29 Mutual Exploration

Nie Wenxing led Xue Jiahui to Hanmoxuan in a familiar way, and bought dozens of dollars of rice paper (one dollar is [-] sheets). Originally, the servants would deliver it to the carriage parked on the street, but the funds provided by the college were really tight, so they took it. The handling fee was exchanged for some more rice paper.

Nie Wenxing and Xue Jiahui held a stack of rice paper alone, bypassing the crowds of people and walking to the outer street.

"Mr. Nie, let me do the heavy work." Xue Jiahui went around in front of Nie Wenxing, intending to help him open the way, but she struggled to change positions to support the rice paper.

At this time, Xue Jiahui not only rested her chin on the rice paper, but saw that the road under her feet was difficult, and she didn't know why she was trying to be brave.

With a smile in his eyes, Nie Wenxing looked down at her quietly, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but smile.

"No need, just take yours." After speaking, he reached out and took some from her.

"How nice, sir!" Xue Jiahui covered her pile and refused to let him take it.

"Although I'm a husband, I'm also a man." Nie Wenxing's face suddenly became serious, seeing Xue Jiahui dazed again, he managed to take another part and put it on top of himself.

Nie Wenxing took the lead and left a loose space behind him. Xue Jiahui buried her head and followed behind him. She immediately felt a lot more relaxed, but she was wondering how her husband could carry such a heavy weight, and she felt faintly uneasy.

As Nie Wenxing walked away, he asked Xue Jiahui about the ink sticks, saying that he found them to be good and wanted to buy some more.

"Ah! That's the last batch in that store. Mr. Liu also asked me today, is the ink stick really that good?" Xue Jiahui wondered if she should ask someone to go to another town to ask.

"It's just special..." Nie Wenxing's heart tightened, and she finally heard her words after going out for so long.

Sure enough, Liu Aotian asked Xue Jiahui, so now he has no choice but to take the initiative to admit that he helped Liu Yaoyao, but Liu Ao is naturally suspicious, so I don't know if he will believe it, or he has already begun to doubt himself.

This move is very dangerous, and one hundred secrets will eventually be lost.

Although Fan Datong and Wu Tianbao were saved, one of their fathers was a servant of the household department, and the other was the richest man in Chang'an.

Liu Yaoyao is the daughter of Xuejian Liu. If the matter is exposed and damaged, it will be the entire Hongwen Academy. It is the best strategy to conceal her that day. Besides, no matter whether the cheater can be caught or not, the discussion on Hongwen Academy will not be small in the future. , the policy of women's enrollment has been pushed to the cusp, and it is difficult to convince the public.

Originally walking in peace, Xue Jiahui sneezed. After autumn, the temperature dropped sharply, and she forgot to add clothes in time.

Hearing the sound, Nie Wenxing asked, "Did you wear less?"

"Yeah." Xue Jiahui sniffed, who knew that the temperature after autumn would be hot and cold every day, and she didn't expect that she would still be wearing light clothes when she went out today.

Today, she wore a lapel robe, Persian trousers and small boots. The bright colors of the new Hu suit attracted the attention of passers-by. The bad thing was that it didn't keep warm at all. Xue Jiahui couldn't help shivering when a gust of autumn wind passed by.

After noon, the sun still didn't come out listlessly, and the sky looked very gloomy. In addition, they missed the lunch time because of shopping, and Xue Jiahui felt cold even more because she was hungry all the way.

When they finally squeezed out of the workshop, the driver didn't know where he went, and asked the boy next to him that he had abandoned the customer and went to take a lunch break by himself, saying that he would go back after he had a full rest after drinking and eating.

"How can there be such a reason!" Xue Jiahui was furious when she heard this.

On the contrary, the little brother squinted at them imposingly, snorted coldly and said, "Have you paid half the price for the same thing, are you still reasonable? I think Lao Wang is stupid to take this job!" "

"You!" Xue Jiahui frowned and pouted her mouth upwards, but she was still a little guilty. Liu Xuejian, a miser, didn't know how much salary was deducted, so let's forget it after thinking about it.

