Chapter 36: The Moment of Reversal

Yu Hua opened the envelope, and there was a thin piece of paper in the envelope, with only a short sentence on it.

"Ask Tenglong Guoyun?"

The moment he saw this line of words, Yu Hua was also stunned for a moment.

He is just a martial artist from a small place in the countryside who has just been admitted to the martial arts academy, and it is too difficult for him to ask himself about the national fortune of Tenglong Kingdom.

This question should be asked to the national teacher, prime minister, and general, how can he be answered by just an ordinary person.

Thinking like this, he was suddenly shocked in his heart, could it be that the data flow in his mind was exposed?

If this is the case, then it is not surprising that the Tenglong Emperor asked this question.

The flow of data in his mind was exposed, and it was extremely bad news for him.

In such a situation, he was at risk of being caught and sliced at any time.

But the question in front of him determines his life and death, and if he doesn't answer truthfully, he will immediately be thrown into a prison and obediently waiting to be beheaded.

Thinking of this, Yu Hua made a decision, he had no choice, and he had to answer this question.

The teachers on the side were all surprised, obviously they didn't expect that His Majesty's decision on Yu Hua's life and death test would be a simple question.

Yu Hua's cheating in the exam is not big or small, but since it has reached His Majesty's ears, there is almost no room for negotiation, with His Majesty's status and status, he doesn't care about the life and death of such a martial artist at all, and the situation in front of him is beyond their expectations.

Mu Yun, the dean of the Martial Academy, got up and walked to the side of the national teacher, and he asked in a low voice, "Master of the National Teacher, is the above question difficult?"

Yu Hua's performance these days has been seen by them, such an outstanding junior, as the dean, naturally hopes that he can stay in the martial arts academy and strengthen the martial academy.

But after all, he couldn't decide, Mu Yun looked at Yu Hua and asked with some concern.

Compared to him, the face of the national teacher is much more plain, as he said before, no matter how good Yu Hua's talent is, he is just a drop in the ocean, and he may be regarded as a treasure in the Tenglong Martial Academy, but looking at the entire Tenglong Kingdom, he is just an ordinary martial artist.

He shook his head and said lightly: "Your Majesty's test, even I don't know, but what is written on it may be that question." ”

As a national teacher, he knows more things than everyone present, and these secrets naturally cannot be revealed casually, he said mysteriously.

"The question?"

"Yes, this is a secret, and I naturally can't reveal it to you, but one thing I can tell you is that even I can't answer this question. ”

As soon as these words came out, the entire office suddenly became solemn.

The national teacher is extremely resourceful, and it is simply difficult to find someone smarter than him in the entire Tenglong Kingdom, and even he can't answer the question, does Yu Hua have any hope of answering it?

No one had hope in him.

"After all, Yu Hua is a kid, he doesn't understand the rules, so he rashly did something that violated the law of Tenglong, besides, this matter is also Qin Zhen's fault, Yu Hua's responsibility can only be regarded as secondary, I wonder if the national teacher has any other way to save Yu Hua's life?"

The stakes are very high, and at this time, he can't care about helping Qin Zhen clear up the relationship, you must know that the answer to this question is related to Yu Hua's life and death, in comparison, it is nothing to let Qin Zhen suffer a little grievance.

He took the responsibility on Qin Zhen, Qin Zhen listened, raised his eyebrows and did not object, he also knew that he also had his responsibility for the development of the matter to this point.

As the dean of the Dan Academy, even Emperor Tenglong didn't dare to touch him easily, at most he would be punished, which was nothing compared to Yu Hua's life.

Qin Zhen acquiesced to Mu Yun's words, but the national teacher's face still did not change, and he shook his head.

"I don't know if I say this, I already knew it when the scholar came to me before. Regarding this matter, I also make a suggestion to His Majesty that he not hold Yu Hua accountable. This opportunity in front of me was also something that I and the scholar had fought for with great difficulty, if it weren't for the existence of that person, His Majesty might not have given Yu Hua a chance to try. ”

When he said this, all the teachers present were silent, and everyone felt the helplessness in his words.

Hearing this, Ji Yuan also sighed, and at this time, he finally felt his insignificance.

