Chapter 21 Pretending to be a Good Guy

Chapter 21 Pretending to be a Good Guy

"Ah-"

On the bustling and bustling streets of Kyoto, a low-key but exquisite carriage rolled forward, and a loud sneezing sound attracted the attention of the people on both sides.

But when they saw the flag of Suzaku bathing in flames hanging on the corner of the car, they were so frightened that they withdrew their peeping eyes.

Inside the carriage, a childish and concerned voice sounded: "Mother, are you alright?"

Shen Ruo rubbed her red nose, shook her head, her voice was a little nasal, which diluted her cold voice a bit, and made her look a little lazy and hoarse: "I'm fine, don't worry."

At this time, a cup of hot tea was handed to her with steaming white air, she turned her head to look, and there was someone's black eyes with a narrow smile in the steam: "This is ginger tea, it's good for cold, drink it. "

When Shen Ruo heard this, she became angry. It was not all his fault that she became like this. Why are you pretending to be a good person now?
Two icy cold gazes that could kill people pierced, Xiao Chen still did not change his face, and even forcefully stuffed the white porcelain cup in Shen Ruo's hand, and then said unhurriedly: "Not yet. They are all beloved wives, you have to accept those two beauties, and as a husband, you have no choice but to love you day and night, to warn them not to have bad intentions."

Is this still her fault?Shen Ruo was so angry that the hand holding the cup started to shake, if she didn't have the last bit of reason left, she almost poured the ginger tea in the cup on Xiao Chen's head.

It's just that the more angry she was, the deeper the corner of Xiao Chen's mouth curved: "Okay, don't be angry, the child is watching."

Hearing this, Shen Ruo took advantage of the situation to glance at Lin'er. The little stone who was allowed to enter the carriage together had already covered Lin'er's ears at some point. After reading their conversation just now, something strange came to mind.

"..." Shen Ruo was silent for a while, and blamed Xiao Chen for all the crimes.

At this time, Xiao Chen suddenly leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Don't be angry, when I go back today, I'll add another soft couch, how about it?"

The man's aggressive breath approached, making Shen Ruo twitch her ear tips uncomfortably, she frowned, and pushed Xiao Chen: "Okay, just speak carefully, don't get so close."

Xiao Chen looked around her suspiciously, making sure that she was no longer angry, then sat up straight again, picked up the pot, poured another cup of ginger tea into the cup she had finished drinking, and said in a much softer voice: "It's not far from the academy. For more than half an hour, if you are sleepy, you can rely on me to rest for a while."

Shen Ruo glanced at him, drank the tea again, put down the cup, leaned his head against the wall of the carriage, and began to close his eyes to rest.

"Mother..." Lin'er was worried that she would catch a cold, just as he spoke, Xiao Chen stopped him, and he took out the prepared thin blanket from the secret compartment and covered her.

His quiet eyes fell on that pretty and delicate face, and there was obvious black and blue under the eyelids, which was obviously caused by not sleeping well in recent days.

It has been almost two months since the imperial concubine sent her away, and he and Shen Ruo have also "sexed" for two months, but they are not as ambiguous as outsiders think.

The two of them just slept on the bed, and the other leaned against the corner, so he was naturally the one on the bed.

"..."

Xiao Chen's eyes darkened, if Shen Ruo subdued him, how could he make things difficult for her, but she has such a stubborn temper, in the end, it was he who gave in first.

The carriage stopped a mile away from the academy, and there were already many carriages parked here and there, all of which were luxuriously and exquisitely decorated, either rich or expensive.

Naturally, these people also recognized the Suzaku flag on the carriage, and they all looked sideways and started talking.

"That's His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince who returned to Beijing a while ago?"

"Now I'm going to be called His Royal Highness King Jing. He has put down the barbarians in the north, and he is known as the Iron-Blooded God of War!"

"Then why did he come here?"

"Hey, don't you know? The empress gave him a marriage, and it's not the second lady, but..."

Shen Ruo, who was still a little unwell, got out of the carriage first, and when all the noisy noises fell silent, all kinds of eyes immediately came to him, curious, contemptuous, sarcastic...

But soon, the voices of discussion resumed. They thought they were quiet, but they seemed to wish everyone could hear: "I didn't expect that the dignified No. [-] Academy of Xiao Country would now be willing to degenerate, and even a wild species could enter. Let's not send our children to the academy, be careful not to get infected, and it will harm the children instead."

Shen Ruo's eyes instantly condensed into ice. It can be said that she is not, but she is not allowed to say her child!

The plain hands under the wide sleeves flipped and held a long-necked porcelain bottle out of thin air. She was just about to teach these gossipers a lesson, but Xiao Chen at the side silently hugged Lin'er with one hand, and with the other Take her by the hand.

"The master of the academy is punctual at the very least. The registration time is only Chenshi and Chenshi. Let's go there quickly."

Only then did everyone realize that this couple, who had been widely circulated as a joke in the Beijing circle, was so loving, and even the oil bottle... Xiao Shizi was treated as his own by King Jing and sent him to the academy in person.

Since King Jing returned to Beijing after winning the battle, he has been highly valued by the emperor. He was not only named king, but also served as the commander of the Kyoto Guard. In just half a year, many corrupt officials were arrested.

That iron-blooded aura made many people even more frightened, and now they actually spoke ill of his concubine and son in front of him... He wouldn't take revenge on their lord, would he?
Regardless of how fearful the ladies in the deep pavilion were, Shen Ruo and his party had already arrived at the gate of the academy.

The breeze is clear, the calligraphy and ink are fragrant, and a tall statue of Confucius stands in front of Baiyu Square, majestic and solemn.

When countless scholars came here, they couldn't help nodding their heads and lowering their eyebrows, concentrating on their words. Xiao Chen also put down Lin'er on his arms, and took the child to the teacher in charge of the examination, who had placed three sandalwood tables in front of the statue of Confucius.

Sitting in the middle is a gentle middle-aged man, with a refined temperament, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.

He picked up a pen: "Name?"

Lin'er obediently reported her name, and the man asked again, "Age?"

"Six years old."

"Six years old?" The teacher opened his eyes slightly in surprise. Ordinary people don't enter school until they are eight or nine years old. After all, they are all famous people here, and the content they teach is quite difficult. Can't understand.

He solemnly put down his pen, and he didn't mean to judge people by appearances, but asked gently: "Then I'll test you, if you can't, don't be afraid, just say you can't."

Lin'er nodded cutely and cutely, but mocking voices secretly sounded around her. This is a real skill, but it can't be pretended by her father.

The master stroked his beard and pondered for a moment, then said: "Then you memorize the Three Character Classic."

When Lin'er heard this, the nervous expression was still on his face, and he swept it away, and with his hands behind his back, he said loudly: "At the beginning of human beings, nature is kind..."

Unexpectedly, he really finished memorizing it all. The master was shocked. He took a more difficult test of "University", and Lin'er also finished memorizing it eloquently.

In the end, Lin'er raised her small chin, said proudly but tried not to show it: "I've memorized all the Four Books and Five Classics, Master, just ask if you have anything."

The master laughed twice: "No need, I believe you. This is the jade card of the academy disciples. You will use this to enter and leave the academy in the future. Now go in and see where you will study in the future."

Lin'er happily ran towards her mother with the jade card in her arms, but bumped into a small solid figure on the way. The two fell together, but the man shouted first: "Auntie! Auntie! Someone is bullying me!"
