Why marry someone when you are reborn?

Chapter 62 People are afraid of being famous

Xu Yun almost attracted everyone's attention.

This made Xu Yun, who was used to hiding himself in a corner, very uncomfortable.

Moreover, she has to express her views in public.

Inside his shoes, Xu Yun couldn't help but curl up his toes and scratched the insoles.

But on the surface, Xu Yun was calm and composed. Her indifferent look was quite detached and intimidating.

Xu Yun numbed his scalp and smiled slightly: "The two generals are not ordinary people. They have been fighting side by side and have their own division of labor. Although I have never met the two generals, I have heard a lot about them."

"So, I would venture to guess that there is no such thing as allowing anyone to participate in politics. General Jiang was meant to participate in politics."

"As for the king and queen... probably not. Although they are husband and wife, they respect each other and keep these things separate, so maybe we will have two kings."

Having said this, Xu Yun has finished his story.

Actually, this was not her guess.

She had known that a long time ago.

Therefore, she was not shocked at all, nor did she feel that what she said was sensational.

But her words still caused a huge uproar, like an ice cube dropped into a frying pan - everyone's reaction was outrageous.

Moreover, her words made everyone stunned for about two breaths, which was like a spell.

After a moment of silence, someone spit out saliva wildly: "Nonsense! Nonsense! There is no way this is possible! There is no way this is possible!"

Although it was far away, Xu Yun felt that the saliva was about to spray on his face.

She lifted her sleeves to cover her face slightly.

He silently retreated a little behind Zeng Wuji - this guy was big and could be used to block things.

Once someone takes the lead, others will follow.

In an instant, spit and sleeves were flying. The scholars were debating fiercely and gesticulating exaggeratedly with their hands. The scene was very exciting.

Zhao Mu swallowed his saliva and said, "There has never been such an intense scene before."

Zeng Wuji finally realized what he had done, so he accepted his fate and firmly blocked all the spit that flew towards Xu Yun. Then, while blocking it, he also argued with others: "Why is what Miss Xu said wrong? Freedom of speech!"

"Confess? Confess what? Who says that Miss Xu is guilty of saying this? Bring me the law!"

"Neither of the two generals is anxious, what are you waiting for?!"

Perhaps because his family is rich and he doesn't have to stutter, Zeng Wuji is not only big in build, but also has a loud voice. When he speaks, his voice is as loud as a bell, and he can speak as much as three people.

Therefore, in the debate among the heroes, he was not at a disadvantage at all.

Xu Yun nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and was quite impressed - if Zeng Wuji became an official in the future, he would be suitable for negotiating with enemy countries, or for being an envoy or a minister of remonstration.

How did the debate finally end?

It was because Zeng Wuji took off his jade pendant and slammed it on the table: "Do you dare to bet with me?"

So, with the crowd excited, everyone took out their valuables and placed bets on the spot.

Finally, Xu Yun also participated.

She smiled and took out a gold cake and placed it next to her name.

All the people present were poor scholars. Seeing such a golden cake, they were all a little surprised: So rich? Oh, no, so confident?

Zhao Mu looked at the golden cake and stuttered. He asked carelessly, "Ms. Xu is so rich, why does she still work in a bookstore?!"

Xu Yun couldn't tell him that this was a sure win, so she was willing to take out all the gold cakes that weighed her down. She could only smile and pretend, "I still have some extra money at home. But I don't have many books. I want to read more, so I thought of this idea."

Zhao Mu heard this and seemed to be thinking about something.

Not only Zhao Mu, but many people from less wealthy families also fell into deep thought.

Zeng Wuji looked at Xu Yun with a look of admiration: "Although Miss Xu is a woman, she has seen more and thought more deeply than me. I admire her! I admire her!"

Xu Yun felt that the insoles of his shoes were about to have holes.

But she had to continue pretending: "No, no, I just heard too much about the two generals and I felt something."

After the bets were finally placed, there were five people supporting Xu Yun, and the rest were from the other two factions.

Among them, most people believed that General Jiang was the queen, and after assisting General Zhou to ascend the throne, she would eventually return to the harem.

Xu Yun also got to know the other two people who supported him. One was called Wang Zhiqiao and the other was called Lu Feng. Both of them were from the side branches of the big family and were disciples of the same teacher.

Upon hearing that their teacher's name was Cui Hao, Zeng Wuji and Zhao Mu were really envious: Cui Hao was from the Cui family, but Cui Hao was a side branch and he himself was not an official, but he loved reading and teaching very much and was very knowledgeable, a famous and learned person.

Lu Feng smiled and said, "If there's a chance later, I can introduce you three. The teacher likes people like Miss Xu the most. She has her own opinions."

Wang Zhiqiao was a little shy and didn't say much.

Xu Yun first thanked them for their support, and then brought up the topic of exchanging books.

She brought three copies today.

Prepare to use these three books as a stepping stone.

Now it seems that this is still not enough. One book for each person, and there is still one book missing.

Zeng Wu Ji didn't say anything. He didn't want to give up such a good opportunity.

Zhao Mu hesitated for a moment, and just as he was about to speak, Lu Feng smiled and said, "Senior Brother Wang and I can read a book together."

Wang Zhiqiao nodded: "Yes, we can read the same book together."

So Xu Yun took out three books and exchanged them for three books, all of which he had never read.

After doing all this, Xu Yun found an excuse to leave.

Naturally, they also decided to wait until the results came out before coming here to claim the prize. The items were handed over to two very prestigious scholars for safekeeping, and the list was also properly recorded. Everyone had read it and confirmed that it was correct.

Xu Yun never worried that the money would be swallowed up.

Nowadays, scholars look down on these yellow and white things, and value their reputation and good name the most, so they will never do such things. If they really do it, their life will be ruined, and they will never be able to make a name for themselves again.

After studying for so many years, who among you doesn't have the dream of becoming an official? You can't ruin your future for a little money.

Zhao Mu also followed Xu Yun.

He was a little embarrassed: "I really want to read this book, otherwise, I should give way to it--" After all, he had read it before.

Xu Yun smiled and said, "Why give in? There are many ways to solve it."

After saying goodbye to Zhao Mu, Xu Yun returned home.

After returning home, I asked the library to scan and input the three books first, then I changed my clothes and helped cook: stewed lamb today!

Xie Wanqing and Hongyu spent the whole morning preparing the mutton and were waiting for Xu Yun to come home and put it in the pot.

Xie Wanqing hesitated a little: "Should we send a bowl of this mutton to the neighbors?"
