After having breakfast with Cheng Dan, Zhang Yuliang studied ink well, and sat behind the desk, reading and annotating on the book, without raising his head for a long time, as if he had entered a state of complete ecstasy.

But in fact, while he was studying, he did not forget to pay close attention to Cheng Dan's situation. Occasionally, when Cheng Dan was about to run out of his sight, he would call people back, and he would not let him leave him for a moment.

When Zhang Yuliang was studying, Cheng Dan looked for something to do by himself.It happened that there were a lot of wild mushrooms growing under the tree where they were, and they were so crispy and fresh, so he took off his cloak, picked some and wrapped them up, intending to take them home to make soup for drinking.

He still can't forget the taste of the mushroom soup last night.

The gloomy sky gradually became clearer and taller with the passage of time, and the sunlight slanted from the clouds became brighter and brighter, dispelling the damp and cold clouds near Linyuan Terrace in a short while.

The melodious bird songs echoed one after another on different trees, perhaps because they are used to the people coming and going here. These birds are not afraid of people, and some bold ones will jump on the table or beside the brazier to keep warm.

What's more, they flew directly onto Cheng Dan's arms, chirping and begging for food, Cheng Dan teased them a bit, and had a great time playing with them.

After the sky brightened, more people came to Yuantai to study, almost all of them were young masters and brothers who were surrounded by servants and servants.Some of them really looked like they were going to study, while others were just pretending, which made the originally quiet Linyuan Terrace quite noisy.

Among a group of rich men, the few scholars who were dressed in relatively simple clothes and had no servants around them were particularly conspicuous.Especially the blue-clothed youth sitting closest to Zhang Yuliang. His clothes are shabby, and he uses the worst paper and pens, but he is elegant, and his whole body is more noble than the nobles who wear gold and jade around him. Being a little more prosperous made him stand out from the crowd.

When there were too many people, Cheng Dan couldn't run around anymore. After letting go of the bird in his hand, he trotted back to Zhang Yuliang and sat down next to him, but his eyes were still gazing around curiously.

Zhang Yuliang rubbed his hair, moved to the side, made half of the seat, and then pulled him over to sit down.

"Are you bored? Do you want to go back and rest?"

"No, I have nothing else to do when I go back." Cheng Dan hugged Zhang Yuliang's arm and rested it on his shoulder, "I'll sleep here for a while."

The corners of Zhang Yuliang's lips curved slightly, and she untied her cloak to wrap him up and embrace him in her arms.

Such an intimate act fell into the eyes of others and attracted a lot of narrow eyes, but he ignored it and continued reading with Cheng Dan in his arms.

Seeing this, the blue-clothed youth who was spreading the paper smiled and said, "It turns out that the Zhang family, who are the most disciplined, also have such informality."

The words "informal" came out of his mouth, full of irony.

Cheng Dan, who was about to fall asleep, was awakened by his voice, couldn't help arching in Zhang Yuliang's arms, buried his head in his shoulder, and muttered: "It's so noisy..."

Zhang Yuliang pulled back the cloak a little to keep him from getting bored, and then said to the blue-clothed youth without turning his head: "Where love comes, it will come naturally, and people who use women's feelings to do sinister things will naturally not understand."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for the young man in blue to fight back, he covered Cheng Dan's ears again, and raised his voice slightly: "This is a place for studying. If you don't want to study, you might as well leave and give up the place to others."

He said this not only to the young man in blue, but also as a reminder to the pretending and noisy young masters around him.

There are many high-ranking children in Linchu, but in terms of status, Zhang Yuliang is only below the children of the Tian family, a bit higher than the children of ordinary families, so no one present dares to talk too much, and they all calm down honestly .

The young man in blue frowned slightly, but didn't speak any more.

Zhang Yuliang's status and reputation are too high, he can't openly challenge him, even if he wants to try, he has to use a relatively subtle and gentle way, at least not in this situation, otherwise he might end up trying to Opportunities to fight for.

Thinking of this, the young man turned his head and continued to spread the paper, focusing on practicing calligraphy.

