Arknights, are you a good person?

In front of Wei Yanwu, the general did not put on airs. He did not have the intention to do so. He silently waited for the formalities to be completed and for the special car to Baizao to arrive. He seemed extremely quiet.

"Your Excellency, from the looks of you... is Qi Yuan going to Bai Zao?"

Wei Yanwu asked doubtfully, vaguely feeling that the appearance of the general should be related to the deafening thunder in the early morning.

The thunder represented the Grand Tutor, and now there was also a dazed and dispirited Grand Commandant. In just one night, Longmen welcomed two of the Three Dukes of Dayan.

It's really lively.

After thinking it over, Wei Yanwu couldn't think of any other person who could attract this group of old men, except Qi Yuan who disappeared during the holiday.

General...Wei Yanwu politely kept his distance from him and did not communicate at all.

Because both sides.

Unexpectedly, the Grand Commandant walked right up to him and started, "Duke Wei, you and the Grand Tutor have worked well together. You must be very proud of raising such a son, right?"

"...?"

Wei Yanwu thought about it and realized that it was indeed Xiao Chen who did the reception.

He nodded politely, supporting himself on the table with both hands: "It's not bad. After all, I taught you step by step. It's very good to be able to teach you like this."

"really."

The general suddenly realized.

He already had a guess in his mind, and no matter what Wei Yanwu said, it would become evidence of this guess, and had little to do with what Wei Yanwu originally said.

Wei Yanwu was leaning on the table, looking relaxed and comfortable.

He was afraid of the tutor, but it was just a psychological trauma caused by the education he received from his teacher when he was a child.

San Gong, he is actually not afraid at all.

Even after sending the general to the carriage, Wei Yanwu was still wondering what had happened to Qi Yuan in the capital. As for his safety, he didn't care at all. He had the old man, the Grand Tutor, to take care of him. The old man was still strong and could protect Qi Yuan from the wind and rain.

But this general...

Watching the carriage go away quickly, Wei Yanwu began to worry in his heart. It seemed that he didn't have many years left to live, and he didn't know who would be the next Grand Marshal.

"Forget it, it doesn't matter."

Wei Yanwu shook his head, turned and left.

-------------------------------------

The words are divided into two parts.

Qi Yuan had already read the "Drinking Game". When he looked up, he saw the old face of the master. He closed the book excitedly without saying a word: "I did nothing during the time you were away."

"?"

The wrinkles on the Master's face suddenly deepened, and he asked in confusion, "I was only away for less than ten hours, right?"

Ten hours, twenty hours, that is, from early morning to noon, what can Qi Yuan do in such a short time? ——The Grand Tutor thought doubtfully, but didn't care much at the same time, until Lin Qingyan, whom he respected, ran in with great interest.

"Report, we haven't found any clues about the Flower Thief."

"Uh... ah?"

"Master Taifu."

From being enthusiastic to suddenly being well-behaved, all one had to do was to see an old face with a frown on its face. Lin Qingyan lowered his head, trying his best to reduce his presence, and the atmosphere on the scene became extremely awkward for a moment.

"What flower-killing thief?" the Grand Tutor asked in confusion.

Lin Qingyan explained all the reasons obediently, very obediently. The tutor nodded in understanding and his eyes fell heavily on Qi Yuan.

"Don't look for people like this anymore. They are just literati and poets who make far-fetched claims."

The Grand Tutor defined the matter seriously and placed his hand on Qi Yuan's shoulder: "Come on, follow me to court."

"what?"

Lin Qingyan looked at the old tutor with great confusion.

Going to court in the middle of the day?

437: Qi Yuan's Experiences in the Royal Family (Part 3)

Attending court usually means that all civil and military officials gather outside the palace at six in the morning, and then slowly move forward with the large army like cattle and horses being released from the stall, standing at attention for four or five hours, which is a test of both physical and mental strength.

Attending court at noon? Your Majesty has already gone to eat.

However, the Grand Tutor obviously had special skills in attending court, and his tone was unquestionable, and Qi Yuan would not tolerate any refusal.

Lin Qingyan is not a fool. After staring at Qi Yuan for a while, she gradually understood everything.

The reason why the Grand Tutor acted this way must be because His Majesty had personally informed him. The Grand Tutor disappeared before because he had gone to settle a matter. After the matter was resolved, he hurried to ask for orders from His Majesty.

As for why I brought Qi Yuan with me...

Is it anything suspicious that the Grand Tutor brought his successor to meet His Majesty to try to win his heart?

Lin Qingyan had no doubts.

She quickly stepped aside to make way for the old man and the young.

"hurry up."

Although the Grand Tutor put his hand on Qi Yuan's shoulder, he did not play the trick of suddenly disappearing with him. Instead, he urged him out loud, which was obviously much gentler than his previous control over Lao Deng.

"Lead the way! I was just kidding. In my heart, I respect you very much, Master Taifu."

Qi Yuan felt a numbing pain in his shoulder, which instantly spread to half of his body. He quickly changed his words and emphasized it again and again, and the numb feeling instantly disappeared.

"Hey, follow me."

