Lin Feng lowered his head and twisted his clothes nervously. He didn't know when his eyes had turned red. He sobbed and confided his true feelings: "But, I'm still afraid... Woo woo, I really don't know what to do... My dear, I really don't want to be burned to death..."
"Who wants to burn you to death? Who dares to burn you to death?"
Lin Feng pursed his lips and muttered.
"That's what the storybook says."
Shen Tang raised his eyebrows: "Storybook? What storybook?"
Lin Feng blinked and stammered about a few books.
The core of the story seems to be carved out of the same mold—
The male protagonist is a poor but talented scholar from a poor family. He is a pure and clear-minded scholar of the second rank. The female protagonist is usually the daughter of the prime minister/emperor/powerful official. The male and female protagonists either admire each other or the girl pursues the boy, or the Yue family sees potential and wants to marry the girl off. The female villain is a "heretic" between heaven and earth. She has condensed literary and martial courage. A hen crowing at dawn will bring disaster. She is infatuated with the male protagonist, but she turns evil because she cannot get his love. In the end, she is punished/persuaded/burned/abandoned.
Shen Tang was speechless for a moment: "I thought that given your family's situation, it would be impossible for the women in the inner house to come into contact with that kind of storybook."
Lin Feng muttered: "But it looks very nice..."
The world in the story is strange and exciting, different from the inner courtyard where she has been running between two points all year round.
When she occasionally went out to play, she was surrounded by maids and servants, like a canary kept in a golden cage. Although she had no worries about food and clothing, once she lost the food and the protection of the exquisite and luxurious bird cage, she would not even be able to make a living.
Not only her, but also her mother, sisters, and close friends are like this.
She just likes to hear women in storybooks who are also talented and brave, dare to love and hate... even if these women don't have a good ending.
Shen Tang looked at Lin Feng, who had a young face but a bit of stubbornness and stubbornness between his eyebrows, and sighed: "You can't watch it for too long. The man in it is a toad wanting to eat swan meat, and he specializes in deceiving innocent and inexperienced young girls..."
After reading too many novels, I really thought this was a good man. If the cabbage ran away with a scumbag, the vegetable farmer would be so angry that he would vomit blood.
Lin Feng: “…”
It seems that her and Langjun have different priorities.
Shen Tang continued to persuade him: "We don't even know if the writer of the story has literary mind. How can a scholar who relies on imagination to fabricate the literary mind of the second-class scholar be like this? What's the difference between this and the Empress of the East Palace making pancakes and the Empress of the West Palace rolling green onions?"
Lin Feng thought: "It does make some sense."
Shen Tang continued: "I know a second-rank upper Wen Xin. Wu Hui was also like that before the accident. Can you bring him into the protagonist of the story? Will he do the things that the protagonist does?"
Lin Feng: “…”
If it were Mr. Chu...
She suddenly couldn't look directly at the scripts.
For a moment, I forgot about my worries about the future.
Shen Tang suddenly asked her: "Do you want to learn from Wu Hui? Actually, Yuan Liang is also fine, but I can't make the decision."
Chu Yao was nominally the person she bought, so it should be no problem to entrust him to teach a child, but Qi Shan's "guiding NPC" was different, and he might not have the patience to teach a female student. Most importantly, Chu Yao could help conceal it, but Qi Shan couldn't.
Lin Feng looked at her in surprise and nervousness.
"Of course I want to, but..."
"It's okay to think about it." Shen Tang interrupted her and said comfortingly, "Wu Hui and the others are not stubborn."
There is even rebellion in his bones.
Otherwise, Chu Yao would not have urged Shen Tang to explore how to raise pigs, and even did not stop her from riding pigs everywhere. Qi Shan did stop her once, but seeing that it was ineffective, he equipped the pigs with saddles and reins overnight.
It can be seen from this that—
The former is unorthodox, while the latter is flexible.
Lin Feng whispered, "Do you want to confess to the two gentlemen?"
