My father is a Confucian sage, but the system forces me to be a crude warrior

Chapter 154 Liu Fengnian's affectionate confession? !
That night.

Zeng Anmin was lying in the yard.

The image of Qin Wanyue emerging in my mind was of her beauty under the moonlight, as if she had walked out of a painting.

He gently touched his chin and murmured:
"Sister Qin is only seventeen years old and not yet an adult."

"You have to take it easy."

“Sai Chuxue… doesn’t look very old, but considering that she is Master Xu Tian’s disciple, her appearance may not match her age.”

"Chief..." Zeng Anmin coughed dryly:
"Ahem, let's not consider it for now."

"uncle!"

Hu Zi ran over, looked at Zeng Anmin eagerly, and asked expectantly:

"When will the aunt in black come again?"

Zeng Anmin's train of thought was interrupted by Hu Zi, who squinted at him:
"do not know."

"Oh."

Hu Zi's face was visibly depressed. He held his small wooden sword and curled his lips, looking a little aggrieved:

"Can you take me to her tomorrow?"

It can be seen that the wooden sword has no electricity and cannot blow air through the air, which is a big blow to Hu Zi.

"What sweet dreams are you having? I have to go to school tomorrow."

Zeng Anmin yawned and said, "I'll take you there when I'm free."

Hu Zi shook his head: "My dream is not as beautiful as my uncle's."

?

Zeng Anmin frowned, he looked at Hu Zi and asked, "Why do you say that?"

Hu Zi stared at the wooden sword in his hand: "My uncle told the aunt in black clothes and Aunt Qin that they dreamed about them today..."

"Cough cough..."

Zeng Anmin felt a little uncomfortable because of being choked.

He looked at Hu Zi with some astonishment.

Oops!

This kid has been listening to me as I act like a sea king!
This matter must not be spread out!
Zeng Anmin coughed, and he looked at Hu Zi seriously and said:
"Huzi, you can't reveal your uncle's dream, okay?"

"Why?" Hu Zi looked up in confusion and looked at Zeng Anmin in bewilderment.

"Because someone is still harming my uncle through this dream."

Zeng Anmin looked serious.

"Oh."

Hu Zi nodded thoughtfully: "No one can tell?"

"Of course!"

Zeng Anmin looked determined, and he took a deep breath: "If you don't want to never see your uncle again, then don't even think about leaving!"

"Ok!"

Hu Zi heard this and showed a lingering fear on his face: "I want to tell mother before I go to bed later."

6!

The corner of Zeng Anmin's mouth twitched.

This kid definitely can't keep his words to himself!
"Don't say anything nonsense, do you hear me?"

Zeng Anmin looked at Hu Zi seriously, then he touched his chin.

Feeling that he couldn't just suppress it, he coughed and continued:

"If you behave well, I'll take you to Fa'an Temple to visit Yingchen in a couple of days."

"Hmm?" Hu Zi's eyes suddenly lit up.

It was obvious that he had never forgotten his new friend at Fa'an Temple.

"OK!!"

…………

"It's finally quiet."

Zeng Anmin was riding a horse on the street.

He felt like a lot of the burden had been lifted off his shoulders.

After the Huang Yuangao case was over, what policy the court adopted towards Jiang State and the demon clan had nothing to do with him.

Bai Ziqing also secured his position as Beitidu because of this case, and was promoted from interim to newcomer.

Dad's situation in the court has also stabilized a lot.

And he can finally quietly enjoy the happiness brought by his status as a second-generation rich man.

"Da da da."

The horses reached the gate of the Imperial Academy.

Zeng Anmin immediately saw Liu Xian looking around.

"Brother Quan Fu! You're finally back in Beijing!"

Sure enough, after seeing Zeng Anmin, Liu Xian showed a look of surprise on his face.

He moved quickly from the gate and before Zeng Anmin could say anything, he reached out and grabbed Zeng Anmin's reins.

Lead the horse for him.

“Some days are missing.”

Zeng Anmin asked for leave from the Imperial College before going to Liangjiang County.

It took me more than ten days to come back.

"I miss my brother so much."

Liu Xian complained to Zeng Anmin: "More and more students come to visit my brother these days."

"It took me a lot of effort to get rid of them."

"Haha." Zeng Anmin dismounted, tied up the horse, and walked towards the school side by side with Liu Xian.

"Have you made any progress in these days?"

Zeng Anmin asked with a smile on his face.

Liu Xian scratched his head shyly and said:

"Thanks to my brother Quan Fu, one of my "books" has already entered the Dao. I only need to break through the sixth level to naturally condense the Dharma image and enter the fifth level."

"Yo ho?"

Zeng Anmin was stunned.

He really didn't expect that this kid Liu Xian could actually understand the way of "books".

"You can do it, kid!"

