Chapter 252: Intent

It's a pity that such a child has been trapped underground for fifteen years.

It will be better in the future, though.

When Zhu Luan was thinking like this, Zhu Rong spoke again.

"I'll be there too," the teenager said.

Zhu Luan was a little surprised, but not so surprised. "Participating in the national exam?" She asked.

"Hmm," Zhu Rong nodded. Leaning on the boy's warm back, I could feel the vibration of his chest, and his voice seemed to come from the depths of his body.

"It has always been my dream to enter the academy and take the national examination." Zhu Rong said.

Zhu Luan knew it, the first time she entered the secret room underground, she knew it when she saw the shelves full of books and the long sword in the young man's hand.

For Zhu Rong, his life so far has been like a cicada dormant underground, even if he is trapped underground, he has not given up absorbing nutrients, longing for the opportunity to get out of the ground that may never come.

Fifteen years of cicadas, finally have a chance to see the light of day, this is the sad wish of the youth, this is the life of Zhu Rong.

For the nobles surnamed A who could have inherited the title, there was no need to participate in the national examination. Even in the Shendu in his previous life, Zhu Luan had never seen a few nobles with the surname A have such perseverance.

This teenager's ambition to remain undefeated in such adversity is indeed worth looking forward to.

"Then we are opponents," Zhu Luan said with a smile on Zhu Rong's back.

Zhu Rong stopped and turned around, the two looked at each other at a very close distance, and could see the young man's eyes shining with surprise.

"Are you willing to treat me as your opponent?" He said with some excitement.

Although he didn't know why the kid suddenly became happy, Zhu Luan nodded.

"Why are you so happy?" She asked with a smile.

It's not surprising to hear this angry.

Zhu Rong took a new step, walking more and more energetically, but carefully controlled his pace, and said as he walked, "Not everyone can be your opponent," the young man said with a smile, "I have watched it all day, but I have deeply realized this." ”

"It's a great honor to be treated as an opponent by Miss Zhu Jiu," Zhu Rong turned around with Zhu Luan on his back, and Yuying in front of him screamed in shock.

"How can it be so exaggerated," Zhu Luan said with a smile, the young man's footsteps were still very steady, so Zhu Luan didn't feel dizzy at all, she felt very happy about the young man's naughty behavior.

Originally, she was worried that the child would have problems after being stuffed underground for so long, but now it seems that the young man is a little more lively.

The west courtyard of Shou'an Hall appeared in front of the two of them, and Zhu Rong walked into the familiar secret room with Zhu Luan on his back as he spoke.

"This is not an exaggeration at all," Zhu Rong's face smiled, "I'm not the only one who will think this way in the future." ”

……

……

He is not the only one who thinks so.

Snowflakes fell from the sky, dyeing the city of Huizhou into a snow-white patch.

Not long after the twilight cloud meeting, it officially entered February, and Huizhou City fell the heaviest snow of the day.

This heavy snow covered everything like a thick blanket, but it couldn't hide the restlessness of the whole Huizhou.

In February, it means that the prefectural test has arrived.

As in previous years, the Twilight Club is the weather vane of the county exam, and although it has been a while since the Twilight Event, because of the successive county exams, the discussion of the Twilight Club continues unabated.

What's more, this year's Twilight Cloud Club is still so extraordinary, and Miss Zhu Jiu, who suddenly appeared and caught everyone off guard, became the focus of public discussion.

But after the end of the Dusk Cloud Meeting, this Miss Zhu Jiu seemed to have disappeared, and it was rumored that she never appeared in everyone's field of vision after going to Tianquan Academy and Taiping Mountain House respectively.

And the marriage contract between her and Duan Ergongzi, which everyone was most interested in, the British Mansion and the Duan family remained silent at the same time.

Duan Ergongzi closed his door on the grounds of preparing for the township test, and the Duan family also said that before the end of the township test, everything should not be discussed, and no one came forward to explain the marriage contract.

The people of Huizhou, whose soul of gossip was burning, had to guess by themselves, and all kinds of news were flying all over the sky.

Heavy snow fell in the sky, and the people of Huizhou chatted about the fire in the restaurant and teahouse, these things are the best talking points, and the turmoil in the British government, which had not attracted everyone's attention before, also gained everyone's attention.

The British government, which has been ignored by the people of Huizhou for many years, has returned to everyone's field of vision in this strange way.

“…… Two days ago, the old British Duke Zhu Kuan was quietly buried like that, and the scene was shabby, and a daughter cried twice, not even a son who fell into the basin ......"

“…… Didn't the old Englishman have a son......"

“…… The son ran away with her mother......"

“…… Then who was that kid who followed Miss Zhu Jiu that day? I heard it's her brother? ”

“…… Do you think it's a real lineage...... The future of the British ......"

“…… Before, he also broke into Duan's house with a Danshu iron coupon......"

On snowy days, the streets became quieter, the chattering voices in the restaurants became more and more noisy, and the details that had never been noticed before were fished out, and people were discussing in groups.

"I didn't expect our family's affairs to be so eye-catching," a teenager on the second floor stood up when he saw the noisy crowd below.

Because it was a snowy day, he wore a thick cloak and went straight to the second floor with his guards before taking off his hat and shaking off the snow on his body.

After he finished speaking, he looked at the young man in the room who was sitting on a gorgeous velvet blanket and poured himself a drink, "I'm just idle and bored to get the ordered fish, why is Young Master Mu here." ”

"Young Master Zhu is here, how can I let those subordinates receive you?" Mu Kezhi, who was sitting on the velvet carpet, glanced at Zhu Rong who was standing at the door, "You are about to become a celebrity in Huizhou City now." ”

"It's not me, it's my sister," Zhu Rong smiled, "Didn't Young Master Mu not know that I was a person not long ago?" ”

"The whole of Huizhou doesn't know that there is a person like you," Mu Kezhi flicked his fingers slightly, and someone brought a wooden barrel and handed it to Zhu Rong.

Zhu Rong opened it and picked it up, "Well, your mandarin fish is indeed the best pickled," he said with a smile.

"What do you call my family's fish, it makes my son seem to be a fish seller," Mu Kezhi frowned, "The young master of the dignified family surnamed Jia came to the restaurant to get the fish, but my young master was shocked." ”

"I just came out to have fun," Zhu Rong laughed, "I rarely had the opportunity to go out before, but now everything is new." ”

"Oh?" Mu Kezhi narrowed his eyes and looked at the young man in front of him, he had also heard about the affairs of the British Mansion, and the families in Huizhou City had been collecting information about the Zhu family recently.

After all, after so many years, it has reappeared in everyone's sight.

Or in that way.

"You're all out, what about her?" Mu Kezhi stared at Zhu Rong's eyes and asked.

I want to talk about "Yingluan" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
