Chapter 327
Jiang Zhan was first confused by his reckless behavior, and the next moment he saw Zongzheng Yun staring at his bare chest, his eyes straight. He suddenly realized something, and all his blood rushed to the top of his head.
Without thinking, he smashed a punch at the "lecherous" man.
It hit the eye squarely.
"Your Highness Prince Yu, please respect yourself!"
So what if you are a prince? Can a prince be so frivolous and rude? Although he has no power or influence, he would rather die than suffer this humiliation!
This punch completely brought Zongzheng Yun back to his senses.
He hissed after the fact, subconsciously raising his hand to cover his injured left eye. He originally wanted to say that they were both men, so what if he looked at him, it wouldn't make him lose a piece of meat, but seeing the young man's face flushed with anger, ready to fight him to the death, he finally changed his tone. "Sorry, this Prince thought you were a girl..."
As soon as the words came out, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
Shouldn't a girl be even less allowed to strip the other person's clothes? It's over, it makes him look even more lecherous.
"This Prince didn't mean that..."
"Shameless!"
Before Zongzheng Yun could explain, Jiang Zhan had already pulled the door bolt and ran out of the duty room without looking back.
Su Qingyao and others were standing outside the door.
Seeing Jiang Zhan come out, Su Qingyao breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly looked him up and down, and asked: "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, thank you for your concern, my lord." Jiang Zhan smiled reluctantly.
What else could he say?
Say that Prince Yu moved his hands and feet on him, intending to be improper?
Not to mention whether others believe it or not, public opinion is a powerful force. Once this matter spreads, Prince Yu's reputation will certainly not sound good, but he won't be able to get any good either, and will only become a topic of conversation for others after tea and dinner.
"It's good that you're fine." Su Qingyao patted his shoulder and comforted him. "Go back and rest well, don't think too much, and wait for the list to be released tomorrow."
Jiang Zhan nodded gratefully. "Then the student will take his leave first."
After speaking, he turned and left.
Su Qingyao gave Xiong Er a wink, and Xiong Er hurriedly followed, preparing to escort Jiang Zhan back to the county hostel.
Seeing this, Bi Shijing smiled with a fake smile. "Lord Su is really protective of this freshly baked Prefectural Top Scholar. If I didn't know, I would have thought you had some relative relationship before."
"Lord Bi is overthinking." Su Qingyao laughed. "The humble official just cherishes talent, unlike some people who are in a high position but have a narrow mind, can't see others being better than themselves, and have to take action to suppress them. The humble official can't do such a heartless thing."
Anyway, they had already torn their faces, so there was no need to be polite.
Bi Shijing couldn't hear that Su Qingyao was scolding him, and his beard curled up, intending to show his superior's official power, but his peripheral vision caught Zongzheng Yun walking over, and he couldn't help but exclaim. "Oh, Your Highness, your eye..."
Others looked over in unison.
Zongzheng Yun waved his hand and said indifferently: "It's okay, it's a small matter."
"Your Highness is a noble body, how can it be a small matter? Who is so bold to hurt you, it's simply a crime worthy of death!"
Bi Shijing's eyes turned, and he suddenly raised his volume. "Your Highness was fine when you went in, but became like this when you came out. There were only you and Jiang Zhan inside. Could it be... that Jiang Zhan hit you?"
Su Qingyao's face changed suddenly.
Beating a prince is a crime worthy of beheading!
He hurriedly looked at Zongzheng Yun.
Zongzheng Yun smiled, but the smile carried a trace of chill. "Old Bi, being smart is not likable. This Prince said it's okay. If your ears are deaf because you are old, this Prince doesn't mind mentioning a word in front of the Emperor, letting you retire early. What do you think?"
Bi Shijing's legs went soft, and he almost knelt down.
He had worked hard for so many years, offended so many people to climb up, and finally climbed to his current position. How could he be willing to go home to retire at the age of fifty?
Absolutely not!
"It was the humble official who talked too much, please Your Highness, raise your hand high and don't care about the humble official." Bi Shijing begged, his spine almost bent into a shrimp.
