Since Jiang Shidu had spoken, Yu Tanqi naturally had no reason to refuse.

"good."

The two walked forward side by side. Linlang slowed down her pace with the lantern in her hand, keeping a distance from them that was neither too far nor too close.

As a qualified maid, she would not come in front of her master and cause trouble at this time.

Although it was late at night and everyone was asleep, she was there, and the young lady and Prince Jiang were not alone together, so it was not a big problem.

Linlang quietly looked at the young man and girl walking side by side in front of her.

Jiang Shi held a lantern in his hand, which could illuminate the surroundings and the road ahead.

Yu Tanqi took small steps, so he slowed down his pace and walked slowly with her.

"Miss Yu, is there anything on your mind?" Jiang Shi asked gently.

He lowered his head slightly and looked at the girl beside him.

The cold moonlight fell on her. The girl was wearing thin clothes, and her small face, the size of a palm, was adorable.

She lowered her eyes slightly, looked at the ground, clutched her fingers, and did not look up at him.

After a long silence, she whispered, "Maybe it's because the Spring Examination has begun, and I'm a little worried about the results being announced after it's over."

In the original book, Jiang Shi was arrested by the Dali Temple on the day the results of the Spring Examination were announced.

This was the first and only time that Jiang Shi went to jail.

In fact, Jiang Shi did not suffer much, but during the time he was imprisoned, there were more rumors in the capital. Yu Tanqi was worried that Xie Jing would find out and send Jiang Shi back to the Xie family before she came out.

Although she will not return to the Xie family.

Jiang Shi's eyes flickered slightly, and he chuckled softly, "So Miss Yu is worried about Master Xie? I believe that with Master Xie's talent, he will definitely be on the list and enter the palace examination."

Yu Tanqi responded softly, then looked up at the crescent moon in the starry sky.

A breeze blew, lifting her hair and skirt.

She suddenly said, "The moonlight tonight is beautiful, and the wind is gentle."

Jiang Shi looked at her, his dark eyes showing a gentle smile: "Well, the night is beautiful."

When she looked over, he looked away and looked at the crescent moon in the night sky.

The cold moonlight shone on his face, and the light in the boy's eyes was so beautiful and moving that she was lost in thought.

The spring night was gentle, and his voice was soft and gentle: "Actually, I have a nickname that my mother gave me before I was born. It's Zi'an."

Yu Tanqi's eyelashes trembled slightly.

"Zi'an, my mother hoped her child would have a peaceful life, so she named him Zi'an, saying it could be used as a nickname for a boy or girl."

The small word "Zi'an" carries a mother's endless blessings and love for her child.

"Miss Yu, if you don't mind, you can call me by my nickname in private."

Yu Tanqi pursed her lips slightly and whispered, "Zi'an."

The girl's voice was soft and sweet.

Jiang Shi felt that the softest part of his heart was numb from the gentle touch of "Zi'an".

Yu Tanqi seemed to realize something, feeling a little nervous and embarrassed, with her heart beating wildly.

"I don't have a nickname. My grandmother and others usually call me Tan Qi." She only said this and didn't say anything else.

"Tan Qi, a very nice name." Jiang Shi still remembered her self-introduction that day, "Tan means sandalwood, Qi means beautiful and beautiful, it shows that your uncle and aunt have good expectations for you."

Yu Tanqi blushed a little. Okay, she now admitted that she had intended to show off her talent at first, but when he said it, she only heard sincere appreciation.

There is such a person, no matter what he says or does, he will make you feel extremely good.

Perhaps it was because the moonlight tonight was too beautiful and the wind was too gentle. Yu Tanqi covered his heart and felt it beating restlessly.

Be quiet, don't let anyone hear you.

"Tan Qi." Jiang Shi called her name naturally. "After the Spring Examination results are announced, the capital will be very noisy. You should stay in the Marquis' Mansion and try not to go out."

"Okay." Yu Tanqi responded softly without asking why.

She would pretend that she knew nothing, and she should know nothing, so that she could stay with him.

…

Ever since that long, sleepless night, Yu Tanqi and Jiang Shi no longer called each other "Prince" and "Miss Yu" when they met, but "Zi'an" and "Tanqi".

The relationship between the two has taken a step forward and they get along more easily.

As the young boys and girls got along, the usually deserted Wu'an Marquis Mansion was filled with more laughter and joy.

On the second day after the Spring Examination, Yu Tanqi and Jiang Shi took a carriage to pick him up and take him back home.

There were huge crowds of people outside the examination hall, and many candidates had to be helped out. The ten-day closed examination made them feel dazed, and those in poor health could not even speak with strength.

But there are a few candidates who stand out from the crowd, with tall and straight postures and handsome looks, which can be noticed at a glance.

Xie Jing, Chi Li and Su Ji standing together formed a beautiful landscape.

After staying in such a closed environment as the examination room for ten days, the three of them did not get any bad smell. Although their faces were a little pale, they still looked dignified and attracted attention.

Su Ji also pretended to hold a fan and looked at Xie Jing and Chi Li with a smile, "There are so many people here now, let's go out later."

Xie Jing's eyes fell on the carriages coming and going. "You guys go ahead when the time comes. I have someone to pick me up."

Chi Li's eyes flickered and he pursed his lips slightly.

Su Ji smiled and said, "Is it your sister Tan Qi? Indeed, the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion is definitely more comfortable than the inn."

He originally wanted to say that it would be fine for two more people to live in such a big mansion, but when he saw Chi Li, he swallowed his words.

The whole Chen County knew what Jiang Xuan had done, except Chi Li.

Xie Jing did not vent his anger on Chi Li and treated him the same as before, but the Xie family and the Chi family could no longer go back to the way they were before.

Chi Li doesn't know it yet, but he will know it sooner or later.

Su Ji sighed, smiled and shook his head. Beautiful women have always been a disaster, but "male friends" are no less so.

Fortunately, he doesn't have such a cousin.

Chi Li spoke in a hoarse voice, "Since arriving in the capital, I haven't met Sister Tan Qi and Prince Jiang yet. I wanted to wait with you, Ajing, to greet them."

Xie Jing looked at him, pursed his lips, and ultimately said nothing.

After all, we grew up together.

After Yu Tanqi got off the carriage, she saw three handsome boys with different styles standing together, all looking at her.

She curled the corners of her lips and walked towards them with Jiang Shi, "Cousin Jing, Master Chi, Master Su."

Chi Li keenly heard Yu Tanqi calling him "Master Chi", pursed his lips slightly, and felt bitter in his heart.

After greeting each other, Yu Tanqi asked, "Where do Master Chi and Master Su live?"

Su Ji glanced at Chi Li, who looked dejected, and smiled, "We have a courtyard to live in the capital, but we don't have any family to accompany us, so we have to walk back by ourselves."

Forget it, let’s help him.
