"You little bitch! If you know what's good for you, get out of my way. If I'm happy, I'll reward you with two taels of silver for guarding the door. If you insist on making me angry..."

Just as Lan Qiyi raised his fist to threaten Yu Nanshu, a hand grabbed his wrist tightly.

“Ah ...

He felt a sharp pain in his wrist and struggled frantically, twisting his body into a knot, but he still couldn't break free from the grip of the big hand.

Yu Jiusi secretly exerted force and kicked him in passing, "Stinky boy... in front of the reading building, who are you trying to scare?"

Lan Qiyi grimaced in pain, his eyes reddening as he cursed, "I don't give a damn who you are! This is our Imperial College territory, and I'm a student there, so why can't I go in?"

Yu Jiusi threw him down the stairs and held his neck to look outside.

"You didn't hear what my sister just said, did you? No one is stopping you from entering. If you want to enter the building, you have to follow the building rules and queue up."

Having been spoiled by his family for more than ten years, Lan Qiyi had never suffered such injustice. After slipping around Yu Jiusi's armpit, he took out the silver while panting.

"Queue? Queue, huh? I'll let you queue!"

He threw the huge purse into the sky, and countless pieces of gold and silver fell down, shining brightly, making dull sounds when they hit the stone floor.

"Brother Yi!" Several students behind him had been silent until they saw him start throwing silver. Then they stepped forward to stop him. "White silver, what are you doing..."

Lan Qiyi suddenly laughed and gestured for them to look at the queue.

They turned to look.

But in the blink of an eye, the people squatted on the ground and scrambled for gold and silver. The originally orderly team was also smashed to pieces by the gold, silver and wealth.

Lan Qiyi's eyes were full of provocation, and he even made a mocking gesture towards Yu Jiusi.

Yu Jiusi didn't respond, so he just stood there, laughing to himself, tears glistening in the corners of his eyes.

"Rules? What rules do you, a gatekeeper, know? At the gate of the Imperial College, I am the rule! Have these lowly people ever seen so much silver? I just throw it around and they have to make way!"

He walked up to Yu Jiusi step by step, raised his chin, and said, "Gatekeeper, I, Lan Qiyi, am the first one in line now. Can I go in?"

Watching the crowd snatching things, Yu Jiusi felt complicated.

He did not blame human greed, because he knew that human nature could not withstand temptation.

For ordinary people, a piece of gold may be the food supply for the whole family for a long time.

And how could we not want the gold and silver that “fell from the sky”?

Ask yourself, if the person in the queue was him, if the spilled objects were steel knives and steel armor, would Yu Jiusi pick them up?

He couldn't answer, so he didn't blame the people.

"What?" Seeing that he remained silent, Lan Qiyi's arrogance grew even more intense. "Didn't you say you could get in by queuing? Are you breaking your promise to the Reading Building? Look, look, are you sad? Where's the momentum you used to kick me just now? Is this the first day you understand the principle of 'silver can make the gods'?"

He opened his mouth to speak sarcastic words. Yu Jiusi chuckled softly and was about to call him stupid as a pig when he was protected by someone behind him.

"Lan Qiyi, please don't be so harsh. General Yunhui has been away from the capital these days, and you've been acting more and more unruly."

Yu Jiusi raised his eyes and saw the back of Lin Fanyun's head blocking his view.

Although he was very grateful to Lin Fanyun for speaking out for justice, but... was Lin Fanyun mistaken? Could he, Yu Jiusi, be bullied by a little playboy?

After a moment of surprise, Yu Jiusi stepped forward and stood side by side with Lin Fanyun.

Yu Jiusi was not in the capital most of the time, and Yu Nanshu did not like to go out before, so Lan Qiyi naturally did not recognize them, but as they were both from a family of military generals, he recognized Lin Fanyun at a glance.

The Lin family, as a long-established family of military generals, and the Lan family, as the leader of military generals from humble backgrounds, have always kept to themselves.

But today, it is Lan Qiyi's "face battle", which is worth "taking the risk"!

"Brother Lin said I'm disorganized?" He stared at Lin Fanyun, raised his left hand, and pointed at the crowd. "They accepted my reward and were willing to give me first place. How can they be disorganized?"

Lin Fanyun pursed her lips, frowned, and opened her mouth to reason, but was interrupted by him again.

"Besides, Brother Lin, my last name is Lan, and yours is Lin. We are not related in any way. Why are you using my father to pressure me? Even if my father were here today, he wouldn't be willing to hit me, but what about him?"

He moved his arm a few inches and pointed at Yu Jiusi.

"He pinched my wrist, pressed my neck, and kicked me, and you didn't say anything to me, but instead you came to control me?"

"You..." Lin Fanyun glanced at Yu Jiusi, "If you hadn't scared his sister and disturbed the order outside the door, why would he attack you?"

In fact, deep down, he also felt that Yu Jiusi shouldn't have kicked Lan Qiyi, but he had to take sides in this "brawl" today.

"That's enough, that's enough." Lan Qiyi irritably shook his hands, assuming a triumphant attitude. "I'm not going to argue with him today. Now, I! Want! To! Go! In! And read! A book! Get out of the way!"

"You're not going to argue with me?" Yu Jiusi looked at him, and he seemed to be more and more stupid. He sneered, "Thank you very much. But I'm sorry, I have to argue with you. The rules of the reading building are that those who cause trouble will be directly handed over to the authorities. Come on, I, the gatekeeper, will personally take you to Jingzhao Prefecture."

Seeing Yu Jiusi walking towards him, Lan Qiyi's heart trembled.

What's going on? Isn't he the most extravagant dandy in the capital?

Who is this guy across from me? Why haven't I seen him in Beijing before?

Before he could utter any harsh words, another person came out of the building.

"This young master is so majestic, just like an eagle's wings, covering the sky and blocking out the sun."

Lan Qiyi frowned, looked at her for a moment, and suddenly realized, "You are Shen Zheng."

Before Shen Zheng could say anything, the people who had been looting gold and silver outside the door suddenly swarmed in.

"Sir Shen!" The common people stopped in their tracks, holding their "windfall" with innocent smiles on their faces. "We just discussed it. We found this money at the entrance of the reading building, so it should be used there. Could you help us save it first? We can use it to buy books, paper, and tea later."

Yu Jiusi, who had witnessed the frantic looting, was stunned. "What did you say?"

They didn't want to take the gold and silver back to spend, but instead planned to spend it all in the reading building?

The people nodded with difficulty.

It would be a lie to say I don't feel bad about it, but this money... is too hot to handle.

"Because this gold and silver came from an illegal source," said a young man dressed as a scholar. "A gentleman loves wealth but earns it in a proper way. It's obvious this young man from the Imperial College is here to cause trouble for the Reading Hall. If everyone takes this gold and silver, we'll be aiding and abetting the evil, and truly bringing shame to the Reading Hall."

When Lan Qiyi heard this, he was furious.

"Are you sick?" He rushed forward and wanted to hit them, but was hugged by his fellow students. He could only throw his hands up and curse: "You took my money, and then turned your back on me? You even used my money to buy pre-owned properties? You! I'm talking to you, you stinky scholar, come here!"
