Madam, protect me!

It took only three days for the students of Wansong Academy who were proficient in the six arts and were arrogant on weekdays to completely surrender to the new teacher.

He knew all the skills of etiquette, music, archery, charioteering, calligraphy, and mathematics, and was proficient in all of them.

And his proficiency was not just ordinary proficiency.

He achieved perfection in every subject.

His casual advice often made the students suddenly enlightened, and when he taught, even the teachers of the academy would listen to his lectures.

Wansong Academy.

In Li Nuo's mathematics class.

All the students listened very seriously, and even several old teachers listened attentively.

Zhao Zhiyi sat in the back row, looking at Li Nuo who was explaining the questions in the front, with a slightly absent-minded look.

These days, she finally witnessed with her own eyes that there were really people who could be excellent in the six arts.

This also made her more determined to keep him in Zhao State.

But... what method should be used?

Song Yiren sat beside Zhao Zhiyi, propping her chin with one hand, staring at the figure in front of her with a dazed look.

Although she didn't understand what he was talking about, she felt a little proud when she saw those old gentlemen with gray hair and big beards who looked very knowledgeable asking him questions respectfully.

Especially in the past few days, the envious eyes of the female students in the academy made her happy and useful.

After a math class in the academy, Li Nuo and Yiren went back to the embassy together.

In the past few days, Li Nuo taught them for two hours every day.

The content of his classes included calligraphy, painting, math, music, archery, and imperial examinations. As for etiquette and laws, each country was different, and they relied more on rote memorization. There was nothing to teach, and they needed to rely on themselves.

Yiren took his hand and said, "Let's go to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables and go back to cook."

After these days of getting along, she has completely replaced the identity of his wife.

The two pretended to be a couple, which was indeed the right choice.

The talented ladies in the academy who admired him wanted to offer themselves to him, but fortunately she stopped them and didn't give them any chance.

She had been firmly carrying out the tasks assigned to her by Song Jiaren and Li Anning, and they really should thank her.

Just after the two bought vegetables and returned to the embassy.

Another mansion in the capital of Zhao State.

A man walked quickly into a hall, bowed and said to someone, "Your Highness, the six-subject champion of Daxia, after helping the fourth prince to catch the thieves organization in one fell swoop, has been teaching the six arts to the students at Wansong Academy these days..."

The man in gorgeous clothes put down the memorial in his hand and said, "What's the big deal? The imperial examination is only three months away, and he is not going to take the exam in person. Could it be that the king has hired so many masters at a high price, but they are still not as good as him alone?"

The man said, "That being said, according to our investigation, the students of Wansong Academy have made great progress in the past few days. If they continue, I am afraid that Yunxi Academy will really be suppressed by Wansong Academy in the imperial examination..."

The man in gorgeous clothes paused, looked up and asked, "Is that person really so amazing that he can do this in just a few days?"

The number of Jinshi in the imperial examinations of the four major academies over the years is not much different. This time, their investment in Yunxi Academy is far greater than in previous years. He does not believe that one person can change or even reverse this situation.

The man said seriously: "Your Highness, don't underestimate the champions of six subjects. Throughout history, no matter which country, there has never been an excellent champion of six subjects. The top students of Wansong Academy have made progress almost every day. This is what the spies we planted in Wansong Academy said personally. It can't be false..."

The man in gorgeous clothes frowned. He had countless advisers, but no one could do this.

What did King Sheng promise him to let such a capable person work under him?

He thought of something and asked: "Didn't he respond to the invitation sent last time?"

The man said: "The relationship between the Sixth Princess and him seems to be extraordinary. He didn't respond to the invitations sent by the three princes."

The man in gorgeous clothes thought about it and finally said: "Forget it. No matter how talented he is, he is only one person after all. Even if King Sheng wins the imperial examination, it can't affect the overall situation. Let him go..."

It would be great if such a talented person could work under him.

But if others don't want to, he can't force them.

The struggle for the throne must be fair and square. If you use any shady means, it's ok if you are not discovered. Once you are discovered, you will completely lose the qualification to inherit the throne. No one dares to violate the taboo openly.

Zhao State, Embassy.

After Li Nuo sent away another guest, he closed the door of the courtyard directly.

In the past few days, there has been an endless stream of guests visiting here, and the threshold of the courtyard is almost broken.

These people are all from the subordinates of the three princes.

Some of them sent silver, often millions of taels of silver notes, some sent antiques and calligraphy and paintings, and some sent women, from loli to queen, from young girls to young women, skinny, plump, pure, charming, all kinds of women were brought, as if they were deliberately testing his preferences.

Even if his will was a little weak, he might not be able to overcome these difficulties one after another.

