Chapter 697 Xianggong, mine (22)

   "Then, when you arrive in the capital, you have entered the Datong Mansion. Do you still have time to come out and meet me?"

  On the official road, the two people walking side by side, one red and one plain, their figures are incomparably coordinated.

  The warm sun shines on the wet oil-paper umbrella. The surface of the umbrella is wet and shiny, refracting the sunlight, as if a soft and hazy rainbow has formed on it.

  The two of them held hands together, and as they walked away, their voices seemed to disappear gradually with the rain falling.

   "There will be." He said softly.

   "Then, will it affect Xianggong's preparation for the scientific examination?"

"Won't."

   "So, that is to say, Xianggong is sure to win the election?"

  He hesitated for a moment, shook his head, "...I don't know."

  There are people beyond people, and mountains beyond mountains. He is just a poor scholar, so naturally he doesn't expect to be outstanding.

   "If you can't win the exam." Will you despise me?

   "Bah bah bah! Don't talk nonsense, Mr. Xiang. I believe in Mr. Xiang."

  She hugged his arm, thought about it, and laughed again,

   "If your husband doesn't pass the exam, then just follow me back to Heifeng Village and be my Mrs. Yazhai."

   "When you go back with me, I will give you delicious food and spicy food. If you respond to everyone, it will be more prestigious than being a number one official!"

  Rongli: "."

   "A gentleman does something, but does not do something. Burning, killing and looting is really a shameless thing. You shouldn't take it as an honor, and spend money like dirt."

  He exhorted seriously.

   "The ancients said that the so-called—"

   "Stop! Stop!" She covered her ears.

   "Forget it, Mr. Xianggong should work hard to get the first prize. When I pass the exam, I will rely on Mr. Xianggong to eat hot and spicy food."

  As soon as these words came out, the temperament of the little bandit was fully revealed.

  Rong Li couldn't help but laughed.

   "Why do you always want to eat spicy food?"

  Reincarnation of a starved ghost?

  His brows and eyes are smiling, just like today's warm sunshine, holding back a little warmth.

  This seemed to be the first time he had shown such a soft smile, the corners of his lips were curved softly, feeling extremely helpless.

  He took her by the hand, and the umbrella tilted to her side.

  Even if she leaned on him from time to time, he walked steadily and acted as her reliance naturally.

  Yun Si was about to refute, but when she saw him smiling, she touched her nose and groaned,

   "In short, my family should be more competitive. If you want to take the exam, you can come back with a champion."

   "In this way, I won't need to do my old job in the future."

  She is serious.

   "." He was still laughing, lowered his head, and smiled softly.

  The laughter was soothing and soft, like a breeze blowing across the lake, leaving ripples, without any hint of anger in it.

   It seems that she was really amused by her.

  Yun Si looked at him strangely, "Is what I said funny?"

  He smiled and remained silent.

   "In short, you should work harder and come back as a champion."

   "However, it doesn't matter if you don't get the No. 1 Scholar. It's fine if you get the second place or the third place."

   Seeing him smiling and listening, Yun Si cleared her throat and continued,

   "Think about it, although winning the No. 1 Scholar is very beautiful, and you can smoothly get promoted to the rank, but I heard that the current emperor is quite fond of talents."

   "In the big exam a few years ago, the new No. 1 scholar was given a marriage by the Holy One, and the object of the marriage was a princess."

   "That's why the No. 1 scholar suddenly transformed into a son-in-law, and became even more popular."

   "Think about it, if this year is the same, and the emperor bestows a marriage after winning the first prize, then I—"

   "Are you worried about this?" Rong Li looked at her with a smile.
