chapter 72
During dinner, I kept paying attention to every word and deed of this girl who called herself "He Youwei".

I want to know what kind of girl can make the Young Master's family so caring.

I thought I would be lost, sad, jealous.

not at all.

Even I was surprised.

She knows etiquette, behaves decently, is smart and prudent, and acts valiantly. More importantly, for some reason, her words and deeds faintly resemble the shadow of a young master.

I can't help but think of my favorite story when I was a child listening to books and singing songs in a brothel.

"Female Champion".

She is like a female champion who came out of a storybook, which is hard to hate.

After "He Youwei" left, I often thought of her.

In the past, I always felt that as long as I knew how to read, read books, and soaked in the academy like this, one day I would have the bookish atmosphere I like.

But whenever I think back to her appearance, I always feel that even if I study for ten years, I can't learn her words and deeds.

I also asked the young master about her identity, but the young master didn't tell me.

"Some things, it's a blessing not to know." After the young master finished speaking, he took a sip of tea.

When he put down the teacup, a natural but imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

I was stunned.

Once upon a time, I've seen that same smile on another person's face.

Butterfly's man also showed such a smile when he secretly looked at her.

The kind of admiration and joy that filled her eyes when she thought of her, and the love that couldn't even hide the smile at the corner of her mouth.

It turned out that the Shaodong family would also have such an expression.

That kind of smile appeared on his always serious face, like a flash in the pan, clear and dazzling, indescribable.

I suddenly understood a truth.

There has never been a person who is as cold as ice in the world. The so-called cold as ice is just because the other party is not the person in his heart.

It was as if my heart had been pricked by a very thin needle, and I felt an indescribable pain.I blurted out and asked, "The Young Master's family is so special to her, do they like her?"

The Shaodong family suddenly took a sip of tea, raised his eyes and looked at me in disbelief, then smiled hastily and said, "How is that possible?"

He avoided my eyes, as if thinking of something.The smile on his face quickly turned into panic and bewilderment, like a weak cover.

The flustered expression of the young master made me realize that he probably didn't know that He Youwei was a girl.

I hesitated and didn't tell him.

Twice after that, I found that the Shaodong family was always alone in a daze, and my sixth sense told me that he was thinking about He Youwei.

It's really hard to imagine how a rigid and polite person like him would feel if he realizes that he likes a man.

I once wondered whether to hint to him that He Youwei is actually a woman.

But finally gave up.

It was a matter between the two of them. I don't know He Youwei's true identity, so it's better not to interrupt rashly.What's more, I made a solemn oath not to reveal He Youwei's identity as a woman.
-
On February [-]th, Chunwei released the list, and I went to see the list with Qin Yang.

There wasn't a single name on the list that I was familiar with.

I read it carefully several times, and there was no Lin Yuxiu, no Guan Shengjie, and no He Youwei.

"There must be something tricky in this spring! Don't tell me, this Zhuang Xiaojin doesn't even know history theory well. If he really wins the top scorer based on his ability, I'm willing to take off his boots and study ink for him!"

Such voices can be heard endlessly.

For two consecutive days, people came and went in Wenxin Hall, most of them were candidates who failed the exams. They gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

I paid attention to the crowd, but I didn't find He Youwei.

I'm a little worried.

She disguised herself as a man to participate in the test, presumably she had her own considerations.Now that I have failed the ranking, I don't know if I will be overwhelmed.

When I was worried, He Youwei appeared outside Wenxintang.

She looked uneasy.

I comforted her a few words, and left her to eat, thinking that there are still many students who failed the exam in Wenxin Hall, and being with them, she might be able to resolve the depression in her heart.

However, I was wrong.

It wasn't until she put the bottle of poison and Zhen Guo Yuxi in front of me that I suddenly realized.

She didn't come here today to express her feelings, she came to find me.

The first thought that came to my mind was that I was going to die.

The emperor is a woman.Also known to me.Is it possible to survive?

The second thought was, fortunately, he didn't tell the Young Master that she was a woman.

After thinking about it, a third thought came to mind, it turned out that the person the Young Master likes is the emperor.

I can't help but think of the recent Shaodong's family always talking about the emperor with high spirits, praising the emperor's hard work and determination after taking charge of the government.

In the past, I always thought it was the affection of the Shaodong family towards the emperor, but now that I think about it, I feel that everything is different.

The emperor gave me two choices.

In fact, there is only one choice, she wants me to enter the palace with her and keep my oath.

I looked at the bottle of poison, and remembered that the Shaodong family once said that the emperor "has always been benevolent."

The Young Master was right.

I'm still alive is the best proof.

While I am grateful for the emperor's benevolence, I am also a little anxious and worried for her.

It's no wonder that she will be pushed aside by powerful officials. She looks like a gentle sheep breaking into a world full of wolves. How can she deal with those bad guys?
But soon, I found out that I was wrong.

When I saw the emperor throwing a knife and killing me to save me, I was so frightened that I even forgot to breathe.

Because she looks really desperate.

Her eyes were full of determination to die.

Under the bright moonlight, I suddenly remembered the words that the butterfly said to me that I have never understood——

"If one day you meet a person who is not afraid of life and death for you, you will understand."

I suddenly understood what kind of state of mind the butterfly said to me.

An impulsive state of mind that wants to commit to life.

I just didn't expect that for the first time in my life, I would meet someone who worked hard for me, neither my parents, nor my elder brother, nor even my sweetheart, but a woman, a woman who was in the top ninety-five ranks.

Obviously for her, my death is the best choice and absolute safety.

She chose to risk her life to save me.

The emperor lost his temper.

This is the first time I've seen her angry.

That's when I realized how wrong I was.

This is not the look a sheep should have.

She is only 16 years old, but people always forget that she is only 16 years old.She is a woman, but people always forget that she is a woman.

The decisive royal air in her body can only make people realize that she is an emperor.

I suddenly understood why the Shaodong family didn't find out that she was a woman.

I also understand why Young Master likes her.

Because I also like her very much.
