Chapter 283 Damn Dou Zan!
Qin Zhaoyue looked down at the hall and gave a reserved smile.
"Thank you for your hard work, Master Pei. The test questions are well-designed and the answers are even more brilliant. You are worthy of being the top scholar."
Pei Xueqi felt relieved, his tense shoulders finally relaxed, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.
Policy essays were his strong point, and during this period of time he worked in the Ministry of Ceremonies, he was able to read case files from previous years, which benefited him greatly.
Although the time is a bit tight, I am still somewhat confident about the topic I have come up with.
"Your Highness, thank you for your kind words. I cannot thank you enough for your hard work." His voice was steady and neither too fast nor too slow.
"This is my responsibility. Compared with your life-saving grace, it is nothing."
"Hey~~~" Qin Zhaoyue dragged out the last word and waved her slender hand.
"Mr. Pei, your words are quite formal. Please don't take them to heart."
She paused, her tone relaxed and casual:
"That day the flood was overwhelming, and I myself was swept away and lost, unable to protect myself.
It just happened that you were nearby and grabbed a handful, it's nothing to worry about."
Let it go, and let me take it to heart!
Even when he was in danger of losing himself, he was still thinking about saving his life, but the key point was that he wasted a lot of merit points afterwards.
The more lightly I say it, the more I want him to remember it deeply, so that he can be more careful when he writes for me in the future!
Pei Xueqiao was touched. Who said that the Sixth Prince was uneducated?
He was obviously studying the test questions seriously, but the way he paused and thought from time to time showed that he was a talented person!
What's more, she saved her life without asking for anything in return. Her character is so noble. Who is attacking her?
Pei Xueqiao stood up and bowed deeply, "Thank you, Your Highness."
Tsk... Yinzhe, who was hiding in the dark, curled his lips.
It must be Xiaoliu who asked him to predict the questions. His eyes are dark and bruised, and it can be seen that he has been staying up late.
Is that all you're thanking me for?
Couldn't he hear that Xiaoliu's words were meant to threaten him to repay the favor?
I don't know how Pei Xiang raised me to develop such a personality...
In other words, Qin Zhaoyue didn't hear her inner voice, otherwise she could be summed up in two words: green tea.
Qin Zhaoyue was in a good mood and just treated it as a way to coax the silly boy.
If you guess the question correctly, the benefits are still to come.
If it doesn't work, I can still find a way to let the silly boy steal some of his father's calligraphy and paintings or something, so I won't lose anything anyway.
green tea?
When I read books before, I just wanted to kill the green tea in the book. Now that I have experienced it myself, I can only say...
Oh my god, it smells so good!
Besides, didn't she rescue him from the flood? Didn't she spend her merit points to save his life?
Why not repay such a real favor?
Liu Suxin stood solemnly with his clothes lowered, but his heart was in turmoil.
She could never have imagined that the Sixth Prince had such a relationship with the Prime Minister's son.
Saving lives in the flood is a great favor!
Having been in the palace for a long time, she immediately thought about many things. If she could get the support of the Prime Minister's Mansion, then...
After leaving the Sixth Princess's Mansion for so many years, when I came back I found that she seemed like a different person.
It’s not that it’s not infuriating anymore, this part is still the same.
His Majesty not only sent out errands frequently, but also bestowed upon him an entire group of Qingluan Guards.
The entire mansion is loose on the outside but tight on the inside, and the entire backyard is like an iron barrel. The servants are even more cautious in their words and actions, and dare not deceive their superiors or hide anything from their subordinates.
He had no dealings with any officials, and the first person he had dealings with was the Prime Minister's residence.
Aunt Liu's heart skipped a beat. She had initially invited her here just as a precaution to avoid any gossip.
But can you tell her openly about something like saving your life in front of her?
On the long street outside the mansion, a carriage was parked two or three hundred steps away from the gate.
The appearance is not luxurious and there are no family patterns.
At this moment, a maid came quickly, lifted the curtain and slipped in.
"Master, Miss, it's... it's Master Pei!"
