Rebirth: Traveling To Ancient Times As A Companion Reading Chapter 23

Beijing

Joey was sent down the mountain the next day.

After leaving Fengpeng Mountain, the carriage did not return to Jiangzhou City.

Joey was sent directly to the capital, riding in the same carriage as Lou Ling.

Joey was sitting in Lou’s comfortable, spacious and non-vibrating carriage. He didn’t feel any motion sickness at all. He couldn’t help but sigh, “It’s good to have money.”

Lou Ling was sitting opposite and couldn’t help raising his eyebrows when he heard this, “The Qin Mansion is not short of money.”

Joey: “That’s different. No matter how rich the Qin family is, it’s not as rich as your Lou family. Even if the interior of the carriage is luxurious and comfortable, even the outside is made of various silk and soft materials. No wonder it can be eaten in Jiangzhou City for seven consecutive days.”

Lou Ling ignored him.

After a moment of silence in the carriage, Joey came to his senses and explained, “I really don’t care about that bowl of porridge anymore.” Anyway, he had already taken revenge on those who deserved revenge, so there was really no need to care about it.

“Really?” Lou Ling looked at the black cat that had been hiding at Joey’s feet and glared at him fiercely, and asked lightly.

Joey followed his gaze to his feet and was startled, “Black handkerchief?!”

Joey bent down and picked up Hei Pa, “Why are you hiding here? I thought you didn’t want to leave with me.”

“Meow.”

The black handkerchief rubbed Joey’s hand, but it was still hairy and wary of the person opposite.

Joey held Heipa in his arms and did not persuade it not to be afraid. After all, the man opposite him almost killed Heipa that day at Lou’s house.He is no longer afraid of Lou Ling, but that doesn’t mean Hei Pa is not afraid.

Realizing that Lou Ling’s eyes were still on Hei Pa, Joey mentioned other things in an attempt to divert Lou Ling’s attention, “His Royal Highness is really good at predicting things. My mother came back from chanting sutras last night and asked me to follow you to the capital, so she just asked me to leave today.”

Lou Ling: “Isn’t this normal?”

Joey: “You didn’t explain it clearly yesterday. Why?”

Lou Ling glanced at Joey and said without explaining much, “You’ll know after we get to the capital.”

Seeing that Lou Ling didn’t want to say anything more, Joey hugged the black handkerchief and didn’t bother to ask anymore. The pirates were already on board anyway, so how could he still jump off halfway?

Fart, even if he dies now, he will die clearly.

By the time the group arrived in the capital, more than half a month had passed.

The carriage passed through the city gate and drove all the way into the city.

There are row upon row of shops in the city, and the vendors and vendors on the street are all hawking vigorously. There are a lot of people coming and going, it is crowded and noisy, and the market is noisy. The whole street seems lively.

Joey opened the curtain and looked out curiously.Black Pa jumped on his shoulders and leaned his head against the window, staring at the people passing by outside with Joey.

Lou Ling, who was sitting opposite and reading a book, heard the movement and couldn’t help but raise her eyelids and glance at the person and cat in front of her.Seeing the smile on Joey’s face, Lou Ling paused as she was about to turn the next page.However, in just a moment, he calmly withdrew his eyes, turned to the next page, and continued to do his own thing.

The wheels rolled over the stone road, swaying through five streets, and finally stopped in front of a wealthy family.

Joey followed Lou Ling and got out of the carriage. What he saw was the three characters “Linwangfu” clearly engraved on the plaque on the top of the red door.

“Sir.”

Minghuan and Minghua were in a carriage behind them and had already got off the carriage and had been waiting for a long time.

Joey responded.

The moment the boy guarding the gate saw the carriage, he had already sent someone in to report it.

Within a moment, the housekeeper of the palace came out with people.

“His Royal Highness.”

The housekeeper saluted Lou Ling, and then asked people to tidy up the things on the carriage.

“Huh?” Joey didn’t mind them bringing Lou Ling’s things back to the palace, but when he saw his few belongings being moved away by people from the palace, he couldn’t help but stop him, “Those are my things, not your prince’s.”

The person who was carrying things paused, looked at Joey, and then at Lou Ling.

The housekeeper did not ask a few people to put down their things immediately, but asked Lou Ling: “Your Majesty, this…”

Lou Ling: “Move everyone in.”

Joey was unhappy when he heard this, “I’m here to read to you, not sell it to you. Why do you keep my things privately?”

Lou Ling glanced at him but said nothing.

Joey was too lazy to talk nonsense with this person. Over the past half month, he had already known what kind of person Lou Ling was. Instead of wasting words here, he might as well do it himself.

“Minghuan Minghua, help me put things back.”

The two people waiting aside immediately stepped forward.

But just before a few people took action, the housekeeper stretched out his hand to stop them, “Why is this young master so anxious?”

Joey: “That’s my thing. I’m not in a hurry. How can you be anxious for me? Go away and stay out of the way!”

“You don’t want them to move things down, do you want to stay on the street tonight?” Lou Ling finally spoke.

Joey: “My mother is from the Qiao family. What’s wrong with me going to live at my grandfather’s house?”

Lou Ling: “Do you know where the Qiao family is? Do they know you?”

Joey: “I don’t know. Can Minghuan and the others just know?”

Lou Ling: “Are you sure they know?”

Joey turned his head and found that Ming Huan and Ming Hua seemed a little confused.He felt something was wrong, “Aren’t you two from the capital?”

