The sun in the sky has turned to the west.

The time is roughly around the afternoon (15:00-17:00).

Lu Yi stood at the gate of Zhao Yao's house which had been smashed to pieces, squinting his eyes and looking at the team approaching in the distance.

The public housing in Guanglu Temple is in an excellent location.

The Imperial College is just to the east of this public housing estate.

It’s less than ten miles from Cuiwei Peak to here.

From a distance, Lu Yi saw a four-wheeled carriage decorated with red silk and silk flowers driving in the front. According to the information sent by the young eunuch, Li Erya, the lucky one chosen by Bai Lu and the Bai family, was smiling from ear to ear as he sat in the coachman's seat and drove forward.

Bai Changkong and a group of great sages also rode on horses, leisurely following the carriage, talking loudly all the way, with all of them having rosy faces.

Behind them, there was a team that was several miles long. It was made up of scholars from the Imperial College and the Imperial Academy. Each of them held a plum blossom in their hands, and as they walked along, they chanted various beautiful lyrics and songs praising the beautiful love between men and women.

Among the crowd, only Li Erya's father, the Minister of Rites Li Zi, was forcing a smile and trying to cope with the people around him.

The Bai family's marriage caught Li Zi off guard.

Li Zi never dreamed that his son would be chosen by the Bai family, and Li Erya even sent him up happily!

However, the ceremony for the gathering of wise men and women in harmony is too simple.

Bai Lu displayed her talent, Li Erya displayed her talent, and a group of great sages praised them as a perfect match and a beautiful woman, a virtuous man and a kind woman, and said they were indeed a match made in heaven and a perfect marriage.

In just over an hour, Li Erya and Bai Lu became a "proper" couple in front of tens of thousands of students from the Imperial Academy and the Imperial College.

Afterwards, Bai Changkong proposed in public that according to the ancient customs of the ancestors of the ancient tribe, the newlyweds would build a new house of their own in addition to the residences of their elders. In ancient times, this would probably mean digging a new cave in the mountains or building a new thatched hut.

In short, a newlywed couple will not live with their elders from both sides - this is also in line with the principle of the tribal ancestors to expand and multiply.

Therefore, Bai Changkong had already "paid three years' rent" and rented a courtyard with three entrances and a back entrance for the young couple to live in in Wuyinfang, the public housing area of ​​the Guanglu Temple Yamen.

The Guanglu Temple was an extremely lucrative government office, so it had a lot of public property and many vacant houses. Many officials from other government offices in the court who could not afford to buy private houses would rent from the Guanglu Temple.

Bai Changkong's operation was reasonable and no one could find any flaws.

Li Zi had a thousand words of greeting to Bai Changkong as a female elder in her mind, but she was too embarrassed to say them in public.

He was wary of something fishy going on in the Bai family's marriage, so he hurriedly arranged for three hundred inner-door disciples from the Qiqiao Pavilion to replace his own servants and maids, preparing to turn his own mansion into a safe fortress to ensure that nothing would happen to his precious little son.

I never expected that Bai Changkong, this "old thief" who is so cunning, would actually find another house for Li Erya and Bai Lu to live in.

Moreover, the excuse of finding a house was so "in line with ancient etiquette" that Li Zi could not find any excuse to object - given Li Zi's status and position in culture and education, and his academic weight in "etiquette and law", he could not be Bai Changkong's opponent.

The team suddenly stopped.

Countless people watching the excitement on the roadside were chattering, and the chaotic noise gradually became louder.

A row of captains and strong men wearing blue and green palace guard robes, along with a large group of white-robed guards, lined up in a row, completely blocking the street.

Behind them were hundreds of Lu Yi's personal guards wearing heavy armor and riding blood-hoofed black horses.

These guards carried their lances across their shoulders, put down their steel visors, and put on a threatening posture as if they were ready to charge into battle at any time.

Li Erya is Li Zi's youngest and favorite son. He was spoiled since childhood and was very good at writing and romance. However, he had never had a quarrel or a fight with others since childhood.

He had never seen such a scene before.

Li Erya immediately pulled the reins and looked at the guard who was blocking the road a little at a loss.

Bai Qiong rode past the carriage in a rage, pointed at Lu Yi who was standing at the gate of Zhao Yao with his whip, and shouted: "Lu Yi, you are such a ruthless person..."

Lu Yi shouted coldly: "Slap him!"

The fish-crazy tiger monster holding the staff laughed, rushed out with a gust of wind, and slapped Bai Qiong.

Years ago, Bai Qiong was severely injured by a female ghost and his energy was excessively depleted. He took countless tonics, but his face was still blue, his eyes were black, and his whole body was trembling as if he was seriously ill and dying. How could he avoid this palm?

The words he hadn't even gotten out of his mouth were forced back by the fish-crazy tiger's palm wind.

Just as the slap was about to hit Bai Qiong hard in the face, a sharp sound of breaking air came from behind. Bai Lang rode up on his horse and pointed his right hand. A gust of wind shot out for more than ten feet and hit Yu Dianhu's temple hard.

Yu Dianhu didn't bother to slap Bai Qiong, he just slapped his hand hard, and the finger wind hit his palm with a dull 'bang'. Yu Dianhu's body shook and he took two steps back, looking in horror at Bai Lang, who was riding slowly towards him with a gloomy face.

"Lu Yu, today is a good day for Wei Shuang to get married." Bai Lang raised his voice, staring at Lu Yu with gloomy eyes: "I know you are resentful, but things have come to this point. The fault is not my Bai family, nor is it Wei Shuang's."
"If you still consider the brotherhood between Uncle Lu and my father..."

