After Lin Qi's birthday, Zhao Yunze never came again, as if his appearance that day was just Lin Qi's hallucination, but the fan he gave was still there, proving that it was not an illusion.

Lin Qi and Zhao Yunze had very little or no communication in normal times.

But right away, the two must communicate, because the day of the township examination is approaching.

In the autumn of July, the weather was slightly cool, and the Zhao family received the news of the township examination, and the Zhao family would naturally send someone to take the exam.

The young master of the Zhao family, Zhao Yunjun, can directly inherit the Zhao family business, so there is no need to participate in this activity, and he is indeed not very good at learning, so the important task of taking the imperial examination is naturally Zhao Yunze's.Now the time has come, Zhao Yunze naturally wants to take the imperial examination.

However, while Zhao Yunze was participating, he went to find Lin Qi.

As we all know, during the year when Lin Qi was in the Zhao family, he was studying besides studying, and his purpose was naturally very clear, that is to take the imperial examination.

Lin Qi was not surprised to see Zhao Yunze looking for him. The two of them sat down in the hut, and it was the first time they chatted.

"Master Zhao is here for the imperial examination?"

"Just call me Zhao Yunze, we have met in the palace before, so there is no need to be so cautious."

"Ah."

"Actually, my visit this time has something to do with the imperial examination, but I'm mainly curious about what you want to do after taking the imperial examination."

"If you can pass, take the test, if you don't pass, then read."

"Your answer is very scholarly. What about the period? After you win, you just study?"

"It's not sure if you're right or not..."

"You will definitely hit it. With your ability, it's no wonder you don't hit it."

Lin Qi didn't speak, Zhao Yunze continued.

"Then have you ever thought about getting married after the exam..."

Hearing this, Lin Qi understood that Zhao Yunze wanted to marry Tang Fen after becoming an official, but it was really difficult.

"not easy."

"what?"

"It's difficult for you and Miss Tang to get married now, and it will be even more difficult after you become an official."

Zhao Yunze naturally knew this, but Lin Qi didn't know what else to say.

"Yeah...is there really no other way..."

Lin Qi shook his head.

Zhao Yunze lowered his head and pondered for a while, not only asking himself but also Lin Qi, and said in a low voice: "What if I insist on marrying her..."

Lin Qi didn't speak any more, just looked at Zhao Yunze quietly.

Zhao Yunze was born very handsome, with profound talents and a bright future, coupled with a strong family background, who wouldn't be worthy of him?But what he likes is not worthy of him.

Zhao Yunze sat in Lin Qi's room for a while, then left.

The next day, Zhao Yunze did not come to look for Lin Qi, but Lin Qi saw Zhao Yunze on the street.

Lin Qi seldom went out, mainly because he wanted to inquire about the news of the rural examination, but he did not expect to meet Zhao Yunze.Zhao Yunze seemed to have a dispute with someone on the street, and they were arguing about something.

"Ah Qing, look at what happened to Mr. Zhao."

Upon hearing the order, Ah Qing went over to inquire immediately, and came back to report after a while: "My lord, it seems that someone is gossiping about Miss Tang behind her back."

Lin Qi listened carefully to the content of the quarrel, and it was indeed about Miss Tang.

"What is the identity of the gossiper?"

"It seems to belong to some noble family."

Lin Qi took a closer look and recognized those people.These people beat him when he was not in power. He is not a kind person, and now he has a decision in his heart.Lin Qi walked forward a few steps, passed through the crowd, pulled Zhao Yunze away and punched the leader.

The man was stunned by the sudden appearance of Lin Qi, recognized that it was Lin Qi, and laughed loudly: "Oh, what kind of dog dares to hit me?!"

Lin Qi didn't talk nonsense, and punched him again.

Seeing the situation, Zhao Yunze also started beating people, and those few people didn't wait to be beaten, they immediately fought together.Lin Qi was not very good at fighting since he was a child, so he withdrew after a few fights and stood on the sidelines.

Zhao Yunze is a good striker. He didn't react just now, but now he reacted and immediately started to fight. After a while, several people on the opposite side were knocked down.

After the fight, Zhao Yunze asked Ah Qing to take care of the rest, and then dragged Lin Qi away.

The two of them didn't say anything along the way, Zhao Yunze took Lin Qi with one hand, strode forward, walked for a while, and stopped in front of a mansion.

Lin Qi looked up at the plaque and understood that this was the Tang family.

Seeing that it was Zhao Yunze, the guards in front of the door immediately let two people in, and took Zhao Yunze to sit down in a private room of a teahouse.

Both of them didn't know what to say to each other, Zhao Yunze only started talking after the tea was served.

"Just now……"

"I have a little bit of a holiday with those people, and it has nothing to do with you."

"Oh……"

After being silent for a while, Zhao Yunze said: "I met Tang Fen just now. I thought she wanted to marry me... because if that's the case, I can marry her back if I make trouble." Zhao Yunze drank She sipped tea, and continued, "But she said that she didn't want to do this. She said that she really liked me, but my first wife shouldn't be like her, and she wouldn't be someone else's concubine. She said, if I If I want to develop well, I have to marry someone better, if I really have to marry her, she won't say anything."

Lin Qi was stunned for a while, but didn't speak.

"She used to always... always said she wanted to be with me."

"Is there a reason for Miss Tang's sudden change of attitude?"

"Who knows, maybe I don't want to be scolded. That's right. After all, she is a girl. Outsiders say that she is high on me all day. If I marry her, it will be a success in 'high climbing', but she should know, It has nothing to do with her or whether I marry her or not..."

"Could it be threatened?"

Zhao Yunze was taken aback when he heard this.

"I wonder if you know Princess Qingyuan?"

"how do I say this?"

