Chapter 24: Lick a dog and die

The twelve years of Yongsheng.

September 18th.

Not yet.

Wenxin Study.

Gu Jinnian did not go to morning classes and slept until noon.

After several days of not sleeping, Gu Jinnian was really tired.

In the study hall.

As usual, Gu Jinnian was practicing calligraphy hard.

Maybe it was because I was too distracted, but an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

Practicing calligraphy for an hour made Gu Jinnian's wrists sore, but as the school bell rang, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't know why, but when he came to the school today, Gu Jinnian obviously found that Zhang Yun was much less hostile to him.

This made Gu Jinnian feel a little uncomfortable.

After all, I still need to rely on Zhang Yun to earn resentment.

Gu Jinnian understood very well.

The ancient trees in my mind are of great significance and must be brought out perfectly.

Let’s forget about the system.

The only thing that can bring benefits to myself at the moment is resentment.

More importantly, what this resentment brings is very helpful.

Gu Jinnian didn't really like fighting and killing, so he could just pretend to be in Kyoto, there was no need to mess around.

This means that one must arouse a lot of resentment.

But Zhang Yun is not the only choice. After all, this disgusting guy is boring, and he doesn't get much resentment at all.

You see, if you talk to the emperor, you will get a lot of resentment.

I probably won't be able to talk to Zhang Yun for ten days.

It has a lot to do with status and realm.

Thinking of this, Gu Jinnian became a little angry.

"Made, you are such a loser. He is seventeen years old and has not condensed his energy. He is still the son of a great Confucian. It is a disgrace."

Gu Jinnian put down the brush and his eyes fell on Zhang Yun, his eyes full of hatred that iron cannot be transformed into steel.

Feeling Gu Jinnian's gaze, Zhang Yun looked over and found that Gu Jinnian was looking at him, with disgust in his eyes.

Although there are wisps of resentment floating around, for the ancient tree, it is completely a drop in the bucket.

"No, we can't just stare at him."

"You have to find someone else."

Gu Jinnian thought to himself.

The resentment absorbed by the ancient tree is measured according to its realm and status.

Zhang Yun is very ordinary in both status and identity.

Although mosquitoes are still meat no matter how small they are, for Gu Jinnian who has already eaten meat, this is really boring.

Fortunately, Daxia Academy will start in a few days.

The Daxia Academy is a world-famous academy. It can be said that half of the great scholars of the Daxia Dynasty are in the Daxia Academy.

Moreover, Daxia Academy’s enrollment this time is not just for recruiting scholars.

This means that there must be Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in Daxia Academy.

It's a good place to air out your grievances.

When he thought of this, Gu Jinnian's mood improved inexplicably. Looking sideways, Yang Hanrou also put down the brush and planned to rest.

And she turned her head slightly and noticed that Gu Jinnian was looking at her.

In an instant, Yang Hanrou felt a little panicked.

Gu Jinnian did not speak, but stood up and left, heading towards Sanxiangyuan.

Looking at Gu Jinnian getting up, Yang Hanrou immediately understood something. Gu Jinnian's absence yesterday did not make her feel happy, but instead made her feel more tormented.

The main thing is fear.

As Gu Jinnian left, less than a moment later, Yang Hanrou stood up and walked outside.

"Sister Hanrou, do you want to go out?"

Seeing Yang Hanrou stand up, Zhang Yun immediately stood up and wanted to follow him.

"Some personal matters."

It was just that Yang Hanrou made a sound and then left quickly, which made Zhang Yun feel a little strange inexplicably.

But he didn't say much, but looked at Yang Hanrou after she left, and followed him silently.

About half an hour.

Inside Sanxiang Courtyard.

Gu Jinnian looked at the surface of the pond, feeling slightly calm.

At this moment, Yang Hanrou's voice sounded.

"What do you want from me?"

The voice was cold, questioning, and somewhat doubtful.

"I believe you know better than me about what's going on with you, right?"

Gu Jinnian turned around and looked at Yang Hanrou.

It has to be said that Yang Hanrou is indeed slim and graceful. Both in appearance and figure, she is considered to be first-class. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is a beauty.

But Gu Jinnian is not the kind of character who can't move when he sees a woman.

"I am not sure."

"If there is nothing else, I will leave."

Yang Hanrou was silent for a moment, and then gave this answer.

"Walk?"

"Where to go?"

"You pushed me to drown, that's all. You even took advantage of my coma and amnesia to spread rumors. Shouldn't this debt be settled?"

By the pool.

Gu Jinnian's face was cold. He looked at Yang Hanrou, his eyes were not filled with anger, but with coldness.

"You're talking nonsense."

"It was you who teased me first, and brother Zhang Yun witnessed it with his own eyes."

Hearing this, a flash of panic flashed in Yang Hanrou's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure and refused to admit it at all.

This attitude was not unexpected.

It would be strange for Yang Hanrou to admit it.

In the absence of any human or material evidence, the only way to deny it is to deny it.

"Zhang Yun witnessed it?"

"Who doesn't know that you have a very good relationship with Zhang Yun?"

Gu Jinnian spoke slowly.

