Chapter 153 Doll
Zeyutang.

"Brother Quan!"

"Brother Quan..."

Xiao Tao skipped and hopped into Sheng Changquan's yard, shouting excitedly.

Because Xiao Tao and Sheng Changquan had a good relationship, and Ze Yu Tang was located in a remote area, even if they were a little unruly, it wouldn't be a big deal and no one would notice. So Xiao Tao often came here to play around and relieve stress.

At this moment, Xiao Tao regained her lively nature and prepared to go to Sheng Changquan to explain about Aunt Wei. Unfortunately, she was a step too late and did not see Sheng Changquan.

"what?"

"Brother Quan? Where is he?"

As someone who had delivered Sheng Changquan, Xiao Tao naturally called him "brother," which sounded like the attitude of an elder sister.

"It's Sister Xiaotao!"

At this moment, Ziyuan and Jiegeng, who were in Sheng Changquan's room, also saw Xiaotao and immediately greeted her with smiles: "Sister Xiaotao, are you here to see the young master?"

"Hmm, where is your young master?"

"Oh! Sister Xiaotao, you're a step too late! Our young master just went out with Brother Xu, it seems he has something to take care of!"

Kikyo was a very straightforward person. She said quickly, "If Sister Momo is in a hurry, you can leave a message for us first. We will tell the young master as soon as he returns!"

"This……"

Xiao Tao thought for a moment and then said, "Okay, when Quan-ge'er comes back, tell him that Aunt Wei will be arriving at noon today, and tell him to go and greet her when he has time!"

"Has Aunt Wei arrived?"

The two maids in Sheng Changquan's room were startled and quickly said, "Don't worry, Sister Xiaotao, we'll remember!"

Ziyuan and Jiegeng had naturally heard Cuiming mention Aunt Wei before.

"Ok!"

Xiao Tao nodded, but didn't linger. She simply turned around and went back to Shou'an Hall.

……

The Duke of Qi's residence, Qi Heng's study.

"Young Master, are you reading a book?"

As Qi Heng's personal servant, Buwei naturally had to accompany his master while he read. However, after standing aside and watching for a long time, he discovered that Qi Heng was always looking at a certain page of the book in his hand and had no intention of turning the page at all.

Moreover, he kept grinning like an idiot, like a landlord's silly son!
This naturally caused Buwei great concern.

After all, the imperial examination was just around the corner, but Qi Heng, as a student, was absent-minded and absent-minded, even losing focus on the most important task of reviewing his studies!

In this state, how can one not worry?

Putting aside everything else, let's just consider the worst-case scenario—if Qi Heng fails this time, Princess Pingning of the manor will surely be furious and thoroughly investigate everything around Qi Heng!

After all, as Qi Heng's mother, she naturally wanted to find out the reasons for her son's failure in the imperial examination and investigate the problems involved!
This will inevitably expose the affair between Qi Heng and Minglan. In particular, the secret that Qi Heng had kept hidden from the Qi State Duke's mansion, which served as a bridge between the two, will naturally be exposed to Princess Pingning.

As a servant of the Duke of Qi's mansion, Buwei naturally knew the seriousness of the matter; if things went wrong, his life could even be in danger!
Therefore, they had no choice but to try to urge Qi Heng to improve himself, hoping that he could save himself by passing the imperial examination. After all, under the current circumstances, only Qi Heng's success in the examination could smooth things over.

"Master!"

"Master?"

"what?"

Amidst the continuous shouts, Qi Heng finally came to his senses.

"What's wrong? No way!"

Even though he was disturbed, Qi Heng's eyes still held a smile, making him look extremely happy!
"Is there something you need?" "Young Master, are you... are you reading?"

After hesitating for a long time, Buwei finally couldn't hold back any longer. He looked at Qi Heng, who was smiling and seemed completely unaware of the danger, and reminded him, "Young Master, don't forget, the Sixth Miss is still waiting for you to pass the imperial examination with flying colors!"

"Huh? Hehe!"

Qi Heng was somewhat amused by what Buwei said and couldn't help but say, "Buwei, you don't understand!"

"Sixth Sister wouldn't care about these things!"

A pinkish glint flashed in Qi Heng's eyes, as if he were recalling the white moonlight in his heart.

"Sixth Sister is not a vain person!"

"The sixth sister I know is just a silly, somewhat confused girl, but she's also a good girl who loves to work hard for others!"

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and Qi Heng was now completely lost in his own fantasy.

Ever since that polo match, Qi Heng had realized that he was different in Minglan's heart. Perhaps it was because of the disparity in their status that Minglan deliberately distanced herself from him.

Once he understood this, Qi Heng immediately became happy.

In fact, you could say they were extremely excited!
Especially after Qi Heng returned home and retreated to his study to "read," his thoughts wandered even more wildly. He would daydream about romantic moments with Minglan in the future, imagining romantic scenes under the moon and flowers...

"But, young master!"

Seeing that Qi Heng was slowly getting lost in his own imagination again, Bu Wei finally couldn't help but confess: "Don't forget, things between you and the Sixth Miss are still not settled!"

"Especially with the Empress, it's even more difficult to get through to her!"

"Young master, only by trying can you have any chance of getting the Empress to accept this marriage!"

"Ok?"

Qi Heng was finally moved by Bu Wei's words!

"That's right, not at all, you're right!"

Qi Heng put down the book he hadn't turned a page in a long time and said, "I must pass this imperial examination!"

Seeing that his young master had finally regained his fighting spirit, Buwei's heart was also greatly encouraged!

"That's great, young master! It's best if you can figure it out!"

"Ok!"

Qi Heng nodded, seemingly understanding Buwei's good intentions and preparing to study, but in reality, he was still immersed in his own world, believing that he could overcome all external difficulties on his own to marry Minglan.

At this moment, Buwei was unaware of Qi Heng's current state, only assuming that he had truly put aside other thoughts and was preparing to study hard, so he was naturally overjoyed.

"However, no, there's something else I need you to do for me!"

"what's up?"

After Qi Heng nodded, Buwei finally felt relieved.

"Hehe, no, I want to give these clay dolls to my sixth sister!"

As Qi Heng spoke, he took out a wooden box from under his desk. "These are the two dolls!"

Qi Heng slowly opened the box, revealing the chubby baby inside.

"No, you just need to give this to Sixth Sister, that's all!"

"Sixth Sister, of course she'll understand!"
