Chapter 69: Tyrannical and Overbearing, Bullying with Impunity

  His face is ugly, but what's worse is that his voice is so unpleasant to listen to. The sharpness in it has a hint of softness, making one feel like something is stuck in the throat of a male duck, causing extreme discomfort upon hearing it.

  Jiang Xia did not expect that coming to Guozi Jian, he would actually run into an acquaintance. However, if he had a choice, it would be better to avoid such "acquaintances". The person standing in front of him was none other than the third son of the Marquis of Moyang's household, Liu Qingyun.

  As soon as he saw Jiang Xia's gaze, he couldn't help but glance down at him, and unexpectedly Liu Qingyun was extremely sensitive about that area. Jiang Xia had originally just taken a subtle look, but Liu Qingyun suddenly jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on and loudly shouted: "Ah, I knew it! I knew it! Was it you who brought that cow? Is it your fault that I became a...?"

  "What's that?" Jiang Xia pretended to be stupid and said, "What cow is this? What did I bring? Young master, what are you talking about?"

  "What did you say?" Liu Qingyun sneered twice, nodding his head and saying: "Alright, you want to pretend to be stupid? Don't worry, I'll make you admit it. Since you've already come to Guozijian, I have plenty of time to slowly play with you, just wait for me!"

  After finishing speaking, Liu Qingyun was about to leave when Jiang Xia suddenly called out: "Hey."

  Lau Ching-yuen stopped in his tracks. Kong Ha and Tse On walked up to him, smiling and asked: "What are you making me wait for?"

  "Hmph!" Liu Qingyun coldly snorted: "Just wait till I find someone to kill you!"

  "Oh." Jiang Xia nodded slightly and said, "They say a gentleman takes ten years to avenge himself, but I don't think I have such good patience. Ten years is too long, I'll settle it in the morning."

  "Bang!" Liu Qingyun was stunned.

  The students who came in from the Ji Xian Gate were also stunned. Who didn't know the third son of the Mu Yang Hou family in the entire Guo Zi Jian? But he was actually... slapped in the face?

  Liu Qingyun was also stunned for two seconds before reacting, the burning pain on his face wasn't that bad, but what really made Liu Qingyun want to go crazy was losing face in front of so many people.

  Lau Ching-yuen shouted loudly: "You dare hit me, I..."

  "Slap!" Liu Qingyun was slapped again by Jiang Xia.

  "Bring it on... boom boom boom."

  Jiang Xia waved his hand in a circular motion, first clockwise and then counterclockwise.

  Lau Ching-wan was thoroughly stunned, and the surrounding onlookers finally understood that this tall and handsome guy with an innocent face was a ruthless character, a truly ruthless character.

  One after another, Jiang Xia had slapped him several times and his hand was starting to ache. He calmly asked Liu Qingyun: "How's that? Are you still thinking of finding me for more practice? You're not good enough now, I advise you to go find some people to accompany you first before coming back to me, go ahead."

  Jiang Xia was shooing Liu Qingyun away like a fly, and Liu Qingyun stomped his foot heavily and said viciously: "Fine, fine, you just wait for me!"

  After finishing speaking, Liu Qingyun actually ran out of Jixian Gate.

  Watching Liu Qingyun's receding back, Jiang Xia shook his head and muttered to himself: "Playing hooky, not a good student."

  After finishing speaking, Jiang Xia swept a glance at the surrounding onlookers, and this one glance suddenly scared the crowd. Jiang Xia casually pointed to one of them, stretched out his right hand and hooked his index finger, and that person, although somewhat afraid, walked towards Jiang Xia as if his body was not under his control.

  Jiang Xia patted the man's shoulder and asked with a smile: "Fellow student, what should I call you?"

  "Liu... Liu is infatuated."

  "Oh, Liu classmate." Jiang Xia nodded and stretched out his right hand with a smile, saying: "I'm Jiang Xia, please take care of me from now on."

  Liu was taken aback for a moment, he didn't know what Jiang Xia meant by stretching out his hand. Jiang Xia then grabbed Liu's hand and shook it twice before letting go, after which Liu's whole hand was trembling.

  Jiang Xia took out the letter of recommendation written by Guan Gui and asked Liu Chenmi: "Brother Liu, today is my first day reporting for duty. May I ask where should I go to find Master Siye?"

  "Oh, Master Shiye is in the Doctor's Hall. You go from the Rate Nature Hall to the Sincerity Hall, after passing by the Sincerity Hall you can see the Yi Lun Hall, and next to the Yi Lun Hall is the Doctor's Hall."

  Liu Chenmi said a lot, but Jiang Xia just smiled and looked at him without responding. Liu Chenmi sighed and said, "Forget it, I'll take you there myself."

  "Then thank you, Brother Liu." Jiang Xia said excitedly.

  Under Liu Chenmi's lead, Jiang Xia walked all the way into Guozijian. The Guozijian was divided into three courtyards, with the first courtyard being the Jixian Gate, and the second courtyard being from the Taixue Gate to the Yilun Hall. As Liu Chenmi said, the Doctor's Hall was next to the Yilun Hall.

  "It's right here." Liu said, pointing at the sign on the door of the doctoral building.

  Jiang Xia nodded and smiled: "Then thank you, Liu. I'll treat you to dinner another day."

  "It's...it doesn't matter." Liu said, and then he quickly left as if in a daze.