The people in the carriage were none other than Qin Zhaoyue's second uncle Wen Mingke and her cousin Wen Tingwan.
I spent a lot of money to get the exam questions, but I still didn't get any news.
Seeing that the second princess of the Shufeng Dynasty was about to enter the capital, I had planned to go to her house to ask about her today, but I ran into someone else visiting.
Wen Mingke clenched his fists. Pei Xueqiao, it was indeed Pei Xueqiao!
The bet was right, Zhao Yue was not lying to him.
Huh... I breathed a sigh of relief. I've invested so much money, and there's been no news in these days. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't worried.
Today, the first, third and fourth wives were very sarcastic to him, and even the old lady was urging him to hurry up. Now he finally felt relieved.
"Wan'er, this is a godsend!"
"Father, please calm down. We are only visiting Sister Zhaoyue's house today. It has nothing to do with anything else."
Wen Mingke quickly calmed down. Otherwise, why would he have such high hopes for his daughter?
"Yes, today is just a visit."
If I enter the mansion at this time, it would be difficult to speak in front of Zhao Yue.
Thinking of this, he immediately ordered the servant following the carriage:
"Keep your eyes peeled! If we see anyone leaving the house, we'll move immediately. We have to be fast!"
Then he looked at his daughter and said, "Tingwan, instead of meeting in the princess's mansion, why not meet at the door? What do you think?"
Wen Tingwan lowered her eyes, "It's all up to my father."
"well!"
Ting Wan clenched her hands in her sleeves, but her face remained calm.
The Wen family fell into poverty and didn't even have a decent official position.
She had no choice but to find another way and gain the reputation of a talented woman so that she could participate in some literary gatherings.
Once in a while, she saw the number one scholar of the Pei family from afar, and the girl was so excited that she could only bury it deep in her heart.
But as he got older, even his father could hardly suppress the rumors in the clan. Who knew that the opportunity would come so unexpectedly.
Under pressure from His Majesty, talented women in the capital all took the imperial examinations, and with Master Pei right before their eyes...
Wen Tingwan was not as indifferent as she appeared. She had just been waiting for this opportunity for too long and she couldn't miss it this time!
On the other side, the discussion about the test questions was quickly finished.
Pei Xueqiao had intended to stay a little longer under the pretext of sparring, but His Highness had no doubts at all.
Could there be any doubt? All those words had flowed out of Qin Zhaoyue's mind, not a single one remained...
Pei Xueqi was not on vacation today, he just took a leave.
They were both present when Helian Chaolu was received, and were also among the people who received the Second Princess Shufeng later. It was reasonable for them to pay a visit, so they shamelessly came here.
During this short delay, the old lady had glanced at him frequently.
Sighing inwardly, Pei Xueqiao had no choice but to stand up and say goodbye, even though he was extremely reluctant.
Qin Zhaoyue naturally would not try to keep him, and still sent Mo Yi to see him off.
As soon as the people left, she immediately tilted her body. It was quite hard for her to pretend.
I caught a glimpse of the figure standing solemnly beside me and thought that this old lady was still of some use.
If she hadn't been shaking here, Pei would probably have hesitated for a while.
"Thank you for your hard work, Mammy."
Liu Suxin hurriedly said that it was her duty and ignored whether the Sixth Prince sat down or not.
Seeing that she was about to leave, she didn't want to cause any trouble. Knowing that she was an outsider, she bowed and left.
Qin Zhaoyue put away the test paper, handed it to Suimo, and turned around to send someone to deliver it to the Wen family.
After performing a play, I suddenly had an appetite. Otherwise, why is it said that drinking green tea is also a strenuous job?
We were discussing what to have for lunch when Mo came back.
"So soon?"
"Your Highness," Mo Yi was just seeing someone off and then ran all the way back, "Wen Tingwan and Master Pei ran into each other at the gate of the mansion."
"Oh?" Qin Zhaoyue's eyes lit up, and she stood up, picked up her skirt and ran away.
He ran out two steps and quickly turned back, "Yinzhe, where are the people? There's some gossip to read, hurry up!"
The hidden sting that moves quietly:!
Damn Douzhe!