"I don't have anything to say to you."

"If there is nothing else, I will leave."

Yang Hanrou ignored Gu Jinnian. The reason why she went to the appointment was just to see what Gu Jinnian would say or what substantive evidence he had.

Now that she has discovered that there is none, she is not afraid.

It's a done deal, and Gu Jinnian can't change anything.

"OK."

"Then let's go."

"As long as you leave Sanxiangyuan, I can promise that my father and grandfather will redress my injustice at all costs."

"If my father and grandfather can't do anything, my mother is Princess Ning Yue, the sister of the current Holy Emperor, and the Xia Department of Punishment has a Wen Xin Mirror. I don't believe you can dare to lie in front of the Wen Xin Mirror."

Gu Jinnian spoke up.

Word by word, Yang Hanrou looked ugly.

In the Department of Punishment of Daxia, there is an immortal object called the Questioning Mirror. This object condenses the righteousness of the Department of Punishment and is generally used to deal with really big cases. It is even said that it cannot be used even for big cases.

If you want to use this kind of thing, you need to consume the justice department's righteousness, and this righteousness is accumulated through handling cases.

Unless there is a critical moment, the Ministry of Punishment will never use the Mirror of Mind.

However, if Gu Jinnian is really crazy and regardless of the cost, the Criminal Department may really relent.

Thinking of this, Yang Hanrou's face turned ugly.

She didn't speak.

But I didn't choose to leave here.

The meaning expressed is also very clear.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

Yang Hanrou looked at Gu Jinnian and said seriously.

"Four things."

"If you promise me these three things, I won't pursue this matter."

Gu Jinnian spoke slowly.

"Those four things?"

Yang Hanrou asked.

"First of all, I don't want this matter to continue to cause trouble. I should be more careful with my words and deeds in the future."

"Secondly, when you see me in the future, don't treat me like an enemy. Address me with respect. I'm a soft-spoken person, not a tough one."

"Third, stay away from Zhang Yun. It's nothing more than simply not liking Zhang Yun."

"Fourth, give me one thousand taels of gold."

"If you can do these four things, let this matter go. If you can't, it won't be easy for you or me if this matter gets serious."

"I'm fine. To put it harshly, it's just that you're known as a playboy. As the daughter of the Minister of Rites, think about what your father will do to you, and think about what those civil servants will say about you?"

Gu Jinnian spoke up and made four demands.

He didn't want this matter to continue. Now that his uncle had given the order, the rumors in Kyoto would be somewhat restrained. Gu Jinnian was not asking Yang Hanrou to pay attention to what she said, but to ask the forces behind her to pay attention.

It is wise to reduce the impact first and then free up your hands to slowly think of solutions.

Gu Jinnian didn't like to suffer losses. This matter would have an outcome sooner or later, just not now, but that didn't mean that the other party could continue to slander.

Faced with these four requirements from Gu Jinnian.

Yang Hanrou was slightly silent.

However, Gu Jinnian's next words made Yang Hanrou even more silent.

"You don't have to pretend to be confused."

"From the first moment I saw you, I knew who you were."

"You are very smart, smarter than Zhang Yun. You look gentle and quiet. I feel pity for you, but you are definitely not that kind of simple woman. After pushing me into the water, you can immediately create rumors and reduce your own influence.

This method is not something ordinary people can do.”

"Yang Hanrou, I like to deal with smart people. The three conditions I mentioned will not have much impact on you. It will only cost you a spare tire."

"Daughter of the dignified Minister of Rites, I think your fish pond is more than just Zhang Yun, right?"

Gu Jinnian stood with his hands behind his back, speaking very calmly, but his eyes were filled with a smile, an indescribable smile, as if he could see Yang Hanrou clearly.

As for Yang Hanrou, she doesn't understand what a spare tire is, nor does she understand the meaning of a fish pond. But by combining the above and below, she can roughly understand the meaning of these words.

However, the weakness on her face was indeed gone, replaced by a complex emotion.

Of course, I am really confused.

But at this moment, a figure appeared in Sanxiangyuan.

It's Zhang Yun's figure.

Half a quarter of an hour after Yang Hanrou got up and left, Zhang Yun followed him secretly.

After a search, they found that Yang Hanrou was in Sanxiangyuan, and she was still with Gu Jinnian. She exploded in an instant and walked directly towards him with a strong momentum.

"Gu Jinnian, what do you want to do?"

"Do you want to be frivolous and frivolous with your cold sister again?"

Zhang Yun's voice was loud and filled with anger.

Since the exchange with his father, he has calmed down and doesn't want to argue with Gu Jinnian, but today he can't bear it.

Just because Gu Jinnian touched his forbidden area, he was furious.

With the arrival of Zhang Yun, grievances emerged and submerged themselves.

Looking at the furious Zhang Yun, Gu Jinnian did not speak, but looked at Yang Hanrou.

"Zhang Yun..."

"Brother Jinnian, you didn't do anything to me, don't get me wrong."

Feeling Gu Jinnian's gaze, Yang Hanrou immediately understood what he meant.

After a little delay, Yang Hanrou answered.

And the answer is very subtle.

