Chapter 502

Now that Zhou Laoyezi had met such an end, Wu Zhao felt extremely relieved!

Chu Ningyu looked at Gao Yang with an angry face, "Lord Gao, Zhou Laoyezi has a clean reputation throughout his life and is renowned across the seven kingdoms; isn't it too much to treat a great scholar who has passed the age of sixty like this?"

Gao Yang stared at Chu Ningyu, a cold sneer on his lips.

It was clearly the Great Chu delegation that had attacked him first, and this Zhou Zifu had no shame, using his own name to slander him as a plagiarist and then attack Great Qian.

He was merely counterattacking, yet this Chu Ningyu was actually the one feeling aggrieved?

But Gao Yang's personality was such that anyone who dared to plot against him had to be prepared to pay the price!

Gao Yang had grudges, and he would definitely repay them, no matter how far away!

Thinking of this, Gao Yang looked at Chu Ningyu with indifference and sneered, "Great Princess, these words are excessive; my school does not like plagiarizers, is that a mistake?"

"What is wrong with that?"

Hearing this, Chu Ningyu gritted her teeth and said, "Lord Gao, although you won today, you know best in your heart whether Zhou Laoyezi plagiarized!"

"Zhou Laoyezi has a clean reputation throughout his life; I believe the scholars of the world are not fools, and justice resides in the hearts of the people!"

Chu Ningyu's voice grew colder with every word, her beautiful eyes fixed on Gao Yang's face.

After these words, the expressions of Zhou Laoyezi and the Great Chu delegation improved significantly.

Even the officials of Great Qian frowned.

As Chu Ningyu said, the idea that Gao Yang had written Zhou Laoyezi's famous work at the age of twelve and that it had been plagiarized by Zhou Laoyezi was too unbelievable.

Furthermore, if Gao Yang had written this "Ascending the River, Autumn Moon" at twelve, even the slightest leak would have made Gao Yang's name spread throughout Great Qian, hailed as a child prodigy and a literary star descended to earth!

This preemptive strike did have a miraculous effect, and combined with Gao Yang's many poems, it could indeed make some people believe, but overall, the loopholes were too large.

Wang Zhong stared at Gao Yang, locking onto that delicate face.

Based on his experience of eating dozens of pounds of locusts and his understanding of Gao Yang, something was very wrong.

Gao Yang, a Poisonous Scholar, would attack like a storm, leaving people unable to react; when Gao Yang was just a junior official in the Ministry of Revenue, he had dared to make the Empress eat locusts in the Jin Luandian.

At that time, he had smiled brightly, thinking Gao Yang was dead for sure.

But he hadn't expected that the target was him.

The logical loopholes in this matter were too large, and the claim of "hiding talent" was too forced; this didn't seem like Gao Yang's style!

It was also at this moment that Gao Yang looked at Chu Ningyu with a cold gaze and chuckled, "Great Princess, what you said is exactly what I wanted to say."

"But coincidentally, I have solid evidence!"

As these words fell, Wang Zhong's pupils shrank.

His heart suddenly jumped to his throat; his guess had come true!

The Living Yama had another trump card!
