Husband, please lend me your virtues

As the man, Jian Tianlei, finished his question, the discussion in the entire lobby disappeared. In an instant, the entire lobby was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard clearly.

"Although it's irrelevant, what the princess did was really too arrogant. She doesn't take any man in the world seriously." A man in white shirt stood up to deal with Jian Tianlei.

"That's right! Princess Changning despises men and would rather use Dalin's heroes as a shield than to get married properly."

"Rumor has it that Princess Changning admires General Wen, but her motive for marrying him is not pure. My two brothers, you may not know that Princess Changning does not despise men."

A student in a blue shirt stood up proudly and corrected the first two students who spoke, saying that their information was already out of date. Those who came from outside were from outside and their information was not as well-informed as that of the locals.

"On the contrary, Princess Changning is too obsessed with men. After marrying General Wen's tablet, she wants to follow the example of Princess Huaiyang of the previous dynasty and keep a man with red lips and white teeth in the name of retainers in the princess's mansion."

The man in white was stubborn. “Even if Princess Changning had never said those words that disdained men, she shouldn’t have used the name of General Wen’s wife to satisfy her own selfish desires and tarnish General Wen’s reputation.”

"Brother, you are right. Princess Changning's behavior seriously insults the God of War of Dalin. Although we are insignificant, we cannot ignore it."

"Yes, we must not let General Wen be associated with the name of a dissolute woman like Princess Changning in the future."

"Everyone, although we are insignificant, we have united and are petitioning outside the palace.

I request that Your Majesty issue an order to revoke the imperial decree granting marriage to General Wen and Princess Changning, and restore General Wen's good name!"

"Then no matter how much Princess Changning wants to be promiscuous and how many men she takes into her mansion, it won't hinder General Wen. General Wen is still a clean man."

"Correct!"

"Brother, you are very righteous!"

……

"This brother is absolutely right!"

"I wonder if there is any brother who is willing to host this event and organize everyone to go to the palace to petition together."

The man in black who was hiding among the students covered his mouth and shouted in different voices while changing his position.

Jian Tianlei felt that these people's brains had been damaged by reading so much that they could not distinguish between truth and falsehood. "Just based on the words of one person, you are so angry that you even want to petition outside the palace."

"Do you know what kind of person Princess Changning is? But how many of you have seen Princess Changning say these words?"

"Never."

"I don't know, never."

"To be honest, we all heard this from hearsay."

After some of the shy students admitted it, they blushed and lowered their heads, embarrassed to look at Jian Tianlei.

"You don't even know the facts clearly, but you are so anxious to run to the outside of the palace to petition. Aren't you afraid that His Majesty will charge you with a crime of disrespect and throw you all into prison?"

"Don't even think about passing the imperial examinations and returning home in glory. I'm afraid you won't even be able to see your family again."

The man in green shirt stood up and pointed at Jian Tianlei's nose and said, "Nonsense! Your Majesty has always treated students who are taking the imperial examinations with courtesy, so how could he punish us for such a small matter!"

"Trivia? Criticizing the royal princess, going to the palace to petition for something that was not wrong without any reason, these are all trivial matters?"

"The last person who offended the royal family was exiled to the frontier. Do you want to follow in his footsteps?"

Bringing up the issue of future, no one in the hall dared to refute Jian Tianlei. The white-shirted student who first spoke to Jian Tianlei and recounted Princess Changning's crimes turned out to be the fastest to turn against him.

"This brother is right to warn me! I drank a little wine today and was not sober. I offended Princess Changning. I shouldn't have listened to her."

The man in black shirt saw that public opinion was about to benefit Princess Changning, so he stopped hiding and stood up, "This brother is really cowardly. There is no smoke without fire. If Princess Changning didn't have this intention, how could the news spread from the palace to the people?"

"She clearly has bad intentions and is attracted to men, but she wants to take advantage of General Wen's wife. Her infatuation with General Wen is fake, and her real intention is to use General Wen's good reputation to take a male concubine for herself."

"We should unite and implore His Majesty to cancel the engagement between Princess Changning and General Wen, so that General Wen can have peace and quiet!"

"If General Wen were still alive, he would definitely ask for permission to cancel his marriage with Princess Changning."

"How come this general doesn't know that I want to cancel my engagement with Princess Changning?"

A man in black riding a horse passed by the crowd from behind and said this nonchalantly.

"Princess Changning is infatuated with this general, why do you speak so foully of her?"

"It is Wen Shao's great honor to be able to marry Princess Changning. You should all just focus on preparing for the Spring Examination. I may invite you to have a drink at the wedding banquet between the general and the princess."

As soon as Wen Shao finished speaking, the people around him were extremely excited. It turned out that the young general Wen Shao was not killed in the battle, but returned to the capital safely!

Seeing how Wen Shao defended Princess Changning, they were certain that all this was a conspiracy by the literati to slander the military generals. They stopped being quiet listeners and followed Wen Shao's wishes to argue with the students.

Zhuang Zijin, who had already reserved a seat in a private room on the second floor, almost spit out his tea when he saw the man on the majestic horse who claimed to be Wen Shao.

Wen Shao? Did he return to the capital alive?

This incident is not mentioned in the play.

Does this represent everything in the play? As long as she continues to work hard to destroy the Qian family's schemes, she can make this play a fabricated play rather than a play adapted from real history?

Jian Tianlei saw that things were beyond his expectations, and he glanced behind the screen where Zhuang Zijin was. General Wen was back alive, so should he continue to do what the princess had instructed him to do?

Zhuang Zijin saw that Jian Tianlei's eyes kept drifting towards her from time to time and he didn't take any action for a long time, as if he was frightened by Wen Shao's sudden appearance. She called Dan Qiao, who was following her, over, gave her a few instructions, and let Dan Qiao go.

After hearing Dan Qiao's message, Jian Tianlei put his mind at ease and, according to the original plan, attacked the man in black who had been adding fuel to the fire.

Jian Tianlei walked to the front of the man in black and bowed. "May I know your name? Where is your hometown? Judging from your attire, you should be a student preparing for the imperial examination.

I have noticed that you are quite good at ventriloquism. Just now, you changed your voice in the crowd, which is really suspicious."

All of a sudden, the people in the lobby and outside all turned their eyes to the man in black. Seeing that the situation was not good, the man in black wanted to escape, but Jian Tianlei grabbed his arm.
