Xie Qingyu knew that this person was Lu Zhuyue, who was known as the first beauty in Jiangnan, no wonder she would be called the first beauty in Jiangnan, she used to think that Xie Youran was already a beautiful person, but she didn't expect that this Lu Zhuyue was on par with Xie Youran.

Xie Youruo has more of a feeling of not eating the fireworks in the world, but Lu Zhuyue has a little more bookish atmosphere in the world, which makes people feel very soft.

"Zhuyue has kept you waiting for a long time, and a few of us have been delayed on the way." Xie Youran hurriedly stepped forward to hold his best friend's arm and said softly.

Xie Qingyu has never seen Xie Youran who loves to laugh like this, she was mostly expressionless before, as if many things had nothing to do with her.

"Sister Zhuyue, I'm here too, and I've also passed the women's official literary exam this time." Xie Youruo saw his sister come forward to greet her best friend at this moment, as if she had been ignored, and hurriedly joined in.

"This time Youruo behaved so well, my sister has to give Youruo a reward." Lu Zhuyue listened to Xie Youruo's words, but also smiled slightly, when she went to Jiangning to find Youran before, Youruo often followed around, she had long regarded this as her own sister.

"Zhuyue, you don't have to get used to her, by the way, Zhuyue, this light rumor also passed the literary test together, and came to participate in the Jiucai election." Xie Youran looked at Lu Zhuyue and smiled, and then saw Xie Qingyu, who was still standing not far from the carriage, and immediately introduced it.

Xie Qingyu keenly saw that a trace of unnaturalness flashed on Lu Zhuyue's face when she heard her name.

"That being the case, it's not too early, so let's go in quickly." Lu Zhuyue also smiled at Xie Qingyu, indicating that she had said hello, and then took Xie Youran and the two sisters directly in, leaving Xie Qingyu standing outside the gate of Lu Mansion alone.

Xie Qingyu was not annoyed, and after taking the baggage, he also walked in with his feet raised.

I have to say that Lu Mansion is a scholarly family, and the decoration in all parts of the house is very elegant.

From the door alone, the white marble steps are also carved with different patterns, two very large stone lions are placed at the entrance of the Lu Mansion, and the handwriting on the plaque is vigorous and powerful, which is not what an ordinary calligrapher can write.

And the couplet at the door is also very elegant, the upper couplet is ten thousand volumes of ancient and modern eternal days, and the lower couplet is a window of dawn to send the passing year, which is extremely rich in artistic conception, but it really highlights the characteristics of love to read.

Xie Qingyu didn't follow Xie Youran, Lu Zhuyue can get along with the Xie sisters very well, presumably she shouldn't have a good impression of herself, why should she be boring, and follow with her eyes.

Sure enough, after a while, a person dressed as a maid came and walked towards the wing room with him.

"Come with me." That Yahuan seemed to be very impatient, and she also knew that she was the concubine of the Xie family and was not favored, and the eldest lady of their family only received Sister Xie Youran.

Xie Qingyu didn't speak, but just walked with the girl.

As soon as I entered the gate of Lufu, I saw a rockery, under the background of the yellow candle flame at night, it seemed to be scattered, and there was no lack of rare green trees on the side.

Yahuan led her through a carved corridor, the crimson wooden pillars on both sides are made of the best rosewood in the deep mountains, bounded by two pillars, every two meters or so, there is a hexagonal carved peony drawing tribute lantern hanging above the corridor.

Xie Qingyu walked for a while at the beginning, and he still knew the way, but the girl ring in the back took him around and around, and walked on a relatively quiet path.

After a while, I finally came to a side room.

It's just that this wing room doesn't look like a star and a half compared to the elegance and luxury of the front hall, and there are only a few dim candles in this side room.

"You're going to stay here for a few days." When the girl saw that she had led the person to it, she said a few words lightly and left.

Miss Xie, now that you are like this, it is only to blame that you have offended someone who should not be offended, Miss Youruo has already written to the eldest lady a few days ago, who let you be so arrogant as a concubine, and bullied the head of the concubine.

You deserve it now! Hmph, I don't know what to fear.

Xie Qingyu didn't feel anything, she originally thought that the Lu family would not let her enter the door of the Lu family because of Xie Youruo and Xie Youran, but now it seems that it is okay.

She had never been to Gusu City before, and this time she went to the Lu family to have a place to live, as for the side room, it was nothing more than a sleep, she came to Gusu City this time to take the female officer exam, and she didn't have the heart to think about anything else at all.

Because it was very late for the Xie family sisters to arrive today, Lu Zhuyue beckoned a few people to rest first, and then think about other things when they were rested on the second day.

After Xie Qingyu entered the wing, the furnishings in the room were extremely simple, just a bed, a table, chairs and benches.

There was nothing left, and even the mattress looked very old.

After a day of running around today, Xie Qingyu also felt very tired, after all, the carriage was very bumpy along the way, compared to a modern car, and I listened to Xie Youruo's constant chatter along the way.

