Shi Zhu almost noticed Wang Yuniang's different color at the same time as Gui Zhi, his face immediately changed, if Wang Yu Niang shouted out at this time, then the private affairs between him and Gui Zhi would definitely be known by Wang Zhangshi.

Shi Zhu hurriedly glanced at Gui Zhi, both of them thought of this, they both felt their scalps tingle, fear leaked from the bottom of their hearts, and their hands and feet were instantly cold. On the desk in front of Gui Zhi, there was an extra stroke on the paper on which the names of several incense products had been written, and this paper was wasted and needed to be rewritten.

The incense room was extremely quiet, and seeing that Wang Yuniang was about to make a sound, Shi Zhu suddenly coughed hard.

The voice came so abruptly that everyone couldn't help but glance at him, and Wang Yuniang's courage was also dispersed by this cough. I saw that her face turned from white to red, her lips twitched a few times, and Guizhi's murderous gaze finally closed.

Anyway, her uncle is the head of this incense courtyard, and she will tell her uncle in private later, so she doesn't have to make enemies with others at this time. Wang Yuniang thought so in her heart, and quietly glanced at Shi Zhu again, but saw that Shi Zhu had lowered her eyes, and everyone turned their attention to their desk again.

The incense room was quiet again, as if nothing had happened, but Wang Yuniang was a little flustered inexplicably, but she didn't know where this feeling came from.

An Lan finished writing the names of the twenty incense products, then put down the pen and knelt quietly in front of the desk, lowering her eyes with a quiet expression.

The goldfinch changed a blank piece of paper, and with the cover of the wide sleeves, opened the note that Caryophyllus had given her, and quickly glanced at it a few times, found the few words she had forgotten how to write, and then picked up the pen again.

Shi Zhu didn't know how to read, and he didn't know much about incense, so he didn't know how much thought it took to get the small note that Guizhi needed. even risked being found out by the king that he had two hearts.

A young man who is new to love and desire may not know what love is, or maybe everything he is doing now can only be regarded as the enthusiasm and impulsiveness of his youth. But if it's mature, it's that I can't do crazy things for you anymore. When the grind of life makes calm analysis. After weighing the pros and cons became an instinct, who would dare to assert the once desperate madness. That's not love.

But these are not interested in Gui Zhi at this time, she only cares about the final attribution of the incense envoy's position.

And, more importantly, now there is an accident in front of her, or rather, a great crisis.

Gui Zhi glanced at Wang Yuniang coldly, she could see that Wang Yuniang didn't say anything just now. But that doesn't mean you won't say it later. She knew that within today, Wang Yuniang would definitely tell Wang Zhangshi everything she saw, and the time would ...... She will definitely end up like Wang Meiniang!

Gui Zhi secretly gritted his teeth and lowered his face, revealing a crazy look in his eyes.

When the incense burns out. Everyone stopped writing, and the invigilator came to collect the papers.

Lian Xi'er reviewed it on the spot, and there was no accident, and everyone passed the assessment. Then Lian Xi'er glanced at them, and then said, "Start with the incense in the afternoon." The six of you are divided into two groups, and the last person in each group is the new messenger. ”

An Lan and Jinque glanced at each other, Jinque was a little surprised, there was no such rule in the previous Xiangzhi exam. An Lan knew in her heart that as long as she passed the first exam, she would prove that she was capable of being a fragrant envoy, and the next two exams were just the best of the best.

In the past, the third exam was generally a temporary lottery, and the two of them were more evenly divided, in case Wang Hua and Wang Yuniang drew together, then one of them would be defeated. The purpose of the king's affairs is to make them both elected, so in order to prevent this in case, the king's affairs naturally have to reformulate the rules.

Sure enough, Lian Xi'er didn't let them draw lots, but directly read the group list.

An Lan, Golden Finch, and Wang Yuniang are a group; Cinnamon apples, lychees, and Wang Hua are a group.

The golden finch pursed her lips with some disdain, and snorted in her heart, An Lan didn't say anything, and calmly accepted this arrangement. It was Gui Zhi, after hearing the group list, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he glanced at An Lan, and then stayed on Wang Yuniang for a moment, and suddenly had an idea in his heart.

