Early the next morning, Ji Xuemian was woken up by the mess outside the bedroom.

This time he slept until the sun was shining, he pushed open the door, and the scenery of the Imperial College in front of him was the same as in his memory.

The intense sickness last night has been slightly relieved, at least I can walk normally, and my heart will not hurt anymore.

It has to be said that although the medicine is bitter, it is effective, but Ji Xuemian can't feel relieved when he thinks that he will drink it for many years to come.

Speaking of the damn medicine, I don't know how long Duan Qi stayed late, but it was gone this morning.

The moment Ji Xuemian thought of him, he felt the corners of his lips burning, and his ears turned red.

For no other reason, Duan Qichi obviously didn't do anything, just kept kissing him with excuses, but he was as crazy as if he was going to eat him, reluctant to let go, kissed so many times, could it be because Ji Xuemian was seriously ill , No time to beat him up!

Ji Xuemian touched the corner of her lips with her hand, and as expected, it hurt a little, and the skin felt a little thinner.

He walked towards the Sifang Jintai where the school taught, and heard the voices of boys talking in the distance.

"...Do you know that the Emperor is going down quickly this morning, and the emperor is filling the Sixth Palace?"

"Really? I want to see it too!"

"See what's the use, and it's not for you to choose! Both the queen mother and the regent have gone, maybe if they see something good, they will become the regent princess directly!"

Princess Regent?

Ji Xuemian stood quietly with her hands behind her back, listening to the students chatting.

Seriously, what kind of woman can stand up to Duan Qichi?

Ji Xuemian gritted her teeth secretly, no...it shouldn't be a woman, Duan Qichi is a broken sleeve, he only loves men, this is probably the regent's unknown hobby.

"But I heard that the emperor still likes men? Isn't there a pet named Xue Gongzi?"

"That's right, there is indeed a male concubine in the selection of concubines this time! And the eyes are all red and phoenix eyes, which is also strange..."

"Hey, Mr. Xue has been locked up in the cold palace by the regent. I guess the emperor is tired of it and wants a substitute!"

A little girl timidly asked: "Brothers, can you tell me how to write these words..."

The teenagers were very unhappy when she interrupted: "Why are you so stupid?"

"It's really the spoiled little lady of the General's Mansion. She doesn't know a single word. Why don't you go home and serve as a soldier!"

The little girl puffed up her cheeks angrily, "You are not allowed to bully me, when I grow up to be a female general, I will beat you so badly!"

The three boys let out shocking laughter, and tears came out.

The little girl seemed to have suffered a lot of humiliation, tears were in her eyes, and she couldn't let them fall when she wandered around.

Ji Xuemian coughed lightly, attracting the attention of the four children.

"This gentleman is so unfamiliar, why haven't I seen him before?"

"Is it the new Taifu?"

"Are you the Mr. Xue in the cold palace?"

The little girl wiped her tears and watched Ji Xuemian approaching, standing in front of the three boys in a lonely and handsome figure, she opened her eyes curiously.

Ji Xuemian was expressionless, and said in a cold voice: "Put out your palm."

The three boys froze.

"Why...why should I listen to you?"

"Are you going to hit us!"

"Why are you so arrogant, who are you!"

Ji Xuemian's voice was not loud, but his tone was very strict, and he said lightly, "Discussing the emperor's right and wrong behind his back is a violation of Article [-] of the Guozijian Regulations, and he will be punished with twenty hands. For bullying classmates, he will be fined ten hands. There are thirty hands in total. I will punish you for you." Fu did the job."

"Why?"

"You—I'm going to tell my brother!"

"I won't let you fight, how do you treat?"

Ji Xuemian frowned lightly, and before he could get angry, he saw three Taifus and a few staff members running over, waving while running, and shouting anxiously: "Master Shoufu, don't be angry, don't be angry!"

The four children looked at each other with fearful faces.

"Master Chief Assistant!"

"Is he... the emperor's master that the emperor talks about every day?"

"It turns out that Mr. Di Shi is so good-looking!"

The four children only watched the majestic and dignified Taifus knelt down one after another, apologizing to the cold-faced and silent emperor.

