Chapter 41
"Proposing marriage? To whom?"

Jiang Qi smiled and asked knowingly.

"Brother Jiang!"

Zhu Yingtai blushed half of her face and said angrily: "Brother Jiang, why do you ask questions when you know it? Of course it is."

"Liang Shanbo"

Zhu Yingtai said the last three words in a voice as small as a mosquito, and Jiang Qi almost didn't hear it.

"So it is."

Jiang Qi looked like he suddenly realized it, and then said in a somewhat embarrassed tone: "But marriage proposals are always the result of parents' orders to the matchmaker. I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate, right?"

"But I can't find anyone else."

Zhu Yingtai sighed: "Brother Jiang should understand that I disguised myself as a man and went out to study, which already made my family unhappy. If this happens again, I'm afraid..."

"Forget it, in that case, I will help Brother Zhu."

Jiang Qi took the jade ring from Zhu Yingtai's hand, looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "After all, I am just a young man, and it is somewhat inappropriate to propose marriage."

"But since I promised you, I won't break my promise. How about I ask an elder in the family to be the matchmaker for you?"

"It's wonderful to be so natural."

Zhu Yingtai breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. She didn't know what happened today, but she felt an extremely urgent feeling in her heart.

It seemed that if he hesitated and struggled any longer, Liang Shanbo would finally leave him completely.

When Jiang Qi was found, he was also urgently ill and sought medical treatment.

But now it seems that the results are pretty good.

Jiang Qinai is the son of the Jun Cheng family. The elder he invited must also be a rich or noble person. Naturally, he is qualified to act as a matchmaker for her, so as to keep everyone quiet.

"Brother Zhu, just wait a moment and I'll send a message home."

Jiang Qi smiled and said: "As the saying goes, it is better to demolish ten temples than break up one marriage. Since Brother Zhu is prepared, it is better to make the trip as soon as possible."

"Excuse me, Brother Jiang!"

Zhu Yingtai bowed deeply and thanked her.

"It doesn't matter, this can be regarded as accumulating merit."

Jiang Qi smiled and nodded.

Regarding the matter between Liang Zhu and Ma Wencai, Jiang Qi originally made up his mind to just watch, but after learning about the entanglement between the three people, he no longer had the intention to intervene and change it.

But eating melons, how can you feel comfortable participating in it?

If Jiang Qi remembered correctly, it was Liang and Zhu's mistress who proposed the marriage, but Jiang Qi had been in the academy for a while and had never heard of such a person.

After watching Zhu Yingtai leave, Jiang Qi put away the jade ring in his hand and took out a messenger talisman that could lead directly to the goddess temple.

"Auntie, we have something to discuss."

Jiang Qi gave a general summary of what happened, in a nutshell: If you have something to eat and can participate, come quickly!

Not long after, Jiang Qi received a reply from his aunt.

After Jiang Qi glanced at the reply, he nodded with satisfaction. Sure enough, eating melons is a human instinct.

Even Taiyi Zhenxian, who has been watching for a long time, is no exception.

Jiang Qi wandered back to the school, facing Zhu Yingtai's expectant eyes, Jiang Qi smiled and nodded slightly.

Zhu Yingtai immediately felt relieved.

Time soon came to the afternoon, and the lecturer of this class was Liu Yanchang.

Since what happened last time, Liu Yanchang's reputation among the academy's masters has been somewhat poor.

If it weren't for Liu Yanchang's real ability, he would have been expelled from the academy long ago as long as he took the exam.

Among the scholars of this era, what Liu Yanchang did at the gate of the academy was completely rude.

"In this class, we talk about the Spring and Autumn Period."

Liu Yanchang looked around the audience. From his perspective, Jiang Qi still looked depressed, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.

This made Liu Yanchang feel extremely happy.

I calmed down and started teaching.

The class was not finished, probably only halfway through, when there was a knock on the door of the school.

Master Chu, the dean of the academy, stood at the door, waving to Liu Yanchang.

Liu Yanchang hurriedly stopped his lecture and hurried forward to greet him. "Jun Cheng's sister is coming to our academy."

Master Chu said straight to the point: "Yan Chang, please stay away."

"What do you mean, Dean?"

Liu Yanchang was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing, and his expression turned uglier. Master Chu continued to say, "The sister of the Jun Cheng was the one who was at the gate of the academy last time."

"...the students know."

Liu Yanchang took a deep breath, suppressed the depression in his heart, forced a smile and nodded.

"Don't think too much. Once you pass the examination, everything will be fine."

Master Chu comforted him, and then said: "Yan Chang, although gentle ladies and gentlemen are very polite, it's better not to be too vain."

The implication is, stop dreaming.

"Students know, thank you, Dean, for reminding me."

Liu Yanchang could no longer hold his nerve, but he still maintained his last dignity.

"Well, let's stop here for this lesson."

"Yes, students, go and clean up."

Liu Yanchang forced a smile, but when Master Chu turned around, his face turned ugly.

Damn!

Liu Yanchang suppressed his anger, silently returned to the school to tidy up, and then announced that school would be dismissed early.

Although many students didn't understand, they still stood up and left with some cheers.

Only Ma Wencai and Liang Shanbo had some regrets.

The latter really loves to study, while the former has to go home early and loses a period of time studying with Brother Liang.

With Zhu Yingtai looking expectant and anxious, she also left with everyone.

Jiang Qi gave her a "leave it to me" look.

The gate of the academy.

Yang Chan got off the sedan, with only Zhilan, the maid, behind her.

In front of the academy, Master Chu and Jiang Qi were already waiting.

"aunt."

Jiang Qi stepped forward to salute and handed over a jade ring.

"Ah."

Yang Chan nodded with a smile, exchanged a few words with Master Chu, and then said with a smile: "To be honest, Master, I came here to see how Qi'er is studying, and also to have some happy events."

"Oh? May I ask, madam, what is your happy event?"

Master Chu said with some doubts.

"There is a student named Liang Shanbo in your academy?"

"Exactly, Shan Bo is serious, hard-working and talented. He is a rare seed for reading."

"That's right, I was entrusted by someone to be a matchmaker for Liang Shanbo."

Yang Chan said with a smile.

"Is that so?"

Master Chu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Liang Shanbo, who came from a poor family, to be able to ask the Jun Cheng's sister to act as a matchmaker for him?
Whose woman is this attracted to?

Although Master Chu was confused, there was no need to stop this matter of adult beauty. He immediately asked Yang Chan to wait in the academy while he went to call Liang Shanbo.

When a group of people walked through the bamboo forest, Jiang Qi glanced at a remote corner, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

After a few people left, a man emerged from the corner, it was Liu Yanchang.

He looked at the retreating figures of several people with an expression of obsession.

After a long time, as if he had made up his mind, he took out a pearl as big as his thumb from his arms.

Then Liu Yanchang carefully brought the pearl to his mouth.

"Shi Niang, come to the academy."