Previously, with the support of the Ji family, everyone in the capital was polite to him, but here, he found that his so-called status was so worthless.

At this time, he finally understood the pressure his grandfather was under, the Ji family looked beautiful on the surface, but in fact it was like a broken ship, which could be swallowed by this boundless wave at any time.

"Let you be so arrogant before, okay, Your Majesty Shengming, if you want me to say, what kind of opportunity do you give to go directly to the heavenly prison, and wait for the autumn queen to ask for beheading, no, no, no, directly send a Praetorian Guard to beat him to death, this is happy. ”

Lin Zunwu walked in at some point, he stood near Ji Yuan, feeling the almost stagnant atmosphere in the office, he sneered and whispered.

When Ji Yuan heard his words, he turned his gaze to him, and his eyes became fierce.

"Brother Yu, although I can't help you in this matter, I will definitely do your request, this villain who framed you, I will definitely let him die a good death!"

Noticing Ji Yuan's vicious gaze, Lin Zunwu smiled and said, "Ah, is Ji Gongzi angry? I didn't expect that on the face of Ji Gongzi, who is famous in the capital, I can still see such an incompetent and angry expression, it's really a long insight!"

He continued: "But don't be delusional, you have already heard the words of the National Teacher, the answer to this question, even the National Teacher can't answer it, Yu Hua is dead this time." ”

At this time, he suddenly turned his head to the office, and seeing Yu Hua's frowning appearance, he said loudly and mockingly: "Brother Yu, you still don't struggle, just wait for death! Your Majesty wants you to die on the third watch, and no one can keep you until the fifth watch." ”

His words, like a pebble, were thrown in the silent office, and suddenly everyone's attention was attracted to him.

"Who is this person? Why did you get him here? What about the martial arts students of the Law Enforcement Hall? Kick him out!"

Mu Yun saw an unfamiliar figure, suddenly appeared here, shouting, he frowned, and commanded the law enforcement disciple outside the door.

"Yo, the Martial Academy has always been a place that advocates fairness and justice, could it be that there is something unsightly here, and I dare not let others see it, so you want to drive me out?

The dean snorted coldly and asked the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall on the side to retreat, not because he was afraid of the big hat thrown by Lin Zunwu, but because he didn't want to make trouble.

Compared with dealing with such an inconsequential person, the matter in front of Yu Hua is the focus.

Yu Hua looked at the five big characters on the letter in his hand, and he frowned.

It's not that the data in his mind didn't give him the answer to this question, but the answer given by the data stream was so unbelievable that he couldn't believe it.

"The outside is strong and the middle is dry, life and death are one person, the wind and rain are smooth, and the country will die if it is chaotic. ”

The meaning of this passage is very clear, that is, the current Tenglong Kingdom looks very strong, but it is already precarious inside, and the life and death of the entire country are pinned on one person.

It is easy to understand that there have been no natural disasters under the emperor's governance over the years, and the four seas are stable, and the country will be destroyed if there is chaos?

He couldn't help but wonder, could the country have become so vulnerable?

It's just that this has nothing to do with him, for him, the most important thing now is to get through the current catastrophe, if the question is not answered, he has little time left, not to mention seeing the dragon die, even tomorrow's sun, may not be able to see.

The answer was that there was an answer, but he didn't dare to write it like that.

Obediently, this is the language of the country!

If he dares to write it truthfully, not to say whether these are true or not, just the name of complaining about the monarch and cursing the country is not something he can afford.

If he doesn't write it, he may be able to live for ten days and a half months, if he dares to write it truthfully, he may be shot to death on the spot.

Yu Hua frowned, thinking of a good countermeasure, and at this moment, Lin Zunwu's harsh voice sounded.

Lin Zunwu's behavior once again refreshed Yu Hua's lower limit of his senses, this is the office of the dean of the Martial Academy, and the people standing in it are all important ministers of the Tenglong Kingdom, if he dares to speak like this, he is not afraid that he will also be thrown into the prison together?

Yu Hua subconsciously glanced at him, and at this moment, a stream of data flashed in his mind.

He was stunned at first, and then reacted, he was still puzzled before, where did Lin Zunwu get such a big energy to push such a small matter into the emperor's ears.

colluding with foreign enemies and plotting rebellions, this person is simply carried away by hatred, and in order to deal with himself, he really doesn't care about anything.

