can go to the warehouse and pick one yourself in a while.”Having said that, she shook the list in her hand.To make a grand entrance, she spared no expense.Some rare fruits that are not often eaten at...Sent to the Discipline Hall!

Five simple words immediately ignited the gossip fire among several students.

"Jiaren, don't beat around the bush, just tell me, what's going on"

"Yeah, what did those two guys do wrong"

Were they beaten With boards, or whips Did they wail like ghosts and howl like wolves

They were talking excitedly, and the other students also came over.

Everyone wants to ask him a few more questions because it's said that Jiaren has the definite information here.

To tell the truth, it was Wang Sheng and Liu Kui's poor interpersonal skills that led to this. There were almost no one in their dormitory who befriended them.

Now they are unlucky, with no concern, but instead, each one is excited.

Jia Ren cannot speak carelessly, lest he ruin the elders' arrangements.

So, he clamped his lips shut, not uttering a single word.

Fortunately, a patrolling officer heard the commotion and came over, reprimanding them severely, only then did the dormitory quiet down...

Li's small courtyard outside the academy was bustling with activity tonight because Li Zhensheng, Li Laoer, and Mr. Wen were staying over.

Jia Yin quietly took out a jade cucumber, still chilled with a refreshing coolness.

Li Zhensheng and a few others, having just had a few drinks, were now sitting under the eaves, enjoying the night breeze. With a couple more bites of the cool, sweet jade melon, they were completely sobered up.

Old Li held her granddaughter, rocking a fan to shoo away mosquitoes, and inquired carefully about what had happened before.

It's said that two students have confessed and even came up with many ways to harm the Li family, but they haven't found an opportunity to carry it out. She really doesn't know what to say.

After a long silence, Old Lady Li sighed and said, "A child of ten or so years old, how could they be so bold and have such vicious thoughts!"

Li La Er consoled, “Mother, don't get angry with these people. It's not worth it. Since they did something wrong, they should be punished. In the future, they won't be able to study or take the imperial examinations. They will probably only regret it then!”

Li Zhensheng also said: "Wang Shenghe and Liu Kui must have been instigated by someone behind the scenes. Liu Kui's family is only a relative of the Yan family, and the Yan family has also left Xindu. They have no backing and are just ordinary merchants. It is possible that some people from the Wang family are still holding grudges."

Mr. Wen nodded and said, "This time, the two young fellows have their lips sealed tight. We can't force them in front of the dean, but there will be more opportunities in the future..."

Jia Yin rubbed the little fox's head, agreeing with her uncle's words in her heart.

If the two students were being manipulated, it's very likely the Wang family was behind it.

However, the two students entered Luo'an Academy before Wang Laoda returned to Beijing. So, this person behind it might be Wang Lao San.

But Wang Laosan is already crazy!

Could it be that someone was using his name to continue harming the Li family Their plan might have been, in case of exposure, to blame everything on Wang Laosan. Then no one could hold them accountable

Perhaps having eaten too much in the evening, after just pondering for a while, Jiayin yawned.

Li Lao Ta saw this and simply said a few words, then urged everyone to go rest.

The second day, when the sun was high in the sky, someone from the academy came to deliver a message.

Mr. Wen took special leave and didn't return to the city. He accompanied the three Li brothers and went to the academy together.

Jia Yin nagged her grandmother to take her to see the commotion. Li Lao Tai was also thinking about it, so she hurried to the canteen, wanting to find out the news conveniently.

To everyone's surprise, the director chose to hold the meeting in the dining hall.

It's probably to make it convenient for students to have a meal after the meeting.

After all, we still have to continue classes after dinner!

Lady Li was a first-rank誥命, and Jia Yin was a county princess. Even if they didn't intend to use their status to intimidate others, at such times, as long as they showed their faces, the headmaster and others would all have to bow...

So, as soon as the grandfather and grandson arrived at the dining hall, they were ushered into a private room by Zhao Yuru and Tao Hongying.

