The Imperial College's

Eps. 10: One Car

During the day, when the sun was already far above the bamboo tip, Huang Yunxi walked out from the gate of Dong Hua Palace, the imperial palace of the Hu Dynasty. He stepped lightly while humming cheerfully.

His hand held a sizable bundle of satin cloth containing food, fruits, money and several other items. The bundle was given by Sanqi as he was about to exit the Liuli Palace. The waiter said he was worried that Huang Yunxi was not getting a good meal at the Royal Academy or going hungry halfway. Huang Yunxi's appearance was now nothing more than a woman fleeing from home.

When he reached the outer gate, he saw Tianqi standing up. Huang Yunxi looked around. He patted his own forehead because he had completely forgotten something. Huang Yunxi had come early in the morning on foot, it was already noon and he could not walk any longer to return to the Royal Academy!

Huang Yunxi glanced at Tianqi. The moment the servant's eyes saw him, Tianqi immediately rushed over to Huang Yunxi. That personal servant of Yuwen Yue seemed to have something to say to him.

“Mr Princess, My Lord Mud awaits you in the carriage,” Tianqi said as he lowered his head, then pointed to a luxurious carriage parked not far from the gate of Dong Hua Palace.

He was actually lazy to meet Yuwen Yue. The man had already appeared once this morning and Huang Yunxi did not want to see him again. But what is the power? Rather than him walking alone under the scorching sun, it was better for him to reconcile for a moment with the man until he arrived at the Royal Academy.

Without much talking or laughing, Huang Yunxi then followed Tianqi. The horse-drawn carriage with the words “Yue” swayed as Huang Yunxi's legs walked up the wooden stairs. Inside there, she saw Yuwen Yue was sitting sweetly with her eyes closed. The man's eyes then opened when he felt a small movement from Huang Yunxi.

“Why did you sneak out of the Royal Academy?” yuwen Yue asked when Huang Yunxi had already obtained a seat.

“Taking paper.”

“Paper?”

Huang Yunxi then took out some high-quality sheets of paper which made him come to the palace and hand it to Yuwen Yue. Yuwen Yue stared with a questioning gaze, what was the intent of this mischievous disciple.

“Paper in your reading room is ugly. Not suitable for writing calligraphy.”

“The Royal Academy does not lack money to buy good papers. Yunxi, remember that you're still on time.”

“Teacher, if you don't want it already. Let me just make a food pack then.”

Just as Huang Yunxi was about to squeeze the precious papers, Yuwen Yue immediately withdrew her hand and grabbed the papers, folded them and kept them beside her seat. Huang Yunxi stared lazily, this was the behavior of people who were willing but ashamed to ask.

“Daughter Xiyue's giving should not be wasted.”

“Terlarah. Teacher, I heard my father's officials talking about me,” Huang Yunxi said. He had indeed heard that the ministers in the court were alluding to his name when Yuwen Yue finished giving the report. Huang Yunxi wanted to ascertain the truth by asking Yuwen Yue directly.

“Yes. They did mention your name in front of His Majesty.”

“Ck. Are they short of work to find a topic to talk about?”

“You must learn and obey if you do not want to be talked about again.”

“Teacher, whatever I do will definitely not escape their sight. Those fucking officials, I'd cut their pay if I was their boss!”

Huang Yunxi's foul-mouthed. His mouth will get dirty filled with harsh words when he feels upset or angry. No matter if he said it in front of an honorable person or commoners, he would still say it without any burden. Yuwen Yue only sighed tiredly while shaking his head.

A few moments later, the train they were riding was broken. Huang Yunxi who was about to fall asleep was instantly aghast and her heart beat in shock. Yuwen Yue also seemed to be experiencing the same thing. The man now sat down while holding his body with both hands.

“Young Master, our horse is surprised again!” tianqi exclaimed from outside.

“Teacher, what is this?”

“Young Master, in front there is Miss Su walking towards us!”

