When An Xinhui saw this, she immediately reminded him.
"This is Li Xiu!"
Sun Mo instantly understood. After all, a name was sufficient to represent everything.
Li Xiu, the Eldest Princess of Great Tang, was the most trusted sister of His Majesty. There were rumors that said that His Majesty did not have much talent or strategy. The reason why he was able to win the fight for the throne and ascend to the throne was all because of this sister's strategies.
Regardless of the actual situation, the relationship between the two of them was extremely good. Therefore, it could be said that Li Xiu was truly second only to one person and above tens of thousands.
Even when the Emperor was uncertain about something, he would ask her for advice.
There were also people who once said that it was a pity that Li Xiu was a woman. Otherwise, if she were to sit on the throne, she would definitely be a great ruler of a generation. She would be able to make the Great Tang Empire rise and compete with the Great Zhou Dynasty that had Shengjing.
However, these people who tried to dissuade Li Xiu were all hanged by her.
In short, I, Li Xiu, am loyal to the Great Tang and His Majesty.
If it had been the people of the past, they would have knelt down and kowtowed three times in front of the powerful Princess Royal Highness.
However, Sun Mo didn't do so. He nodded as a form of greeting and casually sat down.
I won't spoil you.
Fang Lun was startled. After that, he shook his head. (Young people are full of vigor. If you were a 6-star great teacher, this attitude is fine. But you are just a 2-star great teacher.)
That was a little too arrogant.
Qi Mu`en was also astonished. Sun Mo's bones were tougher than he had expected.
Zheng Qingfang was the most familiar with Sun Mo and was already used to it. Just when he wanted to explain to prevent Li Xiu from hating him, Li Xiu raised her hand, indicating for him to keep quiet.
"Elder Zheng, there's no need to say anything. If he didn't have this attitude, I would have underestimated him."
Li Xiu basically didn't care that Sun Mo would hear this.
The dissatisfaction in her eyes was because she felt that Sun Mo had no respect for the royal clan and was too careless with regards to Li Ziqi's future.
One must know that when you accepted Ziqi as your personal disciple, you couldn't even be an intern teacher anymore. Accepting her is more like a political investment, making use of her.
"Your highness, there's no need for me to say anything more about Teacher Sun's talent. Being the champion of the great teacher examinations twice is already sufficient to prove it."
Zheng Qingfang was still worried.
"Of course. If it weren't for these results, I would have sunk him into the Qinhuai River and fed him to the fishes."
Li Xiu's voice was full of energy and extremely domineering.
Even those who were used to it would still feel uneasy. It felt like every word she said was like a knife scraping their skin.
It was very uncomfortable!
An Xinhui glanced at Sun Mo. She wanted to help but didn't know what to say. However, wasn't the change in her childhood sweetheart a little too great?
He was actually so calm when facing Li Xiu?
What have you experienced in Songyang Academy these past few years?
"Sun Mo, a 2-star great teacher title isn't enough. Even if you get 3 stars in a year and become a three-time champion, it's still a little humiliating to my Ziqi."
Li Xiu scolded, "Do you know? When I went out this time around, I've already looked for Secondary Saint Zhou, and he has also agreed to accept Ziqi as his personal student. "
Hiss!
Hearing these words, Fang Lun couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. The influence of the Great Tang was indeed very strong.
After that, he felt pity for Li Ziqi.
Although Sun Mo was overflowing with talent and had some small achievements, he was far inferior when compared to a secondary saint. After all, Sun Mo might die prematurely. As for a secondary saint, it had already been proven that they were just a step away from standing at the peak of the saint realm.
An Xinhui had a worried look on her face. The attraction of a secondary saint was even stronger than a peak-grade cultivation art to students.
One must know that if one became a disciple of a secondary saint, not only would they receive meticulous guidance, but it also meant that they would have a vast network of connections.
Every disciple of a secondary saint could be confirmed to be a genius, and these geniuses were from the same sect. These complicated relationships were too beneficial to one's development.
"Is that so?"
Sun Mo shrugged. "That's too much of a pity. Secondary Saint Zhou has lost a genius disciple who's destined to be renowned throughout the Nine Provinces!"
Li Xiu frowned and berated, "Do you think I'll be happy just by praising Ziqi?"
"Ziqi doesn't need people to praise her!"
Sun Mo retorted, "Do you think I'm fawning on you? You're thinking too much! "
"Sun Mo!"
An Xinhui tugged at Sun Mo's sleeves.
"Sun Mo, just say a few words less!"
Zheng Qingfang was also trying to persuade Sun Mo. There were no benefits to offending a person like Li Xiu.
"Sun Mo, our royal clan also wants face. I hope you'll remember this kindness!"
Li Xiu's tone sounded like she was giving charity.
In truth, she could totally make a move and let Sun Mo 'die'. This way, Li Ziqi wouldn't have the vile reputation of betraying her sect and joining another great teacher.
"Hehe!"
Sun Mo wasn't angry.
Why?
It was because he knew that his bit of reputation and achievements were really nothing much in the eyes of true major characters.
It was like a man who relied on his own talent to earn 10 million. In the eyes of many people, he was already a successful person who could write inspirational books. But in the eyes of these two Boss Ma's, what did you count for?!
They were people who could sit down and chat cheerfully with world giants like Bill Gates and Soros. You, a multi-millionaire, couldn't even be considered a single hair from nine oxen.
To Li Xiu, the great teachers she usually came into contact with were 5-star great teachers at the very least. Thinking of this, what did Sun Mo count for?
When you weren't in that position, you wouldn't have the qualifications to talk to them.
Moreover, when Sun Mo was a teacher in No. 2 High School, he had seen parents whom he hated more than Li Xiu.
