Chapter 139: He was promoted to the fourth level just a year ago
The Lantern Festival is very lively, but in Xiao Li's eyes, there is nothing new and not much attractive.
Feng Yin noticed her lack of interest and immediately took her to the teahouse.
The Feng family's teahouse has the best business today, but they have reserved the best floor.
It can be seen that it has been carefully arranged. The extra tables have been cleared away, leaving only the one with the best view.
The surroundings were cleaned, various porcelain carvings were placed in the empty space as decoration, and a layer of cashmere carpet was laid on the ground.
The table was covered with fine silk and satin, tea was boiling over the charcoal fire, and various types of baked dried fruits exuded a unique fragrance. Silver tableware, snacks, and fresh fruits that were rare to see at this time of the year were all placed on the table.
There are two very beautiful lanterns hanging next to it as decoration.
This degree of maturity is simply impressive.
"Did you prepare all this?"
Feng Yin said sheepishly: "That's all I can think of. If Princess doesn't like it, please tell me. I'll change it next time."
Xiao Li: "." I really can't tell. Are you chasing a talented girl player?
This teahouse is in a great location. There are people selling lanterns downstairs, and opposite is the juggling table. Sitting upstairs, you can watch the various juggling from the most comprehensive perspective, and you can also listen to the people downstairs guessing lantern riddles. However, it is still early in the day, so come here Not many people buy lamps.
Xiao Li looked around and looked away without interest. Instead of looking at the things outside, it was more interesting to look at the little idiot in front of him.
Speaking of which, this was the first time they had sat face to face formally. They had met before for various reasons and had not said a few serious words.
Xiao Li stared at the person so hard that he was almost ashamed, and then he said slowly: "What do you usually do?"
Feng Yin immediately replied: "Read and write, and occasionally go out to meet friends."
It’s normal to study at this age.
"Are you studying at home or going to Taipei University?"
Feng Yin: "Occasionally I go to Taixue to study, and by the way I give two lessons to the young prince and all the younger students."
Xiao Lizhen was a little surprised: "Are you going to give a lecture?"
Feng Yin: "I don't go there very often. I go there every four days. I usually spend my time editing books in Dulin Garden."
Dulinyuan is a government office specializing in book repair, and is responsible for the compilation and repair of all kinds of books. The attic in the middle of Dulinyuan is the royal library, which is said to have a collection of 30,000 volumes. It is a holy place for literati and writers all over the world.
Xiao Li was silent for a moment: "To participate in the revision of books, you must be an official."
Feng Yin smiled shyly: "I entered Dulin Garden as a sixth-level editor when I was fifteen years old. It has been almost five years now. I was promoted to fourth-level editor a few years ago, which made the princess laugh."
Xiao Li: "."
It's not that she doesn't understand the rules for aristocratic children to gain access to the officialdom. All the children of third rank and above belong to aristocratic families. It doesn't mean that they are born with third rank, but that these children of aristocratic families are sent to the officialdom to hone their skills at a very young age. When they are almost old, they replace their fathers' official positions and even return to the officialdom. To be able to climb up, because the resources are absolutely tilted, everyone above the third rank is from aristocratic families.
But Feng Yin, with this baby face and a simple and shy character, is less than a fourth-rank official at the age of twenty.
Xiao Li took a sip of tea and settled down.
"Awesome!"
His grandfather is great, his whole family is great, and he is great too.
Not to mention that his official position had the prestige of his grandfather and the support of the Feng family to send him up. Even if he was sent up, it was still his ability to sit still.
If Xiao Li only regarded him as a cute boy and a sweet bean before, this moment completely changed.
It's also her fault that she didn't take him seriously before and didn't check him out at all, which led to the shock at this moment.
It’s a big taboo to judge people by their appearance!
The admiration in Xiao Li's eyes was not concealed, and Feng Yin felt that it was only at this moment that he was finally noticed by her.
Xiao Li's interest was aroused and he took the young man seriously, and the two chatted while drinking tea. This young man named Feng Yin gradually became three-dimensional in her consciousness.
Feng Yin was born into a family of prominent civil servants and was educated by her grandfather. She loved reading and had a photographic memory.
Because he was raised as a girl when he was a child, he hardly went out, which gave him more time to study.
He was deceived several times, just because his interpersonal communication was simple and the other person was his brother-in-law, so he trusted him very much.
But if it was in Dulin Garden, he would be in charge of the review.
Because he has an eye for ten lines and an extraordinary memory, no mistake can escape his eyes.
He is responsible for reviewing the compiled books, detecting typos, checking the table of contents, and re-proofreading.
No wonder he has a serious and old-fashioned temperament.
Xiao Li didn't realize it was getting dark until the lights were brightly lit outside.
And she actually sat here chatting with him for nearly two hours.
"Princess, would you like to go down for a walk?"
Feng Yin's eyes were full of expectation.
Xiao Li moved, her stomach hurt so much that she frowned: "Let me solve a small problem first."
After Xiao Li left, Feng Yin finally understood, and suddenly her face became extremely dry.
After solving the three emergencies, Xiao Li was blown away by the night wind.
She did not come out alone. Hong Yue followed her closely. Rong Qing and Yang Jun stood not far away to protect her. Around the tea house, there were at least fifty guards disguised as common people.
In addition to Xiao Li's guards, Feng Yin also arranged manpower.
Although it seems a bit exaggerated, if it were not a bit exaggerated, those who wanted to kill Xiao Li would have done it long ago.
It's rare that I'm in a good mood, but I can't let anyone ruin it.
Xiao Li passed by the corridor when she went back. She just glanced down casually, but suddenly a figure in the crowd attracted her.
The man had snow-white hair and a tall and slender figure. Only his back could be seen, but Xiao Li's heart skipped a beat inexplicably.
This person is very strange, should she know him?
But she had never seen anyone with gray hair, and he seemed to be very young.
"Yang Jun, follow him!"
Xiao Li's intuition told her that she had to know who this person was.
Yang Jun hurried down, Feng Yin passed him by: "What happened?"
When the figure had disappeared into the crowd, Xiao Li looked away: "It's okay, I saw a strange person."
Feng Yin took a look and didn't see anyone strange, but he didn't ask. The only person he cared about today was her: "Then the princess is still going down?"
Xiao Li thought for a while: "Let's go."
There were a lot of people at the lantern festival, people were passing each other one after another, and it was very lively. However, the Rongqing people were tall and armed with big swords. When the people saw it, they would naturally give way.
Feng Yin wanted to walk slowly with Xiao Li, but Xiao Li unconsciously chased the person in the direction he left just now.
She really wanted to know who that person was, that person gave her such a strange feeling.
"Princess." Seeing that she was about to enter the alley, Feng Yin finally reached out to hold her back: "Princess, that's not the lantern festival over there. The river lanterns are on the other side."
"Oh."
Xiao Li suddenly became alert, as if she had just woken up from a dream, and turned around to leave with him. But at this moment, she saw the white-haired figure standing at the other end of the alley. She could not see clearly, but she could feel his direct gaze. His eyes fell on her, which was sinister and penetrating.
