Chapter 96: The Truth of Cowardice

Zhao Rui thought about this and was about to go out, but suddenly she remembered that Yu Ren was still lying on the bed, so she stopped again.

"Don't worry! I'm fine. You go and find out what's important about Brother Yang first. It can be regarded as helping me settle a worry."

Zhao Rui thought for a while, "I'll just let Yun'er handle this. It's just a small matter of finding a boatman. I'll just ask her to bring the boatman here."

"Still..." Yu Ren didn't wait to say anything. In fact, he felt that Zhao Rui took care of him in such a shabby way, which made him feel uncomfortable. He is a person who doesn't like to be favored by others, and now Zhao Rui treats him like this. It makes him feel uncomfortable.

In my heart, I felt more and more that I owed Zhao Rui too much.

"No need to say anything. This matter is settled." Zhao Rui said, calling a little maid and asking her to call Yun'er.

After Yun'er arrived, she listened to the task assigned to her by Zhao Rui and went to do it without saying a word.

When it was time to have dinner, Yun'er came back. The captain was indeed found. Yun'er took the captain to Tingyuxuan.

The captain is an old man in his fifties or sixties, not tall.

"Miss, Mr. Hu was the owner of the boat that day. He was also on the boat when Mr. Yang boarded the boat."

Zhao Rui nodded but said nothing. Obviously, she wanted to leave the inquiry to Yu Ren. Yu Ren naturally understood her intention.

"Hu Gong, don't be nervous. We just want to ask you a few questions. After we finish asking, we will send you back immediately." Yu Ren saw that the little old man's legs were trembling as soon as he entered the door, and knew that he must be too nervous.

However, this is normal. A person of his status must have never entered such a large manor.

The old man nodded.

"I don't know, Mr. Hu, do you know Mr. Yang Ju and Yang Xianggong?"

The old man nodded. "Ms. Yang is famous throughout the city of Hangzhou. I am lucky enough to have met him once or twice."

"So, can you tell us what happened that day when Mr. Yang was invited to your ship by a young man named Li?"

Old Man Hu lowered his head and thought, "That day should be the first day of the match between Donglin and Wansong. I also went to Wushan Square to watch it. Seeing that Mr. Yang lost, we were all very sorry. After watching the match, I hurried

Back to the lake. Not long after, the princes from Wansong Academy came to celebrate on the lake and chartered my boat.

Although I don't like these people, traders cannot choose customers based on their own likes and dislikes. So, I took the business."

When Yu Ren heard this, he interrupted and asked, "Have all the five people from Wansong Academy participated in the competition gone?"

"They are all here. In addition, there are three or four husbands who did not participate in the competition. They chartered my boat and set off from Yongjin Gate. They played on the island in the middle of the lake for a while and prepared to go ashore at Qiantang Gate. But they met Yang Xianggong.

The man surnamed Tang asked people to invite Xianggong Yang to board the boat.

Originally, Xianggong Yang did not intend to get on the boat. But the person who came out to invite him said that Xianggong Tang was also on the boat, so Xianggong Yang came.

After Mr. Yang got on the boat, they asked me to sail the boat to the island in the middle of the lake. When everyone got on the island, I followed quietly because I was worried that they would make things difficult for Mr. Yang.

There were not many tourists on the island in the middle of the lake that day. As soon as a few people came to the island, Tang Xianggong said to Yang Xianggong: "There will be a sword competition tomorrow. I wonder how Brother Zhiyong's sword practice is going? A martial arts competition is different from writing poems and fighting."

Tea. If you lose, you will lose your life if you make trouble!'

Yang Xianggong smiled softly, 'Brother Mingyuan is exaggerating! Tomorrow's competition will not use real swords, but just a few pieces of wood, how can it hurt people's lives.'

When Tang Xianggong heard this, he laughed loudly, "Brother Zhiyong is too ignorant! As a true swordsman, even if he holds a wooden sword in his hand, he can still fight tigers in the mountains and slay dragons in the abyss." After saying this,

, Tang Xianggong said to the man named Li Qi who was following them, "Brother Qi, why don't you let us open our eyes today."

Li Qi didn't say much. He just took out his dagger, chopped a branch on the roadside, and whittled it a few times.

'Go and bring my general here.' Master Li on the side ordered when he saw Li Qi making the wooden sword. Immediately, someone got on the boat and led a big dog they had brought with them.

