At the moment when she collided with He Lianyi's eyes, the sensitive Song Yi'an read a lot of things that made her unbelievable. She read shock and disbelief in He's eyes. Could it be that Helian Yi recognized her?

How is that possible? She has never shown herself in women's clothes!

The reason why she wears women's clothes out of the palace is mainly because she has to escape the eyes and ears of the people in the palace and cannot be discovered by people. Her current identity is the daughter of Granny Xu, who is in charge of cleaning the corridor in front of the Crescent Moon Palace. Granny Xu's daughter worked as an errand in the palace, and was responsible for buying some folk gadgets for the women of the East Palace to fiddle with, especially needlework, handkerchiefs and other things.

Song Yi'an is thinner than Granny Xu's daughter, but now she is wrapped in thick gauze because of the injuries on her arms and legs, so she looks like she can barely get through.

Now facing Helianyi's scrutinizing eyes, Song Yi'an, who was "a thief with a weak heart", became panicked, she touched the scarf that covered her face, and it was still there.

It must have been a false alarm, Song Yi'an comforted himself. Her "little test" has not yet been conducted, how can she be stage frightened now?

According to Song Yi'an's plan, the assistant she borrowed from Zhou Meiyu would disguise herself as a thief and steal the jade pendant she hung on her belt in front of He Lianyi. According to Helianyi's "kind-hearted" character, he will definitely help Song Yi'an recover the jade pendant. In this way, Song Yi'an had an opportunity to express his gratitude.

Song Yi'an replaced Granny Xu's daughter. As a maid in the palace, Granny Xu's daughter has naturally seen the new science list that has entered the palace twice before and after, and she can praise him. Song Yi'an doesn't know much about painting, but she knows calligraphy, Qin and Han, Wei and Jin, Sui and Tang, and all famous calligraphers are all proficient and refined. In addition to calligraphy, it is also possible to talk about articles. Song Yi'an inherited the name of Mr. Ru Jiheng, and he was an impostor, secretly participated in the imperial examination, and won the top prize in high school, but unfortunately his good reputation could not be claimed, which is also a pity.

————

Speaking of why she participated in the imperial examination, Song Yi'an had only one purpose, which was to give her mentor Ji Heng an explanation. Ji Heng gave up her future and wealth, and stayed in the palm-sized place of the Crescent Moon Palace for ten years, accepting the pity or contempt of outsiders, and teaching her to read without regrets, she wanted to tell him in this way that she had lived up to his hopes and teachings.

Pull your thoughts back, the task in front of you is waiting for Song Yi'an to complete.

The assistant sent by Zhou Meiyu had already begun to act, he passed by Song Yi'an according to Song Yi'an's prior arrangement, and easily got the jade pendant that Song Yi'an hung on his belt. Song Yi'an's eyes were rolling, and he had already thought of a long list of praise words for He Lianyi and Zhen Yuqing.

The first to make a noise was Zhen Yuqing. Zhen Yuqing has the courage of "roaring when the road is uneven", and the sentence "thief!" attracted the attention of countless pedestrians.

The acting skills of the "thief" are excellent, and after listening to this earth-shattering shout, it seems that he is really frightened, and hurriedly flees towards the small alley around him. Song Yi'an also pretended to be anxious, endured the pain in his legs and arms, and begged passers-by to help while chasing.

Under the command of Zhen Yuqing, the entourage of the Zhen Mansion abandoned the carriage one after another to chase the thief. Zhen Yuqing thought proudly, it is rare for my cousin to take a few more glances at a girl, maybe it will be love at first sight, if I help me so much, will he be moved and give me his new painting "Wuxia Smoke and Rain"?

Who knows, He Lianyi, who was supposed to be in the center of Song Yi'an's plan, didn't give the "thief" a glance from beginning to end, and his attention was always on Song Yi'an.

Zhen Yuqing thought again, cousin, you are called a coward.

He Lianyi, who was deeply despised by Zhen Yuqing, said coldly to Zhen Yuqing: "Cousin, why don't you chase the thief?"

Zhen Yuqing: "I...... I'll have to watch our carriage. ”

"I'll come and see the carriage, you go chase people!"

What? Is this the beginning of "heavy color and light friends"?

Zhen Yuqing wanted to maintain his dignity as an elder brother, so he coughed dryly and said, "I'm actually not in the way here. ”

Helian Yi is a "doer", and he pushes his cousin down the alley.

Song Yi'an witnessed the whole process in a daze, and felt that He Lianyi was not the handsome boy in Ji Shu's mouth, and even he was a little abnormal.

Even more abnormal things are yet to come.

He Lianyi walked up to Song Yi'an in front of the public, grabbed Song Yi'an's wrist, and flashed into the nearest teahouse.

He Lianyi walked quickly, making it difficult for Song Yi'an, who had not recovered from serious injuries, to follow. But that's not what Song Yi'an cares about the most.

The development of things was far beyond Song Yi'an's control, she originally thought that even if He Lianyi didn't help, or didn't bother to accept her gratitude at all, it didn't matter, it was just a test, and it didn't hurt. But in the current situation, Song Yi'an didn't know what to react to.

Song Yi'an's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and she whispered tentatively: "Childe, what are you doing? Did you recognize the wrong person? The concubine is a maid of the East Palace, and the concubine is ......."

"Don't speak!" Helian warned in a muffled voice.

Song Yi'an had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.

Seeing that a guest came in, the shopkeeper in the teahouse happily came over to answer: "Miss Childe, are you two......?"

He Lianyi cut off the words of the shopkeeper and asked seriously, "Is there a place where you can speak?"

There are many dignitaries and nobles in the capital, and there are many secrets, many nobles like to choose the private room of the teahouse to meet the guests if it is not convenient for them to receive guests at home, as long as the identity is well hidden, it is not easy to attract the attention of others. The shopkeeper has been working here for several years, and he understands the so-called "place where he can speak".

However, after so many years, he had never seen Childe lead a young lady to the teahouse to talk.

Fortunately, he also knew which sentence to ask and which not to ask, so he hurriedly accompanied Xiao and led the two to a secluded private room called "Epiphany Pavilion" on the second floor.

Declined the kindness of the shopkeeper to serve tea, He Lianyi closed the door of the Epiphany Pavilion. In such a quiet place, Song Yi'an could almost hear the sound of his violent heartbeat.

Song Yi'an's arm trembled with pain, but she covered it with a pretended frightened expression, and she said timidly: "Childe, the concubine is a maid of the East Palace, did you recognize the wrong person?"

He Lianyi's face was ugly, and he said: "I can't lift it or carry it on my shoulder, but I can only take out my hand for people to sigh with a little memory." After 20 years of virtual life, the people I have seen will never be forgotten. Inviting His Highness the Seventh to come here is to offend His Highness. ”

A buzz exploded in Song Yi'an's head - I didn't expect to be recognized!

Song Yi'an's wrist moved slightly, and a delicate dagger gently fell into her palm from the left sleeve, silently.
