Chapter 21: Questioning Sins
Since Jiang Dongyu won the first place in the whole college with a fast handover in the calligraphy and painting exam, he became famous for a while, and the students of Shuiyang College only knew at this time that their college not only had martial arts champions but also literary champions, and Jiang Dongyu's appearance was definitely worthy of the word handsome, and the title of the first beautiful man in Peach Blossom Town was by no means in vain, coupled with Jiang Dongyu's peculiar white hair, there were not a few suitors in the academy.
"You go first, I'll find the teacher to make up the lesson. The corners of Jiang Dongyu's mouth went up, revealing a smile.
"Oooh. Su nodded softly, and only after leaving the music school did she shake her head violently, "Why is a man so good-looking." ”
Liu Qingyan tapped the table with her fingers and quipped: "It seems that your good skin has caused you to harm many girls from good families." ”
Jiang Dongyu smiled and said nothing, and after a while, he finally found a spare string and began to replace it, while changing, he suddenly said: "I am better at harming a woman from a good family like the teacher. ”
Hearing this, Liu Qingyan's face turned red, and he grabbed Jiang Dongyu's collar, "Who do you say is a woman?"
"If you don't let go, I'm going to call it indecent assault. "Since Jiang Dongyu comprehended the meaning of the Great Cold, his clothes have always been thin, and he was dragged by Liu Qingyan like this, and he suddenly walked away a lot.
"Little rascals. Liu Qingyan snorted lightly and let go of Jiang Dongyu's collar.
"When we met for the first time, they hugged me and pulled me into the attic, and the second time we met, they pulled my clothes, and the hooligan said I still mean you?" Jiang Dongyu changed the strings of the guqin, fluctuated at will, and suddenly there was a burst of rhythm.
Liu Qingyan couldn't help but feel angry, what does it mean to throw yourself into the attic, pull your clothes? Looking at Jiang Dongyu's seemingly innocent face, Liu Qingyan once again reached out and dragged it over. And this time, how could Jiang Dongyu let her succeed again, but with a slight sideways, she was already five meters away.
"I didn't expect you to be so good, it's still the original thing, you accompany me to the Remnant Dream Pavilion to compete for the list, and I will let you pass the exam in the music department. Liu Qingyan clapped his hands, and he was no longer embarrassed by Jiang Dongyu.
"This condition is not equal, even if you don't give it to me, I can pass it, it's just an exam, it doesn't matter. Jiang Dongyu has this confidence, even if he can't sing a song now, one year is enough.
"If I don't let you pass, you won't be able to pass. Liu Qingyan said coldly.
"Your teacher is really unreasonable, one will open the back door for me, and the other will want to abuse his power to make things difficult for me, no wonder there is no Mr. in the academy, you are really not a good teacher. "Jiang Dongyu misses Mr. a little, it's been a year, I don't know how Peach Blossom Town is, Uncle De, Mr., Henghu, and ...... Han Mingsheng, Li Tianyi, thinking of this, Jiang Dongyu's body inadvertently revealed a chill.
"Tease you, don't want to forget it. Liu Qingyan took a step back, Jiang Dongyu's eyes just now made her very uncomfortable.
Jiang Dongyu knew that she had misunderstood, but he couldn't explain anything to her, so he asked, "Why do you have to compete for that list?"
"For the sake of a book collection, only talented and beautiful people have the opportunity to borrow the collection of the Remnant Dream Pavilion. Liu Qingyan's mood was obviously a little low.
"There are a lot of people who are more knowledgeable than me, if you don't look for the teacher of calligraphy and painting, why bother looking for me. Jiang Dongyu was very puzzled.
"This is a list of talented and beautiful people, not a teahouse for the elderly, there are strict restrictions on age, people over twenty-five years old can't compete for the list, put Wen Zhuangyuan in front of me and don't look for it, why should I do more. ”
"So you knew me from the beginning. Jiang Dongyu suddenly realized.
