Dragon Pattern Roll Set

Chapter 287 [Old Rules and Bad Habits]

Zhan Zhao took off the ghost-masked man's mask, and everyone leaned over to take a look, and they saw a man in his thirties. He looked, how should I put it, very ordinary, very ordinary, and he had never seen it before.

But Chunhua and Wang Qi jumped up and recognized the man.

"Know?" Zhan Zhao asked curiously.

"His name is Liu Shoukai, and he was expelled from the academy not long ago." Chunhua said.

"Expelled from the academy?" Zhao Pu looked the man up and down, and asked, "Still studying at the Imperial Academy at such an age?"

Chunhua whispered, "He's only 20 years old."

Zhao Pu raised his eyebrows.

Everyone also looked at the ghost-masked man again—how should I put it, he looks a bit old!In other words, his eyes are very mature, at least he looks much older than Tianzun...

Liu Shoukai didn't speak, and looked at the crowd with a frown. Although he couldn't move because of the acupuncture points, from his facial expression, he couldn't see the fear or the embarrassment of being recognized.

"Why was he expelled?" Zhan Zhao was curious, "What did he do that violated the regulations of Taixue?"

"No, I don't really blame him." Wang Qi whispered, "Because his father was corrupt and broke the law, he was demoted, so..."

Everyone frowned secretly. Taixue was indeed an official school at the beginning of its establishment, and only the offspring of officials above rank seven could participate.However, it was later relaxed. Outstanding students from all over the country can join even if no one in their family is an official.It is not uncommon for officials to be demoted to their heirs and expelled from Taixue.

Everyone looked at Liu Shoukai sympathetically.

Zhan Zhao unlocked his acupoints, and Liu Shoukai looked at everyone coldly.

"Who is that ghost-masked man?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Liu Shoukai didn't answer, but just sneered, looked at the imperial academic robes worn by Chunhua and Wang Qi, and said, "This dress is really disgusting."

Everyone frowned, the student gowns of Taixue are not only very beautiful in style and exquisite in materials, but also a symbol of honor!All the scholars are proud to wear the academic gown of Taixue, and even many adults teach their children in this way, to study hard, so that they can go to Taixue in the future and be glorious...

Liu Shoukai, as a former student of Taixue, even said that this suit was disgusting, which made everyone a little puzzled. Could it be that he was expelled because of dissatisfaction?

On the side, Bai Yutang glanced at Liu Shoukai, as if he had some doubts, but didn't say much.

Lord Bao ordered Liu Shoukai to be escorted back to Kaifeng Mansion, and he wanted to interrogate himself.

Everyone didn't delay any longer, and went back to Kaifeng mansion.

Bao Yan ran up curiously and asked Zhan Zhao, "Brother Zhan, have you tried the Yin Yang Palace?"

"I tried it." Zhan Zhao nodded, "It's just a lie."

"Yin Yang Palace?" Tianzun approached curiously, "What is it?"

Before Bai Yutang could answer, Chunhua and Wang Qi explained to Tianzun.

The two of them obviously admired the legendary martial arts supreme, and the appearance of Tianzun as an immortal may also fit the various fantasies of the two nerds about the world, so the two of them circled around Tianzun like two little sparrows , twittering non-stop.

Zhan Zhao saw that Bai Yutang remained silent, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

Bai Yutang looked at him and said, "Don't you think Liu Shoukai's kung fu is too good?"

"Not too good." Zhan Zhao said.

"I'm not just talking about kung fu. People in the Jianghu are not particularly well-prepared." Bai Yutang motioned Zhan Zhao to look at the students of the Taixue, "The studies of the Taixue are very heavy, and most of the time is spent on studying. Where there is still time to practice, Liu Shoukai's skills are more like those of Jianghu."

Zhan Zhao felt that this was indeed the case, touched his chin and pondered for a while, and asked Ouyang Chunhua, "How long has Liu Shoukai been fired?"

"Soon, about three months." As he said, Chunhua still frowned and said, "It's strange to say, how did this Liu Shoukai suddenly become so good at martial arts? I remember that I was almost half a fool with me, and I guess he is better than him point."

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly, and Ouyang Shaozheng interjected, "Can't even beat you? So useless?"

Chunhua's eyes narrowed, and he glanced at his uncle to express his dissatisfaction, "I'm the best at fighting in the entire Taixue!"

