I rely on talking to brush the copy

The winter in Shanghai is different from the winter in Beijing. One is a magic attack, and the other is a physical attack.

The damp and cold environment in Shanghai in winter really made Le Jing and the other three northerners very uncomfortable. It seemed that the bones were soaked with cold water vapor, and the damp quilt could never keep warm. Not to mention that Le Jing was not in good health.

But since they came all the way to this most prosperous city in the Far East, there was no reason to stay at home to avoid the cold. They should go out for a walk.

So when Le Jing received Wu Yi's reply of "It's just a small matter", he put the matter of being exposed aside.

Anyway, it has happened, and it's useless to think too much. But the barking of dogs in Beijing is just a few miles away, and it can't disturb Shanghai thousands of miles away.

So Le Jing and Yang Jinglun took Li Shuran and toured Shanghai seriously under the guidance of Ji Qi, a local.

Le Jing wandered in the streets and alleys, wandered in every corner of Shanghai, big or small, and looked at this flashy city, the pearl of the Far East, with the eyes of a hundred years later.

At this time in Shanghai, the Oriental Pearl Tower had not yet been built, high-rise buildings were not common, foreign buildings in the foreign market were still very new, and the old cars in the old photos made harsh horns.

Only the surface of the Huangpu River at the Bund was clear and had not changed for a thousand years. It was like the scenery of the old times, but also like a dream of a hundred years.

Le Jing thought, he really still liked Shanghai a hundred years later.

Although the housing prices in Shanghai a hundred years later were very expensive, the prices were also high, the living pressure was very high, and the air quality was not good.

But at least there was no foreigner's lawless country in Shanghai at that time, there were few pedestrians on the road who could not afford cotton clothes, and there were no frozen bodies on both sides of the street.

Even many beggars in later generations were more decent than the poor at that time.

Le Jing took Li Shuran to play in Shanghai for three days.

Then at noon on the fourth day, a telegram from Peking came. The telegram was also sent to Ji Qi's home. At that time, Ji Qi took them out to play and was not there. It was Ji Qi who received the telegram when he returned home in the evening, and then sent it to them overnight.

This telegram was still very brief: "Someone published an article in the morning newspaper yesterday, revealing Mr. Daoming's true identity, and said that Mr. had a lot of shame in the past. It's dangerous! What do you think?"

Although the telegram was short, the news was very important.

Le Jing lowered his eyes and pondered, his fingers carelessly tapping the table, making a muffled low hum.

Yang Jinglun asked in wonder: "A lot of shame?" He seemed to be amused, and he comforted Le Jing: "Mr. don't worry about this matter, Mr., it must be that person made up for fame. Everyone knows what kind of character Mr. is, and he will definitely not be deceived by someone's frame-up!"

Although Yang Jinglun didn't know Li Jingran's true identity, he didn't believe the four words "a lot of shame" in the telegram.

He has been in contact with Mr. Li for more than half a year. If he still can't see what kind of person he is, he is blind. In addition, judging from his literary works, Mr. Li is indifferent to fame and fortune, worried about the country and the people, has a sense of justice, and pities the weak. He will never have a "much shame" past.

Ji Qi also said: "In my opinion, there is no need to pay attention to such people. Some tabloids love to publish groundless rumors. Even me, since "Memoirs of a Famous Courtesan" became popular, those newspapers said that I was a lecherous man who lingered in the flowers." He smiled and shook his head, and said with emotion: "I finally experienced the so-called fame brings troubles."

When the knocking sound stopped, Le Jing raised his eyes to look at the two friends who didn't agree, and chuckled: "If you really knew my past, you wouldn't say that." Something cold and piercing emotion emerged from those amber eyes, and the boy answered frankly: "I was not a good person in the past, and I did a lot of wrong things."

Yang Jinglun was startled, and subconsciously began to distinguish: "Who didn't do some absurd things when he was young and frivolous? Who can guarantee that he will never do wrong things in his life? Sir, don't worry too much." Until now, he naively thought that the wrong things Li Jingran said were just absurd things like young people's youthful vigor, greed for flowers and wine.

Ji Qi read something from Le Jing's expression. He looked at Le Jing inquiringly and asked, "What did you do wrong in the past?"

Under the candlelight, the boy's fair face flickered with the swaying flames, and his amber eyes seemed to be stained with deep shadows, like white jade stained with ink, with a hint of ghostly danger.

He narrowed his eyes, but the smile on his face was leisurely, and he answered the question irrelevantly: "I was wondering when this matter would be exposed - as I became more and more famous, I didn't expect my past to be hidden forever. Now that it has been exposed at this time, it can only be him who did it."

Ji Qi was confused and stood up anxiously, "So what did you do wrong in the past? Tell us quickly so that we can help you find a solution!"

Le Jing's eyes curved and showed a beautiful smile: "I don't know what I did wrong under that person's pen. Although I can roughly guess, I still have to read the article before I can understand."

Looking at the two people's confused and anxious looks, he still had the mood to comfort them: "No one can completely get rid of their past. Now it's time for me to pay the price for it. If it can be solved this time, then I don't have to worry about my past next time."

Although that was not his past, it belonged to Li Jingran's past.

But since he is now walking in the world as Li Jingran, he naturally has to bear that past as well.

By secular standards, Li Jingran is not a good person. He was full of the five poisons of eating, drinking, prostitution, gambling, and gambling, and his body was emptied out by drinking, sex, and gambling, so he died of a high fever caused by the abstinence reaction, and Le Jing was able to walk in the world with his body.

The four words "very unbearable" used in the telegram to describe it were really kind.

As early as when Le Jing started writing the article, he had already anticipated that there would be a subsequent turmoil caused by his past. When photos of him in jail were exposed, he thought a storm was coming. However, Li Jingliang only went to the Literary Journal once to inquire about the news, and then there was no news.

