Shangguan Chi curled his lips: "I didn't just ask, and I didn't really disturb his studies. You can't wrongly accuse me."

Teacher Wang took out the book and smiled: "It's a good thing you're here, continue reading."

Just a few books...

Shangguan Chi was frightened by the sight.

He shook his head and stepped back: "I remembered I have something else to do, so I'll leave now."

After he left the house, he disappeared in a flash.

Instructor Wang shook his head helplessly, and frowned when he thought of Nian Guiyun.

After Shangguan Chi and a group of boys had dinner, they saw Nian Guiyun reading under a tree.

He went over and pulled out the book: "It's time to rest. Let's go to the stable. Do you want to come?"

Nian Guiyun stood up and tried to take the book back: "I don't..."

Shangguan Chi put his hand on his shoulder and half-forced him to move forward: "Come on, let's go. There are newborn ponies to see."

A group of boys came up to him. Nian Guiyun was a little uncomfortable, so he shrank back and dared not speak.

The group went to the stable.

The horse servant showed them around and then took them to see the foal, which had just been born.

"When we learn horse riding, do we ride big horses or small horses? Big horses are too big and small horses are too small."

"Of course I ride a big horse. A small horse is so boring. But this horse is so beautiful."

Nian Guiyun looked at the foal following the mare, and smiled with relief, not knowing what he was thinking about.

Shangguan Chi caught it: "You finally have some expression. It turns out you like horses."

Nian Guiyun lowered his head in a hurry.

Everyone laughed.

After seeing the horses, everyone chatted about all sorts of things.

Nian Guiyun looked at their confident and assertive appearance, and his gaze finally fixed on Shangguan Chi's face.

Carefree and high-spirited.

Shangguan Chi turned around and waved: "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and follow me."

Nian Guiyun pursed his lips and followed slowly. He was still a teenager, so it was okay for him to be a little unrestrained, right?

Shangguan Mansion. Evening.

After dinner, Shangguan Haitong went to visit his fourth brother: "Are you getting used to the first day of class?"

Shangguan Chi's eyes lit up: "Except for reading, everything else is quite fun. Sister, I also met a very mysterious person. Although he is the son of a captain of police, he was able to study in the Imperial College. He holds books all day long, as if he wants to live with books for the rest of his life."

"Who is it? So interesting?" Shangguan Haitong smiled. It's a good thing for the fourth brother to know more people.

Shangguan Chi said happily: "His name is Nian Guiyun."

The smile on his face froze, and Shangguan Haitong was stunned: "Who are you talking about?"

"Nian Guiyun. He's about the same age as me. He's timid and especially afraid of people." Shangguan Chi was happy to share happy things.

Year Return Cloud...

A figure flashed through his mind, and Shangguan Haitong stood up in shock. It really was...

Shangguan Chi didn't understand: "Sister, what's wrong with you? Do you think he is?"

"I don't know him. Since it's interesting, don't mess around anymore. Don't try to get away with it. I'll check your homework tomorrow. You've been tired all day, so take a rest early." Shangguan Haitong turned around and left in a hurry.

Shangguan Chi glanced at her unhappily. Why did the elder sister not look so happy?

It was completely dark.

Lanterns were lit in the palace.

Shangguan Haitong walked in the corridor, feeling confused. Years go by, years go by...

Huan Shuang saw something and asked softly, "Miss, what's wrong? What's wrong with the person that the Fourth Young Master mentioned?"

Shangguan Haitong shook her head gently: "There's nothing wrong, I just didn't expect to have contact so early."

It turns out that Nian Guiyun once studied at the Imperial College.

In his previous life, my fourth brother did not go back to continue his studies, but instead hired a teacher at home.

Is that why I missed it? At the age of twelve...

Nian Guiyun will emerge in five years, and it should not be too late at this time...

Shangguan Haitong lowered her eyes.

Yes, I haven’t met the Third Prince yet. I haven’t become the Third Prince’s knife yet, but I was finally abandoned.

Nian Guiyun’s identity should not appear in the Imperial College, this matter needs to be investigated thoroughly.

