Chapter Eighty-Six: I'll Give You an Explanation!
When Su Wen woke up, he found himself lying in the familiar bedroom, and he returned to Lin Huaju.
What happened last night was like a dream, but it was so real.
Turning over and sitting up, Su Wen suddenly found that there was no injury all over his body, let alone broken ribs, and even ordinary abrasions no longer existed!
The Cold Moon Sword and the Phantom Pen were placed at the head of the bed, no different from usual, as if the qiē in Su Wen's memory had never happened at all.
The only difference is that the clothes on Su Wen's body have been changed, and the blood-stained gown doesn't know where it went.
This dress is not Su Wen's.
Su Wen frowned, carefully recalling the bits and pieces of his memory, but he only remembered the finger in front of his eyebrows and a sudden cold snort.
"What happened next?" Su Wen rubbed his face with his hands, unable to get any answer.
Walking out of the door, Su Wen saw Tang Ji and Haoma under the pomegranate tree, not knowing what they were muttering in a low voice, looking around, but they didn't see Su Yu and Autumn Leaves.
"Are you awake?" Tang Ji asked very simply when he saw Su Wen.
I don't know why, Su Wen heard a trace of depression from Tang Ji's voice, but he didn't worry about himself.
"Who brought me back last night?"
Tang Ji couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this, and said: "Who else can it be, it's that lame old Wubei, I said Su Wen, you are really generous, such a big thing happened last night, you can still sleep so soundly, don't you see me and the little monk both burning their eyebrows?"
Su Wen was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "What happened?"
Tang Ji didn't say it, Su Wen really didn't react, and now he found out that it was not yet noon at this time, and it stands to reason that it was the most popular time for Lin Huaju's business, why didn't Haoma stay in the front shop, but had the kung fu to come to the backyard to chat with the fat man?
Haoma smiled bitterly and said, "There is not a single guest today. ”
Su Wen reacted immediately, it turned out that it was so.
Tang Ji then added: "Don't say it's a guest, there are many people who have come here before and threatened to smash our store, if you wake up early, you can see how many rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves have been thrown outside our shop." ”
Su Wen also shook his head secretly when he heard this, and sighed: "Fortunately, this is Huangli Street. ”
On Huangli Street, there is Yan Wuye.
Taking a deep breath, Su Wen walked out.
"Where are you going?"
"Go find Yan Wuye. ”
Today, Lin Huaju was able to keep a moment of peace, and Su Wen once again accepted Yan Wuye's favor, but this was not enough to offset the life and death crisis that Su Wen encountered yesterday.
If it weren't for some accidents that even Su Wen didn't know about, he would have died in that dark room!
It was Mrs. Lu who wanted to kill Su Wen, but this middle-aged woman was introduced to Su Wen by Yan Wuye!
However, it wasn't until Su Wen walked out of Lin Huaju that he remembered that he didn't know where Yan Wuye was at all, or rather, the huge Huangli Street, and even those purple-clothed iron guards didn't know where Yan Wuye was really hiding.
In this way, where did Su Wen go to find Yan Wuye?
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the side: "Xuefu Street is fighting! Go and see! The people of Lin Huaju are being blocked!"
When Su Wen heard this, his heart sank, where could he still care to find Yan Wuye's location, and when the wind was blowing on the soles of his feet, he rushed towards Xuefu Street.
Lin Huaju has a total of four people, Tang Ji and Haoma are both under the pomegranate tree in the backyard at this time, and excluding Su Wen himself, there is only one person left, Su Yu.
On weekdays, Lin Hua is in the center, Haoma is responsible for greeting guests, and Su Yu is responsible for bookkeeping, both of which are indispensable, but early this morning, Su Yu followed Autumn Leaves out early, and no one knew where they went and what they were doing.
In broad daylight, under the normal inspection of the garrison, the security of Huizhou Mansion is still quite good, and Su Yu is accompanied by Qiu Ye, so nothing will happen to him, so neither Haoma nor Tang Ji is worried about Su Yu's safety, but today, something happened.
Su Wen didn't know how strict the consequences of plagiarizing rumors would be in this world, especially in a place like Huizhou Mansion, where literati gathered, but Qiu Ye knew.
So early in the morning, Autumn Leaves hurried to Xuefu Street, hoping to find a few students who were familiar with him to help Su Wen clear the suspicion of plagiarism. And Su Yu also came with her after learning about Autumn Ye's plan, although she couldn't help much, it was better than staying in Lin Huaju and doing nothing.
But it's a pity that the autumn leaves are late.
Almost overnight, the entire Huizhou Mansion knew about Su Wen's plagiarism of Yan Zihao's poems, and before Qiu Ye found those regulars of Liu Yan Pavilion on Xuefu Street, she had already been recognized by everyone.
In other words, the first to be recognized was Su Yu.
As Lin Huaju's reputation grew, Haoma and Su Yu, who were in charge of hospitality and cashiering, also gained some fame in the state capital.
Especially after experiencing the two major events of "Poison Rouge" and "Oiran Competition" one after another, Su Wen is almost unknown to everyone in the entire Huizhou Mansion, which also further enhances the popularity of the two.
After all, any customer who goes to Lin Huaju to buy rouge can always deal with the two of them.
Therefore, not long after Su Yu appeared on Xuefu Street, he attracted the attention of many people, especially after seeing the figure of Autumn Leaves on the side, thinking back to the rumors last night, everyone became more and more sure that the little girl was the little female boss of Lin Huaju.