"Hahaha, this Prince just said it casually, Lord Bi doesn't need to take it too seriously."
Zongzheng Yun returned to his approachable appearance. "Since the case has been interrogated, this Prince should go back too. You two lords continue to be busy, this Prince won't disturb you."
After speaking, he lifted his feet and walked toward the gate of the government office.
He walked two steps as if thinking of something, and turned back. "Oh right, Lord Bi, Jiang Zhan is a talent, this Prince likes him quite a bit, and hopes that one day he can stand on the Golden Throne and contribute to my Da Zhao. Before that, this Prince doesn't want to see anything happen to him, do you understand?"
Bi Shijing broke out in a cold sweat and nodded repeatedly. "The humble official understands."
Prince Yu is warning him not to take action against Jiang Zhan, otherwise he will make himself unable to eat and walk around.
He originally had this intention.
If he couldn't kill Jiang Zhan openly, it didn't matter; he would use some means secretly. He didn't expect Jiang Zhan to be valued by Su Qingyao and also get Prince Yu's favor.
But why?
Clearly Prince Yu met Jiang Zhan for the first time today, why protect him like this?
Bi Shijing couldn't figure it out.
Thinking of Jiang Zhan's beautiful face, an absurd thought suddenly popped into his mind.
Could it be... Prince Yu has taken a fancy to Jiang Zhan??
The more he thought about it, the more possible it was. Otherwise, for no reason, why would Prince Yu pull Jiang Zhan into the room and not allow others to be present? And Jiang Zhan's face was flushed and his clothes were messy when he came out, which clearly meant he had been taken advantage of.
That's why Jiang Zhan hit Prince Yu in shame and anger.
Then everything makes sense.
No wonder Prince Yu didn't want to marry a consort even at twenty. The Emperor found so many women with good backgrounds and good looks, but he didn't like any of them.
It turned out it wasn't that he didn't like them, but that he didn't want to look at them at all.
Because, he likes men!
Bi Shijing felt that he had glimpsed the secret of heaven, and his originally low mood was excited by this explosive news.
If the Emperor knew...
"I don't know when Lord Bi will return to the capital?" Su Qingyao's voice came from his ear.
Bi Shijing cleared his throat and tried his best to suppress his inner excitement. "Since the imperial exam has come to an end, this official shouldn't stay long. I will set off tomorrow morning."
He couldn't wait to share the "good news" about Prince Yu with the Emperor.
He also couldn't wait to watch Prince Yu's miserable end.
At that time, let's see what Prince Yu uses to protect that damn Jiang Zhan, hehe!
At this time, Zongzheng Yun had just walked out of the government office gate.
He happened to see Xiong Er driving a carriage, carrying Jiang Zhan and galloping away.
Soon disappeared.
Looking at the carriage butt moving away, Zongzheng Yun's eyes flashed with essence.
Jiang Zhan is not Du Ruo.
He knew this in his heart when he was hit.
That woman wouldn't be so soft-hearted, just giving the other party a punch that didn't hurt or itch.
She should have used the Buddha's shadowless kick.
Directly kicking the crotch.
She once said that to deal with a lecher, one should be more lecherous than the other.
It was like when Huo Mingzheng, that lecher, got drunk at the investment banquet and tried to molest her, but she didn't get used to him at all and knocked him down on the spot with a bottle of special anti-wolf spray.
Everyone watched as Huo Mingzheng swelled into a pig's head.
And almost castrated himself in public.
However, Zongzheng Yun was not disappointed. Although Jiang Zhan is not Du Ruo, he must have some connection with Du Ruo. Otherwise, why is it such a coincidence that he knows how to use equations, and he happens to be in Wutou Xian, and Wutou Xian is where chili first appeared, and it is also where he crossed over.
As long as he follows the vine to find the melon, he will definitely be able to find her.
"Long Dan, immediately send someone to check the situation of the Jiang family, don't miss anyone in the Jiang family. Before noon tomorrow, this Prince wants to know all the information!"
"Yes, master!"
