After reading my mind, Daddy, why don't you smile?

After crying like this, his momentum has been reduced by three points!

In order to save his last bit of face, Master Liu had to defend Liu Er. After all, she was his daughter in name only. He couldn't just recognize her when she was glorious, and then deny her when she was criticized. Otherwise, the backbone of his Liu family would be exposed.

"Ma'am, is there any misunderstanding here?"

Master Liu didn't dare to say anything harsh.

Zhao Ying smiled faintly, "I haven't finished speaking yet..."

"My husband, Miss Liu's father before, treated her as my wife's youngest daughter, so he favored her since she was young. About two years ago, my husband sent a poem to a friend, wishing him a successful exam in the autumn exam. Miss Liu was by his side at the time, so my husband taught her the poem. The nickname of the friend who was about to take the exam was Kuozhi!"

Now the truth is out.

It turns out that this poem was stolen...

No wonder……

No wonder……

Everyone in the audience suddenly realized and looked at Liu Er with contempt.

Shangguan Qingyue said with a click of the tongue, "How shameless! They even stole this!"

[What's there to steal from these broken poems? I don't even want them even if they're given to me for free! ]

[I use paper with words on it to wipe my butt, but I still can’t wipe it clean enough…]

A country gentleman was curious, "Since it was written two years ago, it should be passed on to the world. It is such a beautifully crafted article, it should not be buried and unknown..."

Everyone nodded after hearing this. That's right, if it was as the beautiful woman said, they had read the poem long ago and would not have been deceived by Liu Er's misleading information.

"It's a long story. The person to whom I gave this poem was Kuozhi, who was a long-time friend of my husband. He failed the imperial examinations for many years, but when he passed, he was so excited that he got a heart attack and passed away..."

"Ah? What a pity..."

"Later, my husband buried this poem with Kuo."

Everyone couldn't help but sigh when they heard this. Some people who liked to argue wanted to say that since the man is dead, what evidence do you have to prove that it was your husband who did it?

But then he thought, even if it was not written by the husband of the beautiful woman in front of him, it was definitely not a poem written by a child like Liu Er!

At this point, Master Liu could only pretend to be disappointed in Liu Er and said, "Er Er, you are so stupid. Why did you do such a shameful thing?"

Liu Er cried, "I didn't! What my father taught me is mine, I didn't steal it!"

Master Liu paused after hearing this, and said to Zhao Ying after a while, "Maybe the child is still young and doesn't understand what's going on here. I guess it's not intentional..."

Seeing this, others agreed, "Yes, that's right, Miss Liu is just young and doesn't understand that this is plagiarism!"

"Her father has taught her to recite it, so he will definitely not blame her!"

"would not!"

The little fellow put his hands on his hips and interrupted angrily, "If my father knew that the fake daughter plagiarized his poem and used it to cause trouble for me and my mother, he would definitely be angry!" Shangguan Qingyue paused, thought about it and said seriously, "He might spank me!"

[Daddy will spank me when he's angry... I remember now, Daddy will spank my second brother more than me!]

Liu Er broke down and yelled at Shangguan Qingyue, "Daddy won't hit me, Daddy loves me the most!"

Shangguan Qingyue was heartbroken and asked in a tender voice, "He loves you so much, why did he send you away?"

puff……

Liu Er was completely defeated.

Mr. Liu felt ashamed and wanted to take Madam Liu and Liu Er away, but Liu Er pushed him away and refused to leave.

She wants to stay here and watch Shangguan Qingyue being punished by the people from Xiangcaoju!

Mr. Liu paused, but his desire to watch the fun prevailed.

So does everyone else.

Because everyone wants to see the style of Mr. Xiangcao in person.

After a while, someone came to the door.

A man in white walked in with his hands behind his back. His skin was as white as snow. Although his facial features were not stunning, he had an outstanding temperament and a ethereal air. He walked towards him from afar, looking like an immortal.

There was a sudden silence in the lotus pond until the man in white looked at everyone one by one and asked, "Who picked my lotus?" Looking closely, he looked a little excited.

The sound was like flowing water in a mountain stream, clear and cool.

Everyone looked at the culprit. Zhao Ying shot a look at him, and those people turned their eyes away in fear for no reason, not daring to look at him again.

Shangguan Qingyue was about to open his mouth, but was stopped by Zhao Xi, who spoke first, "Sir, are you Ms. Xiangcao?"

The man in white was surprised and asked, "Did you pick it?"

"Didn't they say it was a girl..." the man in white muttered, looking at Zhao Xi with some disgust.

Zhao Xi didn't respond, and continued, "I ate your pills, and I will pay for it. I have 10,000 taels of silver, and I hope you will accept it!"

"How come you don't understand what I'm saying? I'm asking who picked my flowers and who wants your money?"

Zhao Xi frowned slightly, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, Liu Er pointed at Shangguan Qingyue and screamed, "It's her! She picked it!"

The disciples who followed the man also echoed, "Yes, it's that little kid!"

The man in white's eyes lit up, and he quickly looked at Shangguan Qingyue. Zhao Ying stepped forward to block the man's sight, and said softly, "Sir, since you don't want money, then the conditions are up to you. We can afford all the rare treasures in the world!"

"What a big tone!" Someone among the disciples mocked.

However, Zhao Ying and the man in white ignored him. The man in white glanced at Zhao Ying for a long while, then looked through her at the little kid behind her. He understood something instantly and smiled gently, "Don't worry, Madam. I'm not here to hold you accountable!"

So what are you here for?

The man in white understood Zhao Ying's expression and explained, "I came here to see who has broken my lotus formation."

There were constant sounds of surprise among the crowd.

"What is Lotus Formation? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"Isn't he a liar? Is this guy really Vanilla Monk?"

The disciple scolded coldly, "This is our junior uncle, Master Cao!"

"What is Grass Layman?"

The disciple said, "Our master is Lay Buddhist Xiang, so of course the uncle is Lay Buddhist Cao!"

[Fuck, it turns out that Ms. Vanilla is two people...]

Mr. Cao looked at Zhao Ying with a look of joy in his eyes. "Madam, you don't know this, but I once vowed to find the smartest person in the world, take her as my apprentice, and pass on my legacy to her. However, it is easy to find mediocre people, but it is hard to find good generals. For more than ten years, I have never met one!"

"Today is indeed a godsend opportunity. Madam is the mother of that child?" Mr. Cao said excitedly, "Then congratulations, I will accept your daughter as my disciple!"

Zhao Ying: ...

Shangguan Qingyue: […No, who are you? Do you want to be my master?]

Shangguan Qingyue looked at the man in white in front of him and suddenly felt very familiar. It was not his appearance that was familiar, but his aura that was familiar.