……

When she walked out of the incense room, An Lan noticed that Gui Zhi was staring at Wang Yuniang's back from time to time, and there was a bit of ruthlessness in her eyes that could not be hidden. ”

The golden finch was stunned for a moment, and said puzzled: "We don't have to work today, it's easy to take a break, and what to do with that tiredness, and this big sun." ”

"Go ahead." An Lan gave her a look, and when she saw that Lychee was coming towards them, she whispered, "But don't tell Lychee, just tell her that we have to go back to rest and not go anywhere." ”

The golden finch became more and more puzzled, but when she saw An Lan quietly signaling to Gui Zhi, she was stunned, and saw that Gui Zhi was looking at them, so she didn't ask more.

Lychee walked up to them and asked, "Are you going back now?" I asked Lian Xiang if he had grown up, so we could go out and walk around the neighborhood at will. I want to go to the lotus pond to pick some lotus flowers and lotus leaves, make some lotus dew, and lotus cakes, do you want to go together? ”

An Lan smiled and shook her head: "It's too sunny, there is another incense discernment in the afternoon, I want to go back and have a good rest." ”

The goldfinch also yawned and said, "You go, I'll wait for lunch, and I'll take a nap after eating, I haven't slept well in the past few days." ”

Lychee pouted in some disappointment: "It's boring, let's go out for a walk today." ”

The golden finch smiled: "As long as you are playful, I don't think you should pick any lotus flowers, so as not to miss the afternoon exam." ”

Lychee glanced at Wang Yuniang and Wang Hua, and then muttered in a low voice: "You also know a few words that I recognize, and nothing else is really good, and Wang Meiniang's incense envoy is not just now, it's strange to be panicked...... After all, I don't think this errand is very good now, and I don't expect it anymore, I just hope that in a few years, my family can grasp the redemption. ”

The golden finch sighed with some envy: "You still have a family to count on, and An Lan and I don't have this hope for a long time." ”

The smile on Lizhi's face faded a little: "Actually, it's just a luxury, my brother hasn't married yet, even if the family can really make up the money, it won't be used on me." ”

An Lan said softly: "There is still hope in the end, it's always good." ”

"Yes." Lychee smiled again, and then said, "I won't tell you, I'll see who is going to pick lotus leaves." ”

Gui Zhi stood not far away and heard An Lan's conversation. Knowing that An Lan and Jinque would not go anywhere before the afternoon exam, I was even more at ease.

After a short time, everyone went back to their own homes.

On the side of the courtyard of the incense slaves, because all the incense slaves in it went to the incense picking field. So at this time, the three of them were here. Gui Zhi stared at An Lan and Jinji after entering the room. She also went back to her room, but after a while, she quietly came out again. Then he walked softly to An Lan's door and eavesdropped.

An Lan and Jinque had been chatting in the house, and they had no intention of going out at all, so Guizhi was relieved and quietly left there.

At this time, there is still an hour before the incense slave returns from the incense picking field.

Enough for a lot of accidents.

After the golden finch saw Guizhi coming out of the courtyard of Xiangnu through the window, she turned her head and asked, "Sneaky, she is still eavesdropping on us, what is she going to do?" ”

"I don't know." An Lan opened the door and looked out. Then let the goldfinch come out, "Let's go to the incense picking." ”

"What the hell is going on?" After the golden finch followed An Lan out, as he walked, he asked, "Did Guizhi just go to the incense picking field?" ”

"I don't know." An Lan shook her head, "I don't know what she wants to do." Maybe I'll know in the afternoon. ”

"Then let's go to the incense field and do something, why don't we stay in the house." The Plantagenet was puzzled, and then said, "Otherwise, I'll go to her." Sneak in to see what she's going to do? A slut with a bad stomach, you can't do it if you don't guard against it! ”

"No!" An Lan hurriedly grabbed the golden finch, "Leave her alone, it will be bad if she drags her down." We went to the incense selection field, with everyone, and there were people watching everything we did, and nothing else depended on us. ”

The golden finch glanced at An Lan hesitantly, and asked in a low voice, "An Lan, do you know?" ”

This kind of thing is also a burden to know now, An Lan thought about it, and said, "I'm not sure either, don't ask, I'll tell you in the afternoon." ”

"Mysterious." The Plantage muttered, but then said, "In the afternoon, I see that the group is obviously uneasy and kind, if it is fair competition, I think none of them can compare to you!" I just don't know what trick that old pervert is going to play, did Lu Xiangzhi make you pay attention to anything? ”

An Lan couldn't do anything about this, so she shook her head helplessly: "I can only act at the opportunity." ”

……

Wang Zhangshi went to the White Book House on an errand, and after Wang Yuniang returned to the guest house where she was resting, she pondered for a while, then stood up and planned to discuss what had just happened to Wang Hua, but as soon as she opened the door, she saw Shi Zhu standing outside the door.

