Rebirth of the Phoenix

Back in the convoy, even Xuan Bin, who had been drinking, could tell that the relationship between Zhang Xiu and Feng Yuner was completely wrong. Taking advantage of Feng Yuner's inattention, he poked Zhang Xiu, "It's done!" ?”

Zhang Xiu glanced at him sideways, and nodded silently, "You should drink less." Ever since He Miaomiao went to the nunnery, Xuan Bin has been addicted to alcohol, except for the day when he went to see He Miaomiao , At other times, he never leaves the flagon.

Xuan Bin patted Zhang Xiu's shoulder lightly, "Brother, I wish you happiness." But he didn't respond to Zhang Xiu's words, maybe in his opinion, he didn't care about anything after losing He Miaomiao.

Because there is a carriage, Feng Yun'er did not ride a horse after the rendezvous, but sat in the carriage with Wen Pingting, the carriage was prepared by the old lady, everything inside was complete, Feng Yun'er had nothing to do , then looked at Wen Pingting.

Wen Pingting is the kind of girl who knows the book and reason at first glance. She has a melon-seeded face, red phoenix eyes, cherry lips, and skin as white as jade. However, the family that can cultivate the old lady should not be underestimated.

"Why is Sister Feng looking at me like that?" Wen Pingting stopped turning over the book and asked with a smile.

Feng Yun'er shook her head, but did not answer the question, "Sister Wen, what are you looking at?"

"Looking at Travels in the Western Regions." Wen Pingting stood up the book and showed Feng Yun'er the cover, "My cousin lent it to me."

Hearing this, Feng Yun'er looked carefully and saw that Wen Pingting had no intention of showing off at all, so she pressed her mind and asked tentatively, "Sister Wen seems to love reading?" She heard Zhang Xiu say that Wen Pingting Ting often goes to the study to read books.

"Yes, if I have books to read, I can sit for a whole day." Wen Pingting raised a big smile, full of satisfaction, "My cousin is really a good person, unlike my father, my father's study room I have never been able to go in, I remember entering my father's study when I was young, and my father found out and beat me to death."

This was the first time the two of them chatted for so long, and Feng Yun'er felt that she was about to refresh her sense of Wen Pingting.

In the evening, they stopped at an inn for the night. During the meal, Xuan Bin ordered a jug of wine as usual, and Zhang Xiu ordered four dishes. Wen Pingting naturally started serving dishes. Zhang Xiu took a look, This is not right, so I quickly stopped Wen Pingting's hand, "Cousin, you are such a kind person, you know that Xuan Bin can't see the dishes after drinking, so I gave him the dishes." The dish was placed in front of Xuan Bin.

Xuan Bin took a big sip of wine just now, when he lowered his head, he saw a bowl full of food, "Uh...thank you." He suddenly felt a little hot, um, it must be because he drank too much wine.

"Brother Xiu said that he doesn't love other people's dishes." Feng Yun'er showed an innocent smile because of her young age, and reiterated this fact, while her other hand was twisting Zhang Xiu's thigh under the table.

Wen Pingting looked around, opened her mouth, and finally said, "But I caught food for myself..." Her voice was small but clear.

For a while, the other three smiled awkwardly, "Then I'll give it back to you?" Xuan Bin pushed the vegetable bowl.

"No need." Wen Pingting looked at the wine-stained bowl with a disgusted expression, then took a new bowl from the next table and ate it.

Feng Yun'er withdrew Zhang Xiu's hand in embarrassment, Zhang Xiu silently glanced at her and started eating too.

They asked for four rooms in total, and they could actually have two, but Feng Yuner didn't want Zhang Xiu to share a room with Xuan Bin, but she couldn't share a room with Zhang Xiu, and she didn't want to share a room with Wen Pingting It’s just that Feng Yun’er has insomnia, she can’t understand Wen Pingting’s thoughts, Wen Pingting doesn’t look like she likes Zhang Xiu, if she likes someone, shouldn’t she be Do you even see love in your eyes?But Wen Pingting was not at all, Feng Yun'er thought she could talk to Wen Pingting.

It's just that Wen Pingting was reading all along the way, Feng Yun'er couldn't find the right time to say it, and within a few days, they returned to the academy.

