"Brother, I have something to tell you."

When Ye Qiong came to Huaijin Pavilion, where Ye Jin lived, Ye Jin was preparing for the mid-year entrance examination.

The mid-year examination is the most important exam in Wenshan Academy in addition to the annual exam, even if Ye Jin is as smart as Ye Jin, he does not dare to be careless, and has been locked in his study in recent days to review his homework, and even his grandmother, Mrs. Shen, has exempted Ye Jin from asking for peace every day.

Seeing Ye Qiong coming, Ye Jin raised his head from the page with a smile, and his tone was relaxed: "What is the little sister looking for me?" ”

Ye Qiong said with a solemn face: "Brother, please step down, I have something important to tell you." ”

Ye Jin put away his old smile at this time, although he was confused, he still beckoned everyone in the study to retreat, leaving only his henchmen to guard the door.

Ye Qiong saw that the idler had cleared, so she carefully took out the letter from her arms and said, "Brother, let's take a look at this letter that I intercepted from He Yanyan and almost put in my father's study." ”

Ye Jin's heart jumped, and he took the letter with confusion, only glanced at it slightly, and then cried out "ah", and when he looked down, just a letter of about 100 words made him so frightened that he was sweaty, and asked Ye Qiong with trembling lips: "Little, little sister...... This letter, this letter was really intercepted by you from He Yanyan's hand and was originally going to be placed in your father's study? ”

Ye Qiong nodded.

"What do they want to do? Framed, raided, and put the charge of rebellion on our heads? Ye Jin slammed on the table, and the books on the table were swept to the ground by him, and it was a mess.

Ye Qiong bent down to pick up the books on the ground, and slowly said, "Brother, you have to calm down." They've done it, and now I've only intercepted a letter, but we don't know what they're going to do. ”

Ye Jin's eyes were scarlet, and he sat down again after listening to Ye Qiong's advice, but his chest was still undulating.

Ye Qiong continued: "Brother, do you remember those superstitious people in the temple? You may not know that the rumor of 'calling souls' first spread from the bridge construction site under the jurisdiction of my father and uncle, saying that the bridge pillars had to press people's hair and birth dates to be stable. My father and uncle didn't handle this matter well, and in order to build a bridge to drive away the superstitious people, they let the rumors ferment, and then they were caught flawed. Now, the Ye family has nothing to do with this matter. ”

Seeing that Ye Jin's face gradually lost blood, Ye Qiong gave the final blow ruthlessly: "Brother, the disaster of the Ye family's destruction is just around the corner!" ”

Ye Jin covered his face and took a deep breath, and only let go after a long time, his face became calm, but his eyes were like torches: "Little sister, since you can intercept this letter and arrange the temple, are you already prepared for this case?" ”

Seeing Ye Jin adjust, Ye Qiong said, "My brother should have discovered that I have been very close to my brother of the Lu family recently. He used to walk the city and had his own connections, and I only learned about these things when I heard him say it, and I have been asking him to help me gather information ever since. Brother, he is a reliable and upright man, and we should cooperate with him. ”

Ye Jin's expression was a little hesitant, it was not that he didn't believe Lu Shaodan, but this matter was very important, and the Lu family was an outsider after all. But Xiaomei trusts him so much, and Lu Shaodan has also been involved in this matter, so it is better to cooperate with him in the future.

"Little sister, why don't you give this letter to the elders?" Ye Jin still has questions.

Speaking of this, Ye Qiong's expression became even colder: "Brother, this letter can't be known to the elders for the time being. You should know that your uncles, fathers, and even grandmothers are straightforward people who will hand over letters directly to their families. But this letter is a double-edged sword, and it cannot be taken out until it is absolutely necessary. With the content of this letter, it is conceivable what kind of big waves will be set off in the court, and the Ye family is still weak now, how can they survive in this big wave? Moreover, because of this letter, the object of the Heavenly Family's suspicion will be added to the Ye family, and the Ye family cannot afford such suspicion! ”

Ye Qiong saw it in the palace in the previous life, and now His Majesty and the Queen Mother are suspicious.

Speaking of the matter of concubines and concubines, several concubines will receive notices of sleeping at the same time every day, but it is not certain which palace His Majesty will go to, and sometimes he will not even go. The same is true of the Queen Mother, the people around her have to be replaced every once in a while, and the only ones who have been left by her side are the two female officials brought by the Queen Mother from her mother's house, Jixiang and Ruyi.

Ye Jin looked at Ye Qiong's gaze with some surprise, he naturally knew that his little sister was the most talented and intelligent among his peers, and even Ye Yu's cousin couldn't compare, but he never expected Ye Qiong to be able to analyze the emperor's mental tricks and court scheming so much, he said: "Okay, brother, listen to what you say, I'll go talk to Shaodan about it now." ”

"Brother Shaodan's connections are all in the market, brother, you are different from him, you are a child of an official family, you can divide labor and cooperate." Ye Qiong suggested.

Ye Jin's gaze was even more complicated, and he solemnly saluted Ye Qiong, which made Ye Qiong startled: "Little sister, my brother is not as good as you, the Ye family relies on you." ”

Ye Qiong's nose is slightly sour.

She is not strong, and her brother is the hope of the Ye family. If it weren't for the fact that his brother in his previous life was fifteen years old and had not yet achieved fame, the Ye family would not have been without a fight.

Her brother wants Toad Palace to be proud of the spring breeze. Before that, she must protect her brother and the Ye family.

Wenshan Academy's mid-year entrance examination arrived as scheduled.

He Yanyan sticks to Ye Qiong every day during the exam, walking, sitting, lying and imitating everywhere, as if she can absorb Ye Qiong's talent and make herself do well in the exam.

