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

Chapter 208 Become bigger and stronger and create greater glory!

Chapter 208 Become bigger and stronger and create greater glory!
When Zeng Anmin came to the hall.

He naturally felt everyone's gaze.

Following behind Zeng Shilin, he looked at the officials with an innocent look.

Tsk, that old man who looks very steady should be Li Zhen, the current Prime Minister of the Great Sage Dynasty.

Oh, Liu Chengqian is here too? Sitting behind Li Zhen?
Pretending to be a follower of the Prime Minister, but actually being a lackey of Duke Ningguo, tsk tsk.

Eh? Who is that person smiling at me?
"Since Mr. Zeng has come in, please take a seat. Your seat is in the front."

When the eunuch saw the father and son enter the hall, he smiled brightly.

Zeng Shilin just nodded faintly:

"Thank you, father-in-law."

Then, he followed the eunuch and walked forward.

Zeng Anmin was about to follow his father.

But he was stopped by the eunuch.

"Zeng Xianzi, please don't go. Your seat is in the middle of the hall."

When the eunuch saw Zeng Anmin, the smile on his face became even brighter.

The smile on the young face was like a chrysanthemum, with wrinkles one after another.

"middle?"

Zeng Anmin followed the instructions of the eunuch and headed towards the center of the field.

Surrounded by two rows of tables for officials, it was right in front of Emperor Jianhong's dragon throne.

There were delicious dishes on a row of tables.

"This... is a bit conspicuous..."

Zeng Anmin blinked.

"It's not conspicuous! As the meritorious officials of this southern expedition, this palace banquet is held because of your contributions!"

"Don't be modest, sit down!"

The eunuch arranged things for Zeng Anmin with a smile on his face.

"That's good."

Zeng Anmin just sat down.

A voice came to my ears:
"The Princess is here!!"

The next moment, all the officials stood up.

Looking towards the palace gate, they all bowed gently:
"I've met the eldest princess."

Zeng Anmin stood up quickly before he even had time to sit down, turned around and looked towards the door.

The eldest princess was seen wearing a gorgeous palace dress.

The tail swayed to the floor of the hall.

The palace dress was like an embellishment on her body.

Although it obscured her perfect curves, it added an incomparable elegance and majesty to her.

Her perfect face showed indifference.

After arriving at the hall, her dignified face did not change at all, she just bowed gently to the officials:

"Please take a seat, gentlemen."

As she spoke, she slowly walked towards Zeng Anmin.

Zeng Anmin looked up and left.

Eyes facing each other.

"I've met the eldest princess."

Zeng Anmin bowed to the princess in a low voice.

"Ah."

The eldest princess in the hall is always majestic.

The majesty that emanated from her.

Even more like a queen than a queen...

"sit down."

The eldest princess nodded lightly and sat down at the table next to Zeng Anmin.

As a hero of this southern expedition.

Of course you have to sit in a specific position.

"please."

Zeng Anmin laughed softly, then sat down with the princess.
"I haven't seen you for a while. Your Highness has become more majestic. I don't even dare to look up at you when I see you."

The corners of the eldest princess' mouth curled up slightly.

She glanced at Zeng Anmin:
"You shouldn't look up at me."

"Huh?" Zeng Anmin was stunned.

"Recently, there are rumors that you and Sai Chuxue from Xuanzhen Division..."

The princess' eyes became more indifferent, and her voice was faintly cold. She changed the subject and said:

"I'm afraid you have forgotten the task I gave you."

As soon as these words came out.

Zeng Anmin didn't feel much pressure.

Instead, I vaguely sensed a sense of inexplicable...jealousy?
Uh.

probably not.

Zeng Anmin grinned, winked at the princess and said, "I'm doing this for our business!"

"Think about it, what does the Xuanzhen Division do? It is a big consumer of spiritual stones."

"If we can handle this relationship with them well, our business and personal connections will be greatly improved!"

"I will give you a complete divine spear, and give me a complete divine sword."

“We will become bigger and stronger and create greater glory!”

……

The princess was amused by his words and looked at her with a faint smile:

"So, you're going to discuss business?"

"Hey! It's the right material!"

Zeng Anmin nodded repeatedly, with the smile on his face becoming more and more obvious.

He was whispering, so others couldn't hear what they were talking about.

Countless eyes were looking at the eldest princess and Zeng Anmin with frowns.

The relationship between the eldest princess and Zeng Anmin...

Seems a little unusual.

They naturally wouldn't think wrong.

Just look at how harmoniously the two of them get along.

A slight sense of vigilance arose in my heart.

