Chapter 118: The Second Assessment

Ye Xintian narrowed his eyes, looking at the people who walked into Mingyue Pavilion suspiciously, he didn't understand what the other party was doing, there was no deep friendship between them, and the number of conversations was only a handful, what kind of friendship was to be talked about after the first literary exam and before the second assessment?

Pull the relationship? The two of them have their own backgrounds, and they are both important ministers of the DPRK and the central government behind them, so they don't need to have a relationship. Leave the relationship in advance? That should be what Bai Weiwei has to do, and the other party has not set her up.

Nothing, what does the other party do? Ye Xintian looked strangely at the person who was gradually approaching him, and the two of them should not have anything to talk about.

"Don't talk about people during the day, just say everyone." Chunke twisted her eyebrows, thinking that she would have gone to place a bet if she knew her, and thought that she had escaped a catastrophe, but she didn't expect that there was a greater catastrophe waiting for her, and she suddenly wanted to find a hole to drill into.

Ye Xintian tilted his head to the side, looked back at Chunke and said, "The Chen beauty you are optimistic about is here, your expression is wrong." ”

Chunke made a bitter face, knowing that her master would make fun of her, and said aggrievedly: "I, I was wrong." ”

Ye Xintian held back a smile, reached out and patted Chunke's back, and said, "Straighten my back." ”

Chunke immediately raised his head and straightened his chest, saw Chen Meiren approaching, blessed his body and said, "Chen Meiren is good." ”

Chen Chuchu twisted her slender waist, smiled at the corner of her mouth, slowly walked in front of Ye Xintian, blessed her body and said, "Meet the princess." ”

"Get up." Ye Xintian raised his hand, put his hand in a posture of invitation, took the lead in sitting down on the stone bench, and then asked directly: "What is Chen Meiren looking for me?" ”

Chen Chuchu sat down, thinking that the two would greet each other, but she didn't expect Ye Xintian to go directly to the topic, she was a little surprised, but there was no wave on the surface, she glanced at Chunke.

Ye Xintian waved his hand to Chunke and said, "Go and take out the best tea and snacks and greet Chen Meiren." ”

"Thank you." Chen Chuchu saw Chunke leaving, she nodded and thanked her.

Although Ye Xintian's eyes did not fall on Chen Chuchu, the corner of her eyes kept watching Chen Chuchu's every move, because the evaluation of her by the people of King Jin's Mansion was that she was gentle and polite, had no quarrel with the world, and wrote well.

Chen Chuchu's appearance is not excellent between Bai Weiwei and the remaining two people, but it seems to be a little common, the so-called public face, which gives people a kind of surprise when they meet, but they will appreciate it after getting along.

Yi Sijin is not a patient person, and men have their own set of aesthetics for beauty, Chen Chuchu will forget if he doesn't leave an impression on him, so Chen Chuchu in the Jin Mansion is any subordinate who dares to give a face, because she doesn't fight, in the backyard of the Jin Palace, she is destined to become a bullying party.

Ye Xintian saw his former self in Chen Chuchu. When she first married into King Jin's Mansion, there was only Chunke by her side, and she had no own power, so others would treat you as a soft persimmon and pinch it casually, but she was different, behind her was the General's Mansion, and no one dared to move.

"What is Miss Chen looking for me today?" Ye Xintian saw that Chen Chuchu didn't speak for a long time, kept his head down, frowned and asked.

Chen Chuchu didn't reply immediately, but looked around vigilantly, not letting go of any place where people could hide, like a frightened bird.

Ye Xintian saw her strange behavior, so she reached out and knocked on the marble tabletop to regain her consciousness before continuing: "Miss Chen, you and I have precious time, so it's not appropriate to waste it like this. ”

"Princess, I want to cooperate with you tomorrow." Chen Chuchu said after taking a deep breath.

"Do you know what will be assessed tomorrow?" Ye Xintian asked in surprise.

Chen Chuchu shook his head, and then said, "I don't know, but I can probably guess." ”

That's right, Chen Chuchu is a well-known talented woman in Chenguo, although her appearance is not satisfactory, but in terms of literary attainments, she is definitely superior.

"You want to be the mistress of the palace?" Ye Xintian asked tentatively.

Chen Chuchu still shook his head, "It's not my turn to do this, but I want to prove to everyone that I am also capable." ”

"Is that really it?" Ye Xintian obviously didn't believe it, Chen Chuchu even knew that the allies had to find it first, how could he be satisfied with just proving his strength?

I'm afraid there is something deeper in this, but Ye Xintian doesn't know.

Chen Chuchu nodded vigorously, for fear that Ye Xintian would not believe it, and stretched out his hands to hold Ye Xintian's hand tightly, and said, "Princess, please rest assured, I will never harm you." ”

"How many people did you say that?" The meaning of Ye Xintian's words is obvious, Chen Chuchu has other options, and she is not the best candidate.

Everyone is preparing for the hostess assessment, only she has no intention of reading, running out all day long, and she doesn't know what she is doing. The gambling games in the market were opened, and no one dared to bet on her.

"Only the princess." Chen Chuchu replied sonorously.

