“What do you want Mr. Zhang to ask?”

 Zhang Xu took a step closer and lowered his voice slightly: "The Miss Kou I met before is really not your cousin, but Mr. Xin who is disguised as a man?"

Duan Yunlang frowned in frustration.

 He really didn't like hearing these words now.

Without waiting for a reply, Zhang Xu raised his eyebrows: "Are you mute?"

"Yes." Duan Yunlang responded and said calmly, "Mr. Zhang, please step aside. It's time for me to return to my dormitory."

"Did I let you go? I haven't finished asking yet!" Zhang Xu was a bit arrogant. He could be restrained in front of people of higher status than him, but he was arrogant against the nephew of a young Taipusi Shaoqing. .

Duan Yunlang asked patiently: "Master Zhang, what else do you want to ask?"

“That girl Xin really looks exactly like your cousin?”

 “Yeah.” Duan Yunlang felt that he couldn’t bear it any longer.

Is it the same as cousin Qing?

Now that I think about it carefully and recall it over and over again, there are actually some differences. It's just that Cousin Qing is quiet and low-key. Although she has lived at home for four years, no one will seriously stare at her.

Even though he is his brother who thinks he is familiar with Cousin Qing.

Duan Yunlang regretted and blamed himself when he thought of this.

Zhang Xu’s question came again: “Then your cousin has died a long time ago?”

 “Who did you say died?” Duan Yunlang couldn’t bear it anymore, pushed Zhang Xu away and strode away.

 “This bastard!” Zhang Xu said with a sullen face and wanted to chase him, but was stopped by two followers.

“Brother Zhang, don’t be impulsive. If you fight in the Imperial Academy, you will be severely punished.”

Zhang Xu stared at the direction Duan Yunlang left and clenched his fists.

 He asked with anger.

Once the news reached his ears that Mr. Xin was Miss Kou, Zhang Xu suddenly felt that something was wrong, unlike others who just treated it as anecdotes.

This girl Xin is the daughter of Queen Xin. And Gu Changbo Mansion killed Queen Xin. Since Miss Xin is the Kou girl, how can she give advice and help Dai Ze?

Zhang Xu clearly remembered how highly Dai Ze admired Miss Kou. Even he regarded Miss Kou as a superior person.

But now that he knew Miss Kou's true identity, Zhang Xu couldn't help but suspect that Dai Ze had been set up, and that the collapse of the Guchangbo Mansion might be related to this.

Poor Dai Ze, when he was sent to the frontier, he still regarded the "Kou girl" as a friend of an expert!

So Zhang Xu couldn't see Xin You, so he came to see Duan Yunlang.

 “Let’s go!” Zhang Xu suppressed his anger, fluttered his sleeves and walked out.

 At Qingsong Bookstore not far from the Imperial College, Liu Zhou pulled the shopkeeper Hu and said, "Shopkeeper, something is wrong!"

The boy glanced at the backs of the supervisors who walked around the lobby after coming in and left empty-handed, and whispered: "Usually there are a few students who come to visit the bookstore when school is over, but how come there are dozens of them today?" ? He didn’t buy books or pens, he just walked around for two times and then left, everyone still stretched his head to look behind..."

“Something’s not quite right.” Shopkeeper Hu touched his beard out of habit. Suddenly something occurred to him and his beard exploded.

No, the secret of the mountains of silver piled up in the warehouse must have been leaked, right?

 “Here we go again.” Liu Zhou reminded Shopkeeper Hu who suddenly looked nervous.

Shopkeeper Hu looked at the door and saw three supervisors walking in. The leader of the three is the eldest grandson of Zhang Shoufu. As a bookstore owner with pursuits and ambitions, he has long remembered this face.

Shopkeeper Hu went up to say hello.

Zhang Xu glanced around the library and saw several supervisors who were dawdling around. Without thinking, he knew that they were all here because of the rumor.

