Awaken Chapter 56

Above South Yufu.

A huge flying boat hovered in the air.

The entire flying boat was built like a dragon, a brownish-yellow dragon.

This was the Great Wei Dragon Boat.

Generally speaking, only for extremely important matters would the dragon boat be used.

The whole dragon boat was 300 feet long and 15 feet wide, and it was filled with golden-armored guards, the Golden Armoured Iron Riders, an extremely powerful elite of the Great Wei Dynasty.

In front of the golden-armored guards stood a total of five people.

Two old men with pale white hair, one in a green robe, the other in a white robe, emitting an ineffable aura all over their bodies, these were great scholars, true great scholars.

A single look could deter and kill demons.

Such great scholars can reach the heavens and have their own standings, above for heaven and earth, below for the people, of high moral character and fame for thousands of years.

The two great scholars stand on top of the dragon boat, looking calm.

And the three around him are three martial generals, clad in light armour and not wearing weapons, but he is the earthly weapon.

A true powerhouse, standing there alone as if he were a mountain, giving people a terrifying sense of oppression.

Although Great Wei has fallen from its heyday, it does not mean that it is weak.

The dragon boat descended.

Li Guangxin and the others came to this place and paid a deep obeisance towards the dragon boat on the vault of the sky.

At this moment, the dragon boat slowly descended, rolling up a terrifying sand and dust.

“Set.”

A great Confucian slowly spoke, and the sand and dust instantly fell to the ground, being fixed on top of the ground, unable to move.

This was the power of a great Confucian.

It was a bit of an exaggeration to say that the words came out of the law, but it had some of the power of the Immortal Way, but it could not do what martial artists and cultivators could do.

“My name is Li Guangxin, I am the Prefect of the Southern Yu Province, see you all, my lords.”

“Greetings, my lords.”

Li Guangxin did not know who the court had sent, only that it was two great scholars, and three generals, while the rest of the people shouted in unison.

But now that he saw such a show, even the golden-armored iron cavalry had come, he was naturally shocked in his heart.

“Where is Xu Qingnian?”

The green-robed great Confucian spoke up as he directly asked where Xu Qingnian was.

“Mr Xu is in the middle of the tribute courtyard, yesterday a demon came and attacked, fortunately Mr Xu’s will was strong and he did not let the demon succeed.”

Li Guangxin replied with his head bowed, not daring to look the great Confucian in the eye, for rumour had it that a great Confucian could tell whether a person was loyal or treacherous just by looking at them.

Li Guangxin was not an official who had done wrong, but he had done some shameful things.

Naturally, he was a little afraid to face up to them.

“The Tribute Court? Chen Lao, let’s go.”

Hearing that it was at the Tribute Courtyard, the green-robed great scholar did not think much about it and walked straight towards it.

The latter did the same and followed the green-robed great Confucian along.

As great scholars, they could observe the qi of literature, and since the courtyard was filled with the qi of haozheng, they could see it at a glance, so they could just follow the qi of haozheng.

The remaining three military generals, two of whom followed, and one of whom raised his hand, coalesced to produce a holy decree.

“Li Guangxin, listen to the decree.”

“The Emperor decrees that in the year of Wuchang, a great talent has emerged in Nan Yu’s province, who has written a superb article, which is a sign of the prosperity of the state of Great Wei.

“I am so grateful.”

The military general spoke up, and after saying this, he delivered the decree into Li Guangxin’s hands.

The latter was terrified, and although he was extremely sophisticated, he still had a smile on his face that could not be concealed.

The 3,000 pieces of gold and the 20 maids were just a pa*sing flicker, but the point was that the Yunhe suit was a symbol of honour, equivalent to the emperor remembering him, and if there were any vacancies in the court in the future.

If there is a vacancy in the court, or a vacancy in that county, he can go up there as a matter of course.

Although it would take time to wait, the officialdom itself is a place where seniority simmers, and sometimes at a certain point, one basically never gets to go up in one’s lifetime.

But now, with His Majesty’s reward, within ten years, he will be able to move up one rank.

Sometimes there are only a few positions, and there are only a few eyes on them.

“Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness.”

Li Guangxin accepted the decree with fear and trepidation, as if it were a precious treasure, and then looked at the other side and said.

“This lord, my subordinates have already had a feast prepared, I wonder if a few generals would be kind enough to take a break.”

