"What are you going to do?" After asking, Yang Zhi laughed at himself again.

"Pirates harassed the people along the coast in April and September last year, you should remember." Xie Ziqi said.

"You sure are crazy."

"There is one more thing that needs to be done by you." Xie Ziqi didn't pay attention to the expression of sadness and joy on Yang Zhi's face.

"What's the matter this time?"

"It's not yet time, before you know it, I'm leaving first."

After Xie Ziqi left, he sat on his back by the window for a long time, looking at the half moon, which covered the earth with its brilliance.He was full of emotions in his heart, and he finally came to this step.

Without Xie Ziqi's encouragement, he probably would never have taken this step, and would only have thought about it countless times in his heart, and still stayed in the Xiangfu.

At best, he was just an aide in the prime minister's mansion, and at worst, he was just a poor aide who was not valued by the prime minister. After his death, no one knew what he had done.

He finally took this step.

Life has never been the same.

He made a choice between brilliance and mediocrity.

Even in death, he still has no regrets.

The next day, the sky brightened.

Xie Ziqi took the letter sent by Yang Zhi and studied it carefully. Ziqi took up a pen and wrote a letter that resembled the font of the master. He felt that something was wrong, so he put the letter aside and rewrote it.From morning to night, until Haishi.Ziqi finally fully grasped the elements of Liu Wuji's font, not the first image, but ten to ten images.Even if it was put in front of Liu Wuji, Ziqi was confident that Liu Wuji couldn't tell which one was the original and which one was the imitation.

After contemplating for a moment, Xie Ziqi wrote more than a dozen letters one after another, dried the letters, sealed them again, cut them open again, and sealed them again, leaving a trace of flaws in the resealed letters.

Xie Ziqi hid all the letters in a bookcase, covered with books.

Then put the book case on the desk.

Xie Ziqi hung calligraphy and paintings all over the wall, and then arranged books, brushes and inkstones in a haphazard manner.The whole study room was clean and tidy in the past, rather messy.

Xie Ziqi satisfactorily inspected, locked and left, and went to Zhiyuan to return the letter to Yangzhi.

"From today onwards, you will never step into Zifang again."

Yang Zhi was stunned when he heard the words.

Xie Ziqi took out a kit from his sleeve and handed it to Yang Zhi, "If you don't see me within ten days, open this kit."

"Okay." Yang Zhi nodded, looking at the bright moonlight outside the window, "Let's talk again."

"Okay, the rule this time is that the loser wins." Xie Ziqi looked up and took a seat opposite him.

"Okay, okay, okay." Yang Zhi called out three times.

Under the same moonlight, the residence of the third prince.

The third prince sat in the gazebo and poured himself a drink, while a man in black knelt in front of him.

"How about it?"

"My lord, I will publish the list at the time of tomorrow, and I will parade the hairpin flowers on Zhuque Street at the end of the day."

"How's the ranking?"

"Zhao Bingrui from Jiangnan is No.1, Liu Pei from Jiangbei is No.2, Wang Dang from Southwest is No.3..."

"Okay, this king knows." The third prince interrupted him, and then ordered: "Take Wen Chou and Wen Chou to the prime minister's mansion to pick up Xie Ziqi from Zhuque Street before tomorrow."

"Yes, master, this subordinate will retire."

Time passed, and it was tomorrow.Xie Ziqi got up as usual, drank tea, and read at Chenshi; at Sishi, picked up the scissors and cut off the plum blossoms in the yard as usual; at noon, he ate and paced.

Not a moment later, three men unexpectedly arrived in Zifang's courtyard.

"coming."

"Are you from the Third Prince?"

Xie Ziqi, who was pacing in the yard, was not surprised at all, and said flatly.

The two of Wen Chou looked at Hei Hong, who was the leader, and Hei Hong nodded.

"Give me a quarter of an hour."

Heihong agreed.

Xie Ziqi turned around and went to the study, picked up a pen and started to paint, half a quarter of an hour later, Xie Ziqi left the study.

"You can go."

The three of them were silent and walked out of the prime minister's mansion together.

From the beginning to the end, everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion turned a blind eye, until they reached the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the two guards, one left and one right, looked at the three big men with high strength values, and then at Xie Ziqi.

The two asked together: "Xie Ziqi, have you been driven away by the Prime Minister?"

Xie Ziqi smiled at the two guards on the left and right, and then sat on the sedan chair in silence amidst Hei Hong's gesture of "please get on the sedan chair".

Another quarter of an hour later, when Xie Ziqi was sitting in the sedan chair, he heard a commotion.

"That little man is so pretty."

"Look, the little gentleman with the white magnolia hairpin is really good-looking."

Groups of female companions gathered together, pointing to each other at the top ten man on the imperial examination list who was parading on horseback, without the slightest concealment.

"This group of nymphomaniacs don't know how powerful the young gentleman with the white magnolia hairpin is. He is the closed disciple of Mr. Su Ru of Jiangnan Suge Academy. This group of little ladies only know how to look at their faces, but they have no experience." "The other group of men were arrogant and commented wantonly on the little ladies around them.

Hei Hong suddenly said: "Young Master Ziqi, do you want to stop and take a look?"

