When Jin Wenzheng was woken up by Deng Duo with big-eared melon seeds, and after understanding the situation, his first reaction was to reach under the pillow.
Deng Duo had quick eyesight and quick hands, so he punched his wrist quickly, then raised his elbow sharply and removed his arm.
Jin Wenzheng screamed and rolled over on the bed. Deng Duo opened the pillow and saw that it was not the dagger he imagined, but a small blue pill.
"What is this?" Deng Duo dragged Jin Wenzheng up like a dead dog with one hand, holding pills and asked.
"Xiao, Xiaoyao Wan." Jin Wenzheng said as a big man.
"The kind that will kill you if you eat it?" Zhu Zhen asked.
"Yeah." Jin Wenzheng nodded.
"Since you have this, why didn't you eat it last night?" Zhu Zhen asked in confusion.
"Alas..." Jin Wenzheng sighed, lowered his head and said, "Death is the only solution to all the difficulties."
"Okay, that's right." Zhu Zhen gave him a big thumbs up.
He originally thought that scholars liked to persuade others to die, but he cherished his life very much, so he did not think about Jin Wenzheng's suicide at first.
Instead, he waited for this guy to come to his door and beg for a way out.
As a result, I didn't wait for anyone to come all night, so I thought something bad had happened and that I had gone too far.
I rushed over to see, good guy, he really planned to be a little cruel to me. But luckily, it wasn't too cruel...
~~
When Lao Liu and Deng Duo took the dejected Jin Wenzheng out of the official residence, they saw Luo Guanzhong and Hu Xian coming out on the other side with a gloomy-looking Chen Qianfu.
"Hey, this one is also alive." Lao Liu was very surprised. He had given up hope. He thought that since Chen Qianfu gave Jin Wenzheng the 'Xiaoyao Pill', he must have taken it himself. It was almost gone now.
Is it cool?
He asked Teacher Luo and his cousin to go over to collect Chen Qianfu's body. Unexpectedly, the old man was not dead either...
"Who knows, his medicine bottle is still in the box." Luo Guanzhong patted the box under his arm.
"Then let's take it back together." Lao Liu touched his mouth, and the tooth powder had solidified.
So Jin Wenzheng and Chen Qianfu were escorted to the Shengxing Hall together.
"How did you promise me?" Chen Qianfu glanced at Jin Wenzheng standing aside.
"Before I had time to take the medicine, they poked me in the arm." Jin Wenzheng said with a grimace.
"Oh, it's really not enough." Chen Qianfu sighed: "You listen to me and eat it early, won't you not suffer this fate?"
"You're still talking about me, why haven't you eaten yet?" Jin Wenzheng said angrily.
"What's the use of talking about this now?" Chen Qianfu had a wry smile on his lips and didn't want to answer him.
"Idiot, he thinks that as long as you eat, he doesn't have to eat." Lao Liu laughed and exposed him.
"The old man is greedy for life and afraid of death!" Jin Wenzheng was so angry that his nose became crooked.
"Hahaha, so men should be cruel to themselves..." Zhu Zhen laughed and was about to make fun of these two people when he heard a commotion in front of him.
"Stop!" But a group of angry lecturers blocked the way.
Deng Duo and the two hurriedly protected Zhu Zhen behind them. Teacher Luo thought about it and decided to end it on his own...
"What are you going to do?" Hu Xian shouted loudly.
"I should ask you this!" He Cao and several leading officials loudly asked: "When will Shengzhen Hall be able to arrest people like Yingtian Mansion?!"
"Even Yingtian Mansion cannot arrest the imperial officials at will!" Tian Zizhen and the others shouted in agreement: "There should be a limit to the reckless behavior!"
"It's only been a few days since I took office? I've already beaten our teaching assistants and medical officers, and now we're going to arrest them again!" More officials followed up and said indignantly: "Wang Siye doesn't care about Song Jijiu? Are you just going to let you do whatever you want?
?!"
"Let them go, let them go!" All the voices converged into one.
Hu Xian looked back at Lao Liu and patted his waist.
I mean, show your brand.
Zhu Zhen also knew that a quarrel with these scholars would be unwinnable, so he nodded.
Hu Xiangang was about to show off his Thousand Households card, but he heard a loud shout: "What are you all doing here? How can you be a role model for others when you have no rules and gather people to make noise?!"
"Sacrifice wine." All the academic officials quickly bowed and saluted conditionedly, and moved aside. But they kept saying:
"You have to make the decision for Dr. Chen and Assistant Professor Jin!"
"Otherwise, Guozixue will become the world dominated by Shengzhen Hall..."
"Sacrifice wine..."
"You all shut up." Song Jijiu glanced at everyone, then looked at Mr. Qianfu and Jin Wenzheng, and finally his eyes fell on Lao Liu's face.
"Come with me."
Lao Liu nodded and saw Team Leader Wang hurried over with his men.
"Take Lao Wang and the others and watch them here." He ordered Hu Xian, and then followed Song Ne to the small courtyard where Jijiu lived.
~~
The layout of Song Ne's courtyard is exactly the same as Wang Siye's, but it doesn't have the literati and elegant taste of Wang Siye. It's still full of books everywhere.
"Sit wherever you want." Song Ne moved a pile of teaching plans to Zhu Zhen and made room for him.
Zhu Zhen lifted the hem of his robe, Shi Shiran sat down and said, "What's the use of offering wine? Are there any math problems that you can't solve?"
Song Ne looked at Zhu Zhen's big face with tooth powder still stuck on it, sighed and said: "I should ask you, why do you come to study at Guozi?"
"What a strange question to ask." Zhu Zhen smiled lightly and said, "The official has been following the instructions of the wine sacrifice."
"My order?" Song Ne frowned.
"That's right." Zhu Zhen said with a smile: "Then Zhou Buji's cousin Zhou Zhaoji was sent to me by someone who arranged the wine ceremony, right? You taught him those words, right?"
"..." Song Ne did not deny it.
"With such painstaking arrangements for the wine ceremony, didn't you just ask me to check on Jin Wenzheng?" Zhu Zhen said with a smile: "I just didn't expect him to be so cooperative and actually bring Chen Qianfu out again."
"Okay..." Song Ne pondered for a while, then Fang slowly nodded and said: "I did arrange Zhou Zhaoji, but there was not a single lie in what he said - after Zhou Buji's accident, I have been secretly investigating the cause of his death, and then investigated
Come to these situations.
"Actually, even if I don't do much, with my respectable ability, I believe I will be able to find out sooner or later. I just want you to see what you need to see quickly."
"Okay, I like Jijiu's temperament. Everyone is very busy and don't have time to do ink." Zhu Zhen smiled and nodded: "The sooner we can get it done, the better."
"That's right. Finish things quickly and leave Guozixue as soon as possible." Song Ne nodded.
"No. Do you think Jijiu thinks that just by arresting a few people, the problem of Guoxue will be solved?" Zhu Zhen said with a confused look on his face.
"Isn't it?" Song Ne said in a deep voice: "If the troublemaker is found, everything will return to normal!"
"No, no, that is just treating the symptoms but not the root cause." Zhu Zhen shook his head and said: "Through these days of investigation, I can responsibly say that those people only amplified the problems of Guozixue, but they are not the root of the problems.
.How can the matter be settled when the root cause has not yet been uncovered?”
"Just tell me, the root cause is me." Song Ne snorted.
"You are quite self-aware." Zhu Zhen laughed loudly.
