At this moment, a scholar recognized Bai Feng and hurriedly greeted him.
The scholar at the side knocked the scholar's head with his fan.
"Are you stupid? Mr. Bai is the military advisor. How can Mr. Bai not be here when the Merit Seeking Order is such a big event? "
The scholar who was beaten shrunk his head and said,
"That's right, that's right. I was rude."
The other scholar hurriedly cupped his hands and said to Bai Feng,
"Mr. Bai, I've heard a lot about you. Not long ago, Mr. Bai, dressed in a scholar's robe, fought two generals, Guan and Zhang."
"He suppressed hundreds of thousands of Xiliang Army soldiers and removed Xu Chang's name alone. Poor children like us really yearn for him!"
Bai Feng smiled slightly and did not respond.
But the people around them heard it clearly.
"Mr. Bai is here? He's a role model for poor children like us! "
"Look, isn't that the Prime Minister's beloved daughter, Miss Cao Jie beside him? Why are the two of them here? "
"Don't you know? Mr. Bai has made a lot of contributions and the Prime Minister likes him. Maybe they got married and betrothed Miss Cao Jie to Mr. Bai! "
"Shh! Don't talk nonsense. If you get caught, you'll lose your head! "
"…"
Bai Feng's face was full of black lines.
What the hell was this? The absurdity of the rumors was beyond his imagination.
What did they mean by him being together with Cao Jie? It meant that Cao Jie was betrothed to him.
Look at his age …
That's not right. He was still in his twenties and was at most five or six years older than Cao Jie.
Cao Jie's face turned red and she looked at Bai Feng eagerly.
It was the first time that Bai Feng felt embarrassed. Diao Chan could not help but laugh.
"Oh, Mr. Bai, are you shy?"
Bai Feng was too lazy to argue with Diao Chan. He was about to walk further inside when he was stopped by a sharp voice.
"Oh, I was wondering who it was. Isn't this the famous Mr. Bai?"
Bai Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at the person who stopped him.
Although this person looked unfamiliar, Bai Feng still had some impression of him.
This person was none other than Ding Yi, who was by Cao Zhi's side!
Ding Yi and Yang Xiu were both Cao Zhi's confidants. Earlier, when Boss Cao gave him the position of Military Advisor, Ding Yi appeared and said a few words.
Therefore, Bai Feng still had some impression of him.
"Lord Ding?"
Bai Feng looked at Ding Yi coldly.
Then, two people walked out from behind Ding Yi. They were Cao Zhi and Yang Xiu!
Yang Xiu looked at Bai Feng with some hostility, but he did not say anything.
Cao Zhi waved his hand.
"Mr. Ding, don't be rude to Military Counselor."
"Yes, young master."
Ding Yi narrowed his eyes and looked at Bai Feng. Then, he followed Cao Zhi to the seat of honor.
"Even Young Master Cao Zhi is here? It seems that this Sage Seeking Meeting is really grand. "
Diao Chan muttered.
Cao Jie curled his lips and said,
"What's there to be proud of? Third Brother only knows how to drink. After drinking, he will moan. Jie 'er hates Third Brother the most."
"He's not as good as Second Brother. Look at how proud Second Brother was when he was defending the city."
Hearing this, Bai Feng could not help but sigh in his heart.
If you knew that Second Brother would go to you and your husband and force you to hand over the imperial jade seal, you wouldn't think so.
However, Bai Feng could not say this.
At this moment, Bai Feng did not care about the hostility that Ding Yi and Yang Xiu showed towards him.
These two were just rotten fish and shrimps. Even if he stretched out his neck for them to chop, would they still have the guts to do so?
At this moment, Bai Feng was more concerned about another table.
The people at this table were Sima Yi, Sima Zhao, and Sima Shi.
Bai Feng had no choice but to pay attention to Sima Yi.
He was the person who ended the Wei Dynasty and laid the foundation for the Jin Nation.
He was able to endure for many years, outlast Zhuge Liang, and even steal the empire that Cao Cao had built for his entire life.
This person was definitely not someone that rotten fish like Ding Yi could compare to.
Bai Feng also noticed that when he met Cao Zhi just now, Sima Yi looked at him.
'He's paying attention to me too?'
Bai Feng narrowed his eyes.
At this moment, the guard in charge of the recruitment walked over and bowed to Bai Feng with cupped fists.
"Military Advisor, Miss, your seat has been arranged for you. Please take a seat."
After saying that, the guard brought the few of them to the centermost position to watch the entire Sage Recruitment Meet.
Yang Xiu slowly walked onto the stage and smiled slightly.
"Everyone with aspirations from all over the world, I, Yang Xiu, will be the host of this meeting today. Who would like to go first?"
"I'll go first!"
"I'll go first!"
"I've been waiting here for several hours. What are you fighting for?!"
Seeing the chaos below the stage, Yang Xiu suddenly narrowed his eyes and murmured in a low voice,
"As expected of the children of humble families. They have no manners at all. Don't they know etiquette?"
Although Yang Xiu's voice was not loud, everyone heard it clearly. The noise below the stage abruptly stopped.
After a while, a person wearing a green scholar's robe walked onto the stage.
…
The convention began like a raging fire, but no one was selected.
Bai Feng also touched his chin and looked at the stage indifferently.
Yang Xiu seemed to be deliberately targeting the students of humble families. He always asked tricky questions to make them look bad.
However, Bai Feng understood.
Yang Xiu was also a famous official and was extremely smart. He himself died because of his cleverness.
How could Yang Xiu not know the purpose of Boss Cao's holding this meeting?
That was why Yang Xiu targeted the students of humble families.
He wanted to tell these ambitious students of humble families that it was impossible to replace famous officials.
"What a joke. Did you write this kind of speech?"
At this moment, Yang Xiu grabbed a shabbily dressed child who looked less than ten years old and shouted in a low voice, "You must have copied this.
"You must have plagiarized this. If you confess, I'll be lenient on account that you're a child. Otherwise …"
Yang Xiu coldly snorted and said coldly,
"You can't escape death for deceiving the Prime Minister!"
"Nonsense! This was clearly written by me. How could it be plagiarism? "
The child was not to be outdone and shouted at Yang Xiu.
Yang Xiu did not expect this lowly commoner to dare refute him. He immediately raised his hand and was about to hit him.
Suddenly, a large hand grabbed Yang Xiu's arm.
Yang Xiu immediately felt a sharp pain in his wrist and hurriedly took a few steps back.
The person who made the move was none other than Bai Feng!
Bai Feng coldly looked at Yang Xiu and said in a low voice,
"May I ask Official Yang, are you recruiting talents for the Prime Minister, or are you deliberately suppressing the humble families?
"You even want to attack a child less than ten years old. Is this what you famous officials do?
"What a joke! Everyone in the world is ashamed! "
This Yang Xiu was definitely doing this on purpose!
Thinking of why Boss Cao gave him the position of Military Advisor, Bai Feng did not hesitate to attack.
This Yang Xiu was simply too arrogant.