At this time, Zhao Bingrui, who was blushing because of the bold words of the Jinghua women, just heard the voice from the oncoming sedan chair.

"No, keep going." Xie Ziqi replied flatly.

"Yes."

Zhao Bingrui felt that the voice was very familiar, and vaguely felt that it was very similar to the voice of the younger brother, so he couldn't help but look at the sedan chair.However, the crowd was surging, and the horses parading the street were so close together that Zhao Bingrui couldn't even turn his head.

The sedan chair and Zhao Bingrui's horse passed by, just in time, a gust of wind blew by, Zhao Bingrui, who had been keeping a good eye, saw the breeze blowing up a corner of the curtain of the sedan chair, revealing a corner of his clothes from inside.And at that corner, Zhao Bingrui keenly saw a small word Ziqi embroidered on it.

Zhao Bingrui didn't care about other things, turned around, and then galloped towards Xie Ziqi's sedan chair with a whip and a horse.

On both sides of the road, countless girls from Jinghua screamed again and again.However, Zhao Bingrui didn't find any sign of the sedan chair until he drove to the street.Could it be that he was daydreaming?Or maybe it's a mistake.

Zhao Bingrui had no choice but to return to the hairpin parade team.

Hei Hong, who was hiding in another narrow street, gave Wen Chou a glance.The sedan chair accelerated, and it took only half a quarter of an hour to arrive at the residence of the third prince.

Xie Ziqi was settled in Xie Garden, the garden was full of plum blossom trees, and the area was very spacious. However, Xie Ziqi was only arranged to live alone in the huge garden.

Hei Hong knew very well that he didn't arrange slaves for Xie Ziqi, but just ordered Wen Chou to protect Xie Ziqi, then cupped his hands and said to Xie Ziqi: "Young Master Ziqi, please rest well."

Xie Ziqi ignored him at all, just took the books on the shelf, sat on the wicker chair in the yard, and read them.It seemed that there were no two evil gods standing behind him, and it seemed that they had never left the Prime Minister's mansion.

In the middle of the night, the third prince had just returned to the mansion after finishing his political affairs, he hurriedly got off the sedan chair, and Hei Hong went up to greet him.

"Has anyone brought it back?"

Hei Hong hurriedly reported: "He took it back and placed it in Xie Yuan. No slaves were arranged to serve him. I asked Wen Chou to protect him."

"The arrangement is good." The third prince glanced at Hei Hong approvingly.

"Has he eaten yet? If not, ask the imperial chef in the mansion to make a meal for him, and I will eat some with him." The third prince walked straight to Xie Yuan.

"Master, I have something to report." Hei Hong suddenly knelt down.

"Say." The third prince put away the smile on his face, and looked at Hei Hong with dignity.

"I found this in the study of Mr. Ziqi." Hei Hong offered a plate of books.

The third prince took it, and the more he looked at his face, the more annoyed he became, and finally he turned and left in a hurry.Three days later, the third prince did not come to look for Xie Ziqi.

Xie Ziqi came to the third prince's mansion on the fourth day.

In the morning, when the fog was thin, Xie Ziqi was cutting plum blossoms in the garden.

The third prince's face was full of anger, he walked in a hurry, and his shoes were still damp.

"Zhao Bingrui cheated and went to jail."

Xie Ziqi didn't look back and continued to cut the plum blossom branches.

The third prince looked at Xie Ziqi's back, and couldn't see any expression on his face: "You sent him in with your own hands."

Xie Ziqi didn't answer.

The third prince rushed to Ziqi suddenly, and he threw a stack of letters in front of Xie Ziqi.

"What are you coming to Jinghua for?"

Xie Ziqi put the scissors aside, bent down to pick up the letter.

"You don't know everything already." Xie Ziqi said without any ups and downs.

"I don't know, I don't know what you are thinking and why?" The third prince's eyes turned red.Continue to question: "You used the imperial examination cheating case to drag the Xie family who gave birth to you and raised you into the water, and the century-old reputation of the Xie family in the south of the Yangtze River was destroyed; Zhao Bingrui is a senior brother who has been with you for six or seven years. Become a prisoner; you have been undercover in the prime minister's house for many days, and collected letters between Liu Wuji and the pirates. I can't understand all of this."

Xie Ziqi: "Isn't this what you would like to see?"

The third prince nodded, "I'm happy to see it succeed, but now I want to know the reason why you did this, and what kind of person are you?"

Xie Ziqi gave a rare smile, "I am who I am in your eyes."

The third prince was silent.

After a while, the third prince suddenly burst into laughter: "You are a lunatic! I want to pull the prince off the horse, so I am not a lunatic."

"A lunatic with a lunatic is a match made in heaven." The third prince muttered to himself, his voice so low that he could hardly hear him.

"Are you sure you're crazy?" Xie Ziqi said leisurely, but his eyes fell on the branches of the plum tree not far away.

The third prince was stunned suddenly.

"Ziqi, what do you mean by that?"

"In three days, it will be the emperor's birthday. Do you want to have something happen on the birthday?"

Xie Ziqi looked at the third prince and continued, "For example, the painting dedicated to the emperor is poisonous."
