"Why does the evil doctor want to see me?"

Yan Ruzhi went out and sent someone back with good news and bad news.

The good news is that the evil doctor can expel the evil spirit from everyone, the bad news is that Youhuang must go and meet them.

"Why does the evil doctor want to see me?"

Youhuang was full of doubts. Could it be that they had discovered that there was something wrong with him?

The messenger who came back to deliver the letter said, "I don't know either. Miss Yan only asked me to come back to pass on the message, but didn't tell me the reason."

"Xuanbing, take him to explain the situation to the Marquis' wife, and ask her if I can go out." Youhuang gave the order without even raising his head, secretly wondering why the evil doctor asked to meet him.

Several heads of the families knew about her relationship with the old Taoist nun, so they should not ask to meet with her.

Shen Zhaojun agreed without much thought. After Youhuang went out, she found out that she had sent a team of twelve elite cavalrymen to accompany her. It was too exaggerated but quite safe.

Youhuang sat in the carriage holding a hand warmer, and headed to Sansheng Cottage under the protection of twelve elite riders.

At this time, Yan Ruzhi was on pins and needles, looking at the evil doctor playing with the evil energy that was extracted from her body with shame and uneasiness.

As a doctor, he didn't even know that he was also infected by the evil spirit. He was still running around everywhere every day with the evil spirit on him. I wonder if anyone has been innocently implicated.

"Miss Yan, there is no need to feel ashamed."

The evil doctor looked up at Yan Ruzhi's uneasy eyes, smiled calmly and said, "You are not a Taoist, so you naturally don't know the things in Taoism."

"I am just worried that you have been walking around a lot these days and might inadvertently infect innocent people." Yan Ruqiang told the truth. To be honest, she didn't expect that the evil doctor who was rumored to be so extreme and terrifying was actually so young, and even looked a little naive when he smiled.

On the contrary, the masked man next to him, although silent, gave her a strong sense of oppression, so that she dared not say a single word except for the questions she had to answer.

"Oh, by the way, what is the nickname of the little mute?" Guangbai smiled kindly and said, "I can't continue to call her the little mute when we meet later."

"Please forgive me for not obeying your order." Yan Ruzhi refused decisively and explained carefully: "Although Miss Chu grew up in the market, now that she has returned to the Marquis' Mansion, she is a noble lady of the Marquis's family. How can I casually tell outsiders my maiden name? I hope the two seniors will forgive me."

"..."

"The third and fourth young masters of the Chu family have arrived."

The masked man was about to speak, but was interrupted by a voice from the private room next door.

San Sheng Cottage is the most luxurious restaurant in Tiandu. Children from various noble families love to hold banquets here. Naturally, many of them are discussing academic matters here today.

Gu Ziru is the son of the prime minister. As a popular candidate for the top scholar in this year's spring imperial examination, he has just turned 20 years old. After performing the coming-of-age ceremony at home in the morning, he celebrated with his classmates at San Sheng Cottage.

Chu Yunze straightened the robes he had hurriedly put on and complained, "How dare you believe Chu Youhuang's lies? Have you forgotten how many times she made me kneel in the ancestral hall?"

"If you don't bully her, will she tease you?" Chu Yunduan was not one to spoil his brother, so he gently taught him, "You are already grown up, why do you still care about little things from your childhood?"

"If this wasn't related to the Marquis of Wushen Mansion, based on your previous attitude towards her, I wonder if she would be kind enough to remind you." Chu Yunduan said thoughtfully: "Don't blame me for not reminding you. You should be nicer to Huang'er next time, otherwise she will kill you with just a flick of her finger."

"With her sickly look, she wants to kill me with just a flick of her finger?" Chu Yunze said disapprovingly, "I can kill her with just one slap."

"I wish you success." Chu Yunduan said, and then he smiled at the man who was walking towards him and said, "Congratulations to Brother Ziru on your coming of age today. I wish you success in the imperial examination in advance. I hope you will be able to see the emperor in the imperial court one day, and that you will live up to your lofty ideals."

