In front of the Mandarin Duck Building.

Crowded, boiling and surging, it has almost become the most lively place in the entire city of Hangzhou, almost half of the scholars in the city have gathered here, not only that, but also can see a lot of people from other places, do not want to miss even the slightest opportunity to become the prefect of Hangzhou Gu Yan Chenglong fast son-in-law.

In the midst of the noise of people, there was a snow-white light coming from a distance, crossing the sky in an instant, coming to the sky above the ground, and turning into a white shadow on the ground.

It's just quite strange that the ray of light is extremely obvious, but no one in the field can see it.

Bai Qianying is not who Bai Suzhen will be, in fact, it is a gesture to repay her kindness, but it is to end the cause and effect of thousands of years ago, and it is related to her future path to becoming an immortal, so as soon as she heard from Qiao Chen'an's mouth that her benefactor is now downstairs in Mandarin Duck, where can she calm down, for fear that if you delay, you will miss the trace of your benefactor.

But as soon as she landed, Bai Suzhen raised her hand to look ahead, and saw a crowd of people everywhere she looked, and there were many shadows, and she didn't know how many people gathered here, let alone which one would be her benefactor.

After thinking about it for a while, he shouted to a young and handsome scholar beside him, "This prime minister...... May I ask this Xianggong, which of the people in this is Xu Hanwen and Xu Xianggong?"

The man was looking nervously ahead, and suddenly heard someone ask him, he was a little impatient, but he could barely suppress a little anger when he heard a female voice, and turned his head and said, "What ......?"

Halfway through the words, it stopped abruptly, a pair of eyes stared at the woman in front of him stunned, the expression on his face quickly froze, but his mouth opened wide, as if he had seen something incredible, surprised by the beauty and holiness of the woman in front of him, only felt that it was like a fairy descending to earth, but not only did not give birth to the slightest blasphemy, but there was a faint sense of respect, and after reacting, he first bowed, and then he said a little restrained:" It's a coincidence that this lady came, Brother Xu had already passed the first hurdle of choosing a son-in-law, and now he was in the attic. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the mandarin duck tower in front of him.

Bai Suzhen was stared at by this scholar like this, her jade cheeks were slightly red, she nodded slightly, thanked her, and then pinched a trick casually, first hid her figure, and fled to the pavilion.

The scholar suddenly saw the person in front of him disappearing inexplicably, and couldn't help but rub his eyes, but when he looked at it again, he still didn't see the woman, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, thinking that it was just his own illusion, not to mention, how could there be such a beautiful and elegant woman in the world?

However, Bai Suzhen entered the second floor of the Mandarin Duck Tower, only to see that the hall was wide, the tables and chairs were complete, and the furnishings were exquisite, and there were dozens of young scholars standing in the hall at will, most of them with a little nervous and excited on their faces, and from time to time they glanced at the three-story pavilion further above, and it was not difficult to guess that these people were the people who had passed the first round of selection before.

It's just that dozens of people are standing here, but Bai Suzhen is still difficult to distinguish which person is the benefactor she is looking for, her beautiful eyes subconsciously swept towards everyone in front of her, and her eyes crossed over everyone one by one, seeing that most of them were gorgeously dressed, wearing jade rings on their waists, and there was a clanging sound between actions, and only a few people were wearing ordinary people's clothes, which looked a little out of place.

Xu Xian stood on the side of a huge pillar in the hall, bowing his head slightly, his figure was not very tall, he could only be regarded as ordinary, so he was very inconspicuous in the crowd, Bai Suzhen's eyes just glanced at him and ignored it.

At this moment, Xu Xian's hands were clenched, and there were some sweat stains in his palms, originally he couldn't even pass the first step test with his ability, but fortunately, with the help of the two poems that Qiao Chen'an gave him when he left, he became one of the people in this pavilion.

But his own family knows his own affairs, if there are still tests in the future, such as competing for poetry and songs, etc., if there is no accident, he will definitely be eliminated, not to mention that even if he is not better than these, but he has a weak temperament, he doesn't like to compete with others, and in the end he can stand out, and the probability of getting the favor of the prefect's daughter is too low.

Bai Suzhen couldn't tell which was her benefactor, so she could only set up a spell on the side, induce mana, and investigate the past one by one, although this method was a little clumsy, but there was no way.

