"Our place is small, so it's normal that you don't know. Even I only learned the truth recently. The famous Gong Liangliao that you and I thought was just a poor old man who offended the powerful and was banished from the capital and can never return."
Qin Yao's mouth twitched slightly, thinking to herself, "I already knew it a long time ago! I just didn't tell you."
With a slightly surprised look on his face, as if to say "I just found out", he asked tentatively, "Did they humiliate you three masters and apprentices as well?"
Liu Ji shook his head. "After all, Senior Brother is the great-grandson that the Prime Minister loves. Besides, he has his uncle, Prefect He, here. Who in Zijing Prefecture dares to say anything about him?"
Besides, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Although Gong Liangliao offended the powerful and was in a desperate situation, he was knowledgeable. In order to maintain the ethical principles of the prosperous country, he did not hesitate to offend the eldest princess. Many Confucian scholars supported him.
Some people even took him as an example and made direct appeals at the risk of their lives, requesting His Majesty to severely punish the eldest princess and to reinstate Gong Liangliao as the Prince's Tutor.
Of course, Gong Liangliao himself was speechless about this kind of blockheaded scholar.
He put this bloody lesson before everyone in order to warn future generations not to act impulsively.
The result is that they actually followed suit, which is a complete opposite understanding.
So, to sum up, Liu Ji was the only one who was bullied, and his teacher and seniors could not protect him much.
It is impossible for the three masters and apprentices to stick together all the time. Everyone has their own things to do.
And it was impossible for Liu Ji to hide behind his master and senior brothers all his life. If he were such a coward, Gong Liangliao would definitely kick him away.
A man's dignity has to be earned by himself!
But just because of his background, for those noble young men from aristocratic families, the fact that someone with Liu Ji's background could appear in Guangwen Library and study with them was in itself an act of usurpation and provocation to them.
Moreover, this country bumpkin has an extraordinary appearance. Such a mere country bumpkin makes these noble gentlemen look like supporting roles. It would be strange if they liked him!
Liu Ji stole a glance at Qin Yao and saw that she looked a little cold. He raised his sleeve to symbolically wipe the corners of his eyes.
"My dear, don't worry too much about me. As long as I can pass the imperial examination, this little suffering is nothing. They just make a few taunts and sometimes find excuses to make me bark like a dog in public to please them, and then use my status to force me to serve them tea. I can bear it and it will pass."
"As long as I can stay in the library, read those rare books, and earn an imperial decree for you, this little grievance is really nothing."
"I was thinking about the silver all the time. I was wrong. I shouldn't be so vain. I wanted to buy them gifts with the silver so that I could have some peace and quiet and have time to concentrate on my studies."
Liu Ji sniffed, stood up firmly, and looked at the pink-dressed woman in front of him with emotion, "My dear, I am already satisfied that you can come to see me."
Qin Yao took a deep breath, looked at the strong 'little green bamboo' in front of her, looked outside the house, and suddenly asked:
"Is everyone in town?"
Liu Ji hummed, then suddenly showed a panicked look, "Madam, you are not going to teach them a lesson for me, are you? How can these people trouble you to do it? I will bear it and it will pass. Madam, please don't dirty your hands, it's not worth it for me."
Qin Yao stared at his handsome face, which looked even more handsome in the moonlight, and snorted with an unspeakable expression, "I didn't even ask you to bark like a dog, how dare they!"
"Put on your clothes and let's go." Qin Yao urged.
While Liu Ji was dressing quickly, he asked weakly, "Madam, where are you going?"
She said coldly: "I will avenge you."
The grim tone and suddenly fierce look seemed somewhat scary under the faint moonlight.
Liu Ji swallowed guiltily, thinking, is she going to chop off someone's head again?
Have I said too much?
Before he could figure it out, a gust of wind blew in front of him. When he looked up again, Qin Yao had hugged him by the waist and brought him to the roof.
It was the first time that Liu Ji stood so high up, with a broad view, as if he could put the whole city under his feet.
This tastes damn good!
However, reason still told him that he had to quickly stop the woman in front of him who was about to lose her temper, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
"My dear, let's go back. You just arrived in the city and haven't had time to rest. It's so late, go back to the inn and sleep first." Liu Ji grabbed her sleeve tightly and persuaded her.
Qin Yao glanced at him sideways, "Why, you don't want revenge anymore?"
Liu Ji shook his head, of course not, he would never let go of any grudge!
It's just not the right time yet.
"Madam, please take me down first and I will tell you in detail." Liu Ji pointed to the guest house under his feet. He lowered his head and took a look. Wow, it was really high!
Qin Yao didn't move, she crossed her arms and stared at him, "Just say it right here."
".Okay." Liu Ji thought it was okay to talk about it here.
He squatted carefully, touched the tiles, and sat down.
There is a crescent moon in the sky, the lights in the downtown area in the distance are bright, and the cool breeze is blowing, making people feel comfortable.
After feeling depressed for so long, Liu Ji finally felt a moment of comfort as he looked at the lights of thousands of homes.
Qin Yao sat down beside him, bent one leg, put her elbow on her knee, and tilted her head to signal him to speak quickly.
Seeing the anxiety in her eyes, Liu Ji tilted his head and blinked, and this time the wind really blew out two tears.
Oh, my wife is so nice!
"In fact, I have found a solution, but I don't have any money at the moment, so it's a bit difficult to act."
Liu Ji narrowed his eyes slightly, full of dark calculations, and raised a sinister smile at the corner of his mouth, saying faintly:
"That man came to the library with his good friend. They relied on their family background to make things difficult for me. The other young masters only followed them to curry favor with them."
The two of them had a very good relationship. They played with women together, ate delicious food together, and slept together every day as if they were one person. Their brotherhood was indestructible.
The only thing in common is that they both care a lot about their status in the eyes of outsiders. Whenever someone praises one of them, the smile of the other becomes a little forced.
So, he just made a provocative remark, saying that those young masters felt that one of them was more gentlemanly than the other, and the atmosphere between the two of them became weird.
"My life has been much better these past two days. The two dogs are suspicious of each other. All I need is for me to add fuel to the fire. The jealous dog will go crazy and bite the other to death!"
In front of Qin Yao, Liu Ji did not hide his dark side at all, not even pretending.
After all, no one knows his true nature better than the evil woman, so there is no need to cover it up.
Qin Yao clicked her tongue twice, "Liu San'er, you old bastard, after all, it's still his father's money!"
She raised her hand and was about to hit him, but Liu Ji rushed to put his handsome face in front of her and said sadly, "Go ahead and hit me, my lady. It's better to be hit by you than by those two dogs."
Qin Yao raised her hand and hesitated for a moment.
Kicked him down!
