MTL - Do You Know How to Capture a Villain?-Chapter 82 82%
"What is the issue that Ning Xian and Lan Li discussed in the master class?" Ji Qingzhuo asked the system.
The system quickly answered her with this message: "It means that a person dreams at night and dreams that he has become a butterfly. He thinks that maybe his existence is just a butterfly's dream. They are debating whether this person is a human or a dream. Butterfly."
After listening to Ji Qingzhuo, she felt that the twists and turns were outrageous, and she didn't quite understand it, but this did not prevent her from answering Lanli's question so that her identity would not be revealed.
She clasped her hands together and fanned them, showing the appearance of butterfly wings fluttering up and down. Lan Li glanced at her and understood what she meant.
——She did discuss the issue of dreams and butterflies with Ning Xian back then. This was almost considered a small incident in their childhood, and no one should have mentioned it on purpose.
Lan Li asked two more questions, and Ji Qingzhuo answered them one by one, but the three pieces of information stipulated by the system had been used up, so she was worried that Lan Li would ask again.
At this time, Lan Li asked the last question, "Ning Xian, do you still remember what I like to eat?"
Ji Qingzhuo couldn't answer this question, and she didn't intend to get an answer casually, so she shook her head honestly, and the jewels and emeralds on her temples shook and collided, making a crisp sound.
Lan Li actually asked casually. She still didn't believe that Ji Qingzhuo was Ning Xian. She suspected that the Ning family had specially trained her, so she asked an irrelevant question. It is impossible for Ning Xian to know her. What they like to eat, when the two of them were in school when they were young, they didn't have to deal with it.
However, Ji Qingzhuo, who could answer any question originally, shook his head and fell silent.
Could it be that she is really Ning Xian, Lan Li looked at Ji Qingzhuo with inquiring eyes.
Ji Qingzhuo didn't want to talk to her too much, but she didn't know where she should go. Lan Li had a lot of power in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and no one else dared to interrupt her when she was talking to Ji Qingzhuo.
"I didn't expect that after so many years, you have really changed." Lan Li snorted lightly, "It's just that managing money is not an easy job, so don't think that I can help you."
Ji Qingzhuo just pretended not to hear her, she was looking forward to going to a quiet place as soon as possible, but fortunately, Lan Li didn't dare to make things difficult for her, after all, behind "Ning Xian" was the Ning family.
She took Ji Qingzhuo to a separate small courtyard, where the dry bamboo was shaded, and the atmosphere was quite quiet, which was exactly what Ji Qingzhuo wanted.
However, this place was "specially" chosen by Lanli for Ning Xian. She knew that Ning Xian was out of temper and liked the most excitement, so she chose a clean place for her, so that she would feel bored here.
In the end, she didn't expect that Ji Qingzhuo showed his love for him as soon as he came here, and he directly sat on the main seat, touched the back of the chair, and started to pack his things.
Lanli thought, she must be pretending, pretending to be very happy, after a few days she will not be able to hold back.
So, she explained the precautions for eating and living here, then left Ji Qingzhuo and left alone.
After Lanli left, Ji Qingzhuo breathed a sigh of relief. She sat in her seat, relaxed her body, raised her hand to untie the cloak on her shoulders, and put it on the truss beside her.
She likes it so much, it looks like no one will set foot here for ten days and a half months.
Ji Qingzhuo walked around here and found that the backyard here is the place for daily life. Lan Li said that there will be people delivering meals, sweeping and cleaning up at regular intervals every day. The eldest lady's life is more difficult.
She didn't find it difficult, but felt great. Ji Qingzhuo felt that she could work here for the rest of her life.
Ji Qingzhuo took out the magic-seeking wheel and checked the location of some demons in the palace. Now the magic-seeking wheel is pointing to the east. The House of Internal Affairs where they are located is on the west side. The east is the deep palace. The demon is hiding in the center of the palace. Emperor Liang was deeply bewitched.
She knew that this demon was not easy to deal with, and she had better not expose herself, so she put away the magic wheel and started working.
Yes, Ji Qingzhuo came here pretending to be Ning Xian, and actually worked really hard. She is naturally sensitive to numbers, so calculating these accounts is not a problem, and she even enjoys it a bit.
