MTL - The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister-Chapter 9

  Chapter 9

   In the next few days, Wen Ning did not go out.

  She made a lot of ideas, and even prevented Pei Youdian from passing the examination, and prevented him from recognizing his relatives.

  If he hadn't been born as the No. 1 Scholar, and he was also blessed by the status of the son of the Duke of the State, how could he have risen to the top and joined the cabinet in just a few years? So much so that after covering the sky with one hand and doing such evil things as bullying men and women, no one cares about it.

  But after all, she is only a girl from the family of a fourth-rank minister who has not been out of the cabinet, and the number of times she can enter and leave the palace in a year can be counted on the fingers, so how can she have such great ability.

Therefore, Wen Lan came to Xiangti Garden with a face of surprise, and said that Wang You, whom they had met in Ci'en Temple that day, was actually the first in high school. At the beginning of this session, she was still thinking hard about how to separate herself from the "little girl". Ya" is removed.

Seeing that Wen Ning was unmoved, with an expression of neither surprise nor joy, Wen Lan waved the paper fan and said, "You may not know Shuzhi's previous results, but he won the first place every time before the test, and this time he will be the best again." Yuan, if he wins the first place in the imperial examination half a month later, he will be the No. 1 Scholar of Six Yuan! That will be the first No. 1 Scholar of Six Yuan and No. 1 since the founding of my Great Chu Dynasty!"

  Wen Ning was holding a book on the low couch without blinking: "Isn't elder brother not interested in court affairs?"

Wen Lan coughed in embarrassment: "When did I stop being interested in the affairs of the court? I'm just not interested in the little things in the court... If I can forgive you this time as a commoner, and get six yuan, it will shock the court and the public." Who wouldn't care about such a big event?"

  Wen Ning raised her eyebrows slightly, and rested her chin with her hands instead.

   All right, let’s care, there are still many days when you will care about him in the future.

   "What's more, I'm not..."

   Didn't I want to bring you together...

  Wen Lan didn't say this, but couldn't help but sighed.

  It's a pity, if it wasn't for the fact that Wang You already had a marriage contract, it would be an excellent candidate to be her brother-in-law, and Wen Ning has always admired talents...

  Thinking of this, Wen Lan said again: "A Ning, Shen Jin actually got the second place in the exam this time, do you know?"

  Wen Ning pulled her thoughts back a little.

  Shen Jin took second place in the exam. No one has informed her yet, but she knows it.

  Not only will he be second in the examination, but he will also rank far ahead in the palace examination. He is the second second-class Jinshi of the Shen family after Shen Gaolan.

  As a general, he only spends more than a month in the Imperial College every year, and it is indeed staggering to achieve this result.

  In the previous life, Shen Jin also had this achievement because of this achievement, so he was more confident against the Liang family, so he insisted on marrying her into the family.

   "You don't need to tell me about the Shen family's affairs in the future." Wen Ning said calmly.

  After the last trip to Ci'en Temple, she has already looked for opportunities to express her thoughts to Wen Lan.

  Wen Lan let out a "tsk", this little sister made him more and more incomprehensible.

  Clearly looking forward to Shen Jin's return home after the New Year's holiday, timidly came to inquire about the date of his return home, why did he suddenly change his gender, saying that he only regarded Shen Jin as an older brother.

   Poor Shen Jin, it was because she said that she admired talents that she went to the reference meeting.

  Wen Lan leaned close to Wen Ning, wanted to tease her, but she glanced at the book in her hand: "A Ning..."

  Wen Lan was a little speechless, "You can read your book backwards for so long?"

  Wen Ning glanced at the book in her hand.

   "..."

  Just now, she just took a copy and opened it casually, thinking about Pei You, but didn't really read it.

   "A Ning, why do I think you have something on your mind?" Wen Lan sat down opposite her, put away the book in her hand, and said with concern, "Is there something on your mind that you can't share with your elder brother?"

  Wen Ning's entangled matter, how can he explain it clearly in a few words? What's more, if she speaks out, she will be regarded as a lunatic.

   It's just that she has been restless and irritable these days because she met Pei You in advance.

  Wen Ning also asked: "Brother, how did you meet Wang You?"

  In her last life, she never heard Wen Lan mention Wang You, and she never thought that they knew each other so early.

  Wen Lanma was surprised and said: "Ah Ning, you have stayed behind closed doors these few days, are you thinking of Wang You?"

"I…"

  Wen Ning had no time to defend herself, but Wen Lan said incredulously, "Could it be that you have fallen in love with Wang You already?!"

   "I..." Wen Ning didn't say a word, but suddenly his mind lit up.

  She was thinking of Pei You?

  She fell in love with Pei You?

  Why not?

  Others don't know that she has lived a lifetime, don't know the kindness and resentment she had with Pei You, don't know the suffering she has suffered from Pei You, and even Pei You himself, it is impossible to know.

  Pei You's facial features are well-rounded, she has learned a lot, and she is about to reach the sixth yuan. In the last life, many noble women in Beijing flocked to her. It is a normal thing for her, a boudoir who has always admired talents, to fall in love with him!

  But this "normal" thing, in Pei You's eyes?

  Pei You has always been very scheming, so he deliberately said "Xiaoya" that day, and even said that Xiaoya was his fiancée, which was clearly a temptation.

  If she was Xiaoya when she was young, and she fell in love with him, and knew that he was looking for her all the time, she could admit her identity directly, and everyone would be happy.

  So, if she fell in love with Pei You, but never revealed her identity to Pei You, then in Pei You's view, there is only one conclusion—she is not Xiaoya.

  She just looks somewhat similar to Xiaoya when she was young.