"I also saw it at Dean Wang's place occasionally, and speaking of which, when I saw your portrait at that time, Dean Wang was complaining about your portrait. Liu Qingyan replied.
"Huh. Jiang Dongyu sneered, "I knew that the dean of Shuiyang Academy had no tolerance and bullied the juniors, so I wouldn't have come to Shuiyang in the first place." ”
"Dean Wang has always been very good to people. Liu Qingyan wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Jiang Dongyu waving his hand, the head of the first courtyard in the empire is naturally not a bad person, but if he is not a bad person, he must be a good person, Wang Zhongyong is friendly to others, which Jiang Dongyu believes, but just because he won the title of his granddaughter's literary champion with his strength, he deliberately embarrassed him, no matter how much he loves Jiang Moyu and how much he has contributed to the academy, for Jiang Dongyu, Wang Zhongyong is a villain and does not deserve his respect.
This conversation broke up unhappily, Jiang Dongyu didn't want to compete for the list of talented and beautiful people, it was meaningless to him, he never felt that he was a great good, to help people in the world, he and Liu Qingyan were not familiar with each other.
When Jiang Dongyu returned to his residence, there was actually a guest at home, Ye Feng, his examiner during the town examination that year, was also dressed in white, folding a fan, and had a good demeanor, but the gaze that looked at Jiang Dongyu was very complicated.
Su gently brought them two cups of tea, and then sensibly left the room.
"Very beautiful woman. Ye Feng said.
"That's true. Jiang Dongyu had already guessed the purpose of his coming the moment he saw Ye Feng.
"No wonder you killed the soldiers of my City Lord's Mansion for her, in fact, you have long been found to be the most suspicious, but because Wang Lao's guarantee said that you don't know martial arts, so this matter has been waiting to be observed, and when you gave Luo Jiangnan a punch two days ago, the matter was concluded. Ye Feng explained, even if he knew that Jiang Dongyu was the murderer, it would be difficult for him to have a bad feeling for Jiang Dongyu.
Jiang Dongyu was a little surprised, Wang Zhongyong pressed him with power back then, and then lost face, Wang Zhongyong knew that he had already lost face, but he didn't expect that when the City Lord's Mansion investigated him, Wang Zhongyong would actually protect him, if it weren't for the rumors that the people of the academy had spread the word that Jiang Dongyu knocked Jiang Nan with a punch, then the City Lord's Mansion would still not come now.
"Then you're here to arrest me this time?" Jiang Dongyu asked.
"Anyway, you and your female companion have to go to the City Lord's Mansion with me, and it is because it is you that I came in person, and I did not alarm the others in the academy, otherwise it will be someone from the adjudication team who will come and bring you handcuffs to press you out of the academy, and the impact will be too great at that time, even if you are not guilty after the investigation, it will be a shadow. ”
"Do you think I can come back this time when I go to the City Lord's Mansion?" Jiang Dongyu sneered, Liu Changshu is a member of the Liu family, the three major martial arts families in Five Elements City, if Ye Feng really doesn't want to arrest him, this matter can be completely stopped, since he is here, how can he not give an explanation to the Liu family.
"If you and your female companion are not guilty, then I will protect you. Ye Feng said angrily.
"I know that you used to be a student of Sir, I don't doubt what you say, I just think you have a weak heart, let's go. Jiang Dongyu got up and took Su's gentle hand, which was very cold.
Ye Feng panted slightly, he understood that Jiang Dongyu was provoking him, but this really annoyed him, he had never been despised by others.
The City Lord's Mansion is the first time Jiang Dongyu came, but he didn't expect to come here as a crime, Jiang Dongyu came to a huge hall, there were already more than ten people here, and one of them Jiang Dongyu knew, it was Wang Zhongyong, the dean of Shuiyang Academy.
Jiang Dongyu sneered, what a big formation.
"Jiang Dongyu, are you guilty!" one of the middle-aged men asked.