Li Guangxin spoke out, wanting to invite the other side to stay for a meal, or to climb up the friendship.

“No.”

“We will be leaving soon, and His Majesty is anxious to wait for the article.”

The other party shook his head and turned to leave, walking quickly towards the Tribute Courtyard.

The reason for his refusal was simple: firstly, there was indeed an urgent matter, and secondly, Li Guangxin was not worthy of being invited to dine with him.

This is what is meant by an official of the capital being a third-ranking official.

Li Guangxin did not feel embarra*sed or humiliated as he watched the other party leave. It was normal to invite someone and if they said yes, it would be best, but if they did not say yes, it would be justifiable, just like the magistrate of Ping’an County inviting himself to dinner and not wanting to take care of him.

“I really envy Xu Da Cai.”

Li Guangxin muttered a sentence, while putting the holy decree properly into his sleeve.

At this moment.

The Southern Yufu Tribute Courtyard.

Thirteen masters had arrived early to wait outside the tribute courtyard.

Suddenly, someone spoke out, pointing to a place not too far away and said.

“It’s Great Confucian Chen Xin and Great Confucian Zhou Min, these are the two great scholars who have come.”

“Great Confucian Chen Xin? Confucian Zhou Min?”

“I didn’t expect these two great scholars to be here in person.”

“The two great scholars of the Hanlin Academy, Xu Da Cai is greatly honoured.”

The crowd of scholars exclaimed in amazement, and also inexplicably soured a little.

In their eyes, these two could be considered the proud sons of the heavens, gods in the hearts of countless scholars, second only to the saints kind.

After all, the saints were too distant, not producing one at any time for five hundred years, and Zhu Sheng died five hundred years ago, so naturally everyone was in awe of the saints, while for the great scholars such was true reverence.

Because this is a living person.

“Students have met Great Confucian Chen Xin and Great Confucian Zhou Min.”

Someone spoke out and bowed Avray towards the two great Confucians.

From the heart, the salute was a great one.

“Where is Xu Qingnian?”

However, the two great Confucians appeared and did not return the salute, they were great Confucians and no longer needed to return the salute, not because they were forced to, but because they were afraid that they would not be able to eat.

The green-robed Great Confucian Chen Xin spoke directly, opening the door.

“It is in the inner courtyard, Great Confucian Chen Xin, the student will take you there.”

Fu Zi Liu was the first to speak, pointing to the inner courtyard and saying.

“Good.”

Great Confucian Chen Xin nodded his head.

At that moment, Master Liu led the two great scholars forward, and as for the two generals, they followed behind, they were not involved in the affairs of the readers, nor did they want to be, and they came over for two things this time.

One, to protect the Confucian scholars.

Two, to deliver a message.

The group arrived at the inner courtyard with great pomp and circumstance.

In the middle of the room.

Xu Qingnian was indeed a little weary.

He had transcribed close to a hundred articles, and while he had been able to complete them earlier, he was bored later.

As she was writing, a footstep sounded at that moment.

At that moment, Xu Qingnian couldn’t help but to get into the spirit of things, calculating the time, it should be someone from the court.

Bang Bang.

A knock sounded on the door. Xu Qingnian tidied up his clothes a little and then opened the door.

When the door opened, two old men stood in front of him.

They were both very old, in their seventies and eighties, but they did not have the aura of aging, instead they were in high spirits.

The two men were surrounded by a vast aura of righteousness and righteousness, making people inexplicably feel awe and goodwill at first glance.

Liu and the others stood around them in a student-like manner.

But beside the two great scholars stood two middle-aged men clad in soft armour, not angry, but with an inexplicable majesty in their eyes.

The pressure they exerted was so great that at first glance, a normal person would have been a little scared, or would not have dared to look at them directly.

However, who is Xu Qingnian?

The half-saints were his brothers, and although the great Confucian was worthy of respect, why did he not dare to look at them?

“I, Xu Qingnian, have met you all, my lords and teachers.”

Xu Qingnian was not condescending, not the least bit fearful, and appeared to be incredibly confident.

“Good! A talented man.”

“Not bad, excellent heart.”

In an instant, the two great scholars let out loud laughter, their more serious faces instantly gentler, their eyes filled with laughter and satisfaction.

How?

You can even praise yourself just by saying hello?

Is that not necessary?

Xu Qingnian was a bit stunned.

How can this be a compliment?

