While everyone was discussing the Tantai family's internal network, Bai Meng had already passed through the bustling crowd and walked into the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen.
As soon as he entered the gate, he heard a loud quarrel coming from inside. For a moment, he felt as if he was in a noisy and lively market instead of the solemn and solemn Jingzhao Mansion Yamen.
Bai Meng took two deep breaths, tried hard to suppress the anger in her heart, and walked into the lobby.
There were two groups in the lobby. One group was the Hanlin Academy. There seemed to be seven or eight people who came. Bai Meng glanced at it lightly. He was not very familiar with it, and they were the ones who made the noise. They surrounded Mr. Gao and were chatting. He was talking nonsense, and Master Gao looked worried. He must have been pestered for a long time.
The other group seemed extremely quiet. The gentlemen of the three academies, or to be precise, the representatives of the gentlemen, stood there quietly without saying a word, as if they did not exist at all.
Bai Meng's body was very coercive. As soon as he came in, the noisy noise immediately stopped, and everyone's eyes were focused on him.
When the gentlemen of the academy saw him, they showed expressions of relief, while the Hanlin officials felt strange that it was the turn of a commander of the imperial army to intervene in the disputes between the scholars.
Master Gao's reaction was the most exaggerated. After he saw Bai Meng, he struggled to break away from Han Lin who was entangled in him, and ran to Bai Meng's side as quickly as possible, as if there was some savage beast chasing him behind.
"The commander-in-chief came at the right time. The lower official's ears are finally clean."
Bai Meng nodded towards him, walked straight to the court, sat down on the chair, and looked at the two groups of people expressionlessly.
Nine gentlemen from the three academies took the lead in standing in a row and saluted Bai Meng. Bai Meng stood up, respectfully returned the salute, and asked the government officials to find some chairs and invite the gentlemen to sit down.
These gentlemen once taught Bai Meng and even Song Jue. Although they once made the gentlemen very angry when they were studying, they respected these gentlemen from the bottom of their hearts and saw that they were bullied. I felt very uncomfortable and angry.
The Hanlin officers looked at Bai Meng and then at the gentlemen who had already sat down, and they all saluted Bai Meng in the same manner. They thought they would receive the same treatment, but they didn't expect that they would never get it in return. With a look from Bai Meng, the other party had no intention of paying attention to them at all.
Several Hanlin felt that they were offended. They looked down on the generals themselves, thinking that they were all rough men, many levels lower than talented people like them who had read poetry and books, and they didn't need to bother to deal with them at all. If it were not forced by the situation, saluting such a reckless man would be a disgrace to a scholar and would be spurned.
"You..." One of the Hanlins wanted to step forward to argue with Bai Meng, but was stopped by his companion in time. He turned to look at his friend who grabbed his arm, "This is too much, too arrogant!"
"Master Gao!"
"The official is here!"
"This day is not normal this year!" Bai Meng plucked his ears and looked through the files about this case that Master Gao pushed to him, "It's obviously still very cold, but why are there flies running out and buzzing? ? Are you so brave? Aren’t you afraid of being frozen to death? "
When the gentlemen of Taixue heard Bai Meng's words, they all showed helpless expressions. Even if this brat is a few years older and has a higher official position, he is not much different from when he was a child. His ability to curse people without using curse words is even better than when he was a child.
Looking at the Hanlins opposite, I found that their faces were not very good-looking. The gentlemen felt a lot more comfortable. After all, this brat was taught by himself, and he was still on his side at the critical moment.
Looking at the reactions of the gentlemen of the academy and these officials, Mr. Gao didn't know whether his expression should be serious or whether he should laugh wildly and mock these ignorant officials.
"Isn't it uncomfortable to hold it in?" Bai Meng turned his head slightly and glanced at Master Gao, "Just laugh if you want to, don't hold it in."
"Commander, when the weather is cold, there are occasionally flies, but they usually don't survive the spring." Mr. Gao coughed twice and took a few poetry books, "This is prepared for publication, and there are also previous ones. It’s already out.”
"Do they all have this problem?" Seeing Mr. Gao nodding, Bai Meng sneered, "Oh, this is not the first time he has done this kind of thing. It turns out he is a repeat offender."
"What kind of habitual criminal? Why did a habitual criminal appear?"
Ying Wu dragged the Han Lin who was knocked unconscious by him into the lobby. As soon as he entered the door, he heard Bai Meng's words and threw the Han Lin to the ground with a deafening bang.
This completely angered the already furious Hanlin officials. Seeing their companions being thrown to the ground without dignity, they completely ignored the fact that they were in a courtroom, where the Commander-in-Chief of the Forbidden Army and the Governor of Jingzhao were sitting. He rushed towards Ying Wu, as if Ying Wu had thrown their children into the well and they were fighting for their lives against him.
Ying Wu didn't care about these Hanlins at all. He waved his hand to Mr. Gao who was eager to let the government officials stop Hanlin. He raised his foot and kicked out Hanlin who rushed to the front. He still restrained himself a lot, and the force he used was not even 10% of his usual strength. Even so, he still kicked Han Lin away who looked barely strong.
The little man following the unlucky guy didn't stop himself and rushed in front of Ying Wu. He picked up his collar and threw him out effortlessly.
When the other Hanlins saw this scene, they were all frightened. They stopped rushing forward and watched dumbly as Ying Wu walked up to Bai Meng.
"Hey, why are you so rude? Aren't you usually quite elegant in front of the princes and generals? Aren't you called Confucian generals? Why are you so rude today?" Bai Meng smiled and took a few photos. "Are you so angry?"
"It's so noisy!" Ying Wu rubbed his swollen temples and pointed outside, "More and more people are gathering now. Please handle this case quickly. The young master is still waiting for the results. Don't let him wait. Yes." He looked at Mr. Gao and motioned for him to take two steps back, "When I came here, I saw Thirteen going to the restaurant. I guess there is something new there."
"They can't wait anymore?" Bai Meng sneered, "Okay, don't let this sneaky thing affect our business, I..."
"Commander!" Before Bai Meng finished speaking, Merlin hurriedly walked in. When she saw the three people lying on the floor in the lobby, she raised her eyebrows slightly, pretending she didn't see anything, and walked quickly to Bai Meng. Meng walked up to him and whispered a few words in his ear. "Young master, I leave full power to the commander-in-chief, but I only have one request. Regardless of whether this is a bureau or not, gentlemen are not allowed to be wronged."
"Okay!" Bai Meng nodded, "It's time to make these guys pay the price for not respecting teachers. Otherwise, they really think that gentlemen are kind and can be bullied!"
