The teahouse is located in a bustling alley on West Street in Beijing. The seats on the first floor are slightly cramped, while the second floor is much more spacious. Tang Yao picked up the teapot and was just about to pour himself a cup of tea when he heard the two people at the next table talking softly.

"Hey, have you heard?" The middle-aged man in dark blue clothes put down the tea cup in his hand and said to the man in black at the same table.

"What did you hear?" The man in black asked suspiciously.

"The young lady who was newly married in the Chi Mansion a while ago died mysteriously again...."

"You mean the young lady of the Shangshu Mansion?" Hearing this, the man in black looked shocked, obviously not quite convinced.

"Not really... It's the young lady from Shangshu's Mansion..."

"Such an evil sect?" The man in black poured himself another glass of water, looked around for a while, and then dared to speak, "Hey, you said that this is the third term, isn't it that this Wei Chi Xiaohou really has a rumor of a wife." ”

The middle-aged man touched his beard and agreed, "I guess it's. That young lady's body has been taken back to the mansion by Lord Shangshu, and it seems to be real..."

As the protagonist of the incident, Miss Shangshufu was sitting indifferently drinking tea and listening to the story at this time.

Tang Yao silently put down the teacup, listening to the conversation between the two, feeling a little strange. This little marquis of Wei Chi has naturally never seen it himself. The truth of the matter is that he escaped from Wei Chi Mansion, why did this Wei Chi Chenfeng claim to the outside world that he was dead because of the problem of face?

Wait a minute... Tang Yao suddenly flashed a thought, that day and night, the man with the mask.... The more I think about it, the more familiar I feel, as if the girl from Lanxiang told herself that Yu Chi Shizi likes to wear a weird silver mask on weekdays, and he doesn't show his true face....

No way.... Could it be that the person I met that night was Wei Chichenfeng?! I was taken aback by such a thought, but I felt a little confused.

Not to mention that this lieutenant Chi Chenfeng helped him escape, he also claimed that Tang Ziyao was dead, and it is estimated that only he knows what kind of medicine he sells in this gourd.

However, his declaration to the outside world is nothing more than a big help for Tang Yao. Since Tang Ziyao of Shangshu Mansion is dead, wouldn't she Tang Yao be able to live openly?

"Little... Son... You let me find it..."Lan Xiang came from outside with a bag in her arms, and when she saw Tang Yao sitting there drinking tea, she walked over. This son, Tang Yao asked her to call, after all, it is much more convenient to be a man than a woman. In order to hide her identity as a woman, she tied her long hair into a man's bun with a hosta, and wore a light cyan gown, which really looked no different from a man.

"Am I not doing this?" Tang Yao nodded slightly, poured a cup of tea and handed it to her. Lan Xiang had just taken the teacup, and before she could take a sip, she was led out of the teahouse by Tang Yao.

The long street is paved with bluestone roads, and the vendors who set up stalls along the street shout loudly and show smiling faces, and are courteously soliciting business from customers.

Tang Yao walked slowly on the street, seemingly having nothing to do, but in fact, she was looking for a place, or a place to support herself.

Walking straight down West Street, through the bazaar on Center Street, is a moat. Walking straight along the river, I saw a young scholar sitting by the river with a depressed face, as if he had been hit by something. Tang Yao glanced at him silently, this person couldn't think of jumping into the river to commit suicide.

Thinking so, the scholar really stood up, with an expression of death, and was about to rush into the river. Tang Yao was stunned for a moment, ran over directly, and grabbed his collar, which stopped his impulse that he couldn't think of.

The scholar turned around with a sullen face, and saw that it was a slightly younger man with fair facial features, and said in a somewhat angry tone, "Why are you stopping me?" ”

Tang Yao was stunned, and she had the good intention to save someone's life, but this person said angrily, what kind of truth is this? She let go of her hand and said to the scholar, "It's rude, if you disturb the child... This... On the spur of the moment... It's not mine, Childe continues, and I'll leave. ”

Saying that, Tang Yao turned around and was about to leave, but the scholar stopped her and said, "Hey, don't go.. You wait...."

Tang Yao paused and looked at the scholar suspiciously. saw him walk up to her in a few steps, and returned her with a salute, "I'm really sorry." ”

"I don't know what happened to Childe?" Tang Yao asked.

The scholar was asked like this, and he became depressed again, "Just because I went to Beijing to study alone, although it was to gain fame in the next year, it was also the pride of the elders in the family... It's just a pity that I'm really unlucky, and I lost the fifty taels of silver given by my mother before leaving, thinking that when it is almost time to apply, the registration time for this Nanshan Academy will be closed, and I am very sad. ”

Shen time? It should be from three to five o'clock in the afternoon, Nanshan Academy? Tang Yao suddenly had an idea in his heart, but he was surprised on his face, "What a coincidence, I also have to go to Nanshan Academy to sign up, if the son doesn't mind, I can borrow you first." ”

"It's... What's so embarrassing about that? The scholar said hurriedly.

"It's okay, just give it back to me in the future." Tang Yao said, but if she pays it back in the future, it will bring interest, so she will naturally not say it.

Sure enough, the scholar walked up to Tang Yao with a happy face, grabbed her hand and said, "Then thank you." Dare to ask Childe's surname? ”

Seeing him suddenly act like this, Lan Xiang, who had been silent behind him, glared at him and said, "You... How can you.. Hold my small house.. Childe's hand, you still don't let go of me! ”

"Lan Xiang, don't be rude." Tang Yao said.

The scholar was stunned for a moment, and seemed to realize that he had lost his temper, so he hurriedly let go of his hand, "I'm sorry... It's me who is rude, Xiaosheng Song Qingshu, may I ask the surname of the childe? ”

Tang Yao waved his hand, signaling that he was fine, and then said calmly, "Tang Ziyao." ”

"Brother Tang, your great kindness, Song must remember it in his heart."

Looking at Song Qingshu's righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, Tang Yao's clear eyes flashed slightly, and then said, "Brother Song, actually... When Tang first came to the capital, he really didn't find where this Nanshan Academy was, so I wonder if Brother Song can lead the way for me? ”

"That's natural, Brother Tang comes with me."

Walking and stopping along the way, looking at Song Qingshu's appearance of Swenwen, he didn't expect that it would be a chatterbox. But because he had something to ask him, Tang Yao could only endure it.

"Brother Tang, who introduced you to Nanshan Academy?" Hearing that Tang Yao also came to Nanshan Academy to sign up, Song Qingshu couldn't help but ask curiously.

"No one introduced me, I just came here." Where is there anyone to introduce her, this person is not familiar with the place, where to introduce it.

"In this way, then you can be regarded as the right one, this Nanshan Academy is directly under the academy in the palace, and it is the Royal Academy."

"What do you mean by that?" Tang Yao asked.

"It is the place where the prince and the dignitaries study." Looking at Song Qingshu's proud face, she knew that the family background of this product must not be simple, otherwise how could she know so much gossip. It's so hateful to go through the back door.

Seeing Tang Yao's embarrassed face, Song Qingshu patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, with me here, you can definitely enter this academy." Although this guy's tone sounded like he wanted to beat people, if he really had such a way, why wouldn't Tang Yao do it.

"Thank you Brother Song for that."