"Ji Shoufu, don't be angry, we only found out this morning that you have returned to the Imperial College, and it was late to greet you!"

"You're still sick, don't get angry, it's up to me to beat hands, I hope you forgive me!"

Ji Xuemian was not angry, and he was not embarrassed when he heard what they said, so he hummed.

The tutors began to beat hands without saying a word, and the three mischievous boys grinned and begged for mercy after being beaten.

Ji Xuemian walked up to the little girl and knelt down slowly.

The little girl looked at him stupidly, "Are you also... a teacher?"

Ji Xuemian couldn't help but chuckled and nodded, "Which character can't you write?"

Seeing how gentle he was, the little girl gradually let go of her guard and pointed to a few words, "I can't write for several days, can the teacher teach me?"

Ji Xuemian said hello, then held her hand, and wrote slowly, one stroke at a time, neat and clean, the fonts were like squares, there was no need to make a grid, it seemed like a copybook that could be copied directly.

The little girl's soft hands were trembling, she didn't know what she was afraid of, so Ji Xuemian lowered her tone and asked her, "Are you nervous?"

The little girl shook her head first, thought for a while, and then nodded, "Teacher, I have a secret, can you not tell others, and quietly throw it away for me?"

Ji Xuemian didn't quite understand, but still agreed to her: "Tell me."

The little girl took out a palm-sized safety clasp from the sachet, the style was very unique, but there were two entangled snakes engraved on the jade surface, which was very strange and beautiful.

"I recited this by myself in the Imperial Garden last night. I came back late and picked it up outside the gate of the Imperial College."

As Ji Xuemian weighed the safety buckle, an ominous omen came to his mind.

This pair of snake safety buttons should not appear in the Imperial College, to be precise, such obscene/evil things should not appear in the palace.

When Ji Xuemian was away, the Guozijian was calm.Ji Xuemian was here last night, so someone is in a hurry to throw this thing away?

What is that man thinking?

Ji Xuemian picked it up calmly, put it in the sleeve, touched the little girl's head, and comforted her: "It's okay, it's just a small toy, I lost it for you, don't tell others, okay?"

The little girl nodded vigorously, "Then I'm going to class, can the teacher accompany me? I have too many books, can't I carry them alone?"

Ji Xuemian has nothing to do, since today is Xuanwo's concubine selection, he will stay at the Imperial College, so it's good not to disturb her.

Seeing that Ji Xuemian had finally returned from southern Xinjiang, it was the first time he had stepped into the Imperial College after a long time, and almost the entire Imperial College was alarmed.

Therefore, the tutors who had classes today were extremely nervous, afraid of being picked out by Ji Xuemian, they kept coughing, and glanced at Ji Xuemian who was sitting in the corner listening to the class from time to time.

Ji Xuemian seldom attended the prison hall. He used to serve as the head of the Imperial Academy's ministers, and later became the emperor's teacher, and then served as the chief assistant.

The current old Jijiu followed Ji Xuemian for a day, and he was very happy to see Ji Xuemian. Ji Xuemian exchanged pleasantries with him, and the gloom in his heart also improved a lot.

In addition, he had a good night's sleep after taking the medicine last night, and even the Lingyin who chased him to the Imperial College to give him the medicine seemed much more pleasing to the eye.

Lingyin walked over quickly, her face was full of worry, "Sir, are you okay?"

Ji Xuemian comforted him, "He's still alive, not dead yet."

Lingyin smiled very ugly, as if she was about to cry, "That's good! I made the servants worry all night! No, today I listened to Li Yuyi's prescription and boiled a pot of medicine, so I will send it here! "

Ji Xuemian smelled the medicine, closed her eyes, frowned, and drank it breathlessly, it took a long time to calm down the bitter water in her stomach.

He wanted to vomit, but he couldn't vomit, so he had to suppress it.

Lingyin said again: "By the way, Li Yuyi also said that he must explain one thing to Mr. personally, and no one is allowed to listen in. He said that your body has special symptoms, and I don't know what to say. .I wonder when sir will be free?"

Ji Xuemian pondered for a while, what could be the special symptom?Still can't tell others to hear?

