Feng Ren and Dou Xi chatted happily as if they were old friends. The more Feng Ren knew about Dou Xi, the more satisfied he was. However, he was not in a hurry to reveal the purpose of the expedition. Instead, he secretly sounded Dou Xi out and wanted to know what Dou Xi thought of the Duke of Lanting.
No matter how great Jiang Pengji was, there were still many conservative people who did not buy into her. Dou Xi did not look like a pedantic person, but it was hard to guarantee that he would not be conflicted because of Jiang Pengji's gender. There were precedents of people refusing to conquer because of their gender.
"I didn't expect Yang Mountain to be such a paradise." Feng Ren smiled as he took off his bamboo hat and put it in front of his chest. With one hand behind his back, he stood beside the field and looked into the distance. He said, "Lanting Duke plans to build a branch here so that the children can stay away from the mortal world and focus on their studies."
Dou Xi smiled and said, "It's a blessing for the people of Yang Mountain that the Duke of Lanting has taken pity on Yang Mountain."
Even though Dou Xi had lived in Yang Mountain for a long time and rarely went out, he had heard of the famous Golden Scale Academy.
If the branch could be located in Yang Mountain, it would undoubtedly bring a large number of people to Yang Mountain, and the increase in population would naturally boost the local economy.
Feng Ren said, "Oh? Zong Guang has seen through everything. "
There would always be people who liked to argue. Many mediocre people felt that the establishment of a branch academy was a bad thing. They felt that it was a huge construction project that wasted manpower and money.
Dou Xi was a commoner, but he could see through everything so clearly, which made Feng Ren like him even more.
"I'm just trying to show off in front of an expert." Dou Xi said humbly, "I don't deserve such praise."
Dou Xi was a wealthy landowner in Yang Shan, and he was also the son of a farmer. Naturally, his eyes were closer to the common people. Of course, he knew how good it was for Yang Shan to build a branch. Even a pig could take off standing on a wind gap, not to mention a hurricane in the Golden Scale Institution!
"Humility is a virtue, but you can't undervalue yourself." Feng Ren said with a smile, "When the matter of the school division was first announced, many people were not optimistic about it, and some even slandered it. There were many famous people among them. Thinking about it, it makes me laugh … "
These words were indirectly praising Dou Xi for being as knowledgeable as those famous scholars.
Dou Xi didn't know whether to agree or not, so he could only change the topic.
"Lord Lanting has the ability to rule the heavens and the earth. It's not easy for ordinary people to see through his thoughts."
It wasn't that Dou Xi was talented, nor was it that the famous scholars who had misjudged him were useless. It was clear that the person in question was too scheming and too capable.
The smile on Feng Ren's lips grew wider. Logically speaking, he, who was born in the Confucian School, was unlikely to like Dou Xi, who was born in the Peasant School. After all, the knowledge and political ideas of the two families were in conflict. However, this did not prevent Feng Ren from appreciating Dou Xi. There weren't many interesting young people like him anymore.
"From what you've said, Zong Guang seems to hold the Duke of Lanting in high regard." Feng Ren asked with a smile, "What do you think of her?"
Dou Xi shook his head and said, "A dignified marquis and a wise ruler. How can a commoner judge him?"
In a few words, Feng Ren had already gotten what he wanted from Dou Xi.
Dou Xi held Jiang Pengji in high esteem. If she wanted to subdue him, he would most likely not refuse.
With this understanding, Feng Ren felt that he had completed most of his task. His mood was also cleared up.
"Madame Dou", who was following behind them, looked at Dou Xi's back and secretly gave him two thumbs up.
This young man has a bright future!
Xiao Mu Ji: "To show his loyalty in front of five million salted fish, this Dou Xi has a bright future!"
Wen Miao Cang Shi: "Isn't the point of showing his loyalty to the streamer without knowing it?
For Dou Xi, no matter how many salted fish there were, they couldn't compare to the streamer alone.
After all, Jiang Pengji was Dou Xi's future superior.
The three of them left Dou Xi's experimental field and saw a group of servants from rich families waiting at the foot of the mountain.
Dou Xi saw the emblem of the Feng family on the carriage and said sensibly, "Sir, you're busy. I won't bother you anymore."
Feng Ren smiled and nodded. They agreed to meet next time.
"Madame Dou" watched Feng Ren get into the carriage and put down the curtain. She was stunned for a long time …
Wait!!!
Big Boss Feng Ren, have you forgotten something?
Where's the document that the streamer wrote to Dou Xi?
Although she didn't scream, her emotions were still revealed. Dou Xi saw all the changes in her expression.
"Madame, what's wrong?"
It was hot outside. Dou Xi held an umbrella for her.
The woman came back to her senses and said embarrassedly, "I'm a little reluctant. It's rare to meet a famous scholar."
Since Feng Ren was the idol that this body worshipped, it shouldn't be a problem to answer like this, right?
"Maybe there'll be a chance in the future." Dou Xi smiled and said, "Madame caught a cold and was very sick. You almost scared me. Now that you've recovered, I should prepare something to go to Qingxue Temple to fulfill my vow. Why don't you go back and rest first? Don't tire yourself out. "
"Qingxue Temple? Since it's to fulfill my vow, I should be there too. Only then will I show my sincerity. "
The time-traveling experience only lasted for 12 hours. She wanted to see more of the real ancient times. Why would she want to waste time in the mansion?
Dou Xi said, "That's good too."
Seeing the interaction between the two, many salted fish were relieved.
The Lucky Emperor had some tricks up his sleeves. Dou Xi didn't expose him.
But …
Was that the truth?
Jiang Pengji rested her chin on her hand and looked at the screen. Her eyes were deep. At that moment, her private message beeped.
You Abba: "Don't worry."
Jiang Pengji said, "What should I worry about?"
You Abba: "Aren't you worried that the so-called" Dream of a Thousand Years "will harm the people in the streaming room?"
Jiang Pengji didn't even bother to lift her eyelids. She said, "Old Chief, aren't you worried? The so-called system is the culprit who turned the federation upside down and caused the 2,000 years of war. I naturally have a reason to worry that this thing will cause trouble again … "
You Abba: "Although that person gave you the God Slaying Saber with the intention of using you to solve the defected Heavenly Brain, it was ultimately to clean up the problems left behind by history. The other party's standpoint is the same as yours. Naturally, he won't be a burden to you. "
In other words, what Jiang Pengji was worried about would not happen.
Jiang Pengji glanced at him. "Old Chief, you really know a lot of insider information."
After a while, the system notification popped up.
Your good friend, your abba, has gone offline. "
Jiang Pengji snorted and muttered, "Coward!"
When she returned to the federation one day, she would capture all the insiders and interrogate them.
When she turned her gaze back to the streaming room's screen, she realized that Dou Xi and his wife had already arrived at Qingxue Temple.
Qingxue Temple was a Taoist temple. Although it was an ancient building with a long history, it didn't have a lot of followers.
It wasn't until a few years ago that a Zhenren came to Qingxue Temple to practice on his own that the Taoist temple began to flourish.