The atmosphere on Linyuan Terrace returned to its original quiet and peaceful state.

Zhang Yuliang nodded in satisfaction, kissed Cheng Dan's side face, then picked up the bamboo slip with one hand, and looked down at the place he saw last time.

Seeing that it was approaching noon, Zhang Yuliang looked up at the sky, put down the scroll and pen, picked up Cheng Dan who was sleeping soundly, and went back to Tingyu Pavilion to prepare for lunch.

His family is lethargic and greedy. No matter how soundly he sleeps, he will spontaneously wake up to find what he wants to eat when it is time to eat. As time goes by, he who has always forgotten the time to eat has also gotten used to preparing meals at that time and not eating by himself. Also prepared for Cheng Dan.

Seeing this, the young man in blue who was paying attention to Zhang Yuliang consciously or unconsciously got up lightly and followed him.The two walked one after the other, one pretended not to know that there was someone behind them, the other deliberately followed in confusion, and walked all the way into the gate of Tingyu Pavilion.

Putting Cheng Dan on the bed, pulling the quilt to wrap him up, Zhang Yuliang smiled and brushed away the broken hair sticking to his cheeks, his eyes were full of doting and love.

Suddenly, the voice of the blue-clothed youth came from behind: "Master Zhang, do you know that you are so in love with a little book boy?"

Zhang Yuliang suppressed her smile, and the moment she turned around, her expression became indifferent and distant: "Go out and talk."

The young man shrugged his shoulders, the slightly rough movements he made were indescribably chic.

The two walked down the corridor and stood side by side with a distance of three meters. The cold wind was blowing in front of them, which disturbed whose heartstrings.

"Mr. Zhang made no secret of his love for that little book boy. He is not afraid of being criticized, and he is not afraid that his father will remove him in the name of insulting the family?" The blue-clothed youth, Lin Chen, Yingqing's former lover, asked with a half-smile road.

"My father is not so narrow-minded about trivial matters. And what Yuliang wants is to let others know that I belong to you." Zhang Yuliang replied calmly, "Love is love, there is nothing to hide. If it's early, I can avoid those who want to talk to the Zhang family earlier, and I will have less trouble."

Lin Chen squinted his long and narrow eyes, looked at Zhang Yuliang seriously, and said with a sneer, "Young master Zhang is a kind of love, and the so-called Zhang family's talent is also trapped by love, but that's all."

"Trapped by love?" Zhang Yuliang raised his eyebrows, and said meaningfully: "Love never traps people, only people make themselves cocooned. Mr. Lin claims to be extremely smart, isn't he also defeated by this point?"

Lin Chen's face darkened slightly, but he smiled again in a blink of an eye.

"Mr. Zhang's words are thorny, and what he said openly and secretly is just an old story. He tried every means to test Lin, in order to complain for his sister, or..." Lin Chen paused, seeing that Zhang Yuliang was still calm , then continued with a little reluctance: "Let's try to find out why Lin appeared in Linchu residence where the children of the aristocratic family gather?"

Zhang Yuliang admitted straightforwardly: "There are both. Regarding the latter, would Mr. Lin tell me?"

Lin Chen looked at him deeply for a long time, trying to find something from his indifferent expression, but unfortunately found nothing, so he had to regretfully say what he had been preparing for a long time: "Mr. Zhang can exchange a question for the answer to this question."

Zhang Yuliang's eyelashes trembled slightly, faintly realizing that he came to find him today not simply to test him out.

"Okay." With a sudden change in his mind, he nodded and agreed to Lin Chen's conditions.

Lin Chen smiled slightly: "Everyone knows that Mr. Zhang has a talent of three yuan and rank, so what rank does Mr. Zhang think he can get in the spring test next year?"

From the moment he heard the word "Spring Examination", Zhang Yuliang knew that Lin Chen had set a trick for himself, an extremely insidious, vicious, sinister trick that corresponded to the test questions given by Li Cheng.