Could it be that he was really going to die, and Li Yuyi was afraid of stabbing Lou Zi, so he didn't say it in front of Duan Qichi?

"The day after tomorrow, I may have a lot of things to do these two nights." Ji Xuemian was worried, Xuan Wo chose a concubine to enter the palace today, and as his teacher, he must give some advice.

The time for exhortations should not be too long, otherwise it would be bad for the aunts to wait for the emperor and concubine to go to bed.

This day's classes were long, until the evening, when the Imperial College started night classes, among which, several little princesses and princes stopped writing, and just passed notes there.

All the tutors went to eat, and Ji Xuemian was not hungry, so he sat in the prison hall.

He caught a glimpse of the small movements of the children, patted the table with a wooden ruler, and said in a stern tone, "What are you passing on? Take it here!"

"Teacher has such a big temper, even I'm afraid, so you're not afraid of scaring them?" A deep, teasing voice came, and Duan Qichi leaned on the door frame, looking at him with a smile that was not a smile.

He is wearing a graceful and gorgeous light brocade suit, with handsome hair and narrow eyes that are full of energy. Against his flawless and handsome face, he is like a noble and proud person in the painting.

Ji Xuemian thought to himself, thinking it was today's general election, everyone gave him a lot of prestige, otherwise why would he be in such a good mood?

"It has nothing to do with you." In front of the students, Ji Xuemian didn't want to distract them, so he didn't call him the regent.

The corners of Duan Qichi's lips curled up slightly, "Then I won't bother you, teacher, please continue."

Although there was such a person looking at him brightly, it didn't delay Ji Xuemian's training. Several mischievous students were punished by him with a book each, with frowning faces.

Seeing that the students were always looking at Duan Qichi, Ji Xuemian thought they were not in the mood to read any more, so he drove them away.

After the students left, Duan Qichi finally stopped pretending and walked over slowly, "It's such a quiet class, Xue Mian, you are amazing."

Ji Xuemian didn't even look at him, and said, "My lord, can I see Xuanwo today, is there anyone he likes?"

Duan Qichi watched him arrange the books on the stage, then sat on the table in front of him, tilted his head and thought for a while, "There seems to be a few of them, and he likes them quite a bit. That's right, no matter if he chooses a man or a woman, one of them is more One like you is really worrying."

Ji Xuemian stopped moving, "Whose family has the queen chosen?"

"The eldest girl in Duke Luo's mansion was chosen by the queen mother herself." Thinking of something, Duan Qichi smiled, "I don't know what the queen mother heard, but she insisted on giving me a few men, each of whom is prettier than the other. Refused."

Ji Xuemian was imagining that scene, and probably the empress dowager couldn't hold her face any longer. After thinking about it, Ji Xuemian still asked, "You...you seem to be in a good mood?"

"Is it obvious?" Duan Qichi stood behind him and saw that he had tidied up, so he leaned over and grabbed his hand, "I'm really in a good mood. During the general election, I saw that Xuanwo was very entangled, and I didn't know which one to choose. Good. And I am happy to have you by my side."

Ji Xuemian happened to be holding a wooden ruler in his hand, upon hearing this, even though there was no one around, he returned his hand and tapped his arm: "Be more serious."

Duan Qichi didn't blink, just grabbed the wooden ruler, and said slowly: "Back then, I was only concerned about being beaten by the Taifu. I don't know what it's like to be hit by the Taifu?"

While talking, Duan Qichi patted Ji Xuemian's buttocks mercilessly. The strength was not too small, and he made a clear voice.

Ji Xuemian was stunned and froze, "Stop it! This is the Imperial College!"

"Ah, I'm sorry, I forgot that Tai Tuo used wooden rulers instead of hands." Duan Qichi shrugged, turned his head to find a wooden ruler, and made a gesture to hit him again.

There was a smile in his eyes, as if he wanted to tease him.

Ji Xuemian coughed a few times, grabbed the wooden ruler, "I warn you, if you want to fight with me, go out and fight, don't mess around in class!"