This storm can be big or small, it all depends on how he handles it.

As for the people behind the scenes, he knew without thinking that they were those from the Li family, and Li Jingliang was the most suspect.

Because he had just dealt with Li Jingliang, and under the threat of his classmates, with Li Jingliang's character, he would not come back openly and retaliate, but would only hide and do something secretly.

Li Jingliang had already become suspicious because of the photos, but now because of the humiliation he and his classmates suffered, he might think of his suspicions again and go to the Literary Journal to seek confirmation.

Le Jing had no way of knowing that he had already guessed everything to the fullest at this time.

…

…

Li Jingliang put down the newspaper he had read countless times, feeling extremely happy in his heart.

Unexpectedly, his dear brother turned out to be a great writer after leaving home. If he hadn't used money to pry open the mouth of the editor of "Literary Newspaper", he would not have believed anything he said.

Thinking of Li Jingran's idleness in the past, he felt a chill in his heart. Could it be that he started hiding his clumsiness from then on? Li Jingran actually has such deep intentions?

Li Jingliang didn't want to believe this, but he was even less willing to believe in Li Jingran's talent!

He must have found someone to write it for him!

There's no way that loser could write an article like that!

So he will definitely reveal his true colors and let everyone see what kind of rooster and dog thief he is!

Thinking of the article published in the newspaper, he felt proud. He had been preparing that article for a week, and he could almost recite the words in it by heart. Later, he also found other people to post articles, which would definitely ruin Li Jingran's reputation.

Li Jingliang took back his imagination, opened the drawer, and began to open the reply letter from his parents.

In the letter, his father was reprimanding him not to act without permission and publicize the family scandal.

Li Jingliang's lips curved into a sarcastic smile. He knew his father all too well.

He reprimanded him at this time, but Li Jingran was now famous and could bring him more benefits, and his article not only pushed Li Jingran to the opposite side, but most importantly, it was likely to make Li Jingran lose his own value.

But he believed his father would compromise.

Because he wrote a proposal in his letter home that his father could not refuse.

As soon as this report came out, many interested people would naturally go to Fengtian to verify it. What Li Jingran did before was not a secret and could be found out easily.

Of course, even if no one verifies it, newspapers will still publish "verification reports" to let readers know what a terrible person Li Jingran really is.

If Li Jingran wants to resolve this dispute and get rid of the label of being unfilial and disloyal, then his father and mother must take the initiative and publish an article in the newspaper to clarify the matter and endorse Li Jingran's character.

His father also used this as a threat to completely control Li Jingran. At that time, no matter whether Li Jingran is talented or not, he is just a dog of their Li family. Doesn’t all the money he earns belong to him? Thinking of this, Li Jingliang even began to hope that Li Jingran would not find someone to write for him.

Anyway, by that time Li Jingran would have been ruined and would be blamed by thousands of people. He could lend his name to Li Jingran to publish novels so that his talents would not be wasted. He could also wash away the stigma caused by his unfilial son and revitalize the Li family.

He put back his wandering thoughts and continued to read his father's letter. Sure enough, his father changed the topic at the end of the letter and said that he would write a letter to Li Jingran to discuss the next matter.

Li Jingliang raised the corner of his mouth, and he could almost see the scenery after he restored the lintel of the Li family.

Of course, Li Jingran is just the beginning. He will never forget the faces of those who humiliated and beat him that day! Is it important to be rich and powerful? It is better to bully a white-headed man than to bully a poor young man! One day he will climb to the top and trample those who humiliate him to the soles of his feet!

…

…

Lejing has always been very patient.

While waiting, he sent telegrams to some people and wrote 1/3 of the article he had been planning to write.

He believes that now that the movie "Memoirs of a Courtesan" is a hit, newspapers in Shanghai will be happy to reprint the original author's scandal reports.

Lejing didn't wait long.

Three days later, the Huangpu River News published the article in its entirety.

When Yang Jinglun and Ji Qi rushed into the room, Le Jing had just finished reading the article titled "The Night Watchman of Hypocrites" word for word.

"Sir, is this article all fake?!"

"Jingran, you didn't do these things, right?"

Facing the surprised and uncertain gazes of the two people, the young man propped up his chin, tilted his head to look at them, and smiled casually: "Most of them are true, some of them were done by me, some of them were wrong things, and some of them I have a clear conscience." He After thinking for a while, he added: "Of course, I wrote the articles myself, and Editor Yang can testify to this."

Meeting the boy's gaze, Yang Jinglun nodded silently in astonishment. Ji Qi, who was always eloquent, was speechless and didn't know what to say.

The boy glanced at them, and a mischievous look flashed in his eyes: "Why, you still don't allow me to turn back?"

Ji Qi wiped his face and smiled helplessly: "Your turn back is too thorough, isn't it?"

So the boy smiled happily: "This is dramatic and worthy of being a role model for education, isn't it?"

Yang Jinglun finally regained his sanity. At this time, he looked at Le Jing with a complicated look. He couldn't connect the elegant and noble boy in front of him with the person in the article who was full of five vices of eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, and drugs, and disobeyed his elders and was unfilial and unfraternal.

"Sir, there must be something hidden, right? You have your own reasons, right?"

Le Jing thought about it, and said with a smile: "You think that sleeping on straw and eating bitter food to endure humiliation and bearing heavy burdens for the sake of filial piety can only tarnish your innocence, what do you think of this kind of character?"

Yang Jinglun's eyes lit up. Although he didn't understand what Le Jing meant by "character", it didn't prevent him from understanding the other words. He said excitedly: "So those are really fake? Sir, you pretended to be like that because you had no choice?!"

Le Jing responded with a meaningful smile.
