Being a Lady of an Influential Family: 30、Ms. Zhuo’s sideshow: the time is full of romance (2)

The first official meeting between Zhuo Lin and Fu Zheng was the following spring.

There is a peach blossom forest on the mountain outside the capital. The school rarely organizes students to go out for an outing. Zhuo Lin was also dragged by a few familiar girls.

I don't want this to be another self-proclaimed romantic confession.

Soon after arriving, the classmates who were still walking together disappeared. A handsome male classmate stopped in front of Zhuo Lin with a bouquet of flowers.

"Sister Zhuo, I have liked you for a long time, please promise to date me."

"..." Zhuo Lin was speechless when she saw the male classmate kneeling on the ground. Which novel from abroad did she get her inspiration from?

Speaking of which, don't you think your messy bunch of flowers doesn't go well with this peach blossom forest?

Zhuolin coughed lightly, "That...Student Zhang, please get up first."

Student Zhang was full of joy, "You promised me to come?"

Zhuolin shook her head, "No, I just think... It's better for boys not to kneel casually. Thank you for your favor, but I don't have any intention of falling in love at the moment."

Student Zhang was a little disappointed, "I'm serious."

Zhuolin smiled and said, "Are your parents serious? If I remember correctly, Zhang's father is a minister of the punishment department, right?" Now it is indeed much more open than before, but those so-called powerful and powerful families are really not. Open to the point where you can let your children meet people or even marry by the way.

Student Zhang looked slightly stiff, Zhuo Lin turned around and was about to leave, but Zhang hurriedly stood up and stopped in front of her, "Zhuolin, I'm really serious!"

Zhuolin said, "I am also serious, I refuse you."

Student Zhang was a little red and looked slightly annoyed, "Are you still thinking about Zhang Bi? He is already married, and Mrs. Zhang Shao is from a famous family in the capital, so you can't be together! Do you want to be his concubine? ?!"

"..." Who is discrediting her? !

"What does this have to do with Zhang Bi? Didn't he go to the southwest? We haven't seen each other for almost a year." Zhuo Lin said. In fact, she didn't know Zhang Bi very well, and they hadn't met a few times in total.

"Then why did you reject me?!" This classmate with the same surname Zhang obviously has the confidence to give up on me except Zhang Bi.

Zhuolin said, "I refuse naturally because I'm not interested in you, and...I don't want to fall in love yet. I'm only eighteen years old. At this age, I should study hard instead of falling in love."

"..." Classmate Zhang stared at Zhuo Lin for a long time before saying, "I don't believe it!"

It's none of my business whether you believe it or not?

Zhuolin turned around again and was about to leave. Classmate Zhang stepped forward and grabbed her wrist, "Zhuolin, I really like you, do you really not think about it? As long as you promise me, I will Can..."

Zhuo Lin's face was slightly dark, "Student Zhang, I think you can communicate with Ling Zun Lingtang first!"

Student Zhang froze completely, and let go of the hand holding Zhuo Lin's wrist.

Zero Lin took a step back and distanced herself from him, "Please respect yourself."

Student Zhang stared fixedly at Zhuo Lin, a bit of ruthlessness gradually rose in her eyes, and her heart began to fluctuate violently.

Zhuo Lin naturally saw his reaction, and a bit of vigilance rose in her heart.

Just as Zhang classmates rushed towards Zhuo Lin and Zhuo Lin was about to fight back, there was a sudden sound, and the boy who was originally fierce suddenly fell to the ground.

Zhuolin's eyes flashed slightly, she looked around and raised her head.

She stood under a hundred-year-old peach tree, and a handsome and handsome face appeared in the prosperous peach blossom bushes above.

The young man has a sturdy face that is as sharp as a knife. Even with a smile on his face, it vaguely makes people feel a bit of iron and blood. This is obviously not the young masters who are dressed in fine clothes and food in the capital, this is a man who has really been on the battlefield and seen blood.

The other party is wearing a black uniform, leaning leisurely against the tree, and it makes people feel a strange beauty in the peach blossoms.

The beautiful and charming peach blossoms and the tough young people actually complement each other.

"Should I show you the grace of saving my life?" The young man asked Zhuo Lin with a smile.

Zhuolin said lightly, "I can take care of him without you doing anything. It's not a life-saving grace, right?"

Young man said, "But if I heard correctly, he is the son of the minister of punishment, right? If I don't do it, you will offend him."

Zolein was silent, indeed.

Although she can solve it, it is still a little troublesome.

"Thank you then?" Zhuo Lin raised her head and smiled at the person in the tree.

The young man on the tree stretched out his hand and folded a peach blossom, and jumped down from the tree, "Peach blossoms are for beauty."

Don't give Zhuo Lin a chance to refuse at all, and shoved the flower directly into her hands.

