It can be said that Xu Yun's background has been completely exposed.

But there are some inaccuracies in it.

For example, Xu Yun was the eldest daughter of the Xu family and was doted on. However, because her mother was in poor health, she stayed in the Taoist temple to accompany her mother all year round.

Therefore, Xu Yun's excuse that he came to the north because of discord with his family was not true.

Xu Yun lied like this just for the information from the north.

Otherwise, why would he get involved with General Yujie as soon as he arrived and try to please him in every way?

After hearing these rumors, Xu Yun couldn't help but ponder: It seems that my luck is a little better? This time, I met Aunt Deng... and I was able to save Aunt Deng at such a critical moment...

If you look at it from a conspiracy perspective, it's clear that all of this was arranged long ago!

Who would believe it was a coincidence?

Xu Yun shook his head, and suddenly felt that many things in this world were really just coincidences, but everyone thought they were conspiracies.

It's not just that.

Some people also said that Zeng Wuji and Xu Yun had an affair. It was said that Xu Yun, a woman, had to get close to men and even risked her body to get information.

This is also the reason why Zeng Wuji did not come today.

After hearing this, Xu Yun asked Zhao Mu, "Then no one told you and me?"

Zhao Mu's face turned red all of a sudden, and he stammered for a long time without being able to utter a single word.

Xu Yun understood: It seems that this is it.

"Has Zeng Wuji been ordered by his family not to go out?" Xu Yun asked.

Zhao Mu nodded: "Zeng Wuji is already engaged and will be married soon, they are afraid of affecting the marriage."

Zhao Mu's family was poor and they farmed in the suburbs. He didn't know much about what was going on in Kyoto, so it was actually better for him.

Xu Yun apologized sincerely, feeling that he had implicated Zhao Mu and Zeng Wuji. Although he was better than Lu Dalang, he was actually not much better.

Now, she doesn’t even dare to see Lu Dalang.

After asking someone to send her two rare books, she still felt bad.

Zhao Mu shook his head: "We don't care. Wu Ji said that you should think of a solution. You can't go on like this. They are going to destroy you."

How important is a woman's reputation? Anyone who spreads such rumors deserves death.

Xu Yun responded, "I'll find a way. You and Wu Ji shouldn't come to me anymore. If you need a book, have Wu Ji's followers go there. Have you found someone to guarantee it?"

Zhao Mu frowned: "We agreed that we would be guarantors - Wu Ji has already asked his other brothers in the sect, maybe there will be someone suitable."

Seeing Zhao Mu's persistence, Xu Yun simply stopped him from thinking: "But I won't guarantee you. Zhao Mu, I know you want to help me, but now is not the time for you to help me."

"I really have an idea."

Zhao Mu didn't quite believe it: "Really?"

"I will definitely go into the examination room with you." Xu Yun promised with a smile.

Zhao Mu finally nodded, mainly because Xu Yun looked so trustworthy.

After sending Zhao Mu away, Xu Yun did not tell anyone else about this matter and turned around to continue reading. Since the library was upgraded, she had to say that she felt that studying had become more interesting recently.

The teachers in this library are a little better than those in ordinary bookstores.

However, this matter cannot be left alone.

On the second day, after Xu Yun visited all the families she was supposed to visit and was rejected by everyone, she went directly to the teahouse that scholars loved to go to the most.

Even if there is no literary gathering, there are still many scholars who come here to chat and meet friends.

I don’t know if it was really good luck, but when Xu Yun got there, he found that there was really a literary gathering being held today.

Since Tiandu was helping her, Xu Yun certainly didn't hesitate and walked in with big strides.

When a little boy stopped him on the road and asked for money for tea and snacks, Xu Yun gave it to him readily and also gave him some tip money as well.

As soon as Xu Yun entered, he realized that there were really quite a lot of people at the anthology. And it had probably been a while, and it was the busiest time.

Someone recognized Xu Yun and blurted out, "Why are you here?"

At this moment, everyone noticed Xu Yun, and the originally lively atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

Facing the gazes of so many people, Xu Yun smiled slightly and bowed: "Everyone, excuse me for disturbing you."

"What are you doing here? You are not welcome here." Someone shouted, "We don't want to be associated with spies!"

Xu Yun walked up to the man with a smile.

It's funny, the man was in the crowd and was very arrogant.

But when Xu Yun walked forward, no one stopped her along the way. Instead, as if they had seen some ferocious beast, every time she took a step forward, the others automatically made way, allowing Xu Yun to pass unhindered.

Even that person couldn't help but step back after Xu Yun approached him. He looked alert and panicked, and he didn't even have the confidence to speak: "What do you want to do?"

Xu Yun had a smile on his face the whole time, but that smile was so polite that it seemed a little fake.

When they were close enough, Xu Yun asked him, "Do you know what the crime of slander is?"

The man didn't expect that Xu Yun was not quarreling or making a fuss, let alone hitting anyone, but asked such a question so gently. He immediately let out a confused "ah", and couldn't understand what Xu Yun was up to at all.

Xu Yun kindly explained: "According to Xinhua Law, those who slander others, if the case is serious, will be fined for six months to one year of hard labor in addition to compensation. Those with minor offenses should apologize in person and be punished with voluntary labor for seven to thirty days."

"You say I'm a spy, do you have any evidence? If there's no evidence, it's just slander."

After Xu Yun's words came out, not only that person, but everyone else was dumbfounded.

This is the first time I see someone who is not in a hurry to prove his innocence, but instead recites the legal books and regulations with great confidence.

Xu Yun's smile did not fade: "Now, should we report to the police or settle it privately?"

Throughout the whole scene, everyone was silent and confused: What's going on?

The man finally recovered, but he was like an enraged chicken, jumping up and down, pointing at Xu Yun's nose and yelling: "Do you think I'm afraid of you? Freedom of speech! Do you think you're going to arrest me for saying a few fair words in broad daylight?!"

Xu Yun smiled and said, "You haven't read the new law book, have you?"

The man was so angry that his nose was snorting, and his hand began to tremble as he pointed at Xu Yun: "What are you showing off?"

Xu Yun understood: "Oh, so you really didn't see it."

She looked around and said, "What about you? Has no one seen it? Those who have seen it, won't you remind your friends?"

Someone quietly pulled that person back: "It seems that what she said is true."

Unfortunately, when people are angry, they usually don’t listen to advice, so the man threw his hands, raised his chin, and said angrily: "I will report to the police right now and have them arrest you, the spy!"

Xu Yun lifted her clothes and sat down, still smiling: "Looking forward to your presence."

It wasn't that she was provoking anyone, it was just that the soles of her feet were sore after walking for so long and standing for so long.
