Chapter 297

~10 min read 1,908 words

These words made Gu Yankai, the Earl of Zhongqin, and the others turn pale with shock and anger.

Xun Baishui, after all, had no conflict of interest.

He would not be broken by this.

He only noticed that when Cheng Yu mentioned the newspaper office.

He used the word "we"!

Proving that there was indeed someone behind the scenes!

This made Xun Baishui's eyes flash with brilliance, so he tentatively asked: "In your newspaper office, who else is the boss?"

These words made Gu Yankai and the others pause, and then they stared fixedly at Cheng Yu!

Even Xun Xun Xun Baiyun and the others felt curiosity rise.

When asked who the boss was, Cheng Yu smiled slightly: "Our newspaper's name is—Marquis Marquis Wushuang!"

He did not say directly who it was.

But he had already said everything.

【314】 They are all face-obsessed! Jia Hui's looks put Yuan Yuan Yuan Wenshao to shame.

This was a helpless move.

Because something Love Love Like a newspaper office.

If someone with intent investigates, they can still find out.

No one is a fool.

For these powerful nobles.

Of course.

If you really want to hide it, it's not impossible.

Jia Hui could find someone else to open it without using his name.

But a newspaper office is extraordinary.

It is destined to stir up trouble in the public opinion arena.

It will offend people.

Sooner or later, someone will come looking for trouble.

If you have no background and do not show your strength.

The newspaper office is destined not to stay open for long.

Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, Jia Hui and the others decided that there was no need for Jia Hui to hide.

It is just that for the nobles.

In the future, they can open some new newspaper offices to confuse the public.

Jia Hui also had no choice; who made them the only newspaper office right now.

It was too conspicuous.

Even if he wanted to hide, it would be difficult.

Jia Hui's foundation was also too shallow.

It was simply difficult to cover it up easily.

Anyway, for the first newspaper.

As long as it does not involve the imperial family, it does not matter.

"730" Xun Baishui's expression changed slightly after hearing this: "Marquis Marquis Wushuang, Earl Marquis Marquis Wushuang, Jia Hui!"

"It's actually him!"

The expressions of Xun Xun Xun Baiyun, as well as Xun Xun Xun Feizhan and Xun Anru, were all a bit strange.

Because they had just been mentioning Jia Hui earlier.

They didn't expect this newspaper office to be his!

Among them, Yuan Yuan Yuan Wenshao had the strongest emotions!

After all, this person had snatched away his own legal wife!

"So it was all his doing, hateful! Despicable!!"

Yuan Yuan Yuan Wenshao was filled with hatred, but soon became dejected.

Because he discovered that never mind his father.

Even the Marquis of Ningyuan could do nothing about Jia Hui, and could not even do anything to his subordinates!

This made him feel disheartened.

Xiao Xiao Xiao Qinshi, Gu Gu Gu Tingwei, and Gu Gu Gu Tingyu were shocked and angry; in the face of absolute power, no matter how many conspiracies they had, they were helpless.

"Jia Hui!"

Gu Yankai was also filled with hatred!

But likewise.

He could not do anything to Jia Hui either.

In terms of nobility, although he was higher than Jia Hui.

But in the end.

This world still looks at strength!

Power is strength!

And how does the power of both sides compare?

It is clear at a glance.

Gu Yankai was just an old general idling at home at this time.

He had no actual power.

And even if he had the opportunity to go on an expedition again.

He would only be leading troops outside.

The troops were not his either.

Because he simply could not threaten Jia Hui in the slightest!

Conversely, Jia Hui had the Flying Wolf Battalion troops and the City Guard troops.

The Flying Wolf Battalion could fight outside.

The City Guard could control the scene inside!

It can be said.

Inside and out, Jia Hui had both people and power!

The most exaggerated thing was that he was now the Vice Minister of the Ministry of War.

His power was incredibly astonishing!

Making all the major generals and armies in the world respect and fear him.

Therefore.

No matter how hateful he was, it was of no use!

This made Gu Yankai's face sink.

"Cough, cough."

This made Xun Baishui, who was in the courtroom, understand!

Therefore.

He spoke up, "Due to insufficient evidence, Cheng Yu and the Marquis Marquis Wushuang Newspaper Office are acquitted in court!"

He had no interest in continuing to bicker with the other party.

He had nothing to fear from Gu Yankai and the others.

However, he could not rashly offend Jia Hui himself.

The other party was a Vice Minister of the Ministry of War of the second rank.

His rank was higher than his own.

And his battle record was too fierce.

So it was best not to offend him if possible.

Therefore, he closed the case on the spot!

This made Gu Yankai, the Earl of Zhongqin, and the others look unpleasant.

But they did not say anything.

With a cold snort.

Gu Yankai intended to leave.

"Dong dong dong!!"

Just as they were about to leave.

Suddenly, the drum at the yamen gate outside was beaten by someone.

At first.

Gu Yankai and the others did not take it to heart.

This is a yamen.

Reporting cases is not an uncommon thing.

It was just that this situation did not last long.

An official runner ran over in a hurry.

Seeing this, Xun Baishui knew that things were not stopping: "What is the matter?"

