Chapter 67: Forgotten Promise. She just confessed her identity today and...
Chapter 67
The unreserved Lin Zhiyi returned to the Imperial College under the escort of Gu Tingxuan.
When the carriage passed by a fruit stall, she got off and personally bought some seasonal fruits. She DIY-ed a plate of fruit cuts for Gu Tingxuan and presented it to her sweetly and coquettishly: "Master~ You've worked so hard~"
Gu Tingxuan: "..." What can I do? I just spoil her.
She took the plate of fruit and cut it. "You're so attentive. It seems you've gained a lot from this audience with the Empress and the Princess."
Anyway, ever since she got on the carriage, the corners of her mouth have been raised, and she couldn't suppress it no matter how hard she tried.
Lin Zhiyi smiled and said, "Well, the princess is very nice, and so is the queen. I'm looking forward to getting married even more."
Gu Tingxuan: "Are you sure there are no more omissions?"
Lin Zhiyi nodded: "Yes. Don't worry, Master."
Gu Tingxuan then started to eat the fruit with peace of mind.
I have to admit, it’s really enjoyable to put all the cut fruits together so that you can eat any of them.
Xiuyuan is such a good kid at coaxing people!
"Master, take your time eating. I'm going to class now."
"Go ahead."
When I returned to Yafeng Hall, most of my classmates were still having lunch and had not returned yet. Only Zhou Mingyan was sitting in his seat, writing furiously, his head very close to the desk.
Oh, I almost forgot, this guy has poor eyesight.
Lin Zhiyi cleared her throat. Zhou Mingyan turned around and, as expected, narrowed her eyes before revealing her identity. "Xiuyuan? You're back. What took you so long? What did the princess summon you to do?"
"Of course, we'll have lunch together." Lin Zhiyi said with a smile, using a more modern expression.
Fortunately, Zhou Mingyan didn't think too much about it. He understood it and didn't go over it again.
He sighed, "The princess treats you so well..."
"I'm also very nice to the princess." Lin Zhiyi said.
"That's true."
"Are you writing a policy paper now?" Lin Zhiyi walked to his seat and sat down.
"Well, I figured I'd just write a quick essay while I could still focus." Zhou Mingyan, a 'bad student', was quite self-aware. "I'm not aiming for first place anyway. I just hope the teacher doesn't single me out and scold me in public."
Lin Zhiyi patted Zhou Mingyan on the shoulder and sighed, "Brother Zhou, you really have ambitions."
Zhou Mingyan turned his head to look at her hand on his shoulder, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked this time: "Xiuyuan, are you willing to have physical contact with me now?"
"Hmm?" Lin Zhiyi was about to take the opportunity to talk about his poor eyesight when she was suddenly interrupted. She was a little surprised and cast her eyes on her hands, then quickly looked away and said with a wry smile, "Sorry, I was too excited."
She had already realized from Zhou Mingyan's words that when Jing Yue controlled her body, she would not allow Zhou Mingyan to have physical contact with 'him'.
Thinking about how he had deliberately blocked her from looking at Tang Cong just now, Lin Zhiyi thought to himself: It turns out Jingyue is still a little jealous.
Even if it means he might be OOC, he won't allow others to touch him easily.
She herself doesn't care. After all, she comes from the real world, and some seemingly intimate actions between her and the opposite sex are actually not romantic but only show brotherhood or sisterhood, which is acceptable to her.
What's more, she was dressed as a man and mixed in with a group of male classmates. If she tried too hard to avoid contact with others, it would arouse suspicion.
——A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind.
——Being too conspicuous will attract more attention.
——The best strategy is to hide in the city.
Zhou Mingyan: "Why have you been so capricious lately?"
Lin Zhiyi found a perfect excuse: "I'm getting married soon, and I'm too nervous. There are too many things on my mind. Don't be angry with me. And don't be distant with me, okay? Brother Mingyan!"
Zhou Mingyan was a carefree person, so of course he wouldn't be angry with her. He just noticed the difference and asked casually.
"Then you and I are number one, okay?"
"Of course! You're the best!" Lin Zhiyi felt that Zhou Mingyan was just a child who had not grown up, so his coaxing skills came into play again.
"That's fine. Don't be too nervous. Just live a good life with the princess after you get married. You have His Majesty's favorite princess and a young master. What else do you have to worry about?"
"That's true. I'm taking your good words for granted." Lin Zhiyi cleverly changed the subject. "Do you remember the data I asked you to record about the distance your eyes can see?"
"I remember." Zhou Mingyan glanced at him, showing a rare display of arrogance. "You finally remembered? I thought you had forgotten it long ago. I also saw that you were too busy recently - with a lot of housework and schoolwork. That's why I didn't bother you with this matter."
Lin Zhiyi clasped his hands together and bowed to him apologetically: "My bad, my bad. I've been so busy lately that I really forgot. Give me the data now, and I'll give you a surprise later."
Zhou Mingyan wrote down the data and handed it to Lin Zhiyi, still curious, "What kind of surprise is it? Can you tell me directly? I want to know, not be surprised."
