Chapter 294 Chaos
Somehow there was a sudden chaos downstairs. Jiang Tunan, who was guarding by the window, noticed that there were several sturdy men among the victims, which formed a sharp contrast with the skinny victims around them.
Those people secretly pushed the people around them and pretended to accidentally knock over many people's porridge bowls, stirring up everyone's emotions.
"Miss, Chunhua is afraid..."
Chunhua looked at the disaster victims who were in chaos, smashing each other and the surrounding stalls. Su Xiaoxiao's porridge stall had been surrounded by the victims.
"I'm starving. I want to eat! Give it to me!"
“Why is there nothing in here?”
"You're here to give out porridge, and that's all you're going to prepare?"
"They must still have some!"
Chunhua felt sorry for Su Xiaoxiao when she saw the victims' reactions.
"Miss Su Er was kind-hearted and gave alms, why are these people like this?"
“Never underestimate the evil of human nature.”
The teahouse owner may have realized that something was not right, and hurriedly told his employees to close the door to prevent the victims from rushing in, and then he consciously went to guard the door of the single room.
“It’s just horrible.”
Chunhua was still frightened when she saw the carriage overturned by the crowd, but the next moment Jiang Tunan's hand gently touched her head.
"Don't be afraid Chunhua, these people are just starving. With your strength, you can easily beat ten of them by yourself."
Although he didn't know how strong Fu Le was, with Chun Hua's natural power, as long as they hid in the teahouse, they wouldn't be in too much danger. On the contrary, it was Su Xiaoxiao. Jiang Tunan glanced at Su Xiaoxiao who fell to the ground.
What a shame.
After hearing Jiang Tunan's words, Chunhua seemed to be encouraged and said very enthusiastically,
"Whoever dares to bully the young lady, I will slap him away!"
Jiang Tunan laughed dryly. She didn't know what others were like, but when Chunhua said they were blown away, it might really have been blown away.
The servant at the door laughed out loud.
"With your tiny arms and legs, you can still slap someone away? Hahaha..."
Jiang Tunan smiled evilly and said, "Young man, I advise you not to judge people by their appearance.
“Don’t judge people by appearance.”
I just thought Jiang Tunan was protecting Chunhua's face, with an expression that said "I understand".
"Miss, you are right~"
Jiang Tunan winked at Chunhua, who walked up to him expressionlessly and suddenly clasped her fists at him.
"excuse me!"
Then Chunhua lifted the clothes into the air with one arm without any pressure, just like holding a doll.
Because he was too shocked, Fule lost his balance and fell backwards. Chunhua saw that he had no intention of taking action, so Fule fell heavily to the ground.
"You are too light, eat more."
Chunhua walked away expressionlessly, leaving Fu sitting on the ground in a daze.
I give in: No, haha.
Jiang Tunan clicked his tongue a few times, and his cheeks quickly turned red when he realized what he was saying. He immediately stood up and said unconvincedly,
"This doesn't count. Let's have an arm wrestling match."
Fu Le vowed to get back at his enemies. Jiang Tunan looked at Chun Hua, who was half a head shorter than Fu Le, and then looked at Fu Le.
"You? You're arm wrestling with her? Do you have any shame?"
Jiang Tunan's words hit Fu Le like a hammer, but he still insisted. Jiang Tunan had just seen the well-developed muscles on Fu Le's arms, so she was not sure whether Chunhua could beat Fu Le.
The key point is that there is no comparison. It sounds ridiculous for an adult man to compare strength with a seventeen-year-old girl.
"Miss, I'm better."
Jiang Tunan was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"If you want to compete, go ahead."
Chunhua and her boyfriend sat on either side of the tea table in a kimono, while Jiang Tunan still stood by the window, paying attention to what was happening on the street.
He smiled casually.
"Let me make it clear first, don't cry if you lose."
Chunhua felt uncomfortable when she heard the words of surrender. It seemed that this man did not take her seriously. Maybe he just wanted to embarrass her in front of the young lady so that he could replace her?
The more Chunhua thought about it, the more she felt that this was possible, and she secretly cursed the man in her heart for being a schemer.
After taking it, he felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by Chunhua, so he coughed and said,
"Then I'll count to three, two, one."
"Three, two, one, start!"
With a "bang", Jiang Tunan turned around to look at the two of them, only to see that Fu Le's hand was held down by Chun Hua, and Fu Le's face was even redder than when he fell to the ground just now.
Jiang Tunan: It’s red now, brother.
"Is it over?"
I felt like I was stabbed in the heart.
"Well, it's over."
Chunhua answered Jiang Tunan obediently.
"so fast."
"puff!"
I gave in and felt like I was stabbed in the heart again.
“Spring flowers are awesome!”
Jiang Tunan gave a thumbs up, looking pleased. Chunhua replied shyly,
"It's just luck~"
Then Chunhua immediately turned around and said,
"Don't cry if you lose~"
I give up: I will thank you when I die.