  Wen Ning's eyes suddenly lit up at the flash of thought, and her cheeks turned bright red due to the violent emotional fluctuations.

  Wen Lan looked at her always reserved sister in disbelief. Just because he mentioned a name and said a word, her eyes sparkled with excitement, her cheeks flushed, and she held her forehead with a headache: "Ah Ning, you..."

   "Brother, Ah Ning is sleepy, so she retreated first." Wen Ning lowered her head and hurried to the inner room.

   In Wen Lan's eyes, she was too shy and left the scene in a hurry.

  Thinking of Wang You's words "I'm already engaged", Wen Lan took the handle of the fan and slammed it on the head: "This is a disaster!"

  —

  Wen Ning did not lie to Wen Lan. She went into the inner room and lit a piece of tranquilizing incense, then lay down with all her clothes on.

   It's just that she didn't sleep, but lay quietly on the couch thinking about the flash of thought just now.

   Do the opposite. Instead of hiding, she took the initiative to launch an offensive, saying that she fell in love with him, which might be a good way to deal with Pei You.

  Pei You, who is thoughtful and thoughtful, never imagined that she fell in love with him, and also heard with his own ears that he claimed to be engaged to "Xiaoya" and had been looking for her, so why didn't she recognize him.

   But is it okay to just "show love"?

  In his previous life, Pei You had indeed never looked directly at a woman who offered to show his love, but at that time he already had such a white moonlight as her, and he claimed to be affectionate and loyal.

this life…

  Wen Ning was a little uncertain.

  If Pei Youzhen treats her differently if she expresses it, isn't she shooting herself in the foot?

  Impossible.

  Wen Ning turned over.

  If... If he can "express love" and at the same time make him hate her, hate her, and even walk away when he sees her...

Um…

  Wen Ning opened her water-colored eyes, and her long eyelashes fluttered.

In her previous life, she was forced to stay by his side for nearly ten years. She had seen all kinds of bees and butterflies rushing towards him. He was patient with what kind of woman he was, what kind of woman he ignored, what kind of woman he was. He can't avoid women, she knows it all too well.

  If it is handled properly, even if she stands in front of him one day and says that she is "Xiaoya", he won't believe it...

  Wen Ning's eyes lit up, as if she saw a bright light on the long dark road, and the road ahead had a direction.

   Only by making him really loathe her can she be considered safe.

   But a gust of wind blew, and the candle shook.

  Wen Ning frowned and turned around again.

   If this method is used, there is a problem to be solved - she needs to overcome the fear of facing Pei You.

In her previous life, Pei You had imprinted too deeply on her heart, but if every time she met him in the future, as in the past few days, she tried her best to barely say a few words to deal with it, no matter how good this method is, it would be useless On the contrary, it made him suspicious in vain.

  Linglan saw that Wen Ning was out of her mind these days, she didn't sleep very well, and she didn't eat much. When Wen Lan came over in the afternoon, she left in a hurry and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner herself.

  Wen Ning has always been fond of her cooking skills, and she can always have a good bowl of rice today.

  Unexpectedly, when she came back with dinner, she saw Wen Ning lying on the bed, turning over and over like a pancake, the expression on her face was joyful at times, light at times, solemn at times, and then heaved a long sigh.

  Linglan put down her dinner, hurried over, and pressed the back of her hand to Wen Ning's forehead: "Young lady, don't you need to ask the doctor to take a look?"

  Wen Ning turned over again: "No need."

   "But I've been watching the girl for the past few days..." Linglan hesitated to speak.

  Wen Ning has stopped screaming in her dreams these days, but gritted her teeth and moaned there, it seems that the dream is still unexpected.

   "I'll follow the doctor's prescription and get some more medicine for the girl." Linglan turned and left.

   "Linglan..."

  Wen Ning didn't have time to yell, seeing that the figure had disappeared behind the screen, she sighed and sat up from the bed.

  She saw the dinner served by Linglan at a glance, and it was all her favorite.

  She walked over, smelled the aroma of the food, sighed again, sat down and ate with a bowl.

When she was about to die in her previous life, Linglan also cooked for her meal after meal, and then kept saying in her ear: "Girl, my lord has agreed, as long as your health is better, you can let us go. Would you like to leave?" Where are you going? Jiangnan? Beyond the Great Wall? He won't hold us any longer. Wherever you want to go, Alan will accompany you."

  She doesn't believe it.

  Pei You will not let her go unless she dies.

   This is what he said himself.

When she just woke up in this life, she refused to believe it for a while, thinking that it was either a dream, or Pei You used some means to send her and Linglan back to the old Wen Mansion, and repaired the Wen Mansion, creating the illusion in front of her eyes .

  Even when Wen Tingchun came to her hospital bed, she subconsciously believed that it was Pei You who asked a charlatan to disguise him, just like her escape.

  The real Wen Tingchun passed away long ago in the dungeon.

  Until she accidentally saw her hands, tender and small, no matter how much she kneaded them, they still looked like when she was fourteen or fifteen years old.

  Wen Ning put the food into her mouth mouthful, chewing vigorously as if venting.

  She is not a bold and innocent person, but she has never been a cowardly character, otherwise she would not have tried to break free from Pei You's cage time and time again.

  But this time I am reborn...

  Perhaps she is indeed too much of an animal. She has really gone back to the past, and Pei You is still Wang You at this time, has not yet returned to the Duke's mansion, let alone has the name of champion, he even knows nothing about her.

  What has she to be afraid of?

When Linglan came back, she saw that the table full of food had been swept away. Wen Ning, who seemed unhappy just now, gracefully wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, with a calm expression and firm eyes: "Linglan, we Let's go over there, big brother."
