Chapter 396: Capture

"That's good, that's good!"

Everyone was talking and laughing.

Only Dou Zhongli had a smile on his face, and he even took the initiative to praise Liang Mingxuan a few words, but it was unclear whether he was sincere or jealous.

The team moved in a line very quickly, and soon everyone went out, each looking for their own family, or going home or back to the inn.

Without exception, everyone couldn't help but secretly glance at Captain Yu and his group standing at the exit.

Captain Yu brought four yamen runners with him, all dressed neatly, with swords at their waists, and full of murderous intent.

Captain Yu was annoyed by Dou Zhongli's insidiousness and despicableness, and was determined to make him lose face once and for all, so he chose to arrest Dou Zhongli here instead of waiting for him in the inn.

As Dou Zhongli came out, the county school teacher pointed at him with a worried look on his face. Captain Yu waved his hand and said, "Take him away!"

The four yamen runners pounced on him like wolves and tigers and arrested Dou Zhongli in an instant.

"Don't move! Be quiet!"

There was an uproar.

"ah!"

"what happens?"

"this--"

"Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu, what's going on?"

Liang Mingxuan's eyes moved, he knew.

My brother and his wife are so amazing. They figured out the matter so quickly.

"Let me go! How dare you! Let me go!"

Dou Zhongli was forced to bend over with his hands tied behind his back. This posture was too humiliating. He felt ashamed and angry. His face and neck turned red and he struggled desperately.

One of the officers who was holding him slapped him on the head and yelled, "Behave yourself! Don't move!"

"you!"

Dou Zhongli was so angry that his vision went dark.

A lowly and vulgar government official lackey actually dared to hit him on the head and scold him.

He was so angry that he demolished someone's ancestral grave, but subconsciously he didn't dare to struggle because he was afraid of being beaten again.

It's not very harmful, but it's extremely insulting.

Dou Zhongli raised his head with difficulty and met Liang Mingxuan's eyes. Suddenly, a "boom" went off in his head.

"Liang Mingxuan! It's you! It's you, right? You must be the one who harmed me!"

"Liang Mingxuan, you despicable villain!"

Everyone was stunned again.

The stranger was surprised, confused and curious.

"Liang Mingxuan? Who is Liang Mingxuan?"

"Can this actually harm people? Is this true?"

"What's going on? Does it seem like there's something going on?"

"Does anyone know? Tell me quickly."

Everyone in the county school changed their expressions. They looked at Liang Mingxuan in surprise and doubt, then looked at Dou Zhongli, who was even more worried about the lawsuit. Question marks slowly appeared in their heads.

Dou Zhongli is a man of considerable talent and conceit, but he is always outshined by Liang Mingxuan, who is of the same age but younger than him. It is no secret in the county school that he likes to compete with Liang Mingxuan in everything.

But

To say that Liang Mingxuan harmed him?

Everyone still doesn't quite believe it.

"Is there any misunderstanding about this matter?"

"Yeah, it must be a misunderstanding."

"Junior Brother Dou, don't worry. The gentlemen will definitely negotiate with Lord Lu. Lord Lu is a good official and will definitely handle the matter fairly."

"Yeah, don't say anything careless. Why would Mingxuan hurt you when he was fine?"

Dou Zhongli almost vomited blood.

Yes, why did Liang Mingxuan harm him when he was fine? Because he harmed Liang Mingxuan!

This bitch, he must have guessed it. But, he only guessed, he couldn't have any evidence. So, why did the government arrest him? And in such a humiliating way?

This matter will never be over.

Dou Zhongli thought fiercely, "So what if Lord Lu is just a county magistrate? How can he possibly turn the tables?"

Wait for him

Isn't he partial to Liang Mingxuan?

He would make them all regret it.

Xu Zhichun and Liang Minglang came over.

"Mingxuan!"

"Brother, sister-in-law!"

Liang Minglang clasped his fists towards Captain Yu, glanced at Dou Zhongli, and sneered, "Is this the Dou Zhongli?"

Captain Yu arrested the man and refused to leave. He did it on purpose, and it was obvious that he wanted to make Dou Zhongli lose all face.

"Yes, this is Dou Zhongli."

Liang Minglang: "The net of heaven is vast and wide, and nothing can escape it. Dou Zhongli, your two servants have already confessed everything. We have witnesses and evidence. Stop crying foul and go to the government office and confess your guilt."

The students were stunned again.

What is going on here?

Good heavens! How many surprises awaited them.

How come each piece of news is more explosive than the last.

Dou Zhongli's face flushed and he gritted his teeth, "I don't know what you're talking about! Slander, slander!"

Liang Minglang said disdainfully: "You have dirty thoughts and despicable means, yet you dare not take responsibility for what you have done. You haven't learned the integrity and noble character of a scholar at all. You use all your thoughts to harm others. What kind of scholar are you?"

"Shut up! Who do you think you are? How dare you say that to me!"

"You dare to do it, but you're afraid of what people will say?"

"No! I didn't do it! It wasn't me!"

Xu Zhichun: "You didn't do it? It wasn't you? Do you know what we are talking about?"

Dou Zhongli choked.

The others' expressions changed slightly.

Dou Zhongli's answer clearly showed that he knew something, but Mingxuan's elder brother never said what it was. So, he really did something.

The few people who had just lined up with them had already thought of it. Could it be what they thought?

That's too despicable!

"So what's going on?"

"Yes, yes, tell me!"

"Hurry up and tell me, I'm almost dying of anxiety."

Liang Minglang: "Everyone, the government will issue an announcement to clarify what happened. We haven't heard anything yet, so it's hard for us to say anything. Everyone, please go home. We have an exam tomorrow. Please pay attention to your diet these next two days to prevent any mistakes. It would be terrible if it affects the exam. Finally, I wish you all good grades!"

Liang Minglang, Xu Zhichun and Liang Mingxuan left.

Captain Yu then shouted, "Get out of the way!" and "Make way!" and ordered his men to take Dou Zhongli to the yamen.

A large group of students suddenly surrounded Mr. Lu, and many of them followed him to the government office, ready to taste the fresh melons firsthand.

After all, it is rare to see a student being taken away by the government like a criminal right after he came out of the examination hall.

Dou Zhongli, that person’s name is Dou Zhongli, right?

I don’t know what crime he has committed. Tsk tsk, he is a scholar, but his character is really low.

Mr. Lu was too embarrassed to talk about what happened in the county school. He sighed and told the students to go back to the inn first.

Let’s go back to the inn and talk about it behind closed doors.

These gentlemen have already been shocked and need to calm down and deal with the aftermath.

The most important thing is to reassure everyone and not let this incident affect everyone's exams.

By the way, let this be a warning to everyone, so that everyone can learn a lesson from this: Don’t have the intention to harm others, but always be on guard against others!

What is this!

After returning to the inn, the students heard about this and all sighed.

Many people were terrified. Fortunately, Dou Zhongli did not act so cruelly as to drug everyone, otherwise today would have been a disaster.

No one is as lucky as Liang Mingxuan.

If the exam is delayed, what’s the point even if it is later found out that the culprit is Dou Zhongli?

This person is so scary
