Chapter 36: Just Reviewing
Jiang Zhiyu stood up and said with a firm look, "We must take the initiative and use the strategy of luring the enemy into a trap to deal with potential enemies."
Liu Mengmeng immediately agreed: "Yes, take the initiative."
Jiang Zhiyu said seriously, "We can pretend that we know nothing about this matter and secretly investigate the other party's identity and purpose. When the time is right, we can set a trap and let them fall into it."
"Well, this is a good idea." Liu Mengmeng clapped her hands in praise.
"Then let's take action tonight." Qi Zimo said decisively.
Xiao Wen looked at them, feeling a little uneasy: "But what should we do if we really offend someone?"
Liu Mengmeng held Xiao Wen's hand and comforted her: "Don't worry, we will face it together."
That night, the four of them had a secret conversation in the cell.
After discussing it for a while, they decided to first find out who this female disciple wearing the Imperial College uniform was and why she was hostile towards them!
……
The Imperial College’s ten-day examination is just three days away.
That night, the stars were shining brightly, and Xiao Wen and Zhang Anjie sneaked to the back hill to have a tryst and talk about love.
This scene was secretly watched by a female disciple hiding in the bushes.
The female disciple gave a sinister smile, and then quickly evacuated under the cover of night.
"Master Siye, something big has happened! Come with me to take a look!"
Jiang Shuyuan rushed into Shangguan Zhengming's study in a hurry, completely disregarding the elegant and calm image she usually maintained.
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Zhengming put down the book in his hand and frowned.
He looked at Jiang Shuyuan, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes: "Why are you so flustered?"
There happened to be two female disciples in the study room, one was Gu Wenqin, the monitor of Xuan Class 1, and the other was Cheng Shiyu, the deputy monitor of Di Class 4. They came to Shangguan Zhengming to report on the class's learning situation.
Jiang Shuyuan patted her heaving chest and said excitedly, "Master Dean, Xiao Wen and a male disciple were seen doing something shameful in the back mountain!"
When she saw that there were outsiders present, she raised her voice even higher, and even emphasized the four words "shameful affairs", as if she was afraid that they couldn't hear clearly!
Oh my God!
It's so explosive!
Gu Wenqin and Cheng Shiyu looked at each other, their pupils trembling.
Shangguan Zhengming's face suddenly changed, and he said in a deep voice: "What? How, how is this possible?!"
"It's true! I saw it with my own eyes! If you don't believe it, Lord Siye, you can go and see it for yourself!" Jiang Shuyuan explained anxiously.
Shangguan Zhengming's face turned pale, and then he waved his hand to let Gu Wenqin and Cheng Shiyu leave, and warned them not to spread what they had just heard!
Gu Wenqin and Cheng Shiyu agreed obediently on the surface, and when they left the room, they ran away excitedly. Rumors about the incident in the back mountain spread quickly in the Imperial College like the wind, and various versions of the rumors emerged one after another.
When Shangguan Zhengming and Jiang Shuyuan came to the back mountain together, the head monk Feng Qingzhou was guarding the entrance.
Shangguan Zhengming and Jiang Shuyuan stood at the entrance to the back mountain of the Imperial College, both of them with solemn expressions on their faces.
When Feng Qingzhou saw the two people arriving, his expression changed slightly, but soon returned to normal.
"Master Feng, are Xiao Wen and Zhang Anjie in there?" Shangguan Zhengming asked calmly, but there was an unquestionable firmness in his eyes.
Feng Qingzhou looked at Shangguan Zhengming, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, his lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but stopped. He turned his head and looked at the deep back mountain, where the trees were shaded and quiet, but in this quietness, it seemed that some unspeakable secrets were hidden.
"This..." Feng Qingzhou hesitated and couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.
Shangguan Zhengming frowned when he saw this, and was about to ask again, but Jiang Shuyuan gently pulled his sleeve, signaling him not to rush. She turned and walked towards Feng Qingzhou, with a smile on her face, and said, "Master Feng, you don't have to hide anything. We are here just to investigate a little. If there is really something wrong, we will not sit idly by."
Feng Qingzhou looked at Jiang Shuyuan, with a hint of admiration in his eyes. He nodded and finally spoke: "Xiao Wen and Zhang Anjie...they...they are in the small pavilion in the back mountain."
"Small pavilion?" Shangguan Zhengming's eyes shone, and he said, "Let's go in and take a look!"
Jiang Shuyuan followed immediately, and a large group of people gathered behind her. They were all students who wanted to come to the back mountain to join in the fun and watch the show!
Feng Qingzhou looked at the group of excited students with a frown on his face. He wanted to step forward to stop them, but he heard Jiang Shuyuan chuckle and said, "Feng Qingzhou, why not let them come along? The moonlight is just right tonight, so it's a good opportunity for everyone to enjoy the moon together."
Feng Qingzhou's worry faded a little after hearing this. He knew Jiang Shuyuan was not making a fuss, so he nodded slightly and said, "Okay, but you have to be careful."
Shangguan Zhengming's gaze pierced through the night like a sharp arrow and fell directly in the direction of Mo Yunting.
At this moment, the sound of reading aloud seemed quite abrupt in this quiet night.
Shangguan Zhengming was stunned, his brows furrowed, a hint of barely perceptible surprise flashed across his face, and then was replaced by anger. He quickened his pace and walked towards the pavilion.
Not only Xiao Wen and Zhang Anjie, but all the other students in Class Huang, including Jiang Zhiyu, were here, neatly arranged, not one missing.
"Xiao Wen! Zhang Anjie! What are you doing?" Shangguan Zhengming's voice echoed in the silent night sky.
Xiao Wen raised her head, stood up with a smile, and bowed to Shangguan Zhengming: "Shangguan Siye, we are just reviewing our lessons and preparing for the next assessment."
Zhang Anjie also stood up and added, "Yes, we are afraid that studying in the classroom will disturb others, so we chose to study here."
Jiang Zhiyu couldn't help but speak up: "Shangguan Siye, we just want to review in a quiet environment. The students in the Xuan class laughed at us, and we don't want others to think that the students in our Huang class are all useless."
Jiang Shuyuan's expression became even uglier. She glared at Jiang Zhiyu and was about to explode when she heard Qi Zimo say, "Senior Sister Shuyuan, the moonlight is just right tonight. Why don't we enjoy the moon together and let everyone relax at the same time?"
Shangguan Zhengming nodded slightly and agreed: "Qi Zimo is right. The moonlight tonight is indeed suitable for moon watching. Since we are here, why don't you all watch the moon and study together."
Jiang Shuyuan was furious and immediately complained to Shangguan Zhengming, "Shangguan Siye, I... I just saw Xiao Wen and Zhang Anjie doing indecent things in the woods behind the mountain. They... They really lost their dignity. As a classmate, how could I just sit there and watch?"
Shangguan Zhengming frowned, and scanned Jiang Shuyuan with a sharp gaze, and said in a serious tone: "Jiang Shuyuan, do you know that there are consequences for framing others? Do you have any evidence to prove that what you said is true?"