She didn't call Zhang Yun elder brother or brother as usual, but called him by his first name. But when she called Gu Jinnian, she called him brother, which made Zhang Yun freeze on the spot.

"Sister Hanrou."

"What are you doing?"

Zhang Yun was a little confused. He looked at Yang Hanrou with disbelief in his eyes.

"Zhang Yun."

"Brother Jinnian and I were explaining the misunderstanding about drowning just now. Now that we have explained it clearly, it's nothing."

"I hope there won't be any conflicts in the future."

Yang Hanrou said expressionlessly.

She is not stupid. If she were a dignified woman like the Minister of Etiquette, it would be really funny.

There are some things that her father can't teach, but her mother can.

Gu Jinnian had already seen what kind of character Yang Hanrou was.

A very typical kind of thinking woman, men are responsible for conquering the world, and I am responsible for conquering men.

Being nice to Zhang Yun was just because she thought he was a potential stock, and because of the drowning incident, she had to find someone to share the responsibility.

Otherwise, if you really like Zhang Yun, you would have promised yourself to him long ago. But the question is, is it true?

Definitely not. If he were married, Zhang Yun really wouldn't lick it like this.

Therefore, Gu Jinnian was very satisfied with Yang Hanrou's behavior. He was not afraid of the other party's trouble, but was afraid that the other party would be brainless.

"Sister Hanrou, why are you acting like this suddenly?"

"Is this guy Gu Jinnian threatening you?"

"If so, I will take you to the dean now and let him administer justice."

For Zhang Yun, Yang Hanrou's sudden change was unacceptable, and he subconsciously thought that Gu Jinnian was causing trouble.

"Zhang Yun."

"I told you, it has nothing to do with Brother Jinnian."

"Another point is that you and I grew up together and have a good relationship. We are friends, but you are not my father. You don't need to take care of my affairs."

Yang Hanrou felt a little annoyed.

Just as Gu Jinnian guessed, the reason why she got so close to Zhang Yun was entirely because of the other person's identity and talent, but that was only because they were childhood sweethearts.

If Zhang Yun could become a great scholar in the future and have a prosperous official career, she would not mind marrying Zhang Yun, which would be a good story.

But if Zhang Yun couldn't do it, she would never touch it.

Deep down in her heart, she was very disgusted with Zhang Yun. She was extremely disgusted. She followed him behind him every day, liked to be in the limelight, and always showed off some extremely childish things in front of her.

I still have to cooperate with him.

As for things like "Shushing Chang Wen Nuan", Yang Hanrou felt even more disgusted.

It was okay once or twice, but it was really disgusting to ask for help every day.

The thing that she is most worried about right now is that the incident will be revealed and Gu Jinnian will be redressed. If she agrees to his three conditions and Gu Jinnian chooses to settle the matter, wouldn't it be a good thing for her?

As for Zhang Yun.

Ignore him or ignore him, she doesn't lack a brother.

"Sister Hanrou."

"you."

This time Zhang Yun was stunned. He didn't expect that his sister Hanrou, who had always admired and respected him, would suddenly become like this.

"Zhang Yun, I can accept calling me sister in private. In the study, you should call me by my full name."

"Brother Jinnian, my sister was at fault for what happened a few days ago. My sister took you to the Xiawang Terrace in the distance for a walk to relax your mind. This can be regarded as my apology."

For some reason, Yang Hanrou felt a little relaxed.

Release your true nature.

Of course, the most important thing is that Zhang Yun really annoys her, but she just can't express it.

Through Gu Jinnian, she just spoke her mind.

"good."

Beside the pool.

Seeing Yang Hanrou being so decisive, Gu Jinnian couldn't help but sigh, but after glancing at Zhang Yun, Gu Jinnian agreed to Yang Hanrou's request without hesitation.

Zhang Yun, on the other hand, clenched his fists tightly, feeling resentful and angry, much more than before.

Sure enough, love breeds hatred.

But Gu Jinnian didn't pity Zhang Yun at all.

Because licking a dog will lead to a bad death.

Without waiting for Zhang Yun to say anything, Yang Hanrou walked towards Wangxia Terrace to guide Gu Jinnian.

After the two people left one after another.

The hatred in Zhang Yun's eyes almost turned into flames.

"Gu Jinnian."

"you and me."

"Till death."

He was roaring in his heart.

If he hadn't been unable to defeat Gu Jinnian, he would have already taken advantage.

After a while, Zhang Yun couldn't help but have a doubt in his mind.

That's why Yang Hanrou was suddenly so cold to herself?

Did he offend Sister Hanrou somewhere?

It shouldn't be.

"Oh, sister Hanrou, I understand, you were coerced by him."

"You were afraid that Gu Jinnian would expose the matter and implicate me, so you pretended to be like this. I understand."

"I understand what you mean."

"Don't worry, I will definitely make him pay the price when he gets to Daxia Academy."

"During this period, please feel sorry for yourself."

"wait for me."

Zhang Yun clenched his fists tightly and said to himself.

He immediately wanted to understand the cause and effect, and then became even more resentful towards Gu Jinnian.