Wen Pingting naturally became a student in the female class. According to Wen Pingting's family background, she would not be able to enter the female class, but because of the old lady's relationship, Wen Pingting was admitted in an exception. On the other hand, it's just that the Wen family has gradually disappeared over the years. Even if the old lady is there, they can't restore the old situation. Wen Pingting actually feels a little bit resentful towards the old lady in her heart, but Wen Pingting is able to live with the good education of the Wen family. Keep your balance in front of everyone.

After returning to the academy and starting class, Zhang Xiucai discovered that there were two special transfer students this year, one named Yan Guan and the other named Zheng Yuan. The students all said that they looked alike, and asked if they were two brothers. , but was rejected, but when Zhang Xiu saw these two people, he was speechless. They were clearly the second prince and the third prince!Why did they come to Nishan Academy all of a sudden? What exactly do they want to do?

"They're really here?" During lunch, Feng Yun'er also had a look of disbelief. How could the good-looking prince of Beijing come to the academy? What are they going to do?

"I also find it very strange. Although Nishan Academy has a good name, it is completely unnecessary to come here for gilding." Zhang Xiu scratched her head and frowned.

"Maybe the emperor did it on purpose, let's see who can hide his identity." Xuan Bin said lazily, with a mocking smile on his lips.

Feng Yun'er moved away from Xuan Bin in displeasure, "Can't you drink less? You smell so bad of alcohol." After complaining, Feng Yun'er recalled what Xuan Bin had just said, and was surprised to find that there was something in Xuan Bin's tone. There is no sense of respect for the emperor.

"She doesn't think so." Xuan Bin really sat a little farther away, but he pointed to Wen Pingting who was sitting side by side.

Wen Pingting was holding a book in one hand and cooking rice in the other. She raised her head and looked at the crowd after being told, "Are you talking about me?"

"No, you should read!" Feng Yun'er was very helpless. Such a girl said that she wanted to rob Zhang Xiu from her. Yes, it was very hot in Beijing, but coming to the academy was like a different person. Yun'er can't understand her at all, but she just needs to know that Wen Pingting will not rob Zhang Xiu again.

"Cousin, the academy is really good. There are so many books. I think I can read books for a lifetime here." Wen Pingting's eyes sparkled, she was curious like a little country girl entering the Grand View Garden, Fresh.

"...As long as you like it." Zhang Xiu smiled stiffly.

Xuan Bin snorted at Wen Pingting's words, "Is this called too much? How can there be so many in my family?"

"Does your family really have more books than the academy?" Wen Pingting looked at Xuan Bin seriously.

"Tch, you little girl, do you know Weicheng Xuanjia?" Xuan Bin looked at her with disdain, and shook the jug in his hand.

"Hmm... I haven't heard of it." Wen Pingting pondered for a while, then said decisively.

One sentence choked Xuan Bin on the spot, "Cut, I don't like to talk to country girls." Xuan Bin said, and took another big sip of wine. He didn't notice that Wen Pingting looked at him completely differently.

Zhang Xiu and Feng Yun'er noticed it, but Zhang Xiu was eager to give her troublesome cousin to others, and Feng Yun'er was going to have a talk with Wen Pingting to find out what Wen Pingting was thinking, otherwise, there would be a rival in love eyeing her She always feels uneasy.

In the evening, Feng Yun'er walked into Wen Pingting's room generously. Not surprisingly, Wen Pingting was reading again, "...Sister Wen, why are you reading again?" Feng Yun'er smiled awkwardly So, in front of such a studious person, Feng Yun'er felt a little guilty.

"If you don't read a book now, it's just as good as a flower." Wen Pingting turned a page of the book, glanced at it, and then put the book down, "My sister is a rare visitor, why are you here when you have time?" She asked Her eyes were shining brightly, as if she could see through what Feng Yun'er was thinking.

Feng Yun'er smiled slightly, "My sister also knows who I am, I like to be sure about everything, so I thought of asking my sister something, do you like Brother Xiu?" Smile, when I asked, I was still a little nervous.

Wen Pingting deliberately didn't speak, as if she had admired Feng Yun'er's nervous and anxious expression enough, she said with a "puchi" smile, "I've never liked my cousin before."

"Then why did the old lady say..." At this point, Feng Yun'er also got stuck. Yes, the old lady never said that Wen Pingting would definitely marry Zhang Xiu. She was just building a bridge for the two of them. Thinking about it this way , Feng Yun'er was a little depressed, what was it that she was jealous and crying during this time?

