"Think about it! On the surface, our competition with Wansong Academy is only related to both of us. In fact, it is not the case. Don't forget that we made this bet with Tang Zhe because of some dispute over something.

We finally made this bet because we had completely different opinions on how the imperial court should deal with the newly defeated Li Rubai in Liaodong!

Then, if we win this game, the scholars in the world will think that our suggestion to severely punish Li Rubai is right. On the contrary, the scholars in the world will definitely say that it was Tang Che who proposed it and should be treated leniently.

The Li family's method is relatively correct.

I didn't know the identity of Li Xianzhong at first. Later, I heard from Brother Yu that he was the young master of the Li family in Liaodong, so it became easy to understand. Recently, I found out through friends that this Li Xianzhong was the young master who lost the war.

The eldest son of Li Rubai.

So, it stands to reason that if his father is defeated this time, he should rush home as soon as possible to prepare for the unexpected.

So Li Xianzhong is still staying in Hangzhou, obviously to ensure the victory of this martial arts competition. It is for this purpose that he secretly instigated his men to do this. Although Tang Che is his good friend, he has nothing to do with his father's safety.

In comparison, he would naturally choose the latter.

In this way, Li Xianzhong will not be afraid that we cancel the game, but he hopes that this is the best for us. As long as we cancel the game, they will have something to say, and the public opinion in the world will definitely be beneficial to their Li family."

"That's it!" Fatty Xu suddenly realized. Yu Ren didn't say anything. Although he agreed with Yang Ju's analysis, he still had some doubts about the poisoning of the Wu brothers. Because he always felt that the words of the Wu family manager just now were a little bit...

Untrue.

"I feel uncomfortable in my stomach. Let's go out for a while." Yu Ren said, opened the door and walked out.

Not long after he went out, Yu Ren saw that no one in the room paid attention to him, so he quietly turned around and went to the kitchen.

In the yard, Yu Ren met a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old, who was cleaning the yard. Yu Ren hurriedly walked over. With a smile on his face, he said to the little girl, "Little girl, I am the second young master's new hire."

The book boy is here. The two gentlemen have guests tonight and asked me to go to the kitchen and tell them to make a few bowls of lotus seed soup. I don’t know how to get to the kitchen?"

The little girl glared at Yu Ren, "What little girl? She is already nineteen!"

Yu Ren was shocked and looked carefully. Sure enough, although the little girl in front of him was short, her face was not immature. Yu Ren hurriedly said: "Ah! I'm so sorry. Sister, I am blind.

So, let me ask my sister, which direction is the kitchen?"

The old girl nodded with satisfaction, then pointed to the southwest. "Go there, go through a door, then turn to the right and you'll be there."

Yu Ren thanked him profusely and hurried away.

Before entering the kitchen, Yu Ren did not smell the smell of medicine, but first smelled the aroma of stewed pig's trotters. Yu Ren sniffed his nose and stepped into the kitchen.

In the kitchen, I saw a fat man in his forties or fifties squatting in front of a small stove, fanning the fire, and gnawing on a half-eaten pig's trotter in his hand.

Yu Ren coughed, and the fat man was startled, and quickly hid the pig's trotters behind his back. Seeing that he was a stranger, the fat man became a little confused.

"Who are you?"

"Ah! I am the pedagogue newly hired by the second young master. My name is Zhu Yue. Just call me Xiao Zhu. The two young masters have guests tonight. Let me tell you to make a few bowls of lotus seed soup."

When the fat man heard that he was the second young master's book boy, a smile appeared on his face. "It turns out to be Brother Zhu. It's rare for you to condescend to come to a place like ours. Sit down for a moment and I'll get you some first."

Delicious.”

Yu Ren deliberately approached the small stove where pig trotters were stewed and smelled it. "It smells so good! By the way, are you two gentlemen's dinner ready?"

The fat man came over with a charming smile on his face, "You mean a midnight snack! Isn't this the stewed pig's trotters!" After saying that, he filled a bowl and handed it to Yu Ren. "Brother Zhu

Try it too!”

Yu Ren glanced at the fat man and said, "This is not good! I think the taste of the two gentlemen tonight is good. If they don't have enough food for a while, it will be bad."

The fat man said confidently, "Don't worry. The dishes I cooked tonight are particularly suitable for the taste of the young men. The two young men each ate two large bowls and a large piece of roasted lamb leg. I guess this late night snack will

I may not eat it. I just prepared it just in case."

After hearing this, Yu Ren felt secretly happy. He turned around and looked around, but saw no medicine packets and no traces of boiled medicine. Yu Ren finally determined that the Wu brothers were pretending to be sick.

