Mind reading, the emperor saw my fist hard

Chapter 382: 2nd Class 42

[This is the 42nd place in the second class who wants to sell his wife. What a coincidence~~ He and the ugly third place winner live in the same inn. ]

It’s really a coincidence that you don’t have to run around, you can see the excitement of both hotels in one inn.

Everyone looked at the 42nd person in the second class lying on the ground with sharp eyes, but until now no one knew what the 42nd person in the second class was named.

"Yang Chengyun, you are really planning to take advantage of me."

A slim woman walked out of the broken door of the inn.

The woman was not very old and even had a somewhat childish look on her face, but the people following her could tell that her methods were not childish at all.

Behind her stood two sturdy maids, who looked very strong. Behind them were several servants holding sticks, all of whom glared at Yang Chengyun who was lying on the ground.

Yang Chengyun was beaten out of the inn and his head was still dizzy. When he looked up, he saw so many people watching the fun. He even saw familiar faces from last night's Enrong Banquet among them.

Those are all officials in the imperial court. If today's issue cannot be resolved, he will have no use for his position as a Jinshi.

Yang Chengyun was extremely flustered and got up from the ground. "Madam, please listen to my explanation. The world can tell what I feel for you. I have no bad intentions. It's just that I passed the imperial examination and I'm happy. I want us to go for a walk alone and enjoy this unique success."

Yang Chengyun's wife, Li, looked at her husband and sneered, "Walk alone and enjoy yourself. What is this knockout drug for?"

A bottle of medicine powder was thrown in front of Yang Chengyun.

“This…this…I have trouble sleeping, so I bought this to help me fall asleep.”

"Ha!" Li sneered.

There was no need for Li to say anything, the people watching the excitement had already shouted,

"Who would use knockout drugs to sleep? Could he be planning to do something sneaky?"

Li's face turned even colder when he heard this: "Tell me! Why did you buy this knockout drug?"

"I...I...I use this to fall asleep." Yang Chengyun closed his eyes and bit it to death.

"Okay! I'll assume that you just have trouble sleeping. The knockout drug is used to make you sleep. What about this escort? Don't tell us that we need an escort to accompany us when we go out for fun."

"boom!"

A tightly tied man was thrown out of the inn.

"This..." Yang Chengyun was speechless this time and couldn't find a reason to evade the question.

"The knockout drug plus the helper, it's clear they're trying to sell someone off, but I don't know who they're selling off."

The people watching the excitement were even more excited.

"Who else could it be? Of course it's the Jinshi's wife. Think about it, two people, and knockout drugs, it can only be the Jinshi's wife. It can't be that a Jinshi himself would sell himself!"

“Hehehe… He wants to sell his wife right after passing the imperial examination. Could it be that some high-ranking official wants him to be his son-in-law?”

As citizens of the capital city, they had seen all sorts of things and were able to piece together the truth of the matter in just a few words.

This is exactly the effect Li wanted. She wanted the people of the capital to see Yang Chengyun's true face, and then she could divorce him legitimately. It would be best if she could ruin Yang Chengyun's reputation.

"It doesn't necessarily mean that a high-ranking official wants him to be his son-in-law. How can a daughter of a wealthy merchant be worthy of a scholar?" Li said viciously.

Before today, this person was my lover and the one who slept with me, but I didn't expect that he would turn against me immediately after returning from the banquet.

If the maids and servants around him had not been careful, he might have been killed.

Hearing what Li said, there was an uproar at the scene.

Yang Chengyun's mind was in a mess because of his wife's words.

If it is discovered, if what he has done is found out, then he will not be able to continue his official career.

Yang Chengyun stared blankly at the onlookers as they spoke with their mouths opening and closing.

"I've heard of Jinshi masters abandoning their wives to become the son-in-law of a wealthy family, or of Jinshi masters not wanting their fiancées at home. This is the first time I've seen a Jinshi master selling his wife." A man said in astonishment. He was also shocked by this development.

"I'm afraid this scholar has a dark heart!"

····

Everyone was stunned by Yang Chengyun's action.

It's rare to see someone with such a cruel heart.

"It's more than that!"

Li said softly, "Before I married Yang Chengyun, he had two wives. It was just a coincidence that his first wife had an accident when he passed the examination and could not be found. His second wife eloped with everyone else when he passed the examination and took all the family property."

Yang Chengyun is not the only smart person in the world. As soon as Li spoke out the matter, some people understood what was going on.

"How can there be such a coincidence in the world? Look at the knockout drug and the helper. Could it be that he sold all his previous wives?"

"It must be, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence that my wife died just after I passed the exam."

"Madam, how did you find out that there was something wrong with this beast?" The person who asked the question was unwilling to call Yang Chengyun "Mr. Jinshi" and directly called him a beast.

"Then I have to thank Dad. If my father hadn't told me when I got married that there was nothing fishy about my husband's first two wives, I would have been fine."
