Chapter 56 Impurity of Purpose

Shen Zhiyi knew about the relationship between Yan Lin and Jiang Xuening, after all, Yan Lin had specifically mentioned it to her during the selection of accompanying students, and she even took the opportunity to tease her for a while.

Now, surprisingly, they have completely distanced themselves from Ning Ning's relationship?

Seeing the expressions of these two people, she was puzzled and even more inexplicably angry. She was very aggrieved by Jiang Xuening and was about to take a step forward, saying, "Yanlin, what are you doing?"

"His Royal Highness the Long Royal Highness Princess."

Yan Lin was already feeling uncomfortable enough, and Jiang Xuening was afraid that Shen Zhiyi would say anything embarrassing to him. She quickly reached out and gently grabbed her, her lips curved, and she smiled as if relieved.

"His Royal Highness Yanping made a casual joke when he was young, it's not a big deal."

"But what I want to say is not..."

Not the King of Yanping.

Shen Zhiyi was pulled by her and stopped. Just as she was about to argue, she turned her eyes and saw a hint of sincere request in Jiang Xuening's seemingly calm eyes. Although she couldn't figure out why no matter what, the full questioning couldn't be repeated.

After all, she doesn't know what happened between them.

Immediately, with a stern expression, following Jiang Xuening's recent words, he said to King Yanping, "If you talk nonsense in the future, let me tell you how to go to the emperor's side!"

"..."

King Yanping was simply stunned.

Until Shen Zhiyi pulled Jiang Xuening away with everyone, he didn't understand that he was just saying a word, and it wasn't a joke. Why was he suddenly scolded so badly.

Princess Keyang has always been domineering, and he dare not speak back.

Seeing the person leave, he muttered, "Really, what's going on? What's the relationship with me?"

Yan Lin remained silent and lowered her eyes as she walked forward.

The few people accompanying him did not notice much of his abnormality. Although they all felt that Yan Lin had been silent recently, he appeared more stable than before, fading away his youthful youthfulness and showing a maturity of gradually understanding the world.

So it was only assumed that he would undergo some changes in his coronal ceremony, without much thought.

Although the Prince of Yanping was puzzled by his relationship with Jiang Xuening, he didn't ask much in front of the others, so he had to hang his head and suppress his face, and go to the Fengchen Hall with them.

At this moment, Xie Wei was still staring at the spot where the little white cat had stepped on the windowsill in the side hall, with two long eyebrows slightly twisted, as if thinking of something tricky.

However, when everyone came in, their faces were as usual.

With a light ink thread between his fingers, he turned his head and saw Yan Lin standing next to King Yanping. He only asked, "Why did everyone come?"

Everyone remained silent.

Someone stood behind and kicked King Yanping.

Wang Lishi of Yanping didn't stand firm and stumbled forward a few steps, revealing a big red face in Xie Wei's sight. He spoke shyly and said, "Yes, the student listened to the teacher's lecture on strategy a few days ago. After returning, my father asked the student to write an essay on the topic of 'entering school'. The student has been holding a candle and hanging a beam for the past two days, barely putting together an essay, but I don't know if it's good or bad. I want to ask the teacher to palm his hand, and then take it home to show to my father."

Everyone behind them started laughing stealthily.

King Yanping was angry and said, "What are you laughing at? It's your turn to laugh today and tomorrow!"

Yan Lin also slightly curved his lips.

Just finished laughing, the gloom not only didn't dissipate, but also deepened: he should have been like Prince Yanping, with a bit of youthful recklessness, but now he can't.

Upon hearing this, Xie Wei knew that Prince Yanping was afraid of being scolded when he came home for writing poorly. He smiled, but with a generous expression, he said, "Your Highness Yanping has been doing very well in his studies for the past few months, and his peers are also among the best in high school. Even if there are still shortcomings in his writing, I believe it will not be a concern for you. However, since Your Highness has personally invited him, Xie is also curious about His recent progress.". But this Fengchen Hall is the place where Princess Royal Highness Princess goes to school. Many of you are inconvenient here. You'd better go to Wenyuan Pavilion to see it again. "

Everyone said "yes".

Prince Yanping immediately showed a happy expression and repeatedly said, "Thank you, sir."

Xie Wei casually put down the ink thread that was tense between his fingers, and only said that he needed to tidy up slightly in the side hall before leaving. He asked everyone to go to the Wenyuan Pavilion first, and then he came over.

Everyone frolicked and frolicked before leaving.

Just as they walked to the door, Xie Wei called out, "I have chosen a few pieces of wood for chopping the qin that are no longer needed. Can you please ask Crown Prince Yan to stay and help move them?"

Yan Lin was taken aback and suddenly stopped in his tracks. He instinctively replied, "I am willing to serve you, sir."

Everyone turned around and didn't think much. They greeted Yan Lin and left.

