Chapter 128 The Grand Master angrily rebuked Lu Qingheng
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
Grand Tutor Qin also had an unpleasant expression on his face. "What?"
"How is this going?"
Jiang Zhouye looked at Lu Qingheng with an angry expression, "The credit for killing King Zhao and forcing Canglong to surrender is right in front of you. Do you dare to acknowledge it, General Lu?"
Those sharp words and strange looks were like roasting Lu Qingheng on the fire.
She was not the only one who knew the truth, so how could she possibly take the credit?
Lu Qingheng immediately stood up and said, "Of course I know this is Jiang Ningwan's contribution, but I don't know what's going on."
Jiang Ningwan and Qin Wenli looked at each other, and as expected, they pretended to be stupid.
The news of the people and the court were not mutually communicated. Lu Qingheng wanted prestige and a good reputation among the people, so he dared to make such a small move.
It's no big deal if you just deny it after it's exposed.
Qin Beihuang also helped out: "I guess the storyteller made a mistake himself."
"This wasn't Qingheng's first time on the battlefield. The reputation of the female general had already spread, and the people mistakenly believed that it was Qingheng's achievement."
"It's not a big deal, just clarify it."
Qin Wenli said, "The storyteller described the battlefield situation in such detail that it doesn't sound like hearsay. Only someone who was there at the time could describe it."
"Everything is accurate, except for the wrong name. It seems like a deliberate rumor."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhouye immediately pointed at the storyteller and asked, "Do you know what the crime is of spreading rumors about an imperial official?"
The storyteller was so frightened that his legs gave out and he fell to the ground. "I didn't do that. How could I have the guts to spread rumors?"
"Someone gave me a storybook and money and asked me to say what was written on it."
The storyteller quickly took out a booklet from his arms.
Jiang Ningwan took it, glanced at it, and raised an eyebrow, "It's indeed detailed."
"Even the conversation between me and the enemy general defending the city is exactly the same."
"But why is Lu Qingheng the only name written?"
At this moment, a maid suddenly appeared in the quiet courtyard and ran towards Lu Qingheng in a hurry, "Miss, what's wrong with you? Someone sent me a message to bring you some medicine."
Yin Huan was shocked to see that the young lady was safe and sound.
Lu Qingheng's face suddenly changed, and he immediately realized that he had fallen into a trap. He gritted his teeth and whispered, "I'm fine, get out quickly!"
Yin Huan didn't understand what was going on and immediately turned around and left.
"It's her! It's her!"
The storyteller suddenly stood up from the ground, took two steps forward, pointed at Yin Huan and said, "She was the one who gave me the storybook."
At that moment, Lu Qingheng's face turned pale.
The guards in the mansion immediately stopped Yin Huan.
Yin Huan's heart sank, and he realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Are you sure you didn't recognize the wrong person?" Jiang Zhouye asked the storyteller.
The storyteller said firmly, "It's her, I'm not mistaken!"
"I don't want the money. I didn't spread any rumors."
Jiang Zhouye then slowly walked towards Lu Qingheng, "General Lu, what is your explanation?"
"This maid just called you Miss, and everyone heard it."
See how she denies it.
It is really despicable and shameless to misappropriate credit.
Lu Qingheng's face was extremely ugly, and he pretended to be angry and said, "I don't know what's going on!"
"Yin Huan! You ordered the storyteller to do it, but was it you who did it?"
Yin Huan knelt down in panic, "I did it."
"Miss, I did it secretly because I saw that Princess Yi and the Second Miss were bullying you too much."
"This slave deserves death!"
Yin Huan reacted very quickly and directly admitted all the blame, and cleared Lu Qingheng of any responsibility.
Lu Qingheng was so angry that he slapped Yin Huan hard in the face.
"Who told you to act on your own?"
Yin Huan's cheeks were red and swollen, but he didn't dare to hide, "This slave deserves death!"
"If I don't teach you a lesson today, you won't know who is the master!" Lu Qingheng raised his hand to continue hitting.
Grand Tutor Qin's expression was serious, and he shouted coldly: "Enough!"
"If you want to teach your servant a lesson, go home and teach him a lesson."
Lu Qingheng felt a little embarrassed and stepped forward to apologize, "I disturbed the Grand Tutor's birthday banquet today. I will come to apologize another day!"
Grand Tutor Qin didn't even look at her, his eyes swept over Qin Beihuang.
"One should be upright and honest."
"As a member of the royal family, you should be mindful of your status and never do anything low-minded or sneaky!"
"Qin Beihuang, go back and cultivate yourself."
"Don't call me your student anymore."
Grand Tutor Qin could not hide his anger. This was not a big mistake, but this poor behavior was really shameful!
Being named in public, Qin Beihuang looked extremely ugly. After bowing and apologizing to Grand Tutor Qin, he led Lu Qingheng out of the Grand Tutor's Mansion in embarrassment.
The guests around were whispering.
"Why is Lu Qingheng stealing other people's work? It's really not like the behavior of a wealthy family."
"Exactly. Doesn't she pride herself on being straightforward and open-minded?"
"I can't believe she did this."
After the two annoying people left, Grand Tutor Qin was still furious and ordered: "No one from the Lu family is allowed to come to our house anymore."
"Yes."
Hearing this, Qin Chengqian was extremely angry. He had wholeheartedly supported the Lu family, but this Lu family was so disappointing!
I forced myself to stay until the end of the banquet and left impatiently.
Qin Beihuang chased Lu Qingheng back to the mansion and asked, "Qingheng, what exactly is going on? Did you really ask Yin Huan to do this?"
Lu Qingheng felt completely humiliated and furious. He angrily shook off his hand and said, "You ask that because you don't believe me."
"You think I'm the kind of person who steals other people's work, don't you?"
Qin Beihuang frowned, "I didn't mean that, but Yin Huan is yours."
He wanted to find a reason to help Lu Qingheng but couldn't find one.
"Master Qin didn't believe me and embarrassed me in public. You also questioned me. What else can I explain? You have already convicted me!"
Lu Qingheng ran back to his room in a rage with red eyes and locked the door.
If she wasn't afraid that Qin Beihuang would be taken away, why would she do this?
Thinking of the contemptuous looks of those people at the banquet, she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.
……
Grand Master's Mansion.
The banquet was over, but Grand Tutor Qin kept King Chu and Jiang Ningwan.
The three of them sat down to drink tea, and Grand Tutor Qin specially asked someone to bring two bowls of crab soup to Jiang Ningwan.
"I heard you liked it, so I asked someone to make some more."
"There's more in the kitchen."
Jiang Ningwan was very surprised, "So many."
"People who practice martial arts must eat enough to have strength. Eat, I won't laugh at you." Grand Tutor Qin smiled kindly.
Jiang Ningwan was not polite anymore.
Qin Taishi added, "I will find someone to clear this matter up. What's yours is yours, and no one will steal it."
"People have the right to know the truth."
Jiang Ningwan was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Grand Tutor Qin would help her clarify the matter. "Thank you, Grand Tutor Qin!"
Grand Tutor Qin smiled and said slowly, "What I hate most in my life is people who steal the credit of others."
Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan's eyes lit up. Is there a story?
Seeing Jiang Ningwan and Qin Shuangchi's curious expressions, Grand Tutor Qin slowly said, "Do you know why I hate Zhou Han's paintings?"
Jiang Ningwan shook her head. Is it related to this matter?
"Zhou Han, that was originally my nickname."
