"This is called a masterpiece of nature." Ji Shuying continued, "Not only Brother Zhao, but I also think the scenery around me is natural and there is no trace of artificial carving. Did Ling Mei take care of this garden?"

"Yes, the sister-she has an extraordinary vision. Anyway, I am willing to give up the disadvantage. Not only the scenery in the garden, but also the literary gathering today, but also the careful arrangement of the sister-she." Li Xin replied with a smile, "Choose here is also the meaning of the sister-she. I originally thought that the water pavilion was better. The sister-she said that the scenery in the water pavilion was monotonous. Besides, the weather is cold now, and only charcoal basins can be grown in the water pavilion, which is not good."

"Is there a fire dragon in this warm pavilion?" Lu Yan reacted very quickly, "No wonder the heater under my feet is rising. It's still far from the furnace festival. You guys are here..." Lu Yan waved the folding fan in his hand.

"Why stick to the rules?" Li Xin said with a smile.

"I really envy your family." Lu Yan patted Li Xin's shoulder, "The clan... Your family is not a clan, there are no rules yet, it's not like us, our family is fine, ask Xiao Ji, his family is a big family, the real scholarly master, ask his family's rules, can he burn the ground dragon before opening the furnace to save energy? His family is extremely rules, even the clothes are very rules. I remember one year, it was so cold that we were all wearing big sweaters. But he was so cold that he didn't want to go out. He said that it was not the solar term, and he couldn't wear big sweaters. Is there any such thing?"

Ji Shuying felt a little uncomfortable, "It's because I have a bad temper and are too rigid, so my family is not that strict."

"I think my uncle's family in Beijing is fine, and the rules in my hometown are even heavier." Ji Shuying's cousin, Ji Shutong, who went to Beijing to prepare for the spring exam, smiled and said: "At that time, we were in the clan school, people often had their hands swollen because they were not allowed to open the furnace festival, let alone the charcoal basin, they were not allowed to even take the hand stove. I remember a clan nephew who was spoiled and my mother was spoiled. She had been secretly prepared for him after more than ten days after leaving the furnace festival. The next day, she was seen by her husband and knelt outside for a day."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. My family's rules are also very big." Seeing that Ji Shuying was a little uncomfortable, Lu Yan immediately changed the topic, "Li Dalang's family is the most comfortable. I don't care about you. Anyway, I will stay at Li Dalang's house often in the future. How good is this garden! Last time you said... it was your long-term follower. Your family has a farm with a backer and a good hot spring? In winter, I want to go to your hot spring farm for a few days! Are there anyone who goes with me? I'll invite guests for Li Dalang!"

Lu Yan's greetings declined, and everyone was invited to the invitation with a loud voice. Li Xin nodded with a smile, "It's okay to go there any time, and stay for as many days. I will ask someone to clean up the farm."

"The scenery here is nice, I'll go out for a walk." Ji Shuying said as she walked towards the door of the warm cabinet. Lu Yan hesitated for a while and followed behind and smiled: "I'll go out for a walk too. The question in the morning was still not good. Let's take a look at the beautiful scenery, maybe you'll have inspiration."

The people in the warm room also came out, and a group of people scattered while walking, some stopped here, some stayed there, some were alone and some were happy about the scenery, and some were talking in groups of three or two.

Ji Shuying looked very comfortable while walking alone. She walked around a large chrysanthemum and then walked towards the colorful autumn forest.

Li Tong was optimistic about the last refreshment, came out of the kitchen temporarily set up in the back garden, turned into Qiulin, and sat down in a pavilion not far from the warm pavilion. Shuilian Fanwang was built in the red mud stove in the pavilion and made a cup of tea.

Like other pavilions and towers, there are small red mud stoves, tea tables and tea sets, and a few snacks. Li Xin and others walk around and sit and drink tea.

Li Tong picked up the cup and sipped the tea slowly. After sipping half a cup, Shui Lian said softly: "Girl, someone is here, it's like..." Shui Lian raised her toes and looked carefully, "It's Mr. Ji, we have to avoid it."

"No." Li Tong heard that it was Ji Shuying, thought about it and answered.

He actually went to the autumn examination and passed the examination. Based on his talent, talent and reputation, as well as the reputation of Prime Minister Ji, his father, the top scholar, and the Ji family's 100-year-old academic achievements, he will definitely win the spring examination unless the emperor said.

This is what the eldest princess said, and she thought so too.

Since Ji Shuying passed the imperial examination, it was very different from before. She wanted to tell him some things. Since it was different, she hoped that he would be different. Don’t be confused about Empress Ji’s death and hatred for the Zhou family like before. In fact, the Zhou family is not the most wrong one, nor is it the crime of Empress Ji’s death.

Ji Shuying was only a little later than Shui Lian. First, she saw Shui Lian standing at the entrance of the pavilion. A few steps forward, she saw Li Tong sitting in the pavilion with her back facing him.

Ji Shuying stopped walking and subconsciously wanted to turn around to avoid it. This was the first reaction of the root in his heart. Just as he was about to turn around, Ji Shuying stopped again. After a moment of staying silent, he didn't know why, but he raised his foot and walked towards the pavilion.

"Young Master Ji." Shui Lian bent her knees and Li Tong stood up, turned around and looked at Ji Shuying standing outside the pavilion. Her smile was bright and generous as if she was her close friend, or she was Li Xin, who met Ji Shuying, a friend.

At that moment, Ji Shuying felt a strong sense of shame in her heart. The other party was as bright as the wind and moon, but he was very vulgar.

"I smelled the fragrance of tea, and it turned out to be a girl." Ji Shuying bowed to the end.

"Then come in and have a cup of tea." Li Tong gave in to the side, and Ji Shuying walked into the pavilion on the other side and sat upright opposite Li Tong.

Shuilian took the silver pot and boiled it. Li Tong took the tea and roasted it like she was with the eldest princess, crushed it into tea powder and put it in a cup.

Shuilian boiled water with almost no sound, Li Tong was roasting tea and grinding tea, Ji Shuying looked at Li Tong who was roasting tea and grinding tea. In the pavilion, there was only the water in the silver pot, and the sound of the gurgling sound that was about to bloom.

"Please, Mr. Ji." Li Tong ordered a cup of tea and signaled Ji Shuying.

Li Tong's invitation cut through the tranquility and peace in the pavilion. Ji Shuying seemed to be frightened, and she was a little panicked, "Ah, thank you, good tea!"

Li Tong smiled. Is the tea good enough to praise it after drinking it? The Ji family always lacks sincerity in their politeness.

"I heard from Brother Ling, thanks to the girl's careful arrangement today. Thank you girl." Ji Shuying took a few sips of tea without any taste. After Li Tong looked at her, she searched her stomach and tried to find the most suitable words and topics. Under her eyes, she could not keep her calm without finding something to say or something to do.
