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

Chapter 269: Confucianism and Taoism: Examine your conscience and achieve success!

"Crack."

Ji Hongli walked out of the house. After he closed the door, his eyes were solemn.

He was already dressed appropriately at this time.

He took off Ji Hongli's clothes and put them on himself.

His subtle footsteps were heard.

Zeng Anmin did not dare to slack off.

As early as when he and Ji Hongli were "having a good chat" just now, he had quietly observed Ji Hongli's pace, walking posture, and even the strength of his footsteps.

Therefore, when he came out this time, he imitated Ji Hongli's posture in a unique way.

More like Ji Hongli than Ji Hongli himself.

"Whoo~"

After walking out of the room, Zeng Anmin observed his surroundings inconspicuously.

There was no one in the yard.

There were only two servants guarding the gate outside the courtyard.

He walked out of the yard with a calm expression.

"grown ups."

The two servants didn't dare to look at him any longer and bowed to him.

Zeng Anmin just glanced at the two servants calmly and walked out calmly.

The two servants quickly followed and walked forward with him.

After walking out of the yard, Zeng Anmin was no longer in a hurry.

He looked at the huge Jian County Prefecture from Ji Hongli's perspective.

Wherever he went, no one dared to look at him twice, but bowed their heads and saluted him respectfully.

"Tsk."

Zeng Anmin felt emotional.

The servants' genuine fear was different from when he was at home.

In his house, the status of servants is not as high as that of their masters.

But the master was never too harsh on his servants.

Apart from the fact that my father looked down on the servants' respect, the most important point was that his family was a newly rising powerful family.

The hierarchy within the mansion is not as strict as those in the large mansions.

He walked forward calmly, and a familiar voice sounded in his ears.

"Master Ji."

An old voice sounded.

Mr. Xin.

Hear this sound.

Zeng Anmin felt a slight chill in his heart.

coming.

Mr. Xin is the key to his success in building the county.

I felt heavy in my heart.

Zeng Anmin didn't dare show it on the surface.

A gentle smile appeared on his face.

This was the smile on Ji Hongli's face when he saw Ji Hongli meeting Mr. Xin.

"Mr. Xin, His Royal Highness the Southern Prince has been distracted all the way, so he was inevitably a little blunt in his words just now. Don't take it personally."

He looked at Mr. Xin with a smile.

But there was some drumming in my heart.

Mr. Xin is, after all, a third-rank martial artist, and his sensitivity is beyond the comprehension of a fifth-rank martial artist like him.

Hearing Zeng Anmin’s words.

Mr. Xin just shook his head faintly:

"I know what happened today, so there is no need for you to say more, Master Ji."

"I just don't know how the preparations for the foundation of longevity that Master Ji mentioned are going?"

His eyes looked straight at Zeng Anmin.

Hear this.

Zeng Anmin's heart sank.

The basis for longevity?

what?
Even though his mind was full of thoughts, Zeng Anmin didn't show any of it on his face.

In an instant, he also thought of his words.

With a smile on his face, he chuckled and nodded:

"Don't worry, Mr. Xin. I have already taken care of this matter. Please wait patiently for a while."

"I will never let you down."

Hear this.

Mr. Xin frowned slightly.

He narrowed his eyes and looked up at Zeng Anmin.

His gaze was extremely sharp.

It seemed as if he was being sized up from head to toe.

Zeng Anmin naturally saw this thing.

He felt a slight chill in his heart.

Could it be that Mr. Xin is...suspicious?
He dared to guarantee that he had not revealed any clues.

"Sir Ji, why don't I see you holding the jade bone fan today?" Mr. Xin looked at Zeng Anmin for a while, with a look of surprise on his face.

He asked casually.

Zeng Anmin subconsciously wanted to respond perfunctorily.

But the next moment, I was suddenly shocked.

As expected, this old bastard of the third rank... started to doubt me!

He is testing me!
Jade Bone Fan... How come I have never seen Ji Hongli carrying that thing...

He knew that he could reply now: What jade bone fan?
But who knows if the jade bone fan mentioned by Xin Laodeng really exists? !

That would expose the secret directly!
Zeng Anmin can't gamble!

But at this time Mr. Xin was watching him.

He must not talk nonsense.

Time passed extremely quickly.

How to answer? ?
If you don’t answer well at this time, all your efforts will be wasted!

It might even expose your true identity!!
How to do? ?

Zeng Anmin was a little anxious.

His feet felt a little weak.

Suddenly, his eyes fixed!
Got it!

Before he could think about it, his face suddenly turned cold, then he narrowed his eyes, turned around and faced Mr. Xin with his back.

He looked at the two servants following behind him.

"Snapped!!"

A loud slap was given.

"Humph!!"

A golden light flashed in Zeng Anmin's eyes, and his face was extremely cold.

His body suddenly became extremely powerful and full of righteousness.

"Just now, before I came out of His Highness the Southern Prince's room, did the two of you slack off on your duties?!"

Confucianism and Taoism!

Ask your conscience!!
Righteous and upright!

"No no……"

"Then why did I see you two looking terrified when I came out?"

Zeng Anmin's voice became increasingly cold.

"I don't know..."

"The other day I went shopping on the street and embezzled three taels of silver..."

……

The servant answered stupidly...

"Humph!"

Zeng Anmin snorted again and withdrew the righteous energy that was in operation.

Then he turned around, with a faint smile on his face, and looked at Mr. Xin and said:

"What I just discussed with His Royal Highness the Southern King is indeed confidential. I just suddenly remembered and gave my servant a lesson. Please don't blame me, Mr. Xin."

See this scene.

Mr. Xin also showed an understanding smile on his face and nodded:

"Lord Ji is thoughtful and it should be so."

As soon as these words came out.

Zeng Anmin's heart slowly calmed down.

Old stuff.

As expected, I had already become suspicious.

If I hadn't shown my righteous conscience in time, I'm afraid...

Confucianism and martial arts cannot be practiced at the same time, so how could Ji Hongli, who is proficient in Confucianism and Taoism, be the King of the South in disguise?
This Mr. Xin is quite alert!
"Well, I won't stay any longer. I will discuss countermeasures with my colleagues after I return."

Zeng Anmin smiled and nodded.

Then he glared at the two servants with a cold face:
"go!"

Having said this, he walked forward.

The two servants didn't dare to say much. They just looked at each other in fear and followed Zeng Anmin out of Jianjun Mansion.

Only Mr. Xin watched Zeng Anmin's receding back.

His brows furrowed slightly.

Then he slowly shook his head, laughed at himself, and walked towards the yard again.

"Wow~"

"Wow~"

In the yard, the sound of Mr. Xin sweeping the floor continued to be heard.

…………

Out of Jian County Prefecture.

Zeng Anmin clenched his fists.

Only then did he feel truly relieved.

"Go home."

"Yes."

The carriage moved slowly towards the direction of Shangshu Ji Hongli's residence.
