Letting go, the young man looked at Wei Xi and his companions leisurely, his eyes filled with deep gloating.

By now, Wei Xi had sobered up and realized that he had offended a noble in the capital.

But the girl was innocent and he didn't regret it!

"Brother Wei, it's okay to be patient for a while, just apologize and let it go!"

"Yes, Brother Wei, the Spring Examination is approaching, so don't create unnecessary trouble at this juncture!"

Listening to his companions' advice, Wei Xi sighed, lifted his robe and bowed perfunctorily, and then planned to leave.

But after taking a few steps, he was stopped by the young man again, with a hint of pride and frivolity in his eyes.

"You want to leave just by bowing? Ha, it's not that easy! Now, get under my crotch and kneel down to bark like a dog!"

"If you can't do this, forget about taking the Spring Examination. You will definitely not pass!"

Wei Xi gritted his teeth, feeling extremely humiliated.

...

...

What kind of world is this? Can you do whatever you want just because you have power and money?

"Haha, what are you still hesitating about? Kneel down quickly and get into your crotch and bark like a dog!"

The young man had a smug look on his face, looking down at Wei Xi as if he were looking at a dog.

He knew that these scholars from poor families were all very noble, and if they dared to ruin his good deeds, he would pin their pride to the ground and grind them into ashes inch by inch!

"Why don't you kneel down? A real man should be able to bend and stretch!"

"Yeah, yeah, it won't cost you a piece of meat if you drill through your crotch. We're still waiting to see the fun, hahahahaha!"

…

Listening to the discussions around him, Wei Xijun's face turned purple, and those friends who knew his character well were even more worried.

Taking a deep breath, Wei Xi suddenly raised his hand and slapped the arrogant young man.

Pointing at the young man's nose, he said sternly, "A real man kneels to heaven, earth, and his parents, but he won't kneel to a wicked person like you! How shameless are you to flirt with a girl in broad daylight!"

"You are the kind of dandy boys who are ignorant and domineering. You are simply parasites of the Great Yong State. If this continues, the country will be destroyed by people like you sooner or later!"

Then, before the young man could react, he left in a huff.

"Brother Wei, Brother Wei, wait for me, wait for me!"

"Walk slower, Brother Wei, walk slower!"

Several good friends chased after him, but he soon disappeared.

The young man, who had suffered such a great humiliation, was so angry that his fat face was distorted. He suddenly raised his hand and overturned the table in front of him.

"Really? How dare you be so disrespectful to me?"

"Let's go. I will tell my father what happened today. This shameless and lowly person has no right to pass the imperial examination!"

"I'm so angry, I'm so angry, I'm so angry!"

The young man's body swayed and he was immediately supported by his companions. His chest was heaving violently.

He was so angry that he suddenly grabbed Wei Xi's friend who had been leaving to deal with the aftermath, and started to rain down punches on him.

Screams and groans echoed throughout the huge restaurant, and people nearby came to watch the fun without any hesitation.

Time passed by little by little, and the person finally stopped breathing. The young man clapped his hands, looked around and said.

"If anyone dares to tell anyone about what happened today, I will peel off his skin and pull out his tendons!"

"Yes, yes, we didn't see anything, we didn't hear anything..."

After he finished speaking, the people around him nodded timidly, and soon dispersed for fear of being implicated.

After kicking the corpse, there was still no movement. The young man rolled his eyes and suddenly laughed viciously.

"The dead are just the right thing to recycle. I will give that scholar named Wei a great gift. I'll see if he can accept it!"

"Haha, this is a great way to attract trouble! Anyone who dares to offend you, young master, will be going against God, and in the end, they won't even know how they died!"

"Well said! To be able to come up with such a brilliant plan, our young master is really smart and knowledgeable!"

Amid the compliments, the young man straightened his back even more, and headed towards the Prime Minister's Mansion with a group of his men.

That’s right, he is Murong Hao, the eldest son of the prime minister and one of the most powerful little tyrants in the capital.

Before long, the case spread throughout the capital, with people saying that Wei Xi, a scholar preparing for an imperial examination, had killed someone, and the victim was a classmate who had come to the capital with him.

For a time, the public was excited and the matter attracted criticism from other scholars. It even spread to the palace and even the virtuous concubine and the queen knew about it.

Su Lili sat in the imperial study again, looking at a pile of similar memorials and feeling worried.

[No, no, Wei Xi is innocent. The real murderer is not him, but the eldest son of the Murong family! ]

[What should I do? How should I tell my father? The plot has started to develop according to the original novel. Soon Wei Xi will die unjustly in prison and become cannon fodder for Murong Hao's crime!]

[Wow, Wei Xi is so pitiful. Not only did he lose his confidant, but he was also slandered and ruined. He can't even save his life! ]

What? Wei Xi is innocent? The real murderer is the prime minister's son Murong Hao?

Emperor Jian'an's expression changed, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

[Alas, Wei Xi was a man of unparalleled talent. It is such a pity that he died unjustly in prison! ]

"Someone, someone, come!"

Emperor Jian'an really couldn't bear to listen any longer, so he gave an order and soon his trusted confidants arrived.

Taking a deep breath, Emperor Jian'an spoke as calmly as possible, "No matter what means you use, secretly investigate the truth of the scholar murder case in the capital. Remember to do it in secret, and the less noise the better."

"Yes." The confidant took the order and left as quickly as possible.

In his arms, Su Lili finally breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head and looked at her father, with a light sparkling in her big eyes.

[Amazing! Father is so amazing! He actually guessed that there is something fishy going on in the case! ]

[A wise ruler, a wise ruler, he is indeed a wise ruler. With my father in charge, the Great Yong Kingdom will surely become more and more prosperous! ]

Hearing the praise again, Emperor Jian'an's mouth corners began to rise again, and he gently touched Su Lili's little head.

"Please go to Weirui Palace. I will have dinner with Concubine Xian and her daughter tonight. If you have any new jewelry or toys, please send some to Concubine Xian."

"Yes, I obey your order."

Wang Yun rolled his eyes and added, "By the way, yesterday we presented a pair of red-gold hairpins, as well as a few exquisite jade ruyi, and a few red-gold and ruby ​​rings..."

"Very good, give half to Consort Xian, and the other half to my queen."

Emperor Jian'an nodded slightly, then got on the sedan chair and staggered towards the Weirui Palace.

Speaking of which, I haven't been with Concubine Xian for several months, and I really miss her.

The virtuous concubine has made an indispensable contribution in giving birth to such a smart and useful little fairy. She must be rewarded well and the little fairy must be made happy at the same time!

While walking on the sedan chair, Su Lili began to try hard to recall Wei Xi. It seemed that there were other plots related to him.
