593 Suppression (Second Update)

Xie Xiangling felt as if he had been slapped in the face, his face was pale, and he didn't come back to his senses for a while.

No matter how she instructed before, Zhang Lan should give it, a password, an action. She thought that Zhang Lan was soft, but she didn't expect Zhang Lan to suddenly have a seizure and embarrass herself in public......

"Puff......" Wu Congsu couldn't help but cover his mouth and chuckled, laughing uncontrollably, feeling that Zhang Lan was really interesting to speak. Absolutely.

Xie Xiangling narrowed his eyes, and the bottom of his eyes was as gloomy as ink. Hmph, it seems that Zhang Lan still hasn't recognized his identity!

She wanted to say something, but Zhang Lan had already left without looking back.

It was her duty as an invigilator to take the pen and paper and hand over the paint, and she didn't have to do anything else.

My little cousin is so cute, just as cute as Snow Jade with her tail cocked! Duanmu Fei looked at Zhang Lan's back without blinking, and his eyes brightened.

Xie Xiangling's forehead jumped and jumped, and she almost wanted to get up, but her right hand was raised, and she paused again, she finally remembered what place this was, and she couldn't delay the painting exam for Zhang Lan.

She pressed the anger in her heart, her pupils became darker and darker, and she said in her heart: Don't worry, I'll clean up this Zhang Lan later!

The Qi family above naturally took all the scenes in his eyes, frowned, and his eyes flashed with a hint of safety.

In the past, she liked Zhang Lan very much when she was in Zhang's house, although she later broke off with Zhang Wenxuan, but as a gentleman and an elder, she still liked students like Zhang Lan and juniors like them.

Zhang Lan has the bones of the Zhang family and the Chu family, and she is worthy of being a girl with the blood of two major families.

Originally, the women's football team of the Zhang family like Zhang Lan married into any family as the head of the house, but suddenly "sideways"......

The Qi family had also heard the rumors in Beijing about the queen, the four princes and the Cheng'en Mansion, and had also heard that the queen had "taken a fancy to" Zhang Lan as the concubine of the four princes, and felt that Zhang Lan was not worth it.

As the former Mrs. Zhang, of course, the Qi family also knows the family rule that the concubines of the Zhang family are not concubines.

Royal concubines are also concubines.

If the queen and Zhang Jiaming talked about it, the Zhang family would not agree, but I didn't expect that the queen would actually come to this trick and want to catch the ducks on the shelves. There is a saying that three people become tigers. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid it will ruin Zhang Lan's family affairs.

Hey, the royal family is really willful!

And this Miss Xie Liu......

Qi sighed secretly, looked at Xie Xiangling in front of her, and flashed in front of her the scene where she summoned Zhang Lan in a hurry, her brows furrowed even tighter, and she said in her heart: This Xie Liu girl is so arrogant and domineering, and her heart is too poor, no matter how high her talent is, she is not suitable for women's school.

The water pavilion gradually fell silent, and the girls neatly prepared all kinds of painting tools for the candidates, and the candidates began to paint.

The faint scent of ink and various pigments permeated the air, and when the wind blew, there were bursts of floral fragrance, and the atmosphere was quiet and peaceful.

There was silence all around, and the girls waved to their heart's content.

Among the eight candidates present, probably only Duanmu Fei has not done it yet.

She held her little face and struggled for a long time, originally she wanted to just fool around and go through the motions.

However, she wanted to see Qi Daozhi's painting.

If someone else is the leader in the painting test, will they be willing to lend her a painting?

Duanmu silently glanced around, and nu pouted. Hey, she is not familiar with these candidates, so I'm afraid she is not sure.

Never mind.

She came all the time, if she couldn't see Qi Daozhi's painting, she would have gone out in vain today, and she sacrificed her nap.

Let's draw seriously.

After comforting himself in his heart, Duanmu Fei suppressed the sleepy insect and cheered up.

