So they gave the carriage to Fu Rongxin.
Xue Zhiyi, Xue Runing, and Qiuyun Suyue were brought to the carriage where Huo Wuyou was.
Huo Wuyou lifted the carriage curtain and said to the inside, "Sui Yunlang, come out and ride the horse for a while."
The people inside were a little impatient: "Can you be more peaceful every day?"
Seeing this, he simply leaned half of his body in and pulled the person out.
The man was grabbed and asked, "Huo Wuyou, are you crazy?"
Before he finished speaking, he noticed Xue Zhiyi and Xue Runing looking at him. Immediately, a flash of embarrassment crossed his rather gentle face. With Huo Wuyou still holding his collar, he greeted them: "Hello, both of you."
Huo Wuyou carried him out of the car without saying anything, and then said to Xue Zhiyi, "Please do as you please."
Xue Zhiyi blinked and said nothing: How presumptuous of you to sit in this car.
The car was finally vacated and the four of them got in.
The car was spacious and warm, with a pleasant scent of sandalwood. The carvings inside had patterns that were very characteristic of the Northwest. It was indeed much more comfortable than their own car.
At this moment, Xue Zhiyi did not hear the two people on the horses whispering outside the car.
Sui Yunlang nudged Huo Wuyou with his elbow: "What's wrong with you?"
Huo Wuyou stared blankly ahead, feeling guilty. "What?"
"Don't play dead." Sui Yunlang said, "What's wrong with you today? You're like a peacock with its tail spread out. Ever since the chuiwan game, you've been actively approaching Miss Xue. Just now, when you saw her talking to a scholar, you insisted on getting close to her. Could it be that you're..."
Huo Wuyou tutted his words. "What is it? I think her actions as a member of the Xue family are suspicious. I'm also worried that with the Spring Examination approaching, she might be trying to use the candidate to do something. Naturally, I have to keep a close eye on her."
"You'd better." Sui Yunlang tutted and lowered his voice: "Don't blame me for not reminding you. After the New Year, spring is here and flowers are blooming. Even if you have some restless thoughts, don't set your sights on her. The Xue family is a party of Prince Gong, and she is Prince Gong's young princess who has not yet married. You..."
Huo Wuyou suddenly pushed him and said, "Shut up."
Sui Yunlang was speechless: "You don't know how to appreciate kindness. I'm just worried that you'll be blinded by beauty and do something stupid, which will delay important matters."
Seeing Huo Wuyou still glaring at him, he said, "Let me tell you, anyone who gets caught up in a relationship will have their brains lost like they've fallen into a well. There's no hope... Hey, slow down!"
Huo Wuyou rode his horse to the front of the carriage, leaving Sui Yunlang behind.
The carriage stopped outside the Xue Mansion. When Xue Zhiyi got off, he met Fu Rongxin's angry eyes.
She was shivering in the blanket, but she still stared at Xue Zhiyi.
Xue Zhiyi had no idea what was wrong with her brain. She had provoked Ge Yuanhui and ended up being retaliated against. Now she had a roundabout way of blaming herself, Xue Zhiyi.
Xue Zhiyi still felt that he was implicated by her.
Huo Wuyou also got off the horse. He yawned and said, "Isn't it kind of me to send you here?"
Facing him, Xue Zhiyi finally smiled and bowed to him: "Thank you, Marquis Lin'an, for today."
Huo Wuyou's mood seemed to have improved. He chuckled, "Don't be too grateful to me. There's no need to invite me in for tea to express your gratitude. I've always been so enthusiastic."
When did she say she wanted to invite him in?
However, she was also afraid that if she continued to talk like this, Huo Wuyou would just walk in, so she said, "It's getting late and the dew is heavy. Zhiyi will not keep you any longer, Your Majesty. It's late at night, Your Majesty, please take your time."
After saying this, he bowed again and then went in with the servants of the Xue family who came to greet him outside.
Looking at Xue Zhiyi's back, Huo Wuyou took a deep breath of the cold night air, and the stuffy feeling in his heart dissipated without him knowing when.
Sui Yunlang clicked his tongue: "Still watching?"
Huo Wuyou came back to his senses and got on his horse: "Let's go back to the mansion."
With a muffled groan, Sui Yunlang climbed onto the carriage. Looking at Huo Wuyou, who was smiling brightly on the horse's back, he said, "Look at you, you look like a peacock spreading its feathers. You're really doomed!"
…
Hongyingzhai.
The candlelight was dim, and Xue Tingliu's face was frighteningly gloomy.
His fingers clenched the paper, making a crackling sound.
Today, he was tricked by someone. Who was this person? His political enemy, or perhaps, his enemy?
Looking at the dark room, Xue Zhiyi's hateful face inexplicably appeared in his mind.
For some reason, strange things like this always happen wherever she is, or... is this related to her?
Thinking of this, he read the article carefully again. It was indeed a criticism of current social ills and had brilliant literary talent. The handwriting was as smooth as flowing water, with Yan's strength and Liu's bones. The whole article was completed in one go without any omissions.
The author of this article is quite talented.
He went to Chunji originally to recruit talents for His Royal Highness Prince Cheng, but unfortunately, he was replaced by this talented person today.
It would be time to ask the Imperial College to look for the handwriting. He was also very curious about who could have written this essay.
…
Qingyunzhai.
When Fu Rongxin came, Xue Zhentong was looking worried.
"Uncle." In front of Xue Zhentong, Fu Rongxin was always considerate and not as coquettish as when she was in front of Fu Ling.
"Is my uncle worried about my cousin's Spring Examination?"
Even though his relationship with Fu Ling is now distant, Fu Rongxin is still his daughter and his hope for becoming the father-in-law of the emperor, so naturally he loves her.
His expression softened slightly, and he gestured with his eyes to dismiss the waiter. He said, "I've personally read his essay, and it's still not very impressive. I'm afraid his chances of making it onto the list this time are still slim."