Hearing Su Jiayu's name, Yuwen Yue's face turned sour. He sat back quietly, then closed his eyes.

“It's okay,” Yuwen Yue told Tianqi.

Huang Yunxi glared. Is this guy crazy? The chariot's towing horse was startled and was now out of control, but the man instead sat down quietly and said it's okay?

“Young Master, Miss Su is getting closer!” tianqi exclaimed in a panicked tone.

“Crash it!”

Wow, what a crazy guy!

Huang Yunxi was not in deep thought with Yuwen Yue. It should have been the man coming out and helping Tianqi control the horse, instead of remaining silent like nothing had happened. Yuwen Yue seemed to really want to carry out her intention of bumping into Su Jiayu. No. this can't be allowed. If until Su Jiayu was injured because of this, not only Yuwen Yue would get into trouble. He will also be hit.

The woman then jumped forward. He snatched the horse control rope from Tianqi's hand then kicked the servant out. Tianqi fell to the ground, while Huang Yunxi was now a coachman. He turned the horse's running direction to the left, to the shoulder of the empty road. In one pull, the horse finally stopped and the carriage also stopped speeding.

“Teacher, you are absolutely crazy!”

“Did you just call yourself?”

Yuwen Yue who knew the actions of this disciple would inevitably feel annoyed. In fact, he had deliberately done that so that Su Jiayu who had always chased after him knew that she did not want to be disturbed. This was not the first time his horse had lost control and had almost run over people. Every time it happened, there must always be Su Jiayu.

Women like Su Jiayu were truly dangerous. He was willing to do anything to attract his attention. One day, it did not rule out the possibility that Su Jiayu would involve even more people. Somehow Yuwen Yue had to explain his dislike.

Yuwen Yue then got out of the carriage and jumped down, passing by Huang Yunxi who was still breathing. Huang Yunxi did not realize that they had stopped right in front of a very famous building in the capital, which had made her punished by Yuwen Yue some time ago.

Restaurant Muyun. Yes, they stopped across from Muyun Restaurant. Huang Yunxi followed her teacher in surprise but was unwilling to ask. As the man's foot stepped on the terrace floor of Muyun Restaurant, a small object fell from his body without the man noticing.

Huang Yunxi picked up the thing. It turns out to be a book. In front of him it says “Investigation Report: Suicide Case in Royal” Academy.

His hand reflexively opened the report book. The contents of the report caught Huang Yunxi's attention. He wondered why there was such a case in the Royal Academy.

“You must not carelessly read,” said Yuwen Yue while seizing the report book that fell from the hands of Huang Yunxi.

“Teacher, it turns out there is such a thing huh?”

“Not your business. Tianqi, escort Huang Yunxi back to the Royal Academy!” yuwen Yue's orders on the newly arrived Tianqi.

“Wait. Teacher, answer my question first!”

“No. Yunxi, your task is only to study well.”

People say that Muyun Restaurant in addition to a place to eat, the top floor is often used as a place for various transactions buying and selling rare items. They say that it is the most suitable place to find information because the people there are people who like to travel to various places until they know the events or news that is happening or they've heard.

“Alright. Teacher, I'm hungry. Can I come with you?”

“Eating only. Can't do anything.”

The pair of teachers and students ordered a special room on the second floor. Yuwen Yue who did not like the noise chose a nice and quiet place. The menu that was ordered was also very expensive.

“Teacher, today I paid for it!” huang Yunxi.

“No. Where there is a teacher who is offered a meal by his student,” Yuwen Yue refused.

“Ada.”

“No.”

“Teacher, I just got money from the palace. If not used, I'm afraid the money will rot.”

“Stupid. Where there is such a thing. How long have you been studying at the Royal Academy? Why is it that the more days instead of getting smarter, the more stupid?”

“Teacher, I mean it. Look, very much right?” huang Yunxi asked as she opened the bundle of cloth she had brought.