Duanmu Fei quietly stared at the blank rice paper for a moment, and then began to grind the ink, and after a while, her heart settled, and her eyes also settled, and her eyes were clear.

She confidently took the pen and painted, splashing ink, drawing freely, and her delicate face and eyes seemed to glow.

Zhang Lan sat in front of the invigilator, like Qi, her eyes always couldn't help but look at Duanmufei, she was very curious about what Duanmufei drew today, but thinking that she was an invigilator today, she tried to restrain herself.

Be dignified. Zhang Lan said to herself silently in her heart.

Inside the water pavilion, quietly, except for the sound of the wind blowing the leaves outside the window, there was hardly any sound, and everyone was concentrating on painting.

Wu Congsu looked at it for a while, and then felt bored, so he followed a female student out of the water pavilion and went to another examination room to watch the excitement.

Every half an hour, Zhang Lan reminded the candidates of the remaining exam time.

"Half an hour to go."

When Zhang Lan sent out the second reminder, Duanmu Fei happened to put away the pen.

She subconsciously looked around for half a circle, and found that many candidates had also finished drawing, some were looking down at their paintings, some picked up the pen and added a few strokes to the painting, and some hesitated to hold the pen and put it down......

Anyway, there was still time, Duanmu Fei slowly began to organize the bookcase, first washed the pen, hung a few washed sheep's hair pens on the pen holder according to the length, and then rearranged the messy four treasures of the study, etc., and took the pen wash to clean......

On the bookcase, it didn't take long for it to become clean and neat, and the freshly painted painting was meticulously laid out on the bookcase.

Some of the other candidates around were also sorting out the bookcase, some were ignoring the messy bookcase, and some were still drawing, and the Qi family on it was all in their eyes.

Time passed silently until the fifth bell rang today, and the painting exam was over.

Zhang Lan and a few other female students who were invigilating came down to collect the drawings that the candidates had just drawn.

Xie Xiangling stared at Zhang Lan deadly, his eyes becoming deeper and deeper.

Zhang Lan smiled at the corners of her lips from beginning to end, as if the previous discord had never happened at all, and there was neither panic nor apprehension in her expression, her expression was indifferent.

Xie Xiangling's hands clenched the handkerchief tightly under the bookcase, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, very unhappy.

It's hateful, this chapter Lan Fang was rude to himself, so disrespectful, but there was no trace of introspection!

I really don't know how to lift, I don't know what to do.

Xie Xiangling clenched the handkerchief in his hand tighter and squinted.

At this time, Zhang Lan walked to Xie Xiangling's bookcase and said with a smile: "Miss Xie Liu, I'll collect the paintings." As she spoke, she bowed down to receive the painting in front of Xiang Ling......

Xie Xiangling stared at Zhang Lan's hand for a moment, and when her fingers touched the silk, Xie Xiangling suddenly raised her hand to get the pen to wash, and her elbow hit the back of Zhang Lan's hand.

Xie Xiangling washed the pen in his hand, and the ink-stained sewage in it splashed out of the pen wash, and a puddle of ink was sprinkled on the white silk, which was shocking.

The collision between the two immediately attracted the attention of several girls around them, and several of them looked at the two.

"Xie Liu......" The girl in Tsing Yi on Xie Xiangling's right wanted to ask her what was wrong, but she was interrupted by a sharp female voice before she could say two words.

"Zhang Lan!" Xie Xiangling raised his voice violently and shouted angrily, "What are you doing?!" ”

Her high-pitched and excited voice was very harsh in the water pavilion.

After the words fell, there was silence in the water pavilion.

At this time, since the people who hadn't noticed it had also heard the movement, everyone followed the sound and looked at Xie Xiangling and Zhang Lan, with different expressions, either raising their eyebrows suspiciously, or showing curious eyes, or smiling rather than smiling, or looking expectant.