Zeng Anmin patted him on the shoulder, his eyes full of praise:

"As expected of a sixteen-year-old who has won the first prize! I have never seen anyone with a stronger talent for Confucianism and Taoism than you!"

"Brother, you are too kind." Liu Xian said this, his nostrils almost curled up to the sky, and the corners of his mouth were extremely exaggerated:
"As long as we wait for the next spring exam, I, your younger brother, will do whatever it takes to win the title of No. 1 in the imperial examination, so as not to embarrass you, my brother!"

"Ha ha!"

Zeng Anmin laughed out loud.

This kid really knows how to talk!
He is a bit smooth-talking, but why is it that being with him is like being in a spring breeze?

"But...ah."

There was a hint of bitterness on Liu Xian's face, and a hint of sadness appeared on his face.

"What's wrong?" Zeng Anmin raised his eyebrows.

No wonder this guy was waiting for me at the gate. Turns out he was waiting for me here?

"It's okay." Liu Xian waved his hand pretending to be strong.

"It's okay." A smile flashed in Zeng Anmin's eyes.

Are you pretending with me here?
Sure enough, after he finished speaking, Liu Xian's face froze slightly.

He opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Zeng Anmin almost laughed out loud when he saw him like this.

Are you playing hard to get with me, young master?

Let’s go have fun!

"Cough cough."

Liu Xian hurriedly chased after Zeng Anmin, with a serious look on his face:
"Brother Quan Fu, have you ever heard of Wangxianju?"

Zeng Anmin was stunned.

Then he blinked and looked up, hesitantly saying, "Yes, I heard something about it."

"Ugh!!"

Liu Xian sighed, his eyes full of bitterness as he said:

"Wangxianju was founded in Jiangnan. Its owner was Mr. Shen from Jintaiping, the first shipping merchant in Jiangnan."

“In just half a year, Wangxianju has become popular throughout Jiangnan.”

"and then?"

The two of them had already arrived between the classrooms.

Zeng Anmin arrived early today, so there were only a few people in the hall.

Liu Xian sat behind Zeng Anmin and said with a melancholy voice:

"I don't know what kind of magic Wangxianju has used, the food made by its chef is not only delicious, but also more delicious. Not only the food, but even the soup is so delicious that people will never want to leave."

"To be honest, my father and I have tasted the food at Wangxianju. The delicious food they cook can also be made by the chefs of our Liangyou Chamber of Commerce, but the cost is extremely high. One dish even requires two live chickens to extract the flavor."

When Liu Xian said this, his expression was extremely bitter:

"Recently, there are rumors that Shen Jun is no longer content to keep Wangxianju in Jiangnan, and wants to expand to our north." "Developing to the north sounds good, but his first move will definitely be to open a branch building in the capital, and then radiate out to the surrounding areas with the capital as the center."

"My Liangyou Chamber of Commerce is dedicated to serving the people. We have suffered a lot from floods and droughts in the past few years. Now, cloth shops, grain shops, and street shops are barely able to maintain their business. Only the restaurants in the capital and the surrounding eight counties are still profitable..."

"With the coming of Wangxianju, there will be no way for our Liangyou Chamber of Commerce to survive..."

When Liu Xian said this, his face even looked aggrieved.

Zeng Anmin raised his eyebrows.

It was obvious that Liu Xian came prepared.

On the surface, he was complaining.

But he should have already investigated Shen Jun secretly.

Zeng Anmin narrowed his eyes and stared at Liu Xian.

Silence is better than sound here.

Sure enough, Zeng Anmin stared at him for a while.

The bitterness on Liu Xian's face gradually disappeared, and sweat began to appear on his forehead.

The expression on his face also became extremely guilty.

"Have you figured out Mr. Shen's background?"

When Zeng Anmin saw Liu Xian's guilty look, he raised his eyebrows slightly.

"What details?"

Liu Xian looked confused.

"Don't play dumb with me." Zeng Anmin looked at him with a cold look in his eyes:
"I don't believe that the backers behind Jin Taiping can't be found out with the background of Liangyou Chamber of Commerce."

After hearing Zeng Anmin's words, Liu Xian didn't dare to say anything else.

He knew that his thoughts had been guessed by his brother Quan Fu.

"Brother Quan Fu is indeed very thoughtful."

Liu Xian smiled bitterly and said with a guilty conscience:
"According to rumors, Jin Taiping Shen Jun has the support of Zeng Gong."

Zeng Shilin, now many people call him Zeng Gong.

Dad’s status and strength are worthy of such a title.

"Humph."

Zeng Anmin snorted coldly.

Jin Taiping is a person who is trying to use the tiger's skin to wave the banner.

Dad never said that he was the backer behind Jin Taiping.

But, I have never denied it.

