To be precise, it was the bow stick that had just been snatched from Chang Miao's hand.
Chang Miao's eyes changed: "...What do you mean!"
He subconsciously reached out to grab it: "Give it back to me!"
Chang Suining took a step back, avoiding his grasping hand, and looked at the two magistrates who looked puzzled: "If Chang Miao accidentally hurt others before, it was all unintentional -"
As she spoke, she lightly pressed the finger that was holding the bow on the spot where the cloud pattern was carved. She heard a very soft sound and a half-finger-long pointed cone-shaped steel thorn suddenly popped out from under the bow.
"With such a sharp weapon hidden in this bow stick, can it still be called an unintentional act?" Chang Suining asked.
No one had noticed such details in the chaos before. At this moment, she raised the bow stick in front of others and showed it to others. This strangeness was clearly seen by everyone.
The sharp steel thorns shone with cold light, making people shudder.
The two magistrates looked slightly shocked - the husband of the Chang family actually did such a trick on the bow stick!
There were discussions everywhere.
"If this thing is used to hurt someone, it's not a joke!"
"It seems that this was premeditated... It's just to win a game, and to do it to such an extent is really shameful." A young student said with a frown.
"Brother Song is right. It should be noted that this thing is not something that can be used temporarily. I'm afraid this mechanism won't be completed within 10 days and 8 days..."
"I asked you why you suddenly changed the bow stick in the last quarter!" Cui Lang said angrily: "The author saw that those previous methods were not effective after being used too much. Seeing that he had lost two quarters in a row, he couldn't help but start again.
Such a bad intention!"
"I didn't!" Chang Miao denied with a fluctuating face: "This is also the first time I know that there is such a weird mechanism hidden on this stick... This, this must be someone framing me!"
Cui Lang rolled his eyes: "Who do you think you are? Who would spend so much effort to frame you!"
Chang Miao waved away Mrs. Chang's hand that was wiping the blood on his face, and vowed: "I'm telling the truth! I don't know anything!"
Chang Suining glanced at him and said, "Whether it's true or not, we only need to examine the injury on the front leg of the horse that Brother Yubai just rode, and we can tell."
Chang Miao's face condensed.
"Oh, I understand!" The young man surnamed Hu pointed to the bow stick and said suddenly: "The last stick he hit on Yu Bai's horse's front leg must have used this mechanism. No wonder Yu Bai's horse was frightened into that
Like, he threw Yubai down!"
The scars left by ordinary stick injuries and injuries by steel thorns are bound to be very different, and people will know it at a glance!
Qiao Yubai's horse was temporarily held back because it was frightened. One of the magistrates personally took people to check it. After a while, he turned back and announced the result to the public——
"The wounds on the front legs of the horse that Supervisor Qiao Yubai was riding on showed signs of open flesh. It was indeed injured by a sharp weapon."
The whole place suddenly became noisy. Many students looked at Chang Miao with disdain as the literati valued virtue.
Chang Tongchun's face was darker than the bottom of the pot.
When the doctor who came over saw this situation, he hesitated a little - that is to say, is it necessary to treat the thing that is being pointed out by so many people?
Until Qiao Jijiu waved his hand towards him, beckoning him to come forward.
Those who deserve punishment must be punished, and those who deserve treatment must be treated. Otherwise, it would be unlucky for a person to die in another country's prison.
The doctor then bravely carried the medicine box and went forward, squatting beside him to check Chang Miao's injuries.
The trial of Chang Miao did not stop with the arrival of the doctor——
After handing the ju stick as physical evidence to the magistrate, Chang Suining said: "Not only that, there should also be something wrong with Mr. Shojiro's horse."
"What a nonsense...ah!" Chang Miao was about to retort, but her words were blocked by wailing.
He glared hatefully at the doctor who pressed his wounds - this old guy must have been distracted and listened to his excitement!
Chang Suining ignored him and looked directly at the horse that Yuan Xiang was looking at, saying: "This horse was a little too excited on the field, and it seemed more like it didn't feel pain when it collided with other horses, so I guess,
This horse must have been given medicine."
As soon as these words came out, Cui Lang was the first to bear the brunt of it and was shocked, as if he was enlightened.
So Mrs. Chang did not avoid Chang Miao's horse at that time. She said she wanted to test whether the horse would hurt when it hit someone...it turned out to be to test and verify whether there was anything strange about the horse!
"You don't want to spit on anyone!" Mrs. Chang couldn't care less about crying at this time and tried to hide her panic: "...Where did this weird medicine come from? How come I've never heard of it!"
She had never heard of it being true.