There may be fraud in Chunwei next year. Zhang Yuliang has discussed this matter with his father Zhang Fang and is ready to deal with it, but Lin Chen is not clear about it.

He only knew that Zhang Yuliang accepted the test questions sent by Li Cheng, and he also knew that once the cheating incident broke out next year, Zhang Yuliang would definitely fall into the quagmire of cheating in the scientific examination because of Li Cheng's remarks, so he deliberately asked him about his ranking at this time .

If Zhang Yuliang arrogantly answered "No. [-]", then after the spring test, this answer would become a piece of subjective evidence to prove that he cheated.If he pretends to be humble or does not answer, he will also give the impression of hypocrisy.

In short, whether he did it or not was wrong, that's why he said that Lin Chen was setting him up.

"The ranking is decided by the Holy Majesty and the adults. All I can do for the candidates is to do my best to answer the test papers." Zhang Yuliang tried his best to avoid two routine answers that were full of pitfalls, "Mr. Lin also participated in the scientific test. Man, why ask such a question."

Zhang Yuliang's answer was expected by Lin Chen, he didn't think that Zhang Yuliang, who is as smart as Zhang Yuliang, would be easily entangled by him.If that's the case, the Zhang family's reputation as Tianjiao will become a big joke.

Besides, this was just a trial, Zhang Yuliang's words were decent, and he didn't react strangely to the matter of the spring test, which meant that what he planned with Li Cheng hadn't been exposed yet.Knowing this, he didn't make a trip in vain today.

Lin Chen had a good plan, but he didn't know that Zhang Yuliang was also testing whether he knew that their plan had been leaked.

For Lin Chen, his probing got a fake answer, but Zhang Yuliang's got a real result.

The matter of fraud is very involved, and there must be someone with high status behind it.There was Li Cheng of the Imperial Academy in the front, and Lin Chen, the former aide of the prince in the back. Those who can use people who are not available to ordinary people, the ambitions of the people behind the scenes are probably greater than what he reveals.

The new emperor has just been enthroned for one year, and the time to hide his strength and bide his time has passed, and it is time to show his sharpness. It is extremely stupid for someone to jump out to practice swords for him now!

Zhang Yuliang sneered in his heart, but his face remained calm: "It's Mr. Lin's turn to answer Yuliang's question."

"Thanks to the little prince's help, Lin was able to enter Linchu Residence and concentrate on his studies." Lin Chen pretended to finish without thinking, and bowed his hands to say goodbye, "Lin still has three copybooks to be copied, so I leave."

After saying that, he turned around and left, as if he didn't want to stay any longer.

Zhang Yuliang looked at his back with a complicated expression: "My mother asked me to ask my husband, if he is in high school, would he come to propose marriage to his sixth sister?"

Now that Lin Chen has returned to the imperial capital, he will naturally no longer use his former identity, and the honors he has obtained will also be forfeited, and he must take the imperial examination again.

"The past is like smoke, but now it has vanished." Lin Chen kept walking, and said in a cold tone, "Please make all my sisters forget about it."

For Yingqing, he used it from the beginning to the end, and he didn't give any real affection, so how could he feel guilty and uneasy?

Before he finished speaking, his figure had disappeared into the winding path.

Zhang Yuliang's eyes were slightly cold, and he couldn't help feeling cold for Ying.

There is nothing more entrusted than this.

Standing facing the cold winter wind, Zhang Yuliang was thinking about how to teach Lin Chen some lessons, completely forgetting his purpose of listening to Yuge.

It wasn't until Cheng Dan, who was awake from starvation, walked out of the room rubbing his eyes, and called him in a daze, did he wake him up.

"Zhang Yuliang..." Cheng Dan looked at him aggrievedly, "I'm hungry."

Zhang Yuliang suddenly turned around, realizing that he had forgotten the most important thing, and seeing Cheng Dan frowning with hunger clutching his stomach, walked over to hug him distressedly.

"I'll have my lunch delivered right away!"

Cheng Dan stepped on his instep and hugged back: "Yes."