If he was really poisoned, why was there no decoction in the kitchen, let alone two large bowls of rice for each person in the evening, plus a large piece of roasted lamb leg!

After receiving this important information, Yu Ren exchanged a few perfunctory words with the fat man in the kitchen, then turned around and hurried back.

Back in the room, everyone was still sitting on the bedside, comforting the Wu brothers! Wu Ying just paid it back. He was probably tired of dealing with these people, so he pretended to close his eyes and fall asleep. But Wu Peng was still there all the time.

He made an impassioned speech in front of everyone, as if even if he had to climb, he must climb to the competition field tomorrow. Instead, Yang Ju kept trying to persuade him not to go tomorrow. He would think of another way to deal with the competition. But the more he persuaded Wu Peng,

It gets more exciting.

Yu Ren came to Wu Peng's bed and saw that he was still pretending to claim that he would go to the competition tomorrow even if he had to be carried.

Yang Ju wanted to persuade him again, but was stopped by Yu Ren. "Since Brother Wu insists, it's settled! We will meet at the arena tomorrow. Brother Yang, a gentleman takes advantage of others' beauty. Since Brother Wu wants to be a trustworthy person, we will do it."

How can we not fulfill my friend's wish?" After saying that, Yu Ren picked up Yang Ju and walked out.

When Wu Peng heard this, his mouth opened in surprise and he could no longer close it.

Walking to the door, Yu Ren suddenly turned his head and said to Wu Peng on the bed, "Brother Wu, remember not to eat too much roasted lamb leg tomorrow, otherwise it will not be digested!"

After saying that, he ignored Wu Peng, who had his eyes widened in surprise, and forced Yang Ju out of the Wu Mansion. Seeing that the two protagonists, Yu Ren and Yang Ju, had left, the others naturally left one after another.

Yang Ju knew that Yu Ren must have discovered something. So, as soon as he left Wu Mansion, Yang Ju quickly grabbed Yu Ren and asked, "What's going on?"

"Haven't you seen it yet? The two brothers named Wu are not sick at all. They are all lying." Yu Ren said loudly when he saw that everyone had come out.

"What? Why?" someone asked.

When Fatty Xu heard this, he couldn't help but get angry. "No need to ask, it must be because they are afraid of losing and pretending to be sick! Fortunately, they have the nerve to say it so beautifully."

"It doesn't matter! Didn't Wu Peng say that the two brothers must go to the competition tomorrow? Let's just wait and see how they do tomorrow! If they pretend to be sick again then, then we will expose them on the spot and make them greatly embarrassed.

No!" Yu Ren said.

"Isn't it a little bad to do this?" Miss Zhao said. Although she came with him this time, she almost always sat with him. It was only then that she heard her express her opinion.

Yang Ju's frown deepened. After a while, he seemed to have made up his mind and said to everyone, "I think I will edit a letter and send it to the Wu Mansion later so that their brothers don't have to go tomorrow. That's right.

The so-called twisted melon is not sweet.

Since they are pretending to be sick, even if we expose them, it will not do us any good. It will just add an enemy to the Donglin disciples! I said at the beginning that we are completely voluntary. We can participate voluntarily, and naturally we can withdraw voluntarily.

"

"However, the two brothers surnamed Wu are too hateful. They don't want to take on any trouble, but they still want to make a name for themselves. All these good things have been taken over by their brothers. If we expose them, we are just letting everyone see

That’s just the truth of the matter! Besides, wouldn’t it be nice to let everyone see how their brothers are hypocrites so that no one will be fooled again in the future!” Fatty Xu shouted.

"Forget it. Brother Xu, why bother? It is said that it is better to resolve enemies than to end them. Since their brothers have made up their minds and are not going to help us, then we can do it ourselves! Why do we have to embarrass them again? Forget it.

Come on! Forget it!" Yang Ju seemed to be speaking to them, but also to himself.

After saying that, Yang Ju sighed and walked away alone!

"What do you think? Boss, I listen to you." Looking at the back of Yang Caizi who had gone away, Fatty Xu turned to ask Yu Ren.

Yu Ren also sighed. He really admired this Yang Ju now. Although he looked ugly, he was a talented man with real talent. And Yang Ju's performance tonight made Yu Ren see him again.

Extraordinary mind. Yu Ren knew that if he was tricked like this, he would never remain silent like this.

"Let's go! Everything depends on Mr. Yang's orders. Don't forget, we are just here to help!" After saying this, Yu Ren followed everyone and left!

Miss Zhao on the side heard Yu Ren's last words and realized the dissatisfaction in his words, so she quickly answered. "Brother Yu, don't be blind. This is how my senior brother is. He obviously sees others playing tricks."