Just like she didn't know that the stick could be used for manipulation, but she couldn't help but deny it when the sharp steel weapon was placed in front of her.
But there was no evidence for drugging horses, and she would refute it on her son's behalf without even thinking about it.
"It's normal that Madam has never heard of it, but you can't insist that it doesn't exist just because you haven't heard of it." Chang Sui Ning said: "There is a kind of brown knot grass originating from the Western Regions. If horses eat it by mistake, they will get excited and hurt others.
Then killing someone in a manic manner is something that is explicitly prohibited by the military, but if you are willing, it shouldn't be difficult to get it by spending some money in the Western Market."
Chang Miao felt a layer of cold sweat arouse on his back.
How could she know such details!
When he wanted to deny it, Chang Suining asked another person——
"Captain Cui has been marching all year round, so he must have seen this thing. He should know that what I said is not just nonsense, right?"
If Changmiao did not leave brown knotweed, then we would have to find another way to verify it. Of course, the most direct way is to check it from horse feces, but horses pooping is not something that people can control at will.
, so many people can’t just wait for it to happen, right?
Her words alone are always unconvincing, but it will be different if Cui Jing opens his mouth. His identity and prestige are here, and it will be much easier if he comes forward to prove it.
At this moment, Cui Jing felt that she was just a brick today, being moved around at will.
But he still nodded: "There is indeed something abnormal about this horse, and it does seem like it has been fed brown knotweed."
Although he said "like", his tone was firm.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! And as expected, after Cui Jing said this, not to mention the onlookers, even Chang Miao didn't have the courage to deny it anymore after struggling for a while.
More and more contemptuous eyes fell on him.
Even the doctor who cleaned the wounds on his face felt like he had lost a layer of skin... He probably counted this as a work-related injury, right?
With the evidence now in sight, right and wrong have been decided. Chang Tongchun scolded Chang Miao with a serious look on his face: "You bastard! You did such a morally corrupt and despicable thing. Where have you read all the sages' books!"
They were so clumsy that they were all caught out!
Being beaten like this again...it's really embarrassing!
Today, his face, and the face of the entire Chang family, were completely disgraced by this bastard!
"Qiao Jijiu..." Chang Tongchun reluctantly suppressed the turbulent look in his eyes, and apologized apologetically to Qiao Yang: "My treacherous son got into such trouble today, disrupted the kicking match, and hurt your son. He is actually my godson."
No way——"
Qiao Jijiu sighed and did not deny it.
Chang Tongchun continued: "How should we deal with this matter, but I ask the Imperial College and Qiao Jijiu to do it impartially, Chang will have no objection!"
Yao Yi on the side glanced sideways at Chang Tongchun and sneered in his heart - Isn't this nonsense? Is it his turn to say anything?
Seeing that her father's last look towards her was full of disgust, Chang Miao's face turned pale in her heart.
As for why it can only be said in the bottom of my heart, it is because the blood on the face is so colorful that it is too pale to look pale.
Fortunately, mother and son were close to each other, and Mrs. Chang's wife also gave away his share.
Mingluo's brows tightened after witnessing the development of the situation.
A single move in the court can affect the whole body. If the relationship between the Chang family and the Ming family is too close, someone will inevitably cause trouble for the saint indirectly by impeaching the Chang family.
Although Chang Miao's actions were wrong and extremely stupid, everything before was still within control, and it was just a small fight between students——
But now that it has reached such a level, it has become a real troublesome matter.
And this much-anticipated shooting match was completely ruined.
Thinking of this, Mingluo raised his eyes and looked at the girl in the green and white narrow robe.
Things in this world are not black and white, but there are always some people who think they are right, act to please the public, completely ignore the overall situation, and cause trouble that is difficult to end.
After discussions between the Imperial College officials headed by Qiao Yang and Mingluo and others, they quickly came to a conclusion on how to deal with Chang Miao.
The person who came forward was the Prime Minister of the Imperial Academy, not the magistrate——
Because what Chang Miao faces is not only the punishment related to this shooting match.
"Chang Miao, the supervisor of the Four Gates Hall, injured a classmate with a murder weapon on the playing field. The evidence is conclusive, and today's results are invalid. In addition, because his behavior is bad and cannot be taught, he will be removed from his status as a supervisor and will no longer be allowed to enter the Imperial College!"
What?!
Get rid of your status as a supervisor!
Chang Miao was shocked.
The Imperial College is a path to becoming an official. Even if the children of powerful people in the capital want to enter the Imperial College, they do not need to pass rigorous examinations, but the number of places is fixed. There are only two places in his family. It was his mother-in-law who begged for a long time before his father agreed to send him.
