It showed the eagerness and excitement in his heart.
The old eunuch looked at Emperor Yuan jing, who was meditating with his eyes closed, with fear and trepidation. He quietly retreated and came to the door of the bedroom. He frowned and asked, “”What’s the matter?”
The young eunuch whispered a few words in his ear.
The old eunuch’s eyes suddenly widened with a complicated expression. He lowered his head and returned to Emperor Yuan jing’s side. “Your Majesty, this old servant, this old servant has something to report.”
Emperor Yuan jing didn’t open his eyes. He simply replied with a ” hmm ” and looked uninterested.
“There’s a new situation at the cultural exchange. After Zhang Shen admitted defeat, the lucky Shu man of the Hanlin Academy. Xu niannian. stepped forward and wanted to discuss military tactics with PEI man Xi Lou …”
Emperor Yuan jing opened his eyes.
The old eunuch continued, “PEI man Xi Lou admits defeat .
Emperor yuanjing looked extremely surprised. After a few seconds of silence, he said slowly, ‘
“That Xu niannian is Zhang Shen’s disciple and specializes in military tactics. I didn’t expect him to have such attainments. Although he is Xu Qi ‘an’s cousin,
he is also a noble of the Hanlin Academy. It is acceptable that he won against PEI man Xi Lou.”
Xu Qi ‘an had resigned, but Emperor yuanjing had also stripped him of his title and official position, and expelled him from the court.
Xu niannian was that guy’s cousin, and now that he had defeated peman xilou, when outsiders talked about him, they would inevitably talk about Xu Qi ‘an, who was equally talented, and then accuse him of ” persecuting ” the loyal and good.
This was the only bad thing.
However, Xu niannian’s identity as a lucky man was handpicked by him, and his talent was also due to his discerning eyes, so there was no big problem.
All in all, Emperor Yuan jing was still quite pleased. Compared to the rumors, losing to PEI man Xi Lou was truly embarrassing.
If the Imperial court lost face, he, the ruler of a country, would also lose face.
There were two things that emperors paid attention to:Power and image.
The gloominess in Emperor Yuan jing’s eyes disappeared, and a faint smile appeared on his face. “Tell me the details, I want to know how he won against PEI man Xi Lou.”
The old eunuch hesitated and silently took a few steps back. He lowered his head and said, ” Shu ji shi, Xu Xinian, took out a military book. After PEI man Xi Lou read it, he prostrated himself in admiration and willingly admitted defeat.
“A book on The Art of War?”
This was something Emperor Yuan jing did not expect. He said in surprise, “”What book on military tactics?”
Even Yun Lu Academy’s Zhang Shen admitted that his ” six sparse military tactics ” was inferior to PEI man West Building, and the military books that the Hanlin Academy cultivated were just new bottles of old wine.
The old eunuch swallowed his saliva. that military book is called ” Sun Zi’s military law. it’s, it’s … It was written by Xu Qi ‘an.”
After he finished speaking, he heard the sound of rapid breathing in the bedroom.
Even without raising his head, he could imagine how ugly the emperor’s expression was at the moment.
A few seconds later, Emperor Yuan jing’s emotionless voice was heard. “Get out!”
The old eunuch was relieved. He lowered his head and ran out of the chamber. Behind him, the sound of utensils and vases being smashed could be heard.
The Imperial court had not lost face, but the Emperor had lost. lot of face this time … The old eunuch sighed.
One could imagine how the people in the capital would talk about the Emperor. Not only did the Emperor persecute the loyal and good for his own selfish reasons, but the scholars in the capital were now suppressed by a barbarian. In the end, it was the man who was expelled from the officialdom by the Emperor who turned the tide.
It was no wonder that the Emperor would be so angry when he became a laughingstock.
After the Civil meeting ended, the military book did not return to Xu niannian’s hands. Instead, it was ” forcefully ” snatched by the Grand Tutor.
The noble generals and scholars present all had great opinions, but they didn’t dare to publicly disobey this respected senior of the Confucian school.
Even huaiqing didn’t dare to do so, so he left unhappily and went straight to huaiqing Manor with his guards.
The various forces dispersed. On the Barbarian side, PEI man Xi Lou’s expression was somewhat grave. Huang Xian er also retracted her charming appearance, her pretty face as cold as ice.
Not to mention the impulsive and violent young man with vertical pupils. After the three of them got into the carriage, no one spoke. In the suffocating atmosphere, Huang Xian er took the initiative to break the tension and asked, ”
“What other plans do you have?”
