Zhuo Jun didn't expect Xiao Hanzheng to be so disrespectful on the spot just because of his words.
I felt so upset that my eyes turned red.
Fang Zhijun walked over and said, "You didn't mean it. Don't say bad things about his wife in front of Jinyu in the future."
Zhuo Jun took a deep breath and wanted to get angry but held back, "I drank too much today and didn't pay attention to what I said. I will be more careful next time."
He seemed to be worried and said, "I just don't know if Jinyu will blame me in the future and really stop associating with me."
Fang Zhijun smiled and comforted, "Jinyu is broad-minded. As long as you don't mention his wife next time, he won't mind."
Zhuo Jun forced a smile and said, "Well, I'll take my leave now."
Fang Zhijun said: "Okay, let's get together again after the palace examination."
Zhuo Jun nodded and left with the servant.
After Xiao Hanzheng returned to the capital, he went to the residence of Marquis Zhennan and took Shi Qingluo back.
Although he was making excuses before, it really happened.
Sitting in the carriage, Shi Qingluo poured a cup of hot water for Xiao Hanzheng, "You smell like alcohol. How much did you drink?"
Xiao Hanzheng took it and drank a few sips, and immediately felt his whole body warmed up.
He said, "The maid accidentally spilled some wine on my clothes before, so the smell of wine is so strong."
After he finished speaking, he saw his young wife looking at him with an expression as if she was watching a show.
Shi Qingluo smiled and said, "Could it be that the maid did it on purpose, asking you to go to a side room to change clothes, and then a beautiful woman appeared?"
He tapped her forehead, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "What are you thinking about?"
"That maid really didn't mean to do that. She accidentally stepped on a branch and tripped."
"I didn't change my clothes, but I went to the side room to wipe my clothes and dry them with a hand warmer."
Shi Qingluo raised his eyebrows, "Ah, that's it?"
Xiao Hanzheng laughed, "You even want to watch your husband's play?"
Shi Qingluo chuckled and said, "Of course."
"But I believe you will protect your innocence, so there is no harm in watching the show."
Her young husband is a martial arts expert who also knows medicine, and he is also very smart and agile, so it is difficult for him to be plotted against in the side room.
Xiao Hanzheng squeezed her hand and said, "Then I would like to thank you for your trust."
He changed the subject and said, "But today I did have an unexpected gain."
Shi Qingluo's eyes lit up, and he looked at him with a gossipy look on his face and asked, "Why, did Zhuo Jun confess his love to you? Or did he show something very wrong to you?"
Xiao Hanzheng was once again at a loss whether to laugh or cry. If it were any other woman, she would have gotten jealous and made a scene.
Only his young wife would do this.
"How can I confess my feelings? You're overthinking it."
"But he would often sneak glances at me, and both of our clothes were splashed with wine."
"In the side room, Zhuo Jun deliberately sprained his ankle and almost fell into my arms."
Shi Qingluo raised his eyebrows again, "Then do you have any warm and soft jade?"
Xiao Hanzheng took her hand and kissed it on his lips, "How is that possible? I will only hug you, my lady, in my whole life."
Shi Qingluo curled his lips, "That's more like it."
However, the young husband has a strong desire to survive, and of course his words are becoming more and more sweet when he tries to coax people.
"Then he must be attracted to you. Is he really a homosexual?"
If he already has a fiancée and she's a homosexual, that would be a bit too much.
Xiao Hanzheng smiled and said, "I'm not gay, but I do have some problems."
"Zhuo Jun wanted to fall into my arms on purpose, so I took the initiative to help him up and took his pulse."
If there is a problem with taking the pulse, it is definitely these two problems.
Xiao Hanzheng discovered that his young wife was still as smart as ever.
He hugged Shi Qingluo and whispered in her ear, "A woman dressed as a man."
Shi Qingluo's eyes widened. "Is she really a woman?"
"Then how did she manage to pass the imperial examinations?"
Xiao Hanzheng told her about the scientific examination inspection, "So she took advantage of the fact that there was no body search."
Shi Qingluo was really surprised. She had previously thought that Zhuo Jun was a homosexual.
She asked: "Didn't anyone realize she was a woman during the time you were in contact with her?"
Xiao Hanzheng shook his head, "I really didn't notice it. After all, who would have thought that she was a woman and was so brave that she dared to pretend to be a man to participate in the scientific examination."
"And if you don't look closely, he doesn't look like a woman from the way he walks, talks, and has a certain demeanor."
"It looks like there's still an Adam's apple."
If it weren't for his young wife's reminder, he would have found it difficult to discover that Zhuo Jun was a woman. The other party concealed it so well.
Shi Qingluo nodded, "That's right, her voice didn't sound like a female voice that day."
"Since you confirmed it by taking her pulse, her Adam's apple must be fake."
Xiao Hanzheng nodded, "Nine out of ten."
Shi Qingluo asked again: "Did you notice something was wrong at the beginning?"
Otherwise, my husband would not have taken the opportunity to take my pulse.
Xiao Hanzheng replied: "Yes, I accidentally smelled the orchid fragrance you mixed on her. Because my sister likes it very much, I don't think men will like it very much."
If it were him, he wouldn't like to use incense with this smell.
"After I found something was wrong, I looked at her hands and feet. They were much more delicate than a man's. I had a guess, so I took the opportunity to feel her pulse."
Shi Qingluo thought for a moment and asked, "Did you check before? What was the situation of their family?"
Xiao Hanzheng said: "Her father was once a deputy general, but he died on the battlefield."
"So she was raised by a widowed mother, and she has a brother who is three years younger."
"Her mother opened an embroidery shop in the north city. Although she is not rich, she lives a good life."
Shi Qingluo asked again: "Are there any top-notch relatives who are looking for trouble and bullying?"
Xiao Hanzheng shook his head: "No, her father's village was massacred by the Ge people who passed by during the war between the two armies."
"Her father happened to be a soldier at the time, so she escaped the disaster."
"According to the news, her father also died in battle after he saw the Ge people who massacred the village. He rushed into the enemy army to avenge his relatives."
"The population on her mother's side is also simple, and the relationship between them is pretty good."
Shi Qingluo frowned slightly, "If that's the case, then why did her family dress her up as a man?"
Generally, in this situation, it is because the elderly in the husband's family are partial to boys and favor girls over girls, so the mother will deliberately disguise the gender of the child.
Or maybe there are some bad guys eyeing them and want to take their family's property or something.
But Zhuo Jun's grandparents had passed away long ago, and she had no close relatives who were interested in her property. Her biological father also died in battle several years after she was born.
It always feels a bit strange to hide the change of gender in this way.
Xiao Hanzheng said: "I also feel that something is not right."
Shi Qingluo asked again: "Have you ever heard of Zhuo Jun? Her grades are so good, if her identity hadn't been exposed, she should have been on the list."
What she was referring to was naturally her husband's previous life.
