Ahem, Zhang Jian Shen... teachers, please don't underestimate me!

Li Nuo smiled meaningfully.

I'm not looking down on him. After all, he was also the second in last year's palace examination. If your boy hadn't come out of nowhere, he would have been the real number one talent.

Du Yan said while playing with the chess pieces on the [sand table].

Wang Yangming's temper was even more impatient. He blew his beard and glared: Don't talk about useless things, kid. Just tell the truth. What do you want him to do? He must not be unhappy with him, so he wants to avenge himself and send him there. Are you going to die?

Master Wang, you underestimate your students too much!

Li Nuo looked aggrieved and sighed, Of all the scholars who came out of the Imperial College, he is the only one left. So his character is absolutely fine.

Du Yan was convinced, nodded slightly and said, Hey, the teaching method of the Imperial College is indeed not good. This time the barbarians are going south and disaster is approaching, you can easily see it.

Being wise and wise is indeed the way of the king.

However, in terms of national justice, we must also have the belief to die for our country. This is a role model for our generation of scholars.

Wang Yangming looked slightly displeased and said: Huh. It's a good thing that the old man ran fast and went to Jiannan Road, otherwise I would have to come to the door in person and pull his beard to argue! Treating the Imperial College as a business, look at the training All that stuff.

Naturally, Wang Yangming looked down on Wang Ziyun, the original Imperial College priest.

Five surnames and seven hopes.

Wang Yangming is from the Wang family in Taiyuan, while Wang Ziyun is from the Wang family in Shanxi. Five servers have been released a long time ago, and no one is convinced by the other, and they all claim to be the main lineage of the Wang family.

Li Nuo couldn't help but laugh. How could Comrade Lao Wang still be so childish at such an old age? He consoled him: Master Wang, please don't be angry. Although the Imperial College is a little worse, it still produced Zhang Jianshen. Everyone should know that Zhang Jianshen is the son of a concubine, but this 'concubine' is quite an old man.

Wang Yangming glared at Li Nuo: Don't show off!

Li Nuo pointed to the north: Zhang Jianshen's biological mother is from the Northern Territory.

Northern Territory? Is she the daughter of a barbarian?

Wang Yangming understood immediately.

Li Nuo nodded: Although the Northern Barbarians and us in the Central Plains are separated by Emperor Wu's City, our Dayin caravans are spread all over the land of Kyushu, let alone the barbarian grasslands, even in the territory of the East China Sea Sharks and even the land of Kuafu in the far north. They all leave their footprints...

Du Yan took over the topic: Although buying and selling people in Dayin is against the laws of the court, it cannot sustain the profits during the period. Therefore, many foreign women flow into the Central Plains every year, either to work as brothel singers or as slaves.

Li Nuo said: Zhang Jianshen's status in the Zhang family is very humble. Even if he won the Jinshi last year, he still can't escape the status of a concubine and give birth to a child. Moreover, this 'concubine' is still the lowest level of prairie barbarian girl.

Wang Yangming didn't care about Zhang Jianshen's life experience. He asked in confusion: But what can this do? Could it be that when the barbarian army went south, they would go online because Zhang Jianshen's biological mother is a barbarian girl?

Li Nuo smiled and said: It depends on luck.

Wang Yangming said anxiously: You bastard, what kind of gossip do you know?

Li Nuo whispered: The barbarian tigers and leopards ride two hundred thousand! And the most elite 20,000 of them are always guarding the barbarian commander. And the commander of the 20,000 tigers and leopards, if nothing else, is Zhang Meet Shen’s uncle whom he has never met. Of course, if he recognizes this nephew.”

Du Yan was stunned: Is your news accurate?

If this is the case, there will really be much to write about during that period!

Li Nuo smiled and said, This is definitely first-hand information. I guess Zhang Jianshen doesn't even know about it.

Wang Yangming squinted his eyes, stroking his goatee, and thought: So... the sister of the commander of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry was abducted and sold to the Zhang family by our Dayin businessmen?

Li Nuo nodded.

Of course, when he learned about this the first time, he was also in disbelief.

However, he believed in the ability of [Qingfeng Tower] and would never deliberately lie to him about this matter.

It's not necessary.

[Qingfeng Tower] knew this news because the caravan that smuggled people back then was organized by Qingfeng Tower itself in Chang'an City...

He was originally scheduled to come to Lushan at midnight this morning to discuss military strategies. Why was he half an hour late? It was because I met Wan Shitong, the shopkeeper of Chang'an Qingfeng Tower, on the way.

Li Nuo has finally recognized all the three shopkeepers of Qingfeng Tower.

Yangzhou's fortune teller Li Mao is a thin man with a flattering smile on his face.