Nie Wenxing suggested: "Then let's put our things in the car. I know there's a restaurant nearby. Let's go eat something and rest for a while before going back."

"Okay!" Xue Jiahui's eyes lit up when she heard "eat".

The restaurant was in an alley on the back of the street, and there were a lot fewer people in front of the door after lunch time. Xiao Er welcomed them both in with a smile on his face and sat down in a random corner in the lobby.

"Hehe, Master Murong invited a famous family in Chang'an City to set up a banquet. He really thinks his daughter is so precious!"

If you haven't seen him, hear his voice first.

The man sneered a few more times afterwards, who had the audacity to talk about the Murong family in such a way in public, if you think about it, it must be some high-ranking official in Chang'an who doesn't know how to measure himself.

"Who is talking so annoying!" Xue Jiahui looked back, and Nie Wenxing also looked in the direction of the voice, and sure enough...

As soon as they sat down, Xiao Yuan led a few young masters out of the private room. Xue Jiahui turned her head to meet Xiao Yuan's gaze, and it was too late for her to avoid it.

Seeing Nie Wenxing and Xue Jiahui, Xiao Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Yo! Mr. Nie..."

There was a different meaning in his eyes, and he looked at them jokingly with a smile, before he bowed and said, "...you're being polite."

Nie Wenxing was naturally aware of it but didn't want to confront Xiao Yuan head-on, so he nodded slightly in response. He suppressed his anger and straightened the fan bone in his hand over and over again.

There was no respect in Xiao Yuan's tone, on the contrary, he seemed to be watching their jokes. It was a normal thing for students and teachers to go out for dinner, but he just said it with a sense of sex. The man whispered a few words.

"Hehe, Mr. Xiao is being polite too! One thing in front of my second brother, another thing behind his back, it's really hidden." But Xue Jiahui couldn't bear this tone, and stared back fiercely without showing any weakness he.

Seeing that Xue Jiahui was angry, Xiao Yuan smiled even brighter: "Yo, you also said that it was just what the adults meant, didn't you? Miss Xue. I'm just afraid that someone in Youzhou would shout that, and after so long in Chang'an you are still used to it." ?”

Xue Jiahui patted the table angrily, stood up and said, "Xiao Yuan, don't go too far!"

Nie Wenxing secretly tugged on the corner of Xue Jiahui's clothes, still with a smile on his face, he unfolded the folding fan and stroked his chest, and said in a relaxed tone: "If I remember correctly, today should be the day of travel practice, why are you in this restaurant?" Where? Do you need me to speak to the superintendent and hold a separate trip for you?"

"You're cruel!" Xiao Yuan snorted coldly, turned his head and waved his hands, beckoning the others to leave.

From the conversation between Xue Jiahui and Xiao Yuan just now, combined with the scene where she met Nie Wenxing in front of the restaurant some time ago, it is not difficult to guess that the Xiao family and the Xue family have the intention of marrying.

After Xiao Yuan left, Xue Jiahui sat down without changing expression or heartbeat, but Nie Wenxing was so laughing that he couldn't even speak, and at the end he suddenly said: "It's really the right time for you to come to Chang'an .”

Just after moving the rice paper back to the academy, Xue Jiahui stepped out of the teaching office, and Liu Aotian stepped in behind. "Mr. Nie has something to ask you..."

"Mr. Liu, please tell me." Nie Wenxing calmly waved his folding fan, smiled at him, and really came on his own initiative.

"Mr. Nie has always been good at calligraphy. When you copy the Preface to the Lanting Collection, you can get [-]% of the same. I'm not talented. I can't grasp the essence after several months of learning, but your writing is like flowing water. It's hard to tell the truth from the fake..."

Nie Wenxing said with a smile: "Mr. Liu is over the award, the secret of this is hard work."

"I'm still wondering if the ink used by Mr. Nie is very special?" As he spoke, Liu Aotian picked up the ink sticks on the case and played with them.

He not only praised Nie Wenxing's superb calligraphy, but also brought the topic to the ink sticks used.

Nie Wenxing replied with a smile: "Oh, I have to ask Xue Jiahui for these inks, she gave them to me."

