xiao Li left that Feng Yin finally understood what was going on, and his face suddenly became very red.
After solving the three urgent problems, Xiao Li was awakened by the night wind.
She did not come out alone. Hongyue followed closely beside her, and Rong Qing and Yang Jun stood not far away to protect her. There were no less than fifty guards disguised as civilians around the teahouse.
In addition to Xiao Li's guards, Feng Yin also arranged some personnel.
Although it seems a bit exaggerated, if it wasn't a little bit exaggerated, those who wanted to kill Xiao Li would have done it long ago.
It's rare that I'm in a good mood, I can't let anyone ruin it.
When Xiao Li was passing by the corridor on her way back, she was just casually glancing down when suddenly a figure in the crowd caught her attention.
The man had snow-white hair and a tall and slender figure. Only his back could be seen, but Xiao Li's heart inexplicably skipped a beat.
This person is very strange, should she know him?
But she had never seen anyone with white hair, and this person seemed very young.
"Yang Jun, follow him!"
Xiao Li's intuition told her that she had to know who this person was.
Yang Jun hurried downstairs. Feng Yin passed him by and asked, "What happened?"
The figure had already disappeared in the crowd. Xiao Li retracted his gaze and said, "It's okay. I saw a strange person."
Feng Yin took a quick look and didn't see anyone strange, so he didn't ask. She was the only person he cared about today. "Then will the princess still go down?"
Xiao Li thought for a moment and said, "Let's go."
There were a lot of people at the Lantern Festival, and it was very lively and bustling. However, Rong Qing was tall and strong, and he was holding a big knife, so when the people saw him, they would naturally keep some distance from him.
Feng Yin wanted to accompany Xiao Li for a leisurely stroll, but Xiao Li's feet unconsciously followed the direction the man had just left.
She really wanted to know who that person was. That person gave her a very strange feeling.
"Princess." Seeing that she was about to enter the alley, Feng Yin finally reached out and grabbed her: "Princess, that's not the lantern festival. The river lanterns are on the other side."
"oh."
Xiao Li suddenly woke up as if from a dream and turned around to leave with him, but at this moment, she saw the white-haired figure standing at the other end of the alley. She couldn't see him clearly, but she could feel his gaze fixed on her, which was eerie and creepy.
