Chapter 9

Ever since Meng Tan had a goal, he has been seriously reviewing the books, but he found that he could read one out of ten of a book, and he could memorize even less. He didn't leave until he was gone. He was holding a book and reading along the way, but he accidentally bumped into someone.

"Ah... sorry, I... Xie Ran?" Meng Tan didn't expect that it was Xie Ran he bumped into. Xie Ran was wearing a green dress, with a wooden hairpin pinned to his smooth long hair, and the setting sun shone on his side. On the face, there is some warmth.

"Still reading?" Xie Ran asked.

I don't know if it was because of the setting sun, Meng Tan felt that Xie Ran's voice added a touch of tenderness, which made his face a little hot, but he didn't show an idiot again, he had restrained himself a lot when facing Xie Ran.

"I don't understand too much, the more I learn, the more I realize how ignorant I am." Meng Tan spoke seriously about his feelings.

Xie Ran just nodded, and was about to leave. Meng Tan really wanted to talk to him a few more words, but he knew it was impossible. Just when he was about to look at Xie Ran's back until he disappeared, Xie Ran suddenly turned around .

"Come with me!" he said.

Meng Tan didn't understand for a moment, he said, "What?"

Xie Ran didn't intend to answer any more, Meng Tan reacted, and immediately followed his pace. They walked around the winding path and came to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion where Xie Ran was given a lunch break in the academy.

The green bamboos in Xiaoxiang Pavilion are tall and straight, quiet and pleasant. Compared with the Sorrowful Courtyard, it is a bit less lifelike, but more elegant. Meng Tan followed Xie Ran in.

"Sit..." Xie Ran pointed to the cushion next to the desk, and Meng Tan sat down carefully and put the book on the table.

Xie Ran also sat down, opened his book, and frowned when he saw his notes on the book, which made Meng Tan's heart hang.

Unexpectedly, Xie Ran didn't blame him, but started to tell him. Meng Tan listened carefully, until after dark, Xie Ran stopped suddenly, looked out the window and closed the book.

"You go back today!" Xie Ran said, Meng Tan woke up like a dream, looked at the candlelight on the desk, only to realize that he didn't even realize that the school boy was lighting the lamp.

"Thank you, husband, for teaching me." After speaking, Meng Tan stood up, but the next moment he fell straight back, Xie Ran's eyes flashed a flash of light, he grabbed Meng Tan's hand and pulled towards him, Meng Tan's whole body They all fell into his arms.

Xie Ran pursed his lips, he planned to push away the next moment, but he thought of how a master who was not working hard could be so agile, that's all he could do.

Meng Tan finally recovered from the fright. He opened his mouth backwards to scream, but he fell into Xie Ran's arms the next moment. This is Xie Ran's arms.

Ah - Meng Tan shouted in his heart, he pulled Xie Ran's sleeve, turned to look at Xie Ran, Xie Ran's face was so close to him, he could even feel his breath, and a burst of cold fragrance.

"Get up!" Xie Ranhan said in a voice, he just wanted to throw people out now.

"Legs are numb, I can't get up." Meng Tan said honestly, but his eyes remained motionless against Xie Ran, and his gaze swept across his lips.

Xie Ran saw through his thoughts at a glance, and instantly turned cold, but he still underestimated Meng Tan's lust, warm lips pressed together, Xie Ran's eyes shrank, and when the two lips parted, Meng Tan kissed Xie Ran's chin and soft lips were moist, Xie Ran woke up and stood up, Meng Tan rolled off his body.

"Xie Ran, husband?." Meng Tan rubbed his sore buttocks and said dissatisfied.

"Forgive me not far away." Xie Ran said, then he turned his back to Meng Tan and looked out the window.

Meng Tan rubbed his legs and stood up, picked up the book, looked at Xie Ran and asked, "Husband, can you come to ask for advice tomorrow?"

After finally getting the chance, he wasn't afraid of his thick skin.

Xie Ran didn't answer, Meng Tan took it as his consent, then turned around and left with a smirk on his face.

After he walked away, Xie Qiao, Xie Ran's book boy, walked to the study.

"Master, to Madam..." Xie Qiao didn't finish his words.

Xie Ran lowered his eyes and was silent for a while before he said: "It's just a son of a family, how is the third prince?"

Xie Qiao heard that his master didn't want to talk about Meng Tan, so he reported the truth: "The prince has not recovered from his illness, and the third prince helps the emperor to handle the government affairs, and the emperor praises him a lot."

After hearing Xie Qiao's words, Xie Ran raised his eyes suddenly, under the moonlight, his eyes were shining with a cold light.

"Tell him that his sharpness is too sharp, and proper hiding of his clumsiness will be beneficial and harmless to him."

Xie Qiao lowered his head and said "Yes!" Then he seemed to remember something, hesitantly said: "Master, Prime Minister Meng Huo frequently enters the palace recently, I don't know why?"

Xie Ran said: "Don't worry about him, he is not a threat to us." On the contrary, because Meng Tan married him, the Prime Minister might become his help.

At this time, the moon is bright and the wind is clear, Xie Ran speaks easily, but he doesn't know that a wise man is always worried, and there will be mistakes. Not everyone has his resourcefulness and vision.

After Prime Minister Meng Huo frequently entered the palace, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who had been lingering in illness, recovered, which forced the ambitious Third Prince Liu Xiu to link the two together.

"My lord, I heard that the late wife of the prime minister was a disciple of Yaoxian." Liu Xiu's confidant, the servant Wang Ying said, his face was as white as a ghost, and the thick powder couldn't cover the wrinkles around his hanging eyes.

