Because he had the memories of his previous life, when Qu Ling came to this world, he had always known how to read and write.
When no one forced her to use Miao Boundary, her grandfather Prime Minister Jiang did invite a few teachers for her after returning to the capital. However, all of them, without exception, were scared away by her use of Viper Insect Mice and Ants. In the end, it was Prime Minister Jiang himself who went up to battle, forcing Qu Ling to be obedient for a few months.
Under Xiao Yi's resentful gaze, Qu Ling sat crookedly behind the table, yawning as he copied words onto a piece of paper.
It was only the first time he had tried it, but Qu Ling felt that his hands were sore, and threw the pen down in frustration, "I'm not going to try anymore! Xiao Jingyue deliberately wanted to kill me! "
What kind of man is this? He's so lecherous and short-lived, but he doesn't know how to show mercy to the fairer sex!
Although Xiao Yi felt that it was against the rules for Qu Ling to call his master's name directly, he did not dare to go through the formalities to remind him, so he silently picked up the brush and placed it back on the table.
Qu Ling glared at Xiao Yi, before taking out Green Snake and Green Scorpion, who had been bored for the whole day, and placing them on the table.
When Xiao saw the two green things on the table, his hair stood on end and he quickly shifted his gaze away. He had heard that the master was going to marry the granddaughter of the Prime Minister Jiang, but he had never heard that the new wife would actually raise such a thing.
He sincerely admired his master.
When Xiao Jingyue returned, he saw that Xiao Yi's expression was a little strange, but he did not inquire further.
When Qu Ling heard the sound of footsteps, he looked up and glanced at the person before him.
Xiao Jingyue didn't mind. He walked to the round table and sat down, then poured water for himself as he said this: "On the way back just now, I met your grandfather."
Qu Ling's hand that was holding the brush paused for a moment, and said oh with a tone that was neither cold nor hot.
"You're not asking this general what he said?"
Qu Ling curled his lips and did not say a word.
What else could he say, it was nothing more than apologizing for her death.
Apologize and move your lips, anyone.
Her grandfather was very cunning, he definitely would not be bullied by Xiao Jingyue.
Xiao Jingyue drank the cold tea in his cup in one gulp, stood up and walked to the table, then casually picked up a piece of paper with words written on it and looked at it.
"…"
"What are you doing!" Qu Ling took back the piece of paper, and puffed out her cheeks, "That's how I write, don't read if you don't like it!"
Xiao Jingyue lowered his eyes, "This general will go back and rest first. I'll come visit you tomorrow."
Qu Ling said angrily: "Don't come here, wait till my body is cold before you come and retrieve it!"
He paused in his actions, raised his eyes and looked towards Qu Ling, and did not speak.
Xiao Yi, who was standing guard outside the door, tensed up and secretly broke out in a cold sweat for his new wife.
But Xiao Yi's worry was unnecessary, Xiao Jingyue did not say anything, and left with his hands behind his back.
Xiao Yi looked at his master's retreating figure and silently wiped off his cold sweat.
This lady was truly extraordinary. She actually dared to speak to the general in such a manner.
Qu Ling only ate breakfast all day and never touched a single grain of rice again after that. After he finished copying it a second time, he felt hungry and tired, and felt dizzy.
The words on the paper in front of him suddenly overlapped each other, blurred, and then fell down.
Xiao Yi who was guarding outside heard the commotion and turned his head to look. Seeing Qu Ling suddenly lying on the table motionless, he was shocked.
There were no maids and wives in the house, so Xiao Yi did not dare go over, and could only bite the bullet and look for Xiao Jingyue.
Xiao Jingyue had only taken off half of her clothes, and upon hearing Xiao Yi's report, she immediately put on her clothes again and headed to the study room.
When he found out that Qu Ling had only been sleeping, he didn't feel that anything was amiss, and Xiao Jingyue cast a cold glance at Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi smiled as he closed the door to his study, watching his master leave.
When Qu Ling woke up, the sky outside his window was already starting to brighten.
"You're awake?"
A man's voice sounded. She drowsily opened her eyes and was confused for a while before seeing who was speaking to her.
Qu Ling moved the snake tail that was resting on his left eye to the side, rubbed his eyes, and asked: "What time is it?"
Xiao Jingyue said: "Hours."
"So early." Qu Ling muttered and stretched his waist without caring about his image.
Xiao Jingyue frowned, and only after a long time did he say: "Today is the third day after the wedding, we should have returned home."
Qu Ling was stunned for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up and excitedly slammed the table and stood up, "That's right, it's time to return home today!"
Since she was going back to the door, she didn't need to look at the 'Female Commandment' today, nor did she need to go hungry.
Xiao Jingyue looked at her coldly, "This general hasn't finished speaking."
Qu Ling was in a good mood, he had completely forgotten who had punished him to copy the《 Female Commandment》.
"Xiao Er." Xiao Jingyue suddenly shouted.
A Dark Guard appeared and knelt in front of Xiao Jingyue, "Master."
Xiao Jingyue walked to the side and sat down, "Tell me about it."
"Say what?" Qu Ling looked at Dark Guard who was kneeling on the ground in confusion, then looked at Xiao Jingyue, unable to understand what he was doing.
"Yes." Xiao Er nodded, turned and faced Qu Ling, and said respectfully: "Madam, at noon today, the gongzi passed by the back door of South Wind House, and found a corpse, died of poison. The word 'River' is written in blood on the ground beside the corpse. "
Qu Ling's face changed, "Do you know who the dead are?"
Xiao Er answered: "In reply to Madam, it's a female merchant named Huo Xinyi."
Qu Ling's face paled as she heard Xiao Er continue to speak, "According to Caoital Officials's report, there were people who saw Madame talking to Huo Xinyi at the back door of the South Wind House yesterday … At that time, Madame was still very angry. "
Qu Ling finally understood what happened and was angered into laughter, "So, you suspect that her death was related to me?"
Xiao Er did not answer, but Xiao Jingyue opened his mouth instead: "The matter of you going to the noodle house yesterday, was something that came out of Huo Xinyi's mouth."