"It is Earl Marquis Marquis Wushuang who has come!"

The official runner said hurriedly.

Hearing this.

Gu Yankai and the others, who were about to leave, stopped in their tracks.

Xun Xun Xun Baiyun and the others were also very surprised.

"He has come, why beat the drum?"

Hearing this.

Xun Baishui was stunned.

"He is also escorting someone."

"Saying he wants to report a case!"

"Invite them in."

After listening, Xun Baishui was puzzled; he looked at Gu Yankai and the others, and then at the smiling Cheng Yu.

He felt that the matter had something to do with him.

Before long.

Jia Hui appeared!

The moment they saw Jia Hui.

Xiao Xiao Xiao Qinshi, Gu Gu Gu Tingyu, and others who were seeing his appearance for the first time were all quite surprised!

"What a tall, heroic, and handsome person! He is truly worthy of being called the peerless Earl Marquis Marquis Wushuang!!"

Even Gu Yankai, who harbored resentment toward Jia Hui, had to admit it.

Yuan Yuan Yuan Wenshao was even more ashamed, feeling inferior: "He is actually so good-looking and imposing. Indeed, only such a person is worthy of the legal daughter Hua Lan. I am not as good!"

"Aunt, brother, he is so good-looking!"

The innocent and romantic Xun Anru's beautiful eyes widened!

There was no response, because Xun Xun Xun Baiyun was already distracted!

Xun Xun Xun Feizhan secretly compared him with his master Meng Zhi, and muttered in a low voice: "He is actually taller than my master, and his aura and presence are even stronger!"

"He might, really be even stronger than my master!"

His mood was a bit complicated.

Originally, he thought his master was the strongest in the world!

Now he realized that there are mountains beyond mountains, and people beyond people!

After everyone was shocked.

Only then did someone notice the person who was being dragged along by two Snow Dragon Riders!

"Second brother!"

Gu Gu Gu Tingyu was shocked!

Xiao Xiao Xiao Qinshi and Gu Gu Gu Tingwei, mother and son, were also shocked, but chose to remain silent; they would not stand up for Gu Gu Gu Tingye.. 0

The key is that the other party is not someone they can afford to provoke.

Gu Yankai was furious: "Jia Hui, you dare to arrest my son!"

Although he was very disappointed in this son of his.

Hating that iron would not become steel.

But he was his son after all, not someone an outsider Love Love Like Jia Hui could compare to.

Not to mention that Jia Hui now had a grudge against them.

Jia Hui responded with a faint smile: "Marquis of Ningyuan, why wouldn't I dare to arrest your son?"

So what if your son is the protagonist.

I have seen plenty of protagonists.

In front of me, he is nothing.

Never mind him, I would even dare to arrest you, you old thing.

Xun Baishui very much appreciated Jia Hui's appearance.

Modern people always talk about looks.

In fact, ancient times valued looks even more.

In the imperial examinations, only those who were handsome would be appointed as the third-place winner, not the top scholar.

For those who are officials, their appearance must pass muster.

Otherwise, you wouldn't even be able to be an official.

The Emperor and all the officials would dislike you.

Take Huang Chao for example.

During one imperial examination, seeing the successful candidates full of ambition and heroic spirit, the Emperor Tang Xizong felt very gratified.

But when he saw Huang Chao, his expression changed drastically, because Huang Chao's appearance was indeed unsatisfactory, and he actually said in front of many ministers and successful scholars: "Too ugly, not accepted, go back to where you came from."

Hearing Tang Xizong say this, the people in the temple also burst into laughter, and Huang Chao was also red-faced, unable to bear the humiliation, and walked out of the hall quickly.

In his anger, he wrote the famous poem "Chrysanthemums After Failing the Exam," and then left the capital.

If I were the Green Emperor in another year, I would bloom with the peach blossoms!

The soaring fragrance pierces Chang'an, the whole city is covered in golden armor.

There are many similar examples.

The Northern Song general Wang Wang Wang Deyong once led ten thousand troops to follow his father on an expedition against Li Jiqian, and after dealing a heavy blow to the enemy at Tiemen Pass, he successfully covered the retreat of the main army. For a time, the reputation of "Young General" Wang Wang Wang Deyong spread throughout the army.

However, Wang Wang Wang Deyong, who was magnificent on the battlefield, had the same fatal flaw as Huang Chao.

Nothing else, just his looks.

According to historical records, Wang Wang Wang Deyong's entire face was dark and weathered, but from the neck down, his skin was as white as snow. It stands to reason that a military general guarding the border, exposed to wind and sun all day, having dark skin is understandable. But the ministers in the imperial court still nitpicked, submitting a memorial saying that Wang Wang Wang Deyong's appearance was not suitable for being an official, damaging the majesty of the Great Song.

What is even more infuriating is that the Emperor actually listened.

He issued an edict demoting him to a small local official, far away from the capital.

So it is said.

Appearance is highly valued in ancient times, regardless of gender.

Jia Hui is someone who looks good.

And it is the kind that everyone, regardless of age or gender, says is good.

The top-notch kind!