Zero Lin stared at the flower in her hand, tossing between throwing and not throwing.

The young man sighed, "Beautiful women have no heart these days. I took care of the big trouble for you. You won't even help me get something."

"..." Wasn't it for me? For the first time, the girl Zhuo Lin was a little embarrassed.

"Hold it for you?"

The young man nodded as a matter of course, "Of course, I'm going to take care of this stuff, you have to help me get it, this is very important."

"Where is it important?" Zhuo Lin observed carefully and did not find any difference between this peach blossom and other peach blossoms.

The young man nodded, "This is what I have carefully selected to confess. If you break it for me and make my confession fail, then you can pay me to be my daughter-in-law."

Although she deeply doubted the other party's words, Zhuo Lin still couldn't think much after seeing the young man lift up the student Zhang on the ground, "Where are you taking him?"

"Don't worry, it won't kill him." The young man waved his hand and walked out. He is also a young man who is not too short in height, and being held in his hand is like a chicken with no pressure.

"Remember to be optimistic about my flowers." The young man did not forget to turn his head and said, "By the way, my name is Fu Zheng."

So, Zhuo Lin had to stand under the tree with flowers and wait for each other.

This wait is more than an hour.

"..." was tricked!

Zhuo Lin, who stared at the peach blossom in her hand, gritted her teeth secretly. Miss Zhuo has always been smart, but she is the only one who has been tricked by others!

Until Zhuo Lin left under the peach tree, Fu Zheng slowly walked out from the depths of the peach forest.

Seeing that Zhuo Lin didn't throw away the peach blossoms she gave, Fu Zheng hummed a little song with satisfaction.

Yao Guan, who was following him, couldn't help shaking his head secretly in his heart, "Brother, do you know what your name is?"

Fu Zheng glanced at him, "What?"

Yao Guan said, "You're calling yourself dead. If you don't slap you next time, you'll be polite." Let a girl stand under a tree and wait for him for more than an hour. ? If you really have something to do, that's all, he's still hiding in the dark and watching other girls waiting for him there, still complacent?

It would be unfortunate that a woman like this would marry him.

"What do you know, little brat?" Fu Zheng disagreed.

Yao Guan rolled his eyes, "I'm three years younger than you. Besides, I already have a daughter-in-law, do you have one?"

"..." He really didn't.

Fu Zheng murmured, "I didn't lie to her." This time the flowers, the next confession, perfect!

Yao looked at his absent-minded appearance, but was a little curious, "Brother Fu, do you really like that girl?"

Fu Zheng glanced at him, "No?"

Yao Guan scratched his hair, "It's not impossible, it's just... If you listened to my hero save the beauty last time, maybe you all will be now."

Fu Zheng also regretted a little, but he couldn't let the little brother see it, so he forcibly saved his respect, "It's called seeing the color once we meet, and we now call it fate."

"..." Do you think that seeing one more time won't be an excuse?

I don't know what that guy named Fu Zheng did. After returning to school, that student Zhang didn't come to see Zhuo Lin again.

On the other hand, Zhuo Lin is a little estranged from the classmates she used to be familiar with. She doesn't like such self-asserting people, even if their original intention may be "for her good".

A few days later, her mentor had her called over.

"Mr. Ji, what's the matter?" Zhuo Lin walked to the teacher's door and saw a young man sitting in the office besides her teacher. The young man looked like he was not yet in his thirties. He was handsome and elegant, and the smile on his face seemed to be somewhat similar to Zhang Bi, but he had a unique temperament that Zhang Bi did not have at all. Expensive and elegant.

Zhuolin raised her eyebrows slightly at the young man, and the young man also smiled at her.

Professor Ji was very happy to see Zhuo Lin, and quickly waved, "Student Zhuo Lin, come in." He turned his head to the young man and said, "This is the student I just accepted last year, from Professor Chen of Anlan Women's University. Proud student, she is proficient in Iraqi and Saxi, and should be able to help you."

The young man nodded slightly, his voice clear and magnetic, "Professor Lao Ji is here. Miss Zhuo, we meet again."

Professor Ji was surprised, "Do you know each other?"

Zhuolin shook her head and said, "I've seen it twice, in the school library."

Zhuolin often spends time in the library, so I met this young man twice in the library and talked a few times. Zhuo Lin guessed that his identity should be unusual, and he was not a teacher or student at the school. She didn't want to cause trouble, so she didn't pay much attention.

Professor Ji was a little helpless when he heard the words, "I don't know, you have been to the school."

The young man smiled, "Teacher is so hard to disturb, I made you laugh."

Professor Ji waved his hands again and again, looked at Zhuo Lin again and said, "In two days, the envoys of Ilya and Sassi will visit the capital, along with them are the crown princess of Ilya and Wei of Sassi. Duchess La Augustus. Ilya is good to say, although there are not many women in the capital who are proficient in Ilya, you can find a few, but it is really hard to find those who can speak Saxi.”

