Li Tianzong looked at the many women and felt their inner tension and anticipation. He couldn't help but sigh. These were all poor girls. If possible, how could he not rescue them all. Li Tianzong said calmly, "We already have the exam results just now. Unfortunately, only two girls have made it to the next round." He didn't say anything comforting, as he had another way to comfort the girls. Li Tianzong pointed to the painting table in front of him and said, "I just made a painting as a gift for everyone to commemorate
There was a hint of softness in the nervous eyes of the girls.
The envoy of the sect said, "Why don't you quickly thank Young Master Li for his gift!" Li Tianzong waved his hand and interrupted, "There's no need to be too polite." The envoy immediately changed his face and smiled, "Young Master, you're so kind
Li Tian ignored him and raised his voice, saying, "The two girls who will enter the next round are Wan'er and Xiyun
A gust of cold air echoed throughout the hall, and the girls looked at Xiyun and Wan'er with envy and jealousy, but they all had one thing in common - a sense of melancholy and sadness. They still have to waste their time in the workshop and not see the light of day.
Wan'er was stunned, as if she had lost her soul. She opened her mouth slightly and her eyes didn't blink. Xiyun next to her was not much better, immersed in immense joy as she and Wan'er both advanced! Li Gongzi did not notice the cheating just now!
Sister, did I hear you correctly? Is Li Gongzi really talking about us? "Wan'er's little face turned red and she suddenly looked at Xiyun, her eyes filled with incredible joy.
Sister, it's really us! "Xi Yun's smile was as beautiful as a flower, and her eyes were misty:" It's really us, it's really us
Wan'er's eyes also turned red, and her pretty face was full of laughter. She was almost so happy that she fainted. Just as she was about to cheer, she suddenly remembered something and lost all joy! In the blink of an eye, her flushed face turned like a blank piece of paper. Wan'er hesitated and said, "Sister, Sister Cui'er said that Li Gongzi only took one person away
Xiyun was taken aback for a moment and then said with a straight face, "Sister, don't think about anything now. Everything is up to Young Master Li to decide! But let's make one thing clear: whoever is ultimately chosen by Young Master Li must not act recklessly and must leave the sect office obediently and happily. Do you know
Sister... "Wan'er nodded with tears in her eyes," I understand
Xiyun, Wan'er, what are you two whispering about over there! "The voice of the sect envoy came, and he was slightly angry," Young Master Li has called you several times! Do you not want to go with him
Xiyun quickly stood up and looked at Li Tianzong, saying, "Young master, forgive me! Just now, Wan'er and I were overwhelmed by joy and didn't hear what Young master said for a while. Please forgive me!" Wan'er also hurriedly stood up and said, "I hope Young master can forgive me
Do I look so cruel? "Li Tian chuckled after speaking, looked at Xiyun, then at Wan'er, nodded and said," Come with me. "He walked away with his hands crossed first.
Under the complex gazes of everyone, Xiyun and Wan'er left the case and walked into the back hall.
Sister, wait a minute! "Xiyun grabbed Wan'er who was about to enter the hall, straightened her clothes, and straightened her slightly messy bun before smiling and saying," Okay. "Then Wan'er also tidied up Xiyun.
The layout of the back hall is simple, with a tea table and chairs in the center, and several pairs of wooden chairs below. Li Tianzong, dressed in a brocade and white shirt, sat in the main seat, leaning half against the chair, leisurely drinking tea. He saw the two people come in and reached out with a smile, saying, "Please sit down, two girls
Xiyun and Wan'er were both flattered and frightened, even daring to say, what identities are they, how can they sit down! The two of them thought Li Tianzong was joking with them.
Let you sit down, don't be shy, "Li Tianzong shook his head and smiled. Seeing that the two were still hesitating, he put down his tea bowl and stood up." If you want to stand, then I'll stand too
In this way, Xiyun and Wan'er had to hastily sit down, sitting upright and not daring to show any disrespect.
Li Tianzong sat down again and looked at the two girls. They are all only sixteen years old and have very immature faces. If they were in their past lives, they could only be considered little kids; However, in ancient times, they were already adults, and if they had good luck, they might even have children. Perhaps they are very mentally mature, but sixteen is still sixteen years old. Both of them are still developing physically, with only a small bulge on their chests, like a green apple.
Li Tianzong looked up and down, and both women were very shy, especially Wan'er, whose head was lowered to her chest.
Xiyun stole a glance at Wan'er next to him, smiled inwardly, and then sighed. With Wan'er's personality, can it be reassuring to sell her laughter in a brothel? She is not good at poetry herself, yet she must be so simple. How can she handle being a courtesan outside? Look at Li Gongzi, gentle and approachable, who even allowed them to sit down! Being his maid, I will definitely not be subjected to any compromise. If I serve him well in the future and win his favor, I might even be taken as a concubine! What a great home.
Thinking of this, Xiyun's eyes froze. Let her be the courtesan of the brothel!
Who is Xiyun and who is Wan'er? "Li Tianzong asked.
