"Qu Xing, I'll give you one more chance to reorganize your words! Speak to me properly!
The imperial physician has confirmed that Xu Xiaoyi has lost his memory, so why do you insist that he doesn't? "Lin Tianlong was furious, seething with rage.
Qu Xing actually told him that everything in the letter was true. How could that be possible? Could it be that a dandy, just by leaving the palace, could be reborn as a phoenix? A genius? Pah! Even a dog can't stop eating shit. Do you think I'd believe that?
"Your Majesty, I, Qu Xing, am not lying. I am willing to use my life as a guarantee to prove that the contents of the letter are indeed true. Xu Xiaoyi is a genius and he has not lost his memory at all."
"Your Majesty, you see, I told you that there was no problem with my secret guards, but you just didn't believe it!" Xu Cangguo said tactfully, but his face was full of smugness.
When Lin Tianlong turned around and saw Xu Cangguo's disgusting and smug face, he became furious and his anger became uncontrollable.
"Alright! Alright! You said that dude is a genius and hasn't lost his memory yet, right? Qu Xing, if you don't explain yourself today, I'll immediately exile you to the frontier!"
After hearing Lin Tianlong's angry words, Qu Xing didn't show any panic, but became more confident because he was absolutely sure! He had a lot of evidence to prove that Xu Xiaoyi was a genius and pretending to have amnesia.
"Yes! I will now begin to prove that when I arrived in Xiqing County that day, I indeed saw Xu Xiaoyi secretly raising private soldiers and distributing weapons for them to train!"
"What! He really dares to raise an army? Is he afraid that he won't live long enough?" Lin Tianlong slammed the table and said angrily:
"Qu Xing! Keep talking."
"Yes! The first time I saw Xu Xiaoyi, I realized something was wrong! His face no longer had the extravagant look of a playboy, but instead revealed an extremely determined look.
And he became the county magistrate of Xiqing County only after the group of villagers knelt down and begged him collectively. Why did they beg Xu Xiaoyi to be the county magistrate? After I inquired about the information, I found out that it was because when he just arrived in Xiqing County, he defeated the local bully. If it was the Xu Xiaoyi of the past, he would definitely not dare to take action. This is why I suspect that he has not lost his memory. Everything he did before was a disguise!
After defeating the local bullies, he got a large amount of food from somewhere, and it was fine rice. After distributing it to the group of farmers, they followed Xu Xiaoyi even more wholeheartedly.
Afterwards, he prayed for rain, spoke with the heavens, and withstood the thunderbolts with his body, causing rain to fall again in Xiqing County, ending the drought.
"Hmm? You said he can even talk to the heavens? And what do you mean by his true face?"
"Your Majesty! My judgment is imperfect. Those villagers didn't lie. Of course, talking to the heavens might have been a trick played by Xu Xiaoyi, but praying for rain and enduring lightning strikes are real. I saw traces of lightning strikes.
The actions and courage Xu Xiaoyi displayed after becoming county magistrate were definitely not the whim of a playboy! When a family in Xiqing County was ruthlessly murdered by bandits, he was furious and immediately launched a revenge attack. I saw with my own eyes how he used a strange bow and a bunch of strange arrows he had pulled out of nowhere to randomly fire arrows from a distance of 500 meters, destroying the bandit's stronghold to pieces.
"Stop! Qu Xing! I'll ignore the matter of carrying the thunder, but why did the arrow you shot blow up the mountain stronghold? Are you sure you're right?"
"Your Majesty, Xu Xiaoyi can shoot arrows that explode and chase people. I saw it with my own eyes. It's a fact!"
Seeing Qu Xing so determined, Lin Tianlong rubbed his brows, finding it hard to accept this.
"Go on, why is Xu Xiaoyi a genius and how did he disguise himself?"
"Yes! From the first day I followed Xu Xiaoyi, he immediately revealed my existence and even said my name. At that time, not even the Duke's secret guards could find me! He was able to name me so confidently, he must have known that we were keeping an eye on him."
"What? He knows your identity?" Lin Tianlong was shocked. Qu Xing changed his name after joining the Tian Anwei. The Tian Anwei's information was very confidential. How could Xu Xiaoyi know it? He turned to the people around Qu Xing and asked:
"Xu Cangguo! Were you the one who leaked the information to Xu Xiaoyi?"
"Your Majesty! That's absolutely impossible! I only just learned about Qu Xing's existence that day! How did that rebellious son know about this? I have no idea! You can't possibly not trust me, right?"
When Lin Tianlong saw Xu Cangguo's panicked expression, he no longer doubted him. Xu Cangguo was not someone who could do such a thing. He would not betray me.
"Your Majesty, so I think Xu Xiaoyi is hiding his incompetence and pretending to have lost his memory, taking this opportunity to escape from the palace."
After saying this, Qu Xing took out a book from his arms. The book was Xu Xiaoyi's "Three Hundred Tang Poems".
"I stole this book from Xu Xiaoyi. I sent people from the academy to investigate! After strictly checking Dagan's books, I found that these are all original works, and I am sure! The poems above were all written by Xu Xiaoyi." Qu Xing stood up and handed the "Three Hundred Tang Poems" to the emperor.
After hearing Qu Xing's words, Lin Tianlong took the book in confusion, thinking to himself that since it was a poem written by him, it would probably be a collection of gibberish and obscure vernacular poems.
However, the "Three Hundred Tang Poems" given by the system does not include the names of famous authors, but only the titles and lyrics of poems.
When Lin Tianlong got the book, he randomly opened a page and took a closer look. The handwriting was simply perfect, strong and neat. He was even more shocked when he saw the poems in the book. He couldn't help but read them out loud.