It just so happened that he also had the answer to the previous question.

It is naturally impossible to write it truthfully, Yu Hua is not Lin Zunwu, he still retains his sanity, but if the emperor can understand it and not mistakenly think that he has answered wrong, then it needs to be revised to a certain extent.

"The country is strong by heaven, prosperity depends on sages, the wind and rain are smooth, and the glory is free from external troubles. ”

This was his answer, and he changed all the bad remarks in the previous answers in the data stream in his mind to the original opposite.

He said that if there is external strife, the country will be destroyed, right? He changed it to no external trouble, and the dragon prospered.

The meaning is not too bad, but his tone is much better.

When everyone saw him start writing, they were all contemplated, although they knew that there was little hope for all this, they hoped that Yu Hua would be able to survive this catastrophe.

"It's all like this, and you still have to struggle? Tut-tut, Yu Hua, your desire to survive is really strong!"

Seeing Yu Hua's pen, Lin Zunwu couldn't help but mock.

Yu Hua had already stopped writing, and when he heard his words, he picked up the pen again and added a few words to the letterhead.

"It's hard to say whether my desire to survive is strong, but I know that your desire to die is really strong!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he put the letter paper in the envelope and handed it back to the national teacher who was waiting on the side.

The national teacher took the envelope and walked towards the palace.

There was silence in the office, and after a while, I heard Ji Yuan ask in a low voice, "Brother Yu, what is the answer?"

What he asked was what the others here wanted to know, and everyone turned their eyes to Yu Hua.

Yu Hua nodded: "Don't worry, I'm sure!"

However, when these words came out, except for Yu Hua, no one else believed it.

"Are you sure? You can still answer questions that the national teacher can't answer? Could it be that you are even more powerful than the national teacher?"

Lin Zunwu said loudly: "You still don't have a hard mouth, just wait for death, the moment the national teacher comes back, it will be your death." ”

Yu Hua retorted: "This may not be, maybe it is your death!"

He had reason to believe this, because the moment before handing over the letter, he filled in the information about Lin Zunwu in the data stream in his mind.

colluded with foreign enemies, intending to steal the secrets of the Wuyuan, such a charge of treason, reached the ears of the emperor, and he would never be spared.

At the critical moment, the dean came out and shouted: "Okay, don't argue, wait for the national teacher to come back and find out." ”

He turned his head to Yu Hua and said: "Yu Hua, it is not easy for you to be admitted to the Martial Academy to become a martial artist, the rules of the Martial Academy are a little outdated, you should not be punished like this, but after all, rules are rules, and I can't do anything." Tell me about it, if you have any other wishes, if not too much, I can fulfill them for you. ”

It was unimaginable for the dean of the Martial Academy to take action and fulfill his wish for him, but no one present envied him.

Yu Hua shook his head: "Don't bother the dean." ”

Time passed little by little, and the atmosphere here became tense again, but Yu Hua was not worried at all, because after several previous verifications, he believed that the data flow in his mind was absolutely correct!

"The national teacher is here. ”

In the distance, the white figure of the national teacher could be seen, and the sharp-eyed teacher noticed it and shouted out.

"Wait, those behind him seem to be the Praetorian Guard!"

They found that the national teacher was followed by several menacing Praetorian Guards.

Suddenly, everyone looked at Yu Hua as if they were looking at a dying person, and these Praetorian Guards were here to arrest him.

"When you die, look at how hard you are still speaking, the Praetorian Guards behind the national teacher are here to arrest you!

Lin Zunwu said with a sneer, and the evil intent in his eyes when he looked at Yu Hua was not concealed at all.

Yu Hua stood there and didn't speak, everyone thought that he had accepted his fate.

Ji Yuan quietly walked to his side and whispered to him: "Brother Yu, you can go with peace of mind, I will definitely do what you entrust me." ”

Looking at Ji Yuan's solemn expression, for some reason, Yu Hua felt a little funny.

"You don't believe me, do you think the Praetorian Guards are here to arrest me?"

Lin Zunwu scrambled to say: "Then what's the case? You are a sinner here, they are not here to arrest you, could it be that they are here to arrest me?"

