Chapter 80 Asking for Reward
Ling Qingyan counted the days on her fingers as she waited for the results to be announced.
Only one day left.
That day, Mu Xianzhi came up to him.
His expression remained calm, “Your Highness, I have something to tell you alone.”
Mu Xianzhi rarely came to Yaohua Palace to talk to her alone. Ling Qingyan guessed that there must be something important, so she sent away the servants, including Pei Wuyou who had just shown her the words he had written.
"Okay, sister, call me if you need anything. I won't go too far." Pei Wuyou answered Ling Qingyan with a smile and a good look.
Ling Qingyan said "hmm", and Pei Wuyou turned to face Mu Xianzhi, who could be considered his ally. The smile on his lips suddenly faded, and his eyes revealed vigilance and undisguised annoyance.
In a flash, their eyes met and they passed each other.
With a "bang", Pei Wuyou closed the door, leaving the two of them with space to talk alone.
"What happened? Why did you suddenly come to Yaohua Palace?" Ling Qingyan asked.
"Chen Mansheng's test paper was replaced by someone." Mu Xianzhi said calmly.
"What?!" Ling Qingyan couldn't control her voice and spoke a little louder.
"Sister, what's wrong?" Pei Wuyou, who was guarding the door, immediately asked anxiously.
"Your Highness really has a good dog." Mu Xianzhi commented.
"It's okay, you don't have to wait outside. Xilan is outside." Ling Qingyan said tactfully.
"It's okay, sister. I have nothing to do, so I can just chat with Sister Xilan."
Xi Lan, who was also guarding the door, looked at him speechlessly.
Pei Wuyou sat outside the hall leaning against the door, while Xi Lan stood on the other side.
Mu Xianzhi looked at Ling Qingyan leisurely, with a sneer on his face, as if confirming what he had just said.
"Then let's keep our voices down." Ling Qingyan made a "hush" gesture.
"Isn't it said that the female officials' assessment is more strictly supervised? How could this happen?" Ling Qingyan frowned.
This kind of behavior of replacing other people's scores with papers is really hateful!
"It is indeed very strict, but some people in high positions can indeed drive bold people to help do some dirty things. Your Highness, please think about it carefully." Mu Xianzhi was unhurried and even had the leisure to teach Ling Qingyan a lesson!
"Ling Qian?" Ling Qingyan frowned and confirmed the answer with the person in front of her.
"Right." Mu Xianzhi's face was full of doting, which was completely different from Ling Qingyan's slightly angry expression.
Ling Qingyan: "I originally thought she was just stupid and conceited. How could she do such a shameless thing?! Isn't she very confident in her abilities?"
Mu Xianzhi looked at Ling Qingyan's angry expression and thought it was so cute that he couldn't help but smile even more.
"Are you going to sit back and do nothing?" Ling Qingyan looked at Mu Xianzhi and asked.
If Mu Xianzhi ignored her, she would go to the emperor. She had seen how much effort Chen Mansheng had put into the female official assessment, and she would never allow that idiot Ling Qian to replace Mansheng's position.
"I was planning to sit back and do nothing." A smile graced his face, the corners of his moon-white clothes fluttering in the wind. "But thinking that he's your highness's close friend, I have to help him out no matter what."
"Your Majesty is aware that Chen Mansheng's paper has been replaced. Ling Qian and her mother have been confined to the palace and are not allowed to leave for any reason. The timeframe is undetermined."
Mu Xianzhi crossed his arms and looked down to see the girl's reaction.
The girl's clenched fists finally loosened, and her expression changed from suffocating to cheerful and cheerful, with a feeling of great satisfaction.
Seeing the joy and satisfaction on the girl's face, Mu Xianzhi's mood also improved a little.
My heart was beating fast.
When she was happy, he was happy too, and his emotions were influenced by the girl.
He thought, this is probably what it feels like to truly like someone.