Wang Yuniang was startled, her face was slightly pale, and she asked in a panic: "You, what are you going to do?" ”

Shi Zhu glanced at her before he said, "The head is back, let you go." ”

"Uncle is back!" Wang Yuniang's eyes were happy, and the fear on her face faded, "Uncle asked you to call me?" ”

"Yes, please come with me." Caryophyllus nodded, and turned around.

Wang Yuniang hurriedly followed, but after walking a few steps, she suddenly remembered Wang Hua and asked, "Why didn't my uncle call me cousin?" ”

Shi Zhu said: "Shi Song went to invite him, the place where the male guest lives is so close, I guess I am waiting for you here, please go faster." ”

"Okay, you hurry up and lead the way, don't let my uncle wait!" Wang Yuniang was relieved, just walking, she suddenly felt that something was wrong, and couldn't help slowing down, "Here, it doesn't seem to be going to my uncle, where are you going to take me?" ”

Shi Zhu turned his face and said a little indifferently: "The weather is hot, Wang Zhangshi usually rests in the pavilion during the day, Wang Hua is there now, if you don't want to go, I will go back to Wang Zhangshi and say that you won't go." ”

When Wang Yuniang heard this, she immediately said: "Who said I wouldn't go, I just haven't walked here, and I haven't seen anyone yet, so I just asked." ”

"You just entered the Yuanxiang Courtyard, and there are many places that you haven't walked. The incense slaves have all gone to work, there are no idlers here, and they will not walk around. Shizhu glanced at her and explained, before retracting his gaze and continuing to walk forward.

Wang Yuniang bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Aren't you afraid, I'll tell my uncle later?" ”

Shi Zhu didn't speak, nor did he look back, so Wang Yuniang didn't look at him, his face was slightly pale.

After bypassing several paths and never seeing a figure, Wang Yuniang began to feel uneasy again, and was about to ask again, but at this moment Shi Zhu suddenly stopped and turned around: "It's here." ”

Wang Yuniang was stunned, arrived? But before she could see what this place was, there was a sudden sharp pain in the back of her head, and before she could scream, she was followed by a fierce blow, she looked at Shi Zhu in disbelief, opened her mouth, and wanted to turn around to see who it was, but her body shook a few times, and finally she couldn't turn around, and she fell.

Gui Zhi threw down the big stone in his hand, dragged Wang Yuniang's body and dragged it to the abandoned well next to him. After a while, she felt quite struggling, so she glared at Shi Zhu and shouted: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you come over and help, hurry up, what if someone comes over here and sees it!" ”

Shi Zhu woke up like a dream, but he couldn't think, just went over mechanically, picked up Wang Yuniang according to Gui Zhi's words, and then threw it into the well. The sound of the "plopping" water startled him all over his body, but before he could catch his breath, Gui Zhi ran back, picked up the stone just now, and threw it into the well.

There was another "plop" sound, and finally Shi Zhu came back to his senses, he looked stiffly into the well, and then looked at Gui Zhi with a miserable face: "You, you killed her!" ”

Gui Zhi gasped and said viciously: "If I don't kill her, she will kill us!" ”

Shi Zhu only felt that his mind was empty, and he didn't know how to accept everything in front of him, so he said dryly: "But you, you told me, just to warn her, you-how do you kill people!" ”

"It's not me who kills, it's us who kill!" Gui Zhi stared at Shi Zhu and sneered, "Don't be stupid, do you think she can listen to our warnings, what do we threaten her!?" Gui Zhi pointed to the well as he said, "She is the niece of the king, and that uncle is much more important than my godfather, if she doesn't die, it's you and me who die!" ”

Shi Zhu stood there, speechless, Gui Zhi walked over step by step, and Shi Zhu subconsciously took a step back.

Gui Zhi entered again, grabbed his clothes, pressed his body against his violently undulating chest, stared at his pale face and said, "Do you dare to let Wang Zhangshi know about us?" Do you dare? ”

Shi Zhu shook his head in a daze, and Gui Zhi said, "So she must die!" ”

Shizhu said with difficulty: "In case ......"

"No case, no one knows about this, you don't know, I don't know." Gui Zhi looked at him and spoke slowly, "Moreover, I have no grievances with her, and there is no reason to put her to death, because she is not in the same group as me." Only An Lan and Golden Finch would want her to die, do you understand? ”
