The best county magistrate

"Your teacher?" the veiled woman asked in confusion.

When mentioning Yang Xuanchen, Zhao Yanli's face showed a proud expression.

"That's right, my teacher is the number one in the literary world of Dayan, a legendary figure that even Mr. Tuoba of Northern Liao praised highly."

Hearing him say this, the veiled woman laughed out loud, "So it was him!"

"Ok?"

"Beautiful sister, do you know my teacher?"

Zhao Yanli revealed a skeptical look as he spoke.

"Master Zhao Yun, if your teacher's surname is Yang and his given name is Xuanchen, then I do know him."

"I had dinner and drinks with him just yesterday!"

I'm surprised. This shocked Zhao Yanli.

No wonder this guy Yang Xuanchen asked me to recite so many poems and said that they could pick up girls. It turns out that it was all arranged!

If you fail to pick up girls now, let me see what you will say later!

The actor you hired is no good. He hasn't even practiced the basic skills well. He exposed his true colors with just a few words.

Yang Xuanchen and Zhao Xue, who were separated by a wall, naturally knew who the veiled woman was.

They held back their laughter, wanting to see how far Zhao Yanli and Gu Li could talk.

But from the current point of view, it seems that the conversation went well, at least it did not cause any discomfort to Gu Li.

"Shh, don't make any noise, let's take a look!"

"I didn't expect this silly boy to have a way of dealing with women."

Hearing what Yang Xuanchen said, Zhao Xue showed a sly smile and hummed lightly.

The two of them listened attentively again.

"Beautiful sister, I...ah, I'd like to ask, are you the actor hired by my teacher?"

This question confused Gu Li.

actor?

What actor? Do I look like an actor?

"That guy Yang Xuanchen can't hire me, and I don't have time to act for him. Maybe you have some misunderstanding?" Gu Li sighed unhappily.

"Really? I don't believe it?" Zhao Yanli raised his voice a few times, trying to trick her.

Unexpectedly, Gu Li rolled his eyes at him, stood up and wanted to leave.

"Wait a minute, sister. I didn't mean to provoke you." Zhao Yanli said this with an aggrieved look on his face.

"My teacher said that my literary literacy was too poor and I couldn't memorize the Four Books and the Five Classics. He said that I had to find a new way to learn these things well."

"Stop, stop, stop. What does what you said have to do with me?" Gu Li asked calmly with his arms folded.

Zhao Yanli scratched his head when she asked him this.

At this time, Zhao Xue became anxious. If she hadn't been wearing shoes, she could have dug a courtyard with three ins and outs on the ground.

"How stupid! You just praised her beauty and I couldn't help but want to get closer to her!"

Hearing this, Yang Xuanchen looked at her with wide eyes, "You really don't mind the big deal. What if Gu Li falls in love with your brother?"

"Wait until Yanli is eighteen years old and is crowned the Crown Prince, and then let her be the Crown Princess?"

"Do you think those civil and military officials would allow a woman from Northern Liao to be the Crown Princess or the Queen?"

Zhao Xue snorted, expressing her dissatisfaction, "What's wrong with that? It's enough for two people to love each other."

Then she murmured in a voice that only she could hear, "If you love me, I can marry you."

"What? What did you say about getting married or not?"

"No, nothing." Zhao Xue patted her chest in fear, then glared at him fiercely.

"Nothing, what are you mumbling about? I didn't hear what they said."

Yang Xuanchen said this and stuck his head out again.

Zhao Xue standing by was so angry that her teeth were itching, you idiot!

On the other side, Zhao Yanli seemed to have thought of something to say and a silly smile appeared on his face.

"Since you know my teacher, why don't you tell me your name so I can talk to him when I see him later."

Seeing that he looked quite sincere, Gu Li did not doubt it and took off her veil, "Beiliao Xuanmiao Pavilion, Gu Li."

The moment she took off her mask, a gleam of light flashed in Zhao Yanli's eyes.

Beautiful, so beautiful!

I want to marry her as my concubine!

This is what the teacher said: Orioles are singing on the island in the river, the beautiful lady is sought after by the gentleman.

"You are the only one here at Yayunji today? Your teacher is not here?"

"Here he is. He was watching a literary duel in the waterside pavilion in front. He asked me to find a girl to practice with..."

This honest boy was speechless when he saw the beautiful woman and told her all his secrets.