The tutor shook his head helplessly and walked away without looking back. Qi Yuan immediately followed him closely, not daring to joke anymore.

"These two have such a good relationship..."

Lin Qingyan stood where he was and said with great emotion.

How many years does it take to develop such a relationship of both teacher and friend?

-------------------------------------

"So how did Lao Deng deal with it in the end?"

Following closely, his vision was completely filled with the tall, straight, old figure, and Qi Yuan asked curiously.

"I punished you slightly, and your sword strike has taken effect. The specific measures will depend on your majesty's decision... But the Grand Marshal should have a clearer understanding of his own position."

"That's daring."

"Speak seriously later, and remember to make sure nothing is leaked..."

The Grand Tutor explained seriously, then a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he said to himself: "Why am I telling you this? Forget it, Qi Yuan, just do it yourself."

Although he had never enjoyed Qi Yuan's ability to please others, he had heard a little about it.

Just let him play freely.

The Grand Tutor led Qi Yuan in silence, walking through many twists and turns along the way.

The scene that Qi Yuan had imagined did not appear, that is, as he walked, the surrounding high-rise buildings gradually decreased and turned into a majestic but low-rise old-style hall.

The tall buildings in front of him did not decrease,

Qi Yuan had lived in a 32-story building since he was a child. He read books and photos of ancient buildings every day. They were extremely majestic and majestic. But when he went to see them in person...

It can only be said that it has great cultural value.

"When you go to court, do you also take the elevator and report on your work in an office on a high floor?" he asked subconsciously.

The tutor shook his head and did not answer.

He stood in front of a tall building and pointed calmly to the sky. Qi Yuan looked up in confusion and found a huge shadow on the top of the building.

It was a complete complex.

With countless high-rise buildings as stepping stones, a pavilion stands alone in the sky. It spans the tops of countless high-rise buildings, standing alone above the sky, demonstrating the supreme authority of the royal family.

"It was done by the civil engineer."

The Grand Master calmly explained, "They moved the entire mountain directly into the mobile city. Of course, they would not let go of the place where the Great Flame True Dragon rose up. Every brick and tile was directly moved here."

“……”Qi Yuan nodded silently.

I was shocked.

He followed the tutor into the fashionable mechanical elevator. After a long wait, when the door opened again, the scene before his eyes suddenly turned into green bricks and yellow tiles. A majestic hall towered into the clouds, and countless people in simple clothes were walking in an orderly manner.

"How does it feel?"

"It feels like I have walked into a lost history, and time feels chaotic." Qi Yuan said to himself, "Have I entered the subspace?"

"Be careful what you say."

The master reminded earnestly: "This is a description of that mysterious place by foreigners, try not to say it."

Qi Yuan nodded.

Everything here is just like it was hundreds of years ago, when the eunuchs showed Qi Yuan the highest courtesy - turning a blind eye.

Literally turning a blind eye.

Just like the effect of Qi Yuan wearing the stone man hat and walking into the crowd, Qi Yuan was completely ignored. He was taken by the Taifu into the side hall. The people he met along the way continued to sweep the floor without even raising their heads, but avoided him just right, which was very decent.

How awesome...

Qi Yuan was filled with emotion. Perhaps influenced by the atmosphere, he only thought about it in his heart. On the surface, he pursed his lips in a cold manner, just like the Taifu.

Until he smelled the scent of peppercorns.

"Ah this..."

“Historical reasons.”

The Grand Tutor explained with a straight face, "A long time ago, the trade routes of Yan State were not well developed. Spices were very scarce due to their regionality and were a symbol of nobility. The red color of the palace walls was made from ground pepper powder as paint."

"Ah?" Qi Yuan was shocked when he heard this.

Is this the pepper room?

Fortunately, the pepper room was only where the concubines lived, so they didn't have to go there. They could only smell the smell from a distance. But when Qi Yuan thought about the smell of pepper everywhere when the real dragon was recruiting soldiers at night, he was speechless.

It feels worse than the year.

As we walked, the smell of pepper gradually dissipated.

But soon, Qi Yuan's nostrils were completely filled with the smell of another kind of spice.

"Cinnamon, cassia."

The tutor anticipated Qi Yuan's question and explained with a blank expression.

"Is this called..." Qi Yuan searched through the historical knowledge in his mind and asked tentatively: "Gui Palace?"

The tutor nodded.

It seems that Qi Yuan is not completely ignorant of the history of Yan State.

This real dragon and his concubines live in the Pepper Room and Gui Palace every day, so wouldn't they be filled with the smell of spices?

What picture?

Tempting to eat hotpot every day in this year?

Qi Yuan said nothing, inhaling the faint scent of spices, and followed the tutor to the side hall. Qi Yuan looked up and saw a man who looked 60% like Wei Yanwu sitting at the table, drawing on paper with one hand.

"Ok?"

He slowly raised his head, nodded, and slowly put down the pen.

Inside the Gui Palace, a wind with the smell of spices blew.

Qi Yuan saw the words on the paper. It was an elegant and clear piece of writing, and the characters were as sharp as iron strokes and silver hooks.

Anyone who can write characters like this must have a very high level of swordsmanship.

"You came?"

He was a little nervous and confused.
