Quick Wear: Crazy Female Supporting Role She is Bai Yueguang
Chapter 153 Black Lotus Tears the Cannon Fodder Script (24)
An elder sister is like a mother. Shi Qing considered everything carefully. Shi Xiaoyun listened very carefully and did not dare to be negligent.
His current situation is inseparable from Shi Qing's training. At least whatever he wants to do in the future will depend on his own abilities.
"The academy is huge, but the people who come here are all mixed. If you can't tell friend from foe, you can only choose the one that's most beneficial to you. Is that clear?"
Shi Xiaoyun nodded repeatedly. Thinking of the rumors in the capital during this period, he hurriedly said to Shi Qing.
"Sister, I will definitely try my best in this exam and will never let you become a laughing stock. I will become your living signboard."

After saying this, Shi Xiaoyun lit a lamp and read very hard at night.
Shi Qing stayed in Bailu Academy for three days, but finally had to leave because the academy was about to have a major exam, so he took Chunlin with him and left the academy.
After returning to the Marquis' Mansion, Shi Qing had not yet had time to drink a sip of tea when a dark shadow passed by the window. Shi Qing raised his eyebrows and said.
"Maple Hideaway? Come in."
Feng Yin stepped into the room, but was a little distance away from Shi Qing. He raised his eyes and said, "You sent a pigeon to ask me to keep an eye on the Shi family, and now I have news."
Shi Qing poured a cup of tea and said softly, "If you have something to say, please speak slowly."
Feng Yin took a sip of tea and said slowly, "Three days later, King Xiaoyao will have a large batch of goods to trade at the dock in the north of the city.
I've secretly inspected the goods, and besides the salt, there are also weapons. They are all genuine goods, forged in a village on the outskirts of the city. I've secretly sent someone to calm the village leader. What are you going to do?"
Ever since Shi Qing knew the purpose of King Xiaoyao approaching the Shi family, he began to plan what happened today. He did not act rashly at that time just to let them relax their vigilance.
Now, it is time to close the net. Shi Jianye wants to accumulate wealth by selling salt, and he has a lot of thoughts about it, not to mention getting promoted and making money.
These are things he shouldn't have gotten in his life.
Just as the original owner had never received fatherly love in his life, his father was unkind and he was abandoned.
"I received the message. Go to Bailu Academy in the next two days and protect someone for me. My younger brother, Shi Xiaoyun."
Feng Yin nodded and looked at Shi Qing, who seemed to want to say something but hesitated. In the end, he did not say it directly and gradually hid what he wanted to say.
"okay, I get it."
After saying that, Feng Yin stood up and prepared to leave.
Shi Qing called him over and handed him the snacks he had bought on the table. "Try it. These snacks are made by a famous pastry shop in the capital. They are quite delicious."
A look of helplessness flashed across Feng Yin's handsome face. He stroked his forehead and said helplessly.
"Miss Shi, assassins don't eat sweets."
Shi Qing picked up the cake and stuffed it into Feng Yin's hand. "Life is not boring, just like cakes, soft, glutinous and sweet. And all the dishes in the world are unique."
"Yes, Miss."
Feng Yin was stunned for a moment, took the pastry with an unnatural expression, and left the Marquis' Mansion with light steps.
The autumn examination is about to begin, and Shi Luoyi is very nervous. It is not that she is going to take the exam, but that King Xiaoyao's adopted son Wen Liang will also take the exam, and it is very likely that he will often go in and out of the court in the future.
Hearing that Shi Qing was also busy with Shi Xiaoyun's affairs, Shi Luoyi secretly competed with Shi Qing and invited ministers from the Imperial College to give Wen Liang extra lessons.
Sometimes, she even racked her brains to search for everything related to modern Chinese studies. Although she graduated from university, she only had a third-degree degree and had long forgotten everything related to Chinese studies.
When Shi Luoyi's serious method didn't work, she started to have evil thoughts. She thought that if she could buy the test questions in advance, Wen Liang might have a better chance of passing the autumn test.
However, when she told her thoughts to King Xiaoyao, he scolded her and said that she was too soft-hearted and did not know the rules.
"How can a woman like you guess what's going on in the court? If the exam questions are leaked, the emperor will definitely hold me accountable. What should I do then? Why take such a risk? I don't lack this little influence."
King Xiaoyao was unwilling to take risks, but Roy felt that many things can only be won by taking risks.
If he could help Wenliang win the first place in the autumn examination, then perhaps he could become the prince's imperial tutor.
King Xiaoyao felt that Shi Luoyi was more and more vulgar and shallow. He used to think she was perfect, but now he was particularly disgusted with her, and he had also heard some rumors.
Shi Luoyi had already been promised to someone else. She had an affair with a commoner and finally committed suicide by jumping into the river on her way to get married. That's when she met her own boyfriend.
