Chapter 383: Small Matters Become Big
Wen Yan had been pampered since childhood, and should know that Lin was covered in wounds and in low health.
The two of them carried Qi Yunzhou, and Wen Yanzou was struggling.
The hands that were holding up the door panel couldn't bear the strength and began to tremble.
If Qi Yunzhou had not been able to move the things while lying flat, Ying Zhilin would not have wanted to let her suffer.
However, Wen Yan gritted her teeth and endured it, even quickening her pace.
At least you have to leave the alley before you run out of energy so that you can ask for help and find someone to help you.
Suddenly, there was a flurry of footsteps coming from the front.
Wen Yan's heart skipped a beat: "No way!
I can’t be so unlucky, I must be coming to the enemy!”
"Miss!"
When Pei'er saw Wen Yan doing hard labor, she felt so distressed.
He immediately ran over to help Wen Yan lift the door panel to reduce the burden.
"Senior Brother!" Behind Pei'er, a tall man with a youthful look followed closely.
It was the young leader Yuan.
He followed closely and saw that Ying Zhilin had a bruised face and nose, so he wanted to take over his burden.
But Ying Zhilin dodged it: "Help my wife first."
"Don't worry, your good wife won't be tired." Leader Yuan complained unhappily, and while forcefully taking over the burden, he winked at his subordinates.
His men immediately took over the burden from Wen Yan and Pei'er.
Wen Yan shook his sore hands and said, "His condition is very critical now. Send him to see a doctor first. He can't die! Go to Tonghe Hall."
Leader Yuan waved his hand and said, "Listen to my sister-in-law. Send the person to Tonghe Hall immediately."
Wen Yan reminded him again: "Be sure to find Doctor Lin."
Although Doctor Lin is good at internal medicine, he is not good at external injuries.
But he is old, easy-going and popular.
If he found that he couldn't treat a disease, he would definitely go to the Imperial Medical Bureau to ask for help, and he would ask the most experienced person.
The young leader Yuan took off the jade token from his waist and threw it to one of his men: "Take my jade pendant and go quickly."
When his subordinates saw that he even showed off the jade pendant, they knew how much he valued this matter.
Not daring to delay any longer, he immediately started jogging while carrying the stretcher, while ensuring that the person on the stretcher was not shaken at all.
There were two other people accompanying him for protection.
These subordinates of Leader Yuan walked with steady and powerful steps, and did things in a very methodical manner. It was obvious at first glance that they were not simple people.
After seeing the people leave safely, Wen Yan first thanked the young leader Yuan: "Thank you so much for today. If it weren't for you, Zhilin and I wouldn't have been able to hold on for much longer."
"It's just a small favor." Leader Yuan waved his hand. "What on earth happened? Senior Brother has ended up like this!"
Wen Yan glanced at Ying Zhilin and then explained the matter briefly.
She looked at Pei'er again, "Didn't I tell you to go to Jingzhao Prefecture to report the case? Why did you go to the little leader Shangyuan?"
Pei'er quickly explained, "I was too far away from Jingzhao Prefecture at the time, and Chief Yuan happened to be doing business nearby, so I went to him for help."
Wen Yan was curious about why Pei'er knew the whereabouts of the young leader Yuan.
But now was not the time to ask further questions, so she suppressed her doubts.
The young leader Yuan said, "Don't worry. Before rushing over here, I had already sent someone to Jingzhao Prefecture to report the case. The people from Jingzhao Prefecture should be here soon."
"It's good that you've reported it to the authorities. This matter is of no small importance. In broad daylight, someone actually attacked the candidates taking the imperial examination. I don't know what their intentions are." Wen Yan supported Ying Zhilin and said angrily.
“Those people were really ruthless.
Not only did he beat Qi Yunzhou to the point of near death, he also brutally attacked Zhilin. If I hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid Zhilin would have suffered the same fate as Qi Yunzhou."
Wen Yan lowered her head, her shoulders twitching, like a wife who was worried about her husband.
Ying Zhilin knew that the affection she showed was all a confusing fog.
She wanted to use the power of the young leader Yuan to thoroughly investigate the matter and catch Huo Yaoxing.
But even though he knew it was fake, Ying Zhilin still couldn't help but sink into it.
Even if it was just a pretense to please him, he was happy to do it.
She even angrily hit Ying Zhilin lightly: "Tell me the truth, have you offended anyone recently and been maliciously retaliated against? What does this have to do with Mr. Qi?"
Ying Zhilin said: "No. We seldom go out because of the exam preparations.
We even rejected invitations to parties from other students, so we had no chance to offend anyone."
"That's strange. Why would the mastermind behind this want to cause trouble for you two?
It's okay for you, the champion of the last provincial examination. Some people think you're in the way and want to punish you, but what does this have to do with Qi Yunzhou? He only ranked tenth last time.
With such a famous article, one might not even have a chance of passing the imperial examination."
Wen Yan seemed to be analyzing like a headless fly.
In fact, every sentence was guiding the young leader Yuan and linking the cause and effect to the imperial examination.
Wen Yan originally wanted to suppress Huo Yaoxing.
No matter what, you should stir it up a little.
What's more, the Huo family is now knocking on our door.
Wen Yan directly involved his personal grudge with the imperial examination, making a small matter out of a big one.
The imperial examination, held every three years, was an important form of talent selection for the imperial court.
Someone dared to kill students in the capital, which was simply rubbing the emperor's face on the ground.
Once this matter is brought to the attention of higher authorities, it will be investigated strictly and thoroughly.
If this incident could be used to link the Huo family to cheating in the imperial examinations.
Huo Yaoxing will never be able to make a name for himself in this life.
really.
Then I saw that the look in the eyes of the young leader Yuan was gloomy and unclear.
Every time there is a spring examination, it is common for candidates to plot against each other and create obstacles.
Scholars care about face and are hypocritical, and they do all of this in a very subtle way.
What happened today, openly and blatantly killing someone, is not like the style of those scholars.
It was so cruel that it seemed like a personal revenge.
Wen Yan was just using the name of the imperial examination to make things bigger.
It would be best if it could be found out, but if it can’t, the government can still serve as a deterrent.
The murderer in the dark will not dare to act rashly again.
The young leader Yuan's mind raced as he saw through Wen Yan's plan.
But he didn't expose it.
The unhealthy tendencies in the imperial examinations have become increasingly rampant in recent years. We might as well take this opportunity to rectify them.
I can also do a favor for Wen Yan.
"Don't worry, I will personally supervise and investigate this matter. If you have any injuries, go to the clinic and get them treated first."
Just then, people from the government office hurried over.
Leader Yuan ordered them to keep an eye on the scene and investigate the clues carefully.
The officers did not know the identity of the young leader Yuan.
However, since this matter was related to the authorities, they did not dare to be careless.
While asking people to cooperate, he sent someone back to Jingzhao Prefecture to report the matter.
Wen Yan and Ying Zhilin also mounted their horses and swaggered towards Tonghetang together.

After the two left.
In the alley across from them, two figures hid in the shadows: "I didn't expect two weak scholars to be so difficult to kill."
"Should we chase him and silence him?"
"You're crazy. They're walking down the street so brazenly, using themselves as bait to lure us out.
If we rush out now, we'll play into their hands."
"What should we do then? If we don't get our job done, the prince will definitely punish us severely when we return!"
"You keep an eye on their movements first. I will go back and report to the prince."
After that person finished speaking, he left quietly.
