Daily life in the academy

As soon as I closed the cabinet door, the door of the room was opened. Fortunately, the carved area above the wardrobe was hollowed out, so the furnishings inside the room could be seen clearly, but it was difficult for people outside to see what was going on inside.

"Qiao'er, come and help me put on my makeup. I've been standing for a long time, and this dress is making me feel a little breathless."

"Yes, ma'am."

Two soft female voices sounded from the room.

The three people in the cabinet looked at each other, all with confused expressions.

Bai Zhi poked Mu Bailian in front of her and asked quietly, "What's going on? Didn't we agree to visit the Divine Envoy? Why are you in the Divine Lady's room?"

"I'm done for now. I'll be dead if I'm discovered. Why did I forget to check the almanac before going out today?" Wenzhe said with a sad face.

Mu Bailian himself was bewildered. This was the room that the servant had pointed to, so how could he have made a mistake? The questioning and grumbling on the left and right made him feel upset. If he accidentally entered a girl's room and was caught as a thief, the old man would beat him to death.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Bai Zhi poked him again: "Hey, what should we do now?"

Mu Bailian: "What can I do? I can only wait for them to leave."

"Ignore inappropriate behavior." Wenzhe muttered with his eyes closed.

Even though the temperature was not high now, Mu Bailian felt extremely uncomfortable being squeezed in the middle. He was squeezed from both sides, especially his back. That damn kid Bai Zhi was too thin and stiff. He really couldn't stand it. He twisted twice, trying to make himself more comfortable. The space in the cabinet was already small, and there were three people squeezed in together. He twisted back and forth, making it difficult for the other two to breathe.

Wenzhe was forced to open his eyes: "Bai Lian, it's already this late, please be quiet for a while."

Mu Bailian complained, "Bai Zhi, where did you eat? You're so skinny, it's like there's a wooden board on your chest, and it's so hard that it hurts me."

Bai Zhi was furious. Even at this hour, the young master was still complaining about the environment, twisting and turning as if he wasn't being noticed. She scolded him, "I'm not eating your food. I'm strong, so what's it to you? Stop twisting and turning like a bug."

"Who are you calling a bug? You are the bug. This young master is so heroic."

"Whoever answers is a bug."

"You..." Mu Bailian thought that he must have a smug look on his face, and wanted to turn around and glare at him, but his movement was too big and he bumped into the cabinet door.

There was a "dong" sound.

"Qiao'er, why do I hear a noise in the closet? Go and take a look."

"Yes, ma'am."

The maid named Qiao'er put down the pearl hairpin in her hand and walked towards the cabinet door.

Listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer, the three people in the cabinet turned pale, their eyes widened, and ten thousand ways of dying flashed through their minds.

With a "bang", the cabinet door was opened and four pairs of eyes met.

Qiao'er's face twitched at 0.25 times the speed, and fear took over. She screamed "Ah--" in a shrill voice, and she kept backing away in fear until her way was blocked by the curtain pillar.

"Qiao'er, what's wrong?"

"Miss, Miss... there is a thief... there is a thief peeping." Qiao'er's voice was trembling and filled with tears.

The woman called Miss stood up with a look of surprise on her face, lifted her skirt and walked quickly to the cabinet door, where she saw three handsome young men with embarrassed expressions.

At this time, the three people in the cabinet finally saw the true face of one of the goddesses, who was truly stunningly beautiful and unparalleled in the world.

Bai Zhi touched her nose and smiled awkwardly: "Girl, if I say... we didn't do it on purpose, would you believe me?"

.....

Zhou Lin was sitting in a tea stall at the entrance of the alley next to Xiyun Tower, waiting for his young master to come out. He was leisurely eating melon seeds, and from time to time he looked in the direction of Xiyun Tower to see if there was any sign of his young master. Surprisingly, he saw a team of soldiers from the city defense camp walking into Xiyun Tower in an orderly manner.

He crossed his legs and swung his right foot, thinking that Xiyun Tower was really bustling today. Even the soldiers from the city defense camp were here. Could it be that another young master was causing trouble? Alas... I really wanted to go in and catch a glimpse of the goddess!

Just when he was wondering why the young master didn't let him go in, he saw the soldiers from the city defense camp who had just entered escorting three men out. Zhou Lin took a closer look, suddenly stood up, dropped the melon seeds in his hand, and ran over with a sad face.

Bai Zhi and Wen Zhe accepted their fate and were led by the soldiers. Only Mu Bailian struggled and grumbled, "Let me go. I told you I didn't see anything."

"Whether you saw it or not, we'll know after we interrogate you." The soldier commander said bluntly.

Qiao'er followed her out of Xiyun Tower and stopped in front of several soldiers. "This matter concerns my lady's reputation. I hope my lord will take care not to tarnish her name."

"Don't worry, young lady. Our city defense battalion will not let any criminal go."

"Then I would like to thank you all on behalf of the young lady." Qiao'er bowed and turned back into Xiyun Tower.

"take away."

Gradually more and more people gathered around, whispering and pointing.

Zhou Lin finally squeezed in and wanted to rush to Mu Bailian.

"Please disperse, all outsiders." The soldier stopped Zhou Lin and prevented him from going forward.

Zhou Lin asked anxiously, "Master...Master, what's wrong with you?"

Mu Bai looked at him with a depressed look, his lips moved but he didn't say anything in the end. He was the son of a general, if he was rumored to have peeped at a woman changing clothes, he would become a laughing stock in the whole city.

This was the first time Zhou Lin had seen his young master like this. Thinking he had been wronged, he became anxious and shouted, "How dare you! Do you know who you are arresting..."

"Shut up!" Mu Bailian glared at him. You still think your young master isn't shameful enough, right?

"But young master...how can I explain to the master and the mistress..."

Zhou Lin looked bitter and didn't know what to do.

Hearing him say this, Mu Bailian's face became even worse.

"Can you get some help?" Bai Zhi asked in a low voice.

If she was really convicted of being a flower thief, she wouldn't care, since she wasn't taking the imperial examination anyway. Wenzhe and Mu Bailian were different. This matter was discussed by the three of them together, and it wasn't just one person's fault.

Mu Bailian suddenly had an idea and shouted to Zhou Lin, "Go find Brother Ayao and come save us!"

"Oh, okay." Zhou Lin agreed readily and stopped following.

Wait... Brother Ayao... who is that? Zhou Lin's face fell again. When he looked up and was about to ask, the person had already walked away.

Ayao...Ayao...Ayao...

Ah, isn’t that the prince?

Zhou Lin slapped his head and ran towards Prince Ning's Mansion.

The three were taken to the prison of the city defense camp. The smell of sour food and mold was so strong that it was really unpleasant.

"Just stay put. If you enter the city defense camp, you'll be skinned alive. Don't expect any cats or dogs to save you, a bunch of stinky bugs."

"Pooh."

The two soldiers who were holding them pushed the three of them in, locked the door, spat at them, and walked away.