Ouyang pouted, "Blow."

"Really!" Chunhua was anxious.

"Really!" Wang Qi also testified for Chunhua.

Ouyang was surprised and teased him, "Then you are not a straw bag in the cotton pile?"

"You hate it!" Chunhua blushed with embarrassment.

Zhao Pu glared at Ouyang, "You too, why does such a big man always bully such a kid? It's very easy for a family of generals in your family to produce a Wenqu star."

"Exactly!" Chunhua moved behind Zhao Pu, making faces at Ouyang Shaozheng.

In fact, although Ouyang was teasing his nephew, he was quite afraid in his heart. If something bad happened to Chunhua just now, the family would be turned upside down.

Each of these little ones has a serious background, but the ghost-masked man even dared to move them. What is the purpose?

After a few people made such a fuss, the atmosphere became more relaxed. Seeing that Bai Yutang was still silent, Zhan Zhao asked, "You...is there something wrong?"

Bai Yutang slightly raised his eyebrows and shook his head.

Zhan Zhao narrowed his eyes and dragged him aside, "What are you hiding from me?"

Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao for a while, then sighed, "What if I say I agree with what Liu Shoukai said just now?"

Zhan Zhao was slightly taken aback, puzzled, "Which sentence?"

"Tai Xue's clothes are disgusting." Bai Yutang said.

Zhan Zhao gave a "poof" and patted Bai Yutang's shoulder, "I know you don't like grayish colors."

Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao.

Zhan Zhao teased Bai Yutang a few words, seeing that he still had no intention of laughing, he realized that he probably didn't really hate Taixue's dress, but rather something else.

Zhan Zhao walked slowly forward with him, and asked, "Why do you think that dress is disgusting?"

"Liu Shoukai's father is corrupt and perverts the law, murder and arson, what does that have to do with him?" Bai Yutang asked, "Why do you even want to fire him?"

Zhan Zhao nodded, "It is true that the rules make people helpless."

Bai Yutang continued walking without speaking.

"What else?" Zhan Zhao asked, "What else makes you hate Taixue?"

Bai Yutang froze for a moment, then looked at Zhan Zhao.

"Be good, tell me the truth." Zhan Zhao patted Bai Yutang's head, "You're just a straight-hearted person, whether you're happy or not is on your face."

Bai Yutang stared at Zhan Zhao for a long time, and said, "They all say I have facial paralysis."

Zhan Zhao made him amused, and squeezed his cheeks like coaxing a child, "Hey, you're not paralyzed, you don't know how rich your facial expressions are, it's because their eyes are bad."

Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao helplessly, and lost all anger at him.

Sighing, Bai Yutang said, "I used to have a friend who was also a scholar."

Zhan Zhao folded his arms and listened.

"His literary talent and insight are somewhat close to Gongsun's." Bai Yutang said.

"So powerful?" Zhan Zhao was surprised.

"When I met him, he was still very young, witty, funny, and ambitious. He had just been admitted to the Imperial College at that time, and he planned to show off his talents after he finished his studies. We made an appointment to drink in Kaifeng after a year." Bai Yutang said , "But a year later, what I saw was a procession for his funeral."

Zhan Zhao frowned, "Why? Did something happen to him?"

"I checked later, and it turned out that his grandfather's father, that is, his great-grandfather, had committed the crime of theft." Bai Yutang said, "His great-grandfather was within three generations of him, and because of his excellent grades and outstanding performance in the imperial school... …was rejected by his classmates. Several classmates checked all his relatives within three generations, and then reported on his grandfather. Then he was expelled, and there was a lawsuit for concealing his life experience, and his future was ruined Said, but also an adult laughingstock. Because of this incident, he was depressed and was expelled from drinking and getting drunk that night. When he was walking late at night, he accidentally fell into the river in Kaifeng and drowned. He was only 19 years old when he died."

Zhan Zhao frowned, looked at Bai Yutang, "So you hate Taixue?"

"I understand that as long as there is competition for fame and fortune in Jianghu, officialdom, military camps, and academies, there are some things that people don't like, but that suit." Bai Yutang said, looking at Wang Qi and Wang Qi who were dancing around in front of him. Chunhua's imperial robes, "can only be worn by the proud of heaven, but all the talent and hard work can be completely obliterated because of something that has nothing to do with him. The fairest is the most unfair, do you think evil is disgusting?"