"Teacher," Duan Qichi called him intentionally, "You are so strict. I saw you admonishing others just now, and my mind was filled with the way you beat me with the hand. It's so scary."

"Then I'll teach you a lesson for the Grand Tutor." Ji Xuemian narrowed his eyes, and slapped Duan Qichi on the back of his hand very quickly, "If you mess around in the school, you have to sit up and sit up and down fifty times."

The back of Duan Qichi's hand suddenly turned red, but he was not angry. He took Ji Xuemian's hand and kissed his fingertips, "Can I choose another way of punishment?"

Ji Xuemian looked at each other coldly: "What?"

Duan Qichi couldn't help but put him on the table, put it close to his ear, and smelled the familiar sweet fragrance as he wished, "I got up and sat up [-] times, and the teacher stayed on me and helped me count the [-] times. "

Ji Xuemian thought for a while before realizing what absurd words he was talking about!

Duan Qichi lowered his head and kissed the corner of his lips, blocking the anger he was about to utter.

Until Ji Xuemian was speechless, Duan Qichi leisurely said, "I haven't seen you all day, I've been thinking about you."

"...What nonsense are you talking about!" Ji Xuemian's ear tip was rubbed by him, and it turned red in an instant, "What do you want me to do?"

Duan Qichi whispered in his ear, "I think they are not as good-looking as you, I think Xuanwo can marry a concubine in a fair way, but I can't marry you."

Ji Xuemian narrowed his eyes and said, "If you dare to marry me, I will run away from marriage."

"Really?" Duan Qichi sighed, "If you don't want to, then I have no choice but to imprison you in the palace and not allow you to take half a step. You can only look at me all day and all night."

Ji Xuemian simply struggled, grabbed Duan Qichi by the collar, and scolded him, "If there is such a day... no, it is impossible to have that day."

"Not necessarily, I'm afraid it's you who begged me to see you when the time comes." Duan Qichi looked at him condescendingly, as if looking at his possessions, "Because I will prevent you from seeing anyone but me, Concentrate on giving me a baby."

Ji Xuemian turned her head away, "Impossible, get up! Now that we are living in such peace, I will let you kiss if I want to...Aren't you satisfied?"

"I'm not satisfied, I'm very greedy, you haven't fully agreed to marry me yet." Duan Qichi seemed very embarrassed, "Why don't we try to marry a son?"

Ji Xuemian started beating him without saying a word, but Duan Qichi hugged him tightly in his arms, and carried him to the rockery beside the pool outside the Imperial Prison.

Along the way, the maids lowered their heads and ran away quickly, blushing.

Ji Xuemian put her head under his clothes, her face was redder than the girls, and she glared at Duan Qichi angrily.

Duan Qichi told him in a low voice: "Don't talk, if someone finds out who you are, how can you explain it?"

Sure enough, the court ladies outside the rockery whispered: "Hey, I just saw the regent walking away so fast with a girl in his arms!"

"It is estimated that during the day the regent also took a fancy to the girl he likes, and snatched her back to the palace, right?"

"It's a pity, I don't know how many people who admire him are going to cry..."

Duan Qichi had an expression of "You see, I'm right", Ji Xuemian leaned against the rockery, and his shoulder blades hurt from the rough rocks.

Duan Qichi thought of something, and lifted his collar, "This tattoo is really good, with this, you will always be mine."

Ji Xuemian didn't want him to talk, so she covered his mouth, and after all the maids had passed, Duan Qichi pulled him into the deep depression of the rockery.

The deep part of the rockery was cool at first, but now it was terribly hot.

Duan Qichi smiled and said, "I deliberately chose such a secluded place, waiting for the teacher to punish me for sitting up five hundred times."

Ji Xuemian's face was blushing, being pulled by him, her hands could not help doing what he begged, "I said it casually, why do you take it seriously?"

"I'm a serious person, Si Ling, you've known me for so many years, you should have known it long ago." Duan Xichi tapped his forehead, and said in a soft voice: "Five hundred times, count it."

"Maybe more, never less." Duan Qichi hugged him and said with a smile.

Ji Xuemian didn't want to listen to his nonsense anymore, so she covered his mouth, blushing and heart beating.