Minghuan became even more confused, “No, we sisters are natives of Jiangzhou and were sold to the Qin family. We later served my wife.”

Joey: “…Why didn’t you two tell me earlier?”

Lou Ling just looked at Joey, “So?”

Joey withdrew his hand that was on the luggage very naturally, “Hey, let’s move it.”

Anyway, I have been staying with this person for more than half a month, so this night is not bad. It is better than sleeping on the street.

Lou Ling turned and left.

Joey looked at his back, a little hesitant to follow him.

However, before he could make a decision, Lou Ling turned around and asked, “Are you still not leaving?”

Joey followed.

–

The layouts of Linwang Mansion and Jiangzhou Lou Family are completely different.

If the Lou family seems to be built in the water, then Linwang Mansion is on the other extreme. There is no rockery or water in the entire mansion, not even a lake.

Joey walked next to Lou Ling, looked around, and couldn’t help but asked curiously: “Your father… no, I should say your father, doesn’t he like you?”

The people in the palace who were following him staggered a few steps when they heard Joey’s question.

Lou Ling didn’t squint his eyes, “Why doesn’t he like me?”

Joey: “Isn’t it because you like water? Even the Lou family can build a water curtain cave for you. Why is the Linwang Mansion in the capital so dry and there is no water at all?”

Lou Ling stopped and turned to look at Joey: “When did I say I like water?”

Joey: “Then the newly built mansion of your Lou family was built according to your preferences. Isn’t it true that your father is not as interested in you as your mother and concubine? It shouldn’t be… you are not…”

Joey wanted to say something else, but a voice from behind interrupted his thoughts of continuing.

“Why are you back so late?”

Joey was still wondering who dared to shout in front of Lou Ling, but when he turned around, he found a man in his thirties, wearing a black four-clawed dragon robe, standing not far away with his hands behind his back, looking at them.

Joey now used his toes to figure out who it was.He shut up immediately, lowered his head and started thinking of ways to escape.

But before Joey could figure out how to sneak away, the people over there came over.

Lou Ling shouted to the visitor: “Father.”

This time, before my mind could turn around, my body reacted first.

Joey followed the people behind him who knelt down and saluted the person in front of him, “Your Majesty.”

Xiao Feng waved his hand, “Get up, everyone.”

Without paying much attention to the people around him, Xiao Feng looked at Lou Ling and said, “Have you had enough fun with your mother in Jiangzhou?”

Lou Ling: “Yeah.”

Xiao Feng: “That’s fine. Have you received the letter I sent you a month ago?”

Lou Ling: “I got it.”

Xiao Feng: “Do you know what you will do tomorrow?”

Lou Ling: “I know.”

Xiao Feng: “Are you all ready?”

Lou Ling: “Absolutely.”

Xiao Feng: “That’s fine. By the way, your mother said last time that she found a reading companion for you in Jiangzhou. That person was a child of the Qin family in Jiangzhou. Where is the child now?”

Joey originally thought that the two fathers and sons were just catching up on old times, and he could leave when the conversation was over.But he didn’t expect that Lou Ling’s father would suddenly bring the topic to him.

Lou Ling looked at Joey.

Xiao Feng’s eyes also turned around and saw Joey, “Are you the reading companion Ahri found for Ling’er?”

Joey skillfully put a smile on his face and said, “Yes, Your Majesty.”

Xiao Feng looked Joey up and down. He was not tall and probably younger than Lou Ling, but he looked quite well-behaved. I guess Ah Li personally selected him for Lou Ling, so he couldn’t be wrong.

Thinking about it, Xiao Feng asked, “How old are you this year?”

Joey: “Eleven is in one month.”

Xiao Feng: “Do you know what the prince should do to accompany him to study?”

Joey smiled, “I don’t know.”

Xiao Feng: “Of course, the accompanying student has to go to and from school with the Crown Prince. Tomorrow, when the Crown Prince returns to Taixue, there will be an exam, and you, as the accompanying student, will naturally come with you. So, starting from tomorrow, you and the Crown Prince will go to the Imperial Academy together.”

Joey: “Tomorrow?!”

Xiao Feng heard Joey’s obviously shocked tone. He grimaced, and his already majestic face became even colder and unapproachable, “You are just a companion of the Crown Prince.”

Joey quickly bowed his head and apologized, “No, it’s just that the prince just returned to Beijing today, and the Qiao family…”

Xiao Feng: “I have already taken care of all related matters. As for the Qiao family… you should accompany the prince to attend these few days of classes first, and then do the rest after the prince takes a rest.”

Having said that, Joey could only say, “Yes.”

Xiao Feng didn’t stay long. After arranging things, he turned around and left.

Only Joey who collapsed and Lou Ling who stood quietly watching the show were left.

Joey scratched his head helplessly and broke down: “You didn’t say you would have to take a test on the first day you came back! It’s the first day in the capital and you’re not familiar with the place, and I have to go to school with you!”

Lou Ling kindly reminded: “It’s not me, it’s us.”

Joey: “…What did you say?!”

Lou Ling: “I forgot to tell you that every imperial disciple in the Imperial Academy must accompany him in his exams.”

Joey felt like he was going to die, “But I didn’t even learn!”

Lou Ling: “That’s your business.”

“?!!”

Holy shit, go to hell!Fuck you, this damn feudal society!

Banxia novel, a lot of fun