Although the household registration documents had not been changed, King Xiaoyao still felt uneasy. He had already obtained Shi Luoyi, but he did not cherish her as much as he did at the beginning.
"But my lord, wealth and honor are achieved through risk. Don't you value Wen Liang?"
King Xiaoyao was too lazy to waste time talking to Shi Luoyi, so he just sent her away and spoke in a cold voice.
"If you have a way, go ahead and do it, but don't involve Xiaoyao Palace. Otherwise, no matter how much I love you, I will never allow you to do so."
Suddenly, a faint fragrance ignited in the room. King Xiaoyao's eyes suddenly became blurred. He hugged the woman beside him tightly, sniffed her scent, raised his eyebrows and said.
"You smell so good."
Shi Luoyi took off his outer shirt, leaving only thin clothes underneath. King Xiaoyao looked deep in the eyes as he carried Shi Luoyi towards the bed.
After a while, an unbearable sound was heard from the room. The maids seemed to be accustomed to it and quickly retreated.
When Shi Luoyi woke up, King Xiaoyao had already left and Fu'er was not there to serve him. She said with a cold face and unhappily.
"Fuer, where are you?"
When Fu'er heard Shi Luoyi's voice, she hurried out to serve, but her expression was a little unnatural, as if she was hiding something. She has always been cautious, but this time she could not tolerate any grain of sand in her eyes.
"Greetings, Princess. I have something to report to you."
Fu'er's eyes were evasive, which didn't seem to be a good thing. Shi Luoyi suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and said.
"Don't try to hide anything in front of this princess. Tell the truth."
Fu'er felt relieved and said slowly while looking at Shi Luoyi in front of her.
"Princess, Concubine Zhou and Concubine Zhang in the prince's room are pregnant. This matter is very secret. If I hadn't happened to see them asking for a doctor, I wouldn't have noticed it."
Shi Luoyi stroked her forehead and became more and more restless and irritable. Whatever she was worried about came true.
Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhang were both in their twenties and became pregnant so easily, while she had sex with Prince Xiaoyao several times but still failed to conceive.
She even wondered if there was something wrong with her body, otherwise how could this happen?
Shi Luoyi stroked her belly. Her child hadn't been born yet, so the women in the backyard couldn't even think of getting pregnant. Anyone who dared to compete with her for favor would die...
"Fu'er, you should know that the prince and I are the only two masters in the palace. It's just that these two children were unlucky and entered the wrong womb. Find a reason to dispose of the children. Remember to do it beautifully and don't let the prince find out."
Fu'er was shocked when she heard this. Although she knew that the princess was not a good person, she was terrified that she wanted to take four lives so casually.
However, Shi Luoyi's words were orders to her, and she said them respectfully.
"Yes, the servant understands."
Shi Luoyi's eyes flashed with resentment. She would never allow another child to be born. Any woman who wanted to fight her would die...
However, the autumn examination was about to begin and she didn't have much time left. She originally wanted to tie up the examiner and torture him, but she didn't know that the examiner was protected by the Jinwu Guards and she couldn't get close to him.
As for Shi Luoyi, of course she didn't know the specific content of the test questions, and she felt a little melancholy.
Shi Luoyi had no choice but to arrange for someone to disrupt Shi Xiaoyun's exam.
After all, she didn't care about the autumn exam. It was impossible for Shi Xiaoyun to be so unlucky.
Shi Luoyi focused all his attention on dealing with the two concubines in the mansion.
King Xiaoyao was often away from home during this period, making him out of reach, which gave Shi Luoyi an opportunity.
Shi Luoyi's men took advantage of the time when Concubine Zhou was admiring the flowers and used a wild cat to lure her to the edge of the pond. They then pushed Concubine Zhou into the lotus pond, resulting in two deaths, one of which was a very tragic one.
When Prince Xiaoyao learned that his concubine Zhou had died while pregnant and that the unborn child was a boy, he became ill with anger and stayed in his mansion to take care of the fetus.
When Aunt Zhang learned of Aunt Zhou's death, she was extremely depressed. She could feel the suffocation of death at all times, so she closed the door and refused to see anyone.
She originally thought that this way, she could save herself a lot of trouble, but she didn't know that some things could not be avoided just by wanting to.
Aunt Zhang concealed the news of her pregnancy and locked herself in the yard every day. However, in the middle of the night, she saw the ghost of Aunt Zhou floating in her room.
She was so frightened that she hit the pillar in a frenzy and jumped off the high platform. She miscarried the baby in her belly. Although she saved her life, she was crazy every day and could not recognize people.
When King Xiaoyao learned about this, his illness became even worse. He didn't want to see these women in the courtyard anymore, so he ordered Chang Xi to send him to a villa in the suburbs of Beijing.
