Chapter 66: Suspicion
Mr. Nanshan stood condescendingly on the steps in front of the cottage and gave the final verdict to the girl.
Zhu Luan stood on the grass, raised his head, and looked at Mr. Nanshan silently and persistently.
The expression on Mr. Nanshan's face was a little complicated, but very resolute.
The crowd around them became noisy, and the students were talking. Although at first everyone thought that it was a fantasy for a woman to enter Ziyang Academy and even become a disciple of Mr. Nanshan, but after this day and night of questions and answers, everyone reacquainted with this girl, and under such a huge amount of knowledge, even if she was a little unwilling, she still had to admit that she did have some knowledge.
And Mr. Nanshan actually compared her with Duan Haochu after the Q&A, which caused a shock among the students of the academy.
After all, that was that Duan Haochu.
Even if it is mentioned casually, it is enough to prove that this woman has won the approval of her husband.
All the students just speculated whether Mr. Nanshan would make an exception for this woman. But I didn't expect Mr. to refuse this girl's request so bluntly.
Mr. Nanshan is a respected Confucian, no one will think that his judgment is unfair, judging from this girl's previous performance, although she is a woman, there is no problem in terms of knowledge, even if Mr. Nanshan is forced to accept her as a disciple directly because of the sensitive identity of a woman, but he will definitely encourage this girl, and he will not refuse so ruthlessly.
The scrutiny around him is getting more and more serious, Mr. Nanshan will not make a mistake, so making such a decision, there is no doubt that there is something wrong with this girl herself.
"Mr. Nanshan's eyes are like torches, and he will not accept talented and virtuous people as disciples."
Out of nowhere, a faint female voice came, although the voice was very small, but it was like a spark being thrown into the oil pot, and this sentence was spread among the crowd.
The students suddenly realized that since there was no problem with knowledge, it was naturally a problem with this girl's character.
Even if you have great talent, the most important thing for a scholar is virtue, and if virtue is lost, he naturally cannot become a disciple of Mr. Nanshan.
After Mr. Nanshan announced the disposition of this girl, Li Wenyao, Duan Lizheng and others, who were closest to Zhu Luan, could not hide the surprise on their faces, and heard the discussions and ridicule of the students around him, Duan Lizheng frowned, looked at Mr. Nanshan who was standing at the top, and then looked at the girl next to him.
"I don't understand." He heard the girl whisper.
Duan Lizheng didn't understand either.
He did not believe that this learned woman could be a person of bad virtue, and although many of her actions were indeed a bit strange, he had a big brother who also behaved and spoke strangely, so he did not think that a person's character could be judged by these actions.
He couldn't help but stare at Mr. Nanshan who was standing at the top with some confusion.
Looking at the students who were talking a lot, Mr. Nanshan's face flashed a trace of unbearability, and the old man looked in the direction of Duan Lizheng silently, noticing the doubts on his face, his expression was a little complicated, he opened his mouth, and finally didn't say anything.
"Can you tell me why?" Zhu Luan took a few steps forward and asked.
The sky was already bright, the sunlight shone into the forest, Duan Lizheng heard the girl's question, and couldn't help but look at her, the woman's long black hair reflected the colorful pupils, very slender and soft, from his point of view, the warm sun perched on her long eyelashes, and there seemed to be a gentle and delicate light falling on them.
Even though she was surrounded by people, no one was on her side.
She is the only one fighting against the world.
Thinking of the Q&A one day and one night before, this woman seemed to be alone in the sea of learning, and Duan Lizheng felt a trace of unbearability in his heart for some reason.
"Sir, the student is also a little ......," he couldn't help but speak, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the tough words of Mr. Nanshan.
Mr. Nanshan didn't look directly at Zhu Luan's calm and insistent gaze, and said, "I naturally have my reasons, since I said that I won't accept you as a disciple, it must be because you don't meet the conditions to become my disciple," he paused, and his tone became a little heavier, "You might as well think about your own problems, if I have to say it here, it will only be detrimental to you, you better not take your own humiliation." ”
That's a lot of weight.
Duan Lizheng also wanted to ask Mr. Nanshan for the reason for not accepting this girl, but when he heard this, he immediately stopped talking.
After all, if Mr. Nanshan really said something unfavorable to this girl in public, this girl's life would be ruined.
So this is a naked threat to this girl.
Zhu Luan looked at Mr. Nanshan and was silent for a long time, then turned to leave.
"Hey, this is leaving?" "Looks like there's something really going on." "I guess I'm looking for a place to cry, after all, it's a little girl."
The crowd erupted in laughter, and everyone gloated as the girl left.
Duan Lizheng opened his mouth to call out to her, but the buzz that erupted in the crowd suppressed his voice, and then the crowd that was originally around began to surge, and the front of the grass hall suddenly became chaotic, many students called friends and wandered around, and the girl disappeared from sight in an instant.
Duan Lizheng couldn't help but chase after him, but someone grabbed him.
"Second brother, where are you going?" Duan Lizheng turned around and saw Duan Zhiyun looking at her in a panic, with a pair of big eyes that wanted to cry.
"Suddenly there was chaos, second brother, don't leave my side, I'm afraid." Duan Lizheng heard his sister say this.
Duan Lizheng's footsteps couldn't help but stop, and he anxiously glanced in the direction where the girl left, but he didn't see her figure at all, for some reason, Li Wenyao and Mu Kezhi beside him were also missing, Duan Lizheng continued to look around, but found that the little county king of Xin'an was standing a little far away from him, and the look on his face was rare hesitation.
"What's wrong?" Duan Lizheng pulled Duan Zhiyun over.
Xin'an Xiaojun Wang stared at his feet a little strangely, "I didn't know what was wrong just now, when I saw that sister named Zhu Ying leave, these feet followed as if they could move." ”
He showed a somewhat strange smile, "When I found out, I had taken several steps, but Li Zheng, you didn't keep up, so I won't stop and wait for you." ”
"I didn't think that the girl would disappear in the blink of an eye." Xin'an Xiaojun Wang said with some regret.
Zhu Luan walked down the mountain, followed by Yuying, who had gone to sleep in the room of the mountain gate after the Q&A was carried out at night, and the little girl was woken up from the bed by her, and she was still a little sleepy-eyed.
Zhu Luan walked to the mountain gate of Ziyang Academy and suddenly stopped.
Li Wenyao and Mu Kezhi stood side by side in front of the mountain gate.
"This girl, it's rare to have a chance to meet and go out with us?" Mu Kezhi grinned at her.
