Xiao'er stretched out her hand to stop Rong Xi's movements, "Miss, I'll close it, it's windy here, you better go and rest early." ”

Rong Xi's mind retracted, his gaze turned back calmly, and he nodded lightly.

The window closed, Leng Yixiu's vision was blocked, remembering Rong Xi's calm gaze just now, he suddenly turned his head and smiled, this stubborn woman who makes people hateful is really ......

"Did you find anything?" When Rong Xi saw him come into the house, he poured a cup of tea and put it on the table.

Xiao'er saluted, turned around and retreated, Leng Yixiu looked at the cup of tea, a piece of tea in it slowly rose and fell, and suddenly felt like the woman in front of her, struggling, working hard, making people's hearts sour and full, and there was a slight tingling.

He walked over, and his fingers gently picked up the cup of tea, the blue and white porcelain teacup, the light blue tea, the water vapor was misty, and the aroma was faint, like the smoke and rain of Jiangnan.

Leng Yixiu drank the tea all, gently picked up the tea leaves on the tip of his tongue, and the faint tea fragrance mixed with a slight astringency spread in his mouth.

Rong Xi saw that he didn't speak, nor did he urge, just sat there, his eyes staring at his knees, and his heart was chaotic for no reason.

"A little eunuch in the East Palace who often goes in and out of Yunshang Tower suddenly ascended, and besides, there was a mole near the corner of the man's right eye." Leng Yixiu opened his mouth and said, he put down the teacup gently, and his fingertips gently brushed the place where she had just held, a little nostalgic.

Rong Xi Huo Ran raised his head, his eyes burning, "Can you be sure?" ”

"At the moment...... Not yet, there are too many people in the East Palace, and it is not strange for a eunuch to be promoted, and there are many people with moles in the corners of their eyes. Leng Yixiu explained that he also hoped that this little eunuch would be the one who entered and exited Rong Hao's study, but ...... He didn't want Rong Xi to be happy in vain.

Rong Xi nodded, he understood what Leng Yixiu meant, if it weren't for his suspicion, he wouldn't have come to talk to him about this at this time, but he was worried that once he misunderstood, he would be lost and sad, she smiled faintly, "You're right, I heard that there will be an academic discussion tomorrow at Tianyang Academy on the outskirts of the city, and many literati and some officials' staff will also participate, isn't it?" ”

As soon as she asked, Leng Yixiu understood what she meant, he nodded and said, "Yes, there is indeed such a thing, I will send someone to investigate." ”

"I want to go in person." Rong Xi looked at him, his eyes were as clear as flowing water in the mountains, without the slightest concealment and evasion.

Leng Yixiu looked at her, the firmness and persistence in his eyes made him sigh in his heart, and after a while, he smiled and said, "Okay." ”

Rong Xi knows that his identity is special now, and in this other world, he is not as free and equal as the modern society he is in, women, especially women who marry into such "wealthy families", are more constrained, if he doesn't sue him, then let alone find out anything, I'm afraid it's impossible to even walk out of the door.

"Thank you." Rong Xi received Leng Yixiu's affirmative answer, she bowed her head slightly, and her voice was faint.

"Rong Xi ......" Leng Yixiu looked at her drooping neck, faint with a layer of warm luster under the light, a touch of cloud shoulders shrouded in the moonlit silk robe, and the whole person was as light as a cloud, filling his heart.

"Is there anything else?" Rong Xi raised his head, Leng Yixiu's fingers that were about to stretch out just now stiffened, the warmth dissipated, and suddenly it was cold and painful, only to hear Rong Xi say: "It's not early, there are still many things to do tomorrow, let's go back and rest first, thank you for your hard work." ”

Leng Yixiu felt that his heart was rolling back and forth in cold water and hot fire, and what surprised him even more was that his state of mind seemed to be swayed by Rong Xi's attitude and language, she was as cold as ice, and her heart was like being in the cold winter.

He didn't know that if he said how he felt, Rong Xi would tell him an adjective for this kind of behavior in modern people, "cheap." ”

Resisting the urge to hug her into his arms and enjoy his passion with her again, Leng Yixiu shook his fingers and turned around and left Rong Xi's room.

The next day was a sunny and good day, the sky was blue, the white clouds were gently floating in the sky, the sun shrouded the red sleeve garden, casting a faint shadow under the green trees, the branches and leaves appeared more dense, full of greenery, and the pearl flowers rippled in the green sea, exuding a faint fragrance.

After Rong Xi had breakfast, footsteps sounded in the courtyard, and a grandmother walked in, stood under the porch and said from a distance: "Say hello to the princess." ”

"It's Mama Wei here," Xiao'er glanced at it and immediately said to Rong Xi, and then walked out of the door quickly and gave Mama Wei a salute.

Mama Wei nodded with a smile, "Filial piety girl doesn't need to be so polite, the old slave should give the princess a gift first." After that, seeing Rong Xi appear at the door, he saluted respectfully, and then continued: "Princess, the old slave is on the order of the prince to send you clothes. ”

Xiao'er was surprised in her eyes, and sent clothes? Miss doesn't have a lot of clothes, why would the prince let Mama Wei send clothes? Mama Wei is the housekeeper Mama personally sent by Concubine Wei Guifei in the palace to serve the prince, and her identity is an extraordinary slave.

