Quick Wear: The saints are too miserable, the host will never be soft-hearted

Benjamin and Ziwei stepped forward to comfort Erkang, who looked unhappy.

Ertai sighed silently, stood up, and forced a smile on his delicate face, "Xiaoyanzi, I will teach you how to copy."

If he works in the first half of the night, he will have a reason to rest in the second half.

The emperor gave her ten days. Under the urging of the three guards, Xiaoyanzi worked hard on calligraphy all night long. Lu Yi arranged for someone to deliver mung bean soup twice. After showing some simple concern, he went about his own business.

At Yonghe Palace, Benjamin walked into the study room carrying a pot, a smile on his face, and said enthusiastically, "Yongqi, I'm here to bring you some chocolate!"

Lu Yi looked at the fragrant liquid he poured out from the pot, picked up the cup and tasted it carefully.

"Benjamin, you came at the right time. I'm running out of chocolate and was just about to ask you for some."

"That's easy. I'll have the eunuch bring it to you right away." Benjamin poured himself a cup as well. Seeing Lu Yi's fondness for chocolate, he stroked the cup and said hesitantly, "Yongqi, I actually have a question that's been on my mind."

"Ask." Lu Yi drank chocolate and guessed what Benjamin was going to say after taking a look at him.

"Then I'll just ask directly."

"Yongqi, you're so devoted to Xiaoyanzi that even a foreigner like me can see it. I want to know, are you clear about your feelings for Xiaoyanzi?"

Lu Yi looked at Benjamin with a serious face and burst out laughing.

"Yongqi, what are you laughing at? Is what I said funny?" Benjamin touched his head, thinking that he had said something ambiguous again.

Lu Yi suppressed his laughter and shook his head, saying, "Benjamin, what you said is too weird. Xiaoyanzi and I are brother and sister. What are you thinking?"

Benjamin stood up from the stool anxiously, "But you... you and her are not really brother and sister!"

Lu Yi said casually: "So what? It doesn't affect me treating her as my sister. And Benjamin, walls have ears, so you better be careful."

Benjamin sat back on the stool, picked up the cup and drank the chocolate in one gulp.

"Yongqi, I don't think so. Your actions have proven that you don't regard Xiaoyanzi as a simple sister. Don't even deceive yourself."

Lu Yi spread his hands and said firmly: "No, Benjamin, you misunderstood. My feelings for Xiaoyanzi are definitely not what you think. I can assure you."

What she said came from her heart, but no matter how sure she was, others would just think she was denying it.

For example, Benjamin in front of us.

"Yongqi, you will regret this... Since you are so determined, then I... I actually have a crush on Xiaoyanzi."

Benjamin and Lu Yi looked at each other, and instantly the other understood what he meant. He was actually still testing the waters. If his good brother Yongqi fell in love with the same girl as him, he would be willing to give in...

Lu Yi sipped the chocolate and smiled, "You are truly kind to others, and of course others can feel it. Benjamin, I support you and wish you all the best."

Benjamin still had some concerns. "Yongqi, that's great! I hope you can remember our conversation today."

Lu Yi tilted his head, "Of course."

As she lowered her head to take a sip of chocolate, the person in front of her disappeared. She looked at the half-empty pot of chocolate in front of her and shouted, "Benjamin, you forgot to take the pot!"

Benjamin's voice came faintly from outside the door, "I leave it to you."

The day before the inspection was due, Ziwei looked at Xiaoyanzi, who had thrown her brush in a fit of rage, and said anxiously, "Xiaoyanzi, can you please be more sensible? The Emperor is going to inspect you tomorrow, and you can only recite two lines of poetry. How can you possibly pass?"

"At worst, I won't go! Ziwei, this poem is so hard to memorize. My hands are sore from copying it. This is too much for me!"

Xiaoyanzi was angry. She turned her back and didn't look at anyone. She said she would not memorize or copy anything and just quit the job.

Lu Yi had just arrived at Shufangzhai and saw this scene. He first drank a sip of the tea brought by Mingyue, moistened his throat and was about to coax people, when he heard hurried footsteps outside the door.

Ziwei asked for help: "Yongqi, Erkang, you two should also try to persuade Xiaoyanzi. She is throwing a tantrum and refuses to recite poetry no matter what."

"She refused to cooperate at all and kept interrupting me. When the ten days were up, I couldn't get past the Emperor at all, and I couldn't go on tour at all! So when will I be able to recognize my biological father?"

No matter how understanding Ziwei is, she can't teach a little Yanzi like this. She really has no other choice!

Erkang was overwhelmed. Thinking about the news he had heard, he shouted, "Xiaoyanzi, can you understand? It's such a critical moment and you're still making a fuss! Did you know that Qing'er will also be going on this tour?"

After being scolded, Xiaoyanzi was quiet for two seconds, then she muttered, "What's the big deal about sunshine, rain, and wind? Whether she goes or not is none of my business."

"The Empress Dowager intends to choose a husband for Qing'er between me and the Fifth Prince. Qing'er is also going on this tour because she wants her to see clearly her own heart and decide which one she prefers."

Erkang's chest heaved with anger. He looked at Xiaoyanzi and said, "Do you understand what I'm saying?"

Even though Xiaoyanzi was immersed in her temper, she subconsciously looked at Ziwei and asked with concern, "Ziwei, if Qing'er chooses Erkang, then...what will you do? You've already pledged your lives to each other, how can Qing'er steal your husband away?!"

"I don't know. My head is a mess right now. Don't ask me." Ziwei covered her ears helplessly.

Erkang gasped and punched the wall, saying in frustration, "If I had known earlier, I would have behaved more calmly in front of her, and I wouldn't be facing this dilemma now."

Lu Yi said: "Erkang, don't be too negative. Qing'er didn't say that she was attracted to you."

Erkang was slightly stunned. He looked at Lu Yi and suddenly an idea flashed through his mind. Before it came out, he looked at Xiaoyanzi again and held back from saying it.

"Alright, both of you, stop arguing. Aren't we talking about reciting poems? Can't I recite them? Ziwei, come over and watch me recite the poem. Don't be sad anymore, okay?"

Xiaoyanzi patted her chest and said with a happy look on her face.

Xiaoyanzi couldn't bear to see Ziwei's heartbroken look, so she actually recited the poem in front of the emperor.

Ziwei's attention shifted from Erkang to the emperor, and she no longer had a sad face during her tours.

Xiaoyanzi felt relieved and happily enjoyed the scenery along the road, bringing joy to the emperor and others.

After being sent off by the people of Plum Blossom Town with drums, they arrived at Yuelao Town. Erkang took the opportunity to pull Lu Yi aside and whispered, "Yongqi, I have something to tell you."

"What's the matter? Tell me quickly. Otherwise, look at the little swallow over there. If you delay any longer, she will tie a hundred red strings on us before she stops."
