Gu Shiwei listened, thinking that Han Shiyan was lucky that he didn't speak so sinisterly to her, otherwise she would have unsheathed her sword and cut off this guy's head directly.

"Gu Jun'an told you what the topic of the palace examination was? Was it a test on border wars or classics?" Gu Shiwei said, remembering the article in the bamboo basket she had read before, and asked with an idea.

Li Dongyang's eyes were already scarlet at this moment. He was holding his head a little anxiously. He looked angry at one moment and extremely guilty at the other.

Hearing Gu Shiwei's question, he raised his head and said, "It's about taxes."

Gu Shiwei's heart sank when she heard this, and she shook her head at Li Dongyang, "No, the test is about Zhuangzi's Qing Jing Zhi Zhi."

She was still in the Gu family when Gu Junan passed the exam, so she was deeply impressed by this matter. It was an unprecedented and unprecedented event for the old Gu family. Gu Yanyan was so happy that the brown rice porridge he served to his ancestors was so thick that it seemed There was no one left.

Li Dongyang's mind buzzed, his legs softened, and he sat on the ground in disbelief.

Gu Shiwei looked at him quietly and said, "Didn't you say that Gu Jun'an told you everything? Then he told you that his father poisoned my mother-in-law and my younger brother? Did he tell you the second room of the Gu family? This person is a tyrant in Bianhe River, and I don’t know how many people have died."

"Zhu He lives in Yangzhou. He went to Bianjing to take the exam by water. He fell ill on the Bianhe River and returned... Do you still think all this is just a coincidence?"

"If you still can't understand it by now, then I can only say that it's a good thing you didn't pass the exam. Otherwise, you wouldn't be an extremely confused parent officer when you go to the local government, and you don't know how many unjust cases and wrong cases you have to solve!"

Li Dongyang seemed to have heard nothing. He covered his ears and kept shaking his head.

He was mumbling something as if he was chanting sutras. After a while, he muttered to himself louder and louder, so loud that even Gu Shiwei and Han Shiyan could hear him clearly.

"It's impossible, it's impossible, that's not what Brother Jun'an told me. Before he took the imperial examination, we had written an article about Huang Lao's way to peace. It's impossible."

As Li Dongyang spoke, he raised his head and looked at Gu Shiwei hopefully, but tears were streaming down his face.

"You deceived me, didn't you? Brother Jun'an said you were scheming... You must have deceived me."

Gu Shiwei sighed in his heart and shook his head, "If you ask anyone in Bianjing City, they will all know that I did not lie to you. The facts are in front of you. Why do you still fool yourself and continue to destroy your life?" Does it work for people?”

When Li Dongyang heard this, he couldn't bear it any longer. He hugged his legs tightly, buried his head, and began to sob.

"Why? If Gu Jun'an takes the exam himself, he may not fail to win the first prize. What if he doesn't win the first prize? If he wins the first prize, he can still show off his skills in the court and realize his ideals and ambitions!"

"Why? The four of us quarreled and became close friends from then on. Isn't it a good story in the court? Why did you do such a cruel thing! Why did you do this to me..."

Gu Shiwei knew that Li Dongyang wanted to ask why Zhu He just returned home due to illness, but when he came to him, he was like this...

He didn't ask the question, Han Shiyan had just told him the answer.

Li Dongyang looked at his right hand that could still hold a pen, because he had a pair of hands that could turn words into gold!

Among the four people, only his path to fame is different. What makes him famous is that he can turn a piece of rubbish into a piece of talent.

Li Dongyang thought and smiled sadly, "You are right, I am too stupid! Before today, I have never doubted Gu Junan." "He kept my right hand because he wanted me to correct the article for him alone. . Before he passed the exam, we had already written that article. At that time, my injury was not healed and I could only lie on the couch... I knew that I could not take the exam and wanted to die, but he sat by the bed and gave me Read his articles.”

"He asked me to help him revise it. He said he would take my share to participate in the imperial examination. When we get the top prize, it would be an honor for both of us."

"It's funny. I was so moved at the time because this thing came to life. I never thought that what he said was the truth. He did take this part of me with him."

As Li Dongyang spoke, he looked at his left hand again. His voice became a little weaker and weaker.

"But now, what can I do? I have changed beyond recognition, and I can't even prove that I am Li Dongyang!"

"Who would believe what a useless person like me says? Especially as Han Shiyan said, they have already arranged for a corpse of Li Dongyang to replace me. Now I am already lying in my ancestral grave. Got it!"

Li Dongyang suddenly burst into flames as he spoke. He rushed towards the window next to him like a gust of wind. He opened his eyes and looked at the bright moonlight and jumped down without hesitation.

His life has been ruined, in an extremely embarrassing way.

For so many years, having the person who harmed him become a benefactor and a confidant made him feel more like an abyss of hell than having his career ruined.

Once upon a time, he was also a gentleman like the bright moon!

But all this is gone.

It would be great if Li Dongyang really died that night, he thought.

"Have you finished admiring the moon? Can I help you up? You have been a coward once, do you plan to be a second time? It turns out that this is a madman among literati! What should I do? For people like us who practice martial arts, Yan, this is called a coward!"

"It is unworthy of a gentleman not to avenge one's enemies. As a scholar, don't you understand this truth?"

Li Dongyang raised his head and looked over his head. His right arm was being held by Gu Shinwei. This girl could be blown away by a gust of wind, but she stood like a rock in front of the window, as if she would never be there. Will be shaken!

He suddenly remembered the "Letter of Broken Relationship" that he helped Gu Jun'an revise. At that time, he only felt that he had great literary talent and wrote a masterpiece together with Gu Jun'an. Now that he thought about it, what kind of righteous poem was it? The knife stabbing into the heart of the little girl in front of me!

When Li Dongyang thought of this, his heart was as sharp as a knife.

Suddenly he didn't want to die. He still had debts that he had not paid off.

He looked at Gu Shiwei with clear eyes, "I'm sorry, please pull me up."

Gu Shinwei smiled at Li Dongyang, and with a fierce tug, she directly pulled the strong man up like a big bear.

When Han Shiyan saw Gu Shiwei looking back at him, the corners of his originally raised mouth suddenly flattened. He cleared his throat and said seriously, "This is the second floor. Even if you fall, you won't die. If you relax your grip a little, His feet can even touch the ground. Why stage a separation between life and death?"

Gu Shiwei chuckled and rubbed the hilt of his sword.

When a veteran meets a scholar and listens to his talk of ghosts, he immediately kills him!