"I'm not sure, but you should know that Princess Qingyuan originally had a marriage contract with me. After my family fell, the marriage contract was naturally terminated. The emperor's second son-in-law is you."

Because the Zhao family is the largest of the several major families in the court today, and the eldest son of the Zhao family, Zhao Yunjun, has a regular wife, so the person who can marry naturally becomes Zhao Yunze.

However, Tang Fen suddenly appeared in the past few months, the emperor was naturally dissatisfied, Mr. Zhao was definitely not willing to ruin this good marriage, knowing that he couldn't do anything to Zhao Yunze, so he attacked Tang Fen.

"How did you know?"

"I heard someone gossip about it when I was sitting in a teahouse before. It's not sure if it's true or not, but you can check it out."

Zhao Yunze was silent for a while, and went back to Zhao's house to wait for Ah Qing to come back.

If he wanted to find out about his own father, he wouldn't dare to use the servants of the Zhao family at will, but Ah Qing was his confidant, although he didn't have much communication with him, he was definitely loyal to him.This matter is not difficult to investigate, and it is very appropriate to leave it to him.

Lin Qi and Zhao Yunze returned to the Zhao Mansion, and it was also the first time Lin Qi came to Zhao Yunze's room.

It was rare for Zhao Yunze not to talk nonsense, probably because Tang Fen's affairs had suffered a lot, and it was even more impossible for Lin Qi to talk, so the two of them just sat like this, silent.

After sitting for a while, Lin Qi suddenly remembered something, stood up, greeted Zhao Yunze softly, and went out.

It was getting late, Ah Qing hadn't come back yet, Zhao Yunze's small kitchen had already started dinner.

The Zhao family seldom eat together because they don't always get together, otherwise it would be too embarrassing for only one Zhao Yunze and Mr. Zhao's second wife to eat together.In addition, the husband is now pregnant, which is more convenient, so the family banquet is omitted, and only dinners are held during the holidays.

When the meal in the small kitchen was almost ready, Lin Qi came back with an extra jug of wine in his hand.

"You are..."

"Gentleman Bamboo."

Junzizhu is a famous wine in the capital. The name may not be elegant, but the wine is really good.

The food was almost ready, and the servants left after serving the food, leaving only Zhao Yunze and Lin Qi.

Lin Qi unsealed the wine, and a fresh fragrance overflowed.

"You still drink?"

Lin Qi gave a rare smile and said, "People always have a little interest."

After finishing speaking, Lin Qi poured Zhao Yunze and himself a glass.

Zhao Yunze had something on his mind right now and couldn't eat, so he just drank a few cups of wine.Lin Qi didn't eat much, and drank with Zhao Yunze.

Lin Qi had a good capacity for alcohol. Before the fall of the Lin family, some elders always joked that he would not get drunk after a thousand drinks when he grew up. This joke really came true. He is only thirteen now, but it is difficult to get drunk.

As for Zhao Yunze, it was different.

He has rarely been exposed to alcohol since he was a child. Although this is not the first time he has drunk it, it is not far from it. Moreover, he is not good at drinking by nature, and his mind is not clear after a few drinks.Zhao Yunze was afraid of getting drunk and causing trouble, so he immediately stopped drinking.

At this time Ah Qing finally came back, seeing Zhao Yunze in a daze before him, wondering if he should speak at this time.

"What's the situation?" Lin Qi asked for Zhao Yunze.

"I went to the servants of the Tang family. They didn't know the details, but someone did look for Miss Tang before. After that, Miss Tang was often in a trance, and then formed the current situation with the second young master."

"So it should be persecuted." Lin Qi analyzed.

"Who is that?" Ah Qing asked.

"Who knows, this marriage between Tang Fen and him is not good for many people, and it is possible for anyone. Let's do this first, and we will talk about this matter after we come back. You go out first and find Mr. Zhao's personal maid or something."

"Yes."

"No need." Zhao Yunze spoke suddenly after being silent for a long time, "They are too annoying."

"Then...Ah Qing, go and tell them Mr. Zhao has gone to sleep and pack up tomorrow. No one can come in."

"Ah."

Ah Qing left, Lin Qi looked at Zhao Yunze lying there half asleep with his eyes closed, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart.After hesitating for a while, he still dragged Zhao Yunze up and put him on the bed.

Just as he was about to leave, Zhao Yunze suddenly pulled him down too, and Lin Qi fell down next to Zhao Yunze in shock.

Perhaps Zhao Yunze could no longer tell who was right, so he took Lin Qi's hand and called Tang Fen, as if he wanted to go one step further.Lin Qi was not an idiot either, he broke free immediately.

If this scene was seen by others, Lin Qi would be in trouble.

A year ago, the relationship between Zhao Yunze and Tang Fen hadn't even started yet. Before that, Zhao Yunze had never had anything to do with any young ladies. It didn't matter because he was young, but after he brought Lin Qi back home, it didn't matter. There are often rumors and rumors that Zhao Yunze broke his sleeve, and it may be because of this that Lin Qi didn't look for him much after he recovered from his illness. Now this scene will definitely be misunderstood, so he and Zhao Yunze really jumped into the Yellow River to wash their hands. I don't know, although the Yellow River is full of mud and sand, it can't be washed clean...

But not only outsiders were curious, even Lin Qi wanted to know why Zhao Yunze saved him in the first place?

"Zhao Yunze?"

"Hmm..." Zhao Yunze replied in a daze, as if he was about to fall asleep.

"Why did you save me in the first place?"

Zhao Yunze didn't speak.

Lin Qi suddenly realized that Zhao Yunze might not be able to figure out who this "I" was, so he changed the way of asking.

"Why did you save Lin Qi?"

"He looks good..."
