Looking at the face that appeared from the carriage window, An Xin raised the corners of his lips and said in a flat tone: "It's been a long time."
Liu Mingjie saw the woman in front of him, whose face seemed to have not changed much from three years ago, and narrowed his eyes.
Since when did he start to hate her in his heart?
Perhaps it was because he failed the imperial examination three years ago and had spent all the money that the Wang family had sponsored him to come to Beijing to take the exam, leaving him with no other way to go.
I thought she was so knowledgeable and intelligent.
Why did she hide her shortcomings when he was studying at Wanhua Academy, looking so introverted and cowardly, making people dislike her?
If he had discovered her talent earlier, how could he have left so decisively?
He would definitely follow her father's wishes, help cancel the Zhao family's marriage, and marry her to this woman who could help him with the imperial examination.
He would definitely be able to pass the imperial examination and get the first place in the imperial examination, and would be able to leave a mark in the history of Daqian. What an honor that would be.
Liu Mingjie transferred all his failures in the scientific examination to this imaginary result.
Seeing that several students taught by An Xin are now doing well in official circles, it is no wonder that he hates An Xin in his twisted heart.
"Tingshu Anshan is now an official, congratulations!" Liu Mingjie said this with gritted teeth and hatred, feeling unwilling.
An Xin smiled and ignored the man who had jealousy written all over his face.
When Liu Mingjie saw An Xin like this, he thought that she knew his current identity and looked down on what he had done, and his eyes became even gloomier.
"Humph! Why are you dawdling? Why don't you start the carriage?"
The coachman was scolded and felt resentful. Just now the man had told him to keep pace with the carriage next to him, but now he was ignored and was blaming him for driving slowly.
He just relies on the fact that his princess is still willing to take a few more glances at him. If he is disliked one day, he will be worse than a groom like himself.
An Xin watched Liu Mingjie's carriage rattling past. There was no contempt and disdain in his eyes as he thought. Instead, there were eyes as calm and clear as autumn water.
Everyone chooses a different path. After Liu Mingjie failed the imperial examination three years ago, he was unwilling to return to a small place like Lin'an County. He lay dormant for three years before coming to Beijing to take the exam.
Instead, after spending all his money, he was guided by someone with ulterior motives to become the lover of a famous absurd princess in the capital.
Commonly known as a mian shou.
He is not related to An Xin, so An Xin doesn't care what he does. How could she have any opinions or emotions towards him?
I can only say that Liu Mingjie takes himself too seriously.
Ever since An Xin was disturbed by Liu Mingjie, Liu Boxing and Yuchi Yi rode their horses, one on the left and one on the right, to protect her two carriage windows and not let anyone get close.
An Xin saw many families from the capital city who had made plans to go on an outing together, and they were also riding in horse-drawn carriages heading towards the capital city in Putuo Mountain.
On the way, An Xin also found many women sitting in carriages. When passing by them, they lifted a corner of the carriage curtain and secretly looked at them.
An Xin saw Yuchi Yi and several other young men riding on horses. They seemed to be looking straight ahead and serious, but if you looked closely, you could still find that their ears were red.
"Young man!" An Xin said with a teasing smile.
Yuchi Yi and others who were guarding on both sides of the carriage window turned around and saw the playful smile on the lips of their female teacher, and their cheeks became even redder.
"Boring." Yuchi Yi was looked at with a red face and angrily rode his horse forward towards Mount Putuo.
An Xin paused, then burst into laughter.
"What's there to be shy about? It's your blessing that the girls are willing to look at you a few more times. You're being pretentious."
Hearing the unbridled laughter behind him, Yuchi Yi rode his horse even faster.
"Teacher, I...let's go ahead and explore the way." After saying that, Gao Tai and Chen Qibao also rode their horses to chase after Yuchi Yi.
An Xin complained: "It's true that men can't be kept when they grow up. They get shy after being looked at by girls for a few times."
"I...I didn't." Liu Boxing said embarrassedly.
An Xin leaned against the carriage window and rolled his eyes, "You didn't, I can only say that you are a straight man, and as your teacher, I am more worried.
You are so ignorant of romance that you don't even blush when a little girl stares at you like this. I am afraid that you will not be able to find a wife in the future."
Liu Boxing turned his head and saw Qingfeng and Mingyue, two maids, sitting in the carriage with An Xin. Hearing his own headmaster teasing him, he pursed his lips and tried hard to hold back his laughter.
His tough face suddenly turned red like a monkey's butt, and he quickly imitated the other junior brothers who ran away, saying, "I... I'll go explore the way too."
He rode on a horse and disappeared in a flash.

"Young people just have no self-control." An Xin shook her head as she looked at the people running away and continued her complaints.
Not far behind them, sitting in the carriage, Li Ziyu and Leng Xiangbai, with their angular lips slightly curled, listened with a smile on their brows as their unreliable headmaster forced several of his fellow apprentices to flee on horseback in embarrassment.
Leng Xiangbai frowned slightly, not knowing what he was thinking of. "Brother Li, our little Shan has not changed much in appearance over the years. Is this really okay?"
Li Ziyu paused, raised his head, narrowed his eyes slightly, and exuded a dangerous aura. He said in a light tone: "I don't want to hear such words from our brothers in the future."
"But as time goes by, this is something that can't be hidden after all." Leng Xiangbai said indifferently.
The two looked at each other in silence, and both saw the worry in each other's eyes.
An Xin, who didn't pay much attention to her appearance, didn't even notice that her appearance didn't seem to have changed much over time since she traveled through time five years ago.
She also didn't realize that she used the life value produced by the system, which not only increased her lifespan, but also improved her physical condition and made her appearance age more slowly than other people.
Now I am happily looking at the road to Putuo Mountain. The scenery is really beautiful.
I heard that this clear river surrounding the foot of Putuo Mountain was formed by the water flowing down from a large waterfall on the mountain. The winding stream is elegant, quiet and beautiful.
Looking up, you can see the deep valley, beautiful mountains and pleasant air.
It was a neither too cold nor too hot time, and the flowers on the mountain were in bud, so there were an unusually large number of people coming here for a picnic during this period. An Xin and his companions stopped their carriage on a flat meadow at the foot of the mountain.
There are several big trees nearby that block the slowly rising sun. It is also not far from the crystal clear river, making it a great place for fun and rest.
Yuchi Yi and his companions rode fast and arrived early, and found it before others.
"Our princess likes this place, you should go somewhere else."
As soon as An Xin and the others got off the carriage, they saw Yuchi Yi, Liu Boxing and others. Their eyes were fixed on a nanny who was wearing a dark red double-breasted waistcoat embroidered with dark green lace.
Behind him were two pretty maids, who were driving them away in a haughty manner.