Seeing this, Master Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Martial arts, talent may not be the most important thing, before you have enough strength, you should concentrate on cultivation and don't cause trouble for yourself." ”

A group of teachers echoed one after another: "What Master Chen said is extremely true, this is true, we have to tell those boys when we go back, lest they cause the same trouble, you must know that this world is huge, and the martial arts are endless, only by concentrating on cultivation and humbly seeking advice can we reach the extreme path." ”

The national teacher slowly approached, and the oppression brought by the Praetorian Guards behind him gradually increased.

Although their strength is not high, the authority they represent behind them is something that no one dares to resist.

The national teacher stood still, he looked around, and said in a deep voice: "Yu Hua, after reading your answer, Your Majesty was furious. ”

The people around sighed lightly, but Yu Hua was still unmoved.

"Yu Hua, don't you have anything to say?"

"Everything I wrote is true!"

Yu Hua didn't hesitate at all, because when he saw the national teacher, the data flow in his mind had already told him the answer, so the national teacher wanted to deceive him, but it didn't work.

Lin Zunwu looked at him, the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't be suppressed, and he was about to laugh out loud when the national teacher announced Yu Hua's death.

When the national teacher heard Yu Hua's reply, he was also a little surprised, he suddenly turned pale, and said sharply: "Come on, arrest him!"

"Hahaha, Yu Hua, I didn't expect you to have this day! I was thrown into the prison, and I was beheaded one day, who told you to provoke Grandpa Lin and me, did you regret it? But I tell you, it's too late for you to regret it now!"

"Wait, what are you arresting me for, you arrested the wrong person, you should arrest him, he is Yu Hua!"

"I didn't catch the wrong person, I arrested you, Lin Zunwu!"

What is unexpected is that the Praetorian Guards who came violently did not arrest Yu Hua, but Lin Zunwu.

"Good heart!"

The national teacher looked at Yu Hua, who still had the same face, praised him, and then turned his head to Lin Zunwu and said: "Colluding with outsiders and intending to rebel, what you have done is already known to the saint, you are not arrested, you are the one who is arrested!"

"How could it be, it's impossible! How do you know about this, we drank together last night to celebrate, you shouldn't have arrested me!"

The national teacher ignored his shouting, and with a wave of his hand, the Praetorian Guards took him down.

"Yu Hua, Your Majesty is very satisfied with your answer, you have made a contribution to exposing Lin Zunwu's rebellion, and you are specially named an academician of Hanlin, you can go to the Hanlin Academy to report when you have time!"

After speaking, he left Yu Hua with a meaningful look, and then turned away as well.

All the teachers in the office were stunned, and this sudden reversal surprised all of them.

Ji Yuan said in disbelief: "Brother Yu, are you really okay?"

Yu Hua nodded, among these people, he was also the most calm, with the data flow in his mind reminding, he already knew the result as early as the beginning.

But what happened in just half a day also made him palpitate.

The life and death of the two have been separated in a short period of time, and the result has been divided, which is more palpitating than the life-and-death struggle between the warriors.

"Brother Yu, Lin Zunwu?"

After getting Yu Hua's answer, Ji Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Lin Zunwu who was taken away, and continued to ask.

Yu Hua said casually: "He intended to rebel, I just happened to know his plan, and I just wrote it in the answer to the saint just now." ”

After listening to his explanation, Ji Yuan gave a thumbs up: "Ruthless enough!"

Usually found that someone intends to do something wrong, they have to report to the local governor, and then pass the news to the top level by level, and finally wait for the Tenglong Emperor to make a decision, and wait for the order to arrest it, I don't know that it is the year of the monkey.

Yu Hua's move was really simple, and he wrote Lin Zunwu's intention to rebel on the reply letter to the saint, which can be said to be a direct to heaven, and in a blink of an eye, Lin Zunwu was arrested and imprisoned, and his death was approaching.

Hearing Yu Hua's explanation, the others also recovered from this unexpected result.

When the dean saw that the matter was settled, he said, "This matter is over, you can leave on your own." Lao Qin, Liu Xian, Liu Wu, and Yu Hua, a few of you stay. ”
