When Xie Qing left, Zhang Qingjiu frowned, thought about it and was about to follow him out when he suddenly remembered that there seemed to be someone else in the room.
He turned his head and looked at Su Zijin, who was waiting inside and not listening to what he said, but was standing in the yard.
Su Zijin's body trembled suddenly, and he subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but he seemed to remember something. He quickly took two steps forward, "I didn't mean to listen to you, I just...watched you go out suddenly.
, worried about whether there will be any accidents."
Regarding Su Zijin's explanation, Zhang Qingjiu was not surprised at all, nor was he at all angry. The look in his eyes was calm as if nothing had happened.
Nodding, Zhang Qingjiu said: "What about you? Is the matter over?"
"Say, it's over." Su Zijin almost didn't react when he suddenly heard the change of topic.
He seemed to care a little bit about her indifference.
"Then I'll take you out." Zhang Qingjiu said with a slight smile.
Su Zijin's eyes flashed and he lowered his head, "Okay."
It is true that there was nothing important for him to come here today, just to express his gratitude.
but……
With a gentle breath, Su Zijin finally said the words that had been lingering in his mind for several days, "I'm sorry, it was my fault that exposed your identity."
If it weren't for him, she would still be happily and freely dressing up as a man and guarding that small stall, right?
There was an endless stream of people on the left and right. She sat under the shade of the tree, and the surroundings were still peaceful and relaxing.
Instead of being bound and restrained like at this moment.
Zhang Qingjiu had already taken half a step out of Jianjia Courtyard, but when he heard this, he came back to his senses, glanced at Su Zijin, and said calmly: "I told you before, because I accepted your money.
, so those things are what I should do; as for whether my identity will be exposed..."
After a pause, Zhang Qingjiu's eyes flashed, "Everyone has his or her own destiny, and what is supposed to come will always come. Do you think what I have done is to change my destiny against the will of heaven, but is that really the case? Is that what destiny should be?
What it looks like, who can tell?"
After saying that, looking at Su Zijin's thoughtful expression, Zhang Qingjiu sighed softly, turned around and walked out.
No one saw that the moment he turned his head, the originally serious and deep face suddenly became richer.
Looking at the sun above her head, Zhang Qingjiu twitched the corner of her mouth. She really didn't mean to say such words to deceive Su Zijin into confusion. It was really something... Once these people got in,
, it is difficult to come out.
However, Zhang Qingjiu, who was focused on rushing out the door, did not see that Su Zijin's doubtful and thoughtful eyes quickly turned clear, and finally became bright and firm.
She said that everyone has his own destiny.
But he only knew that if it weren't for her, his fate would have ended long ago.
"Sir, the Xie family girl is out." Watching the carriage parked opposite him slowly leave, Feng Zhi gritted his molars, his tone inexplicably indignant.
She is probably the only one in the world who can keep the current Crown Prince waiting for so long.
Didn't Baba come here before? She also said that she and His Highness had a close connection. Now they have been waiting for so long and she hasn't come out yet. Seriously...
Just as he was thinking about it, a familiar figure suddenly ran out from inside. Feng Zhi's eyes suddenly lit up and he subconsciously said, "Master, she is here."
Maybe the skirt she wore today was too complicated, and she had to hold it up when she left. This look was less crazier than she had seen in the past, and more charming and romantic that only belonged to a girl.
At the door, Zhang Qingjiu saw the parked black carriage almost at a glance. Her eyes lit up instantly. Just as she was about to get out, the person behind her suddenly called her.
Su Zijin stepped forward and stood in front of Zhang Qingjiu. Then he took a step back and bowed seriously, saying, "Zhang Qingjiu's kindness will be repaid by Zijin with a grass ring."
After saying that, Su Zijin left without looking back.
And Zhang Qingjiu felt the comfort that suddenly rose in his body, the gentle feeling that his soul was wrapped in the warm sunshine. Looking at Su Zijin's leaving back, he stood there for a long time before coming back to his senses.
"House..." Feng Zhi stared blankly at Zhang Qingjiu's almost "drawn" eyes at the door. The corner of his mouth twitched and he didn't dare to look back.
I saw that the curtain that had just opened a gap fell down instantly, and then a deep voice came, "Go back home."
Feng Zhi took a breath, looked back, and raised his voice a little before getting on the carriage, "Yes, Your Highness!"
At the door, Zhang Qingjiu finally came to his senses.
Looking at the carriage that was about to leave, he took a breath. He picked up his skirt and chased after it. He didn't care at all that it was a clear day and the sky was clear at the moment. "Your Highness, you are already here. Sit down before leaving!"
In the carriage, Chu Lan Gujing Wubo's eyes flickered slightly.
Feng Zhi quietly looked back and secretly slowed down.
Ever since, Zhang Qingjiu finally caught up with Chu Lan at the end of the alley in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Unexpectedly, when the person who had been waiting for a long time arrived, he didn't feel guilty at all. Instead, he curled his lips in grievance, "Why didn't His Highness let anyone know when he came?
Have fun."
Outside the carriage, Feng Zhi twitched the corner of his mouth and couldn't help but said, "Why don't you pass the news? I see that Sir Xiao Zhang is very busy today, either Mrs. Gaoming or Miss Xie, or else there will be a future number one scholar?"
"Not the number one scholar." Zhang Qingjiu frowned and said seriously.
Feng Zhi:???
Is this man out of his mind today? Is the key point in his words who is the number one scholar?
Seeing Feng Zhi's speechless look, Zhang Qingjiu curved his lips and lowered the curtain, his eyes shining brightly, "Your Highness arrived with Xie Qing, right? Wei Chen thought the person Yunque brought in was His Highness."
After hearing these words, Chu Lan, who originally looked at the book and didn't seem to know she had entered, finally slowly raised her eyes and asked, "How did you know?"
"Me?" Zhang Qingjiu raised his eyebrows and tugged on Chu Lan's sleeve, "If I say that I have a close connection with His Highness, will Your Highness be willing to believe it?"
Chu Lan looked at her deeply, her eyes gradually sinking.
When the substantial gaze fell on the finger that was picking up the wide sleeves of the robe, Zhang Qingjiu smiled and immediately retracted his hand.
Damn it, when will a dog man know what he wants?
Thinking of this, Zhang Qingjiu narrowed his eyes and said, "Actually, if His Highness doesn't come, I will also go to His Highness."
"Huh?" Chu Lan raised her eyebrows.
Zhang Qingjiu originally wanted to honestly say that a lot of people in the palace were forcing her to go on a blind date, and that the Prince's Palace was an excellent place for her to take refuge. However, when she thought of Chu Lan's "upright" character, she was afraid that after saying this, she would only
Let him move further away from you, and the words will turn around in a circle when they reach your lips.
"The flag that His Majesty rewarded, the rescue on the spot yesterday, and the speech for me in the court. Add these three things together, I have to express my gratitude to His Highness the Crown Prince." Zhang Qingjiu counted on his fingers and nodded.
Seeing her stern expression, Chu Lan narrowed his eyes slightly, fell on her white fingers, and lightly brushed his sleeves, "It's not my fault, Mr. Xiao Zhang, there is no need for it."
