Sitting on the city wall of the capital, Yan Yan had evil intentions floating behind him.

"Look for Shen Beizhu." Yan Yan ordered.

What she saw yesterday was definitely not fake.

"Yes." Hu Xin nodded, "It was Shilang Lu who did it for me to go to Prince Shen's Mansion, and the Yan family intervened behind the scenes."

"Shilang Lu?" Yan Yan frowned, "Isn't he on good terms with Xiao Zhuzi?"

Hu Xin paused and said, "You know people, you know faces, but you don't know your heart."

There are no real friends in the court, but Lu Shilang killed someone from Prince Shen's house because of his deception.

It looked at everyone in the capital and found no ghost eyes, except that it had forgotten about Mr. Lu who had been with Yan Yan all the time.

It didn't tell this matter not for its own sake, but for Yan's sake.

Yan Yan will definitely blame herself for the ghost eye incident, and may even think that she was the one who caused the palace to sink and be destroyed.

"The capital is in turmoil, and Minister Lu's current situation is worse than death. It's not worth your while, boss."

"Yeah, that's fine." Yan Yan said casually.

She was not interested in things happening in the capital, and knowing that Shen Beizhu was still alive, she didn't want to think about what happened three years ago.

Just when the evil intention was about to retreat, Yan Yan called out.

"Wait a minute, there is a real man named Ling Huai in this city. I can feel Qingmian's aura on him." Yan Yan looked at Hu Xin, who happened to look at her after hearing the words.

"Qingmian? Is that kid here?"

"Pay attention when you go to find Shen Beizhu."

"yes."

-

The main street of the capital.

Yan Yan came to the flower soup cake shop again and met the ghostly scholar in the box again.

In the flower soup cake shop, he didn't eat flower soup cakes. He only had a bowl of thin noodle soup, took out a cake from his arms and ate it.

Seeing that he was eating well, Yan Yan also ordered a bowl of thin noodle soup and a piece of meat pie.

The thin noodle soup is really good. The ordinary noodle soup has a bit of floral flavor added to it, which makes you have an endless aftertaste.

After eating, the scholar left with his suitcase and cage on his back, and Yan Yan followed him as he had nothing to do.

Most of the scholars who came to the capital to take exams stayed in inns, but Yan Yan followed this scholar to a city god's temple.

There were no monks in the Chenghuang Temple, only scholars like him who worked hard to live there, and a few beggars nearby.

Yan Yan glanced at the beggar.

There was half a chicken in the broken bowl in the beggar's house, and he ate better than the scholar.

When she came, the people in the temple looked at her, then took out the books from the cages and memorized them.

After the beggar finished his meal, he threw dice in a broken bowl and shouted louder and louder. The scholars in the temple looked at the noisy group with disgust, picked up their books, got up and went outside.

The scholar who came with him found a place to sit down in the temple and took a nap. No matter how loud the beggar's voice was, he didn't even open his eyes to look at it.

Yan Jie walked around and sat down next to the scholar, next to his cage which was stained with ghostly aura.

The scholar did not open his eyes when she sat down next to her. When she reached out to touch the box, the scholar held the box and distanced herself from Yan Yan.

"Girl, please don't have unclean hands and feet. I don't have what the girl wants here."

The scholars thought she was a pickpocket and came to steal money. They even thought that there was something wrong with Yan Yan's brain when he came to this temple to steal their money.

Those who rest in the temple are not beggars, and they are no better than beggars.

"What do I want? Do you know what I want?" Yan Yan asked.

The scholar lay on the cage and continued to take a nap, ignoring her.

"Have you ever heard of a scholar who uses sorcery to cheat?"

"You said they know magic, why do they still need to take the exam?"

"What kind of evil magic is it? It can actually be used to cheat! Do you think it's like the Five Ghost Transport Technique?"

"Besides, where did they learn about the evil arts?"

"Actually, I think..."

"It's about the exam..."

"But..."

…

The scholar was lying on the cage, his brows furrowing more and more tightly. When Yan Yan kept talking, he suddenly raised his head.

"You..." The scholar went through the words in his mouth several times, and all he could say was, "The girl is so noisy."

Yan Yao looked at him: "Aren't you ignoring me?"

At this time, she also had a taste of Bai Zhu's mood when she ignored him.

The scholar was choked to silence and asked helplessly: "What on earth are you going to do?"

What is she going to do?

She just said so many things about cheating in the exam, but this scholar didn't react at all?

"I want to know what's in your cage."

The scholar protected the box and said, "What, there's nothing, just two books for review."

"Can I take a look?" Yan Yan asked, his hand already reaching for the cage.

The scholar hurriedly tried to block it, but when Yan Yan saw that he had stopped blocking it, he acted a little harder. Not only did he snatch the box and cage over, but he also accidentally opened the box and cage.

"ah--"

"Kill, kill someone——"

The contents of the cage fell out and rolled to the beggar's feet.

One of the beggars fainted on the spot, and several others were frightened to the point of peeing.

A head with messy hair fell to the ground with its eyelids half-opened.

The scholar was taken away by the officers and soldiers. No one dared to touch the head that fell on the ground. The scholar calmly put it back in the cage and carried it on his back.

Yan Yan was still thinking about going back to the eldest princess's mansion and asking someone to take her to the scholar to find out why she was wearing the head.

The officers and soldiers thought he was the scholar's accomplice and were imprisoned together.

Being caught in jail again, Yan Yan couldn't help but cursed loudly.

Can these officers and soldiers correct their stinky habit of arresting and imprisoning people indiscriminately!

Now Yan Yan no longer has to go to the eldest princess, she will be locked up in the same cell as the scholar.

The cage containing the head also stayed in the prison with them.

"How brave are you? How dare you wander around the city with your head?"

The scholar said nothing and huddled in a corner holding the box.

"Aren't you scared? Is that a human head?"

The scholar remained silent.

"Do you know the life and birth date of the human head?"

The scholar still remained silent.

"Then I'm going to steal it. You should know my strength. You can't stop me if I want to steal someone's head."

The scholar finally raised his head and looked at Yan Yan with resentment in his eyes, "Do I have any grudge against you? Why don't you let me go?"

"You have no grudge against me, but you have grudge against the people in the cage. I want to seek justice for these murdered people."

The book moved his lips vividly, "No need."

There was no need to wait for Yan Jie to snatch it, the officers and soldiers had already sent people to take away the box and cage.

Scholars can't even compete with Yan Yu, let alone these tall and powerful officers and soldiers.

Not only the head was taken away, but Yan Yan was also taken out.

"Why were you arrested?" Yan Hexing was waiting outside the prison in a carriage.

Yan Hexing didn't see Yan Yu returning to the eldest princess' mansion all morning, so Yan Hexing sent someone to look for her. They found her in the prison and quickly drove a carriage to pick her up.

"It's a long story."

Because Yan Yu was involved, the scholar's case was sent to the eldest princess's mansion.

The scholar's name is Zhong Hetai, and he is not a scholar who came to the capital to take exams.