When Yan Lin, who had stayed behind, walked back into the palace and suddenly thought to himself: The young eunuch was standing outside the palace door. I heard that Mr. Xie's wood for carving the qin this time was specially selected by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and it was most appropriate not to return the remaining wood to the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the young eunuch to go. Why did he have to help move it?

Xie Wei remained calm and pointed to the two pieces of beech wood in the corner of the long table, saying, "These two pieces are not needed. There is Crown Prince Lao Yan now."

Yan Lin walked forward.

However, as he passed by the piano table, he immediately recognized the banana temple placed on it, which he had given to Jiang Xuening. His heart suddenly hurt and his footsteps even stopped.

Xie Wei's gaze also fell on the piano table and he said, "Ning... Although Miss Jiang is a bit mischievous and not particularly outstanding in her studies, she is still obedient in front of me and willing to study with patience. She only learned the piano before leaving. The Prince of Yan can be a little relieved about this."

At that time, he didn't know that something was going to happen in the Yongyi Marquis's mansion.

So thinking of Ning Ning going to the palace to accompany her in her studies, I felt happy in my heart, but I was afraid that she wouldn't pass the selection process. So, after the end of one day's lecture at the Wenyuan Pavilion, I quietly begged Mr. Xie to give him more care.

But now

It was he who sent Ning Ning into this Shura Field with all his might, but he may not have the ability to bless her again in the days to come.

Yan Lin felt uncomfortable when she saw this qin, but she was a little happy after hearing Xie Wei's words. It was difficult to distinguish whether the vine on her tongue was sweet or bitter, so she chuckled and said, "If you could relax so easily, it would be easy."

He stepped forward to move those two pieces of beech wood.

Xie Wei looked at the young man's somewhat silent figure, lowered his eyelids, and there was a vague darkness in his eyes. After a long time, when he spoke, he looked ordinary: "I haven't seen your father this morning. I heard he's sick, don't you mind?"

Yan Lin once again felt that strangeness, but still replied, "It rained a few days ago, and my father drank a lot of wine. The old wounds left on the battlefield in previous years have recurred, and the wounds are a bit painful, so I didn't go to court. It's not a big deal."

Xie Wei nodded and said, "The Crown Prince has something on his mind."

Yan Lin felt a slight chill in his heart, but he couldn't figure out what he meant for a moment.

Xie Wei picked up the qin bag on the side, threw Jiang Xuening over the Zhang Jiao'an here, and together with his Emei, hung it on the east wall of the side hall.

He turned his back, and Yan Lin couldn't see his expression.

Under his calm demeanor, one could only hear his slightly rippling voice: "Master, preaching and receiving knowledge to dispel doubts. Xie was clumsy in learning to play the piano when he was young, but fortunately, thanks to the careful guidance of a famous teacher, he still dares not forget his master's teachings: 'Water drops and stones pierce through, sand gathers into a tower.' It took 23 years to achieve small success. Prince Yan is extremely intelligent, although he is a bit transparent, but even saints are inevitably confused, and it is also inevitable for the prince to have doubts.". If you can believe it, come to me like His Highness Yanping in the future. "

"..."

Yan Lin's pupils narrowed slightly, staring at him.

Xie Wei turned around, but only smiled faintly at him and said, "Let's go, they should wait a long time."

*

After bidding farewell to Yan Lin and others, Jiang Xuening and the others returned to Yangzhi Zhai.

===Kunning Section 71===

Shen Zhiyi couldn't help but drag her into the room and sit down, asking her alone what was going on with Yan Lin.

Jiang Xuening couldn't say a word.

Shen Zhiyi was really anxious when she saw her appearance. She had a bit of resentment towards her for not being strong enough, but after all, she couldn't say a word for a long time. So she could only say, "It's okay if you don't want to say it now. When you want to say it, make sure to tell me. If Yan Lin bullies you, I will definitely call her pretty!"

Jiang Xuening was helpless and could only thank her for her kindness. At least, it took a lot of effort to send Shen Zhiyi away.

She still had a temper when she left.

After sitting in Jiang Xuening's room for a while, he saw that the decoration here was simple. After leaving the door, he scolded the palace maids who were serving and said, "How do you serve? The warm kang in this room is not heated, the vases are not inserted, the brocade stool is too hard, and there are no eye-catching decorations. It's not like a daughter's boudoir. Report it to this princess and replace it with new ones!"! Tell those people who judge others' dishes that if you come back to this palace next time and are still so poor, they won't be able to eat and walk around! "

The palace maids were trembling with fear.

This statement spread to the female officials in charge, eunuchs, and the top internal affairs office, causing even more anxiety and shouting for injustice.

Who doesn't know that this girl Jiang Er is a famous person appointed by Her Royal Highness the First Royal Highness Princess to accompany her in the palace?

No one dares to treat her unfairly. Go ahead.

