Chapter 912: Improper
Xiao Yurong had been buried in books all day. He had neglected sleep and food for many years, which was why he had achieved what he had today.
Where did he find the time to talk about marriage?
The Crown Prince’s marriage was not something that Li s.h.i.+yan could manage. However, the Crown Prince did not care about studying. He had many conflicts because of his arm. His marriage had always been paid attention to by the imperial court. As his teacher, he also hoped that he could relax a little, so he would not rush him.
Then, there was Sang You.
That child… was more influenced by Xiao Yurong.
He loved flowers and plants because of his obsession with cleanliness. He was too picky and had been dawdling for so many years.
The fourth and fifth disciple… were in the same situation.
It seemed that the disciples he raised, other than the obedient girl and the Crown Prince, were all problematic?
The more Li s.h.i.+yan thought about it, the more obvious his frown became.
Xiao Yurong thought that his teacher was unhappy because of him, so he was very well-behaved at the moment. He did not dare to hide anything and immediately knelt down, he said, “Teacher! I admire Senior Sister… but I also know that I am far from Senior Sister, so I wouldn’t dare to ask you to arrange a marriage for us. I just need to work harder. In the future… We will talk about it again…”
Li s.h.i.+yan was stunned.
“I offended Senior Sister. I was too reckless. But I will work harder in the future…” Xiao Yurong said immediately.
Xie Qiao did not know what to say.
Did he not give up last time?
Why did he show his loyalty in front of his teacher now?!
“Junior Brother, it’s inappropriate. To tell you the truth, I already have someone I like… So no matter what you do, I won’t be satisfied. I… treat you as my younger brother. Don’t have any improper thoughts again!” Xie Qiao stood up immediately.
Improper?
Zhao Xuanjing’s face was burning.
Xie Qiao felt that Xiao Yurong did not really admire her.
However, he had heard his teacher praise her a lot, so he thought her senior sister was the best woman in the world. Naturally, he had a good impression of her.
“Your senior sister is right. The two of you are not suitable for each other. You should be more careful in the future.” Li s.h.i.+yan snapped back to his senses and immediately reminded Xiao Yurong, “There are many n.o.ble girls in the capital. Many of them are literate and reasonable. After you return to the capital, find a matchmaker to read your fortune.”
“Teacher, please take back your order.” Xiao Yurong suddenly bowed down when he heard that.
He blushed and felt embarra.s.sed. He immediately said, “If it’s not going to be senior sister, I… can choose not to marry. I’ll just spend my life with books. I don’t care about that.”
He only thought a person like him who was greedy for books probably did not have the extra energy to take care of his family and have a loving marriage in his life.
The reason why he wanted to marry his senior sister was because his teacher thought she was good.
“Let’s talk about this when we get back. You’re still young, and you still have a long way to go.” Li s.h.i.+yan did not immediately make a decision.
After saying that, he glanced at Xie Qiao and Zhao Xuanjing.
These two children were enough to make him feel at ease. They were getting married, and they were getting married to each other…
Time pa.s.sed quickly while they were talking, and before they knew it, it was already afternoon.
On White Fog Peak, Jiang Jinlu was holding a lamp in his hand, and he looked a little nervous.
He had brought it out on his own accord, and he would definitely be punished later, so the lamp must not be extinguished. Otherwise, his senior sister might eat him up.
Although he did not trust her, he did not dare to offend her for some reason.
“Why did you extinguish another lamp?! I told you to be careful!” Seeing that only the last two lamps were left in his and Guard Xia’s hands, Jiang Jinlu was so angry that his face was squeezed together