“Qingnian, the two great scholars just gave you a compliment, you have good character and are extremely strong-willed, that’s why they were so happy.”

Master Liu spoke up and explained to Xu Qingnian.

When this was said, Xu Qingnian then understood, no wonder the first time he saw a few people, there was inexplicable pressure, it turned out to be heart appreciation.

By the way, what did Kanshin mean?

“Please come in, several lords.”

Xu Qingnian opened his mouth, inviting people inside, and not having to stand outside and wait dryly.

“What is this?”

Great Confucian Chen Xin looked at a copy of the transcribed article on the table and said with some curiosity.

“Sir, this is the article transcribed by the student.”

Xu Qingnian replied.

“En, you should not come in.”

Hearing that it was a transcribed article, Chen Xin immediately spoke up and told the rest not to enter.

The other scholars did not dare to say more and retreated outside, not stepping into it.

The great scholar Chen Xin also did not directly view the article, instead, he directly rolled it up and included it, and looked at Xu Qingnian again and said.

“Transcribing a hundred copies, little friend Qingnian, you have really put your heart into it.”

Chen Xin was somewhat impressed.

The fact that he had transcribed a hundred copies was proof that Xu Qingnian had indeed put his heart into it.

“Sir, you are too kind, I am just doing my duty.”

Xu Qingnian said modestly.

“En, you have character, modest and elegant, a diamond in the rough.”

The great Confucian Zhou Min opened his mouth to praise, and then, not caring about anything, spoke directly.

“Little friend Qingnian, are you interested in coming to my White Deer Academy?”

“If you are interested, I can recommend you.”

The great Confucian scholar Zhou Min said so, directly pulling Xu Qingnian in, and when the husbandmen outside the door heard this, one by one, they soured.

White Deer Academy, this was one of the four great academies of Great Wei.

The top school of learning.

How many scholars wanted to get in, and they were still recommended by the great scholars, sour.

“No, I say, Elder Zhou, why do you have to recruit good seedlings when you see them?”

“Qingnian, don’t bother with him, come to my Song Yang Academy, it’s better than the White Deer Academy.”

Great Confucian Chen Xin was somewhat out of breath.

“How can you call this robbery? When the exams are over, you can come to the capital to find me, and I will take you to the White Deer Academy and enroll you directly.”

Great Confucian Zhou Min glanced at Great Confucian Chen Xin, then pulled Xu Qingnian and said.

“All right, the matter of robbing people, let’s wait until Qingnian has gone to the capital, what’s the use of fighting here? Yingtian’s Yue Lu’s, they are not convinced either, don’t lose face.”

Great Confucian Chen Xin said in an unpleasant manner.

Immediately afterwards, he looked at Xu Qingnian and said with a gentle smile.

“Little friend Qingnian, I will take the article away first, before you go to the capital, write a letter to me, I will treat you to dinner, this is my token, come directly to the residence, no one will dare to stop you.”

Great Confucian Chen Xin smiled as he took out a token and handed it to Xu Qingnian.

And Zhou Min also took out a token and said.

“This is the old man’s, come to the capital and write a letter, better come at noon, go to Chen Lao’s house and finish eating, then come to my house, don’t eat too much.”

Great Confucian Zhou Min said after he was not willing to be weak.

When this was said, Xu Qingnian could only smile awkwardly.

And the few generals behind him followed suit at this point and spoke.

“Brother Qingnian, my name is Xu Rentian, the Duke of Wei is my family’s old master, he thinks highly of you, this is my family’s token, take it, all the provinces and counties everywhere won’t dare to do anything to you, when the time comes come to our house, we will prepare good wine and food for you, as well as beauty.”

“Qing night brother, I Li Da, An Guo Gong is my family’s old master, also and you respect you, my family token, come to the capital must have to come, the old master prepared good wine and food, there is also Xu family beauty is not as beautiful as my Li family, come before I heard that you are also a martial arts practitioner, so I will not be literary.”

“Qing night brother, I Zhang Lin, the Duke of Xin Guo is my old master, he values you more, the token you take, do not listen to these two guys nonsense, their family is also called beauty? Don’t listen to these two guys, their family is called beauty?

The three took turns to speak and belittle each other, while Xu Qingnian already had five tokens in his hand.

Ah …… This.

The husbands outside were all silent, what else was there to say?

The three of them were all silent.