It's just that they came to the palace to accompany and read, not to enjoy the palace. It's too good to justify it, and there has never been a precedent for accompanying and reading in history.

Princess Chang's words almost caused them to worry to death.

But at the beginning of the bid time, a steady stream of new things were sent from the House of Internal Affairs. The eunuch in charge smiled like honey and said to Jiang Xuening: "His Royal Highness the eldest princess sent a message to Jiang Er to buy her house. The slaves were not careless. They should have put on the best bedding. Have a look?"

The people in Yangzhi Zhai are discussing the matter of encountering Yan Lin today.

If two people have a close relationship and Yan Lin is going to perform the coronation ceremony again, they can discuss marriage soon. There is no need to cover up the relationship too much, and making a joke or two is nothing. Everyone is wary of Jiang Xuening because it is speculated that the marriage relationship between the Jiang Mansion and the Yongyi Marquis Mansion has been secretly established.

I didn't expect Yan Lin to personally deny it.

This is different from what everyone initially knew.

Most people never see good things from others and are more willing to throw stones in the well than give charcoal in the snow, let alone be so eye-catching and heart wrenching towards Jiang Xuening?

Everyone drinking tea and talking privately is inevitably a bit chilly.

Even some people openly show some schadenfreude and ridicule.

But they haven't been happy for two hours yet. The various items specially arranged for Jiang Xuening by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, combined with the flattering attitude of the eunuch in charge, gave them a big slap in the face.

Before even the mocking words could be finished, they were all silenced by the beating.

One by one, their hearts were filled with sourness, and jealousy was hidden in their eyes as they watched the group of people busy waiting in Jiang Xuening's room.

Jiang Xuening could also guess that these people would not say anything good about themselves when they gathered together, but Yan Lin set aside her relationship with her, and the impending incident at the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion was something she expected. In her previous life, she had not experienced a worse situation than this, so compared to the panic and anxiety when she first fell into such a situation in the previous life, she had a bit more calm and composed.

In the previous life, without Yan Lin, she fell in love with Shen Jie;

In this life, there is no Yan Lin, but there is still Shen Zhiyi.

She didn't know why she had such a deep bond with the royal family, but it was difficult to get rid of it at the moment. So she calmly accepted this liking and kept it in her heart.

The palace people were decorating her room, and she sat on the side watching boredom. The group of palace people were also uncomfortable, so they came out of their own room and walked along the palace path outside the Yangzhi Zhai.

You can see the brilliant glazed tiles on the Kunning Palace in just two steps.

She then thought of Zheng Bao.

Having Shen Zhiyi is not enough, the upper class cannot see the filth and filth of the lower class, so it would be best to have someone below.

I just don't know, it was Shen Jie who saved him in the previous life, and it was myself who saved him in this life. Will Zheng Bao still make the same choice as in the previous life?

As her mind spun, Jiang Xuening's footsteps had already stopped.

She can't move forward anymore.

After all, a new palace attendant, now that the incident at the Cining Palace has occurred, everyone in the palace is walking with their heads down. If she walks around and causes trouble, no one can save her.

So I turned around and wanted to return.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I turned around, I saw a person wearing Tibetan blue eunuch attire walking towards the direction of Kunning Palace ahead. When I stood up, my figure was quite tall, with a fair complexion and delicate eyebrows and eyes. Although there were still some scars on my face, it was much better than when I knelt there and was punished yesterday.

Jiang Xuening recognized it at a glance.

But before she could speak, Zheng Bao spoke up first and said, "Zheng Bao has met Miss Jiang Er. Thank you very much for your words yesterday to save her."

He should have entered the palace when he was young, so his voice had a slight softness. When he saw Jiang Xuening, his eyes moved slightly, as if they were a lake melted with snow under the spring sun, warm and cozy.

Jiang Xuening knows that this person is meticulous.

In his previous life, he was also considered Shen Jie's right-hand man. He could think of the details that Shen Jie could think of, and if Shen Jie missed anything, he would definitely know, but he never showed his abilities in front of others, just silently doing things.

So, few people pay attention to her.

She, as the queen, only then did she know who Shen Jie trusted the most; It was only after witnessing Zheng Bao's choice that I realized what kind of intense passion this person had beneath his gentle appearance. He was willing to sacrifice his life for something he believed in.

Shen Jie's rescue of him was pure kindness;

But she saved him, not so.

Jiang Xuening didn't know if he came specifically to find her or if he happened to meet her by chance, but it wasn't important either. She gazed at him for a while and said, "But my purpose in saving you is not simple."

Zheng Bao was taken aback.

He was originally worried about receiving favors from others and should come to thank them. There were too few people in the palace who provided charcoal in the snowy weather, to the point where he tossed and turned on the narrow and hard bed last night, unable to fall asleep.

I never expected the girl in front of me to answer like this.
