Chapter 11 Qin Yang

The sun sets over the western mountains and the lanterns begin to shine.

Ye Qinghuai followed the man through countless alleys in Xiacheng District. This man was obviously very familiar with this place. His accent sounded like the Mandarin of Shengjing, so he should be a native of Shengjing.

Walking out of an alley, the two stopped on a relatively spacious street. There were not many pedestrians on the street, and the few pedestrians were in a hurry.

The tall man stopped and turned around, looked at Ye Qinghuai, and said, "My name is Qin Yang. I am the boy in this study hall."

He gave up half of his body, allowing Ye Qinghuai to see the two-story building behind him.

The facade is not big, and the style of the outer pillars of the door is very simple. There is no carving or decoration, and it is not eye-catching. What caught Ye Qinghuai's attention was a plaque hanging on the door, with three powerful words on it -

Wenxintang.

Although Ye Qinghuai only had a superficial knowledge of calligraphy, he was still shocked by the awe-inspiring righteousness and strong character contained in these nineteen paintings.

She couldn't help but ask: "Who inscribed the words on this plaque?"

Qin Yang was slightly startled, then looked at her with a "you know it very well" look and said, "Who are you here for?"

Ye Qinghuai was so smart that she immediately understood the meaning of his words and said unexpectedly: "You mean, this plaque is... the inscription of the Literary School's wine ceremony?"

Qin Yang did not answer her, but raised the corners of his mouth and gave Ye Qinghuai a meaningful smile, then opened the door and walked in.

Ye Qinghuai knew that Qin Yang acquiesced to her guess. She raised her head again and looked at the inscription on the plaque. For some reason, her mind suddenly recalled Lu Yanchen's previous evaluation of Wang Lisong.

"He is an upright man, with the ambition of a green pine and the demeanor of a gentleman."

Indeed, only such a person can inscribe such a word.

She followed Qin Yang into the study hall.

Although the facade of the study hall is small, the inside is much larger than Ye Qinghuai imagined. It is a courtyard with four entrances. The first entrance has only a long corridor, with more than a dozen frames of calligraphy hanging on the corridor. The second entrance is

In the three-bay courtyard, you can see that there are three classrooms where teachers teach. On the third entrance, there is only one room facing south with the door open. There are more than a dozen rows of bookshelves neatly arranged inside, and the bookshelves are piled with books.

Ye Qinghuai followed Qin Yang all the way to the fourth courtyard. As soon as he entered the courtyard, Ye Qinghuai smelled the aroma of food.

"Little brother, you are so lucky. You have braised beef today." Qin Yang said to Ye Qinghuai. He spoke sincerely and seemed to really think that Ye Qinghuai was very lucky.

When I heard someone coming back, a girl ran out of the kitchen. The girl had bright eyes and white teeth. Her black hair was not combed into a bun, but was braided into a thick braid and placed on her shoulder. She was wearing an apron.

There is still some flour on the hands that has not been patted clean.

Seeing Ye Qinghuai and Qin Yang, she first looked at Ye Qinghuai quickly, and then cast her eyes behind them, as if looking for something.

"Where is the young master's family?" the girl asked.

"Young master has something to do at home, so he didn't come with me." After saying that, he took a sniff and said with a smile on his face, "Did you cook the braised beef?"

The girl's face darkened and she said, "You just know how to eat! You didn't know how to call the young master over for dinner, so I burned the beef in vain."

"How can it be cooked in vain? The young master is not here, so I will eat it for him." Qin Yang said carelessly and walked towards the kitchen.

However, before he could lift his legs, he was blocked by the girl's kick. She looked at Ye Qinghuai behind Qin Yang and said to Qin Yang: "I don't know how to introduce him, so I hurried to eat."

Only then did Qin Yang remember that Ye Qinghuai was following him as if he had just woken up from a dream. He turned around and said to Ye Qinghuai: "Brother, this is my sister, Qin Baozhu. She has a bad temper, and there is no one in the entire Wenxin Hall.

Dare to mess with her..."

The second half of his words were swallowed by Qin Baozhu's sharp eyes.

Qin Yang straightened his expression, pointed at Ye Qinghuai and said to Qin Baozhu: "This is..."

He frowned and his voice suddenly got stuck.

Only then did Qin Yang remember that he seemed to have never asked this little brother his name.

He took out Ye Qinghuai's travel voucher from his pocket and tried hard to distinguish the name on the travel voucher in the dim light.

"I'm congratulating you, I'm a candidate who went to Beijing to take the exam. I've met Miss Qin." Ye Qinghuai bowed politely to Qin Baozhu.

Qin Baozhu looked around Ye Qinghuai up and down with his big bright eyes, the smile in his eyes was a little strange.

It wasn't until Ye Qinghuai raised his head and looked at her with doubt that Qin Baozhu withdrew his hesitant gaze. She wiped her hands on her apron, then walked to Qin Yang and took his hand from him.

Li took Ye Qinghuai's coupon and said angrily: "What are you doing with this person's coupon?"

"This is not what I want to take..." Qin Yang explained a little aggrievedly.

Qin Baozhu ignored him. She turned around and walked towards Ye Qinghuai. She changed her face and put on a friendly smile. She didn't stop until she was within easy reach of Ye Qinghuai and stuffed Ye Qinghuai's coupon directly.

Entering Ye Qinghuai's collar, he said softly: "The coupon is important, Master, you must keep it."

For some reason, Ye Qinghuai felt that although there was a smile in Qin Baozhu's eyes when he looked at her, his smile was somewhat profound.

But just for a moment, Qin Baozhu took half a step away, pointed to an open door and said to Ye Qinghuai: "The back hall is over there, Mr. He, please help yourself."

After saying that, she turned around and walked towards the kitchen. As she walked, she said to Qin Yang: "Come here and help me serve the food!"

The tone was vicious again.

Looking at the backs of the two brothers and sisters, Ye Qinghuai couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

In the past, she had always dismissed the palace officials saying that women were moody, but now it seemed that it did make some sense.