Zero Lin understood, "Teacher, do you want me to translate for Duchess Augustus?"

Professor Ji looked at the young man with a smile, the young man nodded and said, "I want to trouble Miss Zhuo, I wonder if it is convenient for you?"

Seeing that Zhuo Lin didn't answer, Professor Ji smiled and said, "Student Zhuo, no matter how well you learn a language, you still need to use it in practice. This is also a rare opportunity for practice."

Zhuolin smiled, "It's not that I'm being hypocritical, it's just that diplomacy is no trivial matter. I've never done a translation for anyone. If something goes wrong, isn't it a shame for An Xia?"

The young man smiled, "I believe in Professor Ji's students, and... even if there is a small mistake, it doesn't matter. Now in the capital, I can't find a few women who can make mistakes. I'm a little curious. Why would you think of learning Saxi? Now, more people will choose Dayin Ilia even if they want to learn a foreign language?"

Saxi is only a small country very far away from Daxia, and this language is naturally very unpopular. Even the foreign language college of Anxia Jingcheng University does not offer this course.

Zhuo Lin said, "I have a teacher at Anlan University. She is an expatriate who returned from Saxi, and I learned from her."

"It turns out that Miss Zhuo is very talented." He had already learned from Professor Ji that this Miss Zhuo had only studied at Anlan University for two years. Not only got a degree, but also mastered two foreign languages, which is indeed an amazing talent.

"Mr. Mumbai, I haven't asked this gentleman yet..."

The young man laughed, "My surname is Xiao, Xiao Zhu."

"..." After all, the eighteen-year-old Zhuo Lin is not the Ms. Zhuo who will be decades later, and even she was speechless for a while.

After a moment of silence in the office, Zhuo Lin found her voice, "It was Your Majesty, please forgive me."

The young man chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter, Miss Zhuo doesn't have to feel restrained. So, is Miss Zhuo willing to accept the next request? Of course, it's not just asking for your help, the royal family will treat Miss Zhuo as a special translator. If Miss Zhuo is willing, and the royal family is also willing to hire Miss Zhuo as a special translator for a long time."

"Thank you for your trust, I will do my best." Zhuo Lin smiled.

After discussing with Zhuo Lin about receiving foreign guests, Xiao Zhu quickly said goodbye and left.

When he left Zhuo Lin, he looked at Professor Ji, who was sitting on the side watching the show, feeling helpless, "Professor..."

Professor Ji smiled, "You can't blame me, I can't sue you under His Majesty's eyelids."

Zhuolin didn't hold on to this, but it was a little strange, "Why should Your Majesty come to you in person for such a trivial matter?"

Professor spread his hands and said, "Although Your Majesty wants to reform, the old and stubborn people in the court are not so easy to compromise. Let's talk about the school. The reform of this co-educational comprehensive university has already begun when the first emperor began. Now there are fewer than ten comprehensive schools in the country. Take our school as an example, there are only a few female students in total? Those who are willing to let girls come to our school are either really open-minded scholars, or they don’t care much. Famous people. The daughters of the rich and powerful family, they would rather hire a teacher at home or go to a women's college. This women's college is still like Anlan University, and the others have long been biased. What they teach is to write. The thing is not as good as it was hundreds of years ago. Even now, in the huge capital city, I can't even find a woman who is proficient in Saxi language. His Majesty will come because I have taught him a few lessons before, so I sent someone before. Come to me and ask. Isn't that right? I recommended you to Your Majesty."

Zhuolin listened carefully to Professor Ji's words, and nodded in agreement.

An Xia's school for girls is indeed not as good as the previous dynasty.

In the past, only Anlan Academy had produced many female officials, and at that time it was not only Anlan Academy that was successful in girls' schools. On the contrary, after the establishment of An Xia, the royal family vigorously suppressed the status of women. The status of women was far inferior to that of the previous dynasty, and even more advanced Dongling. Many women's schools have also become places where they simply teach the three obediences and four virtues of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Only Anlan University has always insisted on teaching women the same knowledge as men, which is why Anlan College was almost shut down when Anxia was severely suppressed in the early and middle stages. Where can there be students in a school suppressed by the imperial court? Later, the school compromised and changed to only teach girls to read and write, and barely survived.

That is, in the past few decades, folk customs have gradually become more popular, and the royal family has begun to seek reforms, and Anlan University has gradually eased its anger.

Professor Ji urged, "This opportunity is rare, do it well. I read the papers you wrote several times, and it doesn't look like you can live in school. Maybe we will have a daughter in Anxia in the future. What about diplomats?"

Zhuolin blinked, "Thank you professor, I will try my best."