Li Xiu no longer spoke. Hence, the atmosphere in the study became a little stifling.
An Xinhui reckoned that there was a high possibility that Li Xiu was waiting for Sun Mo to take the initiative to suggest to dissolve the teacher-student relationship with Li Ziqi.
"Let's talk about proper matters!"
Sun Mo urged.
Li Xiu's lips twitched. "It's not good for young people to be too arrogant."
"Sorry, I've been arrogant until now, but no one has appeared who can punish me."
Sun Mo was unhappy. (Who do you think you are? You keep grumbling and want to lecture me?
If it wasn't for the fact that you are Li Ziqi's aunt, I would have started cursing you.)
Li Xiu's expression changed and she clapped her hands.
Bang!
Cracks immediately appeared on the study table.
This Eldest Princess was also an expert.
Qi Mu`en didn't care about this matter. Although Fang Lun was a governor, he had no way to interfere in such a family matter. He also didn't have the qualifications to do so.
Just when Zheng Qingfang wanted to speak, a surprised cry rang out.
"Aunt!"
Li Ziqi pushed open the door and dashed in. "Aunt, when did you come back? I missed you so much. I'll cook lotus seed porridge for you to drink tonight! "
The little sunny egg hugged Li Xiu's hand and smiled very sweetly.
"If you missed me, you wouldn't have stayed in school and not come back."
Li Xiu grumbled, but there was a doting smile on her face. She couldn't help but pat Li Ziqi's head.
"It's not as comfortable as Teacher's touch!"
Li Ziqi mumbled in her heart and sneaked a glance at Sun Mo.
In the Prince Consort's Mansion, she had gathered a few confidants who would inform her of the situation.
As she had always been worried that her aunt would find trouble with Sun Mo, she had been paying attention to Li Xiu's movements. After knowing that Li Xiu was going to meet Sun Mo in the Zheng Manor, she immediately ran over.
"Ziqi, Secondary Saint Zhou has decided to accept you as his personal student."
Li Xiu smiled.
"That fool didn't accept you because his judgment was too bad. You don't have to feel inferior. You are the princess of our Great Tang, you are the most outstanding one."
Fang Lun sweated profusely when he heard this. Only Li Xiu would have the guts to publicly say that a secondary saint was a fool.
When Li Ziqi heard this, she directly knelt down.
"Aunt, I've already acknowledged Teacher Sun as my master. Moreover, I'm very happy now."
Li Xiu's countenance gradually sank. She looked at Sun Mo with a scrutinizing gaze and a hint of puzzlement.
(What charm do you have exactly?)
(To be able to make my niece stand on your side without any hesitation?)
Being able to become the personal student of a secondary saint could be said to be the dream of any student.
Back then, when Li Ziqi knew that she was going to acknowledge Secondary Saint Sun as her master, she was so agitated that she didn't sleep well for half a month. After that, because she was rejected, she was in low spirits for a very long time. The reason why she came to Jinling to relax was also because of this matter.
In truth, the impact Li Ziqi received was relatively great. She had even jumped into the lake to commit suicide. If it wasn't for Sun Mo, the little sunny egg would have been fed to the fishes.
Sun Mo was very moved. He felt that his efforts had been repaid.
Other than Zheng Qingfang and An Xinhui, they also assessed Sun Mo with astonished gazes. Between a secondary saint and a 2-star great teacher, Li Ziqi actually chose Sun Mo?
"It's true that Ziqi has become a lot more lively during this period of time."
Qi Mu`en said a word of fairness.
"What's the use of being lively?"
From this sentence, one could tell that Li Xiu was a utilitarian. "Strength is the foundation for a person to settle down."
"Aunt, I've already..."
Li Ziqi grew anxious. She had wanted to say that she had already comprehended three great teacher halos and had the qualifications to participate in the 1-star great teacher examination. This was all taught by Teacher Sun, but she was interrupted by Sun Mo.
"Your highness, happiness is the most important thing in life."
When Sun Mo said this, he had a myriad of thoughts on his mind and his emotions were very complicated.
Just look at the modern world. Whose child didn't attend a few supplementary classes? Would the parents be willing? Most probably, they wouldn't be. But if you didn't go up, you would be left behind.
If you didn't endure hardship now, you would have to endure hardship in the future.
There was no place in life without competition.
It was very easy to live. You just had to have one meal to satisfy your hunger and to have a mobile phone to browse the web. You could occasionally be a little extravagant and find a hair salon at night and spend 200 yuan to eat fast food. But if you wanted to live well, you had to put in effort.
Li Xiu was also someone with a lot of experience. When she saw Sun Mo's gaze, she couldn't say anything she wanted to refute him.
It was because she knew that Sun Mo agreed with her point of view.
All of a sudden, she had a feeling as though she had found a confidant.
"What the hell?"
Li Ziqi secretly assessed Li Xiu's expression and suddenly discovered that Li Xiu wasn't speaking anymore. This was very surprising. One must know that when her aunt was angry, she would even dare to scold her father.
"Teacher Sun, if you are thinking for Ziqi's sake, you should give her the best opportunity."
Li Xiu softened her tone and persuaded earnestly.
"Teacher is the best teacher!"
Li Ziqi interjected.
Li Xiu immediately glared over, causing Li Ziqi to be like a little quail. She shrank her neck and lowered her head.
"I'm not the best, but I'm definitely the most diligent."
Sun Mo had this confidence.
"It's useless to be diligent. Success is the only standard to measure a person."
Li Xiu looked straight into Sun Mo's eyes. "Rising by four stars consecutively and becoming a four-time champion is unprecedented. If you can do it, you will be Ziqi's personal teacher."
