After the divorce, the princess was forced to raise a sickly villain

It is not yet known whether Yu Qiubai has lingering fears for Her Majesty the Queen, but Qi Yue is definitely avoiding Zhong Jin.

When she saw Zhong Jin again, Qi Yue frowned instantly and almost wanted to beat him out with a broom.

"Why are Master Shen here again?" Qi Yue was really annoyed, "Is the court official sitting around with nothing to do all day?"

As if he didn't notice her impatience at all, Zhong Zhongjin smiled good-naturedly: "I'm here to say congratulations when I learned that Mr. Qi was named on the gold medal list."

"If Master Shen can stay away from the students, the students will be more grateful to you." Qi Yue frowned, "During this period, Master Shen often comes to the students, so that some people have begun to doubt the students' academic level and whether the students are cheating. Mr. Shen has single-handedly allowed students to be questioned for ten years, but have you ever thought about how the students feel? "

"Young master Qi, you are wrong." Zhong Jin leaned against the doorframe with a serious expression, "Being questioned is a situation that everyone has to face, whether it is studying or being an official, no one can have a smooth life. , recognized by everyone.”

Qiyue frowned: "Master Shen, are you making an excuse for your behavior?"

"Of course not." Zhong Zhongjin smiled lightly, "I'm just telling you that nothing is always smooth sailing for people. They always have to face some right and wrong. Today, your knowledge is questioned, and your ability or conduct will be questioned in the future. When you become a big official, , maybe your behavior is questioned, your loyalty is questioned... Faced with these situations, will you choose to be yourself calmly, or will you explain to everyone who you are, or will you think about it all day long and give up on yourself? "

Qiyue looked at him silently, not knowing how to refute.

As expected, people in official circles are very talkative, and she is no match.

"Master Qi, does he know what I used to do?"

before?

Qi Yue was stunned: "Master Shen, wasn't he a scholar before?"

"It's true to study, but before I entered the officialdom, I was the Queen's servant before she ascended the throne." Zhong Jin's voice was leisurely, and his expression was calm and calm. "To this day, some people still think that I am relying on Her Majesty the Queen’s favor.”

Qiyue was silent: "Isn't it?"

"Of course not." Zhong Jin clicked his tongue, "Her Majesty the Queen is a rare and dedicated woman. She only likes the current imperial husband. How can Shen be so virtuous that the Queen can favor her?"

"Her Majesty the Queen only appointed an imperial husband after she ascended the throne." Qiyue said, "Maybe she doted on you before she ascended the throne. After she ascended the throne, she fell in love with the imperial husband. In order to make up for you, I gave you an official position."

"Well, this kind of analysis makes sense." Zhong Zhongjin nodded, "It's just a presumption that the Queen is a crime of disrespect and will be beheaded."

Qiyue: "..."

"But as long as you don't tell me, and I don't tell you, Her Majesty the Queen won't know that you are making assumptions about the Holy Will behind your back." He said with a smile on his face, "Can't you invite me in to sit down?"

cannot.

Qiyue wanted to throw these two words to him forcefully, but thinking that he might hold her secret in his hand, she hesitated for a moment and took a step back: "Master Shen, please come in."

"Thank you."

Zhong Zhongjin walked in and looked at the place where she lived, "Can you tell me why you need to take the exam?"

"Why is it necessary to take the exam for merit?" Qi Yue was surprised by his question, "Don't scholars just want to stand out and honor their ancestors?"

"Well, you're right." Zhong Jin tilted his head to look at him, with a teasing smile in his eyes, "But that's what ordinary scholars think. Your thoughts should be different from others."

Qi Yue was wary: "Why is it different?"

Zhong Jin pondered for a moment and considered a more euphemistic way of saying: "What is the difference between the court and the boudoir?"

Qiyue's face suddenly changed: "What do you mean?"

"Don't be nervous." Zhong Zhongjin smiled lightly, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

His smile was obviously gentle and kind, but looking at Qi Yue's eyes at this moment, it was undoubtedly the smile of a poisonous snake, full of danger.

She was so nervous that her breathing was a little rough, and she couldn't help but take two steps back: "Master Shen may have heard some rumors..."

"No." Zhong Jin shook his head, "There are no rumors outside."

Qi Yue's heart was beating hard, but she could only suppress her uneasiness: "That's what Mr. Shen has misunderstood..."

"My Lord, I have not misunderstood anything." Zhong Zhongjin interrupted her and walked towards her slowly, "Young Master Qi has already won the gold medal in high school, which is a gratifying thing, but if Her Majesty the Queen knows at this time that Young Master Qi is on the gold medal list, I'm afraid that not only will there be no chance of success and fame, but the whole Qi family will also be implicated in being questioned——"

"What do you want?" Qi Yue looked at him coldly, the coldness seeping out of her eyes, like a sharp sword, "You knew it a long time ago? Did you wait until this moment to threaten me on purpose? What exactly do you want to do?"

Zhong Jin shook his head: "Master Qi misunderstood me——"

"What misunderstanding? Stop pretending to be a good person here! You are simply a scheming old fox! You have sinister intentions, scheming, cunning, dirty, and absolutely disgusting!"

Zhong Jin fell strangely silent and touched her nose. He didn't expect her to scold people so neatly.

Qiyue's face was as dark as water, but her heart was far less tough than she appeared on the surface. She already regretted taking the exam. If she had known that there were so many scheming people in the imperial capital, she would rather stay in Puhe and be a concubine.

But what's the use of regret?

At this point, she was in a dilemma.

Zhong Zhongjin sighed: "Okay, it's my fault, it's my fault. I shouldn't try to hide it for you. I should go directly to expose you in front of His Majesty. If the imperial army comes to take someone directly, I probably won't. He will be called a treacherous villain... Alas, it’s hard for good people these days.”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Qiyue's expression changed: "Stop!"

"Master Qi's tone is really strong." Zhong Zhongjin turned to look at her and smiled helplessly, "This is the first time I have dared to be so rude to a court official."

Qi Yue's face turned green and white, and she was obviously very angry. She believed that he was a shameless villain, but now that her life was at stake, she really didn't have the backbone to continue to be tough with him.

"Master Shen, please stay." She softened her tone and had to swallow her anger, "It was the student who was not good. He should not have been disrespectful to you. I hope that you, your master, will be generous enough to forgive the student's rudeness."

Zhong Zhongjin secretly smiled in his heart and said sternly: "I was at fault first. I found something wrong. I should report it to Her Majesty the Queen in time, instead of approaching Mr. Qi and trying to figure out Mr. Qi's difficulties——"

"The student does have difficulties." Qi Yue quickly hit the snake and put it on the stick, "I hope Master Shen will be considerate."
