"Does Miss Shen suspect that I tampered with your question paper?" Master Xu's expression changed, "You and I are strangers, why would you do such a thing?"
Chen Fengxu smiled faintly: "A gentleman is known as righteousness, and a villain is known as benefit."
The implication is that Master Xu took advantage of others.
Master Xu was about to speak when she suddenly saw everyone on the side looking at her, with doubts in their eyes. Those glances were like sharp blades, exposing everything in her heart. She I was immediately panicked.
"I didn't!" she shouted.
However, Shen Fengxu stopped looking at Master Xu. Instead, he turned to look at Ji Weizhi and asked: "Chief, I did not draw this mark. Since I did not cheat, I should be able to enter the school, right?"
Ji Weizhi raised his eyes and glanced at the eldest lady.
Of course Ji Weizhi wanted Shen Fengxu to enroll, but it was not Bailu Academy that refused to let Shen Fengxu enroll, but the eldest lady. Although the eldest lady had spoken uprightly before, she obviously did not want Shen Fengxu to enroll.
Regardless of what the eldest lady was thinking, at least she still had a dignified and calm smile on her face: "Yes, things are clear now, Feng Xu did not cheat."
As she spoke, the fingers hidden under her sleeves were already tense, and her nails as red as Dankou were almost broken.
Ji Weizhi then laughed: "That's natural. The girl is innocent and has outstanding literary talent, so she can naturally enroll in school. After the results are released, please invite the girl to come and register."
"Thank you, Chief Shan." A sweet smile appeared on Shen Fengxu's face.
Ji Weizhi's eyes fell on Master Xu again, and he cleared his throat: "Master Xu, regarding the marks on the question paper..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Master Xu: "Shan Chief, I did not draw this mark!"
"I have never seen so many masters in the academy, but Master Xu saw it alone and was so aggressive. It was just to prevent me from enrolling. I would like to ask, since we are strangers to each other, why did the master next to me not say anything? "Only Master Xu is pressing forward like this?" Chen Fengxu smiled lightly, but there was a bottomless cold light in his eyes.
Master Xu gritted his teeth tightly and said: "It's just because there are school rules in the academy. I just act according to the rules. It's not against anyone. If what happened today was not Miss Shen but someone else, I would do the same!" "
"Master Xu refuses to admit it, so that's easy to handle, but I don't know what kind of ink Master Xu used. Is it the same as the ink on the question paper?" Shen Fengxu asked slowly.
Master Xu's face turned pale.
Since the mark was drawn by her, the ink used was naturally the same.
But she was still quibbling: "What I use is just ordinary ink, which is the same as most of the masters in the academy. What can I prove?"
"Oh?" The smile on Chen Fengxu's face was as warm as spring, "So, Master Xu already knows that the ink used for this mark is the same as Master Xu's?"
"I..." Cold sweat dripped from Master Xu's forehead.
Master Yang felt very happy in his heart and said: "Master Xu, Master Ji has always been kind to others. If you speak frankly, Master Ji will not be harsh on you."
Frankly speaking? Wouldn't her future be ruined?
The eldest lady never said a word. She believed that Master Xu was a smart person. If Master Xu said nothing, even if it would hinder her future, it would not be harmful. But if Master Xu would collude with the eldest lady to slander Shen Fengxu One thing is exposed, then...
Master Xu's life will only end here.
With the eldest lady's methods, she will never let Master Xu go.
Master Xu glanced at the eldest lady out of the corner of his eye. He only saw the eldest lady's eyes as dark as the night, and his heart sank again.
The eldest lady will definitely not save her.
But fortunately, there was no conclusive evidence on this matter, and Mrs. Xu could still argue. Others were suspicious of her at most, but they could never prove the matter, so she said: "Miss Shen, of course you can doubt me, but I can only say , I am innocent and have a clear conscience. I have never done anything like this. Even the mountain chief cannot convict me for no reason!"
"What a clear conscience." Chen Fengxu smiled slightly, "Master Xu is not afraid of flashing his tongue."
Seeing that the matter was becoming increasingly out of control, Ji Weizhi had no choice but to come out to calm the situation.
He coughed, drawing everyone's attention back to himself, and then said: "There is no need to say more about today's matter. Miss Shen has proved her innocence. She has not cheated. After the results are released, she will naturally You can come and enroll."
Everyone nodded, and naturally no one had any objections to this point.
Even the eldest lady couldn't say anything. Although she didn't want Shen Fengxu to go to school, she needed a justifiable reason and couldn't let Shen Fengxu drop out of school for no reason. After all, the reputation of being harsh to her daughter was not good.
"As for Master Xu..." Ji Weizhi paused for a moment.
Master Xu's back immediately tensed up. She looked at Ji Weizhi, feeling uneasy.
"Although Master Xu was devoted to the rules and reputation of the academy, he almost tarnished Miss Shen's reputation and prevented Miss Shen from enrolling in school. Therefore, Master Xu should be punished to teach at Anzhou Academy."
Master Xu's face turned pale, but he did not argue.
Going to a remote place like Anzhou, how could she have the security and comfort of White Deer Academy? But now that the matter had come to this, she could only accept it calmly. It was not exposed and her reputation was not ruined, which gave her a little peace of mind.
But when she turned around to look, the eyes of all the masters had changed. They were either contemptuous or disdainful. She wished she could find a crack in the ground and crawl in.
"It's really an advantage for her." Master Yang said sarcastically.
But Master Xu didn't dare to argue anything, so he could only bite his lips.
Shen Fengxu didn't expect to get Master Xu to confess to the eldest lady. After all, she had no evidence.
Ji Weizhi raised his eyes to look at the eldest lady again and smiled warmly: "Today's incident is all a misunderstanding in the final analysis. Please don't take it to heart. After the results are released, let your wife come to school."
The eldest lady could only smile and reply: "It doesn't matter. In that case, I won't disturb you all."
"Madam, walk slowly." Ji Weizhi nodded slightly and said.
So the eldest lady looked at Shen Fengxu, with a cold look in her eyes: "Fengxu, let's go."
This time Shen Fengxu responded obediently: "Okay."
After saying that, he followed the eldest lady to the outside of Bailu Academy.
All the way out of the academy, the eldest lady looked gloomy and said nothing. Until she got on the carriage, she leaned back without even looking at Shen Fengxu.
But Shen Fengxu called the eldest lady softly: "Mom, it's still early, and Fengxu doesn't want to go back yet."
