Chapter 1105: Emperor Xia’s Showdown
Outside the courtyard.
There were more than a hundred scholars and disciples gathered together. These people were the core of the Changtian Academy. The leading scholar was called Qian Siwen. Although he was not the Deputy Dean, he had great prestige in the Academy and was well-known among the scholars in the capital. He was deeply supported by them.
” Get lost!” He glared at Jun Hou. There seemed to be an invisible flame burning behind him. He pointed at Jun Hou angrily.
Dozens of prefectural soldiers blocked the front and surrounded them. They pointed their black sabers at them. Under the sunlight, the cold light flickered, and the murderous aura was threatening. The blade was especially terrifying.
Qian Siwen acted as if he didn’t see it. He didn’t show any fear. Instead of retreating, he advanced towards the prefecture soldiers arrogantly.” Kill me if you have the guts!”
Jun Hou hesitated, not knowing whether to kill him or not. The soldiers at the side looked over subconsciously, waiting for orders. With this delay, Qian Siwen had already pushed the knife forward. The Confucian scholars and disciples behind him knew what was going on. The soldiers were afraid and didn’t dare to move. It made sense. They were scholars and the imperial examination was imminent. If they were to kill him now, no one would be able to bear the consequences.
The prefecture soldiers were scared, but everyone’s confidence was boosted. They were full of energy, as if the small universe in their bodies had exploded. They wanted to show off. They followed behind Qian Siwen and pressed forward, shouting and cursing even more fiercely.
Some people who did not know the immensity of heaven and earth still wanted to attack the prefecture soldiers.
Jun Hou didn’t know if he was going to be ruthless. With every step they took, they would take a step back. Seeing that they were about to reach the gate, they would disturb the Marquis if they continued to retreat. With a ferocious expression, he shouted,” Get into formation!”
Clang! Clang!
The black saber was pulled back, and a low humming sound was heard. This was the beginning of the prefecture soldiers ‘attack. Their aura changed, and they became cold and murderous. Their eyes were cold, like stones without any emotion. A terrifying and ferocious might spread out, scaring the group of people to immediately stop. They were afraid that they would really dare to kill them.
“If you dare to move again, I’ll kill you!” the military marquis said coldly.
Qian Siwen wasn’t scared. He continued to provoke him and pointed at his head.” If you have the guts, chop it off!”
His footsteps did not stop as he closed in again.
Everyone looked over. It was difficult for the military marquis to get off the tiger. Killing him was easy. One slash could send him on his way. What would the consequences be? If he implicated the Marquis, he would die a thousand deaths!
Qian Siwen had won. He stopped half an arm away. Saliva flew everywhere as he arrogantly shouted,” Scram!”
“Get lost!”
The crowd was agitated and shouted at the top of their lungs. After figuring out the strength of the prefecture soldiers, they no longer had any scruples and charged forward crazily.
Boom!
A terrifying explosion sounded between heaven and earth. It was like a thunderous roar that sounded in everyone’s ears. Caught off guard, their legs went weak and they fell to the ground.
The soldiers parted, and Zhang Ronghua walked over with his men.
Upon seeing him appear, the noisy scene fell silent. One could even hear a pin drop on the ground. Looking at the four people who were being detained behind him, other than Gao Qiangwen, they had all been arrested.
He was furious and quickly got up. Due to Zhang Ronghua’s silver might, he wanted to find out the truth before making a move.
“This humble servant is useless. Please punish me, Lord Marquis!”
“Watch carefully,” Zhang Ronghua said expressionlessly.
“Yes!”
“What did you say just now?” Zhang Ronghua asked as he looked at Qian Si. I didn’t hear you clearly. Say it again!”
The former was also afraid.
The person in front of him was a new rising star in the capital, famous for his “killing god”. From the moment he stepped into the Hall of Scholars, countless officials had fallen at his hands, especially the Ministry of Works and Imperial Censorate. They had almost been crippled, but he endured his fear. He was a great scholar, famous throughout the capital and even in Great Xia. He also had many students who were officials. So what if he was the Marquis of Nancheng? He could even kill him? Thinking of this, he was fearless.” This old man’s head is here. Kill me if you dare!”
“Give me the knife,” Zhang Ronghua said.
The military marquis hurriedly handed the black saber over.
Everyone’s hearts were in their throats. Looking at this scene, they wanted to see if the Marquis of Nancheng would dare!
Qian Siwen’s breathing became heavier. His eyes widened as he stared at the knife in his hand.
“I’ve never heard of such a request!” But… Very helpful.”
Shua!
A cold light flashed, and a bloody light shot into the sky. A head fell to the ground. The headless corpse remained standing on the spot under the effect of inertia. After a few breaths, it lost its balance and fell to the ground.
“Do you know how to do it?” Zhang Ronghua asked as he tossed the black saber to the military marquis.
“I’ve learned it!”
” Kill them all!” Zhang Ronghua said with his hands behind his back.” Kill all those who attacked the prefecture soldiers!”
It was the Academy’s turn to panic.
” You killed the innocent and ignored the laws of the imperial court. Are you trying to rebel?” a scholar threatened.
The military marquis stepped forward and met his terrified gaze. He slashed down with his black saber and killed him.
Then there were the others, a total of fifteen people. No one could escape and was killed on the spot. The remaining people were so scared that they trembled and wanted to find a rat hole to hide, not daring to let out a fart. Nôv(el)B\\jnn
” The Changtian Academy attacked the officials of the imperial court and the soldiers of the prefecture. Capture them all and imprison them!” Zhang Ronghua ordered ruthlessly.
“Yes!” The military marquis accepted the order.
With a wave of his hand, a group of subordinates rushed forward like wolves and tigers. They captured these people and took out ropes to tie their feet together to prevent them from escaping.
He looked at Ding Yi.
“Bring people to arrest five families. Don’t let anyone go. Consume all their property!” Zhang Ronghua ordered.
Ding Yi brought some people and left quickly.
Disdain was written all over his face. He wanted to see who would dare to jump out again from the three academies, including the small and medium-sized academies in the capital!