Yang Xuanchen was so angry that he wanted to go up and demonstrate it to him in person.

Gu Li listened with a cunning look in his eyes, "Go call your teacher and tell him that I have something to ask him!"

Zhao Xue poked Yang Xuanchen's waist and said, "Hey, a beautiful girl is looking for you, why don't you go?"

"Fuck you, you go if you want to go, I won't go." He pushed Zhao Xue outside and quietly ran away.

As he ran away, he heard Gu Li's surprised voice, "Master Zhao! Why are you here?"

Oh shit, why is Gu Li so excited to see Zhao Xue?

There seems to be some story here. I have to go back and listen to it.

Yang Xuanchen tiptoed back to the wall again.

"Miss Gu... Miss Gu Li, what a coincidence."

"Hey, Master Zhao Yun, you're here too. What a coincidence."

When Zhao Yanli heard his sister say this, he naturally understood. He nodded, thinking that now was not the time to reveal his true identity.

"Ah, Brother Zhao Xue, long time no see."

Phew, Yang Xuanchen almost laughed like a pig, and now he had to cover his mouth and it was so hard to hold it back.

Gu Li didn't expect that Zhao Xue would be there. Her little face was already flushed, and she had a hard time controlling her excitement.

She asked, "I didn't expect that Mr. Zhao would be in the mood to come here today. Did you come here specially because you knew I was in Shangjing City?"

I Zhuo, what the hell? This was the inner thought of both Yang Xuanchen and Zhao Yanli at the same time.

One of them was staring at the other, while the other was staring at Gu Li through the wall.

What's with her shy, affected, timid little girl attitude?

"Zhao... uh, Brother Zhao, what are you doing?"

Zhao Yanli seemed to hear the sound of his own heart breaking at this moment.

Oh my God, I finally fell in love with a girl, but I didn’t expect that this girl would fall in love with my own sister.

It's really unfair! It's really unfair!

"What do you mean we are here? Miss Gu Li and I have known each other since last month. She is a big customer of Mengpo Zhai and has bought many books!"

Zhao Xue didn't seem to notice Gu Li's expression and tone. Instead, she seemed a little happy. She thought that she was surprised and shy to see her.

"Brother Zilong, I just passed by here and saw you guys seemed to be talking about something."

"I was worried that my sudden appearance would disturb you, so I hid for a while, but I swear I didn't hear anything."

Zhao Xue raised her hand and swore to the sky. Then she winked at Zhao Yanli and said, "I have to go to Liuyinglu to do something. You guys chat first."

When Gu Li saw that she was about to leave, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes. He wanted to ask her to stay but didn't know what excuse to use.

I could only say stupidly, "Be careful on the road."

Before leaving, Zhao Xue pulled Zhao Yanli aside and said, "Are you stupid? Do you know how to compliment someone? You praised her for being pretty, smart, and talented!"

"I can see that you like her, you need to work harder!"

Zhao Yanli grabbed her sleeve and said, "You...you are stupid. When people see you, their eyes go straight and they blush."

"Do you think I'm still a child? She obviously likes you!"

After hearing what he said, Zhao Xue turned around and looked at Gu Li, and found that it seemed that she only had eyes on her.

And that look of reluctance yet not daring to say it out loud, I'm so sad!

Thinking of this, Zhao Xue couldn't help but shudder.

"You rascal, I'm a woman, she's also a woman, how is that possible?"

Zhao Yanli curled his lips, looking stupid, "Sister, you are wearing men's clothes now. In her eyes, you are a man!"

This made Zhao Xue feel depressed, as if she had to wear men's clothes every time she met Gu Zhen.

Am I so popular with girls when I dress like a man?

No wonder so many girls were staring at me along the way. It turned out they were not looking at Yang Xuanchen but at me.

When she thought about causing such a huge mistake, she wanted to die.

In order to avoid embarrassment, Zhao Xue shook off Zhao Yanli's hand, walked away without looking back, and walked faster and faster.

"Sister Gu... Sister Gu Li, I'm leaving too. I just remembered that I still have chicken soup stewing at home..."

After both of them left, Gu Li let out a long sigh and felt a little depressed.

Yang Xuanchen, who was hiding aside and seeing and hearing everything, was stunned on the spot.

This...what is going on? Run away quickly, otherwise I won’t be able to explain myself if Gu Li finds out.
