The library pavilion has always been a place that no one cares about, and it is located in a remote location in the imperial city, if any master wants to read any books, they are all sent to borrow them, so most of the officials on duty here are some poor and powerless petty officials who have offended the powerful, and they can rarely see the master, let alone the emperor.

Fortunately, the petty officials here seem to be adapting to such days, all of them are lazy and slippery, and before noon, there is only one person left in the library who is still taking care of the books, and this person is naturally Wanlin.

Tao Tao came to this conclusion after at least three days of observation. She spat out the skin of melon seeds, dusted off the crumbs that had fallen on the placket of her clothes, and asked, "I said nerd, didn't you notice that you were the only one working in the entire library?" ”

Wan Lin came down from the ladder with a dusty and damaged scripture book in his hand, and one of his tasks was to repair or rub the old books.

When he heard this, he glanced at Tao Tao and the melon seed skin in that place, frowned slightly, put the scriptures on the bookcase, turned around and went to get the broom again, and began to clean up.

Tao Tao seemed to be a little accustomed to it, and he also changed his place to sit very intimately, so that Wanlin could clean up: "What, the work of sprinkling and sweeping is also yours?" She looked around, "I wonder if you're the only one working in this library?" ”

Wanlin cleaned up the ground, and then picked up the scripture and asked curiously: "Aren't you the big palace maid of Princess Yan?" ”

Tao Tao nodded, and Wan Lin continued: "Then what are you doing in the Library Pavilion?" Is my father-in-law mainly reading? ”

"It's not."

"That's a girl, do you have a book you want to read?"

"It's not."

"And what are you doing here?"

Tao Tao is accustomed to such conversations that happen every day: "Nerd, you are a noble person, how forgetful are you?" This girl was ordered by the princess to ask you what to say. ”

"What does the princess want to ask?"

"Why did you say that Mr. Cen was a bad person that day?"

Wan Lin frowned, tilted his head and thought about it: "Naturally, it's because he's a bad person." ”

"You saw Tian'er's door in the library pavilion, and Mr. Cen didn't come back to your ghost place, obviously you have a holiday with him is relatively small, so why do you say this about him?"

Her question was very strange, and Wan Lin You was silent for a moment: "He is a bad person, what does it have to do with whether he has a holiday with me?" ”

"Since there is no holiday, then why do you say that he is a bad person?"

Tao Tao has always wondered whether the seemingly confused nerd in front of her is really stupid or pretending to be stupid with herself, she has been asking this question for three days, and this nerd is playing Tai Chi with herself every day.

"Naturally, because he's a bad guy."

Tao Tao took a deep breath and forced herself not to be like this nerd, she had been suffering from such torture every day for the past three days, she looked at him very seriously, and leaned forward slightly: "What about your family?" ”

Wan Lin was stunned, as if he didn't expect Tao Tao to suddenly change the topic, but he still replied very honestly: "I don't have a family." ”

"Everyone will have family, how can you not have family?"

"They're all dead, I'm an orphan, I don't remember what my family looks like."

Tao Tao's heart tightened: "Ah, then how did you grow up?" ”

Wan Lin thought about it carefully: "I don't remember much. ”

"Don't remember? So what were you doing before the imperial examination? ”

"Study with Master."

"Master?"

Wan Lin nodded: "He taught me to read." ”

"Then how did you meet your master?"

"I don't remember much, Master said that my head was injured and I can't remember much about the past, but I read very well."

Tao Tao's eyes widened, this seemingly confused man actually had such a miserable past, which may also explain why he was different, she actually felt a little sympathy for him.

"But you study hard in the cold window, are you willing to waste time in this library?"

"Wasted?" Wan Lin thought she said a very strange word: "I like it here, there are so many books here, there are few people, I can concentrate on reading, I have never read so many books before, so I am very happy." ”

"You ......" Tao Tao didn't know what to say, but felt that he was so good, he liked what he did, and he was much better than those who wanted to be dissatisfied.

She originally thought that Cen Run, whom Princess Yan liked, was the most special existence in this palace, otherwise she would not have let Nuan Jin be so infatuated, but now look, Wanlin is really out of the mud and unstained.

In the next few days, Tao Tao still came to the library to report, but she didn't ask Wanlin about whether Cen Run was a good person or a bad person, sometimes, she would discuss the content of the collection with Wanlin, and she would also ask him for teaching, or sometimes she didn't say anything, just quietly watched Wanlin read on the side.

Over time, Lin seemed to be accustomed to Tao Tao following aside, and the conversation between the two became more and more.

"So, the princess never beats the minions?" Wan Lin asked curiously while holding a stack of books.

Tao Tao nodded, took the book in Wan Lin's hand, skillfully classified it, and placed it on the case: "She is the best master I have ever met, to say something disrespectful, Princess Yan treats me like a sister." ”

"Oh, that's very different from the masters I know." Wan Lin thought for a moment and added, "Most of them have a bad temper. ”

"That's because they never saw the minions as human beings."

"So, is it because the princess treats you very well that you are reluctant to inquire about the news for her?"

Tao Tao nodded: "Well, if I still know who is not good to our princess and wants to harm her, I will do my best to protect her." ”

"You treat the princess well, too." Wan Lin nodded.

"Isn't it just that you treat me well and I treat you well before people, and it's very warm in both places."

Wan Lin stopped the movement of his hand and thought about Tao Tao's words very seriously: "So, if I treat you well, you will treat me well, will we all feel warm?" ”

"yes."

"That's because Manager Cen treats the princess very well, and the princess treats him very well, and they feel very warm, so the princess is so persistent about whether he is a good person or not?"

"Uh...... Sort of, sort of. ”

"Okay then."

"Okay then?" Tao Taohu looked at him suspiciously.

"The princess kept asking me why she said that Mr. Cen was a bad person."

Tao Tao's eyes lit up, and he was nervous and didn't dare to talk, for fear that he would keep silent again.

"I've found something in the book, but I can't tell you this, no matter how long you've been here, I can't tell you, I'm guarding the library, and naturally I'm guarding the secrets here. However, the princess is a good person, and you are also a good person, so you should also be careful of General Lin Xiao. ”

"General Lin Xiao ......" Tao Tao was very surprised by this person's name, and he really couldn't think about the connection between these people.

Wan Lin seemed to see Tao Tao's doubts, and added: "He is about to return to the court, and you will naturally understand when the time comes." ”
