Chapter 111: Checkmate
"What's going on?!" He said in a deep voice, his sharp eyes shot towards Sun Ziyu and the others.
Being stared at by Zou Xuejiu, Wang Jingyu was a little flustered, "No, no... Zou Xuejiu! This girl is lying! It was obviously her who tripped Brother Sun, so we..."
Ying Jinyi sneered, "Let me ask you, why did the fourth sister lie? Could it be to frame you? But she is just a little girl who is just over one year old. She didn't even know you before coming to the academy. Why would she risk getting hurt to frame you?"
"What's the point of blaming you? Just so you can denounce her here? And don't you use your brains when you lie? How can Sun Ziyu, a big person, be tripped by a child? Is his leg lame or is his eye blind? Can't he see it?"
Lin Baoer silently gave Ying Jinyi a thumbs up in her heart.
He is worthy of being her mouthpiece!
These sarcastic remarks made Sun Ziyu and the others' faces dark and their eyes burned with anger.
"Who knows if Lin Ruqian didn't win the fight yesterday, so he asked his sister to come..."
Wang Jingyu was glared at by Sun Ziyu before he finished his angry words.
Even Jie Tai quickly covered his mouth and glared at him desperately.
They had kept the beating of Lin Ruqian a secret from Zou Xuejiu! Zou Xuejiu did not allow students to fight in the academy without permission. If they were discovered, it would not be as simple as being punished by copying books!
Wang Jingyu also reacted belatedly, his neck shrank, and his eyes became guilty.
But it was too late.
"What's the fight about?" Zou Xuejiu stared at them with a gloomy face, and his voice was intimidating without anger.
This time he really couldn't hide it.
Sun Ziyu pursed his lips and said nothing, his face looked ugly.
Wang Jingyu was too guilty to speak.
Jie Tai stammered, not knowing whether he should say it or not.
The other two did not dare to look at Zou Xuejiu, and they were so scared that they didn't even dare to raise their heads.
"Lin Ruqian, you tell me." Zou Xuejiu looked at Lin Ruqian and narrowed his eyes.
Lin Ruqian gave a bitter smile and told him the whole story of what happened yesterday.
"So you insulted Wei Zhitian first, and then Lin Ruqian defended her and was beaten by you, right?" Zou Xuejiu glared at them. "
It's obvious that Lin Ruqian also took action!" Wang Jingyu was dissatisfied.
Lin Ruqian didn't say anything, but comforted Lin Baoer.
He didn't exaggerate what happened to Sun Ziyu and the others, and naturally didn't hide the fact that he also took action.
"Okay, okay! Very good!"
Zou Xuejiu was so angry that he laughed, "Fighting without authorization, violating the school discipline, one person will be beaten with ten boards!"
[Wow! So cruel? ! ]
"Zou Xuejiu!" Wang Jingyu couldn't believe it.
The ten great blows will keep them from getting out of bed for the whole day!
Even Sun Ziyu's expression changed, "Mr. Zou, isn't the ten great blows too much?"
Mr. Zou paused and glanced at him coldly, "You don't need the ten great blows."
Hearing this, Sun Ziyu's expression slightly eased.
Lin Baoer's eyes widened in disbelief.
[No way?! This Mr. Zou is also in the same group with them?!]
"You slandered your fellow disciples, and you violated the academy discipline. Twenty great blows!"
After he finished speaking, he turned away and left without caring about them anymore.
"Go and receive your punishment!"
"Xuejiu Zou! Xuejiu Zou!"
Wang Jingyu chased after him with tears in his eyes, and kept making excuses, "Xuejiu Zou, this is not entirely our fault, Xuejiu Zou..."
...
"Lin Ruqian, you hurt the enemy by a thousand and your own by eight hundred. Is it worth it?" Sun Ziyu stared at Lin Ruqian viciously with a sinister look in his eyes.
Lin Ruqian glared back coldly and sneered, "This is the fact, isn't it?"
"Why, didn't you think you would be discovered before you took action?"
Ying Jinyi was even more disdainful, "Sun Ziyu, I haven't bullied children since I was three years old. Haven't you been weaned yet? You are so grown up, and you actually slander a child."
"If I were you, I would be ashamed!"
"I didn't expect the Sun family's tutoring to be like this. If I were you, I would hurry to the Lin family to apologize, so as not to tarnish the reputation of the Sun family..."
They kept talking back and forth, making Sun Ziyu speechless. His face turned red, and he roared, "You and I know exactly what's going on with this!"
[Who knows exactly what you know. 】
Lin Baoer muttered in her heart, and deliberately raised her head from Lin Ruqian's arms and stuck out her tongue at him.
Sun Ziyu became even angrier when he saw this, and pointed at them with a trembling finger, "Just you wait! If you don't take revenge, you are not a gentleman!"
"Let's go!"
Xie Tai hesitated, "Brother Sun, just now Zou Xuejiu told us to go and receive the punishment ourselves. If we don't go..." "
Then let's go!" Sun Ziyu glared at him fiercely, and left the Disciple Hall angrily without even waving his folding fan.
After they left, the Disciple Hall became much quieter.
"Brother Ruqian, then don't you want it too..." Ying Jinyi hesitated.
Lin Ruqian touched Lin Baoer's head and shook his head, "It's nothing, just ten big strokes, it's nothing to me."
"But after I leave, Jinyi, Baoer will be in your care."
"Of course!" Ying Jinyi quickly hugged Lin Baoer and patted his chest, "I'm here! No one can bully her!"
Lin Ruqian nodded with relief.
After he left, Ying Jinyi took Lin Baoer to find a seat and sat down.
Several people did not come back in the first class, and they did not see Wang Jingyu and others until after the third class. Everyone
's hands were red and swollen, and a closer look showed that the tears on their faces had not dried yet.
At this time, Lin Ruqian also came back.
"Why don't you see Sun Ziyu?" Ying Jinyi asked quietly.
Lin Ruqian shook his hands and hissed, "He went back."
Ying Jinyi curled his lips upon hearing
this and did not ask any more questions. Only Sun Ziyu was bold enough to go back without permission.
Without Sun Ziyu to support Wang Jingyu and the others, the group of people became much more low-key. Not only did they take detours when they saw them, they also often avoided them.
This made Ying Jinyi, who originally wanted to vent her anger on them, feel bored.
In her words, these people are just cowards.
The whole day's classes ended quickly, and Lin Baoer was drowsy from listening.
She felt that she had been deceived by Shen Xuelan. Except for the little episode in the morning, which was a bit interesting, the rest was so boring that it couldn't be more boring.
The Four Books and Five Classics, astronomy and geography, all made her feel overwhelmed.
"Fourth sister, I'll tell you, studying is not as fun as hunting in the mountains." After leaving An Ning Academy, the three of them walked on the road. Ying Jinyi pouted and complained, "My dad always asks me to go to the academy, I'm so annoyed!"
"Then why did you come today?" Lin Baoer was holding a string of candied haws in her hand, curious.
Ying Jinyi sighed, her face wrinkled, "It's because my dad threatened me! He said that if I didn't go, he would take apart my favorite sword!"
"He always does what he says, I dare not bet."
