Chapter 1733 Ma Wencai kills people and confuses right and wrong

Seeing Ma Wencai leave arrogantly, Su Mingzhe's face turned pale.

Liang Shanbo suddenly turned pale, not knowing what he was thinking of.

"Brother, your fiancée...ran away from marriage a few days ago?"

"Yes, just a few days ago, it's all over."

Su Mingzhe looked back and saw the change in Liang Shanbo's expression. He suddenly remembered the first episode of "Liang Zhu", when Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai met at the Yue Lao Temple. He couldn't help but think:
"From the fact that Zhu Yingtai was walking normally today, I may not have hurt her that night. Therefore, the plot that night should have gone on as usual. Zhu Yingtai wore her wedding dress, rushed to the Yue Lao Temple, and met Liang Shanbo."

"If the plot goes as planned, Liang Shanbo only knows that he let a bride run away, but he doesn't know who the bride is."

Thinking of this, many thoughts popped up in Su Mingzhe's mind:

"Liang Shanbo doesn't know which girl he let run away. As long as Zhu Yingtai doesn't take the initiative to explain, there is a lot of room for maneuver here!"

……

Perhaps because he felt guilty, Liang Shanbo was noticeably quieter during the rest of the journey.

Su Mingzhe was thinking about taking revenge on Ma Wencai and had no time to continue the topic.

The speed of everyone's walking increased significantly.

In less than a quarter of an hour, everyone arrived at the gate of Nishan Academy.

……

"Killing people——"

"Killing someone——"

The sharp screams frightened the scholars on their way and made them panic and turn pale.

Su Mingzhe raised the corner of his mouth slightly:
"I don't know how Ma Wencai got through this."

……

"Who killed someone?"

Liang Shanbo was a kind-hearted man. When he heard something was happening ahead, he did not turn around and run away. Instead, he grabbed a panicked scholar and asked him what had happened.

The scholar was grabbed by the sleeve and struggled twice but failed to get free. He said helplessly:
"It was... it was Ma Wencai, the son of the governor of Hangzhou, who killed Wang Lantian of the Taiyuan Wang family!"

Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai were both shocked when they heard this.

Just now at Caoqiao Pavilion, Wang Lantian used an excuse to forcibly abduct the commoner girl Gu Xinlian. It was obvious that he was not a good person.

If Su Mingzhe had not spent one hundred taels of gold, Gu Xinlian would have suffered a tragic fate.

When Ma Wencai met Su Mingzhe on his way here, he ridiculed him and it was obvious that he was not a good person either.

Now, Ma Wencai suddenly killed Wang Lantian, and the first feeling people had was that it was a dog-eat-dog fight.

At this time, the scholar broke free from Liang Shanbo's entanglement and ran down the mountain in panic.

……

Su Mingzhe, Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai looked at each other and chuckled:

"Neither of these two are good people. We don't know what happened. Let's go up the mountain and take a look first!"

"Alright."

Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai felt a little heavy-hearted when they heard that someone had died, and they quickly walked up the mountain with Su Mingzhe.

When they arrived at the gate of the academy, they saw a teacher with a rat-like mustache taking control of the situation.

……

Liang Shanbo then grabbed a brave scholar and asked him what had happened.

It turned out that Wang Lantian, relying on his reputation as a descendant of the Wang family of Taiyuan, stood directly at the gate of the academy, intercepted other scholars, and demanded that other students kowtow to him and pledge their allegiance to him before they were allowed to enter the mountain and enroll.

Although the other students were not as well-born as the Wang family of Taiyuan, they were also from prominent families, so they naturally refused to agree to join a dandy like Wang Lantian. Just as everyone was arguing, Ma Wencai arrived on horseback, and without saying a word, he drew his bow and shot Ma Wencai to death.

……

"You used too much force."

When Su Mingzhe took a look at Wang Lantian's body, he saw an arrow piercing his eye and entering his brain. The scene was tragic, hideous and bloody.

