Daily life in the academy

The door was violently kicked open from the outside, and five or six ferocious-looking men strode in with knives in hand.

"Take the young lady away, and deal with the scholar on the spot." The leader's voice was hoarse, and his words were even more cold and ruthless.

Bai Zhi: “…”

Don't villains always grumble before killing someone? Why is she so decisive? She's cannon fodder, doesn't she deserve it?

"Ah...what do you want? Let me go." Chu Youyou screamed.

The leader pouted and said, "That woman is so noisy, knock her out and take her away."

"Yes, boss."

The palm came down and Chu Youyou fainted.

She was backed into a corner, her mind racing for just a split second, and she couldn't hold back any longer as she cursed.

"Fuck, An Ziqian, you idiot! Just keep dreaming about your future. You'll never succeed in your life!!!"

All this happened in just a few breaths.

The leader's expression changed drastically, and he shouted to the people in front of Bai Zhi, "What are you still standing there for?"

The knife flashed, Bai Zhi closed her eyes tightly, with only one thought in her mind: I'm going to die, it turns out that cannon fodder can't live long.

"Who dares to hurt him?"

The sound of nature rang in Bai Zhi's ears. She opened her eyes suddenly, and the first person who caught her eye was Yan Qingchen. He had a frown on his face and was punching one person after another with a fierce look on his face.

Then it was Mu Bailian's turn. He held the same big knife in his right hand as the one General Mu used when he chased him that day. He had completely inherited General Mu's style. His eyes were wide open and looked very scary. The sentence he just shouted was from him.

The burly man in front of Bai Zhi paused slightly. He was also an old warrior, and he struck again with his sword decisively.

But this time Bai Zhi had hope. She suddenly squatted down and rolled to the gap next to her, avoiding the fatal knife.

The sturdy man wanted to continue chasing, but Yan Qingchen was already behind him, and his powerful fist landed on his chest. "Crack--" was the sound of broken ribs, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Taking advantage of this gap, Yan Qingchen grabbed Bai Zhi's collar from behind, lifted her up, and protected her between him and the wall.

The two strong men who were originally riding Chu Youyou, seeing that the situation was not good, immediately put the person down and joined the fight.

It's not that Bai Zhi talks too much, she just can't help herself: "Just the two of you? No other helpers?"

Yan Qingchen glanced at her and said coldly, "These few rubbish can only scare you."

Bai Zhi smiled: "...Brother Yan is so powerful."

It was indeed as they said. Before the reinforcements arrived, the eight strong thugs in the backyard were all knocked down by the two men.

Mu Bailian walked up to Bai Zhi with a knife in hand, looking very proud: "Azhi, you're welcome."

If it were in the past, Bai Zhi would have definitely retorted, but this time when her life was at stake, the feeling of relief and fear at being rescued was deeply engraved in her heart.

She took a step back, stood in front of the two of them, bowed, and thanked them solemnly: "I, Bai Zhi, am lucky enough to be alive today. Thank you for saving me. I will always remember this kindness in my heart."

Yan Qingchen raised his hand to stop her arm from bending downwards: "No need to be so polite, let's deal with the current situation first."

"Who is this...Miss?" Mu Bailian walked over to Chu Youyou curiously and squatted down. "Hey, it's dirty."

Fortunately, Chu Youyou was unconscious at this time, otherwise there would have been another big battle.

Bai Zhi explained, "This is Chu Youyou, the daughter of the Minister of Rites."

After saying that, she looked at Chu Youyou with a worried look on her face: "Although Yan Guomin is open-minded, there are differences between men and women. She and I have been locked in the same room for several days. If this gets out, it will be bad for her reputation. What should I do?"

Mu Bailian grinned: "Isn't it enough to just disguise it?"

Bai Zhi looked around and asked in confusion, "How can we disguise ourselves? We don't have any extra clothes."

Yan Qingchen seemed to have finally smelled the scent of Bai Zhi and took two steps back: "Do you know where this is?" His voice was a little muffled, as if he was holding his breath.

Bai Zhi looked a little embarrassed. Could she be blamed for this? She had been locked up here for days without being able to wash or change clothes. She could only pretend not to care and said, "This must be a busy city, perhaps a brothel."

"Hongxiu Tower."

Wait, why does this name sound so familiar?

Bai Zhi was just reminiscing when she heard another series of orderly footsteps. Standing outside the woodshed was Zhang Jin, the sergeant of the city defense battalion. He was an acquaintance.

"Prince, Master Mu, everyone in the building has been taken under control. We've searched the building but found no suspicious individuals. The only thing left is the backyard."

Yan Qingchen nodded: "Okay, put these people in prison and search them thoroughly inside and out."

"Yes, Prince." Zhang Jin turned around and prepared to leave.

Bai Zhi stopped him and said, "Wait, Sergeant Zhang, can you send a brother to the building to bring the mother from Hongxiu Building here?"

Zhang Jin looked at Yan Qingchen, who nodded. He immediately gave an order to the soldiers around him, and then started to act with the other brothers.

After some trouble, Chu Youyou changed into men's clothes to cover herself up, and Bai Zhi finally changed out of her smelly clothes.

Yan Qingchen sent someone to send Chu Youyou back to the Chu Mansion, while the three of them went directly back to the palace.

Bai Zhi had not had a good night's sleep since being imprisoned for several days. Now she got on the carriage and was asking how they were found. Yan Qingchen had just opened his head when he heard the sound of even breathing coming from beside him, with a little snoring from time to time.

Yan Qingchen and Mu Bailian looked at each other, put down what they were holding, stopped talking, and let Bai Zhi have a good sleep.

In this dream, Bai Zhi returned to the scene in her last dream. This time, she had floated behind the man in black. She was just one step away from seeing his appearance clearly, but was interrupted again.

"Azhi, Azhi... wake up and arrive at the palace." Mu Bailian shook Baizhi's shoulders, trying to wake him up.

Bai Zhi's mood at this moment was like the anxiety of someone who had already taken off their pants but was not allowed to go to the toilet. She opened her eyes and slapped Mu Bailian's hand away, saying angrily, "You're awake, stop shaking me."

Mu Bailian's chest puffed up, then immediately deflated: "Since you've been in such a miserable state these past few days, I won't argue with you."

After saying that, he got off the carriage first.

Seeing that he was still not in a good state, Yan Qingchen said softly: "It's getting late now, so have a good rest today. We can talk about anything tomorrow."

Bai Zhi really wanted to know what had happened in the past few days, but when she met his serious eyes, she was speechless for a moment. She could only nod obediently and followed him out of the carriage.

Butler Shen was waiting next to the carriage, but what Bai Zhi didn't expect was that there was a little boy standing next to him, and his behavior was quite close to Butler Shen.

The little boy saw Bai Zhi getting off the carriage and happily came over to greet her, pulling her sleeve and smiling happily: "Big brother, big brother..."
