Chapter 40 Something happened to Liu Yan

It is no exaggeration to say that if there is an academy examination in Beijing, those who can rank first or second will be the most popular candidates for the number one scholar in the coming autumn. The six departments of the imperial court have begun to compete for candidates in advance.

Rong Yu and Rong Qian held their breath and watched nervously as the man lifted up the red silk.

The hanging red silk was a bit high, and the man jumped several times before barely touching the edge of the red silk.

Rong Qian was already impatient with waiting. He half-crouched on the ground and let Rong Yu climb onto his shoulders, standing on his shoulders to lift the red silk.

As a result, as soon as he squatted down, someone stepped on his back, then raised his foot and kicked him hard...

Rong Qian has recently been taught by Nalan Jing, and his martial arts has improved rapidly. He quickly reacted and rolled his head on the ground several times to avoid being hurt.

When Rong Yu saw that Rong Qian was not injured, her heart dropped and she hurriedly hid in the crowd.

When Rong Yu and Rong Qian were confused about who it was, they saw Liu Bi.

His hands were crippled and he could no longer hold heavy objects from now on. He was staring at Rong Qian with a sinister look on his face.

The one who attacked Rong Qian just now was the bodyguard he brought from the Liu Mansion.

When Rong Qian and Rong Yu saw that the situation was not good, they would wait for a beating and slip through the crowd faster than rabbits.

Liu Bi shouted loudly to the guards outside: "Stop them, and I will reward you heavily!"

Rong Qian looked at the guards who had been guarding a circle, secretly thinking something bad, and immediately rushed in the opposite direction to Rong Yu.

When Rong Qian was escaping, he was just cutting meat. It didn't matter what happened, and he wasn't afraid of death.

The guards all had knives in their hands. He kicked the knife and ran away. The people behind him threw the knife at him. He turned around as if there were eyes on his back, and his long legs flew up. The knife was shining brightly in the air.

Went back the way we came.

"Brush!" The long knife slashed a guard's arm.

The other guards were frightened for a moment, but Rong Qian turned around and hid in the crowd, disappearing without a trace.

In terms of running skills, Rong Yu is far inferior to Rong Qian. He hid in the crowd. Many people were a little panicked when encountering this situation. Among them, innocent children passing by were knocked to the ground and were about to be killed.

Trampled on, no matter how calm Rong Yu was, he could not ignore a living human life.

He pushed away the person in front of him and held the child in his arms. Someone hit him hard on the back. He knelt on the ground in pain, but he still endured the pain and picked up the child. He walked to a safe place and asked the child to leave quickly.

When Liu Bi saw Rong Qian running away, he was cursing. Suddenly he saw Rong Yu's back and thought he looked familiar. After Rong Yu let go of the child, most of his face was revealed, and he recognized it.

This is the wild boy's brother. He doesn't behave like a farmer, but more like a weak scholar.

Liu Bigang's depressed expression suddenly revealed a ruthless look in his eyes, and he asked the guards to surround Rong Yu and tie him up.

Rong Qian escaped successfully and waited for Rong Yu at the same place. Seeing that he could no longer wait, he quickly thought of moving in reinforcements.

Zhangmu Village was too far away, so he thought of going to Liu Mansion to find Liu Yan.

Liu Bi is Liu Yan's brother-in-law. His father has no ability. He has spent a lot of money on the family's share of property over the years. He wants Liu Bi to become a talented person, so he shamelessly asks Landlord Liu. Landlord Liu cares about his kinship and asks Liu Bi to become a talented person.

Live in the house.

Liu Bi lived under someone's roof, but he was squandering money. When he ran out of money, he asked Landlord Liu for help. Landlord Liu wanted him to study and make progress, so he would satisfy his needs every time.

As time passed, Liu Bi, the guest, became more distinguished than Liu Yan, the real young master.

Rong Qian found it strange that although Liu Bi was arrogant at the gate of the college last time and was accompanied by a group of gangsters, he didn't have this group of guards. Why did he become more arrogant after not seeing him for several days?

Could it be that the father and son were quarreling, and Landlord Liu was planning to cultivate his concubine's son as his own son?

Rong Qian was disgusted by his own thoughts. Landlord Liu should not cheat his son like this...

Rong Qian quickly arrived at Liu's house and climbed over the wall.

After he and Liu Yan became brothers, he had been to the Liu Mansion and knew that Liu Yan's courtyard was in this direction. He climbed over this wall and then passed through a side courtyard to reach it.

The courtyard was remote, and everyone was talking in disbelief.

"The eldest young master is simply not a human being. The master has doted on him since childhood, but he was deceived by several farm boys. Not only did he recognize the farm boys as his brothers, but he also came back to ask for money. When the master refused to give it, he stabbed him with a knife!"

"Oh, how pitiful I am! Why did you give birth to such a white-eyed wolf!"

"Fortunately, the housekeeper was so loyal that he suppressed this white-eyed wolf and sent him to the government. I believe the government will let him pay for his life!"

"The master was injured so seriously, he will definitely not be able to wake up."

"What should the Liu family do..."

"Isn't there also Young Master Liu Bi? He is the master's nephew. The young master committed parricide, so Master Liu Bi is justified even if he inherits the family business."

"That's right. Although Master Liu Bi usually has a bad temper, he is sincerely filial to me."

"..."

It was obviously not a hot day, but Rong Qian broke out into a sweat. He wiped the sweat off his face to calm down.

Rong Qian decided to observe first, otherwise he might be detained directly if he broke into Liu Yan's yard, or even be charged with conspiring with Liu Yan to kill landlord Liu.

Rong Qian has been running behind his elder brother for several years, and the place he has been to the most is the crime scene, which makes him unusually sharp.

He listened to the corner for a while and confirmed two pieces of information: Liu Yan had been escorted to the government and imprisoned, and Landlord Liu was seriously injured and fell into a coma. It seemed that he would not die soon.

Rong Qian also thought that his second brother might fall into the hands of Liu Bi and Liu Yan was imprisoned. It would be difficult to rescue him.

Rong Qian thought about it and could only go back to find Rong Xuan and Nalan Jing.

Nalanjing knew medical skills, and Rongxuan was good at solving cases. Even though he couldn't speak, he could still write and tell him what to do.

After figuring out what to do, Rong Qian climbed out from the wall without going in again.

They came to town today to see the rankings. They did not come to town on horseback. He had just bought the horse and he cherished it very much.

At this time, we can only go to the carriage and horse shop to hire a carriage and drive back to Zhangmu Village.

In the afternoon, it was time to go to the fields. Rong Yu and Rong Qian went to the town to see the results. Nalanjing took a hoe and a bucket and went to the fields alone.

Although the herbs were planted, she still wanted to observe them for a while and improve the soil thoroughly before planting the dracaena.

After working in the fields for nearly an hour, Rong Qian appeared anxiously and told her the whole story.

"Are you sure your second brother is in Liu Bi's hands?" Nalanjing put down the hoe, a chill flashing across his face.

After Rong Qian came out of Liu's house, he went to inquire at the gate of Qingshan Academy. Rong Qian was tied up and pulled into a carriage and taken away. In full view of everyone, there was no mistake.

Rong Qian still wants to go home to find Rong Xuan.

But Nalanjing asked him to say hello and leave, trying to get to Liu's house as soon as possible.

After returning to the yard, Nalanjing untied the horse's rope, climbed on the horse's back, let Rong Qian sit behind him, and ran out with his whip.

Many people who went to the ground only saw an afterimage and couldn't even see clearly who it was.
