The fake daughter of a fallen ghost is reborn

Shen Qingtang saw Huo Wuyou from the very beginning.

Seeing that he was also looking here, she lowered her head shyly, but suddenly, she remembered that there was Xue Zhiyi beside her. Her heart skipped a beat and she quietly looked at the person beside her.

Xue Zhiyi was concentrating on watching the field and didn't notice Huo Wuyou's vague gaze at all.

Looking at Huo Wuyou again...well, he didn't notice her at all.

Shen Qingtang held his chin with his hand: This is such a boring spring fair.

……

This room.

Although Huo Wuyou restrained himself from peeking, but in his peripheral vision, when Xue Zhiyi stood up, he couldn't help but draw his gaze over.

Xue Zhiyi suddenly left the table for some reason. He did not go with Xue Runing, Shen Qingtang and the others. He just left with his maid.

Sui Yunlang suddenly came over and asked: "Why are you in a daze all day long? What is there to see there?"

He replied: "Nothing."

Retracting his gaze and sitting up straight, Huo Wuyou poured himself a cup of tea and sipped it slowly.

Beside him, Sui Yunlang was still chattering to him about the very promising candidates in this year's spring examination.

Huo Wuyou pondered for a moment without saying a word, then suddenly stood up and said, "I'm going out for a while."

"What are you going to do again?"

Ignoring Sui Yunlang's voice behind him, he searched for Xue Zhiyi's figure and walked in the direction she had just left.

……

Watching them leave one after another, Shen Qingtang felt extremely sad, with some sadness in her eyes. She blinked to prevent the sadness from overflowing with her tears... Why did Lin'an Hou like Zhiyi?

Fu Rongxin took it all in.

It was really strange. She didn't know what kind of charm Xue Zhiyi had in this life. Not to mention Prince Gong, she even hooked up with Marquis Lin'an without her knowing when.

Her appearance is not outstanding in Huajing, and her talent is not as good as hers. Are those men blind?

But it doesn’t matter, whether it’s Prince Gong or Marquis Lin’an, they are all a bunch of short-lived ghosts!

Looking at Shen Qingtang, who looked disappointed, Fu Rong sighed, "I don't know what happened to Marquis Lin'an. Ever since the game of chuiwan, he always liked to talk to Zhiyi. Now that Zhiyi has left the table, Marquis Lin'an has disappeared."

Shen Qingtang glanced at her sideways and said nothing.

Fu Rongxin smiled and covered her lips. "Speaking of which, the Marquis of Lin'an is handsome and of noble birth. Many ladies have secretly fallen in love with him. I wonder what Miss Shen thinks of the Marquis of Lin'an?"

Taking a deep breath, Shen Qingtang said with an annoyed look on his face: "Miss Fu, we don't seem to be familiar with each other?"

Last time in Changqing Garden, Fu Rongxin had ill intentions towards Zhiyi. Upon hearing her words, Shen Qingtang became even more disgusted.

Looking at Fu Rongxin with contempt, Shen Qingtang said, "Lin'an Hou is not related to me. What he thinks in his heart has nothing to do with me and is not something I can control. What's more, Zhiyi's engagement was granted by His Majesty. Are you saying these words to ruin her reputation? Do you dare to say such things in front of Prince Gong and His Majesty?"

Fu Rongxin's eyes widened and she was stunned for a moment: "Ms. Shen, you misunderstood..."

Shen Qingtang snorted coldly, suppressing the urge to cry because of the bitterness: "Zhiyi is the one who saved my life. No matter what she does, I will not hate her. The same goes for Lin'an Hou. As for whether I have misunderstood, you know it clearly in your heart. I know that you hate Zhiyi. Now you are trying to provoke me. Do I look like a fool?"

Fu Rongxin was a little shocked after being scolded like this... She didn't expect that Shen Qingtang, who looked stupid, was actually a stubborn person.

Her eyelids trembled, and she wanted to grab Shen Qingtang's head and slam it to death on the spot... Shen Qingtang actually dared to talk to her like that! He deserved to die miserably in his previous life!

