"I...we didn't spread the rumor. It was the instructors at Loushan who told you that you were afraid of flooding in the west of the city due to heavy rain, so you wanted to go to Loushan to take shelter."
"The instructor also said that the teachers in the west of the city wanted to expel all the scholars who were not Loushan students from the mountain, and they had no way to do anything about it."
"Teacher, please say something."
The scholars were all anxious and shouting, their eyes fixed on the dozen or so instructors.
The instructor was also very panicked. He never expected that the two groups would confront each other, let alone face off.
I didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"Shouldn't the instructor explain in public why we came to Loushan?" Ye Qianning's ears moved slightly and he spoke in a calm voice.
"This... this... is a misunderstanding." The teacher would never admit it.
"Misunderstanding? If you weren't the instructor of Loushan, I would have thought you were a cunning villain from the market, so eloquent and flattering." Ye Qianning's voice was still very calm.
The instructor's forehead was covered with sweat, and he wondered why the dean hadn't come up yet.
He was thinking of a countermeasure in his mind, but before he could figure out how to resolve it, the elegant voice sounded again.
Ye Qianning took a few steps forward and stood in front of the scholars. "My master and the other gentlemen and priests have never thought of staying at Loushan before. We are here today because of Dean He's invitation. We really can't refuse, so we are doing it with reluctance. If we had known the situation at Loushan was like this, we would never have gone up the mountain even if Master He mocked us."
"That's right, there's no getting around it. The young lady even specifically asked Dean He several times if he had a place to stay, and Dean He swore he had already arranged it. Haha, is this what you call arranged? You drive people down the mountain and still blame us?"
"I've never seen such a shameless person in my entire life."
"Haha, I've learned a lot, and learned a lot more."
"The He family disciples are really good at manipulating public opinion. They direct and act it out themselves. You earn the good reputation, but the bad reputation is pinned on us."
"With such calculations, let's sue the He family as well."
"Sue, I must sue. I'm still alive, and if you slander me like this, I won't be able to close my eyes until I die."
After hearing what the literati said, the gentlemen became even more angry. The method was too disgusting.
The teacher hurriedly tried to calm him down: "Everyone, please be patient, please be patient."
"You guys are doing such disgusting things, and you still want people to be patient? Go away."
"Miss, let's go down the mountain."
The gentlemen paid no attention to them.
Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, the instructor was so frightened that he didn't know what to do.
The scholar was originally doubting whether it was true or not, but now seeing the instructor hesitating and unable to refute, he knew there was nothing he didn't understand.
Just now, a few instructors told them about their expressions when they asked them to go down the mountain. Now thinking about it, it really aroused their anger and led them to transfer their anger to Mr. Chen and the previous teachers in Loushan.
"I will investigate the He family's actions to the end." Ye Qianning turned his gaze to the flustered scholar and said, "No matter what the reason is, your rude words are true. I will investigate them to the end and send them all to the authorities."
The scholars were already panicked and terrified when they heard the whole story, and they became even more anxious when they heard that Ye Qianning still wanted to take them to see the officials.
"It was Instructor Lou Shan who said you were going to move in and drive us down the mountain. We were so angry that we said something without thinking. Now we know the reason and we know we misunderstood Master Chen and the other teachers. Please forgive us, young lady."
"We didn't do it on purpose. We were just misled by them. Please forgive us, young lady."
"The ones at fault are the He family disciples. Now that the truth is out, we can apologize to the gentlemen. Young lady, please don't escort us to the government office." (End of this chapter)