"But Brother Quan Fu, my Liangyou Chamber of Commerce cannot extend its reach to Jiangnan."

Liu Xian had revealed the truth to Zeng Anmin, and he smiled bitterly:

"This is just hearsay. As for whether it is true or not, the reason why I told you this today is actually to test your opinion."

Having said that, he took a deep breath and said:
"If it's fake, the elders in the family will definitely do something shameful to make it impossible for Shen Jun's Wangxianju to continue operating in the capital."

"But if it's true..."

Liu Xian pursed her lips and said, "I just ask my brother to leave a way out for the Liangyou Chamber of Commerce."

……

Zeng Anmin didn't say anything.

He just squinted his eyes and thought.

After a long time, he raised his head and asked calmly:

"You said that the current Liangyou Chamber of Commerce is just barely maintaining itself?"

In his impression, Liangyou Chamber of Commerce is the best chamber of commerce in the world.

Even though they had experienced floods and droughts, they still shed a lot of blood for the eldest princess's sake.

Even if it was a broken bone, how could such a large body be barely maintained?

Liu Xian sighed: "I only heard my father talk about the family business occasionally, so I don't know the details."

"Um……"

Zeng Anmin touched his chin, and after a while, he slowly raised his head and said:

"Mr. Shen should come to the capital in the next few days. When he comes, I will ask him to visit your father at Liu Mansion. If there is a possibility of cooperation, Jin Taiping and Liangyou Chamber of Commerce may be happy."

"real?!"

Liu Xian's eyes suddenly showed an expression of extreme surprise.

"Ah."

Zeng Anmin didn't say much, just nodded lightly.

Seeing Zeng Anmin like this.

Liu Xian gritted his teeth, looked around, and said in a very low voice: "Since brother is so sincere to me, I won't hide it from you."

After saying this, he leaned over to Zeng Anmin's ear and whispered in a very low voice:

"In fact, from what my brother knows, the eldest princess's eyes and ears are actually behind some of the industries of the Good Friend Chamber of Commerce."

?

Zeng Anmin heard this.

His eyes were a little glazed.

No, I just used a basic attack, why did you use your ultimate and flash? !

Is it something an outsider like me should know about such an important secret?

"Cough cough."

Zeng Anmin glanced at Liu Xian and said, "Why do you say everything?"

Liu Xian took a deep breath, he was extremely solemn:

"Some people like to bet on the blazing sun in the sky, but some people prefer the stars that are still brewing in the depths."

Liu Xian's voice was extremely serious:
"Brother Quan Fu, whether you believe it or not, ever since I saw you for the first time, I, Liu Fengnian, knew that I would follow you in this life, whether I live or die!"

"Family property is not important. If my brother can become a high-ranking official in the future, ten Good Friend Chambers of Commerce will not be as good as the dust scraped from his fingernails."

This sudden and affectionate confession made Zeng Anmin feel a little unconfident.

"Ah."

Zeng Anmin looked at Liu Xian deeply.

No wonder this kid could become the champion at the age of sixteen.

Apart from anything else, the way this pair of eyes looks at people is something that no ordinary person can match.

Speaking of eyes and ears.

Zeng Anmin touched his chin.

Isn't it time to build my own intelligence system?

Since my father asked me to take the imperial examination.

Then you will definitely enter the officialdom in the future.

To enter the officialdom, you need more than just your father's support.

You must have your own strength.

He glanced at Liu Xian.

At this moment, Liu Xian was looking at him with extremely fiery eyes.

This guy's smooth talk...

It would be interesting to find a way to get him to serve as a diplomatic envoy in the Ministry of Rites in the future.

……

"The Jiang Kingdom's Eastern Cult colluded with the demon race to murder officials of our Great Saint Dynasty!"

"This battle must be fought!!"

“Fighting is the only way to appease the people’s anger!!”

"Do you really think that our Great Saint Dynasty is easy to bully?!"

"That Jiang Kingdom Empress is really abominable!"

"It's a pity that I am just a student now. If I have the chance one day, I will flatten the Ten Thousand Monsters Mountain and retake Jiang Kingdom!"

"..."

Sitting on the seat of the Imperial College.

What Zeng Anmin heard most was the students' indignation.

Although they are at the bottom of society, they still have a desire to serve their country.

But in Zeng Anmin's opinion.

This is totally a talker type of player.

He had no opinion on this.

Qin Shoucheng has not appeared in the Imperial College since today after he went to the Shangshu Residence yesterday.

For two consecutive days, Zeng Anmin didn't see Qin Shoucheng.

When asked, Qin Wanyue said she didn't know either.

The court was calm.

The four fields are stable.

Zeng Anmin looked at this from the perspective of Qin Shoucheng’s disappearance.

He could vaguely feel that the Great Saint Dynasty was really going to send troops.
