Chapter 407: Chapter 333 Purple Air Coming from the East (Seeking Recommendations and Monthly Tickets)_1

"Chuyun, what are you doing here?"

Sun Jizong could hardly believe it. He looked at Li Xuan, then at Sun Chuyun. He thought to himself this must be a coincidence, Sun Chuyun must have been just bored and wandering aimlessly, and ended up here, and there is no other connection between the two. Absolutely, there must not be—

"I came here with Li Xuan just now." Sun Chuyun frowned at Sun Jizong, "Please don’t wrong him, father, Li Xuan is a man of great talent, and also a good person."

So, the whole courtyard erupted in a hum again, with all the Guozi Bureau students looking excitedly at the scene.

Long Rui and Wang Jing exchanged glances, both knowing that Li Xuan had undoubtedly been set up.

However, this man’s skills in this aspect are quite impressive—

Meanwhile, Luo Yan felt like grinding her teeth to powder, as she wondered how this had come about. Li Xuan had hardly left her eye-sight for days, how did he get chummy with this girl?

"What makes him a good person?" Sun Jizong felt as though his heart had been stabbed, causing a throbbing pain. As his vision plunged into darkness, and feeling the sting of betrayal, he thought to himself that this is the consequence of his arrogance that his Charm Technique could bring about Li Xuan’s downfall.

But now his beloved daughter had been won over by another, a flower he had nurtured for over a decade, with a well-planned ruse.

Thinking about it, Sun Jizong felt his chest filling with a burning rage, the pent-up resentment about to burst within him.

An elderly man beside him, wearing a jinxian crown with eight lines, thought to himself, "What on earth is this? The girl who claimed to be a witness for Li Xuan turns out to be Sun Jizong’s daughter?"

If he didn’t trust in the character of Sun Jizong so much, he would be suspicious that the man was conspiring with the so-called Hufa of Neo-Confucianism to set him up.

But the sight before him made him frown in deep thought, "Councilor Huichang!"

"I understand!" Sun Jizong glared at Li Xuan with a deadly cold look, "Chuyun, come here now!"

Sun Chuyun hid behind Li Xuan, "I won’t go back, father, please don’t misunderstand Big Brother Li."

Sun Jizong suddenly felt his vision dimming again, as he gradually became afraid - was Li Xuan’s charm technique really that formidable?

He swallowed down the urge to vomit blood, and then, through gritted teeth, accused, "Li Xuan you beast! My simple, naive daughter was deceived by you! But the case of your adultery with my concubine is beyond doubt—"

"Your accusations are a bit far-fetched, Uncle."

Li Xuan interrupted before he had finished speaking, shaking his head dismissively. "When I came here from the Liudao Division, many people saw me en route as witnesses. Moreover—"

He glanced at a figure far in the crowd. A man wearing Xiuyiwei attire stepped out from the crowd.

This man gestured, and a golden talisman appeared from Li Xuan’s body, then saluted the crowd, "Gentlemen, I, Wei Bailong of the Xiuyiwei, am an underling of the left Dudu. Three days ago, Master Li obtained a ’Jinguang Capturing Talisman’ from my Dudu and has been carrying it on him ever since."

Sun Jizong’s expression subtly shifted, his gaze at Li Xuan gradually hardening.

Li Xuan gave a slight smile, gave a casual salute, "If I didn’t come prepared with a safety net, I wouldn’t dare accept your lordship’s invitation."

The ’Jinguang Capturing Talisman’, this divine artifact, functioned as a personal surveillance monitor, capable of recording events over a period of time, and was a great tool for preventing fraudulent claims.

It was a great commodity, yet prohibitively expensive, costing tens of thousands of teal per piece, and thus had not been widely used. But for someone with Li Xuan’s connections, a couple of pieces were within his means.

Li Xuan was no fool, how could he just venture off to the imperial uncle’s mansion as soon as he came to the Capital City? Sleeping overnight at the imperial uncle’s was out of the question.

In addition to preventing any misunderstanding among the girls, it would also avoid raising suspicion in Jingtai Emperor. If he informed the Xiuyiwei Dudu about this beforehand, it would provide an extra layer of protection for himself while also putting his father-in-law at ease. Wouldn’t that be the best of both worlds?

Sun Jizong felt a throbbing headache and couldn’t vent his fury anywhere.

"It seems it wasn’t indeed Earl Jingan." Sun Jizong sneered, and angrily glared with bloodshot eyes, "Capture this Zhang Yue and that wench, and send them to Yun Tian Government!"

If only he could confirm the accusations of adultery, he could still live to strip off this friend’s skin! And that traitorous wench wouldn’t live to see the dawn of the next day.

At this point, Gong Xiaowu’s face had lost all color, "Is the honorable noble intending to eliminate me completely? I swear that I truthfully invited Mr. Zhang to the Guozi Bureau as per the orders I have received."

Zhang Yue gave a furious glare, "Fuck off! Not long after you kidnapped me to the Earl’s mansion, you accused me of having an affair with your concubine?"

No matter how carefree his nature was, he knew this accusation couldn’t be taken lightly, and could not allow it to be verified under any circumstances.

Li Xuan smiled at this and opened his fan, "The Song of Integrity" with a swoosh. Unmindful of the cold winter temperature, he leisurely fanned himself, "Esteemed Uncle, this man isn’t someone you can arrest whenever you feel like.

Before doing so, perhaps you should come with me to explain these false accusations made against me. Though I, Li Xuan, am a man of honor ordained by the Court, as a protector of Neo-Confucianism, I certainly cannot tolerate such insult from you, Mr. Sun."
