  The sun hangs in the western sky, reflected under the blue sky, and the white light is dazzling.

  As Zhang Qi walked along, the sound of the guqin and sheng drifted from the western courtyard, accompanied by the soft rustling of leaves and the occasional glimpse of a flying kite or a flash of red skirt. The laughter and music mingled with the willow branches dancing in the sky, evoking a unique flavor of spring.

  Zhang Qi walked and walked, when suddenly a voice called out: "Zhang Qi."

  Zhang Qi's footsteps paused, and she turned her head back to look.

  The one who called her was Zhang Dan, who had studied with her. She didn't expect to see Zhang Dan at this time, and Zhang Qi's eyes widened.

  She didn't know that Zhang Dan had almost married Xiao Ce as a concubine, if not for her using some small tricks to let another Zhang family distant younger sister, who was once her good friend, replace her, Zhang Dan wouldn't be standing here today.

  She met Zhang Qi's astonished gaze with a cold smile, thinking she had long been aware of her past. However, in an instant, she smiled and said, "Zhang Qi, you're really clever, far surpassing Zhang Wei."

  Zhang Qi blinked and called out softly: "Zhang Cen, are you okay now?"

  "It's really good." Zhang Cen laughed brightly, her voice like a silver bell. "But not as good as you. I heard that you've been favored by the Emperor now? When will you enter the palace as a concubine?"

  Suddenly, Zhang Qi didn't want to talk to her anymore. This Zhang Cen, every word that came out of his mouth was piercing, and it sounded very uncomfortable.

  She lowered her eyes and politely nodded to Zhang, saying: "Sister Cen, I have something to attend to, I'll take my leave." With that, she turned around and left.

  Looking at her departing back, Zhang's face, which was originally bright and beautiful, revealed a hint of disgust without any concealment. She lightly spat on the ground and muttered: "What are you pretending to be? Do you really think that with your status, you can climb up to a high position?"

  At this time, Zhang Gui came to the outside of Zhang Jin's courtyard.

  People are still outside the courtyard, and they can already hear a burst of chatter inside, with laughter that never stops. Listening again, there are at least five or six young ladies inside! All of them are legitimate daughters of the Zhang family!

  Zhang Qi's footsteps paused, and she quietly retreated to one side.

  She had no interest in going over there to entertain those legitimate daughters at this time.

  Just as they hid in the woods, Zhang Jin's clear voice came. "How come Zhang Qi hasn't arrived yet? You few go and take a look."

  "Yes."

  Before long, four maidservants stepped out of the courtyard gate.

  Seeing them, Zhang Qi lowered her head and retreated further into the garden.

  She can't go back to her room now. Afraid of being caught by the people sent by Zhang Jin. Walking along the small path, she arrived at the pavilion where she often met with Zhang Xuan again.

  At this moment, on the pavilion, Zhang Xuan was holding a book and arguing with a young man in an excited tone.

  Zhang Qi glanced over and was about to turn around, just then the young man saw her and shouted in a shrill voice: "A Qi!"

  It's Chen Yibang's voice!

  Zhang Qi turned around and saw Zhang Xuan waving at her, so she lowered her head and walked towards the two of them.

  In the empty corridor, only the sound of footsteps echoed. Zhang Qi slowly approached. Chen Ou gazed at her without blinking, seeing her lower her eyebrows and eyes. Her hair covered her forehead deeply, but a girl's elegant demeanor gradually appeared, and her eyes became brighter.

  Zhang Xuan glanced at him and sighed silently, then turned to Zhang Qi with a smile: "A Qi, what are you doing? Why do you look so silly?"

  Zhang Qi bowed slightly and called out "Jiu Xiong", then said softly: "Ah Qi suddenly found the ground covered with lush green grass, and felt a sense of nostalgia."

  Zhang Xuan smiled and said, "What's wrong, Ah Gui?" Chen Yun on the side also laughed and asked, "Ah Gui, what are you thinking about?"

  Zhang Qi's face turned red as she smiled and said in a soft voice, "Last night I had a dream where the ground was covered with lush green grass. Ah Qi wore white socks, white gauze, and a white silk shirt, walking on the grass, laughing happily."

