Chapter 861: The great scholar PEI man Xi Lou (4)

Translator: 549690339

The envoy of the demon barbarian tribe was the center of attention. Not only the officials and the scholars, but the commoners of the capital were also paying attention to this major event.

Their original topic was whether the Imperial court should send troops to assist the Barbarian demons. Slowly, the news of the northern barbarians ‘great inquiries spread through restaurants, brothels, and other places.

“Nonsense, how could a vulgar barbarian have any knowledge to speak of, to make the Directorate’s Grand Chancellor admit defeat? Which fool made up this rumor?”

No one believed such a rumor and scoffed at it.

In the eyes of the common people, the Imperial College was an official school, a place that produced literary stars.

The status of scholars was very high.

But precisely because of this, after the news was confirmed, the marketplace was filled with curses. The people of the capital no longer discussed whether to send troops after tea and meals, but jointly attacked the Directorate, saying that they were an insult to the country’s constitution and the great Feng.

They were a bunch of idiots.

Xu yinluo, a mere martial artist, can be the best poet in Dafeng. It can be seen how bad the scholars in the Imperial College are. They’re a bunch of good -for- nothing people.

“You sound like you’re looking down on Xu yinluo.”

“I didn’t mean it that way. I’m just angry at the useless Directorate.”

what a great humiliation, to actually lose to a barbarian in knowledge. What a great humiliation, is there no one else in Da Feng? ‘

At the relay station.

The young man with vertical pupils, Xuan Yin, returned from outside with a small box of books on his shoulder. He deliberately put it down to create a commotion and laughed loudly at peman Xiluo and Huang Xian er, ‘

“The Imperial College is a bunch of useless scholars, I only said that I wanted to borrow books for brother PEI man and they did not even dare to stop me. Don’t look at how they were scolding big brother outside, it just showed that they were afraid. I’m afraid of your knowledge.”

Although he felt that reading was useless, he felt that it was great to be able to kill the spirit of the human race in the field of reading.

“It’s just. book exchange, a book exchange …”

PEI man Xi Lou picked out the books in the box as if he had found a treasure.

“That Grand Chancellor is the most knowledgeable person, but even he is not as good as you, big brother. It seems that the human scholars are just so-so.”

Xuan Yin laughed.

He was exhaling with pride!

“The Grand Chancellor has profound knowledge, but he can’t represent the entire human race. There’s an extraordinary woman in the palace, and her

knowledge is amazing.”

PEI man Xi Lou picked one of the four books and started reading it with great interest.

Three days had passed since the Directorate’s ‘Dao discussion’. The demons and barbarians in the diplomatic mission were both astonished and surprised to find that their leader, peman xilou, had become a popular figure.

He became the center of attention and brought great shock to the humans.

Huang Xian ‘er fiddled with the Rouge she had bought from the shop and asked casually, ‘”‘Now that your reputation is good enough, the next step is to negotiate?”

These few days, she had not been idle and had stuffed many beautiful fox girls into the hands of many officials.

“It’s not enough.”

PEI man Xi Lou didn’t even raise his head as he continued reading,

“I heard that the day after tomorrow, the Imperial City will be holding a cultural gathering, and it just so happens to be related to the War in the North. A cultural gathering was good, it was good to become famous. Xian ‘er, spread the word that I’m going to ask Yun Lu Academy’s Grand scholar Zhang Shen to teach me about military tactics at the cultural conference and hope that he can attend.”

“Yun Lu Academy’s great Confucians might not even bother with you.” Huang Xian er’s tone was lazy.

“The letter of challenge has been issued. If he doesn’t come, then he’ll let me have it for nothing. Isn’t that better?” PEI man Xi Lou laughed, he suddenly thought of something and said, ‘

“That’s right, we can’t go up to clear cloud Mountain. We’ll be suppressed if we go. I’ve inquired about it, and he’s a student of Yun Lu Academy.”

“Alright!”

The vertical pupil youth became excited. He could feel that brother PEI man had become “stronger” in the eyes of these humans.

Brother PEI man’s plan was proceeding smoothly.

Before one wave had settled, another wave rose. The scholars were still studying and copying the ‘Northern temple ceremony’, immersed in the vastness of this great work. Suddenly, they were shocked by PEI man Xi Lou’s heroic feat of asking the great scholar Zhang Shen to teach him military tactics.

What did this barbarian mean?

After smacking the Directorate’s face, he was now smacking the Yun Lu Institute’s face?

This time, it became lively. The scholars of the Imperial College were both angry and expectant at PEI man’s actions.

Yun Lu Academy was not to be trifled with.

That barbarian didn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth and asked Yun Lu Academy’s Grand scholar Zhang Shen to teach him military tactics, asking for trouble.