At this moment, only the sound of footsteps came from the third floor of the pavilion, everyone looked up when they heard the sound, but saw several people looking down against the railing, the first thing to see was the prefect of Hangzhou Gu Yan, followed by standing quietly beside him, holding cloud sideburns, wearing white clothes, soft and weak, lovable, it was the prefect's daughter Gu Xianglian.

The eyes of the scholars were almost all focused on Gu Xianglian, their eyes were full of blazing color, Xu Xianzi also raised his head, and looked at Gu Xianglian with a little emotion in his eyes.

The prefect Gu Yan looked at the dozens of scholars in the hall, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes, and said: "All of you in the hall are well-known talents in my Hangzhou Academy. ”

At this time, I suddenly heard a young scholar dressed in gorgeous purple clothes, embroidered with brocade clouds, and white silk feather boots asking: "Dare to ask the prefect, I don't know what kind of 'providence' method is?"

If Qian Duoduo is here, he will definitely be able to recognize this person as the son of the wealthy gentry Wang family in Hangzhou, although he is studying in the academy, but his learning is really average, it stands to reason that there is not much hope of passing the first round of tests.

Hearing this, the prefect Gu Yan looked at the scholar of the Wang family, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Wang Xian's nephew, the will of heaven is unpredictable, and people's hearts can be determined." Since it is the little girl who wants to choose a husband, the result will naturally be determined by the little girl. After that, a maid held a ball of red hydrangea in her hand and sent it to Gu Xianglian's hand.

Gu Yan on the side stroked his beard and smiled, his eyes narrowed, but a hint of discoloration flashed in his eyes, although he doted on his daughter very much, he was a very good person, he originally wanted to be the master to find a suitable husband for his daughter to marry, but Gu Xianglian said that she would not say anything, and even shed tears in the pavilion every day, she had to follow the stories in those books, and she had to choose her own husband. He couldn't resist it, so he had to go with her.

It's just that there is a lot to be done in this, so as early as a year ago, he deliberately spread the news that he intended to choose a husband for his daughter, but anyone with some background forces and well-informed people will send someone to inquire.

Now most of the dozens of people in the hall are actually from the families of rich gentry, or the descendants of colleagues and friends in the DPRK and China, these people have already received news from other places in advance, so they have made preparations early, and it is easy to pass the first level.

Only Xu Xian waited for less than ten people, and they were really shortlisted by virtue of their own talents.

Gu Xianglian is just a daughter's family, she has been raised in the boudoir since she was a child, and she has lived for a long time, even if she has read a lot of poetry and scriptures, how can she know all the ways and the way?

In fact, for Gu Yan, this choice of son-in-law is just a formality.

Gu Xianglian took the hydrangea from the maid's hand, and looked at the people below with a slightly red face, her beautiful eyes seemed to contain infinite affection, and her eyes swept over everyone one by one.

When Gu Xianglian's eyes fell on the person standing by the pillar, there was a hint of doubt in her beautiful eyes, and others wanted to show her best side in order to get her blue eyes, but only this person lowered his head, and his body seemed to be half leaning on the pillar, as if he was dragging bamboo in the wind, and it seemed that he could bend at any time, and his body seemed to have the same weakness as himself.

I don't know why, my heart suddenly trembled, I only felt that this person in the hall was so similar to myself, it seemed that he was sympathetic, he had an idea in his heart, he gently raised his hand, grabbed the hydrangea with both hands, and threw it towards the person.

Xu Xian, who lowered his head, suddenly heard a burst of screams and shouts in the hall, looked up, but saw a big red hydrangea flying straight towards him, subconsciously reached out to catch it, and grabbed it firmly in his hand.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly froze, all the sounds suddenly disappeared, and the silent needle drop could be heard, as if the sound of a group of people's hearts breaking could be heard.

Xu Xian held the red hydrangea in his hand, and looked up at the three-story pavilion in shock, but it happened to meet the gaze cast by Gu Xianglian.

Gu Xianglian's jade cheeks were suddenly dyed with two red glows, her jade hand covered her mouth and smiled coquettishly, and her beautiful eyes showed a bit of shyness.

Hangzhou Governor Gu Yan's face suddenly became ugly.