"Just wait for the surprise. Don't worry, I won't let you wait long this time!" Lin Zhiyi collected the data and promised.
When she was a "princess" in the palace, she noticed some items made of special materials, including crystal lenses needed for glasses.
Find an excellent craftsman and find the right angles, and you should be able to make glasses.
Lin Zhiyi remembers that when he was in the present world, he helped a friend invest in a variety show about Chinese studies and history, and learned that ancient glasses were made of crystal, and they existed as early as the Song Dynasty.
She thought that as long as the materials were suitable and the craftsmen had a spirit of exploration, coupled with her guidance and blessing of "traveling through time and space", she would definitely be able to make it!
Her honeymoon leave will start in two days, and she will have time to talk to her eldest and fourth sisters.
When she first came to this world, the beginning was not very favorable for her. She needed to explore slowly, and get to know the surrounding environment, the people around her, and everyone's personality bit by bit, before she could slowly output the knowledge and special ideas she possessed.
I originally wanted to find a craftsman, but now I think fourth sister might be able to give it a try?
After finishing the painting and mathematics classes in the afternoon, Lin Zhiyi had just come up with the idea of a pair of glasses for Zhou Mingyan.
As soon as she returned home, she asked Lin Song to grind the ink and Zhu'er to cut the paper, and she drew several glasses on the paper herself.
Zhu'er and Lin Song looked at the picture curiously and asked puzzledly, "Master, what are you drawing?"
"Good stuff!" Lin Zhiyi gave them a mysterious smile. "You'll know when the time comes! Oh, by the way, I'll draw another picture, just in time to test your eyesight."
She drew an eye chart with the letter E facing up, down, left, and right, in different sizes. Although she drew it from memory, she felt that her accuracy rate was 85%.
She is not nearsighted, and the last time she took a test was when her driver's license expired and she was getting a new one.
So it is a vivid memory.
After drawing the eye chart, she ordered Lin Song to stand five meters away with it, and then handed Zhu'er a round fan: "Zhu'er, you just stand here. Later, use the fan to cover your right eye first, then your left eye, and then follow my orders, okay?"
"Okay, young master!" Zhu'er was very excited.
"No need to close your eyes, just cover them with a fan." Lin Zhiyi reminded.
"yes."
Lin Zhiyi walked over to Lin Song, holding a new brush without ink in his hand. He pointed the end of the brush at an E on the second line of the eye chart: "Zhu'er, which direction does it open?"
Zhu'er naturally saw it clearly. Although she didn't recognize the word, she understood the word "opening" and said, "It faces right."
"Great! How about this?"
"Downward."
"this?"
"To the right..."
Lin Zhiyi asked several questions in succession, and Zhu'er could still see clearly until the second to last line.
"Okay, switch eyes."
This time Zhu'er also saw the second to last line.
She couldn't see the last line clearly.
It's understandable. After all, it's a crude version of the eye chart, not formal enough, and not bright enough.
It’s amazing that Zhu’er can read the second to last line!
"Zhu'er's eyesight is excellent!" Lin Zhiyi announced the test results. After the three cheered, she said, "Okay, it's Lin Song's turn next!"
"Yes!" Lin Song happily exchanged places with Zhu'er.
After testing, it turned out that Lin Song could see the third to last row.
He reads at night, so he uses his eyes relatively more.
There are no electric lights here, so it hurts your eyes.
"Master, you take the test too!"
"good."
Lin Zhiyi also saw the third-to-last line. She could see some of the second-to-last line clearly, but not others, so she accepted the "results" she had seen from the third-to-last line.
Not excellent, but good.
After dinner, Lin Zhiyi was just about to go find Lin Zhihua when Youyi brought Jingyue's homework.
Lin Zhiyi solemnly took it and pulled Youyi to test his eyesight. As expected of a martial artist, he could actually see the last line! Amazing!
Yuichi was very interested and asked boldly, "Prince Consort, could you give me a replica? I want to test it for Yusan and the others."
Lin Zhiyi said readily, "No problem!" She said to Lin Song, "Lin Song, copy this picture of mine and make a replica!"
"Yes! Young Master!" Lin Song accepted the order with great interest.
Youyi: "Thank you, Prince Consort!" He bowed to Lin Song again, "Thank you, little brother."
Lin Song was flattered: "You are welcome, sir!"
That night, the secret guards started a round of vision tests, and... an internal competition for fame.
Youqi has better eyesight and wants the title of Youwu.
This is also in the order of good or bad eyesight.
Youwu's eyesight was a little poor, and he could barely see the fourth row from the bottom, and was looked down upon by his brothers behind him.
However, he finally used force to intimidate and retained his fifth place title.
This eye chart was circulated among the secret guards and was finally presented to Princess Jingyue by Youyi - and he reported in detail how the prince consort used this eye chart.
Jing Yue looked down at the strange eye chart spread out on the table. Her eyes softened at first, and then a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
She just confessed her identity today, and she can't hold it in anymore?
This method of measuring eye contact... is it the method used in her world?
It's really novel and interesting.
"Yuichi, help me take the test as well."
"yes."