Moreover, due to her talent, she worked extremely fast, and even took out the accounts of the previous few years to correct them, and sorted out all the vague and inaccurate records.
She took down the dusty ledger from the bookshelf. The dust choked her and sneezed. At this time, there was the sound of bamboo leaves rustling outside the courtyard. These bamboo leaves are withered and yellow in winter, so when the wind blows, they rustle. The fallen leaves are very fragile.
Ji Qingzhuo was immersed in his work, unable to extricate himself, until Shen Rongyu called her outside the door: "What is Zhuozhuo doing?"
She turned around holding the ledger, her face was stained with dust, and she looked rather embarrassed. She revealed the thick stack of ledgers she was holding in her arms, showing that she was working hard.
Shen Rongyu understood what she meant, and he was silent. After entering the palace, there were many cumbersome things to deal with. After he finished dealing with it, he immediately came to look for Ji Qingzhuo. He thought that she would feel awkward in a strange environment, or...or Yes, I will miss him a little bit, after all, she is really clingy sometimes.
Unexpectedly, she was working and looked very focused.
"Zhuozhuo, talk." Shen Rongyu called her with a dull voice.
Ji Qingzhuo didn't notice his strange emotions, she said: "I'm sorting out the accounts here, Xiaoyu, do you know that there were a lot of misrecorded accounts here in the past few years, and I found them all."
Shen Rongyu: "..." Isn't it normal for this kind of organization to seek some self-interest? Why do you expose it all to others?
"Isn't Zhuozhu tired?" He asked sideways.
"Not tired." Ji Qingzhuo quickly flipped through the ledger in her hand, quickly browsing through the messy numbers, and the moment she saw the ledger, she had already calculated the result, which was extremely efficient.
Shen Rongyu: "..." Okay, I'm tired of learning spells with me.
He walked into the house with his snow-burying sword hanging on his waist, but the white clothes were replaced by gray clothes. It was a neat and strong outfit. He looked good in any color and style of clothes, and the leather belt was tightly tied around his waist. It makes his waist narrow and his shoulders broad.
Ji Qingzhuo was very engrossed in handling the bills, Shen Rongyu rested his chin and looked at her lazily, he thought, if Ji Qingzhuo wanted to run away in the future, he would lock her up and not give her any fun, let her I can't even count the accounts.
"Xiaoyu, why are you here?" Ji Qingzhuo noticed that the atmosphere around him was getting weirder, so he raised his eyes and asked Shen Rongyu.
"Since I'm free, I'm here to look for you." Shen Rongyu said.
"But—" Ji Qingzhuo held an ink pen in her hand, and the nib of her pen for recording numbers stopped, "As a palace guard, shouldn't you be patrolling the palace?"
"Yes." Shen Rongyu said this quite confidently, "I ran away."
Only fools work hard.
For example, Ji Qingzhuo.
"Oh." Ji Qingzhuo solved his doubts, then bowed his head again, and continued to settle accounts.
Shen Rongyu asked her: "You like it so much?"
Ji Qingzhuo's thoughts were interrupted again, she asked: "What do you like?"
"Settling the accounts." Shen Rongyu pointed to the account book in front of her.
"The palace gave me money, five hundred and two dollars a month." Ji Qingzhuo stretched out five fingers to Shen Rongyu, "Xiaoyu, this is all for me, I only earned three dollars a month before."
Shen Rongyu chuckled lightly: "Will five hundred taels of silver be enough to buy you?"
Ji Qingzhuo felt that his words were strange, but she still nodded: "Yes, it's okay to have less."
Shen Rongyu laughed again, but his smile was sincere: "Okay, Zhuo Zhuo will accompany me to the palace for a walk, and I will give you five hundred taels."
Ji Qingzhuo had her own considerations in her mind, she could sit here to settle accounts, if Shen Rongyu hadn't come over, she could even lie down, walking around with Shen Rongyu would exhaust her to death.
So she refused: "Xiaoyu, I want to sit."
Shen Rongyu was not annoyed by her rejection so many times, because Ji Qingzhuo spoke every word seriously.
