Chapter 621: I give you a slap to look down on you
The place where the Wenhui dishes are placed has been surrounded by people, and the crowds are clearly divided.
On one side are the poor students from Taiping Academy, on the other side are the people from the Imperial College, and the rest of the peripheral people are naturally here to watch the excitement.
The man headed by Taiping Academy already had a bright red slap mark on his face.
As for the young master in Jinyi who insulted and made things difficult, besides his colleagues in the Imperial Academy, there were also several divine and military guards.
Although the strength of these warriors is only at the sixth level, they are still more than enough to deal with the weak scholars who have not yet entered the realm of literary saints.
Mr. Jin Yi sneered and said sarcastically: "This slap is me teaching you the rules. If you break something when you go out, you have to pay for it.
If everyone leaves like you, how can this art conference continue year after year?"
An Imperial College student on the side immediately responded: "So I said, the existence of Taiping Academy is just a joke. How can a person born in the city become a real scholar?"
After a few words, the onlookers finally got a general idea.
Looking at the broken jade butterfly on the ground, they whispered: "It turns out that the poor boy broke the utensils on the plate and ran away trying to avoid punishment."
"I think so. With their status, how can they afford to pay for that thing?"
"Not to mention compensating Yudie, I'm afraid these people will not be able to afford even one dish here if they spend all their money."
"The boss of Zhaixing Tower really made a stupid move this time and allowed children from poor families to enter this literary society. Look at their shabby appearance, they are simply incompatible with this place."
Before Qin Feng stepped into Fengtian City and changed the situation of scholars, those who had the money to study and learn literature were basically high-ranking officials.
Therefore, there are naturally more people like this who come to participate in the literary conference every year. Compared with the poor students from Taiping Academy, they must choose to side with the Imperial College.
When the students from poor families heard the discussion around them, their faces turned red and white. They wanted to say something, but when the words reached their throats, they couldn't spit them out, as if there was a thorn stuck in their throats.
The man who was slapped loudly said: "We didn't touch the food on the table at all, so how could we break the jade butterfly? It was clearly him..."
Before he finished speaking, Mr. Jin Yi actually picked up the expensive utensils on the side and threw them to the ground in front of everyone.
The crisp sound instantly silenced the noisy surroundings.
"You..." The poor student looked dull.
Just listen to Mr. Jinyi say slowly: "You mean, I broke the Jade Butterfly, so I want to treat you unjustly?
The market value of the porcelain I just dropped is about three thousand taels of silver. There are five thousand taels here, which is enough to compensate for the loss of the Zhaixing Tower.
My purpose of doing this is just to tell you that if I crush the jade butterfly, I won’t wrongly accuse you mice for such a small amount of money.”
There was contempt and disdain in his tone.
These words are truly heartbreaking!
The other people in the Imperial Academy responded and spoke out to build up momentum for Young Master Jinyi.
The humiliated students from poor families gritted their teeth and trembled slightly.
On the other side, on the top floor of the attic of Feitingkongyuan, a middle-aged man who was not angry but had an astonishing power was watching the farce from beginning to end.
This person is none other than the current Holy Emperor - Emperor Ming!
Eunuch Li on the side frowned and said: "This Mr. Jiang, the Minister of Civil Service, is quite aggressive.
Your Majesty, do you need me to come forward and help those students from Taiping Academy?
Don't let these things spoil your mood today."
"No, if a student from a poor family cannot bear even this little difficulty, even if he enters the official career by relying on the imperial examination, he will not be able to deal with the criticism from the civil servants in the court.
What I want are capable ministers who can help me manage my affairs, not a bunch of inexperienced students."
Hearing this, Eunuch Li was thoughtful. No wonder His Majesty would come to this literary conference this year. He might have foreseen such a scene...
"Besides, that boy has already arrived. It should be effortless for him to solve such a small matter." Emperor Ming looked at a certain place and suddenly smiled.
Mr. Jin Yi's maneuvers won the support of the onlookers, and his arrogance became even stronger.
He looked at the poor students, sneered and said, "I know you can't afford to pay, so I can give you a chance.
As long as you get under my crotch and bark a few times like a dog, I will help you compensate for the Jade Butterfly's money, how about it?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Imperial College started to boo.
The students at Taiping Academy were all filled with jealousy, but a deep sense of powerlessness came to their hearts.
Because they can't do anything now.
At this moment, a cold voice sounded: "If you lie down on the ground, imitate a dog barking a few times, and then apologize to my students.
I can forget about the past things."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Imperial Academy frowned. Who could be so blind as to ruin their good deeds?
Mr. Jiang even said angrily: "Who is so presumptuous?!"
Looking for fame, everyone in the Taiping Academy looked happy, but everyone in the Imperial College was stunned on the spot.
The person coming is none other than Qin Feng!
He glanced at the broken utensils on the ground, then at the bright red slap marks on the man's face, and said guiltily: "I'm sorry, I'm late. Lu Rong, are you okay?"
Lu Rong shook his head: "It's just a slap. It's innocuous. It's just that he didn't let us eat the food at the cultural gathering before. He also said that we broke the jade butterfly, but we didn't touch the dining table at all."
"Yes, Master Qin, we didn't do anything."
"But no one believed us."
Although everyone tried their best to hide it, Qin Feng could still hear the grievances and unwillingness in their words.
While feeling sad, Qin Feng regretted it too much.
He originally thought that bringing these students here would give them some exposure and allow them to relax before the imperial examination, but he had forgotten how stupid those children of powerful people were.
Conflict is inevitable, and so are cold looks and ridicule.
Qin Feng clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and said with a smile: "I believe you, leave the rest of the matter to me.
By the way, who slapped you on the face?"
Lu Rong hesitated for a moment and pointed at Mr. Jinyi.
Qin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw this, then turned around and looked at everyone in the Imperial Academy, his eyes fixed on Young Master Jin Yi.
His smile had faded, and his expression was indifferent. The energy in his body was stirring, and the powerful pressure actually made everyone in the Imperial College tremble.
The leader, Young Master Jiang, had long lost his previous arrogance. He thought of the scene where the opponent and the Asura clan were like immortals coming to the world, and he was frightened for a moment!
Immediately he said in a trembling voice: "I am the son of a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Are you still going to attack me in Fengtian City?"
What's more, he was originally from your Taiping Academy. He broke Jade Butterfly and wanted to run away. What's wrong with me teaching him a lesson and teaching him the rules?
Besides, in my capacity, giving him a slap in the face would be disrespectful..."
Snapped!
Before he finished speaking, a crisp slap sounded.
This slap not only stunned Mr. Jinyi, but also stunned everyone.
"You...you dare to hit me?" Mr. Jiang covered half of his swollen face, his eyes full of disbelief.
"My slap is also to teach you the rules. According to the laws of Daqian, there are no private fights in Fengtian City.
Ah, when it comes to this, it seems that I have broken the rules?"
Qin Feng scratched his head and then said again: "But I guess you won't mind. After all, I am a cabinet bachelor appointed by Emperor Ming. I give you this slap because I think highly of you."
