Wen Zhili stared at him with a serious expression, as if trying to see if this man was lying. Wen Zhichu had an interested expression on his face, waiting for him to continue.

"Why did you tell me this, and why should I believe you?" Wen Zhili's tone was calm.

The man just smiled, and his tone was sincere: "I once said that I would repay Master Wen." ”

"Xu Jingzhi is your master, how could you betray him in order to repay me? Don't take me for a fool. Wen Zhili still looked at him calmly.

"The master of the villain only recognizes my young lady, and my young lady is dead, and I have no master." There was a hint of loneliness in the man's tone.

"Since you only recognize Xu Rouling, then I can't trust you even more. Everyone in the capital knows that Xu Rouling was killed by my Wen Zhili. If you love her so much, why don't you avenge her? There was a hint of sarcasm on Wen Zhili's lips.

"No, I know it's not you, she was killed by the master." There was a gentle smile on the corner of the man's mouth, "That day, I heard with my own ears that the lord and the lady were discussing the matter of the young lady, and they decided to give up the young lady and save the others in consideration of the overall situation. It was only then that I learned that the young master was able to pass the exam purely because someone took the exam on his behalf. ”

There was a hint of sadness in the man's expression when he said this: "Miss is really obedient, the old lady asked her to do whatever she wanted, but in the end she ended up like this." Actually, I also thought it was strange before, the young master is just a second ancestor who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, how can he be lifted? That day I realized that this was the case. ”

"You said so much, did you tell me in order to avenge Xu Rouling?" Wen Zhili's eyes were full of interest.

"Originally, I wasn't going to tell you about it, until today I went to Xu Mansion to sort out Miss's relics, and I was directly blasted out. And after the death of the young lady, the lord was indifferent, and the lady was only sad for a while. They hadn't even thought about taking the young lady home. Isn't this kind of family more hateful than you? The man's smile was bitter.

"You're genuine to her." There was a hint of appreciation in Wen Zhili's tone.

"I'm just a subordinate, what can I do if I'm sincere? I have already told Lord Wen about this, and it is up to you to believe it or not. Can I go and collect Miss's belongings now? The man's mood gradually calmed down.

Wen Zhili asked his subordinates to take him down, and then he stood in the hall thinking about something. Wen Zhichu leaned over and asked, "Do you really believe him?" What if it's Xu Jingzhi's trick? ”

"He wasn't lying." Wen Zhili's expression was calm, "I can see it." ”

After speaking, Wen Zhili seemed to have thought about what to do and was ready to leave the house. When Wen Zhichu saw him leave, he also wanted to follow and ask, but heard Wen Zhili ask him not to follow.

Seeing Wen Zhili say this, Wen Zhichu was also happy. He understands that he is not an official, and there is nothing wrong with handing over these things to Wen Zhili next, he just listens to his brother's arrangement.

Wen Zhili got into the carriage and gave Lu Yu a few words, and Lu Yu drove forward.

Coming to the door of a building that was not grand but very elegant, Lu Yu went to knock on the door. The person who opened the door saw that the person who came was polite, and hurriedly went in to report.

After a while, someone came to lead the way. A very elegant middle-aged man sat in the hall and waited for him. He was not without a salute, he had always been haughty.

Wen Zhili didn't mind, and said gently: "Scholar, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

This person is Jian You's father, Jian Bo.

"Lord Wen's words are wrong, I remember that we met last time when the emperor gave him a marriage." Jian Bo doesn't have a good attitude, he is the same kind of person as Jian You in his bones, and he doesn't look down on these people who play with power.

"The scholar is not in the court now, Wen thinks it's a pity." Wen Zhili's tone was calm.

Jian Bo snorted coldly and said, "It's the same with my uncompetitive son. ”

"Master Jane is not the same as a scholar. No, it should be said that it is different from most people who are officials. Wen Zhili smiled slightly when he said this.

This smile was mockery in Jian Bo's eyes, but he didn't care anymore. He has long ceased to be an official in the court, and now these people have nothing to do with him.

"I wonder why Lord Wen is coming to the Humble House?" Jian Bo just looked at Wen Zhili lightly.

"I'm just here to visit the scholars." Wen Zhili's expression did not change, and he sat down opposite Jian Bo to take care of himself.

"To put it bluntly, the old man doesn't like to beat around the bush." Jian Bo's tone was serious.

Wen Zhili didn't plan to continue to talk to him, so he said, "I want Zhen Xueyi to find out about Xu Xiu's cheating in the liberal arts exam." ”

"What did you say?" Jian Bo was obviously a little excited, for this kind of thing, if Jian Bo's personality was true, he would definitely not let it go. Jian Bo has a very stubborn temper, and he admits death, and he has the arrogance of a scholar. He absolutely did not allow this kind of deception to happen.

Wen Zhili knew Jian Bo's personality, and there was a sense of imperativeness. He looked at Jian Bo and said in a calm voice: "Scholar, you shouldn't let go of this kind of thing, right?" ”

"How do I know if you're telling the truth?" Jian Bo looked at him suspiciously, he would not easily believe Wen Zhili.

"Whether this is true or not, I hope that the university scholar can help with this matter." Wen Zhili's expression was respectful, and he was actually respectful of Jian Bo.

"I can ask Xueyi to help you look into this. However, aren't you worried that Xueyi is in league with them? Jian Bo's eyes were inquiring.

Wen Zhili smiled slightly when he heard this: "I believe in Lord Zhen." ”

Zhen Xueyi's gentleness and etiquette are very clear, he is an upright person, and he will never do such a thing. In addition, he is a student of Jian Bo, and he has some shadows of Jian Bo in the world, and he will not be easily persuaded.

"I remember that Xueyi and you have no friendship, why do you believe him?" Jian Bo had some surprise in his eyes.

"Because he's a bachelor's student." Wen Zhili smiled and explained, "The people who are taught by the scholars must disdain to do such things. Lord Jane is like this, and Lord Zhen is naturally the same. ”

Hearing this, Jian Bo laughed and said, "The old man who said this can't refuse. ”

"Then Wen Zhili thanked the scholar again." Wen Zhili got up and was about to salute, but was stopped by Jian Bo.

He looked at Wen Zhili's serious expression: "I can ask Xueyi to help find out about this matter, but Lord Wen also has to promise me one thing." ”

"Scholar, please." Wen Zhili made a gesture of please.
