Chapter Thirty-Five: The Sinister Gentleman

  Li Yunfei has been feeling depressed for the past two days, having to be specially taken care of by this petty Mr. every day, especially finding all sorts of excuses to make him copy various books. Every time Li Yunfei puts his hard work in front of this Mr., he doesn't even give Li Yunfei a glance, just says "put it there" and then hastily picks up Li Yan's manuscript to read carefully, this is still the self-esteem of this Mr. at play.

  He was originally very unwilling to hear that the Emperor wanted this King of Qin to come here to study, why? You think! The children of those princes and ministers are all spoiled, now another son of the Emperor comes, isn't it even more unbearable? But just as he was about to refuse, the Emperor brought out conditions that made him unable to refuse. When he saw the good handwriting written by Li Yunfei, he was immediately stunned. Such perfect calligraphy is really too attractive for a scholar, especially a great Confucian like himself!

  Li Yunfei had no idea that he was being sold by his own father, and seeing the master's energy all focused on the book, Li Yunfei felt depressed - what's so good about this dull book? He couldn't imagine that the master was infatuated not with the content of the book, but with the words on the white paper. Looking at the unique font above, the master stroked his goatee, savoring it with a sound of satisfaction. This is definitely not something a young person can write! The font alone requires decades of practice to produce!

  Li Yunfei has been suffering a lot these two days, this gentleman in order to study Li Yunfei's font, specially found some more tricky books for Li Yunfei, making Li Yunfei feel that his wrist is not his own anymore, it's really too tiring! However, Li Yunfei also gained something, the biggest benefit is that his font has been further improved, and he can write even more freely now!

  "Yunfei brother, how are you? Is everything all right?" Li Qingchu stood outside the school building and looked at Li Yunfei walking out with a haggard face, asking curiously.

  "Brother Qing Shu, you're really a good brother! Unlike others who always show respect when they see me, but there's no real meaning behind it!" Li Yun Fei said warmly as he put his arm around Li Qing Shu's shoulder.

  Ever since Mr. said his identity out of malice, he has become the focus of all his classmates, but what makes Li Yunfei depressed is that he also lost the opportunity to make friends with them. When communicating with these people, who is not extremely polite? Moreover, now that he is bearing the title of Qin Wang, he can't get close to them either. So except for Li Qing Shu, who still treats him as a good friend, he has no deep connections with anyone else.

  "Alright! Stop it! Or people will think we have a special relationship, which wouldn't be good. Tomorrow is the day to pick up the earrings, what do you think?" Li Qing Shu was also extremely surprised after knowing Li Yun Fei's identity, thinking back to how Little Chili Pepper and Li Yun Fei had acted strangely before, he realized that Little Chili Pepper must have known Li Yun Fei's identity from the start.

  Li Qing had been considering whether to deepen his relationship with Li Yunfei in this identity, after all, the other party was the high and mighty King of Qin. Although his own father was also a noble Duke and even hailed as the military god of the Tang Dynasty, but from the perspective of nobility alone, he was still one notch lower than Li Yunfei. However, later on, Li Yunfei still didn't have any airs about him, and was almost no different from before, which gave Li Qing a bit more good impression, especially since Li Yunfei's reputation was now quite large, just based on those few famous poems of his, there was absolutely the suspicion that he would be pushed onto the pedestal.

  It can be said that Li Yunfei now has a certain status in the minds of the literati in the Tang Dynasty, just like he has become a fan of this King of Qin. Of course, the premise is that he knows what a fan is? Don't think it's just about eating well!

  "Alright! Stop daydreaming, let's head back first! Isn't there a spring outing tomorrow? I'll send those things to your house then. These days, Xiaolian has been cooped up too. Let's go together tomorrow!" As soon as Xiaolian was mentioned, Li Yunfei's face revealed an extra hint of happiness, which made Li Qingyu even more curious - what kind of woman could make a prince remember her so fondly?

  "Xiao Lian is really beautiful! She can make our great talent, Qin Wang Gongzi, miss her so much, it's really enviable!" Li Qing Shu said this, absolutely from the heart. Now, I estimate that Li Yun Fei has already become a famous person outside, especially since he has become the white horse prince of many young ladies!

  In such a situation, he is still so infatuated, it's really surprising. In fact, he doesn't know that the monogamous system has long been deeply ingrained in people's minds as a member of later generations. Moreover, the most important thing is that Li Yunfei has not yet truly integrated into this society. He now only accepts Xiaolian's existence, and even he himself hasn't realized it. Now he seems to be just like an onlooker witnessing history. Maybe when he really accepts this fact, things will get better.

  "Haha! Actually, I'm not as great as you said, I'm just an ordinary person. Take away the big hat of Qin Wang on my head, and I'm no different from you, with one nose and two eyes. In the past, I really didn't have any extravagant hopes? Now I have everything, what else can't I be satisfied with?" Li Yunfei said somewhat sadly, thinking back to his own mediocrity in the past, and the environment he was in for the first decade or so of this life, what more could he ask for?

  "Ah! Your handwriting is so good-looking, it's different from the people in the past. Is it also created by you? " Li Qing saw Li Yunfei showing that expression, and didn't know why his heart felt like being pricked by a needle, it was so painful. Then, suppressing the feeling of heartache, he changed the subject, he also knew that Li Yunfei was also a person with a story, maybe after going home he could ask his father about it. As one of the founding fathers, he should know some things about this Qin Wang! Wonder what kind of life he had in the past?

  "That's for sure! I seriously suspect that Mr. is trying to steal the teacher, but he can't bear to lose face, so he's forcing me to copy books like this. Hmph! Next time if it's still like this, I'll definitely ask him a few questions!" Li Yunfei heard Li Qing's words and suddenly understood one thing, which was why he was so angry, for his own selfish desires, he was torturing himself like this. This point actually made Li Yunfei realize that he had underestimated the literati's craze for a new font. At first, Li Yunfei thought it was Mr.'s revenge, but unexpectedly it turned out to be this situation. If not for his own cleverness, he would still be in the dark!

  "Hiss! Why do I feel a bit chilly? It should be warm spring now, how can it feel cold? This is strange!" Now Mr. is still holding Li Yunfei's manuscript and indulging in it, suddenly feeling a chill on his back, wondering what happened?