Ye Xintian chuckled, withdrew his hand from Chen Chuchu's hand, and then analyzed: "No, you have other candidates, if the same is true, you may have said it a fourth time." ”

It's not that she spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, but Chen Chuchu has never said a few words to her, how could she suddenly talk about cooperation, I am afraid that someone is behind it.

"What does the princess want me to do tomorrow?" Chen Chuchu is a smart person, and he knows that Ye Xintian's laughter represents distrust.

Ye Xintian supported his chin with one hand, squinted his eyes at Chen Chuchu, and said, "What to do, Miss Chen should know very well in her heart." ”

Chen Chuchu didn't speak, but the hands on the table were folded back and forth uneasily, his face was a little ugly, and his teeth were clenched on his lower lip, as if he was thinking about something.

Ye Xintian kept staring at Chen Chuchu like this, as if he wanted to see Chen Chuchu out of a hole and understand the structure inside.

"Princess, Chen Meiren, the best tea and snacks are here." Chunke's voice sounded at the most opportune time.

Chunke stepped forward at great speed, put down the teapot, teacup, and dim sum, and then skillfully poured tea for Ye Xintian and Chen Chuchu.

"I'm sorry, I'll go first." Suddenly, Chen Chuchu stood up, turned around and left after speaking.

Chunke looked at Chen Chuchu's back and fled with strange eyes, and for a while, she didn't know how to ask, and when she thought about it and turned around, Ye Xintian had already walked into the house.

Chunke hurriedly caught up, walked side by side with Ye Xintian, and then asked, "Why is Chen Meiren's face so ugly?" ”

Ye Xintian shrugged his shoulders and said, "Probably because the plan has been exposed, there is no place to be ashamed." ”

Chunke paused, thinking about the truth and falsehood of Ye Xintian's words, and finally felt that it was perfect, and he couldn't find any flaws.

Ye Xintian's side, she had long forgotten about Chen Meiren, but a scene appeared in her mind, it was this morning, the conversation between her and Bai Weiwei was a little strange, and a little taken for granted, what was this feeling?

★★★★★★

When night falls, the entire Jin Wang's Mansion is shrouded in black, and tomorrow is the last level of the hostess's assessment, some people toss and turn, and some people sleep more soundly than usual.

The next day, the five hostess candidates came to the place where yesterday's exam was held, but this time it was different, they didn't have to be locked in a small room for the exam, but they could come here on time.

Yi Sijin sat in the gazebo, and the five candidates stood in front of him, and he looked at them with eyes like examining objects, and he was not in a hurry to speak.

Bai Weiwei and the three beauties didn't dare to move, even if they were tired of standing, they all straightened their waists, and the smiles on the corners of their mouths were the same.

Ye Xintian was standing, but her body twisted to the left for a while, and then to the right, and she didn't stand up, and when Yi Sijin looked at her with that kind of look, she glared at him back.

In the end, she couldn't help it, and asked first: "Dare to ask the prince, is the content of today's assessment a penalty station?" ”

"It's not." Yi Sijin knew that Ye Xintian would be the first to be unable to stand, so he put the teacup back on the table and motioned to the guards to bring the booklet unhurriedly.

"Can you please hurry up, I'm in a hurry." Ye Xintian said with a smile.

Yi Sijin glanced at her, in front of her, slowly opened the booklet, began to browse the content on it, closed it after reading it, and said: "You will have a silver ingot, this silver will be used as your basic capital for entrepreneurship, what to sell is up to you, tomorrow night at dusk, and then count in person, whoever earns more will be the first." Remember, don't think about mixing your own money, and if you find out, disqualify the hostess. ”

Fang Qi put down a silver ingot in the palm of the hands of the five of them, and ordered the other maidservants to come forward and search them.

Ye Xintian felt that this assessment was quite novel, that is, the silver was given a little little, and a silver ingot, it was impossible to do a big business, and a small business might not be able to do a good job, because the profit would be relatively small.

"Let's get started." Yi Sijin glanced at Ye Xintian thoughtfully and said.

Why did Ye Xintian think that his eyes were a little contemptuous? Is he underestimating her?

When Ye Xintian came back to her senses, Bai Weiwei and the three beauties were gone, only she was still in place, and the slaves around her smiled and pointed at her.

"If you dare to love you, I won't win what you bought." Ye Xintian muttered quietly.

Ye Xintian took Chunke and walked around the most prosperous central street, picking up and putting down more than a dozen things in her hands, but she was not sure which one to use to make money.

This ingot of silver ingots, not too much, less is not too much, but what kind of business can be profitable?

That's right, she didn't plan to touch this silver ingot, because it would be too difficult to settle accounts at that time.

She just played with the silver ingot, sometimes throwing her into the air, sometimes catching her, and her mind raced through all kinds of possibilities.

"Did the princess think of what to sell?" Chunke asked anxiously, an hour had passed, and his master was still wandering on the street, and he heard that other people had already talked about good things for sale.

Ye Xintian caught the silver ingot, shook his head and said, "Don't worry." ”

It's true that the emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuchs are in a hurry, and they are in a hurry to die. Look at Ye Xintian again, he looked light and breezy, and walked into an alley.

Ye Xintian pulled Chunke and dodged into the alley, avoiding people's eyes watching the show, and as soon as he entered, he saw a slender figure with his back to them.
