"What was Ning Xian and Lan Li discussing in the Master's class?" Ji Qingzhuo asked the system.

The system quickly replied to her message: "It means that there was a person who had a dream at night and dreamed that he had become a butterfly. He thought that maybe his existence was just a dream of a butterfly, and they were debating whether this person was a person or a dream. Butterfly."

Ji Qingzhuo listened to it, and felt that it was outrageous. She didn't understand it very well, but it didn't prevent her from answering Lan Li's questions so that her identity would not be exposed.

She folded her hands together and fanned, as if the wings of a butterfly were flying up and down. Lan Li glanced at her and understood what she meant.

——She did discuss the issue of dreams and butterflies with Ning Xian back then. It was almost a small thing in their childhood, and no one should mention it.

Lan Li asked two more questions, and Ji Qingzhuo also answered them one by one, but the three pieces of information stipulated by the system had been used up, so she was worried that Lan Li would ask again.

At this time, Lan Li asked one last question. She asked, "Ning Xian, do you remember what I like to eat?"

Ji Qingzhuo couldn't answer this question, and she didn't plan to get an answer casually, so she shook her head honestly, and the pearl embellished on her temples swayed and collided, making a crisp sound.

Lan Li actually asked casually. She still didn't believe that Ji Qingzhuo was Ning Xian. She suspected that the Ning family had given her special training, so she asked an unrelated question. It was impossible for Ning Xian to know her. What they like to eat, when the two of them were in school when they were young, they didn't deal with it.

However, Ji Qingzhuo, who could answer any question originally, shook his head and fell silent.

Could it be that she was really Ning Xian, Lan Li looked at Ji Qingzhuo with her inquiring eyes.

Ji Qingzhuo didn't want to talk to her too much, but she didn't know where she was going. Lan Li had a lot of power in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. She was talking to Ji Qingzhuo, and others didn't dare to interrupt.

"I didn't expect that after so many years, you have really changed." Lan Li snorted softly, "It's just not an easy job to manage money, don't think that I can help you."

Ji Qingzhuo just pretended not to hear her, she was looking forward to hurrying to a quiet place, but fortunately Lan Li didn't dare to make things difficult for her too much, after all, "Ning Xian" was behind the Ning family.

She put Ji Qingzhuo in a separate small courtyard, where the withered bamboos are hidden, and the atmosphere is quite quiet, just in line with Ji Qingzhuo's intention.

However, Lan Li "deliberately" picked this place for Ning Xian. She knew that Ning Xian was out of her temper and liked the liveliness the most, so she chose a clean place for her to make her feel bored here.

As a result, she didn't expect that Ji Qingzhuo showed his love as soon as he came here, sat directly on the main seat, touched the back of the chair, and began to pack up.

Lan Li thought, she must be pretending, she is very happy, and she will not be able to hold back in a few days.

So, she explained the precautions for eating and living here, then left Ji Qingzhuo and left alone.

After Lan Li left, Ji Qingzhuo breathed a sigh of relief. She sat in her own position, relaxed, raised her hand and untied the cape that was draped over her shoulders, and put it on the truss beside her.

She likes it so much, it looks like no one will set foot in it for ten days and a half months.

Ji Qingzhuo went around here and found that the backyard here is the place to live. Lan Li said that every day, someone will bring meals, sweep, and clean up. There is no need to worry about everything in life, but it is definitely better than the family. The eldest lady's life is more difficult.

She didn't think it was hard, but she thought it was great. Ji Qingzhuo felt that she could work here for the rest of her life.

Ji Qingzhuo took out the Seeking Wheel and checked the positions of some demons in the palace. Now the Seeking Wheel is pointing to the east. The House of Internal Affairs where they are located is on the west side. This east is the deep palace. Emperor Liang was deeply bewitched.

She knew that this demon was not easy to deal with, so she had better not expose herself, so she put away the magic wheel and started to work.

Yes, Ji Qingzhuo came here pretending to be Ning Xian, and she actually worked hard. She was born with a sensitivity to numbers, so calculating these accounts was not a problem, and she even enjoyed it a little.

