Quick Wear: The paranoid beauty grabs the waist and spoils her

Chapter 376 How to Compete with His Peerless Charm 21

There was peace in the palace and the next day came quickly.

At the same time, Nan Xiang opened the door and came to the study. What caught her eye was Ji Qingchen wearing a moon-white Shu brocade suit embroidered with tiny crabapple flowers, like dots of flowers scattered in spring.

He was in the study, reading quietly. The sunlight shone through the carved window lattices and onto his body, as if he was coated with a layer of warm light, revealing his gentleness and unparalleled elegance.

Nan Xiang didn't know that there was another person in the palace who had hidden his identity like her. The curly-haired white ball who had been in Nan Xiang's system space knew it, but it couldn't contact Nan Xiang and could only act as a mascot pendant and appear when necessary.

But this little world probably doesn’t need the curly-haired white ball.

Nan Xiang once again truly appreciated that peerless grace that blurred the gender like the moon in the mist or the crane in the clouds.

The word "peerless beauty" has become concrete.

Her thoughts couldn't help but drift away. Empress Ji, as the eldest daughter of the Duke of Wei, was known as the most beautiful woman in Daqian. The Duke of Wei's son, who had died on the battlefield long ago, must have been a handsome man with outstanding temperament.

Although his mind was full of wild ideas, Nan Xiang's expression was very restrained. As soon as he saw Ji Qingchen, he immediately bowed respectfully.

Then she gently placed the three books she had borrowed earlier on the desk.

Ji Qingchen looked indifferent, picked up the book casually, and began the test.

Fortunately, Nan Xiang has been studying diligently these days, and was able to answer Ji Qingchen's questions fluently.

Nan Xiang watched Ji Qingchen's expression gradually relax, knowing that her efforts were not in vain, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

When Ji Qingchen finished his thorough inspection and gave a "good" evaluation, Nan Xiang finally felt relieved.

She blinked and looked at Ji Qingchen expectantly:

"Empress, since I have answered all the questions, the reward is..."

Ji Qingchen's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.

All the negative emotions from last night had disappeared without a trace when I saw Nan Xiang again today.

He stood up, took out three more books from the bookshelf and placed them on the table:

"Xiao Nanzi, you are studious and inquisitive, you are meticulous in your work, and you are also very motivated and tireless. Keep working hard. I believe in you."

As he spoke, he handed the three new books to Nan Xiang.

"This is a reward."

Nan Xiang was originally full of expectations, but the moment she saw Ji Qingchen go to the bookshelf to get a book, she had a bad feeling in her heart.

As expected, I shouldn't have had such extravagant hopes after all.

She pulled a smile from the corner of her mouth and accepted the order.

Ji Qingchen naturally noticed the little eunuch's depression, but he remained calm.

He knew in his heart that the three books he gave her were not real gifts, and the real surprise was yet to come.

"My Lady, I will study this book carefully when I get back. After I finish reading it, please feel free to test me."

Nan Xiang said with a smile, her tone was gentle and respectful, but it also contained a hint of gnashing of teeth.

"No need to test, just look carefully, I believe you."

Ji Qingchen's smile became even more intense, and her cheeks even slightly flushed.

Nan Xiang didn't think much about it, just agreed with a smile, and then found an excuse to leave.

Ji Qingchen did not try to keep her and let her leave.

At this time, Liu Han came out from the inner room, and after considering for a long time, she spoke carefully:

"My lady, are you...having bad taste?"

Ji Qingchen shook his head gently: "No."

As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled out a snow handkerchief and started coughing violently.

Seeing this, Liu Han didn't bother to ask more questions and hurried forward to take care of her master with concern so that her master would feel better.

Nan Xiang was naturally unaware of the fact that Ji Qingchen coughed after Nan Xiang left.

At this moment, she was holding three books and returned to her room depressed.

Along the way, they met other palace maids and eunuchs and greeted each other.

Those people knew that Nan Xiang loved reading, and when they saw her bringing back a new book, their admiration for her grew even stronger.

Nan Xiang was helpless and secretly regretted that if she had known eight days ago, she would not have acted so book-loving in front of the Queen. Although reading is good, it is really too difficult.

“If the enemy has a plan, digs deep and fortifies high, lies in wait and does not move, we should attack his left and prepare his right, attack his right and prepare his left, remove manure from his fortifications and prevent their accumulation, block his path, stop his water supply, seize his narrow passes, attack where he is least prepared, and surprise him. Then we will surely be able to defeat the enemy.”

Nan Xiang sat on the chair, and suddenly a passage from the book in the queen's hand that she had caught a glimpse of when she took the book popped up in her mind.

She had never read it, but it looked like a military book to her.

What she found out was that the queen loved history books and travel notes, and had never heard that she was interested in military books.

But it is rumored that the Prince of Wei is extremely obsessed with books such as military strategies.

Why did it seem that the Queen was obsessed with military books during both meetings?

Perhaps the information I had obtained was not comprehensive enough.

Before she could figure it out, Sun Fuyu brought Empress Ji's reward.

After listening to the oral order read out by Sun Fuyu, Nan Xiang realized that this was the real reward, and she immediately smiled happily.

The small treasury is now much richer, and I feel very happy.
