Chapter 437

His rank was higher than his own.

And his combat record was too brutal.

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 didn't 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 office gate outside was beaten by someone.

At first.

Gu Yankai and the others didn't take it to heart.

This was an office.

Reporting cases wasn't an uncommon occurrence.

It was just that this situation didn't last long.

A bailiff ran over in a hurry.

Seeing this, Xun Bai Shui knew that things were not going to stop: "What is it?"

"It's Earl Wushuang who has arrived!"

The bailiff said hurriedly.

Hearing this.

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

Xun Baiyun and the others were also very surprised.

"He, he's here, why is he beating the drum?"

Hearing this.

Xun Bai Shui was the most beautiful.

"He is also escorting someone."

"He says he wants to report a case!"

"Invite them in."

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

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

Not long after.

Jia Hui appeared!

The moment they saw Jia Hui.

The younger Qin clan member, Gu Tingyu, and others who were seeing his appearance for the first time were all very surprised!

"What a tall, heroic, and handsome person! Truly worthy of being called the peerless Earl Wushuang!!"

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

Yuan Wenshao was even more ashamed, feeling inferior: "He is actually so good-looking and imposing; sure enough, only such a person is worthy of the legal daughter Hualan, 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 Baiyun was already distracted!

Xun Feizhan compared him to his master Meng Zhi, muttering 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 somewhat 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 being dragged along by two Great Snow Dragon Riders!

"Second brother!"

Gu Tingyu was shocked!

The younger Qin clan member and Gu Tingwei were also shocked, but chose to remain silent; they wouldn't stand up for Gu Tingye.. 0

The key was that the other party was not someone they could afford to provoke.

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

Although he was very disappointed in this son.

And hated that he couldn't live up to expectations.

But in the end, he was his son, not someone an outsider 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 male lead.

I've seen plenty of male leads.

In front of me, he's worth nothing.

Let alone him, I would even dare to arrest you, old thing.

Xun Bai Shui appreciated Jia Hui's appearance very much.

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 named the third-place winner, not the top scholar.

For officials, their appearance had to pass muster.

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

The Emperor and the hundred officials would all be disgusted.

Take Huang Chao for example.

During one imperial examination, seeing the successful candidates full of ambition and heroic spirit, Emperor Xizong of Tang was deeply 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 officials and successful students: "Too ugly, not accepted, go back to where you came from."

Hearing Emperor Xizong of Tang say this, the people in the hall 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 "Ode to Chrysanthemums After Failing the Exam," and then left the capital.

"If I were the Green Emperor in another year, I would report to the peach blossoms to bloom together!"

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

There are many similar examples.

The Northern Song general 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 the "young general" Wang Deyong spread throughout the army.

However, Wang Deyong, who was a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield, had the same fatal flaw as Huang Chao.

Nothing else, just his looks.

According to historical records, Wang Deyong's entire face was dark and weathered, but from the neck down, his skin was as white as snow. Logically, for a military general guarding the frontier, exposed to wind and sun all day, a dark complexion was understandable. However, those ministers in the imperial court still picked bones in an egg, memorializing that Wang Deyong's appearance was not suitable for being an official and damaged the dignity of the Great Song.

Even more infuriating was 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 in ancient times, regardless of gender, was highly valued.

Jia Hui was someone who looked good.

And it was the kind that everyone, regardless of age or gender, said was good.

The top-notch kind!