Fortunately, Li Nuo was knowledgeable and surrounded by beauties of all types, and he didn't care about these mediocre women at all.

Song Yiren watched the woman who was shaking her hips as she walked away, and said with a dark face: "Bah, shameless!"

The woman just now was wearing clothes that were vaguely visible, and even her bra inside could be seen. The collar was almost open to her chest, and a pair of weapons squeezed out deep ravines. She kept winking and seducing who was she? What a shameless woman!

These days, women came to seduce him every day.

She was glad again that she was lucky to come to Zhao State.

She didn't dare to think how presumptuous and shameless these women would be without her watching.

Even if Li Nuo closed the gate of the courtyard, someone would still come and knock on the door.

In order to get some peace and quiet, he and Yiren went to the academy in advance.

These days, teaching in the academy has been very smooth.

The students selected by Wansong Academy are all the best. They have strong comprehension and basically understand everything at a glance. The level of each subject is steadily improving.

When Li Nuo was giving a lecture, Song Yiren was bored and walked out of the academy alone to stroll around.

When she walked to a certain street, her footsteps suddenly stopped.

There was a small stall at the corner of the street ahead. An old man was setting up the stall. Next to the old man, there was a girl of about 16 or 17 years old.

Next to their stall, there was a banner with the words "Divine Prediction".

If it was before, she would not even look at these street fortune tellers.

But now, she is full of curiosity about this line of work.

On the stall, the girl counted with her fingers, looked at a young couple, and said, "You will have children next year, don't worry."

The two looked at the old man, who nodded and said, "Don't worry, you will have both sons and daughters in your life and die of old age."

The couple left a few copper coins and smiled.

They didn't actually believe in fortune telling, but seeing that the old man and his granddaughter were pitiful, they came to take care of their business.

These few coins were just to buy a few auspicious words.

The old man put away the copper coins, looked at their backs as they left, and smiled on his old face, saying, "Forget it, I'll help you get rid of this little disaster."

He moved his fingers slightly.

Not far ahead, the woman suddenly wanted to eat cakes, so she pulled her husband and walked into the cake shop passing by.

Not long after they walked into the cake shop, a flower pot suddenly fell from the second floor of a restaurant in front of them, smashed on the street, and shattered.

At this time, a figure walked to the fortune-telling stall and said, "Old man, fortune-telling."

The old man looked up and was slightly stunned.

The girl looked at the woman in front of her and said in surprise, "Grandpa, it's the beautiful sister in Daxia."

Song Yiren looked at the girl and asked in confusion, "Little sister, do you know me?"

The girl smiled and said, "We met you when we were in Daxia."

Song Yiren didn't remember that she had ever seen this pair of grandfather and grandson, and guessed that the person they had seen might be Song Jiaren.

But she didn't explain. She looked at the old man and asked, "Old man, how much does it cost to tell your fortune?"

The old man said, "Ten taels of silver per time."

This old man's fortune-telling is much more expensive than the last one, but Song Yiren didn't care. She took out a silver note of 100 taels and put it on the table, saying, "I'll tell you ten times."

The old man was stunned, but still accepted the silver note and asked, "What do you want to tell, young lady?"

Anyway, they are about to leave Zhao State, so it doesn't hurt to help her tell her fortune.

Song Yiren looked at him and asked, "You are a fortune-teller, can't you tell me what I want to tell?"

The old man was stunned at first, then smiled and said, "In this case, you can only tell me five times."

Song Yiren said, "Five times is five times."

Although it's half less, it's just right to see if this fortune-teller has real skills.

The old man stretched out his hand, moved his fingers, and said, "You will get married within this year."

Song Yiren was stunned for a moment. How did he know that she wanted to tell her marriage?

However, she also knows some fortune-telling routines. The old man said last time that nine out of ten young girls who ask for fortune-telling are asking about marriage, which is nothing.

She looked at the old man and said, "Then you calculate what I want to calculate next."

The old man counted again with his fingers and said with a smile, "Next, you want to calculate your cultivation level. Within this year, you can break through the fifth realm. It is rare to become a master at such a young age..."

Song Yiren was really dumbfounded this time.

He even calculated her second question.

This is not something that can be explained by fortune-telling routines.

While she was stunned, the old man said again: "Next question, you want to calculate what realm you can cultivate to in this life. This is not difficult. You..."

Before he finished speaking, his expression suddenly froze.

Can't calculate.

He couldn't calculate her future realm.

With his cultivation level, even if she can cultivate to the sixth realm in the future, he can calculate it.

He looked at the woman in front of him in shock.

More than the sixth realm.

Could it be--Martial Saint?
