Chapter 812

Before Chongyang could speak, Yin Jiuqing snorted, "Buy food."

Wei Chu: "..."

"Hey." Looking at the disgusted or shocked eyes on him, he smiled embarrassedly.

Seeing his appearance, Yin Jiuqing helplessly pulled the purse from Gu Qingyu's body and threw it over to him.

Wei Chu: "..."

……

After a hasty rest for the night, they got on their horses and hurried on the road, and finally arrived at the small town in the territory of Yanjing Dynasty at dusk.

I found the only inn and ordered some dishes.

The strange thing is that although the inn is dilapidated and the place is remote, there are quite a few people inside.

But it can be seen from the clothes alone that they are poor.

It didn't take a while for their dishes to be served. Gu Qingyu brought some dishes for Yin Jiuqing, but Chongyang had already started eating.

Knowing that he can eat and gets hungry easily, no one said anything more.

Yin Jiuqing picked up a piece of meat, and before he put it in his mouth, unrepressed voices of discussion reached the eardrums.

In front of a four-corner table with peeling paint, a group of poor students in shabby clothes sat around the table, looking down and out.

There was a stack of simple pickles on the table, and a bowl of gruel was placed in front of everyone. It was more like rice soup than porridge, because there were only a few grains of rice floating in it, which was extremely simple.

They are all people with real strength, but it is a pity that they are poor and have no money to bribe the ministers of the DPRK and China, which leads to failing every time.

"Ah!" A heavy sigh suddenly sounded, and a man picked up the porridge in front of him and took a sip.

"The whole family expects me to be able to go to high school. My mother has even sold everything in the family. All her hopes are placed on me alone. It seems that I will let them down again."

As he said that, the man seemed to think of something uncomfortable, and sighed lonely, full of despair.

"But now, the emperor is young and treacherous, and the so-called imperial examinations are just an excuse for high-ranking children to become officials."

"Everyone is the same. Year after year, there is no hope of failing the rankings. It's all because the powerful ministers are covering the sky with their hands."

Then, there was another wry smile.

Listening to the discussion, Yin Jiuqing snorted softly, "Qin Muyu is becoming more and more daring now, and even dared to make such a mess in the imperial examination for the selection of talents for the court."

Seeing the fierce look on her face, no one spoke.

Presumably, what Young Master regrets most now is saving Qin Muyu.

"Bang!" A loud bang suddenly sounded, and a heroic voice resounded through the inn.

"I have made a decision. I will never give in like this. The worst is death. As long as you have a fair chance, I will kill that treacherous minister, Yin Jiuqing!"

"..." The food she brought to her mouth stopped awkwardly, and her eyes showed a moment of bewilderment.

She blinked, and looked at several people puzzled, "What did he say?"

Several people silently lowered their heads to eat, pretending not to hear her question.

Only Mr. Gu honestly stated the facts, "The traitor they are talking about is you, not Qin Muyu!"

She twitched the corners of her mouth with a half-smile, and the chopsticks in her hand broke instantly.

This rattling sound lingered in the ears of several people, and they felt extra heavy.

Gu Qingyu coughed lightly, "They misunderstood you."

"Ok?"

Several guards glanced at him in surprise, and there was a bit of unbearable taste in it.

Is it really okay for the master to speak so unconscionably?
"If a woman takes power, Yanjing will die!"

Another voice sounded, Yin Jiuqing gritted his teeth fiercely, and looked at several people with a confused and angry expression.

"Lao Tzu, that is me, is personable, well-educated, well-informed, outstanding, highly respected, high-spirited, praised by all peoples, without hesitation, righteous, awe-inspiring, unyielding in poverty, unyielding in power, open-minded, self-sacrificing, gentle, they have never heard of it. Is it?"