There was still a person between Duanmu Fei and Xie Xiangling, about a foot away, and when he looked at it, he could still vaguely see that the painting in front of Xie Xiangling was stained with a pool of black and gray ink, and Duanmu Fei raised his eyebrows.

Zhang Lan, who had originally bowed down to collect the painting, straightened up again, lowered her eyes to look at the smudged painting, and her long and thick eyelashes trembled slightly.

At this moment, she stood against the light, the expression on her face was blurred, her figure was as delicate as a willow, but her standing posture was straight, like a clump of green bamboo in the wind, tall and tough.

Seeing that Zhang Lan was silent, Xie Xiangling felt proud and stood up from behind the bookcase.

"Zhang Lan," Xie Xiangling stared at Zhang Lan with a frown, and asked, "Why did you hit my hand just now?" Did you deliberately smudge my paintings? ”

"What's your intention?!"

Xie Xiangling raised his hand and pointed at Zhang Lan's nose and reprimanded, each word was higher than the other, aggressive.

Zhang Lan was still silent, looking at Xie Xiangling quietly, with a dignified demeanor and indifferent eyes, even if she was scolded by Xie Xiangling at the moment, she was also neither humble nor arrogant.

In contrast, Xie Xiangling looked like a shrew in the market, and her demeanor and demeanor were all forgotten.

As Xie Xiangling's voice reprimanded, the atmosphere in the Water Pavilion became more and more tense, and there seemed to be sparks in the air.

The temperature seems to drop sharply, and it is entering a cold autumn.

Everyone else was silent, almost everyone present knew the queen's intentions, and also knew that Xie Xiangling would be the concubine of the fourth prince in the future, and Zhang Lan would be the side concubine.

Many of the girls present are from famous families, and the details of the Xie family are very clear, the Zhang family is a century-old hairpin family, and the Xie family is just a relative, with no power, no power and no background, compared with the two families, the Zhang family must be more noble.

Xie and Zhang are probably not thinking about this.

A few girls secretly exchanged glances, in the back house, either the east wind pressed the west wind, or the west wind pressed the east wind. It seems that Xie Xiangling and Zhang Lan have not entered the prince's mansion and started to compete with each other?

Did Zhang Lan do it on purpose, or was it ......

At this time, the Qi family in front moved, got up and walked towards Zhang Lan and Xie Xiangling.

"What's going on?" Qi glanced at the bookcase, and the sewage spilled from the pen wash was not only splashed on the silk, but even the bookcase next to it was stained with a lot of water stains, and the case was in a mess.

Xie Xiangling hurriedly said, "Mr. Qi, it's Zhang Lan...... She deliberately spilled the sewage in the brush wash and ruined my painting. ”

Xie Xiangling's posture was proud, with a bit of righteousness and arrogance.

Qi turned his head again and asked Zhang Lan, "Lan'er, what do you say?" ”

Zhang Lan was blessed and replied calmly and generously: "Sir, when I went to collect the painting just now, Miss Xie Liu bumped my hand......"

Before her words fell, Xie Xiangling had already refuted it: "You are talking nonsense! Even now, you still have to quibble! ”

Xie Xiangling looked at Zhang Lan and shook his head in disappointment, and then looked at Qi again, "I have heard that Mr. Qi has a noble and decent character, and I don't think I will deliberately protect my students, I have a witness here." ”

Xie Xiangling casually pointed to the girl in Tsing Yi on the right side, and said lightly: "You should have seen it, right?" ”

The girl in Tsing Yi nodded without thinking, and echoed: "Yes, I just saw it with my own eyes, it was Miss Zhang Wu who deliberately bumped into Miss Xie Liu." ”

Xie Xiangling glanced at Zhang Lan, didn't even bother to hide the provocation in his eyes, looked at Qi again, and said with a smile: "Please also ask Mr. Qi to uphold justice." ”

Xie Xiangling raised his delicate chin, and there was a bit of pride in his pride.

It's a dismount.

