Chapter 88: The Capital's Bully Becomes the Number One Scholar
The students of Qingyun Academy stopped obediently, and the guards brought back the rumormongers.

Xia Yunheng saw that the man was Lu Jie's lackey, so he rushed forward angrily and slapped him in the face, "I'll beat you to death, you bastard, for spreading rumors..."

Lu Jie, who was protected by the students of the Imperial College, poked his head out and said, "Prince Yunheng, don't be so arrogant. Everyone remembers the good things Gu Jiajing has done. The top scholar has done wrong and is unworthy of his position!"

Shameless villain, Gu Jiajing was so angry that he almost bit his teeth. As the number one scholar, he had to restrain his words and actions, otherwise he would beat Lu Jie so hard that his parents would not recognize him.

Gongye Zhiqian stood up and said, "What do you mean by robbing a woman? That was done by you, Lu Jie. Don't try to pass the buck here. Brother Gu is the top scholar appointed by His Majesty. You, a scholar, are slandering His Majesty by making up stories and implying that His Majesty is short-sighted and doesn't know how to judge people."

"You, Lu Jie, are a traitor!"

Su Youli: "My former classmates from the Imperial College, this kind of person is worthy of your protection. Do you want to punish him together with me?"

Lu Jie was choked up by what he said and quietly hid himself behind his classmates.

With such a serious crime being charged against him and his personal future at stake, no student in the Imperial College dared to protect him and they all dispersed back to the academy.

"Hey~"

Lu Jie followed in a panic, not daring to stay for a moment longer, as the Imperial College was the only refuge.

Great job! The students of Qingyun Academy are all great!
Song Yanjin returned the cymbals in his hand to the honor guard and said, "Don't argue with people with red eyes. Yun Heng, release the man and let him go through the streets in style."

Following the advice of his eldest cousin, Xia Yunheng decided not to delay the trip and raised his hand to signal the guards to release the person.

In the attic of the Imperial College, Yang Jijiu frowned. It only took one Lu Jie to stir up a dispute between the two academies. This man had evil intentions. If it weren't for the support of the Queen, he would have been thrown out of the academy long ago.

Yang Jijiu looked back at Shi Jiancheng behind him with a cold brow, "Lu Jie is your student. I don't need to explain the truth that the mouth can cause trouble. If you don't keep a good eye on him, the academy can't afford such a student."

"Yes Yes Yes……"

Shi Jiancheng clasped his fists and responded repeatedly.

With the beating of gongs and drums and the setting off of firecrackers in front, the parade of the top scholar officially began.

The students of Qingyun Academy supported their brothers and followed them all the way.

Looking at the team going away, Song Yanjin was filled with emotion. The first batch of students were all troublemakers, but they were reformed in half a year, and now they have become the top scorer... Only he knows the hardships involved.

Su Lao, who was standing next to him, sighed heavily, "Thank you for your hard work, Principal Song!"

Song Yanjin came back to his senses and bowed to Mr. Su, "Mr. Su has worked hard too."

"It's not hard, it's hard life, who is still a teacher at this age?"

Song Yanjin was amused. Mr. Su was always humming to her that he was tired.

We have to give him a holiday quickly, Song Yanjin said slowly, "The palace examination class is over, and it will be two years before it reopens. Mr. Su, please take a break for a while and relax. You can come back anytime depending on your mood."

Su Lao happily agreed and was already planning his schedule. He would go home for a while, then visit his friends in Lin'an, and then travel to the misty Jiangnan...

"I also want!"

"We have so many teachers in the intensive teaching class. If we arrange the classes reasonably, we can still have some holidays."

Mr. Ge actively sought a vacation for himself.

Master Bai hit him rudely, "I've seen thick-skinned people, but I've never seen anyone thicker than a city wall."

"Yes."

Several teachers walked back together jokingly.

In fact, the light that Master Ge has fought for will shine on them sooner or later, but with a high salary, a few easy classes every day, and delicious meals in the cafeteria, they always feel guilty towards Principal Song, so I would like to remind Master Ge not to eat in such an ugly manner.

Song Yanjin knew what everyone was thinking, so he said in advance that there would be a two-month long holiday on both the summer solstice and the winter solstice.

As soon as these words were spoken, Master Ge jumped up happily and said, "What do you think, Lao Bai? I said that Principal Song is the most loyal." We also had a long holiday last year, and I thought it was only available during the winter solstice.

Master Bai was immersed in joy and didn't hear what he said at all. He was silently calculating where to go with his wife and children during the June holiday...

The number one scholar paraded through the streets, and the balconies of teahouses and the doors of taverns were filled with people, all wanting to catch a glimpse of him.

The gongs and drums were blaring, the firecrackers were popping, and the children cheered and jumped forward, "Here they come~ Here they come~"

After seeing who the number one scholar was, they all looked at each other for a while, but under the lively atmosphere, they still applauded and welcomed him. After all, he was a future pillar of the court, and who knows, he might even come to see someone for help one day.

"Hey, who is the handsome scholar behind? The pink flower on his hat makes him look prettier than the flower. In my opinion, he is even more handsome than the champion."

The girl in green was so shy that she covered her face with a fan. "I think so too."

After all, the top scholar had a very bad reputation in the past.

"Tanhua Lang, I call you!"

He threw the sachet in his hand at people.

A bunch of girls on the high-rise building boldly expressed their love to Ye Shiran...

Ye Shiran had never seen such a scene before. His face turned red instantly and he rode his horse past his brother Gu Jiajing and quickly fled the scene.

"Hahaha……"

Xia Yunheng and his brothers laughed mercilessly.

Gu Jiajing also couldn't stop smiling.

"Look, there's actually a girl who got second place. That's incredible!"

"Yes, after Gu Jiaxing, a daughter of the Gu family, won the title of martial arts champion ten years ago, many years have passed and no women have been seen in the civil and martial arts subjects."

"They all have the surname Gu..."

The middle-aged uncle seemed to have remembered something and exclaimed in admiration, "Incredible, the first daughter of the Gu family won the first place in martial arts, and the second son of the Gu family won the first place in liberal arts. How did Lord Gu have children? How come they are so promising?"

"Hahaha, just go ahead and envy me."

A student standing next to the uncle shook his head, "That's not true. Who in the capital doesn't know about the virtues of the No. 1 scholar? In my opinion, the teacher of Qingyun Academy is still the best. The No. 1, No. 2, No. 3 and more than 50 students all passed the imperial examinations. Tsk tsk..."

"Brother, where is the Qingyun Academy you mentioned? I will bring my son to visit it someday."

I hope my son can become a successful person. I still hope my son can have a bright future.

The student choked on his own saliva, "Uncle, you can't just enter Qingyun Academy if you want to. You need to pass the entrance exam before you can go to school."

The uncle had an idea in mind, but he still asked for the address and decided to give it a try no matter what.

"Sister~"

In the teahouse, Lord Su threw the flowers from Su Lingshu's hand into his arms.

Xia Yange took it with a smile, holding the flowers and waving them at her, "Thank you Lingshu."

My younger sister lives in Lin'an with my father, with whom she has never had any contact. The two sisters have only seen each other a few times since they were young, but they often exchange letters. I know that Master Song taught her, and recently my father brought her to see Master Song.

"Daddy put me on the windowsill."

The team was almost passing by, but Su Lingshu couldn't even see them, so she anxiously gave instructions to her father.

Lady Nusu, her daughter, obediently put her on the window and held her waist to protect her.

The capital city was very lively today. Song Yanxi came out for a rare breath of fresh air. Her words and actions were graceful and appropriate, and she seemed to have the air of a queen.