Ye Qiong did not refuse her, but innocently told He Yanyan the news: "I heard that the invigilator this time is a rather old master, and some students were not arrested for making cheat sheets in front of him last year." ”

He Yanyan was moved in her heart, but she didn't say it.

On the day of the year's high school entrance examination, He Yanyan really made a cheat sheet, but was caught red-handed, and Zou Laoshan personally led people to visit He Shangshu and asked him: "Dare to ask if this is the good daughter raised by He Shangshu?" ”

He Yanyan disappeared for three days, and three days later came to the school with an unerased slap print, and saw Ye Qiong's eyes full of resentment.

Ye Qiong cared about her with a smile: "Yan Yan, what's wrong with your face?" Isn't it just that cheating was almost blacklisted, and my uncle was too ruthless. ”

He Yanyan smiled and dealt with Ye Qiong: "I made a mistake, I should be punished." ”

Ye Qiong sneered in her heart.

Now that the soul case has not happened, the He family naturally has to stabilize themselves, otherwise with such an obvious instigation, the He family would have come to retaliate a long time ago.

The He family can't retaliate, and neither can they themselves, but they can still do it by charging a small interest, so they said those words in front of He Yanyan.

Ye Qiong thought about it, and began to worry about the letter again.

If you want to prove that this letter has nothing to do with the Ye family at all, you still have to find some proof.

Ye Qiong looked at Ye Yu, the lobby sister who was teaching in the academy.

After class, Ye Qiong stopped Ye Yu and asked her opinion.

"Handwriting identification?" Ye Yu was a little surprised, and thought about it, "I really have a candidate here, your cousin-in-law has an uncle and grandfather who is a great Confucian in the world, and he just came back from traveling in the past few days." He is good at calligraphy and studies calligraphy, and he has a lot of research on handwriting, so why don't you ask him? ”

Ye Qiong's face was bitter: "However, I heard that Mr. Zou has a strange temper......

"It's fine." Ye Yu smiled incomprehensibly, "Uncle and grandfather, I love talent the most." ”

Ye Qiong followed her brother Ye Jin to the end of Xinghua Alley.

Ye Qiong had heard Xie mention earlier that he suddenly moved into a family surnamed Zou at the end of the alley, but he didn't expect it to be the old Mr. Zou.

Ye Qiong came out with her brother on the pretext of visiting relatives and neighbors this time, and she didn't take a carriage because of the close distance, so she followed Ye Yu's advice and walked to the front of Zou's house on foot as low-key as possible, but saw that there were already two or three people standing in front of Zou's house.

The tall young man heard the footsteps, glanced back at them, and raised his beautiful eyebrows arrogantly: "It's you, I remember, it seems to be the Ye family?" ”

Ye Qiong was also a little surprised, she didn't expect to meet Zhang Jingzhi again in front of Mr. Zou's door.

Ye Jin reacted first and saluted: "Ye Jin has seen the prince of Korea. ”

Ye Qiong also followed up with a blessing ceremony, and Zhang Jingzhi asked Ye Jin: "This is your little sister in the family?" ”

Ye Jin was a little nervous and moved slightly to block Ye Qiong, and nodded yes.

Zhang Jingzhi shook his head, seemed to think they were boring, didn't pay attention to them anymore, and talked to the little boy in front of the door: "Little scholar, I've been here for several days, does Mr. Zou really don't want to see me?" ”

"Nobody, nobody." The little scholar snorted, "You come every day, and the old gentleman is almost annoyed to death." ”

Zhang Jingzhi was not angry, but became even happier: "Really? When the old gentleman didn't see me, I continued to come, trying to make him angry and open the door. ”

Ye Jin's face was strange, but Ye Qiong was used to it.

Zhang Jingzhi also held a funeral for himself, what is this.

The boy stared, and just as he wanted to turn around and report, the door had been "snapped" open.

In the door, Mr. Zou was so angry that he pointed at Zhang Jingzhi and scolded: "You get out of here!" I won't take you as a disciple! ”

Zhang Jingzhi pressed the hand that Mr. Zou pointed at him, and said with a smile: "The old gentleman hasn't asked me about my knowledge yet?" ”

Mr. Zou was stunned, he couldn't get off the stage, he was a talent, and he had heard that this kid from the Korean government was amazing, but this kid's personality was ......

Ye Qiong, who was standing on the side, had a flash of inspiration and said: "It's better to be like this, the prince of Korea said that he is good at learning, I will choose a word with you to compare and say, whoever wins, Mr. Zou will invite whoever is a guest, how about it?" ”

When Zhang Jingzhi heard this, he looked at the girl in front of him again from head to toe.

The little daughter of the Ye family, who is only about twelve years old, has a delicate and beautiful appearance, but this brain is ......

Zhang Jingzhi was disdainful and said, "Okay." ”

Mr. Zou wanted to refuse, but when he saw Ye Qiong's confident look on his face, his tongue turned a corner: "Okay." ”

Zhang Jingzhi spoke first: "The son said on the river: 'The deceased is like Sifu! Day and night! This means that time is like flowing water, flowing day and night. Everyone in the world says that this sentence is to make us cherish the time in front of us, but I think there is another truth in this sentence, that is, everything is rushing with time, and the general trend cannot be reversed. ”

Mr. Zou stroked his beard, feeling a little satisfied. Being able to draw inferences from the ancients is indeed good.

Mr. Zou looked at Ye Qiong again, but saw that Ye Qiong's eyes were slightly red, but he said in a firm tone: "What I want to talk about is 'the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the son wants to raise but does not wait'." ”
