Chapter 10

Immediately, the thick cotton curtain was pushed.

Yao Xuanci wanted to turn his gaze, but found that his perspective could not move at all—this was just a dream.

He woke up suddenly.

The night was quiet and silent, and the cold moonlight shone into the room through the window, and the sandalwood-colored ceiling could be clearly seen through the moonlight.

At the last glance, it was the pair of white hands that pushed the thick curtain away.

This dream was extremely lucid and almost real, leaving only endless fatigue after waking up.

Yao Xuanci rubbed his slightly painful temples and sat up halfway, with a hint of irritability in his cold and calm phoenix eyes.

Knowing that it was just a dream with no beginning or end and no need to care about it, he felt that something was changing silently and out of his control.

The young man's beautiful eyes drooped indifferently. He didn't like the feeling that he was about to lose control. If this dream was a foreshadowing...

The thin soft quilt slides to the abdomen as she sits up, and the messy skirt is opened to reveal the delicate collarbone, and the strong chest under the smooth lines can be vaguely glimpsed.

He casually pulled down his skirt, stepped on the ground with bare feet in his thin white pajamas, lit the lamp, and took off his robe from Mu Shi by the dim yellow candlelight.

After taking care of his appearance and dressing neatly, Yao Xuanci casually put on the belt around his waist, and called coldly, "Mo Ya."

Soon, an ink shadow that was about to melt into the night pushed the door in, and stood neatly outside the wooden door of the falling moon, "Young master."

"Prepare the carriage and go pick up Mrs. Shizi."

Mo Ya was taken aback when he heard the words, and looked outside the room for confirmation, and said frankly, "My lord, just after the time of the cock crowing and ugly, the lights are so dark, Mr. Wen still has to wait two hours to go to court."

You are here too early.

Yao Xuanci walked out of the inner room and gave him a cold look, "When did you talk so much nonsense?"

Mo Ya: "..." Okay, it seems that the young master is in a very bad mood.

"Your subordinate is going to prepare the carriage."

After saying that, he held the sword and fled the wing quickly, but he almost bumped into a maidservant with a lamp as soon as he left the courtyard.

The other party was startled by him, and backed up again and again with a scream. As a result, his feet limp and fell to the ground, and the lantern in his hand rolled to the side.

Mo Ya quickly picked up the lantern and reached out, "Are you alright?"

With the help of the light, he saw the maidservant's delicate eyebrows and eyes, and frowned, "What are you doing here?"

The maid also recognized who was in front of her eyes, and immediately said angrily, "So it was you, you scared me to death."

She got up and wiped the dust on her clothes, "My girl had a nightmare and couldn't sleep, so she wanted to ask the eldest son, he used to suffer from insomnia, do you have any more sleeping incense that the girl gave him?"

"How long has it been? My son sleeps soundly every night, and the sleeping incense is long gone, and it's troublesome to find it."

Mo Ya still had to prepare the horse, so he hurriedly said, "White Crow is not guarding your side, if you need anything, just look for him, go back quickly, it will be bad if someone bumps into you."

Seeing his perfunctory attitude, the servant girl couldn't help being annoyed, and grabbed him, "My girl treated you well in the past, and you just repay her like this?!"

What a kindness to feed the dog, white-eyed wolf!

"..." Mo Ya thought in his heart, it's not bad to treat a guard of the Marquis's mansion as a servant of the Duke's mansion, ordering him to come and go in the wind and rain?

One must know that the white crow has been guarding Dongyuan for the past few days, and being tormented so much is what makes him miserable.

Seeing Mo Ya's guilty silence, she snatched back the lantern in his hand with a soft snort, "What are you doing in such a hurry, is your son awake?"

"Go and pick up my family's wife." Mo Ya didn't want to be bothered, "Mrs. Hou also has sleeping incense. If you keep lingering, it will be dawn."

After that, he left in a hurry.

The maid stared at his back angrily, this Moya is always weak, her girl didn't send her here to ask for the sleeping incense of Nao Shizi.

Then Wen's is also hypocritical, he stayed at his mother's house and let the elder son pick him up in the middle of the night, so he can't walk back by himself?

She looked at the closed courtyard door in front of her, and she felt a shudder in her heart, and directly raised her hand to push it open.

Mrs. Hou said that those close relatives of the Wen family who came as dowries also went back, and there were only people from the Hou family in the Qingyu courtyard.

The girl in her family thinks about it day and night, and in her dreams, she is thinking that the elder son can spend more time with her, and now is the right time.

Illuminated by the faint candlelight of the lantern, the maid walked softly into the courtyard.

After passing through the front courtyard, she carried a lantern and stepped over the moon gate, and saw the light in the main wing in the distance, suppressed the joy in her heart, and immediately quickened her pace.

Walking to the middle of the courtyard, the closed door was pulled open, the maidservant's eyes lit up, and she trotted over, "My lord!"