Moreover, due to her talent, her work efficiency is extremely fast, and she even took out the accounts of the previous years and corrected them, and sorted out all the vague and incorrect records.

She took down the dusty ledger on the bookshelf. The dust made her sneeze. At this time, there was a rustling of bamboo leaves outside the courtyard. In winter, these bamboo leaves are all withered and yellow, so when the wind blows, they rustle. Falling leaves, very fragile.

Ji Qingzhuo was immersed in his work, unable to extricate himself, until Shen Rongyu called her from outside the door: "What is Zhuozhuo doing?"

She turned around holding the account book, her face was covered with ashes, and she looked quite embarrassed. She showed the thick stack of account books in her arms, indicating that she was working hard.

Shen Rongyu understood what she meant. He was silent. After entering the palace, many trivial matters needed to be dealt with. After he was done with it, he immediately came to look for Ji Qingzhuo. Or maybe I miss him a little bit, after all, she is really clingy sometimes.

Unexpectedly, she was actually working and looked very focused.

"Zhuzhuo, speak." Shen Rongyu's voice calling her was a little dull.

Ji Qingzhuo didn't notice his strange emotions, she said, "I'm sorting out the accounts here, Xiaoyu, you know, there are many wrong accounts here in the past few years, and I found them all."

Shen Rongyu: "..." Isn't it normal for this kind of organization to seek some personal gain, why did you shake it all out to others?

"Aren't Zhuo Zhuo tired?" he asked sideways.

"I'm not tired." Ji Qingzhuo quickly flipped the ledger in her hand, and quickly browsed through these chaotic figures. The moment she saw the account, she had already calculated the result, which was extremely efficient.

Shen Rongyu: "..." Well, learning spells with me is tiring.

He walked into the house, with his Snow Burying Sword still hanging around his waist, but his white clothes were replaced by gray clothes. It was a neat outfit. He looked good in any color and style of clothes. Complimenting his narrow waist and broad shoulders.

Ji Qingzhuo was very absorbed in handling the accounts, Shen Rongyu held her cheeks and looked at her lazily, he thought, if Ji Qingzhuo wanted to run away in the future, he would lock her up, not give her any fun, let her Not even an account.

"Xiaoyu, why are you here?" Ji Qingzhuo noticed that the atmosphere around him was getting weirder, so he raised his eyes and asked Shen Rongyu.

"Since I'm free, I'm here to find you." Shen Rongyu said.

"But—" Ji Qingzhuo held an ink pen in her hand, and the tip of her pen for recording numbers stopped, "As the palace guard, shouldn't you be on patrol in the palace?"

"Yes." Shen Rongyu said this quite confidently, "I ran away."

Only fools work hard.

Such as Ji Qingzhuo.

"Oh." Ji Qingzhuo solved his doubts, then bowed his head again and continued to clear the accounts.

Shen Rongyu asked her, "Do you like it so much?"

Ji Qingzhuo's thoughts were interrupted again, she asked, "What do you like?"

"Accounting." Shen Rongyu pointed to the account book in front of her.

"The one who gave me the money in the palace is five hundred and two months a month." Ji Qingzhuo extended five fingers to Shen Rongyu, "Xiaoyu, this is all for me. I only earned three dollars a month before."

Shen Rongyu chuckled lightly: "Can I buy you for five hundred taels of silver?"

Ji Qingzhuo thought what he said was strange, but she still nodded: "Yes, it's okay to say less."

Shen Rongyu smiled again, but his smile was sincere: "Okay, Zhuo Zhuo will accompany me to the palace for a walk, and I will give you five hundred taels."

Ji Qingzhuo has his own considerations. She can sit here to settle accounts. If Shen Rongyu didn't come over, she could even lie down. If she went out for a walk with Shen Rongyu, she could be exhausted.

So she refused: "Xiaoyu, I want to sit."

Shen Rongyu was rejected by her so many times, but she was not even annoyed, because Ji Qingzhuo said every word very seriously.