Yuwen Yue sighed resignedly. All right, this time he'll let the bad girl treat him. Yuwen Yue knew very well the intention of Huang Yunxi who had deliberately switched the conversation so that she would still bring him into Muyun Restaurant. Okay, this girl is smart now too.

The food they had finally come. Huang Yunxi and Yuwen Yue dined in silence. Outside, Tianqi was standing at the door. A moment later, the male servant exclaimed,

“Young Master, Third Young Master is here!”

“Send him in!”

A man dressed in deep blue then entered. In his left hand was a sword that was neatly slit. If noticed, his age might not be much different from Yuwen Yue. Merely, his face was slightly more oval and slightly duller than Yuwen Yue.

Third Young Master? Ah, it turned out that this newly arrived man was Yuwen Rong, the attendant of Yindai Pavilion. Already Huang Yunxi had guessed, this Yuwen Yue had come not just to eat, but all of you to discuss the case with Yuwen Rong.

“Sit.”

Yuwen Rong sat down on the chair beside Yuwen Yue.

“How?” asked Yuwen Yue then. Yuwen Rong was about to say something, but he glanced at Huang Yunxi to make the girl pause her food feed.

“It's okay. Just say.”

“Ah, okay. Look, based on the results of the autopsy officer's examination, it turns out that there is poison powder left in the body's mouth.”

“Poison powder? What poison?”

“We can't confirm yet. First Young Master, do you have any ideas?”

“Entahlah. The Royal Academy Medical Center has just caught fire and has not finished repairing, I cannot be sure what means we can use to detect the poison,” Yuwen Yue said as she glanced at Huang Yunxi.

Oops, the main suspect of burning the Royal Academy Medical Center is here!

“Tian Academy is coming in a few weeks, but we can't even solve the case yet. If until the people of Tian Academy find out, the image of our Royal Academy will definitely be bad.”

“Teacher, Tian Academy will visit?”

“Ya.”

“Why didn't you tell me?”

“I just reported it to His Majesty this morning.”

Huang Yunxi also knew about Tian Academy. Yuwen Yue was right, if until the people of Tian Academy knew that there was a suicide case in the Royal Academy that had not been revealed, the image of the Royal Academy would definitely be bad and the Dong Hua Empire would definitely tarnish its name!

His brain was thinking of an idea. The right path right now is to find the type and origin of the poison left in the body of the suicide. He knew Yuwen Yue and the Yindai Pavilion would not be able to use the Royal Academy Medical Center to detect the poison.

Trings. Like a lamp, an idea flashed through Huang Yunxi's mind. Before the system left, he had once said that Huang Yunxi could get whatever she needed just by thinking about it. Perhaps, Huang Yunxi could try it now.

“Teacher, I have a way!”

Yuwen Yue and Yuwen Rong instantly turned their attention to Huang Yunxi.

“I have a tool that can be used to detect the poison!”

“Really?” yuwen Yue asked in disbelief. And Yuwen Rong.

“Really. Teacher, give me a minute!”

Huang Yunxi then turned around, got up then walked away from the two people surnamed Yuwen. Huang Yunxi hid behind the curtains of the room, then closed her eyes. His brain thought of a set of poison detection devices that could work quickly.

A magic bag tub, that set of poison detection devices suddenly appeared in front of Huang Yunxi. A set of test tubes, a drip pipette, a beaker complete with another set of lab equipment was directly in his hands. The girl then returned to the table where Yuwen Yue and Yuwen Rong were at.

“What is that thing?” yuwen Yue asked as Huang Yunxi placed down the equipment he had obtained miraculously.

“True. Miss, what's that weird thing?”

“This is a tool to identify toxins. Teacher, we should check it out immediately!”

Although it was unbelievable because the thing Huang Yunxi brought was very strange, Yuwen Yue and Yuwen Rong tried to convince themselves. This girl's equipment might be a try. After finishing the meal session, Yuwen Yue, Huang Yunxi and Yuwen Rong then left Muyun Restaurant. The three rushed to Yindai Pavilion to try to identify the poison with the tool Huang Yunxi had brought.