Bai Xiaosheng from Yuzhou, a fat and round guy with a Mediterranean head, also helped a lot when he was in Lingnan.

And this know-it-all came to Li Nuo because he had a sense of crisis. After all, in Li Nuo's deeds in Yangzhou and Guangling, there were figures of the other two shopkeepers of Qingfeng Tower.

As the general manager of Qingfeng Building, Wan Shitong can't lag behind!

As the barbarian cavalry headed south, he thought that revealing Zhang Jianshen's life experience to Li Nuo might help.

Do you have an intelligence organization under your command? Otherwise, where would this information come from?

Wang Yangming warned, This matter can be big or small. If your Majesty is displeased, you won't even be able to chop off your head.

Li Nuo replied: This is the news I got from Qingfeng Tower.

Qingfeng Tower, no wonder. Du Yan sighed, In fact, the imperial court has always wanted to ban this Jianghu organization, but there were many obstacles during the period. Some aristocratic families and even important officials in the court have inextricably linked to Qingfeng Tower. . Then it was settled. As long as Qingfeng Tower did not spy on the royal family, the late emperor would have turned a blind eye.

Boy, how sure are you? The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is the best cavalry in the world, and the commander is the confidant of the barbarian commander. How can he betray the barbarians for a nephew he has never met?

Wang Yangming is not optimistic about this matter.

This is not playing house, this is a business with your head on your waist, and there is no room for any distraction.

Just give it a try, it's better than nothing. The [Human Emperor Sword] side is the most important.

Li Nuo said, of course he did not fully count on Zhang Jianshen.

With your relationship with the princess, you shouldn't need us old immortals to be lobbyists, right?

Du Yan winked and joked, without the slightest bit of scholarly demeanor.

In fact, for these [Four-Rank True Artistic Confucian] scholars, etiquette and so on can no longer restrain them, even if Du Yan is the Minister of Rites and is in charge of the world's great gifts.

Well, let's proceed as planned. Three days should be enough for the arrangements.

Li Nuo said.

Afterwards, everyone discussed for a full hour before formulating the plan, down to the formation of each soldier.

After all, the city of Chang'an had few major generals and could not tolerate any waste.

——

Li Nuo left the mountain house and went to the school in front to chat with the students.

We are all young people, so naturally we will not be old-fashioned. Everyone was talking eloquently, pointing out the country, and they were high-spirited.

Although they were all talking on paper, Li Nuo listened with a smile and did not dampen their enthusiasm.

Zian.

Just as Li Nuo was coming down the mountain, Cui Liyan stopped him.

how?

Seeing Cui Liyan who was out of state, Li Nuo was a little curious.

Cui Liyan hesitated to speak. After some hesitation, he gritted his teeth and said, I'm afraid my grandfather is already in danger.

Li Nuo nodded.

There was nothing he could do about this.

It's been so long, and Taishan searched carefully inside and out, but still couldn't find Cui Wuhui.

Cui Liyan said with an ugly face: Without the suppression of my grandfather, the uncles in the family are fighting for power. Our Cui family is almost on the verge of falling apart.

Li Nuo said: Speak directly, how do you want me to help you?

Cui Liyan shook his head: You can't help, and if you intervene, I'm afraid it will make the matter bigger and more serious.

Then what do you mean...

Li Nuo frowned in confusion.

Did this guy just come here to complain?

Cui Liyan took a deep breath: My father said that only through marriage can the Cui family be stabilized.

Li Nuo nodded: That's a good idea.

marriage.

It is indeed the best political method of the family.

However, it is often the family that benefits greatly and the individuals who suffer.

After all, marriage is a lifelong matter.

Thinking back then, wasn't Cui Wugui deciding to betroth Cui Wanwan to him because he was the number one scholar?

Unfortunately, as he was about to soar into the sky, his wings suddenly broke off just as he was about to take off, and the marriage fell through.

But what does Cui Liyan mean by bringing this up?

Is Cui Wanwan going to remarry?

This is a good thing.

He was also worried about how to face Cui Wanwan.

Cui Liyan continued: Wang Jinyan, the legitimate daughter of the Wang family, I believe you also know...

Wang Jincheng's sister? Li Nuo understood instantly and said in surprise, You want to marry her?

Cui Liyan felt a little guilty and said, Yes. Only by leveraging the power of the Wang family can we suppress the restlessness of my family.

Li Nuo nodded and said with a smile: This is a good thing. Master Wang is not only Wang Jincheng's uncle, but also your mentor. This can be regarded as a close relationship! If you two can get married, I will support it.

You...don't blame me?

Cui Liyan looked at Li Nuo with a complicated expression.

Why should I blame you?

Li Nuo was confused.

