After I Married the Disabled War God As My Concubine - Chapter 231

He reluctantly suppressed the strange feeling and continued his lecture. From the corruption of the Jing Dynasty to the start of the Northern Liang Dynasty, to the separation of both the dynasties. He was academically consummate and has a gentle voice. He spoke in a persuasive manner in class, and effortlessly explained the records of historical materials and the analysis and discussion of various historians. The students in the entire amphitheater listened attentively.

It was almost time for the class to end.

“All right. There are still a few minutes left before class ends.” Jiang Suizhou finished one stage of the lecture, returned to the lecture table, and said, “I won’t take up everyone’s time. In the next lesson, we will talk about Huo Wujiu, the renowned general of Northern Liang, who was captured and escorted into Jiang Suizhou’s residence as…”

Before he could say the word ‘concubine’, he came to an abrupt halt.

… What am I talking about?!

Jiang Suizhou was shocked.

Is it because I read that student’s thesis yesterday and was so impressed that I was actually influenced by him and took this unofficial history seriously? It’s absurd to suddenly speak of it in class, as if it really happened…

He startled himself. He was glad that he was not too dizzy at the moment and braked in time, stopping the rest of his words.

Facing a classroom full of puzzled students, he paused and continued with a faint smile, “…as a prisoner. Although Huo Wujiu’s life is legendary, this experience in which he suffered a setback and was reduced to a prisoner is also a particularly interesting highlight of his life.”

After saying this, Jiang Suizhou’s mind was in turmoil again. A trotting horse lamp seemingly popped out in his mind, and many scenes flashed through in an instant, as if… that he really experienced that period of history once.

I must have not slept well, that’s why I’m feeling dizzy. Jiang Suizhou frowned and thought to himself.

Just then, the bell rang.

Jiang Suizhou sorted out his thoughts and said with a smile, “Class dismissed.”

The students in the classroom stood up in twos and threes, picked up their books and backpacks and left the classroom. Jiang Suizhou also lowered his head and turned off the multimedia courseware on his desk.

At this moment, a voice reached his ears.

“Mr. Jiang.”

Jiang Suizhou raised his head and met a somewhat familiar face.

“You are… Fang Cheng?” He thought for a while and asked.

The student nodded.

It turned out to be the student who wrote an unofficial history as if it were proper history in his thesis. Jiang Suizhou didn’t quite recognize the student’s face, but his name was like a thunderbolt. He stopped whatever he was doing, stood straight, and took a serious look at him for the first time.

“It’s you.” He asked, “What can I do for you?”

“I also want to talk to you about my choice of topic.” Fang Cheng said, “Just now, in order to wait for you, I also listened to one of your lectures. I heard what you almost said just now. You yourself believe that Huo Wujiu was imprisoned in Jingwang Manor as a concubine when he was detained in Southern Jing, right?”

When Jiang Suizhou heard this, he frowned a little unhappily.

He had just made that slip of the tongue purely because he had been affected by this student’s thesis. However, hearing this student’s words, that strange feeling in his heart sprouted again.

It was as if … he, too, believed it.

He hurriedly dumped these thoughts out of his head and replied seriously, “Fang Cheng, you should be clear that we are studying history. What is important is not what I think, but how the history is recorded. The unofficial history you are basing on is unfounded, and to study history, you can’t take things for granted like this and put your own ideas on top of the facts.”

“But, you can’t prove that those unofficial records are false either!”

The classroom had gradually emptied during their exchange. Jiang Suizhou remembered that there were other students coming to the classroom later, so he glanced towards the door and took a deep breath.

“You think that Huo Wujiu was humiliated in Jingwang Manor, right?” he asked.

The student nodded.

“Then why did Jingwang, who humiliated Huo Wujiu, still manage to become Emperor safely? Why did Huo Wujiu also assist him until his death?” Jiang Suizhou asked.

“Err…”

Fang Cheng froze.

He hadn’t actually thought of this.

He listened to Jiang Suizhou say, “Researching history is not impervious to reasonable speculations, but your speculation, too, needs to be logical to work.”

After saying that, he turned off the projector and picked up the books on the table.

“Your thesis should be corrected as soon as possible, so as not to delay your defense,” he said.

After saying that, he was ready to leave.

But at that moment, a sound rang out from the door.

It was the sound of a basketball landing on the ground.

He didn’t know who it was, but he was too unruy. He slowly dribbled the ball in the teaching building and walked into the classroom with the ball. The dribbles echoed one after another. Along with the footsteps, a person walked into the classroom.

Jiang Suizhou looked up.

It was a student.

He was wearing a black jersey, exposing his strong and slender arms. He carried a bag on one shoulder, clutching his backpack bag with one hand, while dribbling the ball with the other.

The next moment, the student also raised his head and looked at him.

The student was clean shaven and looked utterly flamboyant. He has got an aggressive and soaring aura, and especially a set of eyebrows that were sharp and piercingly cold.

When their gaze collided, Jiang Suizhou met a pair of dark, bottomless eyes.

A familiar feeling mixed with turbulent throbbing surged in Jiang Suizhou’s heart, leaving him stunned in place.

At the same time, the student’s basketball also dropped.

He stood still, somehow missing to catch the ball. The basketball hit the ground, bounced a few times, and rolled straight to the bottom of the podium.
