Xie Xingyun said, “Do you think I came with her?”

“Didn’t you?”

Xie Xingyun simply sat down on the eaves and stared at her with his deep and cold eyes. He said succinctly, “I didn’t.”

Combined with all his previous actions, Bai Xianyu did not think his words were credible.

“Then why do you think your mother suddenly came to my residence and said that she wanted to propose marriage? If you didn’t ask her to come, would she change her attitude?”

Xie Xingyun’s hand hurt slightly. He had come out in a hurry just now and his wound was wet. The damp and obscure pain spread to his entire arm. He frowned slightly. “I did mention to her before to propose marriage…”

Bai Xianyu raised her head higher and met his gaze. “So, you should have expected this day to come.”

The man was silent.

“If I don’t marry you, I can’t marry someone else. Xie Xingyun, 1 don’t like to be threatened, whether by you or your mother.” Bai Xianyu enunciated each word clearly. “You don’t want us to not even be friends, right?”

Her determined look was really like her in the past.

But in the past, she was determined to marry him.

Now she was determined to stay away from him.

Xie Xingyun pondered for a while and did not speak.

It was so long that Bai Xianyu’s neck ached. He then said, “No.”

“Then please leave now.”

Xie Xingyun stood up from the eaves. His black boots were straight, and his high ponytail fluttered in the wind. He turned around with his back facing Bai Xianyu. His movements were noble and calm, but his voice was low. “Yes.”

“I’ll leave.”

At the Northern Garrison Marquis Manor.

Eldest Princess Jing An was sitting in the waterside pavilion with an embroidery hoop in her hand. She was slowly embroidering.

The maidservants on both sides suddenly bowed. “Greetings, Young Master.”

Eldest Princess Jing An paused and immediately put down the things in her hand. “Yun’er?”

She looked up and saw Xie Xingyun’s extremely indifferent face.

Eldest Princess Jing An felt a little guilty. “Yun’er, why are you here? The wind is strong here. And you have injuries, or…”

“Mother,” Xie Xingyun interrupted her and said calmly, “Please don’t interfere in the matters between me and her anymore.”

Eldest Princess Jing An was slightly stunned. “I went to her residence to propose marriage, didn’t 1 follow your wishes?”

Xie Xingyun looked up. “If you threaten her, it will only backfire.”

Eldest Princess Jing An felt a little aggrieved. “But…”

Xie Xingyun said calmly, “I’ll take my leave first.”

“Yun’er…”

Seeing him leave, Guo Ying sighed and said, “Your Highness, since you had already put down your pride back then, why did you say something threatening?”

Eldest Princess Jing An looked indignant. “I’ve already apologized, but she still has such an attitude. How can I not be angry?”

“Your Highness, an apology can only be considered an apology if Fifth Miss Bai accepts it. Your threat will only make her more resistant. You’re aggrieved, and the Young Marquis is even more aggrieved.”

Eldest Princess Jing An was still very concerned about her son.

“So what do we do now?”

“We can only wait for Fifth Miss Bai’s anger to subside before you think of a solution.”

Eldest Princess Jing An could not help but say, “She has a bad temper and is as stubborn as a mule. She hasn’t even married him yet, but Yun’er is already siding with an outsider. If she really marries him, won’t the Marquis Manor become her own?”

Guo Ying could not help but want to say something.

According to that girl’s personality, whether she would marry him or not was still an unknown.

After making arrangements for the farm, it did not take long for Bai Xianyu to start preparing to pull in her disciples.

For ordinary people, the most difficult thing about studying hard was that their families did not have money and could not afford it.

That was perfect. She had money.

After telling Bai Jingyuan, although he was surprised, seeing the girl’s eager expression, he thought that she wanted to imitate the ancients on a whim, so he agreed.

“If you want to find someone, you can go to the White Horse Post. There are many students staying there temporarily. You might be able to meet the person you want to recruit.”

Bai Xianyu had already asked around. Most of the people at the White Horse Post were students who had entered the capital to take the examination. There were also many poor scholars. After coming to the capital, all their money had been exhausted, so they could only stay at the White Horse Post first.

The White Horse Post was built by a former chancellor. Although it did not charge a single cent when it was just built, there were over 20 scholars who had lived here for several months. However, later on, the family fell into decline, and even this White Horse Post began to collect money and became an inn.

But it was also a favorite place for scholars.

Some people even saved up money just to stay there for a night.

Because Qionglin Garden was near the White Horse Post.

The two are on the same side of the riverbank.

After every palace examination, the emperor would get someone to hold a Qionglin Banquet in Qionglin Garden. The emperor would personally come, and important ministers would accompany him to celebrate the new scholars who would bring glory to their ancestors and be extremely honored. Such a grand event also made many scholars willing to spend their lives in poverty.

“Okay, I understand, Brother.” Bai Xianyu smiled at him. “Brother, why aren’t you wearing court clothes today?”

Bai Jingyuan’s lips curled up slightly. “The Palace Examination is over. Today is the Qionglin Banquet.”

Bai Xianyu was stunned. It was already the Qionglin Banquet so quickly. She did not even know that the palace examination had already been held.

“Then who are the top three scholars?”

Bai Jingyuan paused, his gaze deep. “Xie Xingyun, Lin Xingjian, and Li Jigeng.”

Bai Xianyu was a little surprised, but too surprised.

In her previous life, Xie Xingyun had already won the first place in the 16th year of the Qian Era. However, to her surprise, Xie Xingyun seemed to have taken the exam casually.

Not long ago, he had gone to the Buddha Temple with her and even came to her residence.

“Yes, yes.” Bai Xianyu smiled and said, “Then, Brother, we can go together now. In any case, the White Horse Post and Qionglin Garden are very close.”

“Yes.” Bai Jingyuan wanted to say something, but in the end, he did not.

The day Bai Li returned to report, he told him that Little Yu and Xie Xingyun’s relationship was a little confusing.

He reported everything that had happened in Buddha Temple to him.

He was a little surprised, but it seemed that Xie Xingyun had a one-sided love for his Little Yu. Why should he mention Xie Xingyun in front of Little Yu now?

The carriage moved slowly on the street.

Bai Xianyu alighted from the carriage after arriving at the White Horse Post. The soft jade on her waist shone brightly.

She went straight to the shop assistant. “I want to see your shopkeeper.”

The clerk nodded. “This way, please.”

Bai Xianyu was brought to the inner room. Sitting in front of the table in the middle was an ordinary-looking man with a beard.

Seeing that a guest had arrived, the shopkeeper put down his writing brush and said, “Miss, can I help you?”

Bai Xianyu took out a stack of banknotes and went straight to the point. “I want to buy your White Horse Post.”

The shopkeeper’s expression changed slightly. He took a closer look at the banknotes. This little girl in the cone hat did not even blink when she took out such a large amount of banknotes. Her background was a little terrifying.

“This was left behind by my ancestors…” His eyes drifted. “Now that my family is in decline, this is the only thing 1 can think of…”

Bai Xianyu took out another stack. “That’s all. Anything more than this, 1 could set up another ‘White Horse Post’ opposite you..”