If I married Wang Jinyan, then Qiluo... Cui Liyan said ashamedly, I have failed her...

Li Nuo couldn't help but feel happy, slapped Cui Liyan on the shoulder, and said educationally: What are you thinking about? If you don't even say anything about it, how can you live up to it? I have told you a long time ago that you and Qiluo We are two people on the same path, how could there be consequences? You are a child of a noble family, and she is a child of the world, so they are totally unrelated.

Cui Liyan suddenly turned red with embarrassment.

How dare something that he has been struggling with for so long be just a joke in the eyes of others?

It turns out that all this was his own fault.

Young people don't know what love is. It was just the sudden onset of hormones at that time.

Li Nuo sighed with emotion: Qiluo is my wife's maid, how could she marry you? Everything is just wishful thinking on your part.

Cui Liyan was a bit unnatural, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to get in.

Haha, you have never been in love, and you have never been in a brothel. You are so young-skinned. It seems that the Wang family has really found a treasure.

Brother Hina.

Wang Jinyan has indeed found a treasure.

Li Nuo laughed and left after seeing this.

Although he had often teased Qiluo before that she was too cruel to find a husband, but if he really wanted to marry her off, he would not let her go...

Um.

The main reason is that she doesn't want to let go of her bun face, which feels great when pinched.

Seeing Li Nuo leaving, Cui Liyan breathed a sigh of relief. The boulder in his heart fell and he felt much more relaxed.

Immediately, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if the sky had cleared up after the rain.

The knot that had troubled me for several days turned out to be easy to untie.

Hey, they say that a woman's face is like the sky in June. It changes at will. I didn't expect you, Cui Liyan, to have this ability! Your expression has changed so much. What did Zian say to you?

The fat Lu Zhishan came out of nowhere and stared at Cui Liyan.

Cui Liyan cursed angrily: Is it none of your business?

Lu Zhishan curled his lips: Think of good intentions as a donkey's liver and lungs. I am worried about you.

Do you need to worry about me? If you have this time, you might as well sharpen your words and your sword, lest you be so scared when you see the barbarian cavalry on the battlefield that you won't even dare to fart.

Cui Liyan said and suddenly laughed, Oh haha, I almost forgot, you don't even have a quarrel yet, so you can stay cool while you're there.

You! This young master will definitely be able to sharpen his skills with words within three days! Keep your eyes open and watch!

Lu Zhishan was furious.

This really hit home for him.

He is similar in age to Cui Liyan, and he is the Jieyuan of Jiangnan Dao, but the result is... not only is his figure and appearance far inferior to Cui Liyan, but his literary and moral cultivation, which he is proud of, has also been put aside by others. Big cut.

Seeing Lu Zhishan's incompetent and furious expression, Cui Liyan felt extremely relieved. He continued to laugh: Haha, I'm still in Jiangnan Jieyuan. When the barbarian cavalry retreats, I will be able to go to Kaoenke next year, and I will be a Jinshi. Even the top pick can compete for what is in the bag. But you can only stare.

If you have not entered the seventh rank, you will not be able to pass the Jinshi examination.

This is a hard condition.

You're so proud, no matter how powerful you are, you're just a little follower of Li Zian!

Lu Zhishan was furious and left with a puff of sleeves.

——

After Li Nuo returned to Chang'an, he went directly to the palace.

Qingyang Hall.

Qingyang was admiring the autumn chrysanthemums by the lake on the wooden bridge in the back garden. Suddenly she saw Li Nuo standing in the far archway corridor looking at her with his naughty eyes. Qingyang suddenly lost his face.

Well, Li Zian, you are really getting bolder and bolder. Why don't you let me know when you enter my palace?

Qingyang shouted angrily with murderous intent.

Eunuch Xiao Deng, who had just reached the door of the back garden, fell to his knees with a plop, in a hurry and about to cry without tears.

He clearly remembered His Highness saying that as long as it was Li Zian who asked for an audience, there was no need to notify him.

Li Nuo gave little Eunuch Deng a look and signaled him to leave quickly.

Little Eunuch Deng quickly ran away as soon as he was granted amnesty.

Li Nuo then walked forward slowly: Who made the princess angry? She is so angry. Look, Qiu Ju is wilted by you.

Qingyang, who was not dressed in palace attire but wore a glazed skirt, stood among the autumn chrysanthemums in the garden, surrounded by stars and the moon, and the person was more beautiful than the flowers.

Qingyang was certainly not angry at Li Nuo for coming in uninvited.

She was thinking about ways to defeat the enemy, but unfortunately she couldn't come up with a good idea. However, Li Nuo had a lazy smile on his face and was not nervous at all. This was the reason why she was angry!