Ye Fenghua, who was at the end, frowned, even if it was the turn of others to ask for the guilt, the Liu family, you are really presumptuous.
"Who are you who are qualified to ask me about my crimes?" Jiang Dongyu laughed, "Liu Changshu abused his power, coveted my treasures, and called the city guards to arrest me, and I killed him, what is the crime?"
"Bold, Liu Changshu is a court official, and he was framed by you for his innocence after his death, city lord, this person should be executed immediately. The middle-aged man said loudly.
"It turns out that you are not the city lord, what a big shelf, I thought you had the final say in the Five Elements City. Jiang Dongyu chuckled, of course he knew that the middle-aged man was not the city lord, and he had been in the Five Elements City for a year, so how could he not know the portrait of the city lord.
Ye Fenghua waved his hand, signaled everyone to be quiet, and said: "Jiang Dongyu, as a literary champion, and you have been given the name of Mr. Xiao, you have a good future, why do you want to slaughter my soldiers of the Five Elements City on the street, you can tell me where your grievances come from, if you are not guilty, the lord of this city will return your innocence." ”
"City Lord. The middle-aged man interjected.
"Liu Fuqing, please pay attention to your identity, does the city lord still have to listen to your command when interrogating others?"
Liu didn't dare, but his parents and children died, and when he saw the murderer at this time, his mood was difficult to calm down. The middle-aged man bowed slightly, and a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes.
"Restore my innocence? Liu Changshu is a member of the City Lord's Mansion, and you will judge me by the City Lord? As soon as Jiang Dongyu said this, even Ye Fenghua was not good-looking, this kid was too arrogant.
Wang Zhongyong couldn't help but shake his head on the side, why can't you understand the situation?
"It is impossible to face the saint, although you are the champion of literature, but with the change of the national examination system, there will be a champion of literature every year, you are just the first, so special, you are given the name of Mr. Xiao, my father is very busy, these small things are not worth his personal handling, since you think Uncle Ye can't judge you, then how about I?" A young man in a yellow robe walked out of the crowd, this person had not been in front of the stage before, not attracting attention, very low-key, coming out at this time, couldn't help but surprise everyone.
"Who are you?" Jiang Dongyu asked, he didn't expect that there would be a prince in the City Lord's Mansion.
"I am the sixth son of His Majesty today, my name is clear, can I judge you? Whether it is the City Lord's Mansion or the Liu family, it will not affect my trial of you, and at the same time, this is the first time we have met, there is no personal grudge, and it can be fair. Chu Qingliu's words were very kind, and even a little polite, with his identity, he could do this, even Jiang Dongyu had no reason to refuse, so he could only nod.
At that moment, Jiang Dongyu said the matter as it was, although the storage magic weapon was valuable, it was not surprising for a prince.
Chu Qingliu listened very seriously, and didn't mention anything about the storage of magic weapons, and only after Jiang Dongyu finished narrating did he speak: "According to what you say, if what you say is true, this person named Liu Changshu really deserves death." ”
Hearing this, Liu Fuqing's face was ugly, his son was told to his face that he deserved to die, but the person who opened his mouth was a person he would never afford to offend.
"But he has been killed, we can't hold him accountable, although the person you killed deserves death, but you still killed the court officials, you don't have that right, this is a headache, how to deal with you." Chu Qingliu's words undoubtedly acquiesced to the fact that Jiang Dongyu's words were true, and no one present said anything to investigate the authenticity, even Liu Fuqing didn't mention it, what kind of virtue Liu Changshu is, he knows best.
"The death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped, so how about sentencing you to a year in prison?" Chu Qingliu asked, such a punishment can be said to be very light, as Chu Qingliu said, even if Liu Changshu deserves death, but after all, he has killed the court officials and has already touched the laws of the empire, even if he has a meritorious name, he must be punished, otherwise why should he be punished by the law?
"It's not good, I don't accept it!" Jiang Dongyu said coldly, let alone a year, not a day.