Even the current Grand Tutor Yang Qi looked over here thoughtfully.

Taifu Yang Qi was originally responsible for teaching the royal family's children.

Among his many disciples, the only one he was satisfied with was the eldest princess.

He and the eldest princess are nominally master and disciple.

The eldest princess knew when to act and understood etiquette, and often interacted with Yang Qi.

After a few interactions, they became both teachers and friends.

There will naturally be a desire for political unity.

Therefore, Yang Qi can be considered a member of the Princess Party...

"Duke Ningguo is here!"

Someone suddenly looked towards the entrance of the hall.

As this sound rang out.

Everyone looked towards the door.

Zeng Anmin heard the name.

His eyes became sharp.

After a moment, he hid it again.

In the blink of an eye, he looked up and towards the door of the hall with a smile.

Duke Ningguo Li Jian...

We finally met today.

The door of the main hall.

A slightly thin figure slowly appeared.

The figure was dressed in gorgeous clothes and his face was a little pale.

With just one glance, you can feel the sharp eyes on his face.

Those eyes were just a dull look.

It also makes people afraid to look at it.

"Cough cough~"

As he walked a few steps, he would occasionally put his hand in front of his mouth to cover his coughing sound.

His hair was gray and his face was pale.

He looked like a dying man...

"Meet Mr. Li."

Many officials stood up and bowed to him.

"No need to be so polite, gentlemen."

Duke Ningguo Li Jian had a gentle smile on his face. He did not walk fast, but slowly entered the hall and greeted each official with a faint smile.

He had a gentle smile on his face.

But his eyes are still sharp.

"Da da da."

As his footsteps sounded.

Soon, he arrived in front of Zeng Anmin and the eldest princess.

"I have met His Highness."

Ningguo Duke Li Jian's smile remained the same. He glanced at the eldest princess and asked her about her well-being:
"It has been a long time since we last met. Your Highness's cultivation has become even more powerful."

"I believe that in a few years, my Great Saint Dynasty will produce a world-famous third-rank warrior."

The eldest princess was very polite to him.

She stood up slowly, with a smile on her face:

"Mr. Li, you are too kind. I still need to work hard to cultivate and strive to be on par with Mr. Li one day."

"hehe."

Ningguo Duke Li Jian just smiled and shook his head:

"No matter how advanced my cultivation is, I can't catch up with the pursuit of time. I'm old, and my days are numbered."

As he spoke, he slowly looked at Zeng Anmin who was beside the eldest princess.

The smile on his face remained unchanged.

But Zeng Anmin didn't know if it was an illusion. He could feel that when he looked at himself.

The look on Ningguo Duke Li Jian's face was a little sharper than when he looked at others.

"Is this Zeng Sance, who is known for his three strategies to pacify the world?"

"I have not yet entered the school, and I am honored to meet you, Lord."

Zeng Anmin naturally would not violate etiquette in the hall.

He grinned naturally, looking up at Li Jian with a natural expression on his face:

"The name of the Duke is well-known. Seeing him today, I can see that he is indeed majestic and impressive, which makes people yearn for him."

"Ha ha!"

When Li Jian heard Zeng Anmin's words, his smile became more intense, but he couldn't help but put his hand in front of his mouth and coughed a few times:
"Cough cough cough..."

"This makes people feel comfortable."

"But, I am just a sloppy old man, what's so remarkable about me?"

"Mr. Zeng, you don't have to care so much about your position as Duke."

Having said that, Li Jian left this place with a faint smile and walked towards his own position in front.

After saying this, everyone looked at Zeng Anmin strangely.

Obviously, Zeng Anmin's polite words just now were rejected.

And he even turned the tables on him.

This time.

The whole hall fell silent.

Everyone looked at Zeng Anmin.

I want to see how he answers.

Father Zeng Shilin squinted his eyes and looked at Li Jian who was slowly walking towards them, his eyes flashing with an unknown gleam.

The little fat prince's eyes were a little stunned.

The fourth prince was also slightly stunned, then subconsciously curled up a smile at the corner of his mouth and looked at Zeng Anmin.

"scoff~"

The young man sitting next to the Fourth Prince couldn't help but sneered.

Very harsh.

Zeng Anmin's face slowly turned cold.

He stood up straight.

Looking at Li Jian's back indifferently.

Old stuff.

Is that how you play?
Want to break up in public?
Actually, that’s true. My father is the Minister of War.

The two are natural opposites.

"Oh, then old man Li, please slow down."

"But be careful not to fall."

"I know a few doctors on Jingli Street. I'll ask your family to check your cough."