Liu Xiufang had thick eyebrows and a luxurious demeanor, his face darkened after hearing Wang Ying's words.

"Dare to block my way, die!"

Wang Ying's body trembled when he heard this. Who would have known that the peaceful third prince would be a bloodthirsty and brutal man, and he also didn't know why the master chose him.

Meng Tan, who was far away in Hong'an Academy, didn't know that his father had been regarded as a thorn in his side, and his astrolabe of fate had shifted. Even himself, on the road to Xie Ran, there were many obstacles.

"Brother Meng, something has happened." Wang Min went straight into Meng Tan's room without even knocking on the door.

Meng Tan was startled and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Go to the poem wall to see, the essay you copied has been hung on it."

What did you copy?Meng Tan didn't understand. Three days ago, the old master in Class C arranged a essay. In Hong'an College, excellent essays would be posted on the poetry wall of the assembly. Although Meng Tan didn't think he could post on the wall, but In case of anything, he carefully read a lot of related books before writing the Fu Lun, and handed it in with confidence, but why did it become plagiarized now?

Meng Tan was in a hurry and rushed towards the wall of poetry, Wang Min and Meng Tong immediately followed, when Meng Tan arrived, there were already many people around the wall of poetry.

He pushed aside the crowd, and saw two Fu Lun with the same content posted on the poem wall, one was in his handwriting and signed his name, and the other was Fu Lun by a class B named Li Rong.

The writing is his writing, but the content is not the one he handed in at all.

"It's not mine." Meng Tan said loudly, it was a thin man next to him in a coarse cloth gown looking at Meng Tan with resentment.

"Xie Qi, you still dare to admit it, you are really shameless, just because you are a son of an official family, you can bully us humble scholars?"

The person who spoke was Li Rong, the owner of the other article, and because they had the same strategy, they were directly posted on the wall by the masters of the second class.

"What do you mean?" Meng Tan asked anxiously. Before Li Rong could speak, the students around him were already discussing, and they looked at Meng Tan with contempt and mockery in their eyes.

"How thick-skinned, how dare you copy someone's prose theory so openly."

"Isn't this the pervert who peeked at Mr. Xie that day? He's really a dog."

When Meng Tong rushed over, he saw his young master being pointed at by someone. The young master was anxiously explaining something, but how could one person's voice cover the voices of a group of people.

At this moment, the strict school supervisor came over.

"What are you all doing here? Let me go." The supervisor roared, the students fell silent and left the stage one by one, while Zhang Chengxue and Tongwen watched the good show quietly in the distance.

"You are really powerful enough to kill people invisible." Zhang Chengxue faked a smile.

Wen An snorted coldly: "If he wasn't Meng Tan, I could still let him go. Who would have asked him to provoke Mr.?"

"That's right." Blame him for stealing our beloved, Zhang Chengxue thought so.

"I'm curious how you imitated his handwriting?" Wen An turned to look at Zhang Chengxue.

Zhang Chengxue laughed, the essays of the three classes will be corrected by the teacher with the lowest seniority in the academy, this person is naturally the youngest Xie Ran, no matter how talented he is, he still has to be criticized.

Zhang Chengxue, who has never been in Xie Ran's study like a casual meal, has no difficulty getting Meng Tan's Fu Lun, and imitating handwriting is her strong point.

"Aren't you afraid that Xie Ran will know?" Wen An asked.

Zhang Chengxue said affirmatively when he met Meng Tan in the Sorrowful Courtyard: "In my opinion, senior brother doesn't like his wife at all."

At the same time, the "victim" Li Rong grabbed Meng Tan's sleeve. He was a scholar and a farmer from a poor family. Although he was thin, he had a lot of strength.

Meng Tan was dragged in front of the supervisor, Meng Tong anxiously protected his young master, while Wang Min pushed Li Rong away.

"Don't touch my young master!" Meng Tong shouted.

Li Rong straightened his clothes, and said directly to the supervisor: "This is the person who copied my essays, causing me to be questioned."

"You're talking nonsense, my young master's Fu Lun was written by himself." Meng Tong yelled.

Meng Tan shook his head and told him to shut up, he was at a loss now and didn't know what to do.

When the supervisor heard this, he brought them directly to the masters. At this time, the masters were also discussing this matter in the conference hall, and Xie Ran was among them. He didn't say a word, his face was expressionless, no one knew what he was thinking .

Meng Tan saw him as soon as he entered the door, but this time he was not like before, staring at him as if he couldn't see enough, Meng Tan lowered his head, his actions made Xie Ran frowned slightly.

As soon as he entered the door, Li Rong sued Meng Tanlai. Although the people in class B were not as talented as those in class A, they were not well-educated in poetry and books. This kind of thing happened, and Li Rong's anger reached the extreme.

He felt like a warrior who was oppressed by evil forces, looking at Meng Tan with nothing to say but angry and at the same time a little proud.

"Is this true? You copied his theory?" Xie Ran, who had been silent for a long time, asked in a deep voice.

Meng Tan suffocated for breath, and his grievances flooded like sea water.

"I didn't!" He looked directly at Xie Ran and said, no one can believe him, only Xie Ran can't.

"Do you dare to say that this is not your handwriting?" Li Rong suddenly took out the theory.

"It's my words, but I didn't write the content, I..." He was interrupted by Li Rong before he could finish speaking.

"Gentlemen, did you hear that? He admitted it." Li Rong said anxiously. After finishing speaking, all the masters shook their heads and sighed. No one asked any more questions. From their point of view, the matter is already clear.

"I didn't..." Meng Tan was about to burst into tears. He looked at Xie Ran as if asking for help, but Xie Ran suddenly got up and walked away.