Inside the room, there were two buckets of ice, a pot of fruit drink, and a plate of snacks.

Tao Hongying pressed her voice down and said, "Mother refuses to come, I still have to go back and invite her. Unexpectedly, the gentlemen are having a meeting here! Mother, you bring Jiayin and sit here first. We'll also eat lunch with Jiaren and the others in this room."

Li Laotai nodded and shooed them away, "Let's see the situation at noon. We're all family, don't worry about us. Jia Yin and I are right here in this room. If anything happens, just have Shui Ling find you."

Grandma He and Shui Ling Shui Yun also quickly nodded their heads. Grandma He reassured them, "Rest assured, Third Madam and Fourth Madam, we'll take care of everything here."

Zhao Yuru and Tao Hongying then went to the kitchen.

Today, in addition to being busy preparing lunch for the students, they also have to arrange tea and snacks for the dean and gentlemen.

Soon, hundreds of students gathered, each with excited and curious faces, wondering what had happened at the academy.

But they wouldn't be left to guess for long. Dean Zhou brought in several gentlemen, leading Li Zhensheng and his three brothers, along with Wen Yushi, into the room.

They had not sat down for long when Dean Zhou's chief attendant brought in three more people.

Jia Yin was leaning against the doorway of the room, holding a small fox and watching the commotion. Upon closer inspection, she realized that one of the three people was actually someone she knew.

This acquaintance was none other than Li Yong's brother-in-law, Zhou, the very same person who had helped design the Hot Spring Valley back then.

She quickly told her grandmother, who also came to the doorway, and asked in confusion: "Why is Zhou here"

Similarly, Zhou strode into the dining hall and upon seeing hundreds of students thronging the place, he frowned.

The Liu family found him in the morning and said that their child had made a mistake at the academy, and asked him to go with them to help plead for leniency.

He didn't think much of it, and just came over.

After all, when his father-in-law's family moved away, they entrusted him to patronize Liu's family.

The Liu family was simple, with only the husband and wife running a shop in town. Their son was studying at an academy.

When they frequently interacted and went about their daily lives, the Liu couple spoke and acted appropriately. He then agreed to it.

But now it seems, today's events are not as simple as he thought...

When he saw the three Li brothers and Wen Yushi again, he was even more surprised. His heart sank suddenly.

He quickly stepped forward and bowed, "Master Li, Mr. Li, Third Master Li, and even Wen Shilang, what are you all doing here"

The Li family treated Li Yong like their own, and Zhou Da ren was Li Yong's brother-in-law. He had also helped them a lot when they first moved to the new village.

Li Zhensheng's three brothers looked at each other, none of them wanting Zhou Ren to get involved.

As for Wen Yu Shi, he was already good friends with Zhou Da Ren. Otherwise, he wouldn't have directly invited Zhou Da Ren to Sui Jin Tan to help design the renovation drawings for the mountain valley.

The four of them instantly understood each other. Li La Er stepped forward and, directly to the point, asked, "Zhou Da Ren, who are you here for today, Liu Kui or Wang Sheng"

"Liu Kui," Zhou quickly said, "The Liu family are in-laws with the Yan family. Back when the Yan family left, they entrusted me and my wife to take care of them."

Li Lao'er nodded and said, "Liu Kui designed to frame Jia Ren for cheating on the exam, was exposed, and will be dismissed today. There is no room for discussion, Zhou sir, you should go back!"

Zhou Da Ren was taken aback, then his face changed abruptly. He glared fiercely at Liu Kui's father, and then bowed deeply to Li Jia's people, "Li Bo Ye, I am truly sorry today. I will definitely visit you another day to apologize."

"Zhou, you don't have to be like this. An uninformed person is not guilty." Li Laoer gave a feigned support.

Master Zhou rose to his feet and, after bidding farewell to Doctor Zhou and the others, turned and walked away without a moment's hesitation.herwise such incidents will continue to occur.Even if the Li family doesn't want to get involved, they're likely to be dragged in eventually."Sister-in-law, it's been a long time since you've visited...
