Doting on concubines and destroying wives?I am no longer the mistress of Houmen!

Chapter 167

"My lord?"

Lin Yunwan looked at Qi Lingheng.

From the moment he went up to the attic, he was very strange. Although his expression didn't change, she always felt that he was different from usual today.

"I'm fine. Say what you want to say."

Qi Lingheng stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the scholars in the Jishan Society, his expression became much calmer.

Lin Yunwan pressed the booklet.

Qi Lingheng turned to her and asked, "Why didn't you say anything?"

Lin Yunwan said lightly: "I didn't intend to say anything to you."

She just took out the brochure and told the prince that she was fully prepared and told him not to worry.

Instead of telling him who she has taken a fancy to.

Qi Lingheng chuckled lightly: "Can't you talk to me?"

Lin Yunwan lowered her head slightly and said, "...No."

"Why is that?"

Lin Yunwan raised her head, but saw that Qi Lingheng asked very seriously.

Does he really not know?

She can tell him what she is doing now, but she doesn't want to tell him anything too personal!

"My lord, what do you think?"

Lin Yunwan squeezed the booklet tightly.

Qi Lingheng smiled slightly and shook his head.

Lin Yunwan was very... helpless.

She really didn't know what the prince was thinking.

Doesn't he know that men and women have great defenses?They don't talk about great defense anymore, don't they even talk about the difference between men and women?

"Miss Lin, they have started."

Lin Yunwan heard the sound and saw that the scholars in the Jishan Society had already drawn up the topic and read their articles in turn.This is all prepared in advance.

The distance is a bit far, they can hear some sentences, but they can't hear the complicated ones clearly.

"Arguing about 'the way of learning'."

Qi Lingheng had good ears and heard it.

Lin Yunwan even vaguely guessed their topic of debate, she said: "This is a topic debated by disciples of the School of Psychology and Neo-Confucianism at the Goose Lake meeting."

"Ah."

Qi Lingheng nodded lightly, but he really wanted to hear what the scholars of Jishan Club could argue about.

Seeing that Lin Yunwan wasn't listening seriously, he asked quietly: "Aren't you going to choose someone from them? Why don't you read it?"

Lin Yunwan nodded and continued to look into the courtyard.

But her mind was not on them.

...My lord is really very strange today.

They shouldn't be watching the scholars of Jishan Club together in the attic, right?

But she really wanted to take a good look at the people below, she couldn't just come to Xiaoxiang Pavilion if she wanted to.

"Which one do you like?"

Qi Lingheng asked Lin Yunwan.

Lin Yunwan turned her head slowly and said, "...still watching."

Although they couldn't quite hear what was being said, their behavior, language and demeanor were clear.

With simple portraits and introductions, she recognized three of them.

Qi Lingheng said slowly: "Tell me, which ones did you choose?"

"...?"

Lin Yunwan took another look at Qi Lingheng, and then asked, "Does the lord want to give me a reference?"

Qi Lingheng looked at her inscrutablely.

Does he seem to mean it?

A misunderstanding is a misunderstanding.

Qi Lingheng smiled slightly and said, "Why not?"

Lin Yunwan thought secretly, there is nothing wrong with it.

When the prince comes to Jiang Qian, he must know Jiang Qian better than she does.Maybe there are some big family secrets that neither she nor Dong Shuangshuang know, but the prince knows about it.

"Those three."

Lin Yunwan talked about the positions of those three people, and the one she liked the most, Yan Jingzong.

"Yan Jingzong?"

Qi Lingheng only mentioned this person, because when Lin Yunwan talked about him, her tone was different, as if she liked him very much.

Lin Yunwan misunderstood, so she asked: "The prince has heard of this person?"

Qi Lingheng shook his head and said, "No."

Lin Yunwan frowned, and asked: "Then why..." Do you only care about Yan Jingzong?

Qi Lingheng glanced at her and said, "His name, you should think about it carefully."

Lin Yunwan didn't expect anything strange.

Qi Lingheng couldn't help reminding her: "There was a treacherous minister in the previous dynasty, Xu Jingzong——Yan Jingzong. Do you agree?"

Lin Yunwan couldn't help laughing: "It's just that the name is repeated, and the surnames are all different. Maybe it's because the words on the genealogy are inconvenient to change, so it's just a resignation."

Qi Lingheng remained silent.

Lin Yunwan's heart sank slightly, actually thinking about it carefully, the prince's words are not unreasonable.

There are many taboos in the imperial court, such as avoiding the name of the emperor and so on.

After all, Yan Jingzong is also a legitimate son, why did the Yan family give him such a name?Aren't you afraid of delaying his future official career?

"Are you going to take a look at them this way and choose the one that suits you?"

Qi Lingheng asked.

"of course not."

Lin Yunwan would not do such a foolish thing, it would be too hasty to choose her husband and son-in-law just by looking at her from a distance.What is the difference between a blind marriage and a dumb marriage?

It's just that I have suffered from blind marriage and dumb marriage, and I can't eat it anymore.

"I have a small plan, which can roughly test the temperament of several people."

Qi Lingheng did not speak after hearing this.

She didn't even know them, and she couldn't even go down and listen in on what they were arguing about. How could she tell their temperament?

"What's the trick? Can I smell it?"

Lin Yunwan smiled: "Of course. You have already said that the owner of this garden is your uncle, and I would like to ask you to do me a favor."

Without the prince coming, it would be a bit troublesome for her to do it.

Qi Lingheng really... lost his temper.

"Tell me, what do you want me to do for you?"

Lin Yunwan said: "Please take the pen and paper, I will write an article, quietly send it to the scholars for me, and find someone to read it in public."

It's not difficult.

Qi Lingheng waved his sleeves at Ah Fu: "Go and get it."

"Yes."

Ah Fu took a pen and paper and asked Lin Yunwan to come over: "Girl, please."

Lin Yunwan picked up his pen and wrote an article, which was not a strict stereotyped essay, but it also broke the title of "the method of learning" at the beginning of the article, imitating the pavilion style written by scholars, and then mixed it into scholars' articles , no one can recognize it.

After drying the ink, she was about to send the article to Ah Fu, and said, "Please trouble me, father-in-law..."

"Won't you show me first?"

Qi Lingheng came over.

I wrote it in front of his face, he must be the first person to read her article.

When Lin Yunwan turned her head, the prince looked serious, and really wanted to see what she had written.

"My lord, please take a look."

She sent the article to him.

Qi Lingheng took the article and wanted to read it carefully, but when she saw the first line where she broke the question, she wanted to laugh.

"Miss Lin, I don't seem to know you well enough."

Lin Yunwan was stunned for a moment.

Is the prince making fun of her?

She replied calmly: "The prince and I have always been friends of gentlemen, of course you don't know... I also have a villainous side."

Qi Lingheng smiled without saying a word, and told Ah Fu: "Send it among them, and find someone to read it out in public."

"Yes."

This matter is easy to handle. Among the scholars of Jishan Club, there are some who can neither speak Jiangqian dialect nor official dialect. Human generation reads.

There are so many people with mixed eyes, this article is easy to get mixed in.

"My lord, what do you think of me and the other two you mentioned?"

It took time for the article to be delivered, and it was just waiting, so Lin Yunwan took the initiative to talk to Qi Lingheng.

Qi Lingheng said indifferently: "It's not very good."

Lin Yunwan wondered, the prince seems to dislike everyone today?

I wanted to keep asking him what he had to say, but I decided not to ask.

She is afraid that the person she fancy is either a traitor or a national traitor.
