Chapter 459 Shen Muyang Returns to the Capital
Shen Muyang nodded.
Go!
A few years ago, because they were young, the teacher said they should take a few years to mature, so Cheng'an and the others didn't take the exam.
This is the first time everyone has gone this year. Although the exam will be held on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, it's not too stressful since it's being held in the county.
"If Ningbao could come along, I wouldn't be so nervous."
Ning Bao glanced at Mu Chengrong.
"I can't predict the exam questions, so whether I follow along or not shouldn't have much impact on your exam."
Mu Chengrong gave Ning Bao a disapproving look.
"How could it not have an impact? You're our little lucky star. With our little lucky star by my side, I'll definitely have divine help during the exam."
Ning Bao snorted coldly.
"Tch! I remember I was with you when you first took the imperial examination, and you still failed!"
"That was an accident! That was an accident!"
…………
That night, just as Ningbao was about to go to sleep, she sensed someone in the yard. Lingling, who was lying next to her, looked up and glanced into the yard.
"Oh dear, a handsome young man has come to sneak into the master's boudoir at night."
Should I go and chase him away?
Ning Bao was stunned for a moment.
"Handsome young man? Who? Brother Mu Yang?"
Ning Bao got up and walked towards the door as she spoke.
"Brother Mu Yang!"
Seeing Shen Muyang and Ning Bao run over happily,
"Why is Brother Mu Yang here so late?"
Shen Muyang lovingly helped Ningbao straighten her clothes and said softly,
"There were too many people during the day, so I didn't have a chance to talk to you properly. I just wanted to come and see if you were asleep."
Ning Bao looked at Shen Muyang carefully.
"Brother Muyang, is something on your mind?"
Shen Muyang sighed softly, looking at Ning Bao with reluctance.
"I'm going back to Beijing..."
"Back to Beijing? When?" Ning Bao was stunned when she heard that Shen Muyang was going back to Beijing. She looked at Shen Muyang seriously.
After several years of recuperation, Shen Muyang's health has fully recovered. From their correspondence, it is known that Shen Muyang works very hard.
Not only did he study very hard in school, but he also did not slack off in martial arts.
Now 13 years old, Shen Muyang has grown taller and stronger, and looks not only handsome but also quite dashing.
Shen Muyang stared blankly at Ning Bao without saying anything. He took out a jade pendant from his waist and put it around Ning Bao's neck.
"I don't know when I'll be able to return from Beijing this time. If possible, I hope Ningbao won't forget me."
I will write to you often, and please remember to reply when you are not busy.
I won't be staying in the capital for long..."
Ning Bao looked at Shen Muyang with a puzzled expression...
Shen Muyang carried Ning Bao and leaped onto the roof. He gently embraced Ning Bao beside him, his long arms softly holding her.
"You know that our Marquis of Yongyi's family is originally a military family. I don't want to be like my father, a Marquis of Yongyi who can't lead troops into battle and has never been on the battlefield."
In our Longyuan State, there is a rule that boys can join the army at the age of 13.
So I'm going to join the army. The main reason I'm going back this time is to see my mother off.
I originally wanted my mother to stay here, so I could feel more at ease.
But in recent years, those people from the Marquis's mansion in the capital have been so arrogant that they've forgotten about my mother, the Lady of the Courageous Marquis.
So she wanted to go back and reorganize things. To be honest, I didn't want her to go back at all. Those women in the backyard look gentle and weak, but they're all ruthless.
...................
Shen Muyang seemed to be stating a statement, or perhaps pouring out his heart, while Ning Bao listened quietly the whole time…
Feeling that the little girl beside him had fallen asleep, Shen Muyang looked at her with affection, then gently picked her up and flew off the roof.
He gently carried Ningbao into the room. Lingling opened her eyes and glanced at him.
"Ha! You actually knew to bring them back. I thought you two were going to spend the whole night basking in the stars on the roof."
Shen Muyang glanced at Lingling but wasn't angry; instead, he looked at her in a flattering manner.
"I know you are intelligent and capable."
From now on, I'll have to trouble you to take good care of her.
This girl seems intelligent, brave, and resourceful, but she's actually too kind-hearted and easily bullied..."
"Ha!" Lingling couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
"Was she being bullied?"
Young Master, can we please not speak against our conscience?
From ancient times to the present...
Lingling paused for a moment. It originally wanted to say that it had never seen its master being bullied in tens of thousands of years.
But it seems these things can't be said here...
"Anyway, my master is very powerful and won't be bullied by anyone, but he can be a little silly sometimes."
Shen Muyang nodded.
"Well, I'll have to ask you to take good care of Ningbao no matter what. If there's anything you need me to do in the future, just let me know."
"Really?" Lingling was instantly wide awake upon hearing Shen Muyang's words. She jumped up and looked at Shen Muyang with great enthusiasm.
Is this true? And will it always be true?
Shen Muyang paused for a moment, then nodded without hesitation.
"It's true! It's effective forever!"
"Hahahaha!" Lingling laughed silently.
"Okay! Don't worry! I will take good care of my master, and I guarantee that when I see you next time, not a single hair will be missing."
Ouch!
From now on, it can walk sideways!
Although it used to be able to walk sideways!
But they'll become even more reckless in the future...
Three days later, Gu Yunrou and Shen Muyang left Chuyun Village, and Bai Ming also returned to the capital with them.
He was the young master of the Bai family. His family had written to him many times, urging him to return. Although he didn't want to go back, he had taken on their identity and been born into their body, so he still had to bear the responsibilities.
Ning Bao stood on a large rock on the back mountain, watching the convoy slowly depart. The Taoist priest Sanqing, with a foxtail grass dangling from his mouth, sneakily approached Ning Bao.
"My little apprentice, are you reluctant to part with your childhood sweetheart?"
"What childhood sweetheart or childhood friend? I just can't bear to part with my senior brother!"
"Tch! Your master here has been through this. That kid surnamed Chen, at such a young age, already knows how to fawn over you all the time. He's obviously up to no good..."
Ningbao glanced at her master.
“Master, I heard from my uncle that you never married when you were young.”
