Chapter 455: The Truth
This wronged male ghoul did not know who the noble was. His last wish was to find the noble and let him know the whole story.
A lowly commoner did not dare to take revenge.
He just wanted to let the noble know that he had made a mistake.
At that time, Xie Qiao thought this matter was not easy to handle. After all, the capital was filled with nobles and it would be really difficult to find him.
She did not expect…
Xie Qiao guessed that it should be Zhao Xuzhi. After all, the matter matched with the time.
“What’s this?” Qin Liu looked puzzled.
“This is… Something to record the wishes of others,” Xie Qiao closed the book, “It’s used by Taoist masters.”
Qin Liu knew that Xie Qiao was very familiar with the matters of yin and yang. She thought for a while and asked, “Is it related to Zhao Xuzhi?”
Xie Qiao nodded, “Yes, it’s the story that you just told. The man in the story was actually the one who got hurt. Because of Zhao Xuzhi’s involvement, the man was imprisoned for a month. After he was released, his son died and his wife hid. He also had to be criticized by others. He was in extreme pain.”
He was in so much pain that he could not die in peace.
Qin Liu was very surprised, “It can’t be? Didn’t Zhao Xuzhi investigate before he did that?”
She had only heard the rumors, so she naturally thought that the man who bullied the woman was a bad person.
“With his status, it’s naturally very easy for him to find out about this small matter, but what if he didn’t want to investigate at all?” Xie Qiao smiled, “Finding out the truth isn’t something that can be done in a short time. If he immediately dealt with that man, he would receive everyone’s praise, so he chose the latter.”
Xie Qiao’s words definitely did not malign him.
That ghoul had also said that he had explained to that nobleman at that time.
However, that nobleman said, “Regardless of the reason, it is wrong for you to humiliate a woman like this.”
With just that sentence, it was unknown how many women would fall in love with him.
It also made that man’s explanation become weak.
“That man is too pitiful,” The light in Qin Liu’s eyes instantly disappeared, “You’ve no idea that many people say that he’s a rare good man because of this matter. Many women in the capital wish to marry him. I didn’t expect him to be terrible.”
Qin Liu felt she had been deceived.
It was because she had already matured, her family would consider arranging a marriage for her.
Naturally, they had to look for a man in the capital.
Although they came to the academy to attend classes, they were still a distance away from the men’s academy. Therefore, their impression of men depended on the words of others.
“I originally thought that it would be great if he could be our teacher. Now…” Qin Liu quickly put her palms together, “God bless me. I still prefer that old master with the long beard.”
Xie Qiao smiled.
“He just came to the academy and he’s a man. He should be teaching at the Begonia Courtyard for men. In the future, he will be promoted according to his ability, right?” Xie Qiao said.
However, as soon as she said that, a young lady rushed in. She looked excited and tried to suppress her emotions. She said in a low and shy voice, “Zhao Xuzhi is our teacher in the Orchid Courtyard!”
Xie Qiao looked up in confusion.
What she was worried of really came true.
However, Zhao Xuzhi’s age and identity were indeed not suitable for the women’s academy. Why…
“Do we have calligraphy or painting class in the afternoon?” Xie Qiao asked.
“No, but the new teacher has to greet us. We will definitely see him in a while,” Qin Liu no longer felt surprised.
Would it just be a self-introduction?
Xie Qiao was not afraid. She was confident… Mo Chusheng’s disguise was flawless. Unless he had a pair of eyes that he saw through things, even if her father was here, he would not be able to recognize her!