At the same time, Bai Suzhen Hao's wrist flipped, and a light escaped from the jade finger, which disappeared into Xu Xian's body, and when he sensed it carefully, he opened his eyes in an instant, and his beautiful eyes showed a bit of surprise that could not be concealed, and he muttered: "It turned out to be him!"

After looking for a long time, I finally met my benefactor at this moment!

No matter how unwilling Gu Yan was in his heart, but in front of everyone, it was not good to break his promise, so he reluctantly invited Xu Xian to the third floor of the attic, and after a casual and false encounter, he found an excuse to leave.

There are dozens of young talents in this hall, whether in terms of appearance or character, I don't know how much better they are than this kid named Xu Xian, why did their daughter take a fancy to him?

It's just less than half a day's work, the daughter of the prefect of Hangzhou threw a hydrangea and chose Qiantang Xu Xian as her husband, and the news spread quickly from everyone's mouth, and it didn't take long for it to reach the ears of Xu Jiaorong and Li Gongfu.

When I came back from grocery shopping, I stood at the mouth of my alley, speechless for a long time, but I couldn't help but cry and cry.

And Xu Xian's side was immediately surrounded by people after leaving the Mandarin Duck Tower, most of them were his classmates and friends in the academy, and there were many people who were familiar with each other on weekdays, all of whom were congratulating, especially those young scholars, but they were full of envy in their hearts, and secretly sighed that they didn't have such good luck, and this Xu Hanwen ancestor didn't know how much blessing he had accumulated.

Xu Xian, but he still didn't seem to be relieved from the surprise, and was surrounded by everyone walking along the street, and the sun was shining.

But said that after Bai Suzhen knew that Xu Xian was her benefactor, she did not show up at the first time, but just stood quietly on the street corner, watching everyone around Xu Xian's gradually distant figure, since she already knew who her benefactor was, she no longer had to be anxious, as if a big stone had fallen in her heart, this wisp of cause and effect has been understood, then it will be much easier to deduce, and it is easy to calculate the cause and effect.

But how to repay the favor has become a problem now, this is not what she wants to do, but to lend a helping hand to Xu Xian when he is in difficulty, and even save his life, in order to completely end this cause and effect.

The kindness of a thousand years ago may not be so easy to repay.

He turned around and walked in the direction of the White Mansion.

......

When Qiao Chen'an woke up, he only felt that his mind was groggy, his body had no strength, his hands and feet seemed to not belong to him, and he saw a familiar figure at the first glance when he opened his eyes, Bai Suzhen saw Qiao Chen'an on the bed open his eyes, and his face couldn't help showing a hint of joy, and said, "Chen'an, you're awake!"

Qiao Chen'an moved his lips, raised his hand on his brow with some difficulty, and frowned: "It hurt......s! Where is this?" he remembered, moving his body.

Bai Suzhen hurriedly put her hand on Qiao Chen'an, put a jade hand on his shoulder, a trace of worry appeared on her face, and said, "You just woke up, your body is still very weak, don't move!"

Immediately, a trace of apology appeared on his face, and his beautiful eyes hung on his face, and he said: "Chen'an, I already know the reason for this matter, it's all Xiaoqing's fault, I didn't expect that I was just absent for a while, and there was such a big mess." ”

sighed and said: "Qing'er, she is really, how can she be so reckless, it's all because I didn't discipline her well, because of her temperament." I'll apologize to you on her behalf!"

Qiao Chen'an was lying on the bed, listening to Bai Suzhen's whispering, looking at the look of apology and self-reproach on her face, she suddenly felt a little funny in her heart, she didn't expect that she who has always been calm would also show such a side, probably no one has ever seen it except herself, she couldn't help grinning, but she touched the muscles in her chest, and suddenly felt a burst of pain, and couldn't help coughing violently.

Bai Suzhen glanced at him, puffed out her jade cheeks slightly, raised her hand angrily and patted him on the chest, and said with a slight annoyance: "You guy, what are you laughing at!"

There was a hint of hesitation on his face, and the jade hand caressed back and forth on his chest through the quilt, and his face couldn't help but flush with a faint flush, how could she ever do such a thing for a man?

But Qiao Chen'an was so seriously injured because of Xiaoqing's misunderstanding, in the final analysis, the reason was still on himself, looking at the pale face of the man in front of him, how could he bear to see him in pain any longer?