Wan'er respectfully said, "Hui Gongzi, the slave is Wan'er." Xiyun said arrogantly, "I am Xiyun
Li Tian looked vertically at Xiyun and saw her with willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes, with a charming charm on her face. With time, she would definitely be a stunning beauty; Looking at Wan'er again, she has clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, delicate and delicate, with a cute and lovely appearance of a small family jade.
The two girls answered the exam papers very well, especially the last question, "Li Tianzong took a sip of tea and smiled at Xiyun," That's also why you stood out
Wan'er let out a slight doubt; But Xiyun's face changed. Li Gongzi's words seemed to be a pun. Did he see them before? If so, why did he choose them? Xiyun looked up and saw Li Tianzong looking at her unexpectedly, even blinking at her.
Xiyun quickly looked elsewhere, afraid to make eye contact with Li Tianzong, feeling very flustered.
Young master, do you mean that I answered the brain teaser question correctly? "Wan'er asked cautiously. Li Tianzong smiled without answering, and Xiyun looked at Wan'er with a smile and said, "That's really right
How long have the two girls been in the teaching workshop? "Li Tianzong asked.
Xiyun immediately replied, "Wan'er and I entered the Education Bureau at the age of seven and have been there for nine years now
Next, Li Tianzong asked many questions about them, most of which were answered by Xiyun in a very arrogant tone, which made Wan'er repeatedly give her glances while Li Tianzong was drinking tea.
Wan'er doesn't understand why her always smart sister is so rude in front of Li Gongzi. If she makes Li Gongzi angry, what should she do... Ah! Wan'er's eyes widened and she suddenly thought of a possibility. Sister Xiyun was deliberately provoking Li Gongzi's anger, so that he could take her away!
Looking towards Xiyun next to her, I saw her pouting slightly, appearing very stubborn. Wan'er couldn't help remembering that when she joined the religious sect at the beginning of that year, she was often bullied because of her cowardice until she met Xiyun, and they became sisters. Under the protection of Xiyun, she had never been bullied again.
All along, Sister Xiyun has always sheltered her from wind and rain, letting her eat first when there is something delicious, and letting her wear new clothes first! On the other hand, it seems that she has never done anything for her sister... Now that this lifelong maid position is at stake, Sister Xiyun is also trying her best to give it to her!
If she abandons Sister Xiyun and leaves the Education Bureau alone, is she still human?
Just as Wan'er was both moved and self blaming, Li Tianzong said, "Wan'er and Xiyun, I am quite satisfied with both of you. It's really hard to choose. Who should I take away
Under the slightly startled gaze of Xiyun, Wan'er stood up and said, "Young master..." Her tone was timid, and she hesitated for a moment before finally summoning up her courage: "I don't know if it's possible, young master, to redeem the slave together with Xiyun?" Without waiting for anyone's reaction, she quickly added, "We will definitely take good care of young master! We can do laundry, cooking, relieve boredom, and serve in the bedroom, anything! Please have mercy, young master!" Wan'er knelt down and knelt down on the ground.
Upon hearing Li Gongzi's words, Xiyun couldn't help but feel some beautiful longing. He quickly knelt down and pleaded, "Please have mercy, Gongzi
Li Tian leaned against the tea table with his left hand supporting his face and said, "Get up first." The two women lifted their heads and remained kneeling. Li Tianzong looked at the pitiful Wan'er with great interest and said, "Why did you have to redeem both of you for a reason
Xiyun was about to answer, but was stopped by Li Tianzong and said, "Let Miss Wan'er speak." Xiyun's heart tightened, and she looked at Wan'er next to her. Silly sister, you must answer cleverly! People who can come up with 'brain teasers' will never be moved by ordinary rhetoric.
Wan'er was so nervous that her face was red, and her forehead was slightly sweating. In her opinion, their sisters' happiness was now undoubtedly in her hands, and it was up to her to persuade Mr. Li! Calm down, calm down. She wanted to suppress her nervous thoughts, but her heart and soul were still pounding. After brewing for a while, she trembled slightly and said, "Young master, I and Xiyun will serve you well! I and I are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, singing and dancing, and will definitely satisfy you
Li Tianzong smiled and said, "Wan'er, I want to ask you, which girl outside the hall doesn't know how to serve people, and which one isn't good at singing and dancing?" Wan'er was stunned and didn't know how to answer. Li Tianzong said calmly, "Your reasons don't make me agree
Xiyun sighed secretly. Wan'er's simple nature made her clever, but it was difficult for her.
Upon hearing this, Wan'er became anxious and panicked, saying, "But young master, the two of you will truly devote yourself wholeheartedly..." Li Tianzong waved his hand, and Wan'er couldn't help but lower her head in frustration. She looked at Xiyun next to her, who gave her a comforting and gentle smile. Her eyes made Wan'er's heart tremble. Despite being treated so well by her sister, she couldn't even persuade young master Li, and wasted their happiness for nothing!
What should we do? How can we convince Mr. Li!?