"I'm afraid you might sneeze and hurt yourself!"

Simple bad breath, ultimate enjoyment.

Zeng Anmin glanced at Li Jian's back and smiled naively.

After saying that, he sat down directly.

After hearing Zeng Anmin's words, Li Jian paused slightly.

Then he turned around, and his sharp eyes made people tremble with fear, looking straight at Zeng Anmin.

"hehe."

Zeng Anmin met his gaze, smiled innocently, and then blinked:

"what happened?"

"It's mainly because I'm young and don't know much about medicine. Otherwise, I would come to your house in person to see you no matter what you say."

……

Li Jian was silent.

He is a duke.

Even if you are young, you can be Zeng Anmin’s grandfather.

If you talk back at this time.

Is he still shameless?
And he just said it himself, he is just a sloppy old man.

Zeng Anmin also continued speaking...

"Pfft~"

The fat prince couldn't help laughing out loud in the hall.

Zeng Shilin was also stunned for a moment.

The eldest princess was looking at Zeng Anmin, who had just sat down beside her, with a smile on her face.

"Princess Ning An is here!"

A sharp voice sounded.

The entire hall fell silent in an instant.

Zeng Anmin could even feel the expression on everyone's face froze.

Duke Ningguo, the eldest princess, the crown prince, the fourth prince...

Whether friend or foe.

All of their faces froze, and some even sounded like they were swallowing saliva.

Princess Ning'an?

An arrogant face subconsciously emerged in Zeng Anmin's mind.

When I was investigating the case of the missing dragon map in Liangjiang County, I met the flat-chested and brainless little princess.

"Da da da."

As the footsteps sounded.

A petite figure appeared in front of everyone.

"Meet Princess Ning'an."

Everyone quickly saluted the figure.

"whee."

Ning An smiled brightly:
"No need to be polite, I just came to take a look today."

As she spoke, she looked over here.

"aunt!"

Ning An spotted the eldest princess and walked towards her quickly:
"Long time no see! A few days ago I asked someone to go to your place to ask for money. How are you preparing it?"

"One hundred thousand taels is not enough this time, give me more."

……

The eldest princess had a forced smile on her face. She glanced at Ning An:
"Well, Auntie knows."

"Thank you, auntie!"

"whee."

Ning An grinned widely, and then she looked towards the prince again, with a hint of surprise on her face:
"Brother Crown Prince, Fourth Brother!!"

"I haven't seen you guys in these days!"

"I'll come and play with you guys in a couple of days! You said you would take me hunting last time, but there's been no news for such a long time!"

"Are you just trying to please me?!"

As she spoke, her expression became extremely unfriendly.

Hear her words.

The Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince both looked frozen.

"No, I'm just busy these days. I will take you there in two days."

The prince forced a smile.

"Really? Prince brother is so nice!"

Ning An's cloudy sky suddenly turned sunny and she smiled brightly.

The two of them answered reluctantly.

"Huh? Uncle Li?! Even you are here?!"

Princess Ning'an looked at Duke Ningguo Li Jian with a look of surprise on her face. She quickly came to Duke Ningguo and looked at him carefully:
"You're not dead yet?!"

……

Duke Ningguo Li Jian’s expression froze.

After a long while, he laughed dryly:
"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. Thanks to Your Majesty, I still have some time to live."

"That's great!" Ning An showed a very sincere smile on his face:
"I can listen to you singing again!"

"The last time I heard you sing 'The Emperor and His Ministers' Dialogue' for Father in the Imperial Garden, it was so beautiful!"

The entire court was silent.

Everyone looked at Ningguo Duke Li Jian in confusion.

"Dialogue between the Emperor and His Minister"?
I didn’t expect that you, the Duke, have this hobby? ! !
Li Jian's face was expressionless at this time.

Zeng Anmin couldn't hold back his laughter and sat behind the table, his shoulders shaking as he said "Kukuku."

He really couldn't imagine it.

This silly girl's fighting ability is so strong!

All the ministers and nobles in the court must retreat!
At this time, Ning An's attention shifted to Zeng Anmin, who was trying hard to hold back his laughter.

"Zeng Anmin?!"

"You're here too?!"

Hear this.

Zeng Anmin's face changed.

not good!

Why did the God of Plague focus his attention on me? !
However, just as Zeng Anmin was about to speak, he heard a voice.

"Your Majesty has arrived!!"

A high-pitched voice sounded.

In an instant, the whole scene was silent.

Under the public eye.

Emperor Jianhong appeared slowly.

He is wearing a dragon robe today, and he looks even more majestic than before.