PEI man Xi Lou was expressionless. After a few seconds of thinking, he said,
“Even though I lost the cultural gathering, my reputation can’t go any further, and it even took a big blow. However, the officials of the great Feng dynasty will not ignore me because of this, and it will still be effective. However, with Xu yinluo’s interference, all the subsequent plans have been ruined.”
He heaved a long sigh,”this person is shockingly talented, I can’t help but admire him.” In the past, I admired his talent in poetry, admired his talent, and envied his reputation. But after today, I have a deep fear of him, even fear.
“Fortunately, he is not on good terms with the Emperor of Dafeng. No, fortunately, he is a mortal enemy of the Emperor of Dafeng. Otherwise, if he were to wield a weapon in the future, our Shen clan would be in grave danger.”
Huang Xian er smiled. I think so too. That’s why I’m going to pick a few pretty girls to send.
PEI man Xi Lou shook his head,”he’s not lacking in women?.”
Huang Xian er sighed softly, intentionally or unintentionally revealing her long legs. She touched her chest with her bare hands and said charmingly, ‘”‘Then I’ll go out personally. That should be fine, right?”
PEI man Xi Lou revealed a smile, “I was waiting for you to say that ..”
After a pause, he said, ” there’s no hurry. We’ll continue to run around these few days and try to win over some officials of the great Minister. We’ll try to recover as much losses as possible. After the negotiations are over, we’ll visit this legendary figure together. Xuan Yin, you can’t go.”
“Why?” the teenager with vertical pupils was not convinced and asked anxiously.
PEI man Xi Lou sneered. Xu Qi ‘an is a true martial artist. You don’t know how to control your words. If you anger him, he might just kill you on the spot.
The teenager with vertical pupils glared. We are the diplomatic mission, and if he dares to kill us, the Imperial court of great Feng will not spare him.”
The execution of the diplomatic mission meant that the two countries had broken off. With the current situation of fighting against the witch God religion together, the Imperial court of Da Feng would not allow such a thing to happen.
Huang Xian er poked Xuan Yin’s head and said with a smile, “”He even dared to kill the high Duke. If you’re not afraid of death, we won’t stop you. You should measure your own weight.
“The candle Dragon Master asked you to come here to train because he had high expectations for you. However, he wouldn’t care if you die Here.”
The monster race had always been cruel when it came to training their juniors. Zhu Jiu was a snake and was particularly cold-blooded.
If he could grow, he would nurture him. If he died, it would be his own fault.
The law of the jungle, the law of survival.
Huaiqing Manor.
After returning to the residence, huaiqing dismissed the palace maids and guards, leaving only Feng Ji and Xu Qi ‘an in the living room.
it’s really you. I couldn’t find you after looking for a long time. If I didn’t enter the shed, I wouldn’t even be sure of your identity.
The mounted man happily pulled Xu Qi ‘an to sit down with him.
Princess, we can’t sit at the same table. It’s against the rules … In addition, my face in my previous life was so handsome that it shocked everyone. You actually didn’t realize it at the beginning. You’re a Little Blind.
Just as Xu Qi ‘an was thinking this, he heard Ming Miao say with admiration, ‘ you’re so smart to disguise yourself as such an ordinary man. Don’t forget it after one look. You won’t notice it at all.
Xu Qi ‘an looked at her expressionlessly and sat down at another table.
Ming Ming’s peach blossom eyes were wide open and she looked aggrieved. “The militarv book was written bv Lord Wei, usinq vou to suppress peman
xilou?” Huaiqing sipped his tea and glanced at his foolish sister, who was losing control of her feelings.
“Yup!”
Xu Qi ‘an smiled and nodded.
Huaiqing nodded slightly. This made sense. In the current world, only Wei Yuan could write a military book that could make PEI man Xi Lou submit, Zhang Shen gasp in admiration, and the Grand Tutor so excited.
The book on military strategy was written by Wei Yuan … She was a little disappointed. In her understanding, dog slaves were omnipotent.
“I’m sure you don’t remember what’s written in the military book,” Huaiqing asked.
“I don’t remember.” Xu Qi ‘an shook his head.
Huaiqing nodded disappointedly. Although she would definitely be able to read the military book in the end, as a person who liked books, she was not willing to wait.
Forget it, I’ll go and meet Lord Wei later … Huaiqing thought.
After chatting for a while, Xu Qi ‘an left.
The framed girl left with him. Out of huaiqing Manor, she stared at Xu Qi
‘an.”The book on The Art of War was really written by Wei Yuan?”