No wonder she didn’t marry Xue Tingsheng in this life. It turned out that she was saved by that bitch Xue Zhiyi. How hateful!

But she still forced a smile on her face: "I just said it casually, I really didn't mean it in the way you think. Miss Shen, you are too suspicious."

"Cousin, can you please stop targeting my third sister?" Fu Rongxin did not expect that Xue Runing, who had always been taciturn, would speak at this time.

She looked timid, but there was a firmness in her eyes that was rarely seen: "Actually...actually, every time you talk about Third Sister like this, even I can tell that you have bad intentions, not to mention Third Sister and Sister Shen..."

She spoke softly, until finally, she almost huddled up beside Shen Qingtang, but her words still reached Fu Rongxin's ears.

She was so angry that the corners of her mouth trembled a little... Xue Zhiyi really knows how to win people's hearts. Even Xue Runing, who was unknown in her previous life, spoke for her!

Shen Qingtang is fine, but Xue Runing dared to speak so rudely. Who is she? A lowly concubine's daughter! How dare she! I will make my mother marry her off. The worse the better!

Seeing Fu Rongxin's increasingly livid face, Shen Qingtang pulled Xue Runing closer to him and said, "Ignore her."

……

At this moment, Xue Zhiyi didn't know what was happening over there. She went around to the Guanshan Pavilion, where there was a screen and several tables.

After all the scholars have finished answering, their works will be received here, and the invited celebrities will select the articles with clear viewpoints and brilliant writing to be read publicly and then discussed by everyone.

Seeing that the incense stick of time was almost over, she came here early and found the book boy in charge of this place.

The little servant boy looked no more than ten years old. When he saw Xue Zhiyi smiling and staring at him without blinking, he was at a loss for what to do.

"…What do you want from this lady?"

Xue Zhiyi got straight to the point: "After the answer sheets are collected, may I have a look at them?"

The little book boy was a little confused about this strange request: "What do you mean?"

Without waiting for Xue Zhiyi to say anything, Qiuyun handed over an ingot of silver and stuffed it into the servant's hand without saying anything.

The book boy was stunned: "This is inappropriate..."

Qiuyun stuffed another ingot into the boy's pocket, but the boy still kept waving his hands.

It was not until the fifth ingot was stuffed into the little servant that the heavy weight of silver made him waver: "Okay, okay... But, but Miss, you have to tell me, what exactly do you want to do?"

Xue Zhiyi just sighed helplessly: "You also know that only scholars can participate in such a spring gathering. I am just a little girl in the boudoir. I have great ambitions, but I have never had the opportunity to show them. Now I also have many opinions on this topic, so I want to add my own opinions to the answer sheet. This should not be difficult to do, right?"

"But this..." The little servant boy scratched his head.

Seeing this, Xue Zhiyi hurriedly said: "I won't embarrass you, and I won't let anyone find out. I'll just sign my brother's name and say a few words in his name. It'll be fine!"

Looking at Xue Zhiyi's sincere face and the silver in his hand, the little book boy gritted his teeth and said, "Well... well, you have to be quick later. If someone finds out, I'll be finished."

Xue Zhiyi was grateful after getting the permission: "Thank you very much!"

So, after the answer sheets were collected, the little servant stood guard outside the screen. Xue Zhiyi asked Qiuyun to block the way while he quickly searched through the pile of answer sheets.

On the back of each policy essay, there was a piece of paper for signature. Xue Zhiyi searched for a while and finally found Jiang Xu's.

This was not the end. They found another copy in an orderly manner. The handwriting on that policy paper was vigorous and powerful, and every stroke revealed a strong ambition. The name on the note on the back was exactly - Xue Tingliu.

At this moment, a hand suddenly pressed on the stack of policy papers.

Xue Zhiyi was startled and turned around suddenly, only to fall into a pair of extremely beautiful phoenix eyes without any preparation.