They only hoped that the great Confucians of Yun Lu Academy would temporarily put down their pride. If they were disdainful and refused the barbarian’s ” advice “, then they would become the barbarian’s stepping stone to his fame.

Imperial study, small court meeting.

Emperor yuanjing sat behind the big table and glanced at the ministers with a cold face.

“What do you think of the recent events?”

He was, of course, referring to peman xilou’s series of high-profile actions, using knowledge to control the Imperial College, throwing out the “Northern temple ceremony” to make a name for himself among the scholars, and his desire to seek advice from the great scholar Zhang Shen at the cultural conference.

“This person intends to make a name for himself in the capital. He just wants to build up his reputation and increase the bargaining chips.”

“Hmph, you think that the Imperial court will back down just like this? You’re delusional.”

“Even if he really wins against Zhang Shen, we won’t back down at all.”

Emperor Yuan jing frowned. The more they said this, the more they were afraid of PEI man Xi Lou, and regarded him as a great figure, a great scholar. Once there was a problem with his mentality, he would change it. During the negotiations, they would be affected.

How could their attitudes be the same when they were negotiating with an unknown kid and a world-famous great scholar?

“We need to control his momentum. It’s best if we can destroy his momentum and the momentum he has created,” chief advisor Wang stepped out and said in a deep voice.

“We can only look forward to Zhang Shen now,” Emperor Yuan jing snorted coldly.

Wei Yuan shook his head and laughed.

Huaiqing Manor.

Dressed in a simple and elegant Palace dress, Huai Qing was holding a volume of the “Northern temple ceremony” borrowed by the Directorate in his hand and was reading it tirelessly.

Xu Qi ‘an and Lin’ an were sitting at the same table. One of them was frowning, while the other was frowning.

When huaiqing wasn’t paying attention, the mounted man peeled a grape and stuffed it into Xu Qi ‘an’s mouth. The latter spat out the seed and asked, “”ls this lousy book really that godly?”

Huaiqing nodded slightly. Without even raising his head, he said, “If PEI man Xi Lou was born in Da Feng, he would definitely become a famous scholar and leave his name in history.”

Xu Qi ‘an took a deep breath and said, “this person was able to produce the” Northern temple ceremony, “so he must be very familiar with The Art of War.” Daring to challenge Zhang Shen meant that he had considerable confidence. Zhang Shen’s “six sparse on military tactics” has spread far and wide. This PEI man Xi Lou knows of Zhang Shen, but the latter doesn’t know of him.”

In all fairness, he didn’t want to see the Barbarian race gain any benefits. It was imperative for Da Feng to send troops, but he couldn’t let the demon barbarians of the North benefit so easily.

In the past twenty years, the demon barbarians had frequently plundered the border, burned and killed, and even ate people. In Chuzhou, Xu Qi ‘an saw with his own eyes how the refugees were forced to eat and sleep in the wild.

He had also seen the poor people living a hard life because of the continuous Wars.

In the entire Da Feng, Chu Zhou was one of the poorest States. It was constantly plagued by war and all of this was because of the barbarians.

Huaiqing pursed his pink lips and said with a rare solemness,

“Zhang Shi was once on the battlefield in his early years. However, due to his unsuccessful career, he resigned from his post. He had some understanding of The Art of War, but that was decades ago. He’s been living in seclusion in the Academy for decades, and I’m afraid he’s abandoned The Art of War.” Xu Qian’s heart sank.

In fact, in his previous life, the only military law he knew about was his grandson’s military law. Not only did he know about it, but he had also memorized it.

Of course, Xu Qi ‘an wouldn’t memorize this kind of stuff herself. This was an extracurricular author that the teacher had instructed.

So many years had passed, and he had almost forgotten about it.

Thanks to the spirit-refinement realm, his primordial spirit had transformed and transcended mortals. He could recall the contents of his grandson’s militarv tactics.

Moreover, Jiuzhou had extraordinary power. In his view, the military tactics of this world tended to be more open and violent. For example, on the battlefield, a rank four expert could lay flat on the cavalrymen made up of ordinary soldiers.

He didn’t need to pay too much attention to tactics.

However, Sun Zit s military tactics, which were born in the mortal world, were more inclined to ‘micro-manipulation’ and paid more attention to details.

“You’ll be joining me at the astronomical Association the day after tomorrow.” Huaiqing said.

“If Zhang Shen attends, Erlang will definitely attend. It’s not good for me to disguise myself as him.” Xu Qi ‘an frowned.

“In that case, disguise yourself as someone else and act as my guard.” Huaiqing was quick-witted and gave a suggestion.

“Alright,” he said.
