Reborn, seduced the prince and killed his wife to become his favorite concubine

The bamboo hat he was wearing was also taken off.

Those who come to drink tea wear hats and do not show their faces at the tea table, which means they do not understand the tea ceremony and etiquette.

"This is my little daughter, and this is General Zhao's daughter..."

After taking off the hat, Zhao Rui looked at Li Yan openly with a smile on her face.

Li Yan, on the other hand, was self-disciplined and polite, he did not look sideways, and was full of righteousness. He just took a few glances.

But Shen Zhishu could see clearly that he didn't even look at her for long.

But Du Sheng stared at her, lost in thought for a moment, and when he came to his senses, he quickly dodged away, trying to cover up his embarrassment by drinking tea.

That uneasy and frightened look really made people want to laugh.

"How come my little girl is a monster that scares you like this?"

Shen Wang got angry for no reason.

It turns out that among all his disciples, he was the one who was most optimistic about Du Sheng.

But now I feel that he is really bad and shameful.

"Reporting to Lord Shen, the young lady is gentle and elegant, with a beautiful appearance. I... I have never seen such a beautiful woman before, and I lost my mind for a moment. It's all my fault. I overstepped the line. Please forgive me, Lord and the young lady."

Watching a woman lose her mind is definitely not what a gentleman does.

Du Sheng was secretly annoyed, but his face still blushed because he was sitting next to Shen Zhishu.

"If she's pretty, just look at her openly. What's the point of talking about rules? Does our dynasty's etiquette say that looking at a beautiful woman is against the law?"

Zhao Rui also wanted to laugh when she saw Du Caizi's reckless look.

As expected, Li Yan, whom she had chosen, was calm and gentlemanly, and did not lose his composure at all.

"Mr. Li, the poem you wrote yesterday was quite good..."

She was frank and generous with her praise, and she could already recite the poem.

Immediately, the two of them started chatting as if no one was around.

"Miss Shen, this is new tea that arrived today. It is freshly picked from the tea mountain. Please try it."

Du Sheng's hands were trembling slightly, and his eyes and heart were filled with the beautiful woman in front of him, who could not be described in poetry or songs.

Shen Wang frowned as he watched his student trying to show his courtesy, feeling a little annoyed.

But today it was his daughter who made the decision, and within the legal context, he could only watch.

Shen Zhishu did not embarrass the other party. After thanking him, he took a sip.

"This tea is pure and sweet, with a strong aroma, and the tea leaves are plump and bright green. It is really a good tea."

Then he took another sip and seemed to like it.

Just this small action made Du Sheng's heart beat faster.

"Mr. Du, I heard that you are very talented and learned. You are my father's disciple. My father also praises you very much. I wonder if you are preparing for the imperial examination this year?"

Shen Zhishu's faint smile, coupled with her beautiful face, can make people intoxicated.

"Yes, yes. I will definitely go all out this year."

"Then are you sure you will pass the exam?"

Du Sheng was stunned by the question, and subconsciously wanted to show off in front of the beauty. He was 70% sure in his heart, but there were too many variables in the imperial examination. If he made such a boast, how could he meet Miss Shen if he failed one day?

"Do your best and obey fate."

"Look at what bullshit you're talking about. You have to believe that 'man can conquer nature'. If you want to do something, you should do your best and achieve it no matter what. Without firm belief, how can you achieve anything?"

Du Sheng was just being modest, but Shen Wang couldn't stand it.

When did his disciples become so useless?

"I will follow your instructions, but there are too many variables in the imperial examination, and it is definitely not something that can be decided by a student's perseverance alone."

Shen Wang rolled his eyes when he heard this. What kind of bullshit is this?

"Father, Master Du is a humble person with a stable and mature mind. I think this kind of character is rare."

Shen Zhishu smiled faintly and spoke for him.

When Du Sheng turned around, he was met with her gentle smile, as if the tea he had just drunk was about to bloom.

"Master Du is so calm, I guess his family must have brought him up very well."

Shen Zhishu asked again.

Shen Wang couldn't help but frown. Was he trying to find out about the family? Did his daughter like this poor boy?

Zhao Rui, who was standing by, was also stunned when she heard this.

What is Shu'er doing? Is he also like her, falling in love with a scholar?

"I dare not lie to you, young lady. I lost my parents when I was young, and it was my brother who raised me. Now there are only my brother and I at home. If I can achieve something this time, my greatest wish is to find a marriage for my brother."

Du Sheng immediately became serious, and spoke of this with more determination than he did about the imperial examination.

"Where does Mr. Du live?"

Shen Zhishu continued to inquire about his affairs without leaving any trace.

But only Du Sheng didn't hear it, and the others looked at each other in confusion.

Shen Wang also had a gloomy face, and suddenly felt that his daughter's search for a husband was a bit hasty.

But no one spoke until they had chatted for a while and finished their tea.

Shen Wang then found an excuse and sent the two away.

How could Zhao Rui bear to see Li Yan leave like this, so she made the excuse that she wanted to go home and left in a hurry.

But Shen Zhishu knew that she was going to chase someone.

Shen Wang went upstairs again, and Shen Zhishu had already brewed a new pot of tea.

"Shu'er, I'm not saying anything bad about you. We've only met twice, and you..."

"My daughter thinks Mr. Du is very good. His family is simple, with only one eldest brother. If my daughter marries him, she won't be bullied by her mother-in-law and can manage the household herself, which is very easy."

Shen Zhishu looked very serious, as if she was really going to marry him.

Shen Wang was stunned. Had his daughter actually thought so far?

"Aren't you afraid that he...he...can't pass the imperial examination, and will just be a poor scholar."

"The person chosen by father must have good character. And regarding the poem yesterday, I think he is the best. It would be best if he can pass the imperial examination. But if he fails, I think with father's connections, it would be good to let him become a teacher in the academy."

Have you even considered your future livelihood?

"With the current conditions of the Shen family, it won't be a problem to support you."

Shen Wang didn't know what to say for a moment.

I thought my daughter was slow to make sense, but now she has chosen a husband for herself so quickly?

He knows his disciples well, and they are not beyond his control, which is not bad.

"Did father agree?"

Shen Zhishu's face lit up with joy, and he did not try to hide his good mood.

Then, we will go to propose marriage tomorrow and find a date to get engaged as soon as possible. It would be best if everyone in the city knows about it, especially the King of Qin, so that he can't hide away...

"Master Shen."

Shen Wang was about to speak when someone downstairs suddenly interrupted him.

"So it's really you, sir. I'm Zhang Feng, the owner of Yongqing Pawnshop. Last month, our shop..."

A middle-aged man dressed as a businessman suddenly ran up, talking rapidly, and invited Shen Wang to go downstairs for tea.

But Shen Wang was worried about his daughter, and when he was about to refuse, Shen Zhishu had already put on his hat again.