"The way of marriage is nothing more than the words of the matchmaker. My parents asked me to go to Beijing to accompany my aunt, so I went. The old lady wanted to match me with my cousin. I have no objection. My cousin is the first family I know." He is the tallest person, and he is a person who knows everything, I have no objection." Wen Pingting said calmly.

Feng Yun'er didn't like to hear these things, "But what do you think? Even if you don't like a person, as long as your parents let you marry that person, you are willing to do so?" She seemed to see that person in her previous life in Wen Pingting. Her own self, the so-called parents' fate and matchmaking words, have already ruined her life. She guarded that man for half her life, but she couldn't get him to look back. tragedy.

"Isn't it always like this from ancient times to the present?" Wen Pingting's eyes were very calm, without any waves.

"It shouldn't be like this. Even if it is the words of our parents, we should choose the person we like. Only if we really like it can we live a lifetime, shouldn't we?" Feng Yun'er wanted to change her mind very much.

"Sister, you read too many books." Wen Pingting shook her head with a smile, "Love is the most illusory thing. If my parents and aunts asked me to marry my cousin at this moment, I would marry my cousin, but ..." Wen Pingting hesitated for a moment, looked at Feng Yun'er's excited eyes, gently reached out and stroked Feng Yun'er's face, "Sometimes, I envy you too." She looked away "Forget it, cousin, I give up. In the academy, there will always be someone who is better than cousin." She smiled lightly, her confident eyes seemed to indicate that she already had a new candidate.

After some conversation, Feng Yun'er couldn't understand Wen Pingting even more. She became puzzled, and her footsteps were still a little fluttering when she walked.

Wen Pingting looked at Feng Yun'er's back and smiled secretly, hugged the quilt and fell asleep, having a good night's dream.

The next day, Xuan Bin woke up early. When he was passing by the library, he saw a person leaning against the door of the library. He raised his head and looked up at the sky, "Are you waiting for Zhang Xiu? He hasn't woken up yet."

Hearing this, Wen Pingting closed the book with a smile, raised her head with a smile, and asked, "Does your family lack a mistress?"

"Huh?" Xuan Bin looked puzzled, he didn't take a sip of wine, so he believed that he was not hallucinating, "What did you just say? I didn't hear clearly."

"I said...do you lack a wife?" Wen Pingting repeated, her attitude didn't change at all.

"..." Xuan Bin said that he still didn't hear clearly, "I'm really dreaming." As he spoke, he walked straight forward, and then... bumped into the pillar magnificently, "It hurts, hurts, hurts! What you just said, say it again!"

"I said, do you want to marry me?" Wen Pingting approached and asked seriously.

"...Do you have any questions?" Xuan Bin expressed that he was seriously frightened, and he couldn't do it anymore. He was going to find Zhang Xiu and tell Zhang Xiu that his cousin's skull was broken.

"Anyway, you've lost your love, haven't you? And you'll need a wife sooner or later, otherwise you'll be forced to marry a wife and have children. Marrying me, you're not at a loss, and I don't need you to perfunctory, as long as you have enough books for me to read That's fine, you can do whatever else you like, you can do whatever you want." Wen Pingting has already found out Xuan Bin's background, although the doctor's position is not high, but he can directly talk to the emperor, and Xuan Bin is from the capital, in the future Work matters are also easy to solve, the business is not bad, and there is no need to compete with Feng Yun'er for her cousin, who doesn't have as many books as the academy, and Wen Pingting thinks that Zhang Xiu can understand her when people go to high places.

This nonsense made Xuan Bin nod repeatedly, but...it doesn't mean that he wants a fiancée right now, even in name, he is not willing at all! "I think this is too hasty, really, really too hasty, we can't do this, really can't!" Xuan Bin spoke incoherently, turned around and ran away.

"...Hey, why are you doing this! You gave me a letter!" Wen Pingting thought for a while and chased after her.

Zhang Xiu, who watched a play early in the morning, said that the pressure of having a cousin with a broken head is actually quite high, but... a dead friend is not a poor fellow, "Xuan Bin, you are really a good buddy." I am in a good mood Zhang Xiu turned around and went to find Feng Yun'er, "Honey, I'm in a good mood today, let's get some skewers!"