Rong Xi understood, I'm afraid that Leng Yixiu made preparations for going out to Tianyang Academy today? I am also thinking about it, Tianyang Academy is full of men, and the appearance of a woman like myself will definitely attract attention, how to check it when the time comes?

Sure enough, her eyes fell on the burden that Xiao'er had taken, revealing a corner of the sleeve, which was a faint smoky gray, and she smiled slightly, "There is Mama Lao." ”

Xiao'er looked at Rong Xi in front of her dumbfounded, her hair was tied up high, revealing a full and smooth forehead, and there was a faint red scar on her forehead, such as the red silk on the snow lotus, not only would it not make people feel sorry, but there was a kind of majesty with rigidity in softness, the corners of the woman's eyes were slightly raised, and she swept lightly, and the arrogance appeared in the bottom of her eyes, as if everything in the world was in the bottom of her eyes.

She is wearing a smoky gray robe, with faint auspicious clouds flying at the corners and cuffs of her clothes, between movement and stillness, the smoke waves are vast, the clouds are rolling and the clouds are sparkling, reminiscent of the smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River in March, just like in a painting.

"Miss...... You ......" Xiao'er opened her mouth wide, but Mei Xiang was stunned for a while, then tilted her head and smiled, "Miss dresses up like this, she is a little similar to our master, but she is a little more bookish than her master." ”

Rong Xi also smiled rarely, "My father is a person who has seen life and death on the battlefield, his robe is stained with enemy blood, and he draws his sword to the long wind, how can I compare with his spirit?" ”

Xiao'er and Mei Xiang both nodded vigorously, but when they remembered the current situation of the Rong family and General Rong, their eyes darkened.

Rong Xi had already raised his legs and went out, "You two stay, I'm going out today." ”

"But, Miss......" Xiao'er was stunned for a moment, and then jumped behind in a hurry.

Rong Xi didn't turn back, just waved her hand, she had just been discharged from the hospital, and immediately two guards in civilian clothes also followed automatically, apparently under Leng Yixiu's order.

Rong Xi didn't ask any questions, and when he went out of the house, there was already a carriage street at the door, and the coachman respectfully set up the stool, Rong Xi jumped on his robe and got into the carriage gently.

The moment she lifted the curtain, she was slightly stunned, the carriage looked ordinary on the outside, but it was luxurious and abnormal, there was a small jade plate on the mahogany table, with melons, fruits and snacks on it, the curtain of the car window was an ordinary silk cloth outside, but the inside was a moonshadow veil that did not shade the light, so there was nothing to see inside from the outside, but it was bright inside, and the light was not affected, and there was some other clear water, put it in a water bladder, hanging under the car window, and a brocade quilt and a large pillow, which could avoid the suffering of road bumps.

Just a few quick glances, Rong Xi lowered his eyelids slightly, this carriage should have been prepared by that guy last night, right?

She got into the car and sat down, with the sound of horses' hooves and the rolling wheels, heading towards Tianyang Academy on the outskirts of the city.

Tianyang Academy is a famous academy in the country, and the people who study here are the top talents in the country, whether they are poor students or children of rich families, they must go through strict layers of assessment before they can be qualified to enter this academy to study, and once they enter it, it also means that they have jumped over the dragon gate.

Students who graduated from Tianyang Academy can directly enter the officialdom, which is the best shortcut to prosperity, which represents the new forces in the officialdom and is also the best place for the major forces to recruit talents.

Tianyang Academy has an academic discussion every three years, and anyone who is knowledgeable can participate, but it is necessary to separate from those students, a group of students, a group of celebrities and bachelors in society, and a group of staff members from various provinces.

And Rong Xi, the purpose of coming here today is only for the group of staff, for the sake of just that page of yellowish paper, the paper dedicated to the staff of the East Palace, how could it appear in the study of Rong Mansion?

Tianyang Academy is located on a hillside, the road is not difficult to walk after trimming, you can enter the carriage to go up, but along the way there are pines and cypresses, birds and flowers, those literati boast of being unparalleled and talented, and naturally will not give up a good opportunity to chant poetry against such a scene, so many carriages are parked at the foot of the mountain, and most of them walk up the mountain.

When Rong Xi arrived, he saw such a scene, the open space under the mountain was full of carriages, the horsemen sat on the carriage with the reins in their hands, gathered together to chat, and saw those literati holding paper fans in their hands, shaking their heads, and walking up step by step.

"Woo......" The coachman stopped the carriage, turned his head and said, "Childe, shall we walk up or ......?"

"No need, go all the way to the gate of the academy." Rong Xi really doesn't want to go up like those people, and most of these people are those who claim to be celebrities in society, and those official staff members are probably already going up to occupy their seats, whoever stands in a favorable position first, who can win glory for their master in one fell swoop, how can they be so slow?

The coachman raised his whip and the carriage continued to run forward.