There, his beloved woman Yue Niang was, and he didn't have to worry about the tedious affairs of the palace. Over the years, he was not so obsessed with whether he had children or not.
It was Yue Niang, who was smart, kind, and could sing songs, which made King Xiaoyao feel very at ease.
Yue Niang and King Xiaoyao had only met three times, but King Xiaoyao could no longer live without her. He pursued Yue Niang wholeheartedly and promised to give her the status of co-wife.
Yue Niang said that she didn't want anything, just his love was enough.
King Xiaoyao thought he had found true love and was naturally very moved, but he didn't expect that everything was just the calculations of others.
"Yue Niang, you are so considerate. This prince really likes you."
Yue Niang leaned against his chest, trying to please him gently and tenderly.
"The prince is like a reincarnated hero to Yue Niang. In Yue Niang's heart, there is only the prince, and no one else can replace him."
King Xiaoyao was intoxicated by her gentleness, and his ambition gradually faded. To him, Yue Niang was like a flower of eloquence, and he had already thought of bringing Yue Niang back to his mansion.
Only by looking at her every day can King Xiaoyao feel at ease.
Yue Niang gently embraced him in her arms, but her eyes were cold and indifferent, without any trace of her usual warmth.

Three days later, the autumn examination began in the Imperial Examination Hall in the capital. All the students entered the hall with simple bags on their backs and said goodbye to their families outside the hall.
Shi Qing patted Shi Xiaoyun's shoulder and said with a smile.
"Yun'er, just do your best and don't put too much pressure on yourself. Sister believes in you."
Shi Xiaoyun nodded and said firmly, "Sister, I will study hard for the exam. Please wait for me."
The autumn examination lasts for three days. The candidates' food, clothing and accommodation are all in the Imperial Examination Hall. They are not allowed to talk or talk to each other, nor are they allowed to look around. In short, the rules are very strict.
The chief examiners of the Imperial Examination Hall were Taifu Zheng and people from the Hanlin Academy. Among them, the Minister of the Dali Temple and the Prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture were responsible for guarding the Imperial Examination Hall and maintaining the situation inside.
Shi Qing went to Xiangguo Temple and prayed for Xiao Yun to be safe. When he left, he asked for a peace talisman for Xuanyuan Heng.
She had already led Shi Xiaoyun through the most difficult part of his journey, and everything else needed to be explored by Shi Xiaoyun on his own.
That night, Shi Qing brought a group of people to guard the dock. Among them were guards from Jingzhao Prefecture and attendants from the Marquis' Mansion. In short, their martial arts skills were top-notch, not to mention the two most powerful martial artists around Xuanyuan Heng, Qingfeng and Yueying.
Shi Qing lowered his voice and marked out the place where everyone was lying in ambush. When the contact person appeared, he would be arrested directly. No matter who he was, as long as there was solid evidence, he would be sent to the authorities.
Everyone was waiting at the dilapidated dock. The moonlight hid everyone's figures. When everyone was dozing off, there was suddenly movement at the dock.
The three ships stopped at the dock. After a while, three bird calls were heard, and soon the contact person hiding in the dark appeared.
Shi Jianye looked around vigilantly as usual. Although he had delivered countless goods in the past month, he was still a little nervous.
When he agreed to cooperate with the prince, he thought it was just about transporting supplies from the capital, but he didn't expect it to be cold weapons.
There is also salt that can only be sold by imperial merchants. If anyone is caught selling it, the person is punishable by death.
However, the money that King Xiaoyao sent every month had already filled Shi Jianye's pockets.
He had finally accumulated several thousand taels of silver, and he would never let anyone cut off his source of income.
Shi Jianye checked the goods and when he was sure that everything was correct, he called the contact person to come and inspect the goods.
"These are five hundred pounds of salt and over two hundred swords. They were all made to your order. Why don't you come and see for yourself?"
The person who came down from the cabin opened the bag and took a look and found that it was indeed the goods he wanted.
However, it was exactly what he had expected, so both sides started to exchange money for goods.
Shi Jianye looked at the pile of silver bills and felt satisfied, but he had not yet taken the silver.
Just hearing the unusual movement not far away, people from Jingzhao Prefecture came out first and surrounded the area.
The people who came down from the cabin then realized that someone had been waiting for them for a long time. They immediately looked at Shi Jianye with suspicion and said with gritted teeth.
"Well, you dare to collude with the government to harm me? Get out of here!"
After saying that, the group of people planned to leave, but Yueying was agile and quickly cut the rope.
Yueying glanced at the person next to her and spoke slowly.
"Don't bother running away. There are government officials everywhere. It's probably futile for you to try to escape anywhere."
