Chapter 56

Duan Xiya immediately ran out excitedly, "Are you sure it was given to me by Prince Pingyang?"

She knew that Xu Fengnian was not the kind of person who didn't understand style!
After arriving at the door, Duan Xiya opened the box happily, but after seeing the things inside, her expression changed immediately!
"what--"

Duan Xiya took a step back excitedly, what does this mean?
"Are you sure it was sent by Prince Pingyang?" Duan Xiya looked angry.

The servant holding the box nodded, "Yes, it was sent by Xu Qing, Shizi's entourage, with a sentence attached, saying, saying yes..."

"say what?!"

"Say that if you are hurting his fiancée, you will end up like this long snake!"

"Damn!"

Duan Xiya slapped the box on the ground angrily, she turned around and walked towards the palace gloomily, it must be because she favored her too much, so Xu Fengnian forgot what kind of person she is.

Since she can't get it, then let's not get it together!

Lingwan didn't know how Xu Fengnian dealt with the dead bird in the end, but when she returned to the Imperial College for class, she could always feel Duan Xiya's sinister eyes.

And Duan Xiya never pestered Xu Fengnian again, as if the person who was obsessed with Xu Fengnian was not her.

Two days later, when school was about to end, Duan Xiya suddenly invited everyone to the palace to celebrate their brother and sister temporarily settling in the capital.

Ling Wan glanced indifferently, and didn't take this matter to heart. Duan Xiya probably wouldn't invite her, and even if she would... I'm afraid it would be a grand banquet.

Just when Ling Wan was about to leave, Duan Xiya walked up to her with a smile on her face, "Miss Leng, you will definitely come to the banquet the day after tomorrow, right?"

"As long as the princess invites me, of course I will go."

"Yeah, that's good, you and your fiancé must come."

"Ok."

Ling Wan is not very fond of the word fiance, but she doesn't want to explain too much.

Jiang Yue'e sneered, "Why, Duan Xiya, you resigned to your fate so quickly? But it's true, brother Fengnian is the best man in our Da'an Dynasty, so it is impossible for him to fall in love with you."

Duan Xiya glanced at her, Jiang Yuee was just as poor as she was, but unfortunately Jiang Yuee didn't know the reason for this.

In this way, she is much luckier than Jiang Yue'e.

Originally thought that Duan Xiya would refute her words, but Jiang Yue'e didn't expect that she would ignore her at all. Although she was very upset, she still turned around and left alone.

Ling Wan glanced at them and left. There were only a few months left before the state exam. Only those who passed the state exam were eligible to take the provincial exam. After the provincial exam, the palace exam was the last!

It will take at least a year and a half to complete this test, so she must cherish the time.

With the blessing of the system, Ling Wan believes that she will be able to do it.

So in order to be able to read more books, Ling Wan borrowed Ling Qingquan's signboard and planned to go to Zangshuge to check it out.

"You can tell me what book you want to read, and I'll have someone deliver it to your house." Xu Fengnian looked at her looking for a book seriously, and said distressedly.

Ling Wan was taken aback, "Why is the prince here?"

"look at you."

"Oh!"

Lingwan ignored him, and when she was about to step on to get the book, she suddenly felt that Xu Fengnian was standing behind her, helping her with the book!
She could feel his gentle chest even through his clothes!

"Do you want to take this?" Xu Fengnian looked down at her, only to find that she kept lowering her head, which made people wonder what she was thinking.

Ling Wan glanced at it and nodded, "Well, that's it, thank you, my lord."

"You're welcome, if you have something you don't understand, you can come to me, your elder brother is busy." Xu Fengnian knew that she was going to take an exam, so he was willing to do his best to help her.

Ling Wan pushed him away and looked at him solemnly, "Can I discuss something with you?"

"Huh?" Xu Fengnian was puzzled.

Lingwan thought for a while, and said seriously, "Is that so, can you wait until I finish the exam before getting married?"

"You don't want to divorce me?!" Xu Fengnian was very pleasantly surprised.

If so...

Looking at his man-eating gaze, Ling Wan subconsciously took a step back. It wasn't that she didn't want to divorce, but that she simply couldn't afford to divorce now!
So she thought that if she couldn't do it, she would wait until she was admitted as the No. [-] scholar. Although she was a female official, she was still an official after all, so she should have the right to take charge of her own marriage, right?
"Host, if you let the hero know about your thoughts, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave the library alive today!" The system poked her silently.

Ling Wan rolled her eyes gracefully, "What do you know? I call it a delaying tactic!"

Seeing her staring at him silently, Xu Fengnian couldn't help laughing, "Okay, I know you want to become a female officer, and I will help you."

"Thank you." Ling Wan breathed a sigh of relief.

If he had continued to ask just now, she really didn't know what to say.

After the two agreed to read the book again tomorrow, Xu Fengnian sent her back.

I thought Ling Wan really hated him, but now it seems that she doesn't hate herself as much as she imagined!
……

Duan Xiya arranged the banquet scene one day in advance, and there are basically everything in the palace, so it is not so much the banquet held by her, as it is held by the court of Da'an Dynasty.

Those who came to participate were basically the students of the Imperial College.

Originally, Duan Beinan didn't want to participate, but Prince Chen gave him a suggestion, and in order to further understand everything about the Da'an Dynasty, he also participated in this banquet.

Before the banquet started, everyone enjoyed the flowers in the garden. In Duan Xiya's words, there was no distinction between men and women in Xiliang, and both men and women could sit together.

This point won Ling Wan's heart deeply, isn't it like this in the 21st century?

Xu Fengnian knew Duan Xiya's vicious heart, so he followed Lingwan all the time, until she was about to start eating, Lingwan couldn't bear it anymore, "I said, son, why do you keep following me?"

"I'm afraid she will hurt you. With me here, I will protect you."

"..."

Well, I'm a little moved.

Before Lingwan could say anything, Duan Xiya asked someone to come over with a jug, "Miss Ling, I invite you to taste the wine from our Xiliang country. This wine is not like your wine, it has a fruity aroma!"

"Really? Unfortunately, our girl's family doesn't drink alcohol." Ling Wan refused directly.

Her refusal caused Duan Xiya's complexion to change, and she stared at her unwillingly, "Miss Ling, what does this mean? Don't give me face?"

"You invited my fiancee but didn't invite me. It seems that you treat us as a family, so it's the same for me to drink." Xu Fengnian took the wine glass and drank it directly.

Duan Xiya glared at Xu Fengnian resentfully, again!

Seeing him kill him in one gulp, Ling Wan worried, "Are you alright?"

After drinking, Xu Fengnian saw that she was worried about him, so he shook his head, "I'm fine, I drink well."

Even though the fruit wine has a high alcohol content, he won't get drunk easily.

A cup is indeed the case, but then Duan Xiya somehow incited the students of the Imperial College and asked them to come to toast...