Shen Tang: “…”
She originally planned to only confess the matter about Lin Feng to Chu Yao, and then Qi Shan would wait and see, but after Lin Feng asked her this, she felt it would be better to confess it all at once. Qi Shan's temperament could be seen from his scholarly ways - he could not tolerate even a grain of sand in his eyes.
Shen Tang nodded: "Well, be honest."
As for your gender—
Tsk, she never hid it at all.
Whether the two gentlemen can discover it or not has nothing to do with her.
After a good meal and a good drink, Zhai Le invited Gong Shuwu to go out for a fight. Gong Shuwu's talent was not as good as his, but his martial arts experience was much higher than his, so he still had a lot to learn from him.
As soon as the two left, Qi Shan and Chu Yao put down their wooden chopsticks tacitly.
Shen Tang, who was about to drink the soup, said: "..."
Qi Shan was staring at her from the left, Chu Yao was staring at her from the right, and Lin Feng, who was standing beside her, lowered his head and winked at her secretly.
Shen Tang: “…”
She felt a little difficult.
Qi Shan spoke first: "Young Master Shen, do you have anything to say?"
"How do you know?"
"Your feelings are written all over your face, how can I not know?"
Shen Tang coughed twice in embarrassment, put down the ceramic bowl, and wiped his mouth: "There is indeed one thing, but it is a little unbelievable. I hope you two gentlemen will not be too surprised, stay calm, and don't get excited..."
Qi Shan didn't even bother to raise his eyelashes and said, "Speak."
He knew very well that with Mr. Shen's ability to talk a lot, if he didn't say that, he would probably continue to talk nonsense for a long time.
Shen Tang: "Then I'll tell you."
After a while, Shen Tang said again: "I really said it."
Another three or four breaths passed: "I really said it..."
Qi Shan rubbed his brows with a headache: "You say!"
Shen Tang took Lin Feng's hand and happily informed the two: "I have great news to tell you - she is pregnant!"
Qishan: “…”
Chu Yao: “…”
Taking back what they said before, they couldn't help but be excited and surprised!
Qi Shan almost crushed the pottery bowl: "When did it happen?"
Shen Tang said: "Just these few days."
Lin Feng corrected in a low voice: "I found it this morning."
Chu Yao had a headache and propped his forehead with his hand. He lowered his voice and expressed some negative emotions: "Shen Youli, she is still in mourning!"
Shen Tang: “…”
etc-
Shen Tang reacted and explained awkwardly.
"I explained. I meant - she was angry."
Qi Shan smiled angrily: "If she dies, can she still stand?"
Shen Tang: “…”
Looking at the two faces with highly overlapping expressions, Shen Tang felt tremendous pressure and swallowed nervously.
"The qi I'm talking about is the qi of heaven and earth."
Qi Shan sneered: "Empty courtesy is useless!"
Shen Tang: “…”
Chu Yao: “…”
Qishan: “…”
Wait, what is qi
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room fell into an unprecedented cold and terrifying state. Suddenly, Chu Yao and Qi Shan stood up at the same time, locked the door at the same time, and sat back in their seats at the same time. Qi Shan even raised his hand and cast a spell to prevent eavesdropping, "This method cannot be passed on to six ears."
Qi Shan looked at Lin Feng and asked, "Boy?"
Shen Tang whispered, "Female."
"No joke?"
"No, it's absolutely true!"
Chu Yao also asked: "Is it really the energy of heaven and earth?"
"It's more real than pearls. I checked it out."
Qi Shan remained silent and waved to Lin Feng, asking her to come over.
Under Shen Tang's encouraging gaze, Lin Feng stepped forward bravely, raised his hand and unskillfully drew out a very weak wisp of "qi".
Although it is very faint, it does exist.
Qi Shan and the other two: "..."
The question now is not to investigate why Lin Feng can absorb the energy of heaven and earth into his body, but to investigate what led to this result.