Xie Qingyu felt physically tired and mentally tired along the way, and after cleaning up casually, he lay on the bed and fell asleep after a while.

On the other side, Lufu Qixia Pavilion.

——

Qixia Pavilion, there are clouds as the ancient saying goes, and there are fairies who weave colorful clouds in the nine-fold sky, and they join the world by chance, which makes the world have Caixia all over the world, and the name of Lu Zhuyue's residence is Qixia Pavilion, which shows that Lu Zhuyue is extremely favored by the Lu family.

Even Caixia on the edge of the sky can only live in a pavilion of the Lu family, and this time Lu Zhuyue is compared to Caixia on the edge of the sky, and now she lives in the Lu family.

Qixia Pavilion, from the outside, is just a two-story wooden building, but compared to Xie Qingyu's wing, it can be regarded as brightly lit here, and the exterior of this Qixia Pavilion is made of green bamboo, and you can smell a breath of green bamboo as soon as you enter the door.

The exterior is a small building made of nanmu, and there is a hollow place on the second floor, in which a small desk is built, where a lot of books are placed, and there is a lower table and chair not far from the desk, where you can stay in the summer and enjoy the cool.

On the periphery of the small building, there is a small pond with three taels of lotus flowers, and from time to time a few small goldfish emerge from the water. As soon as Lu Zhuyue came to the Xie family's sisters, she took the two Xie Youran sisters to live in her own yard, and winked at Xie Youruo.

Xie Youran was still a little strange, just now Xie Qingyu was still following behind, he was also excited just now because he hadn't seen his best friend for a long time, and when the group walked to Zhuyue's courtyard, he reacted.

"Zhuyue, my sister is a light rumor." Xie Youran looked at Lu Zhuyue and opened her mouth very suspiciously, but she didn't wait for her to finish asking.

"Leisurely, it's okay, I have ordered someone to take her to live in the wing room today, and the two of you will live with me in Qixia Pavilion today." Lu Zhuyue knew Xie Youran the best, and she understood what she meant.

Xie Youran didn't ask anymore when he heard this, since Zhuyue said so, the light rumor must have lived well in the wing.

"You arrived too late today, my father said before that he would let me take you around Gusu City in the next few days." Lu Zhuyue talked about her father, and knew that Xie Youran and the others were going to come to Gusu City for the exam, but they were very enthusiastic.

It's just that it's getting late today, and it's no longer appropriate to visit, so I have to go to visit early tomorrow.

Then several people entered the Qixia Pavilion.

Lu Zhuyue also lived in Jiangning City before, but later with the promotion of Lord Lu, his family moved to Gusu City, and he rarely returned to Jiangning City for a while, and his relationship with Xie Youran was only correspondence.

But even so, the relationship between them has not faded, when they were young, the two almost grew up together, and at that time, Jiangning City was not rumored to be the Xie family, but the two of Ran Yue.

The day before yesterday, she also heard Youruo's letter that the matter of that concubine bullied Youran, and today she wanted to give her a dismissal, but as far as today is concerned, the concubine did not show the slightest disrespect for Youran, and she should have taken care of outsiders.

But if someone dares to bully Youran, she must make that person look good! What about Xie Qingyu, but she just won the first place in the literary exam, and she didn't care about it.

"Zhuyue, it's been a long time, but I have a lot to say to you." Xie Youran looked at his best friend who he hadn't seen for a long time, and he was also very excited in his heart, and he talked a little more than usual for a while.

"Yes, Sister Zhuyue, my sister knew that she was going to live at Sister Zhuyue's house this time, but she was excited for a few days." Xie Youruo listened to Xie Youran's words, and immediately took it.

"Leisurely, we haven't seen each other for a few years last time we said goodbye."

"I know you love to read, I got a lone book the day before yesterday, let's go, I'll take you to take a look."

Lu Zhuyue also had a smile in her eyes, she was very happy, and pulled Xie Youran towards the house, and Xie Youruo also followed closely behind.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is the next day.

Because of the Jiucai exam, for a while, Gusu City, which was originally very quiet, became crowded, and many young ladies from the family came to Gusu City with small servants to prepare for the exam.

Xie Qingyu had just finished washing up in the morning, and was just about to go out, when she ran into Yahuan who was about to look for her.

"Miss Xie's rumor, my young lady is invited."

Xie Qingyu glanced up and found that this person was the Yahuan who led the way last night, presumably it should be a certain Yahuan in Lu Zhuyue's yard.

"Lead the way." Xie Qingyu raised his eyebrows, and then said lightly.

The two of them didn't speak along the way, they were all hovering in the path of the Lu family, because it was dark last night, she didn't see the scenery of the Lu family, and when she looked at it again during the day, she felt very poetic.

Walking and walking, I finally arrived at Qixia Pavilion.

When Xie Qingyu arrived at the door of Qixia Pavilion, Xie Youran and the others also happened to come out.