Many scholars and students felt extremely uncomfortable and vomited on the spot after reading it.

Looking at the chaotic and noisy scene, Su Mingzhe felt a little regretful for a moment:
"Next time you do something, the scene can't be so bloody."

……

Ma Wencai never expected that he would cause a death.

When he was controlled by the teacher of the academy, he panicked and cried out to the teacher:
"Master, I didn't mean to shoot him to death. I just wanted to shoot off his turban to scare him. But a sudden gust of wind blew the arrow off course!"

"Young Master, be careful with your words!"

The Master with Rat Whiskers was originally a close confidant of Ma Junsheng, the governor of Hangzhou. His surname was Chen and his given name was Zijun. He was sent to the academy as a supervisor.

At this moment, he saw that his superior, Young Master Ma Wencai, shot someone to death. Even if Ma Wencai explained that he did not mean to do it, the fact that someone was dead was still true.

Moreover, the dead person was a descendant of Wang family from Taiyuan, which made the matter even more troublesome and difficult.

After comforting Ma Wencai for a while, Chen Zijun went to find out more details from other students, and his expression became much more relaxed.

However, when he returned to Ma Wencai, his eyes were still solemn:

"Sir, Wang Lantian was born into the Wang family of Taiyuan, and his status is very important. Even if you insist that it was an 'accidental killing', with so many students seeing it, I'm afraid you can't escape the law of 'killing for killing'!"

"Master, save me!"

Ma Wencai was usually quite alert, but at this moment he suddenly panicked.

After all, he was only twenty years old and didn't want to die, let alone lose his life to a playboy like Wang Lantian.

"Sir, don't worry, Chen has an idea."

As Chen Zijun spoke, he whispered a few words into Ma Wencai's ear.

After hearing this, Ma Wencai was a little unsure:

"How could Taiyuan Wang accept such an explanation?"

"My lord, you are confused. Now it's not a question of whether Taiyuan Wang family believes it or not. If the matter gets out of hand, Taiyuan Wang family will also lose its reputation, which means both sides will suffer! At this time, as long as we ask the governor to make the matter real, even if the other party disagrees, we can only retaliate in private!"

Chen Zijun gave a few more instructions, and Ma Wencai finally nodded and said:
"Master, what you said is very true. Now the situation is urgent and this is the only way!"

……

Chen Zijun saw that Ma Wencai agreed to his suggestion, so he walked to a higher place and shouted to the students who were still present:
"Classmates, be quiet!"

As the situation calmed down, Chen Zijun stretched out his hand to Ma Wencai, motioning him to stand up and speak according to his instructions.

In order to survive, Ma Wencai had no choice but to step forward and say:

"Students, this man is not a descendant of the Wang family of Taiyuan, but a pirate from Taihu Lake! I once followed the government army to suppress bandits and met him. Today, this pirate came to the academy, borrowing the name of the Wang family of Taiyuan to force everyone to join him. In fact, he has ulterior motives and a huge conspiracy! The teacher and I have already learned the truth from his accomplices..."

After speaking a few words, Ma Wencai's voice gradually became excited, as if he believed what he said.

Although the other students were skeptical, their restless emotions were gradually calmed down.

When Su Mingzhe heard what Ma Wencai said here, he suddenly remembered something and quickly used the trick of "stealing the sky and replacing the day" to take back the two gold cakes that he had compensated to Wang Lantian at Caoqiao Pavilion.

It turns out that nowadays each family’s gold and silver bear their own brand.

Ma Wencai attributed the identity of a pirate to Wang Lantian. If the gold cakes of the Yuyao Su family were found on him, innocent people would be implicated.

Ma Wencai didn't know what happened between Su Mingzhe and Wang Lantian, so he naturally didn't know what Su Mingzhe was doing.

After he finished reading out Wang Lantian's crimes, he sent his men to Hangzhou City to "report the victory"!