Under the bright moonlight, a young man in a moon-white brocade robe stood under the eaves, a gust of night wind blew up, the lanterns under the eaves swayed with the wind, and the bright and dim candlelight fell on him.

"Why did you step into Qingyu Temple without authorization?"

"Returning to the son, the servant is here for my daughter."

The maid still remembered the rules, and stood at the bottom of the steps and hurriedly curtseyed.

"The girl hasn't been able to sleep well in the past few days since she entered the mansion. Could you go and see her?"

"Me?" The young man raised his tone slightly, as if he didn't understand.

But she could hear a slight sneer.

The maid thought she had misheard, ignored it, and said eagerly, "Naturally, the son of the world knows what the girl wants, and you are the most miraculous medicine for her."

Yao Xuanci looked down at the maidservant from a high position, expressionless, "If I can't sleep, I should seek a doctor from the government. I am a human being, not a medicine, so what's the use of going there."

The maid raised her head in astonishment, her indifferent eyes looked at her calmly, and she shrank her shoulders in fear.

How is this different than expected.

As if hearing her heartfelt voice, the young man said with a bit of displeasure, "Miss Zheng Er insisted on staying in the Hou Mansion to recuperate from her injuries. I only agreed because of the prince's favor."

Yao Xuanci didn't expect that a temporary retreat would lead to the current troubles. He walked down the steps, his voice was light and not heavy, but with a strong sense of oppression.

"She, Yunying, is not married. Those of you who are close to her should always be careful."

The lantern in his hand was taken away by him, and the servant girl didn't dare to look up. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of those slender fingers holding the thin light pole, took out the wick in the lantern, and then mercilessly snuffed it out.

She couldn't help shivering, wondering if it was because the Wen family knew that the girl was in the Hou's mansion and ran back to her mother's house arguing, which made the elder son change his mind?

Yao Xuanci held the light pole, and knocked on the stone slab under his feet twice, "This is Huai'an Marquis Mansion, not Zheng Guogong's Mansion."

"Don't make any troubles on your own, and make your girl lose face."

The maid suddenly realized when she heard the words, it turned out that the son was angry because he was worried about her girl's reputation.

She immediately breathed a sigh of relief, yes, the son of the world is upright and self-restraining, and he pays the most attention to character and rules.

The panic that surged in my heart subsided in an instant, and the servant girl hid the joy in her heart, "My servant understands, don't worry, my son, this servant will advise the girl."

Dawn breaks in the east, and the orange-red sun blazes up into the sky. Chixia, the morning light steps on the head of the morning glow and shoots a sharp point, falling on the stunning sea of flowers, the breeze blows, and the vine leaves slowlyrattle.

Today is the day when the palace examination results are released, so to celebrate it, Wen Qiong wore a scarlet twirled gold silk cloud embroidered dress that stretched across the ground, and a green belt was tied around her waist, making her waist as thin as a willow.

She had always only worn light-colored clothes, but when she changed into such a stunning and strong color, she raised her chin slightly, making her look a little brighter and more charming, making it hard to move her eyes away for a long time.

Nanny Song stroked the Pisces jade pendant around her waist, took two steps back and looked it over, very satisfied, "Girl should wear more bright clothes in the future."

Wen Boqing was born with a beautiful face. As twins, Wen Qiong has a natural appearance, but she loves a gentle and light color, and the first thing that catches the eye is the gentle and outstanding temperament.

Wen Qiong smiled slightly, "It's too eye-catching, I just hope that my brother will not let me down with my outfit today."

She pulled back her skirt and sat back on the round stool, and asked A Yao to hold the hairpin for her. The ruby forehead pendant was cold and pressed against her forehead, which was quite refreshing.

As soon as he put on the emerald jade pendant, he heard Ah Shen's voice excitedly shouting, "Girl! The list is released~"

Wen Qiong got up quickly and walked out of the room impatiently, "Is it Jinshi, or the top three?"

Even though I've already experienced it once, still can't help but look forward to it.

"It's the top three!"

The boy jumped up and down, and stopped in front of Wen Qiong with a sudden brake, his eyes were bright.

"It's Tanhualang!"

"Isn't that the most handsome one with the best fame?"

Wen Qiong's brows and eyes were full of bright smiles, and she hurriedly called A Yao and Nanny Song.

"Hurry up and go to your mother's yard to receive the red reward and be happy."

Suddenly, everyone heard a soft snort, "My family's eldest son has won the number one scholar."

Ah Shen turned his head, and saw a man dressed in black clothes as a guard holding a sword standing outside the door, Wen Qiong recognized him immediately.

She smiled slightly, "Mo Ya?"

"Madam is well." Mo Ya raised his head after cupping his fists in salute, seeing Wen Qiong holding back his smile, he was a little puzzled.

Why is Madam still a little unhappy seeing him?