Suddenly there was a noise outside the door, and Nie Wenxing turned his gaze. Xue Jiahui left the handbag on the desk before leaving. She must have turned back, and he deliberately raised his voice and said: "Mr. It's a side question about cheating in the exam."

Liu Aotian smiled lightly, nodded and said: "Exactly."

Nie Wenxing nodded thoughtfully, thought for a moment, and said with embarrassment: "I did copy Liu Yaoyao's test paper, and I did this to conceal the truth. It’s a secret, how about declaring that cheating in the exam was a misunderstanding?”

"Your Majesty has such intentions." Liu Aotian smiled dimly, Nie Wenxing took the initiative to admit that it was unexpected, and the previous speculation that he was a member of the old dynasty's influence became untenable.

Xue Jiahui outside the door overheard the latter part of the conversation, before Liu Aotian's footsteps approached, she ran away.

Before leaving, Liu Aotian tried again, he picked up the ink, deliberately dropped it when handing it over to Nie Wenxing.

When the ink stick was about to fall to the ground, Nie Wenxing's eyes moved first, and his hands behind his back did not move. He had expected to be tempted, but fortunately he was always on guard so as not to show his feet. From this, it can be seen that Liu Aotian has deep doubts about him.

Liu Aotian picked up the ink stick with a warm smile, but there was some coldness in the eyes that met Nie Wenxing.

Here, Xue Jiahui returned to her room, thinking hard about the current situation in the academy.

Someone had already done this before she reminded Murong Yue. From Xiao Yuan, I learned that Murong's family will hold a banquet tonight, and the person who reminded her should be Mr. Liu.If the second brother thinks that Liu Aotian is a member of Master Dongfang is correct, then there must be another party in the academy who was sent by the forces of the old dynasty, and this cheating incident may be publicized by them.

Nie Wenxing and Liu Aotian are obviously testing each other, which means that they are not on the same side, but if Nie Wenxing is really from the faction of the old dynasty, then why did he help Liu Yaoyao hide it? policy?

Xue Jiahui couldn't figure it out, but one thing is for sure, Nie Wenxing is not as simple as it seems on the surface. Curiosity drives her to know more about him.

**

The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the night wind was gentle. If a woman in night clothes suddenly jumped out of the darkness, it might be shocking. When the man saw it, he did not move at all, only waiting for the woman in black to come to him.

"My lord, a few days ago when the Xiao family came to report, the Murong family was instructed by someone to hold a Hongmen banquet, threatening the marriage, which silenced the ministers who originally opposed it in the court. My lord is very disgusted with this double-faced approach of the Murong family. dissatisfied."

Nie Wenxing's heart sank, and he raised his hand: "I already know about this matter. It is possible that someone secretly instructed Murong Yue, and Mr. Murong loves his daughter so much, so it must not have come from his original intention."

He is well versed in the way "adults" handle things. This time, the centrist of the Murong family broke a major event, and he will definitely pay the price for losing his stance against the enemy.

Mo Tong bowed his body and cupped his fists and said, "Mo Tong will definitely convey it."

Nie Wenxing clasped his hands behind his back, sighed softly, looked into the vast night and asked, "What else do you want me to tell you, my lord?"

"My lord also told the young master not to make mistakes, otherwise he will do it himself."

Nie Wenxing nodded, but frowned even tighter.

Murong Yue took the initiative to enroll in school, and when she was forced to leave the school when she encountered opposition, the Murong family would naturally turn to support the female enrollment policy. From this point of view, the next one would be the Xue family in Youzhou.

The author has something to say: It is written here that the Xiao family is actually from the side of the "adult", so it can be imagined that the marriage with the Xue family was also planned by the "adult".This part has slightly changed the settings in the play, and Liu Aotian will test Mr. Nie later.

Yu: Is it really good that Miss Xue is so irritable?

Hui: She is gentle and kind [Instant Jiao Didi_(:з」∠)_

Nie: Borrowing the previous line "Brother Hui is so fierce, but I like it" ╮(╯▽╰)╭
