Su Yijue rushed to Su Yizhao and said anxiously: "If we continue like this, not only will we not be able to seek justice, I am afraid that our Su family will also suffer."
He has already sent a letter to the capital, but it is impossible for the capital to receive the news so quickly.
Before that, they could only figure it out on their own.
"I have already written to my grandfather, but before that, we must delay and not let the negative rumors get worse."
Seeing that Su Yizhao was still painting, Su Yijue was so angry that he stepped forward and took the brush away from her hand.
Su Yizhao couldn't help but sigh when he saw a drop of black ink stained on the landscape map.
She has made progress in her landscape painting recently and was very inspired today. However, this inspiration was interrupted by Su Yijue.
She finally raised her head to look at Su Yijue, only to find that Fifth Brother, who used to be calm and composed, actually remembered that he had no time to tidy up his appearance.
"This can't be rushed, don't worry! It's not time yet." Su Yizhao simply cleaned his hands and threw the painting into the copper basin.
The drop of ink was so big that it ruined the entire painting.
Although she was very satisfied with the unfinished painting, it was destroyed if it was destroyed, so she threw it away simply.
That drop of ink is like a shit stirrer, no matter where it goes, it is disgusting.
"You already have a countermeasure? Can you tell me about it? After all, this is not your business alone, but concerns the whole clan."
Su Yijue looked at Su Yizhao suspiciously. It was not that he underestimated Su Yizhao, but that Su Yizhao was alone. What ability could he have to turn things around?
"Young Master! The Second Old Master and the others are here!" The waiter's voice happened to sound outside the door.
Su Yijue frowned, "The clan already knows about it, and I don't know how they will deal with it. Let's go!"
Su Yizhao simply tidied up and then followed Su Yijue to the front hall.
As soon as he entered the front hall, Su Yizhao heard the angry voice of the second old man, "Xiao Qi, please kneel down!"
Su Yijue frowned. He glanced at Su Yizhao, who was still calm, and felt a little irritable.
What does Su Yizhao rely on, and why is he not anxious at all?
"May I ask my second uncle, what mistake did Xiao Qi make?"
Su Yizhao took a step forward, saluted several elders in the clan, and then asked unhurriedly.
The second old man's face turned red with anger, and then he pointed at Su Yizhao and scolded: "You still have the nerve to say it? Do you know what rumors are being said about our Su family at the moment? I am even ashamed to say it."
"Xiao Qi, this is your fault. It was a gratifying thing to come in second place, but you ended up in such a mess. How will you face everyone at the banquet in two days?"
The third old man was also very dissatisfied and scolded him.
"Do you know what the rumors are outside? It is said that you are jealous of Meng Lingxi's talent, impetuous, eager for quick success, and unwilling to lag behind him, so you want to take the opportunity to slander him. I heard that he fainted from anger that day. In the past two days, he was
Stay in bed and rest."
The second old man felt that such a reputation was simply discrediting the Su family, so he was very angry.
"He was so angry that he fainted? Is it true or false?" Su Yizhao was dumbfounded. Is he so fragile?
Su Yijue twitched the corner of her mouth when she heard this. Is this the focus that should be paid attention to?
The second old man did not expect that Su Yizhao was not ashamed of such a reputation and was still laughing at Meng Lingxi, and his chest heaved violently with anger.
Only then did he remember that this was Su Wenqing's son. Su Wenqing was so out of tune. They were really from the same origin!
Su Wenqing's two sons look very much like Su Wenqing.
If I had known earlier, I should have tried my best to dissuade my eldest brother and deal with Su Wenqing. The disaster will last for thousands of years and will bring disaster to the Su family sooner or later.
Suddenly he felt even worse. No, he was a little dizzy.
"Xiao Shiqi! Third uncle knows that you are the leader of the case in the county examination. He is a little reluctant to fail to get Jieyuan in the township examination, but you have to accept your fate! Then Meng Lingxi is a close disciple of the chief minister, how can he be fooled?
"
When the third old man saw that his second brother was so angry that he stopped being angry, he immediately said:
"Xiao Shiqi, listen to Uncle Wu's advice, you still have a bright future. This is just a provincial examination. Wait for next year's national examination. If you work harder and pass the Huiyuan examination, won't you feel proud?"
Su Wenhui felt that this kid was smart and should not go astray, so he advised him.
"Yes! Listen to your fifth uncle, come with us tomorrow to make amends to the Meng family and expose this matter so as not to affect your future." Su Wenyue also advised.
Su Yizhao sneered inwardly, and his guess was quite good, and he convicted her without even asking what the truth was.
For them, no matter who was at fault in this matter, Su Yizhao would definitely pay for it with this gift.
Su Yijue was also a little angry at this moment, "Second uncle, elders, this matter is simply someone's malicious slander. I believe that Xiao Qi will not be unintentional. There is no need for him to do this deliberately. What good will it do to him?"
"Eh~" The third old man waved his hand, "You're a young man! It's understandable to make mistakes if you get distracted for a moment. After all, you have little experience and can't withstand setbacks."
Even Su Yijue was angry at this time, "Why don't my uncles ask the whole story? This matter is obviously his fellow Meng..."
Su Yijue stopped talking when he realized he had made a mistake.
"So what if it is? Don't you see the menace over there? It's not easy for your grandfather to be an official in the court. You are making enemies for him. It's just a difference of one place and you gave it to the second place." The second old man
He immediately said angrily.
Su Yizhao finally sneered after hearing this: "So I have to thank them for not killing them all and giving me second place. Do I need to be grateful?"
"Xiao Qi, is this your attitude towards your elders?" Su Wenhui scolded.
"A real man can bend and stretch, but today you are just a piece of fish, so you can only be at the mercy of others."
The third old man sighed. He knew that young people are impulsive, but after practicing a few times, they will realize that in this world, being powerless is the original sin.
"If it weren't for the Su family, you might not even be able to see your name on the list." Su Wenyue sighed.
"Our Su family is a well-established family after all, but I never expected that one day we would have to bow down to the powerful and have to bow to the powerful. We have lost our pride as a scholar, and we have also lost our family's integrity."
Su Yijue's eyes were full of disappointment. His grandfather had always taught him that his integrity should not be lost, otherwise he would have no principles and the family would eventually decline.
"Where is my Su family's character?"
The sound was not loud, but it echoed in the front hall and struck everyone's hearts, like a bell in the morning and a drum in the evening, making people's hearts tremble with pain.
The second old man pointed at the two of them with trembling fingers, "Okay! Since you are unwilling to bow your head, I would like to see how you can turn things around. But the ugly words have to be said first. If it threatens the interests of the Su family, then don't blame me for not staying.
feelings."
Su Yizhao and Su Yijue looked at each other, their eyes full of determination.
