Disguised as a man: Watch me create a new dynasty

Chapter 135: The Scholar Who is Full of Gossip

This sudden scene stunned all the officers. They widened their eyes and opened their mouths, frightened by Yan Nansheng's powerful fighting power.

After a long while, they finally woke up from their dream and rushed forward to grab the assassin.

The invigilator's face was pale and his legs were still trembling slightly.

He forced himself to calm down, walked up to Yan Nansheng and tried to comfort him.

But when he saw that Yan Nansheng's face was much rosier than his, and thought of her calm reaction to catching the thief just now, he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue, shook his head helplessly, and hurried away with the other officers.

Among those officers, there was one who knew Yan Nansheng.

After seeing the skills of this legendary figure, he was completely stunned!

His mouth was wide open and couldn't close for a long time.

He remembered that his cousin had once mentioned Yan Nansheng, saying that he was a martial arts expert and had natural supernatural powers.

He was a little skeptical at first, but now that he had seen it with his own eyes, he knew that what his cousin said was true.

Thinking of the power of that kick just now, he couldn't help but feel a lingering fear, and at the same time he was full of admiration for Yan Nansheng.

After the initial shock, the other students in the examination room also looked at him with admiration and amazement.

They talked in low voices and praised Yan Nansheng's heroic performance.

But Yan Nansheng acted as if nothing had happened. He straightened his clothes, sat back in his room calmly, and waited for the exam to begin.

This unexpected incident instantly added a bit of horror to the already tense exam atmosphere.

The air in the examination room seemed to be condensed, making people feel depressed and uneasy.

The assassin was soon recognized as the new scholar last year, whose surname was Wang.

The hometown of this scholar Wang is adjacent to Qingshui County where Yan Nansheng is located, and it is called Xianghe County.

Talking about his dispute with Yan Nansheng, it can be said that the grudge has been going on for a long time. Of course, it was a unilateral grudge on his part.

At that time, Yan Nansheng showed extraordinary intelligence at the tender age of five. He passed the imperial examination and became the top candidate, becoming a child prodigy praised by people in the surrounding area.

When the news spread, everyone praised Yan Nansheng.

However, at that time, Mr. Wang and several of his friends were waiting for the announcement of the results in the same inn as Yan Nansheng.

Because Yan Nansheng was so young but still ranked first in the exam, he became jealous and laughed at Yan Nansheng shamelessly.

In front of many neighbors, he said with a frown, "A five-year-old kid, who is still nursing, what knowledge can he have? He is just lucky. When he grows up, he may just be a mediocre person."

This groundless and malicious remark immediately aroused the disgust and rebuttal of the crowd. Everyone accused Wang Xiucai of being narrow-minded and unable to stand others' excellence.

But Yan Nansheng did not take these gossips to heart. He continued to study hard and his talent was increasingly revealed.

As the years passed, Yan Nansheng's reputation became more and more famous. Not only did he make great achievements in academics, he was also highly respected for his noble character.

Even the emperor issued an edict to praise Yu Yannansheng for serving the country and the people at such a young age and setting an example for scholars.

As for Mr. Wang, although he passed the examination and became a scholar, he made no further progress and remained mediocre.

The slanderous words he had used against Yan Nansheng at the beginning now became a whip that severely slapped his own face.

Whenever someone mentioned Yan Nansheng's achievements, they would also mention Wang Xiucai's ignorant and harsh ridicule, making him a laughing stock of everyone.

Mr. Wang's family was also implicated because of his inappropriate remarks.

In the village, people pointed fingers at their family and kept their distance.

The family's complaints about Mr. Wang grew day by day. His parents often sighed and complained about his faults, saying that he had ruined the reputation of the entire family because of a momentary jealousy.

His wife also treated him coldly, thinking she had married the wrong man.

Under such pressure, Wang Xiucai's heart was gradually filled with resentment and distortion, and he blamed all his misfortunes on Yan Nansheng.

He believed that it was Yan Nansheng's existence that put him in such a predicament.

In the end, under extreme psychological distortion, Mr. Wang actually committed such a cruel and dangerous act.

When the chief invigilator learned about this, his face became solemn.

He knew very well that if this matter was not handled properly, it would definitely affect the status of many candidates.

Therefore, people were quickly arranged to comfort the students and soothe their nervous emotions with soft words.

At the same time, more officers were dispatched to strengthen patrols to ensure the safety of the examination room.

With such efforts, the candidates gradually calmed down, but they could not withdraw their thoughts and were still thinking about the relationship between Wang Xiucai and Yan Nansheng.

But gradually, the candidates' way of thinking changed.

Originally, I was just curious about the love and hate between the two parties.

For some reason, Yan Nansheng's reaction to Wang Xiucai's assassination attempt gradually emerged in my mind.

Could a weak scholar really display such amazing skills?

What’s more, Yan Nansheng is much younger than them, how could he have such amazing skills?

While the invigilators were rearranging the examination room, the previously quiet candidates began to discuss in low voices.

"This Yan Nansheng looks gentle and refined, but I didn't expect that he is so skilled. It really shows that you can't judge a person by his appearance." A candidate said with a puzzled look on his face.

"Who said it wasn't true? I was so scared, but he was able to resolve the crisis so easily." Another candidate echoed, with a hint of fear in his eyes.

At this time, a candidate from Qingshui County, with a proud look on his face, raised his voice and said, "You don't know this, Yan Nansheng's ability is more than this!"

Everyone's eyes were instantly focused on him.

He cleared his throat and began to tell the story vividly.

He was beaming with joy and excitement, as if he had personally experienced it: "It turns out that before the Tatar tribe went to war with our Daqing Dynasty, they secretly hollowed out the mountain, hoping to quietly enter the Daqing Dynasty and launch a surprise attack on the Xie family army.

That was an extremely critical moment! But it was our scholar Yan who discovered the Tatars' conspiracy and informed Xie's army in time.

This allowed the Xie family army to be fully prepared and prevented the Tatars from succeeding in their evil plan. "

He paused, then continued, “Not only that, Yan Nansheng also designed a team to fight against the barbarians in the snow.

You know, fighting in the snow is not easy, but Yan Nansheng relied on his wisdom and strategy to help the Xie family army defeat the Tatar barbarians and drive them back deep into the grassland, making them never dare to attack easily again.

Because of this, Yan Nansheng was rewarded by the emperor. In recent years, he has been favored by the Xie family army, and General Xie personally appointed him as a military advisor. "

The candidates around were listening attentively, their faces filled with amazement and admiration.

"I see. No wonder he has such skills and courage."

"It's true that heroes emerge young. Compared to him, we are so far behind."

Everyone was expressing their admiration for Yan Nansheng. The originally tense and terrifying atmosphere gradually dissipated due to the discussion of Yan Nansheng's deeds.

Yan Nansheng was completely unaware of this. If he knew, he would only sigh and wonder, are all scholars so gossipy?