She smiled, determined to win over Nian Guiyun, her former enemy and friend.

Shangguan Haitong ordered: "Get ready and go to Ruan's house tomorrow."

"Yes." Huanshuang accepted the order.

Shangguan Haitong was slightly excited. The more people she got, the more advantageous it would be in the future...

The next morning.

Shangguan Chi, who had never liked studying, got up unusually diligently, had breakfast and went to the Imperial College.

Shangguan Haitong arrived at Ruan's house by carriage. Ruan was receiving guests, so she went to Ruan Yi's boudoir to wait.

Ruan Yi said while eating snacks: "You don't know, that Zhao had the nerve to come to my house. I heard that he bought something valuable and sold his pregnant wife for it. But when he went to the pawnshop, he was told that the item was fake and not worth much."

Shangguan Haitong corrected him: "If they haven't performed the ceremony, they are not considered husband and wife. Besides, that woman has nothing to do with him anymore."

With a look of disgust, Ruan Yi took a sip of tea and continued, "He came to propose marriage with nothing in his hands, without a single cheek. Fortunately, my sister reminded me, so I didn't step into the fire pit. If he comes again in the future, I will ask the servants to drive him away directly. It will save my family from dirtying the door lintel."

Shangguan Haitong took a sip of tea and said nothing.

Ruan Yi came closer: "Sister, I will only trust you from now on."

Shangguan Haitong smiled helplessly: "You should trust the Master. He is your father, so he will naturally choose a son-in-law who is worthy of you."

Shaking his head, Ruan Yi was a little unhappy: "How can that be possible? Yesterday, my father showed me a few portraits and asked me to pick one from them. They all looked ugly, how could I pick one? My father and I have different preferences, so I don't believe him."

The maidservant also spoke up for him: "Yes. One of them had lost his wife and wanted to marry a girl as his successor."

Huan Shuang was surprised: "No way? Master, do you think it's good?"

"More than just having an eye on him, the one he likes the most is that one. He's almost forty years old, with children. He's a captain of the police." Ruan Yi became more and more indignant as he spoke.

No matter what, she shouldn't deserve such conditions, right?

The maid was also angry: "Master said that when you are older, you will be more caring and that if you have children, you don't need to have them. Look at what he said."

Huanshuang was so shocked that her jaw dropped. As a father, is this how he cares about his daughter?

Shangguan Haitong sensed something was wrong: "Who is that captain?"

"My surname is Nian. I don't know my name. I won't get married, even if you kill me. Sister, please help me to plead for her." Ruan Yi acted coquettishly.

What a coincidence? Could it be that the guest I'm meeting today is...

Shangguan Haitong stood up: "Okay, I'll go and talk to you. Wait for my good news."

Ruan Yi quickly stood up and walked the man to the door. She looked from afar, waiting anxiously.

On the way to the hall.

Huan Shuang was puzzled: "Why did the Master choose a police chief? He is so old."

Shangguan Haitong had a vague guess in his mind: "Maybe there is something he can't tell you about."

main hall.

The people in the room were discussing something.

Shangguan Haitong walked in with a smile: "Master, something happened at home. I am here to say goodbye."

Master Ruan was surprised.

The captain turned around and looked over.

The moment he saw the man, Shangguan Haitong was certain. Captain Nian, no, perhaps it would be more accurate to call him General Nian.

Rumor has it that he disappeared in a battle. Some say he died, while others say he fled far away.

neither.

Instead, he returned to the capital and secretly stirred up trouble.

No wonder Nian Guiyun chose the third prince in his previous life, and had to choose the third prince.

The general and the imperial concubine were childhood sweethearts and had a very deep relationship.

Shangguan Haitong bowed and said, "I am very sorry to disturb you. I am Shangguan Haitong."

Captain Nian bowed and said, "My name is Nian. I have taken up too much of the teacher's time and delayed the girl's business."

Shangguan Haitong smiled and said, "Nian? What a special surname. It just so happens that my fourth brother met a classmate in the Imperial College, who also had the surname Nian. Nian Guiyun, I wonder if you know him? The teacher should have heard of him, after all, Instructor Wang took good care of him."
