The reborn prince's wife

"It's His Majesty's love." Shen Yi was dressed in an ice-blue robe, embroidered with elegant bamboo leaf patterns on the golden piping, with a serene expression on his face, and the corners of his mouth curved into a smile, "In front of Mr. Chen, how can I afford to be so talented? word."

Everyone knows Mr. Chen's erudition and talent, and she is a senior to Shen Yi, so it's really inappropriate to hold him up in front of her, and Shen Yi's self-effacement is not pretentious.

It's just his words that made Lan Xi feel a little embarrassed, her face turned pale, she bit her lips and said nothing, she was quite pitiful and unbearable.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Shen wrote in the palace examination that 'a person is dead, he is heavier than Mount Tai, lighter than a feather, choose one and die', it has become a famous sentence through the ages." Liu Yun said softly, not for anyone. , as if it was just a casual remark.

The sentence she said was indeed the sentence Shen Yi admired the most in the palace examination in the capital, and it was indeed passed down from the palace as she said, but the days when Shen Yi returned to Linyang City were not too long, he The articles made in the palace examination were only circulated among the dignitaries and scholars in the capital, so very few people in Linyang City knew about them.

But I didn't expect that a daughter of a merchant could know what the upper-class dignitaries in the capital knew. The eyes of everyone looking at her unconsciously deepened. She is not favored, she is also the first daughter of the Mu family, and even though her mother passed away, her grandmother is the noble Mrs. Ji in the capital. It is well known that the Ji family is powerful. If the Ji family doesn't care about Ji Mengxian's children, How could Master Mu not have a real wife for so many years.

Many things are seen by everyone, but they don't expose them.

"When a person dies, he is more important than Mount Tai, lighter than a feather, choose one and die?" Mr. Chen is a scholar after all, and all she cares about is academic matters. She doesn't care why Liu Yun knows about the capital. It was Shen Yi's words.

She didn't expect that a young champion would be able to say such grand and ambitious words.

"It's really something that a wonderful person like Mr. Shen can say." Lan Xi looked up at him shyly, then lowered her head hastily again, with subtle expressions of affection in her eyes.

Naturally, the students here will not miss such an interesting scene. The marriage of Shen Mu's family is naturally known to the world, but now the daughter of the Mu family has not yet reached the age, so the matter of marriage has been postponed. For the candidate to marry Shen Yi Is it the unfavored first lady Liuyun or the favored concubine Lan Xi? I heard that there are people who set up a special gambling game, hoping to make a fortune from it.

"It seems that Second Miss Mu admires Mr. Shen very much." The woman sitting next to Lin Yan chuckled lightly, with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes.

"This..." Lan Xi quickly waved her hands, shaking her head in panic, "Miss Lin, don't say that."

This Miss Lin is Lin Yan's cousin, the youngest in the family, she is quite favored, so she always speaks straightforwardly, regardless of other people's opinions.

"Our family Xiao Yu likes to joke, Miss Mu should not be as knowledgeable as her." Lin Yan smoothed things over in a timely manner, but he didn't mean to blame Lin Yu. The little girl stuck out her tongue and rolled her eyes, pity Lan The affectation is disgusting.

After going back and forth, the topic was changed, and Shen Yi started chatting with Mr. Chen beside him. Mr. Chen seemed to appreciate Shen Yi very much, and they chatted very happily.

"How does Eldest Sister know the essays written by Mr. Shen in the palace examination?" Lan Xi asked with a smile.

"If you want to know, you will know." She picked up the teacup, took a sip, closed her eyes slightly, and savored the feeling of lingering fragrance.

Liuyun is a person who is used to drinking good tea, she is the eldest lady who has the best food and clothing, Lin has always done enough superficial work, and whenever her father brings back any good things, she will always go to them. Sending Yun here, if he hadn't known that she had other plans, Liu Yun would really think that she dotes on her.

The tea that Murong Mountain Villa entertained them was all top-grade Dahongpao, with rich aroma and low-key luxury, just like the feeling of this mountain villa.

"Isn't elder sister not liking Mr. Shen?" Lan Xi lowered her eyes and said gently.

A barely audible sneer spread in Liu Yun's eyes, she really looked up to Lan Xi, such a restless person, how could he be defeated by her in the previous life, Liu Yun couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Could it be that younger sister likes Mr. Shen?" This time, she turned her head to look at Lan Xi, her eyes were deep, and she had a feeling of seeing through her, with a half-smile, "Then what should I do?"

Lan Xi's smile froze, and she couldn't continue with her playful words, and pulled the brocade handkerchief in her hand anxiously.

"Actually, Shen Mu's family already has a marriage contract. If the younger sister goes to talk to Dad, maybe Dad will agree." Liu Yun's eyes flashed with disgust, and his tone was contemptuous, "But speaking of it, it's better to talk to Auntie , you also know that my aunt has worked so hard for your marriage."

In fact, the magistrate is not Lin's first choice. She has already made up her mind to the dignitaries in the capital, hoping to marry Lan Xi to the capital. Only with such in-laws can she take the position of mistress as she wishes. Although Linyang City is powerful, it was sent out by the imperial court after all. Lin always felt that Shen's residence was not as powerful as those from the capital.

"Thank you, Eldest Sister, for reminding me." Lan Xi kept smiling, but there was a bitterness in her smile. She didn't know her mother's plan, but marrying far away in the capital was not her good choice, especially since she was born as a concubine, and married The capital is at most a concubine, she has been oppressed by Liuyun for so many years, and she still is oppressed if she doesn't want to marry as a woman in the future.

She had had enough of such depressing days.

Liu Yun naturally saw what Lan Xi was thinking, she didn't point it out clearly, her cold eyes also warmed up slightly, she was looking forward to the infighting between their mother and daughter, it should be... very exciting, Liu Yun I wondered to myself, should I continue to add fuel to the fire?

Obviously, compared to Liu Yun's calmness, someone at the table was already ready to provoke.

"Mu Liuyun, didn't you say before that you would impress us by tasting poems? Why are you sitting shrunk down at the table and not talking?" Lian Wan'er, the daughter of the Lian family, has always been closest to Liuyun. It's not right, at this moment, of course, Liu Yun won't be able to sit comfortably in his seat and act as an invisible person.

Like the Mu family, the Lian family is also one of the best merchants in Linyang City. The Lian family had a very favored concubine in the past. It is said that most of this Miss Lian will be sent to the palace, so she thinks very highly of herself and has always looked down on her. Others, but Liu Yun never followed her, and never took Miss Lian seriously.