He didn't speak any more, just accompanied her quietly. It wasn't until the evening that Ji Qingzhuo reorganized the accounts. In the past, it took at least a few months to recalculate the accounts for so many years, or three or four people together. Calculated, but Ji Qingzhuo took only one afternoon to reorganize it.

Ji Qingzhuo didn't think there was anything wrong with what she was doing. She closed the last page of accounts and ended today's work. She would not be stupid enough to hand in the results right away. She wanted to save them for a month or two. To report again, it is probably a little faster than ordinary people, so that the palace will not feel that the monthly money given to her is lost.

She is well versed in fishing, and after finishing, she leaned back on the chair and took a sip of tea.

Shen Rongyu's Snow Burying Sword was placed on the table, he smiled and asked her warmly, "Is it sorted?"

After work, you can always talk to him, right?

"Okay." Even if Ji Qingzhuo was chatting with people, his speech was dry.

"You want to solve this demon yourself?" Shen Rongyu asked.

"Well." Ji Qingzhuo nodded, "Xiaoyu, this is my own trial."

"Then I won't interfere." Shen Rongyu replied.

Like Ji Qingzhuo, he is actually a very boring person with no hobbies. Except for a certain goal that must be done, he doesn't seem to be interested in anything.

Now he has a little more fun, that is Ji Qingzhuo, such a dumb girl, sitting in front of him like this, is also cute.

Ji Qingzhuo put her chin on the table, and she asked, "Xiaoyu, the imperial kitchen will bring food later. If you don't leave, do you want to eat together?"

"Eat." Shen Rongyu replied.

"But I'm the only one living here, and they only give one." Ji Qingzhuo whispered.

"You eat less." Shen Rongyu glanced at her sideways, "It's time to learn to indulge."

Ji Qingzhuo was a little aggrieved, but didn't say it, because Shen Rongyu was right, she even took the initiative to bring him vegetables after dinner was delivered.

The food for the female officials in the palace was good. The main dish was a small half-steamed chicken. Ji Qingzhuo also broke off the chicken wings and sandwiched them for Shen Rongyu.

Shen Rongyu said that he wanted to eat, of course he was joking, he would not rush to eat with Ji Qingzhuo.

But he lowered his eyes and looked at Ji Qingzhuo's hand holding the vegetables for him, and still ate it, because her movements seemed very enthusiastic, and "passion" is rare here in Ji Qingzhuo. This made Ji Qingzhuo feel a little heartbroken. In Xuanyun Sect, Elder Qiao Shu would not cook such delicious food. Qiao Shu likes vegetarian food, so the diet in Mingxin Lake is very light.

Ji Qingzhuo took a small mouthful of rice, she thought, she seemed to be used to having another person beside her before she knew it, she was originally... difficult to get along with others.

But Shen Rongyu is different. Regardless of the system's mission, he is a very domineering person with a strong desire to control. He can't help but break into her life. From cultivation to daily life, everything has his presence.

Does she hate him like that?

of course not.

Ji Qingzhuo thought so, she wished that someone could arrange her life in an orderly manner, and Shen Rongyu just filled the vacancy she was looking forward to.

She thought that Shen Rongyu was fine. In order to thank him, she tore off the chicken legs from the plate and put them in his bowl.

"Xiaoyu, eat." Ji Qingzhuo said to him.

"You don't eat?" It doesn't matter if Shen Rongyu eats or not, but Ji Qingzhuo sometimes gets greedy.

"For you." Ji Qingzhuo is a person who is willing to share. When she came to Xuan Yunzong, she bought a few bags of carrots, which she and Mao Mao shared. Mao Mao eats good-looking ones, and she eats ugly ones. Carrots taste the same anyway.

Therefore, Shen Rongyu's current status is barely equal to Mao Mao's.

In Shen Rongyu's warm eyes like cold jade, the chill dissipated, his tone softened, and he returned the dish to Ji Qingzhuo.

"Eat more." He said to Ji Qingzhuo, "I will practice later."

The author says:

Xiaoyu: No, no, no, no fools are really working, right?

Zhuo Zhuo: I seem to have forgotten who Shen Rongyu is.
