"Greetings, Lord!"
At the peak of Snake Spirit Mountain, in the middle of the thatched hut.
A burly middle-aged man in black walked in and bowed to the iron-masked man.
Lord!
He actually called the iron-masked man Lord!
The iron-masked man's back was facing the door, but when he heard this, he quickly turned around and took two steps forward to personally help the middle-aged man up. "We're all family, General Luo, there's no need to be so courteous!"
This attitude was completely different from before. Or rather, the iron-masked man's attitude was also very different from before. It was obvious that General Luo had a very important position in the iron-masked man's heart!
"Etiquette cannot be ignored. It's one thing for Lord to think highly of me, but that doesn't stop me from respecting Lord!"
The man surnamed Luo said respectfully.
The iron-masked man said helplessly, "General Luo's stubbornness is still the same as before! Since that's the case, I won't persuade you anymore! Have a seat! "
With that, he pointed to the bench at the side.
"Thank you, Lord!"
The man surnamed Luo cupped his hands and walked to the bench, sitting upright.
After the iron-masked man sat down, the man surnamed Luo asked, "What orders does Lord have for calling me here today?"
The iron-masked man chuckled. "There are no orders, but there are some situations that I would like to understand from General Luo!"
The man surnamed Luo hurriedly cupped his hands. "Please speak, Lord!"
The iron-masked man pondered for a moment before saying, "I just received news that Li Shimin has already designated the Dragon Sect as a disobedient sect, and announced to the world through Datang Daily that the common people are prohibited from joining the Dragon Sect. As a result, the Dragon Sect can no longer expand rapidly like before! General Luo, what do you think? "
The iron-masked man was quite well-informed. Snake Spirit Mountain was more than thirty miles away from the nearest county of Weinan County. The Datang Daily had just been released today, and he already knew about it. There must be someone in the city!
Luo's face darkened and he said, "My Lord, the only evidence the imperial court has is that Du E used spells to deceive the people. Why would they suddenly go to war and label the Dragon Sect as a disobedient sect?"
The iron masked man shook his head. "This King is also puzzled about this. I thought Li Shimin would wait until he had more evidence before making a move against the Dragon Sect. I didn't expect this day to come so soon!"
The man surnamed Luo frowned at first, then smiled in relief and said, "My Lord, there's no need to worry. Even if Li Shimin takes action in advance, it won't have much impact on our great cause. On my side, everything is ready. I'm just waiting for my Lord's order, and the 20,000 troops can kill their way into Chang 'an City at any time!"
Twenty thousand soldiers!
Who would have thought that the Heavenly Dragon Sect would secretly have twenty thousand elite troops? It was no wonder that the Heavenly Dragon Sect would crazily amass wealth. After all, to raise twenty thousand troops, the consumption of food and horses was not a small sum!
"Good! I've been waiting for General Luo to say this! "
The iron masked man suddenly stood up and clapped his hands. "Since General Luo is so confident, then this King can rest assured! Once the joint in Chang 'an City is opened, we can directly drive in and attack Chang' an! But before that, this King wants to give Li Shimin a surprise, a surprise that will make him lose the hearts of the people! "
The man surnamed Luo was not interested in the 'surprise'. He cupped his hands expressionlessly and said, "The Heavenly Dragon Army awaits my Lord's orders at any time!"
The iron masked man nodded. "Actually, even if Li Shimin forbids the commoners from joining the Heavenly Dragon Sect, those who have already joined may not be willing to leave. Because those who drink the holy water of the Jade Lake can no longer leave. General Luo can integrate these people into the Heavenly Dragon Army in the next two days. When we attack the city, we can use them as the vanguard!"
Although this sentence was expected to be ordinary, behind the words, there was an endless amount of blood and evil.
Luo Xin frowned and hesitated. "My Lord, using the commoners as scapegoats, even if you win the country, I'm afraid it will affect your reputation. My Lord, please reconsider!"