 In fact, everyone knows that you cannot meet "Kou girls" here, but this is a bookstore opened by "Kou girls", and "Kou girls" used to be there often. Take a stroll here to soothe your restless curiosity without actually seeing anyone. Zhang Xu thought these people were naive.

 He wasn't just curious.

“Shopkeeper, when will your boss come?”

Even if she is no longer Miss Kou, there is no way she will not come to the bookstore.

As soon as these words came out, the several supervisors in the study hall and the supervisors who strolled in later all pricked up their ears.

Shopkeeper Hu was full of vigilance, with a calm expression on his face: "My boss has gone back to live in Shaoqing's Mansion and hasn't been to the bookstore for a few days."

Zhang Xu looked strange: "The shopkeeper doesn't know yet?"

Other supervisors also sounded surprised: "The bookstore doesn't know about it yet."

“Mr. Zhang, what should we know?” Liu Zhou couldn’t help but ask.

This time the news spread from top to bottom and has not yet reached the market. Xin You didn't send a message to Shopkeeper Hu and others, and the Shaoqing Mansion couldn't care less about it. The students who went to Qingsong Bookstore to satisfy their curiosity would not say anything because of Xin You's sensitive identity.

Looking at the young boy's blank eyes, Zhang Xu smiled: "Do you know Mr. Xin?"

 Liu Zhou nodded.

I know very well that "Journey to the West" was written by Mr. Xin in the name of Mr. Songling. Although Mr. Xin said that Mr. Song Ling was someone else and he was just relaying Mr. Song Ling's stories, it was already remarkable to be able to retell these stories exactly as they were.

"Your boss is Mr. Xin. When she comes to the bookstore again, tell her that I have something to see her." Zhang Xu put down these words and turned around and left.

Liu Zhou stayed for a while and asked shopkeeper Hu in a daze: "Shopkeeper, did I hear wrongly? Mr. Zhang said that his boss is Mr. Xin."

 Shopkeeper Hu: Sluggish...

Liu Zhou saw that he could not count on the shopkeeper, so he sighed and asked a supervisor standing by the bookshelf. After giving the supervisor a copy of "Journey to the West" for free, he successfully found out the details.

The hair from the soles of his feet floated back to Shopkeeper Hu. Liu Zhou pulled on the sleeve of the old shopkeeper and said in a trembling tone: "Shopkeeper, my boss is the father-in-law, the princess..."

Shopkeeper Hu, who has just recovered: continues to be sluggish...

Xinyou stayed at the princess's mansion for a few days and proposed to go back to her residence.

"I will go to the palace for the banquet in two days. Let's go back and stay after the banquet." Princess Zhaoyang advised.

This palace banquet will be a banquet for Xin You to officially get to know people in the royal family. With Emperor Xingyuan's attitude, the people below dare not ignore it, and the preparation time cannot be short.

"I will come over early on the day of the banquet and go to the palace with my aunt. I will stay here for the next two days so that I can adapt to my new identity."

 It doesn’t matter whether I feel comfortable or not, the main thing is to let others adapt.

Xin You stayed in the Princess's Mansion for a few days, and did not go out despite all the gossip outside, just to give those people she knew some time to adapt.

Princess Zhaoyang knew that her niece had an idea, so she no longer forced her to stay: "Then let the palace's carriage pick you up that day."

Xin You thanked her and returned with Xiao Lian, who had been picked up from the Shaoqing Mansion on the second day after moving into the Princess's Mansion, and Qian Feng and Ping An, who had rushed back from the imperial mausoleum after sending someone to deliver the message this morning. The house was previously given by Emperor Xingyuan.

 “Welcome the girl back home!” The steward led everyone to greet her.

Xin You has a good memory. After a few glances, he found that many people had been changed. Most of the male servants were replaced by female maids, and the number of guards was also increased.

These people were strangers to her. It didn't matter whether they were changed or not. After giving the steward a few words, she entered the house.

 At noon, Xiaoba, who had gone directly from the imperial mausoleum to the farm on the outskirts of Beijing, came with the Sixth Master.
