Chapter 415 Bookish Season
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Chu Nianshan regretted them.

A grown man is afraid of pain and will laugh out loud when he talks about it.

Lin Zhiyu focused on the wound on his back and didn't notice Chu Nianshan's slight stiffness.

"The more medicine you use, the faster you will heal." Even so, Lin Zhiyu still moved his hands a little more gently, "Now that Master Ji Yan is not here, I can't be like him and rejuvenate."

Now that the medicine is on, the next step is to bandage it.

When Lin Zhiyu reached out to get the gauze, she noticed that Chu Nianshan looked a little aggrieved.

Wait, aggrieved?
She was slightly surprised, thinking she had said something she shouldn't have said: "That or something, I just said it casually, just for fun, don't take it to heart."

"It was a slip of the tongue just now." Chu Nianshan said suddenly.

Lin Zhiyu realized that he felt embarrassed about the "lighter" sentence.

"What's the matter? It's a human being, so he's afraid of pain." Lin Zhiyu felt relieved and said indifferently, "Not everyone is Guan Gong, who can scrape bones to treat poison and play chess at the same time. "

Lin Zhiyu clumsily helped Chu Nianshan wrap the gauze and painstakingly tied a half-dead bow on it.

It's a bit ugly, but there's nothing I can do about it.

She looked at the gauze that was a lot shorter and sighed helplessly.

Breath slapped on Chu Nianshan's back, and his nerves seemed to become active all of a sudden. Any slightest movement could cause unnecessary trembling.

He hurriedly put on his coat: "Thank you."

Turning around and seeing Lin Zhiyu not leaving, looking at him with a mask on, Chu Nianshan remembered her purpose, stood up and took out the formula sheet from under the table, which also had the sources of several ingredients he marked.

"There are very few people selling these materials in the black market. I will ask again tomorrow."

Chu Nianshan's tone returned to its previous calmness. Only he knew how violently his heart was beating.

The door closed, and he was alone in the room again.

Many years ago, the little girl who was not taller than him told him to live well and let others know that you are a weakling who cannot be beaten to death.

Many years later, the little girl told him that he did not need to live his life as an invulnerable hero.

Chu Nianshan finally knew why he felt pain.

It seemed that in front of her, he had always been the helpless seven-year-old child waiting to be rescued.

Lin Zhiyu took the drawings and when passing by the yard, he saw the shopkeeper Qianji walking quickly to Chu Nianshan's house.

Catching a glimpse of Lin Zhiyu from the corner of his eye, he stopped respectfully and saluted.

Even if he wears a mask, the only one who can enter and exit the boss's house is the boss's boss.

Lin Zhiyu nodded, and when Qianji was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something and called him back.

"Do you know where your boss went today?"

Qianji was stunned for a moment, hesitating whether to tell the truth.

But the boss said that the woman in front of him had as much weight as his words.

If I lied, would I be disobeying the order?
Qianji thought for a while: "I went to the black market. Madam, you can rest assured that my boss is not one of those people who hangs around in the land of smoke and willows."

Half words don't count as disobedience.

Lin Zhiyu remembered Chu Nianshan and what he said about the black market situation, and there was no doubt that he was there.

"I saw that he was injured, so I asked one more question." Lin Zhiyu smiled under the mask, "I saw that you were leaving in a hurry, but what happened to Ruyifang?"

Qianji replied: "It has nothing to do with Ruyifang. It's just a few scholars over there in Dali Temple who are gathering to make trouble."

"Gathering a crowd to make trouble?" Lin Zhiyu remembered what An Gaoyi said to her. "Isn't that right? It seems that their teacher was arrested for redressing the grievances of the people. He also wrote some specious articles and circulated them on the streets."

……

Jiang Wanning frowned and entered Qin Xiao's Xunxiang Pavilion.

Xunxiang Pavilion was just completed a few months ago, and the faint smell of red paint can still be smelled in the air.

Passing through the layers of bead curtains, she passed over the mute musicians on the ground and stood outside the screen.

"Mother."

She bowed, her eyes full of respect.

"There's a commotion outside Dali Temple. It's a few civilian scholars. Jiang Chen, the minister of Dali Temple, sent a letter to ask what should be done."

In this world, the most difficult thing to deal with is a scholar. He has a stubborn spirit, and because of the spirit in his heart, he means not crying until he hits the wall.

There was a rustling sound coming from inside, and after a while, Qin Xiao's voice came from inside: "What did you say?"

Jiang Wanning hesitated for a moment and said: "It's nothing more than talking about relatives intervening in politics and asking where the court's money was spent.

The leader also called on several colleagues, copied several copies, and circulated them among the people. "

There was a chuckle from inside: "You are really brave. Have you taken back everything?"

"Basically everything has been taken back," Jiang Wanning said, "but there was a gentleman inside who had a lot of friends. He heard about this from somewhere and gathered at the gate of Dali Temple to make a fuss about letting him go.

According to the people below, there are still some students outside the city. Although they cannot enter the city, refugees gather there and their emotions are easily aroused. "

Jiang Wanning glanced at the scattered clothes and messy gold and silver utensils in the corner, and added: "If they are all arrested, people outside the city will get the news, and a civil uprising may occur."

Qin Xiao finally came out from behind the screen, with her hair loose and a little more charming.

Jiang Wanning stepped forward and helped her sit down on the small table on the side.

"As a scholar, it is a small matter to starve to death, but it is a big matter to lose one's integrity."

Qin Xiao said casually.

"Even if we really let him go, we will still be angry to death. The word "death" is spoken on both sides. Why not, let's kill him together."

"Kill...?" Jiang Wanning was secretly shocked.

"I'm afraid this is not good. There are already a lot of complaints among the people about the Jiang family's interference in the court affairs. If he is really killed, not to mention the rivers of blood, the people's resentment will become more and more serious."

Qin Xiao looked at this daughter who had no blood relationship with him and chuckled again.

"If you die, you won't have any complaints." She said, "Winter will always pass and spring will come. They don't want to endure it and insist on pointing fingers at us. That's their fault."

There is nothing wrong with staying in this winter forever.

Jiang Wanning had no choice but to respond.

After leaving Xunxiang Pavilion, Jiang Wanning summoned the chamberlain.

"Take a few people to Dali Temple. If those poor scholars continue to cause trouble, they will be killed on the spot."

……

I don’t know how many spies Chu Nianshan had in the palace. I only know that the order to shoot the scholar arrived at Ruyifang before arriving at Dali Temple.

Lin Zhiyu hurriedly went to his room, took out a small box, and took out a thin jade pendant from it.

This jade pendant is the only thing on Zhou Zijin's body that can prove his identity.