"Hmph! Reputation? What bullshit reputation? History has always been written by the victors! "
Hearing this, the iron masked man suddenly became angry. He pointed at the southwest direction of Chang 'an City and roared, "Li Shimin killed his brother's father and took over his brother's wife. Now, he is praised by the commoners as the Eternal Saint. Why? Isn't it because he is the victor? After this King kills Li Shimin and ascends to the throne, the history books will be dominated by this King. Who will care if this King uses the commoners' lives to attack the city? "
The man surnamed Luo narrowed his eyes. Although he did not agree with the iron masked man's words, he did not refute.
The room was silent for a moment. The iron masked man regained his composure and said, "It's settled then! The core members of the Heavenly Dragon Sect in the other four states will be arriving in the next two days. The matter of recruiting them will be handed over to you, General Luo! This King believes in your ability, you will definitely be able to organize an army of at least fifty thousand people! "
The man surnamed Luo stood up and cupped his hands. "This General obeys!"
"Good! General Luo, please go ahead! "
The iron masked man waved his hand and said.
…
Yunshan.
The discussion of the Heavenly Dragon Sect among the people could be said to be overwhelming. However, Yanhuang College seemed to be in a different world. This was because this place was not affected by the Heavenly Dragon Sect at all. All the teaching tasks were carried out normally.
In the past few days, the students of the College were basically busy preparing for the final exam. Of course, there were a few people who did not need to prepare for the exam, such as Li Ke, Iron Egg, Cheng Chumo, and the other students who followed Li Zexuan to eliminate the locusts.
Today was Sunday in Yanhuang College, a holiday. Even so, there were still some students in the College spontaneously revising in the classroom. This was because the College would hold the final exam in a week. This was the final exam at the end of the academic year. Everyone in the College, whether it was the teachers or the students, paid great attention to it. Li Zexuan even specially sent a message to the College last night to ask Li Gang about the College's preparation for the final exam!
"Sigh! Dad is really too much. At least I helped him solve the case, didn't I? Not only did he not appreciate it, but he also sent me to the College to review my homework. Am I really my dad's son? "
In the classroom, a teenager bit the end of a pen and muttered to himself with a bitter face.
That's right, this teenager was Sun Zifan!
Speaking of which, he was quite tragic. Originally, he had solved the case of Jin Wanfu's murder with Di Zhixun and Li Tai in the Supreme Court yesterday. No matter how you looked at it, it was a great achievement. However, the key witness, Ye Hong, was killed, making the whole case back to square one. In this way, Sun Zifan's contribution was not as great as before!
In addition, on the way home, Sun Fujia accidentally heard someone say that his child was studying at Yanhuang College and did not go home on the weekend. After Sun Fujia went back, she took advantage of the dinner and suggested that Sun Zifan go back to the College a day earlier to review his homework!
This made Sun Zifan angry!
"What do you mean by biological? Zifan, what are you muttering about? "
Li Tai walked into the classroom and happened to hear Sun Zifan's muttering. He could not help but stop and ask aloud.
"Eh? Qingque, you also came to the College today! "
Looking up and seeing Li Tai, Sun Zifan was first surprised, then he replied with a bitter face, "It's my dad! Yesterday I helped him solve the case, and today he wants me to go back to the College to review my homework. I even suspect that I'm not his biological son! "
Li Tai was speechless. "What are you talking about? If Sun Shaoqing heard it, he would be furious! Besides, it was not you who solved the case in the Supreme Court yesterday. It was Zhixun, okay? "
Hearing this, Sun Zifan straightened his neck and said, "Qingque, you're wrong. It was the four of us who worked together to finally solve the case. We can't do without anyone!"
Facing this arrogant guy, Li Tai was too lazy to argue with him and went directly to his seat.
"Eh! Qingque, what do you mean by that? Am I wrong? "
Seeing that Li Tai ignored him, Sun Zifan quickly stood up and followed Li Tai to ask.
Li Tai put the book in his hand on his seat and said impatiently, "Fine, fine, fine! You're right! You better go back, don't disturb other people's revision! "
The reason why he said this was because there were a few other students in the classroom studying by themselves, such as Meng Wenhao and Wang Meng.
