Words:975Update:23/04/05 10:36:02
The news of Chu Yang's reappearance in Taijing City swept across the entire city like a gust of wind. It made the already bustling Taijing City even noisier, as if it could soar to the Ninth Heaven by riding on the hustle and bustle.
This description was not an exaggeration. Chu Yang's appearance was like a man-made fire that ignited the raging fire in the hearts of the people of Taijing City. It also pushed the flames of gossip to unprecedented heights.
Huangfu Xuan, Wang Lingyun, Xie Xiubo, Wu Ce, Chen Buqun, and Shangguan Can, the Six Great Young Masters of Taijing City, had the same reaction when they heard this news.
"This country bumpkin, this country bumpkin, this pile of shit really didn't die!"
They were not very surprised, as if they had already expected this.
"If he didn't die, it will be more troublesome to deal with him later!"
"Country bumpkin, let's compete in the imperial examination. I want to see how capable you are."
The reaction of these six people was much worse. For example, Shangguan Can was probably the only one who wanted to compete with Chu Yang. He wanted to determine the winner and the loser. The other five people also had the same mentality. However, they would resort to unscrupulous means to achieve victory.
Simply put, there was a very important question in tomorrow's imperial examination, and it was already in the hands of the six people. Shangguan Can directly threw it away, but the other five people did not do the same.
Wang Lingyun and the others did not feel that this would defeat their self-confidence. Chu Yang's talent in literature was his advantage, and their power was their advantage.
Talent was only one kind of advantage, but so was power and birth. For Wang Lingyun, Xie Xiubo, and the others, everything was like this. It was just that many people did not understand this logic, and could not accept it.
Their thoughts could be roughly understood like this: Why were some people born with more talent, and some people born with more noble birth? Because it was bestowed by the heavens. The heavens gave Chu Yang talent, but gave them power and birth.
They could not find a reason not to use their advantages.
Among the five people, Huangfu Xuan's "feelings" for Chu Yang were many times stronger than the others.
As for how "strong" these feelings were, it was clear after thinking about it.
Eat, sleep, beat Doudou!
Study, practice martial arts, assassinate Huangfu!
This was one of them. Huangfu Xuan was also very angry — because of Chu Yang, he had been "beaten up" by Wang Lingyun and the others, and had been completely "blacklisted" by Shangguan Lan.
Huangfu Xuan no longer had any hope of winning the beauty. He only wanted to make Chu Yang, this country bumpkin, regret being born.
Therefore, when he heard the news that Chu Yang was still alive, he had practically turned into a madman, randomly smashing things to vent his anger. It was to the extent that the sound of smashing things could be heard outside the Qi Manor.
It was said that there were a few unlucky bastards in the Qi Manor who went to see the King of Hell to reason with him.
Huangfu Xuan knew all of this very well. He also knew what he was doing. There was no need for him to hide his anger and resentment. So what if he was venting? So what if he killed someone?
He did not need to care!
At this moment, what he needed to care about was that question. In tomorrow's Imperial Examinations, he had to answer better than Wang Lingyun and the others, better than Chu Yang.
That was enough. He did not need to be the best, he only needed to be better than the others.
Of course, this was only the first step. However, only after defeating Chu Yang in the first step and making Chu Yang feel deeply uneasy would his revenge be more effective.
Huangfu Xuan's mind was very clear, extremely clear — this Imperial Examinations was a very good opportunity to wash away his stain. As long as he took first place in one fell swoop, he would be able to cover up everything else.
The Six Great Young Masters of Taijing knew that Chu Yang was not dead. Shangguan Lan naturally knew as well, and so did the parrot.