When I saw them leading such a vicious dog to the island, I thought they were going to use this vicious dog to deal with Mr. Yang, which made me worried.

However, when they led the dog to the island, they did not let it bite Yang Xianggong, but led it to Li Qi.

Li Qi looked at the big dog in front of him, holding the wooden sword in his hand, and shouted "Hi!". Then he saw his sword thrust forward sharply, and pierced the big dog's neck. Blood immediately flowed out.

Then it flowed out along the wooden sword. The big dog, which was about half a man tall, struggled a few times and finally fell to the ground, but it still couldn't let out a cry.

At that time, the onlookers all exclaimed in exclamation. Countless voices of praise immediately came out. Yang Xianggong was also stunned at that time. When Tang Zhe and others were about to sail back, Yang Xianggong still stood there blankly.

It was I who walked over and helped him onto the boat.

Later, the boat docked, Tang Zhe and the others paid the fare and left. Yang Xianggong also got off the boat. What happened next, I don’t know."

After listening to Old Man Hu's words, everyone finally understood the whole story. They also finally knew why Yang Ju got so drunk the night before the competition. Apparently, he lost his mind because he saw the scene of Li Qimu killing a dog with his sword.

The courage to compete.

However, he knew very well the consequences of not participating in the competition. In the conflict, Yang Ju was in pain and had to drink to drown his sorrows.

When the game ended, although the Donglin Party did not lose, Wansong Academy did not lose either. However, Yang Ju lost. When he finally could not overcome the fear of death and escaped from the game in a drunken manner, he knew that he

I lost, completely and cleanly.

After Old Man Hu left, Yun'er also retreated. Only Zhao Rui and Yu Ren were left in the room. They didn't speak for a while. And Zhao Rui's mood was much more complicated than Yu Ren's. Yu Ren just sighed,

Yang Ju, the good Donglin Junyan, was ruined in this way.

But Zhao Rui was lamenting her fate. In the past, her senior brother and fiancé was a young talent that everyone admired, but from now on he would become an alcoholic. More importantly, because Yang Ju was

His performance in skipping this competition made his reputation very bad.

Although he was not unable to take the scientific examination because of the failure of this bet, due to his reputation as a coward and a coward, he will never have the chance to go to high school again. No one likes a coward, even if your article says

No matter how good it is, not only Tang Zhe knows this, but Zhao Rui also knows it.

Yang Ju's matter was finally found out. However, this did not help Yang Ju to cheer up again. Although Yu Ren wanted to help Yang Ju, he could not think of any good ideas for the moment. And Li Ying herself

After the rockery incident that day, I never came to Lizhuang again.

Yu Ren recuperated in Lizhuang for another six or seven days. The wound on his lower abdomen was completely healed. But the scar was still there. After lying in bed for so many days, Yu Ren was really suffocated to death. Although Zhao Rui every day

He rushed over at dawn to chat with him to relieve his boredom, and didn't go back until late at night. But Yu Ren still felt that the time was too difficult.

Yu Ren couldn't help but sigh again, how sad this boring time was in the era without computers and televisions!

Finally, Dr. An came to see Yu Ren's wound today and said, "Now if you want to get out of bed, you can get out of bed and move around a little bit. But it's best to be supported by someone, and don't use force to avoid breaking it."

Wound.

After hearing what Dr. An said, Yu Ren was even happier than eating ginseng fruit. Before Dr. An could finish his words, Yu Ren couldn't help but throw away the quilt and wanted to get up. This scared Dr. An beside him.

One jump.

"Mr. Yu, be careful. Although you can get out of bed and move around a bit, you must not treat it as normal. You must move slowly and be very careful. You must not touch wounds, do not use excessive force, and do not bend down or squat down.…

..." Dr. An gave a lot of instructions one after another.

Yu Ren nodded repeatedly, but in fact he didn't hear a few words in his heart. But Zhao Rui on the side remembered every item seriously.

After Dr. An left, Yu Ren was about to get out of bed. Although Zhao Rui repeatedly advised him to rest for two more days before getting out of bed, he didn't listen. At this time, a maid outside came to report that it was Lu Xiangsheng.

.

When Yu Ren heard that Lu Xiangsheng was coming, he no longer ignored Zhao Rui's dissuasion and lifted the quilt to get out of bed. Seeing that he had no choice, Zhao Rui hurriedly came over to support him and asked Yun'er to bring the newly made robe by the bedside.