"Hey! That's more like it! "
Hearing this, Sun Zifan lowered his voice. Then he asked curiously, "Qingque, why did you come to the College to review your homework today? Didn't the Yamachō say that? As long as you can complete the Ace Project well, you can get an excellent grade even if you don't take the final exam! "
When Li Zexuan appointed Li Tai as the vice president of the second and third Ace Project, he conveyed to all the teachers in the College the idea of "academics first, exams second". As long as one's research results were outstanding, it was fine even if they did not take the final exam! Under Li Zexuan's insistence, the College had set off a wave of research. Many students were actively involved in the research and development of the Ace Project!
Li Tai looked at Sun Zifan and said faintly, "I don't want to just get an excellent grade. I want to be first in the College!"
"…"
Sun Zifan was silent for a moment and said, "Damn! Forget I asked! You can study by yourself! "
After that, he turned around and prepared to "roll back" to his seat. However, he was stopped by Li Tai and said, "Zifan, wait! I've missed a lot of classes in the past two months. You heard everything. Come and help me make up for it! "
Sun Zifan thought for a moment. If the "student" he taught ended up doing much better than him, then as the "master", wouldn't his face be very embarrassed?
Thinking of this, he quickly shook his head and said, "Who … who heard everything? I also skipped a lot of classes. Qingque, go find Wenhao!"
After saying that, this guy hurriedly slipped away!
Li Tai gnashed his teeth in anger, but there was nothing he could do about this guy.
…
"Looking at the time, Yamachō should be back next week, right?"
In the conference room on the first floor of Guanghua Building, Li Gang, Yan Silu, and Mo Huai, the three "giants" of the College, gathered together and seemed to be discussing something. At this moment, Li Gang sighed and said.
Yan Silu frowned and said, "Yamachō should start to return next week. However, if they want to return to Yunshan, they will probably be delayed on the road for some time. Therefore, Yamachō probably won't be able to make it in time for the College's final exam!"
Li Gang nodded and said, "Since they won't be able to make it in time, then we old guys have to arrange the final exam for Yamachō. Kong Gui, Mr. Mo, let's call Ma Zhou and the others over and recheck the final exam papers to see if there are any mistakes!"
Mo Huai nodded and said, "Yes! That's how it should be! "
After a moment of silence, Li Gang suddenly sighed and said, "Before Yamachō left, he entrusted the College to this old man. Although this old man didn't make any great contributions these days, I didn't let anything happen to the College! Seeing that Yamachō is about to return, this old man has been feeling uneasy recently. I have a feeling that something is going to happen to the College these days! Maybe it's because I'm old and have nothing to do, so I can't help but let my imagination run wild! After the students finish their final exam next week, this old man will officially retire. In the future, I will live in the Yunshan residence. If I have nothing to do, I will come to the College to see the students that this old man taught personally. Even if I die, I will have no regrets! "
The old man had taught two Crown Princes in his life, but in the end, both Crown Princes died in a coup. This broke the old man's heart, so he retired early. Li Zexuan's appearance gave him a second spring in his life. Seeing the College's children grow and become talents day by day, the old man was happy from the bottom of his heart. However, at the same time, he also wanted to protect these children. During the time that Li Zexuan was away, the old man had been worried sick for the College. The guards, logistics, and teaching of the College, no matter how big or small, he wanted to provide a stable learning environment for the students!
"Haha! Wenji, you have a good plan! This old man also dreams of living in Yunshan in the future and watching the College's children become talents day by day. This old man will have no regrets even if he dies! "
Hearing this, Yan Silu agreed.
Mo Huai was silent for a moment, then said, "The two of you are highly respected, and Yanhuang College can't do without you. However, the two of you are already old and have reached the age where you can enjoy your remaining years. This old man has no face to persuade the two of you to continue teaching in the College! I only hope that the two of you can live to a hundred years old and see the College's students benefit the people! "
Li Gang chuckled and said, "Haha! Thank you for your auspicious words. This old man also wants to see that day! "
Mo Huai nodded. After pondering for a moment, he said, "As for Mr. Wenji, if you are worried that something will happen to the College recently, I will stay in the College for the time being to prevent any accidents! Please rest assured, Mr. Wenji! "
Li Gang thought for a moment and didn't reject. He nodded and smiled. "That would be for the best!"