Lu Yu interrupted Bai Lang rudely: "That's enough. I don't like what you're going to say next. It's disgusting. Do you know that?"

"You must be saying that it's all my fault, Lu Yi. It's because I allowed myself to degenerate, was coerced and bribed by the eunuch, couldn't stand the temptation of wealth and glory, and joined the eunuch party... So, your Bai family was forced to cancel the engagement."

Lu Yi's voice was very loud.

The scholars from the Imperial College and the Imperial Academy who were following behind were all in an uproar.

Someone was shouting, "But is it the Lord Tianyang who 'lives his life in a raincoat and a straw hat'?"

Someone else shouted, "But Lu Yu from 'Only the Fragrance Remains the Same'?"

Someone else was yelling, "'Out of the mud but not stained, washed by the clear water but not coquettish', this poem is incomplete, incomplete, Lord Tianyang, when will you complete this wonderful text?"

Another group of scholars ran up the street, and one of them shouted almost crazily: "Lu's thin gold style, Lu's wild cursive script, Lu's golden stele style, Lord Tianyang, Lord Tianyang, 30,000 strings of cash for the pen, can I ask for three copies of the original?"

Bai Changkong's expression grew increasingly gloomy.

In Moyun Tower, the aftereffects of Lu Yi, the plagiarist, suppressing the Twelve Sages finally broke out bit by bit.

The Bai family has tried their best to discredit Lu Yu, but Lu Yu has relied on his own strength to become extremely popular and famous among the disciples of culture and education!

No matter how Bai Changkong slandered him, he could not control the hearts of all the disciples of culture and education in the world.

Lu Yu actually has quite a lot of fans among the students of Imperial College and Imperial Academy!

"It's insulting to society. These disciples don't know right from wrong. I'm afraid they are not fit for important positions." A great sage angrily waved his hand, "Lu Yu does have some literary talent, and those three handwritings are indeed amazing. But his character is so bad. Even if he has some talent... the more talented a treacherous and evil person is, the more harm he can cause!"

Bai Changkong agreed with this deeply. He was about to nod in agreement with the words of this great old friend, when suddenly he was shocked all over.

Bai Changkong looked at Lu Yi in horror.

Ah Hu broke into Zhao Yao's residence and smashed the gate and the courtyard wall to pieces with one blow. Now the surrounding area was filled with the palace guards and Lu Yi's personal guards, and a large group of Yulin soldiers surrounded the entire house.

Bai Changkong didn't notice for a moment that the team actually arrived at Zhao Yao's door!

Seeing Lu Yi standing in front of Zhao Yao's gate, Bai Changkong's breathing suddenly became heavy. He rode forward slowly, passed his two sons, and squinted at Lu Yi: "Lu Yi, what are you doing?"

"Oh, Lord Bai, I don't mean to make things difficult for you." Lu Yi smiled kindly. He waved behind him, and a group of guards came out carrying a dozen large boxes.

With a few "dong dong" sounds, these large boxes were placed on the ground. The guards opened the lids of the boxes, revealing the gold ingots, gold bricks, gold ingots, as well as gold sand, gems, pearls, etc. filling the space between the gold blocks.

All around, countless common people and scholars from the Imperial Academy and the Imperial College screamed in fear.

"Zhao Yao, the supervisor of Guanglu Temple, is suspected of embezzlement. I, the palace supervisor, received a report from an informant and came here today to arrest Zhao Yao and seize the stolen money." Lu Yi looked at Bai Changkong with a smile: "Yeah? I heard that Zhao Yao is your student?"

Bai Changkong looked at Lu Yi without changing his expression and said coldly: "Bai, I don't have such a student."

In the crowd, Zhao Yao looked at the box carried out by the guards with a pale face. Bai Changkong had just finished speaking when Zhao Yao suddenly roared, and the decorative sword on his waist was unsheathed with a clang. With a swirling sword light, he and his two sons who followed him, three heads flew up at the same time, and large amounts of blood splattered all over the ground.

Bai Changkong turned around suddenly and saw Zhao Yao and his two sons' heads falling to the ground and rolling around.

There was an uproar all around.

Someone was shouting: "He committed suicide out of fear of punishment. There is no escape!"

Bai Changkong took a deep look at Zhao Yao's bloody head, then slowly turned his head and looked at Lu Yi and said coldly: "The criminal Zhao Yao has committed suicide out of fear of punishment. Lu Yi, why don't you get out of the way? Do you really want to ruin Wei Shuang's marriage?"

Lu Yi looked at the three heads and shook his head gently: "What a decisive decision. Tsk, he killed two of his own sons at once. What kind of kindness is worthy of him doing this?"

Bai Changkong remained silent and just looked at Lu Yi.

Lu Yi sighed, "Go, collect the body of the criminal... How cruel and insane! They are marrying off their granddaughter, yet they have to make it bloody. How unlucky!"

A group of guards walked past, and wherever they passed, the great sages and scholars avoided them.

In just two or three sentences, Zhao Yao and his two sons, who were alive just now, were dead on the spot. The scene was too tragic.

Some people even looked at Lu Yi with extreme dissatisfaction - just as Lu Yi said, Bai Changkong was marrying off his granddaughter, and you forced Zhao Yao and his two sons to death. This was indeed too unlucky.

Lu Yi looked at Bai Changkong, who had a calm face, and suddenly smiled brilliantly: "Master Bai, I am really sorry for today. I think your family's marriage will really be disrupted by me."

Lu Yi waved behind him again.

Two young eunuchs brought up the wooden box containing Shi Wuyou's head, and also brought up the token representing the leader of the Nine Yin Sect.