The noise on the street gradually died down. Soldiers arrived and took control of the situation. A man in black clothes stood beside Su Xiaoxiao, with a bamboo-patterned mask on his face.
Su Xiaoxiao was wearing a man's cloak and crying while shaking her shoulders helplessly.
"Master Wen Zhu, thank you for saving me. If it weren't for you, I would have been hurt."
Wen Zhu had empty eyes and did not reply, looking like he was in a trance.
"Wen Zhu?!"
Jiang Tunan was so surprised that he clung to the edge of the window. The servant next to him was even more surprised than Jiang Tunan.
"Why is he here?!"
Jiang Tunan was puzzled.
"You know him?"
He put away the shock on his face and responded with a few random words.
"Wen Zhu, the boss of Zhuying Pavilion, everyone knows him."
Wen Zhu downstairs seemed to have sensed something and looked towards the teahouse, but only saw a tightly closed window.
Wen Zhu's eyes regained some clarity, but his mind was in a mess. He remembered that he was waiting for Jiang Tunan at Mozhuxuan, but when he heard that he was blocked by disaster victims on the road, he wanted to come and pick him up. However, the moment he saw Su Xiaoxiao fall to the ground, his body uncontrollably rushed to save her.
"Master Wen Zhu, I will return this cloak to you after I wash it."
Su Xiaoxiao lowered her head, looking shy. The sight of Wen Zhu falling from the sky just now was truly heart-warming.
"No need for that. Miss Su, just throw away this cloak after you use it."
Wen Zhu's tone turned cold, and he thought that there must be something strange about Su Xiaoxiao.
......
Jiang Tunan sat at the tea table, stroking his chin and thinking.
Why did she not understand this plot? When did Wen Zhu start hooking up with Su Xiaoxiao again?
Just when Jiang Tunan was at a loss for words, the door of the single room was kicked open.
"The government is investigating the case!"
Several men in soldier uniforms rushed into the room. Chunhua silently protected Jiang Tunan. After surrendering, she stepped forward with a flattering look and said,
"My dear officials, my daughter is the cousin of the Minister of Rites. The person you are looking for should not be here."
"What nonsense!"
The leader pushed the servant away and stared at Jiang Tunan fiercely.
"Please ask Miss to explain why you are here."
Although Jiang Tunan felt puzzled, he still cooperated.
"I wanted to go to Mozhuxuan to buy some books today, but when I got here, the road was blocked. There were more and more disaster victims behind us, so we had no choice but to come up here."
"Oh? What a coincidence? The disaster victims were causing trouble just when you came over?"
Jiang Tunan's face darkened.
"What does this mean, my Lord?"
"According to our investigation, this riot was caused by someone deliberately inciting the victims' emotions. I think the young lady is very suspicious..."
Jiang Tunan suddenly remembered the muscular men in the crowd just now, so a hesitant look appeared on his face.
When the leading officer saw Jiang Tunan's expression, he thought that Jiang Tunan was guilty.
"Miss, if you can't prove that you have nothing to do with this matter, I can only ask you to come with us."
Jiang Tunan spoke in a low voice, pointing at himself.
"me?"
"That's right!"
Meng Jingchen, who had just walked to the door with Ziwen, heard this and was about to go in to rescue Jiang Tunan, but the next moment he heard the woman's arrogant voice.
"Brother, are you looking for someone to be a scapegoat just to complete the mission?"
"Are all of you in this business so unethical? Today you just pick someone to be the mastermind, and the real murderer is still at large. Then next time you just pick someone else to take the blame."
"So all the good guys have been arrested by you, Kuku, and only the bad guys are left outside. Why do you use the process of elimination to solve cases?"
"You are not a spy sent by the enemy country, are you?"
"Honestly, you should go to jail."
Meng Jingchen stopped Ziwen who was about to enter and eavesdropped at the door with interest.
"You, you dare to insult the officers and soldiers?!"
The leading officer's tone was filled with anger.
"Then you still slander the students at will! If you really want to accuse me, then we can go to the Dali Temple and have a good discussion!"
"It just so happens that I went to drink tea with the son of the Dali Temple last time, so this time I just happened to catch up with him."
Jiang Tunan remembered that there was a man named Zhen Shuai among Xiao Mingxu's friends. He introduced him as the son of the Dali Temple Minister, and now it came in handy.
"Wha...what?"
The leading officer was a little frightened and softened his tone.
"Are you a student at the Girls' School? You're not in class at this time, what are you doing here?"
Jiang Tunan put her hands on her hips, looking like a spoiled young lady.
"What does it have to do with you? You have no right to interfere in my affairs. What's your name? I'll ask my uncle to talk to your leader later!"
Although they had never heard Jiang Tunan use the word "leader", the leader probably guessed what he meant and was a little panicked.
"I wonder who your uncle is?"
Jiang Tunan turned his head away without saying anything. Chunhua saw the opportunity and spoke up.
"I just said that my young lady is the cousin of the Minister of Rites."
The leading officer's expression suddenly turned unsightly, and he glared at his subordinates fiercely, as if asking why they didn't ask clearly in advance before taking action.