Ling Qingyan exhaled heavily and felt relaxed. She raised her eyes slightly and looked up at Mu Xianzhi, with the corners of her lips raised. She hooked Mu Xianzhi's chin with Bai's fingers, looking a bit like she was betraying her teacher and ancestors.
"Then why did Master Mu come to see me in such a hurry? Could it be that he simply wanted to see me?" There was a smile in the girl's eyes, as if they contained infinite starlight.
Mu Xianzhi looked at the girl's bold actions and knew that she was in a good mood. How could he let down a beautiful woman who was teasing him?
So he took a step further and closed the distance between him and the girl.
The girl tried to withdraw her hand that was hooked under his chin, but the man didn't do as she wished and put her hand on his face.
His eyes seemed to be filled with emotion, and those aggressive eyes stared straight at Ling Qingyan: "How can I not be anxious to see His Highness?"
"I have solved such a big problem for Your Highness, how can I not ask for some reward?" Mu Xianzhi's eyes became deeper and deeper, and his gaze wandered on the girl's plump and delicate lips.
Harm, man.
Ling Qingyan understood exactly what he wanted. Mu Xianzhi really made her feel happy, so Ling Qingyan glanced furtively in the direction of the door.
Her bedroom was large and spacious, and was some distance from the door. As long as their voices were not particularly loud, no one at the door could hear them.
The key point is that Pei Wuyou is not far away. Wouldn’t it be dangerous to kiss Mu Xianzhi at such a close distance?
What if Pei Wuyou comes in?
What if we bump into each other?
His love value is already full, and Mu Xianzhi is now at ninety. The closer it gets to the end, the more they need to play steadily and win.
Yes, be steady and don’t be too optimistic and open the champagne halfway.
She was just about to tell Mu Xianzhi that she would give him a reward in a few days, but before she could say anything, Mu Xianzhi said, "I'll ask for it myself." Then he put one hand around her waist, held her head with the other, and kissed her deeply without warning.
“Hmm…”
Mu Xianzhi's kiss was so fast that it didn't give her any chance to breathe or react. It was so fierce and intense.
He turned around and pressed her against the mahogany pillar, protecting her head with one hand. With her body supported, his kiss became more intense.
He kissed her very passionately, and Ling Qingyan was forced to respond to his kiss. Her whole body was tense, and she kept paying attention to the movement at the door from time to time.
Pei Wuyou didn't know what that bastard Mu Xianzhi was talking to his sister for so long. He was very anxious and frustrated. He even didn't let go of the ants on the ground and crushed them to death.
"Sister?" Pei Wuyou couldn't help but call out.
Ling Qingyan suddenly widened her eyes and signaled Mu Xianzhi to stop, but Mu Xianzhi had never heard of it before. The usually cold and dignified tutor kept asking for more from her.
"Sister?!" Seeing that Ling Qingyan did not respond, Pei Wuyou shouted even more anxiously. This time he stood directly at the door, as if he was going to push it open and rush in the next moment.
The thought that she must not let Pei Wuyou see her filled her mind. Ling Qingyan used all her strength and stepped hard on Mu Xianzhi's foot, pushing him away from her.
"Is there something wrong with you calling me sister?" Ling Qingyan tried her best to calm her breathing and responded softly.
"Nothing, I just saw that Master Mu had been in there for so long and hadn't come out, so I was worried that something might have happened to my sister."
Xi Lan glanced at him from the side. What could possibly happen when His Highness was alone with Tutor Mu?
Tutor Mu is a man of noble character, and unlike Pei Wuyou, he doesn't stick to His Highness every day.
Xi Lan felt that Mu Xianzhi was a man of high character and noble character, but Pei Wuyou, who knew his past, was quite worried about his conduct.
Sisters should stay away from people who are extremely inferior and hypocritical.
"It doesn't hurt at all." Mu Xianzhi laughed. He had never seen Ling Qingyan step on his foot so hard in such a hurry.
It looks like a little rabbit biting people in a hurry, so cute.
"This is the first time His Highness has touched me."