He didn't speak any more, just accompanied her quietly. It wasn't until evening that Ji Qingzhuo reorganized the accounts. In the past, it took at least a few months to recalculate the accounts for so many years, and three or four people calculated together , but it took Ji Qingzhuo only one afternoon to reorganize it.
Ji Qingzhuo didn't think there was anything wrong with what she did. She closed the last page of the account and finished today's work. She won't be so stupid as to hand in the results right away. She wants to save it and wait a month or two Then report, probably at a faster speed than ordinary people, so that the palace will not feel that the monthly money given to her has been lost.
She is well versed in the way of fishing, and after the end, she leaned back on the chair and took a sip of tea.
Shen Rongyu's Snow Burial Sword was placed on the table, and he smiled and asked her warmly, "Are you done?"
After work, you can always talk to him, right?
"Okay." Even if Ji Qingzhuo chatted with others, his speech was dry.
"You want to deal with this demon yourself?" Shen Rongyu asked.
"Yes." Ji Qingzhuo nodded, "Xiaoyu, this is my own trial."
"Then I won't interfere." Shen Rongyu replied.
Like Ji Qingzhuo, he is actually a very boring person with no hobbies. Except for a certain goal that must be done, he seems to have no interest in anything.
Now he has more fun for the time being, that is Ji Qingzhuo, such a dull girl, just sitting in front of him, is also cute.
Ji Qingzhuo rested her chin on the table, and she asked: "Xiaoyu, the imperial dining room will deliver food later, if you don't leave, do you want to eat together?"
"Eat." Shen Rongyu replied.
"But I'm the only one living here, and they only give one copy." Ji Qingzhuo whispered.
"Eat less." Shen Rongyu turned his head and glanced at her, "It's time to learn how to fast."
Ji Qingzhuo was a little aggrieved, but he didn't say anything, because Shen Rongyu was right, she even took the initiative to bring food for him after the dinner was delivered.
The food served by the female officials in the palace was good, the main course was a small half steamed chicken, Ji Qingzhuo even broke off the chicken wings, and gave Shen Rongyu a sandwich.
When Shen Rongyu said he wanted to eat it, he was joking of course, he wouldn't compete with Ji Qingzhuo for it.
But he looked down at Ji Qingzhuo's hand holding the food for him, and he still ate it, because her actions looked very enthusiastic, and "enthusiasm" is rare in Ji Qingzhuo's place. This made Ji Qingzhuo a little heartbroken. In Xuanyunzong, Elder Qiao Shu didn't know how to cook such delicious food. Qiao Shu likes vegetarian food, so the diet in Mingxin Lake is very light.
Ji Qingzhuo took small bites of rice, she thought, unconsciously, she seemed to get used to having one more person by her side, and she was originally...difficult to get along with others.
But Shen Rongyu is different, regardless of the tasks of the system, he is a very domineering person with a strong desire to control, he can't help but break into her life, from cultivation to daily life, everything has his presence.
Does she hate him like this?
of course not.
Ji Qingzhuo thought so, she wished that someone could arrange her life in an orderly manner, and Shen Rongyu just filled the vacancy she was looking forward to.
She thought that Shen Rongyu was fine, and to thank him, she tore off the chicken legs from the plate and put them in his bowl.
"Xiaoyu, eat." Ji Qingzhuo said to him.
"You don't want to eat?" Shen Rongyu doesn't care if he eats or not, but Ji Qingzhuo is greedy sometimes.
"Here you are." Ji Qingzhuo is a person who is willing to share. When she came to Xuanyunzong, she bought several bags of carrots, which she shared with Maomao. Maomao ate the good-looking ones, and she ate the ugly ones. Carrots taste the same anyway.
Therefore, Shen Rongyu's current status can barely be equal to that of Mao Mao.
In Shen Rongyu's eyes as warm as cold jade, the chill dissipated, his tone softened, and he returned the food to Ji Qingzhuo.
"Eat more." He said to Ji Qingzhuo, "You have to practice later."
The author has something to say:
Xiaoyu: No way, no way, there are really fools working, right?
Zhuo Zhuo: I seem to have forgotten who Shen Rongyu is.