After Zhan Zhao finished listening, he looked at Bai Yutang helplessly.

At this time, the White Mansion was not far ahead, Bai Yutang said to Zhan Zhao, "I'll go back to get some change of clothes, you go first, I'll catch up later."

"Oh..." Zhan Zhao nodded, watching Bai Yutang run into the Baifu, Tianzun followed him, and said while running, "Yutang, the wine buried in the yard for my master has been full for ten years." , shall we dig it out and drink it?"

Bai Yutang looked at him not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "You remember clearly."

Tianzun raised his eyebrows, "That is! Things are important and unimportant!"

Bai Yutang had no choice but to ask Bai Fu to help Tianzun dig wine, his tone was relaxed, and he didn't seem to be unhappy, what happened just now was just passing through.

Everyone in Kaifeng Mansion continued to walk back. Zhan Zhao walked at the end of the line. As he walked, he looked back at Bai Mansion who was getting farther and farther behind him, frowning slightly - Bai Yutang really didn't like officialdom. Apart from studying, I probably don't like Kaifeng very much, after all, this is the imperial city.

"Exhibition Guard."

When Zhan Zhao heard someone calling him, he raised his head and saw that it was Bao Zheng.

Mr. Bao said, "The Eighth Prince is going back to the mansion, but Duo Luo has been sent to do other things, you can send the Prince to see him off."

"Oh, good." Zhan Zhao nodded, and accompanied the Eighth Prince to turn a corner, go another way, and go back to the palace.

Zhan Zhao and the Eighth Prince walked side by side, thinking about something while walking.

In fact, the Eighth Prince overheard the conversation between Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang just now. Seeing that Zhan Zhao was absent-minded, he knew what Bai Yutang said, and Zhan Zhao might have lost his mind.The so-called concern leads to chaos, and those who care too much will naturally think too much.

The Eighth Prince smiled faintly, and chatted with Zhan Zhao, "Young Xia Bai seems to like Kaifeng very much."

Zhan Zhao blinked and looked at the Eighth Prince, "Does he look like he likes Kaifeng?"

"Yes." The Eighth Prince nodded, "He has lived here for a long time, and I haven't seen him return to the empty island."

Zhan Zhao thought for a while, "Hmm..."

"There must be someone or something in Kaifeng Mansion that he likes very much." The Eighth Prince said with a smile.

Zhan Zhao became more and more sad - yes, yes, it was all the fault of Master Cat, who trapped the romantic Bai Wuye in Kaifeng.

"However, Kaifeng is indeed a good place." The Eighth Prince patted Zhan Zhao's shoulder lightly.

Zhan Zhao looked at the Eighth Prince.

"Some things can't be done in Jianghu, but in Kaifeng, they can be solved."

At this time, the Eighth Prince had already arrived at the gate of the palace, and the Eighth Prince smiled and said to Zhan Zhao, "Tomorrow, I will propose to the emperor to abolish the outdated rules and bad habits of the Imperial Academy. Dethroning, this is the most appropriate time."

Zhan Zhao was taken aback.

After the Eighth Prince finished speaking, he smiled and waved goodbye to Zhan Zhao, "Let's go back earlier."

Zhan Zhao nodded foolishly, watched the Eighth Prince enter the palace, and suddenly understood——Bai Yutang is not a cynical person, and his emotional state just now was indeed a little abnormal. The same thing, he meant to tell the Eighth Prince!The purpose is to take this opportunity to let the Eighth Prince tell Zhao Zhen to get rid of those unreasonable stereotypes.

Zhan Zhao looked at the sky, that cunning mouse!However, Guard Zhan was obviously in a better mood. He turned around and walked back, thinking that when he passed by the Bai Mansion, he would go in and take a look to see if Bai Yutang had left. .

Zhan Zhao ran forward for a while, then suddenly stopped and stood on the quiet street of Kaifeng in the dead of night.

The wind at night rolled the dead leaves on the ground, making a slight sound, and the thin mist made the deserted streets even more deserted...

After Zhan Zhao stood still, he turned his face slightly, and from the corner of his eyes, he glanced at the street behind him.

After a while, Zhan Zhao said, "Are you looking for me to surrender yourself?"

As soon as Zhan Zhao's voice fell, he saw a person slowly walking out of a dark alley on the side of the long street behind him. His white ghostly face was especially glaring in the night.