  Under the sunset, Zhang Qiming's small face had a shy smile, with a faint joy between her eyebrows and eyes. It seemed that the dream last night still made her feel joyful and happy when she thought of it now.

  She seemed to have not noticed, Chen Yun's face changed slightly at this time.

  White kerchief, white gauze, and white silk blouse! At that time, famous scholars liked to have their new wives wear deep white clothes. White color, in this era of flourishing mysticism, represents the fashion of "taking nothing as the foundation, returning to simplicity and authenticity, pursuing clarity and elegance".

  This Zhang Qi is really ambitious, she not only wants to marry a famous scholar but also wants to become the wife of a famous scholar!

  Chen Ou's voice was hoarse as he said with a smile, "Ah Gui wants to marry a famous scholar? Among the famous scholars, although there are many sons of aristocratic families, it is likely that only a poor scholar would marry Ah Gui."

  When mentioning Hanmenzi, his tone was not without sarcasm. Whether it was his expression or complexion, they all revealed a kind of shallowness from the bone.

  Zhang Qi quickly lifted her head up.

  She looked at Chen Ou with big eyes and said in a crisp and soft tone, "How did Ah Yu know I wanted to marry Han's son?"

  That expression is so innocent, and the way she looks at Chen Yun is almost worshipful.

  Chen Yi's face sank.

  He wanted to say something, his mouth moved, but he swallowed it back. He just kept a straight face, nodded at Zhang Xuan and turned around without saying another word.

  He left, and Zhang Xuan let out a long sigh, muttering to himself: "A Yi is still young, his capacity is not yet sufficient."

  He turned his head to stare at Zhang Qi, looked at her for a moment, shook his head and said: "Why must you..." He paused, then pulled Zhang Qi's hand, "Don't mention this anymore. Ah Qi is a talented person, let me see how well I wrote this poem?"

  Unexpectedly, Zhang Gui was so easily irritated and walked away. Chen Yun was also delighted at this moment. She quickly responded with a sweet voice and leaned in beside Zhang Xuan to take a look at the silk book in his hand.

  Zhang Xuan turned his head to the side, looking at Zhang Qi's delicate small face covered by her thick hair, and said: "Qi was indeed unnecessary earlier. Mother had already rejected Chen Yi's proposal."

  What?

  Zhang Qi quickly lifted her head up.

  Seeing her bright eyes, excitement unhidden, Zhang Xuan shook his head. He closed the silk book and sat on the stone chair in the pavilion, looking at Zhang Qi and saying: "Ah Qi, Chen Yun is not bad, you rejected him, and you will regret it later."

  Zhang Qi's mood was pleasant, and she smiled slightly, saying: "Not at all." She looked at him curiously and asked: "What did your mother say?"

  Zhang Xuan furrowed his brow, "Mother didn't say much. She only said one sentence," Zhang Gui listened intently as Zhang Xuan continued, "Mother said that Ah Gui has a strong temperament."

  As soon as she spoke, Zhang Qi's face changed color.

  Is she a proud and arrogant person? What does it mean? Is it mocking her for climbing up to the emperor, or is it preparing to send her to some powerful noble as a concubine?

  Seeing Zhang Qi's eyes dim, Zhang Xuan let out another sigh. "That's why I said you were too sudden earlier. Following Chen Ou, not to mention anything else, in the future...

  "Ai Qi Xun has a son who relies on his mother's nobility." Following other dignitaries, I'm afraid it won't be until her son relies on his mother's nobility...

  In Zhang Xuan's sigh, Zhang Gui forced a smile. She lowered her head and rolled her eyes a few times before saying softly: "I'm afraid I'm not good enough to enter the emperor's and nobles' eyes."

  Zhang Xuan knew what she meant, he nodded and said: "Aqui don't worry, I won't tell mother." He reached out to stroke Zhang Qi's hair and said warmly: "It's also because of this consideration that I didn't insist on you following Chen Ou." Based on Zhang Qi's current expression

  Her appearance was not enough to attract any noble interest. She did not like Chen Yi, and he could still help her find a reliable family son.