His subordinates smiled bitterly and said, "The other person introduced himself from the beginning, and it was you who didn't listen."
"Miss, I am so sorry. It must have been a mistake made by my men. I apologize to you."
"Well, is there anything else?"
"No...no more."
The leading officer led his men out of the room in a hurry, closing the door. Chunhua looked at Jiang Tunan tightly grasping the corner of his clothes and asked curiously,
"Miss, what are you doing?"
Jiang Tunan exhaled lightly, with an excited expression on his face.
"This is my first time relying on someone else for power. I'm a little nervous, hahahaha."
Chunhua:?
I give up: How can this guy be so cruel that he even scolds himself?
"Miss Jiang's evaluation of herself is really to the point."
Meng Jingchen pushed the door open with a wicked smile on his face. Jiang Tunan tilted his head and looked at him.
"Where's the gatekeeper? Why did you let him in?"
Meng Jingchen:?
"Miss Jiang doesn't welcome me?"
Although Meng Jingchen still had a smile on his face, the smile did not reach his eyes.
"How could that be? Although Master Meng came uninvited, I will definitely not chase you away in order not to damage our friendship as small as a fingernail."
Jiang Tunan made a Korean friendly gesture and spoke in a sincere tone.
Meng Jingchen sneered and sat down at the tea table. Jiang Tunan then reacted and said,
"That's not right. Isn't this the class time? Are you skipping class?"
As a person who has received nine years of compulsory education, in Jiang Tunan's heart, the world is big, and the class is the biggest.
Meng Jingchen tilted his head slightly, his tone full of indifference.
“Some classes are better off not attending.”
Jiang Tunan was just about to condemn Meng Jingchen morally when he saw Meng Jingchen pulling out a dagger from his waist and playing with it out of boredom. The blade was sharp and Jiang Tunan's face was reflected on the blade.
The words of condemnation were swallowed, and Jiang Tunan gave a thumbs up.
"Well, life is not a track, but a wilderness. Arithmetic is a wilderness, riding and archery is a wilderness, and the Imperial Academy is a wilderness!"
Meng Jingchen smiled with a smile on his face, and the smile in his eyes was more genuine.
"Miss Jiang is very clear-headed. I admire her."
"low profile."
Jiang Tunan suddenly seemed to realize something.
"Oh my God, I just remembered that I have an appointment. I'll be leaving now. Master Meng, please enjoy your tea slowly."
Perhaps it was because Meng Jingchen had been nice to Jiang Tunan before, which made her almost forget that he was a living devil.
Jiang Tunan stood up to leave, Meng Jingchen suddenly spoke coldly,
"Miss Jiang is afraid of me?"
Jiang Tunan had a premonition that if she said she was afraid, Meng Jingchen would probably go berserk on the spot, so she sat down quickly again.
"Why should I be afraid of Master Meng? You are not a cockroach."
Meng Jingchen: ....
"Then why is Miss Jiang in such a hurry to leave? Why doesn't she want to stay with me?"
Jiang Tunan didn't understand and was shocked. He asked seriously,
"Mr. Meng, do you really want me to stay with you? Is it because you like me being by your side?"
Meng Jingchen:?
Almost instantly, a hint of red quickly appeared on the tip of Meng Jingchen's ear, but it was hidden by his hair and not noticed.
"Miss Jiang, as a girl, hasn't anyone told you to be reserved?"
"Then I'll go?"
Jiang Tunan felt very uncomfortable here, and Meng Jingchen on the opposite side glanced at him, seeming that he was not very satisfied with Jiang Tunan's performance.
"No, big brother. You can't leave or not leave. You seem to have a rebuttal personality."
Meng Jingchen still didn't speak, with unclear emotions in his eyes.
Jiang Tunan lay on the table speechlessly.
"Okay, leave me here to do the reading comprehension."
Meng Jingchen sat there and said nothing. Jiang Tunan could only judge his mental activities by reading his eyes, which was not reading comprehension.
"You can leave if you want,"
As soon as Meng Jingchen finished speaking, Jiang Tunan hurriedly stood up and was about to leave, but Meng Jingchen suddenly spoke up.
"But the soldiers downstairs are still evacuating the victims. There are some people mixed up among the victims this time. If you are not afraid of being kidnapped, you can go ahead."
Jiang Tunan looked back and sat back in his original position.
"I am a person who listens to advice. I will sit for a while."
Meng Jingchen sneered and said nothing. Not long after, a group of people escorted a suspected disaster victim into the room.
"Sir, we only caught this one. The others got away."
Meng Jingchen raised his eyes and looked at the group of people with a cold tone.
"A bunch of useless things."
Seeing this, Jiang Tunan raised his hand and said,
"I'm going to the hut."
The following plot is probably not something she can listen to.
Meng Jingchen nodded and did not stop them. Jiang Tunan pulled Chunhua and Kimono out of the room. Almost at the moment the door was closed, a terrible scream came from behind Jiang Tunan.
"Hiss~ It's scary, let's go quickly."