As my mother said, before these concubines pass through the door, I must hold them down to the death, otherwise these little sluts will not know how thick the sky is.

Thinking that Fang Cai Zhang Lan not only rejected him in public, but also mocked himself offensively, the anger in Xie Xiangling's heart continued to rise.

Zhang Lan is to blame for everything, if Zhang Lan had bowed his head to himself from the beginning, he would not have come to this point!

It's good.

I also happened to take this opportunity to let these noble ladies see who is respectful and who is inferior between her and Zhang Lan.

"......" Qi Shi frowned, his eyes slightly condensed.

She must have believed Zhang Lan, but this "human witness" ......

Xie Xiangwan glanced at a girl in cuiyi behind her right again, this time, she didn't say anything, but the girl in cuiyi had already understood what she meant, and she also testified loudly: "I also saw it, it was Miss Zhang Wu who bumped into Miss Xie Liu." ”

The corners of Xie Xiangwan's lips curled slightly, and the breath that had been blocked in her heart for more than an hour was finally swept away, and her whole body was a lot more relaxed.

In this game, Zhang Lan was doomed.

The girl in Tsing Yi looked at Xie Xiangling's face, and said again: "Miss Zhang, who is not a sage or a sage, you can admit your mistake to Miss Xie Liu." I don't think you meant it......"

Xie Xiangling casually dusted off the dust that didn't exist at all on his cuffs, waiting for Zhang Lan to bow his head.

Miss Tong walked up to Zhang Lan from behind and kindly persuaded: "Miss Zhang, knowing your mistakes can improve a lot, you can give Miss Xie Liu a cup of tea." ”

"Tea ceremony?" Zhang Lan raised her eyebrows.

"yes." Miss Tong nodded, and said earnestly, "I have known Miss Xie Liu for many years, she has always been generous, you gave her tea, and today this matter will be revealed." ”

The smile on the corner of Xie Xiangling's mouth became stronger, and he looked at Miss Tong with satisfaction, feeling that this person was very eye-catching.

What the?! The other people present gasped when they heard this, and their expressions were subtle and complicated.

Even the young girls who have not left the cabinet know that whenever the concubine passes through the door, she must offer tea to the main wife, and the main wife takes the tea, which can be regarded as acknowledging the identity of the concubine, and the royal family is no exception.

Xie Xiangling is the future concubine of the fourth prince, and Zhang Lan is the side concubine, judging from the relationship between the two, it is not so much to make Zhang Lan make amends, but to let Zhang Lan pay tribute to Xie Xiangling in advance.

If Zhang Lan saluted this cup of tea, I am afraid that after passing the door in the future, she will no longer be able to raise her head in front of Xie Xiangling, and she will be even lower than the other concubine of the Zheng family.

Although the words were said by Miss Tong, since Xie Xiangling did not refute it, that is, she wanted to take this opportunity to suppress Zhang Lan.

Everyone's hearts were bright, some people looked at Zhang Lan, some people quietly looked at Xie Xiangling, and some people were watching how the Qi family would react.

The water pavilion fell silent again.

Silence crept, and even time seemed to slow down.

The smug look on Xie Xiangling's face was even greater, and he enjoyed the feeling of being in the spotlight and winning.

"Mr. Qi," Xie Xiangling said with a smile, his tone deliberately dragged on slowly, "There are all kinds of human and material evidence, Mr. can't be frank." ”

"Heh......"

Suddenly, a burst of chuckling sounded, the laughter was soft, and the sound of branches and leaves outside the window was intertwined, breaking the contemplation and depression of this life.

Everyone's eyes brushed back to the laughter.

The girl in a scarlet skirt smiled slightly, and on her beautiful and delicate little face, the pear vortex was shallow and smiling.

"Human and physical evidence?" Duanmu Fei looked at Xie Xiangling, raised his right eyebrow, and seemed to be asking.