The title of the little female boss is a bit awkward, but it is the name given by Lin Huaju's loyal customers, after all, Su Yu is still young, and it is said that she is still Su Wen's sister, so if you call her the boss lady, it is not appropriate to think about it.
Moreover, Su Yu's appearance fell in the eyes of many people, and she was an out-and-out beauty embryo, and calling her the little female boss also hid some ridicule.
However, at this time, they looked at Su Yu's gaze, but they didn't mean to laugh at anything, and they couldn't even say that they were kind.
There were more and more onlookers, and soon the entire Xuefu Street was alarmed, and in the face of dozens or hundreds of pairs of eyes with scrutiny and disdain, Su Yu also felt a little scared, she grabbed the hem of Qiu Ye's skirt tightly and pursed her lips gently.
Qiu Ye naturally didn't expect the news to spread so quickly, she protected Su Yu beside her with one hand, and comforted in a low voice: "Don't be afraid." ”
At this moment, I don't know who it was or where it came from, and suddenly a question came: "Lin Huaju's people still have the face to come to our Xuefu Street? Could it be that they have taken a fancy to the poetry of that senior brother and want to borrow it?"
There was an incomparably mocking hint in her voice, which made Akiba frown secretly, but she didn't want to cause more trouble on this trip, so she chose to ignore it.
But she didn't want to, her attitude fell in the eyes of others, but she was marked with shame and self-confession.
Then the people who hated it became more and louder.
"Those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black, in my opinion, this person in Lin Huaju is not a good thing, a box of rouge is so expensive, and its practical use is no different from ordinary rouge, it is simply black money earned!"
"I don't know why Akiba girl is willing to go along with such people, it's really heartbreaking for my generation!"
Akiba was silent all the way, not responding to the influx of questions and scolding, and not knowing how to respond. From this point of view, it is in vain to find someone to help Su Wen clear his grievances today.
Seeing that the crowd was getting denser and the scolding was getting more and more unpleasant, Qiu Ye began to worry that these people would transfer their anger to Su Yu's body, so he couldn't help but grab Qiu Ye's hand, turned around, and walked towards the entrance of Xuefu Street.
However, before the two of them could walk out of the range of Xuefu Street, a thin figure stopped in front of them first.
Yan Zihao.
Qiu Ye looked at this person, and a hint of foreboding faintly rose in his heart, but he still saluted him and said, "Young Master Yan." ”
Yan Zihao smiled, but instead of looking at Qiu Ye, he swept his gaze over everyone's faces, and finally landed on Su Yu's face.
"You're Su Wen's sister?"
Qiu Ye pulled Su Yu behind him and said, "I'm tired of Yan Gongzi to let go, we have to go back." ”
Of course, Yan Zihao had no intention of giving way, and still stood in the way at the corner of the street.
Seeing this, Qiu Ye took a deep breath and asked, "What does Yan Gongzi mean by this?"
Yan Zihao shook his head and sneered: "What do you mean? That Su Wen plagiarized Yan's poetry collection, and was exposed by Yan in public, it stands to reason that he should go to the Holy Inquisition to ask for guilt, but Yan waited at the gate of the Holy Inquisition for a long time, but he was nowhere to be seen, and I heard that he was hiding in Huangli Street and did not dare to come out. ”
"Yan knows that my fifth uncle is protecting him, and if he wants to go to Huangli Street to arrest people, I'm afraid it's not so easy, but since the little sister of the Su family is here, I might as well stay a little longer, hey, I want to see if Su Wen will continue to hide his head and tail like this!"
Speaking of this, Yan Zihao's eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of fierceness, and he shouted loudly to the literati students present: "If you do something wrong, you must be punished! That Su Wen is just a person who deceives the world and steals his name, today he dares to plagiarize Yan's poetry collection so blatantly, and maybe he will plagiarize the creations of everyone present another day!"
"We must not tolerate such people! Yan is waiting here with everyone, waiting for Su Wen to come and give us an explanation! If the Holy Inquisition does not distinguish between black and white, we must also drive these literati scum out of the state capital!"
I have to say that students are really the most easily incited group, and Yan Zihao has already aroused the enthusiasm of everyone in the audience in just a few words.
Everyone raised their arms and echoed loudly: "Drive Su Wen out of Huizhou Mansion!"
"Drive Su Wen out of Huizhou Mansion!"
Under the excitement of the crowd, there were inevitably some hot-blooded boys and girls who began to pick up the stones on the side of the road and smashed them in the direction of Qiu Ye and Su Yu, as if the other party was the heinous murderer in the death row car in the past.
"Smack!"
A sharp stone shard smashed on Qiu Ye's shoulder, and suddenly brought up bursts of blood, Qiu Ye exhaled in pain, covering his shoulder with one hand, but still straightened his waist, and firmly protected Su Yu behind him.
The bloody breath finally sobered everyone up, and the little boy who smashed the autumn leaves seemed to be a little stupid, and he was stunned on the spot for a while, not knowing how to end it.
There was finally a rare silence in the room.
But the silence didn't last long before it was broken by a voice of utter indifference.
"You want me to give you an explanation? Very well! Then I'll give you an explanation!"
The crimson talent light rose like a flame, piercing the sky, and a figure that everyone had been waiting for for a long time finally appeared at the corner of the street, with monstrous anger, and walked towards Yan Zihao step by step.
"Yan Zihao, you keep claiming that I plagiarized your poems, in this case, your talent should be much stronger than mine, so good, now I, Su Wen, Wensheng Zhongpin, officially launched a literary fight against you!"
