?
Xu Lao became more and more suspicious of Ye Zhen's identity, but because of the presence of Lu Xiangzhi, he could not ask in detail. Even if he asked, there would be no answer.
Ye Zhen did not want to be Xu Lao's student, and Xu Lao did not force her. He reluctantly let Lu Xiangzhi be his student and let Ye Zhen come to play chess with him often in the future.
This was the best result. Satisfied, Ye Zhen followed Lu Xiangzhi out of the waterside pavilion.
Lu Lingzhi, who was waiting in the front hall, saw the brother and sister coming together. He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Ye Zhen. From her expression, he could not see the result.
"Big brother!" Lu Xiangzhi ran up happily. "Xu Lao promised to accept me as a student."
Lu Lingzhi smiled and patted him on the shoulder. "Very good, you have to be more attentive in the future."
"I didn't expect that Yao Yao could really break that chess game. Big brother, Xu Lao also said that he wanted to accept Yao Yao as a student, but she refused." Lu Xiangzhi could not suppress the joy in his heart.
"Why did she refuse?" Lu Lingzhi looked at Ye Zhen doubtfully.
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "I will go to the medical center in the future."
Lu Lingzhi glanced at her. "Let's go back first!"
"Big brother, big brother, I don't want to go back. I have been in the capital for so long, but I haven't been to the streets. I want to go." Ye Zhen knew that when she went back, she would be called by Lu Lingzhi to question her. He hoped that she would not go to the women's college, and maybe he would force her to become Xu Lao's student.
She didn't want to go back and listen to his preaching.
"Where do you want to go? I will accompany you. "Lu Xiangzhi said immediately.
Ye Zhen glanced at him. "Why do you, a big man, accompany me? Are you going to buy me rouge and face powder? "
Lu Xiangzhi's eyes widened. "You never bought these things before."
"The past is the past. I used to be so dark. Even if I put on rouge, you can't see it." Ye Zhen said angrily.
"…" Lu Xiangzhi could not find any retort.
Lu Lingzhi knew Ye Zhen's thoughts and did not want to expose her at this time. He just said lightly, "Since Yao Yao wants to go somewhere else, let's go back first."
"Then you have to be careful. Don't run around and come back early." Lu Xiangzhi said worriedly.
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "I'm not going anywhere. I'll just watch from the carriage.
Lu Lingzhi reminded her, "You didn't bring a maid with you, so don't go alone for too long."
"I see." Ye Zhen nodded cleverly, got on the carriage and let the servant go.
"This little sister …" Mumbled Lu Xiangzhi. Ever since he came to the capital, he found it increasingly difficult to see through Yaoyao's thoughts.
Lu Lingzhi chuckled and said, "A girl changes eighteen times between childhood and womanhood. Yaoyao is a big girl now, so she's naturally different from before."
"Lu" Lu said. "Yao Lu is is is." Lu Lu did not.
"Yao Yao Lao" did "Lu say". "not." "Lu" not of "Lu" was "be."
"Ye" of. "Wu" Lao is "of" of of Zhen of "of Not".
Ye Zhen got rid of her two brothers and finally didn't have to pretend her emotions. She looked at the scenery outside through the hazy screen window. She was no stranger to the capital, but now looking at the scene, she still felt a little confused.
After walking a few laps on the street, Ye Zhen asked the servant to stop the carriage beside her. After putting on her curtain hat, she went to a nearby shop to buy some snacks and a few boxes of rouge. Only then did she let the servant continue walking.
"Go to the east side of the city." Ye Zhen whispered.
Most of the residences in the eastern part of the capital were large mansions that had been around for a long time. The aristocratic families were all located in this area. Unlike the prosperous surroundings of the Lu family, this place had a long history. There were no new nobles here, only century-old aristocratic families that had been here for a long time.
The quietness here and the place where she lived now were two completely different environments.
"Stop!" Ye Zhen suddenly said. She lifted the curtain and looked at the big house across the street.
The seal of the gate had not been unlocked, and the plaque was not as bright as she remembered. Once the most powerful family in the Jin Kingdom, it had now fallen into ruin.
Ye Zhen's memory of the Ye family was still deep, but she dared not show it.
"It's very quiet here. I'll get off and walk around. You wait beside me." Ye Zhen took off the curtain hat on her head, got off the carriage and said to the servant.
"Third young lady, this little one will follow you." The servant said hurriedly.
Ye Zhen glanced at him and saw that he was only a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy. She smiled and asked, "What's your name?"
The servant was stunned by Ye Zhen's extremely beautiful smile and said, "Third young lady, this little one's name is Quan Fu."
"Quan Fu, you can see the end of the road here. I'm just walking here. What can happen to me? Wait for me here." Tomorrow, she would take the entrance examination of the Women's College. Her real test was finally coming.
Standing outside the Ye family's mansion, Ye Zhen's heart was surprisingly calm. To tell the truth, when she began to be sensible, she already felt that sooner or later the Ye family would suffer the disaster of extinction. When her grandmother was alive, she would restrain her uncle from doing too many evil things. Now that her grandmother had passed away, no one in the family could restrain her uncle.
Just as Father had said, First Uncle's desire for power had reached a kind of frenzied obsession. He treated human life as grass and encouraged the muddle-headed former Emperor to kill loyal officials. It had already reached a point where those who opposed him would perish. The Ye Family was really powerful at that time.
Ye Zhen did not want to avenge Ye Yisong. What she hated most about Mo Rongzhan was not his family's annihilation, but the fact that he sentenced her father and brother to death even though he knew they were innocent. The hatred of killing her father was absolutely irreconcilable! Not only Mo Rongzhan, but also Lu Lingzhi and his sister …
She had no ability to take revenge now, but she would have the opportunity in the future.
Ye Zhen took another look at the Ye family's mansion. If she had the chance in the future, she would take it back.
When she turned around and wanted to leave, she caught a glimpse of a figure flashing in the alley next to her.
Ye Zhen turned her head in surprise and saw a stunned and incredulous face. A woman in coarse cloth stood behind the pillar with her face covered, looking at Ye Zhen with big eyes.
It's her! Ye Zhen was also shocked. She looked back at the carriage and saw that Quan Fu was not looking elsewhere. She immediately walked towards the alley.
"Miss, miss … is that you?" Seeing Ye Zhen coming over, the woman almost knelt down, her voice choked with sobs.
Ye Zhen just looked at her indifferently. She knew who the other party was, but she couldn't say it. "Do you know me?"
This was her maid Hong Ling, who grew up with her. She thought Hong Ling had died in the fire. How could she be here?