It's this Duanmu Scarlet again! Xie Xiangling condescendingly looked at Duanmu Fei, who was sitting behind the bookcase not far away, his heart was full of disgust, and he said coldly: "Duanmu Fourth Girl, these candidates present are human witnesses, and my painting is physical evidence, isn't this matter unclear?!" ”

Xie Xiangling's eyes narrowed into a line, showing a little impatience and arrogance, and said secretly: This Duanmufei really likes to meddle in things. Even other people's "housework" wants to meddle, they don't know how to judge the situation, and they are extremely stupid!

The two girls looked at each other, one was domineering, and the other was smiling.

Duanmu bent her eyebrows and stood up, her small chin raised slightly, and the same action was done by her, but with a little playfulness and agility.

Duanmu Fei ignored Xie Xiangling, and looked at Qi with a clear gaze as clear as water, "Mr. Qi, what I just saw with my own eyes is that Miss Xie Liu deliberately bumped into Miss Zhang Wu." ”

"I'm a witness."

Duanmu smiled calmly, and blinked at Qi quickly, with a trace of cunning light in his eyes that were bent like the moon, and a watery moon flowed between his delicate eyebrows.

There was silence again in the water pavilion.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little quieter.

The complicated eyes of the surrounding girls glanced between Duanmufei and Xie Xiangling, there was still a girl between Duanmufei and Xie Xiangling, everything happened unexpectedly, and Duanmufei couldn't see it at all.

Xie Xiangling's face sank in an instant, and his gaze was fixed on Duanmu Fei's face, "You are talking nonsense!" ”

Duanmu is clearly talking nonsense with his eyes open!

Duanmu didn't care about Xie Xiangling's hostility, he still had crooked eyebrows and eyes, and he looked well-behaved.

She walked towards Xie Xiangling unhurriedly, stopping next to her bookcase.

"As for this physical evidence," Duanmu Fei raised his hand and pointed to the canvas on the bookcase, "This is indeed physical evidence, Miss Xie Liu deliberately bumped into Miss Zhang Wu, and the sewage in the brush wash will be sprinkled on the canvas, so this painting is physical evidence." ”

"There are all the human and material evidence, Miss Xie Liu, it was you who deliberately touched the porcelain and framed others."

In the Water Pavilion, only Duanmufei's voice echoed in the air, with a sense of nonchalance, but unquestionable.

Qi almost didn't applaud Duanmufei, and sighed in his heart: This little girl is interesting!

The corners of her lips were hooked, her face was smiling, and her eyes were as gentle as the warm sun.

Xie Xiangling was the opposite, staring at Duanmu Fei's eyes gloomy like a poisonous snake, and snorted coldly: "Fourth girl Duanmu, it's clear that you are a fool!" It's just because you're friendly with Zhang Lan that you deliberately splashed dirty water on me. By your words, what is enough to believe! ”

Xie Xiangling said word by word, almost gritting his teeth.

That's right, this is just the testimony of Duanmufei alone, but there are two people's testimony on his side.

The two people around Xie Xiangling all looked at Duanmu Fei with disdain, disapproving.

This Duanmu Fourth Girl didn't want to think about it, with Xie Xiangling's identity, I'm afraid that even the three gentlemen of the female school would not dare to offend her!

"Sixth Miss Xie, I'm not the only one who sees it," Duanmu raised his eyebrows and looked at Xie Xiangling innocently, "How could it be my words?" ”

Duanmu Fei slowly looked around at the few candidates beside him, and asked with a smile, "You all saw it too, right?" ”

The corners of Xie Xiangling's lips hooked a mocking smile, Duanmu Fei, is this learning from himself? ! It's really overwhelming!

Xie Xiangling raised his head and looked around at everyone, "You want to think clearly before answering!" Don't be stupid enough to be used as a gunman! Xie Xiangling didn't hide the threat in his words, and the corners of his lips curled.

The candidates secretly clutched their handkerchiefs, and their eyes were complicated.