Gu Ziru said with a smile on his face: "Brother Yunduan, thank you for your good words. Please come in!"

Chu Yunze also came over and bowed, saying, "Brother, you have said all the good things. I wish Brother Ziru to marry a beautiful woman as soon as possible and live happily with you."

"Brother Yunze is still so humorous, but..." Gu Ziru stared at Chu Yunze's student robe and said, "You always like brightly colored clothes. Why are you wearing such plain clothes today?"

Chu Yunduan has been paying attention to Gu Ziru's expression.

Sure enough, after seeing that Yunze was not wearing brightly colored clothes, a hint of disappointment flashed across Gu Ziru's face.

Chu Yunze smiled and said, "Brother Ziru is the protagonist today. How can Yunze steal the limelight from you?"

"It's too polite to say that. Please come in."

Gu Ziru put on a smile again and warmly invited the two brothers to go inside.

The smile on his face disappeared as soon as the two of them left, and he said to the servant beside him: "Gu An, tell Miss Xie that the plan has changed, let her adapt to the situation."

Although his voice was very low, people who practice martial arts have excellent hearing, so Chu Yunduan and Chu Yunze heard every word.

They looked at each other and walked straight into the private room where the banquet was held. Before they got close, they heard the melodious sound of guqin. When they entered, they saw a beautiful woman playing the guqin.

This woman was none other than Xie Shixue, the seventh daughter of the Xie family, the current Zhongshu Ling.

We are both in Tiandu, so we are old acquaintances of the two brothers.

Seeing the two brothers coming in, Xie Shixue held down the strings of her zither, stood up and greeted them, saying, "Mr. Chu San and Mr. Chu Si are polite. Please take a seat."

Chu Yunduan said with a smile: "Thank you, Miss Qi, for your courtesy. My brothers and I are old acquaintances of Brother Ziru. You just need to greet those candidates who have just arrived in Tiandu, and we brothers will find a place to sit."

After saying goodbye to Xie Shixue, the two of them exchanged pleasantries with the young men from wealthy families they were familiar with, and deliberately chose an inconspicuous seat to watch the show.

Not long after they sat down, Gu Ziru personally brought in two young men of similar age.

Both of them were wearing scholar robes, probably preparing to take part in this year's spring examination.

Xie Shixue arranged the two of them to sit in the seats of honor under the gaze of everyone.

After seeing this, Chu Yunduan pretended to be curious and asked others, "Brother, do you know who these two are? Why does Brother Ziru think so highly of them?"

"You don't know them..." The man stared at the handsome faces of the two candidates and said, "Yan Guici and Shang Qingxian, two famous talents from Fengzhou and Jiangchuan, are the hot candidates for the top prize in this year's spring exam. The fact that they are valued so highly by Gu Ziru shows that they are truly talented and learned. Unfortunately, they have no support in heaven."

"A man of real talent and knowledge does not need support."

Chu Yunduan bowed to the other party and thanked him, then turned around and exchanged glances with Chu Yunze.

It is said that twins are very telepathic and they know what to do next just by exchanging glances.

After Gu Ziru went out again, Miss Xie Qi personally greeted Yan Guici and Shang Qingxian, and the three of them talked and laughed.

Chu Yunduan and Chu Yunze understood that this was all arranged by Gu Ziru.

The banquet officially began. Gu Ziru raised his glass and said, "Thank you all for coming to my small birthday banquet. Come, let me toast you all first."

Chu Yunduan and Chu Yunze were just pretending to drink. We should not have the intention to harm others, but we should always be on guard against them. Who knows what other plans Gu Ziru will come up with to harm others if his first plan fails.

After three rounds of drinks, Gu Ziru was in high spirits.

boom……

There was a loud noise coming from outside, and everyone went to the window to watch the excitement.

Chu Yunduan looked at the two familiar carriages downstairs and couldn't help but sigh: "Fate is really wonderful."