  Looking at Liu's receding back, Jiang Xia sighed and said: "The students of Guozi Jian are really different, they are very enthusiastic in class." In fact, he had no idea that the other party did not want to get too close to him, so as not to be misunderstood by others that they were familiar with each other, and when Liu Qingyun came to take revenge, he would also be implicated.

  Jiang Xia walked to the entrance of the doctoral hall, where the door was open. Inside, several teachers were seated, naturally with the title of "doctor", but for convenience, they would be referred to as teachers from now on. These teachers were all chatting happily and no one noticed Jiang Xia. After knocking on the door, Jiang Xia asked: "Excuse me, is Dean Sir here?"

  No one paid attention, and everyone continued discussing their own topics.

  Jiang Xia asked again: "Excuse me, is Sir Siye in?"

  Still nobody cares.

  Jiang Xia took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "Excuse me... Sir Shiyè... are you in or not?!"

  "Where did this student come from, and how dare he be so rude?"

  "Really? Which department's student are you?"

  "Reporting to all the teachers, I am student Jiang Xia. I just arrived today." To those teachers who scolded him, Jiang Xia seemed not to have heard them, and he smiled as he bowed to everyone.

  "Was it just now that the student reported? Is it a tribute or an example?" one of the teachers asked.

  Jiang Xia replied: "It's Yin Jian, Master asked me to bring a letter of recommendation from General Shang."

  "Jing... Jing Shangshu?" The crowd of teachers were startled, and one of them couldn't help but ask: "Then who is your master?"

  "When dawn breaks, I will be Li Dongyang." Jiang Xia replied proudly.

  "Bang bang bang......" Several teachers' books fell to the ground, and for a moment, the doctoral hall was silent.

  "Excuse me, esteemed teachers," Jiang Xia asked again, "where is Sir Siye?"

  "The principal is taking a nap in the room." A teacher pointed to a room next door.

  Jiang Xia nodded: "Thank you, teacher."

  Walking up to the door of that room, Jiang Xia knocked on it forcefully. A very impatient voice came from inside: "Come in."

  Jiang Xia walked in, and after about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Dean Li Chunfeng personally escorted Jiang Xia out. At the same time, he specially instructed Dr. Wang Ruhai, a doctor from the Imperial Academy, to take Jiang Xia to the Imperial Academy.

  To know that the doctor of Guozixue in Guozijian has only five people, each with a rank of Zhengwu Pin, mainly teaches the children and grandchildren of officials above Sanpin and national dukes, as well as the great-grandchildren of officials above Erpin. Jiangxia got Wang Ruhai to lead him personally, and he entered the Guozixue Hall, which has already proved that his identity background is not to be underestimated.

  Wang Ruhai took Jiang Xia to collect the books, then went to register and made a nameplate, receiving a temporary universal nameplate. Then he went to collect a brand new set of Guozijian student uniforms, which were not normally worn, but only needed on special occasions such as Confucius' birthday or other grand celebrations.

  Along the way, Wang Ruhai told Jiang Xia that Guozi Academy had a total of four classes: "Tian Di Xuan Huang". The class Jiang Xia was about to enter was the top-class "Tian" class.

  Outsiders think that entering the Tianzi class is quite good, but it's not. As a Jiangxia, if you go to the Dizihao or Xuanhuang classes, your status will definitely be among the top two, but in the Tianzi class, it's different. Most of the students inside are the direct descendants of famous and powerful families, and the lowest official position of their relatives is probably at least a third-grade official, holding important positions and wielding real power.

  Wang Ruhai took Jiang Xia into the Tianzi class, and the whole class had less than thirty people at a glance, but the school was very spacious, with excellent lighting and ventilation effects, which were the best among the four classrooms in Guozi Academy.

  Entering the Tianzi class, the whole class was noisy and everyone was playing together. Wang Ruhai seemed to have not seen it, and led Jiang Xia to the podium, clapping his hands: "Classmates, quiet down, I'll introduce this new student to you, his name is..."

  "What's the point of calling him Ah Mao or Ah Gou, let's talk about it first, what makes him qualified to enter our Tianban?" The young man sitting in the middle of the third row asked lazily, with an extremely arrogant attitude, completely disregarding Wang Ruhai.

  Jiang Xia smiled and said to Wang Ruhai: "Teacher, why don't you go ahead with your business first? I can introduce myself."

  Wang Ruhai took a look at the situation inside the school and could only nod and say, "Then you be careful." After finishing speaking, Wang Ruhai left.

  Wang Ruhai had just left when Jiang Xia walked up to the young man with a smile and asked, "Who did you say was Ah Mao Ah Gou?"

  The young man replied with disdain: "Whoever talks to me is a tomcat or a dog."

  Jiang Xia nodded and made a fist in respect, asking the young man: "Excuse me, sir, what is the highest rank of your family's officials?"

  "Third Rank Official, Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel."

  "Then let's ask you, young master, is a first-rank official greater or a third-rank official greater?"

  "Hahaha......" The young man threw his head back and laughed loudly: "Do you want to laugh my big teeth off? Such a simple question, even a fool knows that a first-rank official is the most powerful."

  "Oh, I see." Jiang Xia nodded and suddenly pulled the young man up, slapped him twice, then swept his right leg to kick him to the ground. Next, Jiang Xia seemed to go mad, stepping on the young man's head and shouting loudly: "Don't you know that my background is a first-class official? You little third-class official, as a small king of the backstage, dare to be arrogant in front of me? Don't you want to live?"
