Emperor Yuan Jing opened his eyes.

The old eunuch continued: "Pei Man Xilou is willing to bow down."

Emperor Yuan Jing showed an extremely surprised expression, pondered for a few seconds, and said slowly:

"Then Xu Xinian is Zhang Shen's disciple, majoring in the art of war. I didn't expect him to have such an accomplishment. It's rare. Although this son is Xu Qi'an's cousin, he is also a scholar of the Imperial Academy. He won Pei Manxilou, but he can do it." accept."

Xu Qi'an voluntarily resigned from office, but Emperor Yuan Jing also decreed to deprive him of his title and official position, and expelled him from the court.

Xu Xinnian is that guy's cousin, and now he has won against Pei Manxilou, when outsiders talk about him, they will inevitably mention the equally talented Xu Qi'an, and then accuse him of "persecuting" Zhongliang.

This is the only bad thing.

However, Xu Xinian's status as a concubine was hand-picked by him, and his talent was also due to his insight, so it was not a big problem.

On the whole, Emperor Yuan Jing was quite relieved. Compared with the little gossip, losing to Pei Manxilou was the real embarrassment.

The imperial court was ashamed, and so was he, the king of the country.

When the emperor, the most important thing is two things: power and image.

The gloom between Emperor Yuan Jing's brows disappeared, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Talk about the process in detail, and I want to know how he won Pei Man Xilou."

The old eunuch hesitated for a moment, stepped back silently, then lowered his head, and said, "The Shu Jishi Xu Nian took out a military book. After Pei Manxilou read it, he was so impressed that he was willing to admit defeat."

"Book of War?"

Emperor Yuan Jing didn't expect this, he said in astonishment: "What kind of book of war."

Zhang Shen of Yunlu Academy admits that his "Six Shus of the Art of War" is not as good as Pei Manxilou, and those military books compiled by the Imperial Academy are just old wine in new bottles.

The old eunuch swallowed: "The military book is called "Sun Tzu's Art of War", yes, it is written by Xu Qi'an."

After speaking, he heard rapid breathing in the bedroom.

Even if he didn't raise his head, he could still imagine how ugly His Majesty's face was at the moment.

A few seconds later, Emperor Yuan Jing's voice came without emotion: "Get out!"

The old eunuch felt relieved, lowered his head, and left the bedroom as if fleeing. Behind him, there was the sound of utensils and vases being smashed.

The imperial court was not ashamed, but this time, His Majesty, the embarrassment was huge... The old eunuch sighed.

It is conceivable how the people in the capital will talk about His Majesty. The emperor not only persecutes Zhongliang for his own selfishness, but now the scholars in the capital are overwhelmed by a barbarian.

The majestic king of a country has been reduced to a laughing stock, so it is no wonder that His Majesty will be furious.

...........

The literary meeting was over, and the book of war did not return to Xu Xinnian's hands in the end, but was "robbed and plundered" by the Tai Tuo to stay.

The honorable military general and the scholars present had great opinions, but they did not dare to openly disobey this respected senior scholar.

Even Huaiqing didn't dare, so he left a little unhappy, and went straight to Huaiqing Mansion with the guards.

People from all walks of life dispersed, and on Yaoman's side, Pei Manxilou looked a little dignified, and Huang Xian'er also put away her coquettish manner, her pretty face covered with frost.

Not to mention the impulsive and violent vertical-eyed boy.

After the three got into the carriage, no one spoke. In the breathless atmosphere, Huang Xian'er took the initiative to break the freeze and asked:

"What else do you have in mind?"

Pei Manxilou was expressionless. After a few seconds of thinking, he said lightly:

"Although Wenhui lost, my reputation couldn't go any further, and it even took a big hit. But the Dafeng officials won't ignore me because of this, and the effect is still there. It's just that Xu Yinluo got in the way, and the follow-up All of my plans fell through."

He let out a long sigh: "This man is amazingly talented, I have to admire him. In the past, I admired his poetic talent, his talent, and his reputation, but after today, I have a deep fear of him, and even fear him. .

"Fortunately, he is at odds with Emperor Dafeng. No, fortunately, he and Emperor Dafeng are mortal enemies. Otherwise, if he leads the army in the future, our god clan will be in danger."

Huang Xian'er smiled sweetly: "I think so too, so I plan to pick a few pretty beauties to send."

Pei Manxilou shook his head and said, "Will he be short of women?"

Huang Xian'er sighed softly, showing her long legs intentionally or unintentionally, caressing her chest with bare hands, and said charmingly: "Then I will appear on the stage in person, it will be fine."

Pei Manxilou smiled: "Just wait for your words."

After a pause, he said: "Don't worry, just keep running for the next few days, try to win over some big officials, and try to recover as much damage as possible. After the negotiation is over, let's visit this legendary figure together. Xuanyin , you can't go."

The boy with vertical pupils refused to accept it, and asked anxiously, "Why?"

Pei Man Xilou sneered and said: "Xu Qi'an is an out-and-out martial artist, your words are not serious or serious, and if you anger him, it is very likely that you will be beheaded on the spot."

The boy with vertical pupils stared, "He dares! We are the mission, if he dares to kill the mission, the Dafeng court will not spare him."

Cutting off the mission meant a break between the two countries. Under the current background of jointly fighting against the Witch God Sect, the Dafeng court would not let this happen.

Huang Xian'er poked Xuan Yin's head, and said with a smile: "He even dared to kill the Duke, if you are not afraid of death, we will not stop you. You can weigh your own weight.

"My Lord Zhujiu asked you to come to practice because I have high expectations for you, but if you die here, His old man will not care."

Yaozu has always been ruthless when it comes to training juniors, but Zhujiu is a snake, especially cold-blooded.

If it can grow, it should be cultivated vigorously. If it dies, it is because of its own inability.

The law of the jungle is the law of survival.

...........

Huaiqing Mansion.

After returning to the mansion, Huaiqing waved away the maids and guards, leaving only Mount Xiang and Xu Qi'an in the living room.

"It really is you. I haven't found you after looking for a long time. If I didn't enter the shed, I wouldn't be sure of your identity."

Zhan Zhan happily pulled Xu Qi'an to the seat, wanting to sit with him.

Princess, we can't sit at the same table, it's too unruly...... Also, my face in my previous life was so handsome that it shocked the party, you didn't realize at the beginning that you are a bit seriously face blind.

Just as Xu Qi'an thought about it, he heard Zhuan Zhuan say with admiration: "You are so smart, Yi Rongcheng is such an ordinary man, don't just look at it and forget it, you won't notice it at all."

Xu Qi'an glanced at her blankly, and sat down at another table silently.

Zhan Zhan opened her watery peach blossom eyes with a look of grievance.

"The book of war was written by Duke Wei, and you are using your hand to suppress Pei Man Xilou?" Huaiqing drank his tea and glanced at his stupid younger sister who was getting more and more unable to control his emotions.