He entered the Imperial College!
But now...he is going to be expelled from the Imperial College?!
Chang Miao no longer dared to look at her father's face. There was only two words in her mind - it's over!
He didn't know where he got the strength to push the doctor away, gritted his teeth and barely supported his upper body, pointing in the direction of Qiao Jijiu: "There were fights in the school, but I haven't heard of anyone being expelled from the Imperial Academy because of this...
This treatment is clearly unfair! In the final analysis, this is simply Qiao Jijiu seeking favoritism for revenge!"
"That's enough!" Chang Tongchun interrupted him sternly: "You bastard, how dare you say something rude! Such a punishment is already a light punishment. You don't know how to repent, but you still have the nerve to slander the teacher here! It seems that I usually
I really indulge you too much!"
He felt that not only had he lost all his face in this life by this treacherous son, but he had even overdrafted his money in the next life!
While he was talking, he saw that the injured muscles and bones on Chang Miao's body had been roughly fixed by the doctors, so he said to the servant beside him: "Why don't you lift this embarrassing bastard off!"
Hearing this, the doctor who was about to give Changmiao medicine stopped and neatly put away the medicine if he was granted amnesty.
Okay, take it home and ask another doctor to treat it, whoever likes it can treat it.
Chang Miao was quickly carried down, and amidst everyone's discussion, Mrs. Chang's wife followed him crying, her head seemed to weigh a thousand pounds and she couldn't lift it up anymore.
With Chang Miao being carried away, the matter came to an end.
But everyone around showed no sign of dispersing - it's time to deal with it, so who will win today's kicking match?
The referee stepped forward and asked Qiao Yang for instructions: "Master Jijiu, this competition..."
Cui Lang stretched his neck to pay attention to the reactions of Qiao Jijiu and others.
He had a bold proposal that he didn't know whether to make or not -
They fought so hard, and their strength is obvious to all. In other words, today's top spot in the kickball competition should be regarded as theirs. It should be reasonable, right?
Seeing that his second brother's face seemed to have the four characters "Can you give it away for free" written on his face, Cui Tang didn't even notice.
But she is also very concerned about how today's game will end.
Qiao Jijiu and others began to discuss countermeasures.
Chang Suining held Qiao Yubai's bow stick in his hand and walked towards Cui Jing who was standing there.
She asked: "In the opinion of Governor Cui, how should this matter be properly handled?"
Cui Jing looked at her.
This is probably another time to move his bricks?
He then asked in a low voice: "What do you have in mind?"
Chang Suining then expressed what he had planned from the beginning——
"For the sake of fairness, I think there should be a rematch."
Under the golden sunlight, the girl's fair face, covered with a glistening layer of sweat, had a serious look on her face.
It turns out that this was her purpose.
To stir up more chaos is to fight for true justice.
After looking at each other for a moment, Cui Jing nodded slightly.
"Got it." he said.
Yuan Xiang on the side was puzzled - what does it mean to know?
"Is there any more?" Cui Jing asked.
Yuanxiang:...What else??
Chang Suining shook his head: "No more."
Yuan Xiang:...What's missing???
Cui Jing said "Yeah", turned around and walked under the pergola.
The scorching summer sun seemed to have dispelled some of the natural aura of loneliness between his deep brows and eyes.
Chang Suining showed a polite but sincere smile: "Thank you very much."
Cui Jing: "..."
Is it a good idea to thank him for this brick?
Yuanxiang:...What are you thanking for again?
He clearly understands every word, but why can't he understand a word of these seemingly simple conversations that are put together?
Yuan Xiang followed his governor back to the arbor in confusion, until he heard that his governor joined Qiao Jijiu and their discussion, and made a suggestion that the match should be rematched——
Yuan Xiang finally understood.
It turns out that the governor was conveying Mrs. Chang’s thoughts!
"A rematch is within the rules..." Qiao Jijiu thought for a moment and asked Mingluo: "What does Ming Nu Shi mean?"
The scene of Cui Jing and Chang Sui Ning standing together and talking flashed before Mingluo's eyes.
So, is it Chang Suining’s idea to rematch?
Is he sending a message for Chang Suining?
Even when facing Chang Miao just now, he actually fully cooperated with Chang Sui Ning's petty thoughts.
These trivial things are not worth mentioning to others, but to him, they are considered rare.
She was not someone who would be dazzled by mere speculation. She could naturally see that all his actions were innocent for the time being.
But her intuition told her that everything at the moment was not a good sign.
"Ming women's history?" Qiao Jijiu's voice brought Mingluo back to her thoughts.
