Zhao Zhi carried her to the bed and lowered the bed curtains to let her have a good rest.
He put the books back on the shelves as they were before and then when he saw her messy desk, he tidied it up for her.
Fine sheets of paper were scattered all over the place with the marks of her daily and nightly writing practice.
Zhao Zhi randomly picked up a few sheets of paper, but when he caught sight of the character Wei, written very carefully and seriously, his face could not help but turn somber.
Chapter 157
(56.4)
Ming Zhu still had feelings for Wei Chiyu.
More than once, Zhao Zhi had heard her calling Wei Chiyu’s name in her dreams.
He crumpled the fine paper into a ball and threw it into the fire with a cold face. It was really a deep childhood love, even after so long, it still remained unforgettable.
That word Wei was like a thorn in Zhao Zhi’s heart. He was afraid that he would lose control of his emotions and become angry with her again, so for the next three days he had to reduce on purpose the time he spent with her.
There were examinations going on, and Zhao Zhi was the main examiner, so he was quite busy. Every day, he had to go to the examination room to supervise the examination, and at night he had to read the papers. He had stayed up for two entire nights, his eyes were painful from all the reading.
After this round of examinations, there was a written test without any length-limit. The questions were very simple, they only needed to write an essay.
He had not seen many amazing written essays, but he had instead caught a few cheating candidates.
But there were still some results, Zhao Zhi read a political essay with good literary talent and decisiveness. The name inscribed on the article was unfamiliar, it was probably someone he had never heard of, with an unfamiliar face.
Zhao Zhi deliberately wrote down the name of this person, so that he would specifically go and have a look at the person during the second test.
However, at first glance, he recognized the person.
Gu Shuyi felt that she had failed to disguise herself well as a man. She felt that the crown prince had already seen through her, but she had to continue to write her essay as if nothing had happened.
Zhao Zhi’s finger lightly tapped on her desk and he said expressionlessly, “Your essay is well written.”
Gu Shuyi tensed up when she heard his voice. Before she could say anything, the crown prince had already walked away.
It was Gu Shuyi’s grandfather himself who had taught her political theory, thus her level was not only good, it was almost comparable to that of a first laureate.
She had done that on a moment of impulsiveness. When she heard that the crown prince was going to be the examiner, she ventured to take the exam. Like a peacock, she was somewhat proud of her essay.
She also wanted to show him that she really wasn’t bad.
Gu Shuyi didn’t expect that she could hide this little trick of hers from him, it was good that he recognized her, at least it would make him look at her twice.
She was not totally ignorant, the first time she had seen saw the crown prince, the gaze he used to look at her was different. He had good feelings towards her.
Gu Shuyi couldn’t help but let her imagination run wild whenever she thought about the way the crown prince had looked at her that evening.
After the exam was over, when she came out of the examination room, Gu Shuyi was then invited over by the crown prince’s people.
Zhao Zhi returned to her the two political essays she had written, “Miss Gu, if you want to take part in the examinations, you don’t have to do it like this.”
There was no explicit rule that women were not allowed to take the examinations.
Gu Shuyi was a bit alarmed, “Your Highness, I ……”
Zhao Zhi moved his eyes away from her, “I’ll have someone escort you back, I’m sure Lord Gu doesn’t want to see you fooling around like this.”
If other people found out… it was not a minor offense.
Gu Shuyi had never seen him look so cold, she was so scared she did not know what to do. Her eyes immediately turned red, her appearance was weak and fragile, and she looked really pitiful.
Zhao Zhi, who had moved his eyes away, did not look at her.
She looked like her, but that was it.
***
These past few days, Ming Zhu had a minor illness, but fortunately it was not serious, she coughed and slept a lot.
Zhao Zhi dismissed several maids, and took a few little palace maidservants who knew how to serve people properly and ordered them to take good care of her.
He didn’t show up during the day, but he would go to her room at night to check on her and touch her face, he would only feel relieved when he saw that she had not gotten thinner.
Ming Zhu knew nothing about this and even the maids in her courtyard maids did not know of this matter.
The days went by, one after the other.
Ming Zhu’s belly was now showing that she was pregnant, she really couldn’t wait anymore, it was now time to take action. One night, she woke up and when she saw the shadow of the man illuminated by the candlelight, she froze.
Zhao Zhi, who was preparing to leave, had not expected her to wake up at this time.
He touched her face and appeased her with a soft voice: “It’s still early, go back to sleep.”
After a pause, Zhao Zhi tidied up his clothes and then said to her, “I’m going to the palace, I’ll be back in two days.”
Ming Zhu didn’t know whether this was a dream or reality, she hummed and said, “The day you come back, bring me sweet cakes, I want to eat something sweet.”
Zhao Zhi pursed his lips and smiled lightly, “Okay.”
The bed curtains were lifted and lowered. Ming Zhu laid back under the covers and went back to sleep.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
