Peiman West building made a formal bow, squinting and smiling: "which yamen is Mr. Xu in?"

Xu Xinnian politely responded, "Hanlin Academy."

"The court sent one of the seven officials to receive us?"

Cold laughter came, peiman behind the West building, a temperament Yinrou, eyes vertical pupil of the young dissatisfaction.

"Who are you?" Asked Xu Xinnian.

As soon as he was about to speak, Xu Xinnian said, "Oh, forget, you are not human."

The boy was angered by his cold and sarcastic tone, and hummed: "I have the blood of ancient gods and demons. How can you be compared with other mortals?"

"Why don't you go to heaven? What are you doing here Xu said in surprise.

"You......"

the boy with vertical pupil turned red and glared at him fiercely. Some people in the North dare to talk to him like this. Now he is a delicious food.

"Xuanyin, don't be rude."

Pei man squinted at the West Building and said with a smile, "Xuanyin is the blood of the great demon zhujiu. He is used to being arrogant. Lord Xu scolds him well. He really lacks a lesson."

He was swept by Pei man's West Tower, and the boy was silent.

"Although the official position of Mr. Xu is not high, he is indeed the most noble among the nobles. The Imperial Academy is a top-notch scholar. It's not like you're an evil animal. "

Pei man West Tower offers a word of praise and says, "I'm going to Pei man West Tower."

I didn't scold him. If I want to scold him, you'll have to wait until tomorrow to go to Beijing.

Huang xian'er smiles cunningly, turns her eyes and looks at Xu Xinnian. The first word of peiman in Bai Shoubu is the same as Pei's surname in the Central Plains. Most people in the Central Plains mistakenly regard peiman as Pei's surname.

She is looking forward to seeing this young Dafeng official confuse his surname, so she is embarrassed. She takes the opportunity to show her gentle side, cooperate with charm, and stir up the young official's heart.

Xu new year nodded, "peiman Messenger, I will take you to the post station to have a rest."

Huang xian'er was disappointed. This young Dafeng official had some real talent and learning, which made her follow-up temptation unable to display.

Pei man's West Tower had never thought to let the noble of the imperial academy make a fool of himself with this kind of cleverness. He got on the horse and left the wharf with the mission team under the protection of 200 officers and soldiers of Dafeng.

Through a few streets, finally came to the main road in the city, in front of the scene, let the demon man mission people gape.

The street is too spacious to imagine. It can hold 50 cavalry flying side by side. The houses on both sides are lined up to the end of the line of sight. The memorial archways of shops are hunting in the wind.

It was the first time in their life that they saw such a colorful picture.

Huang xian'er's eyes were blurred, and she finally knew why her ancestors were so eager to go south to the Central Plains and seize the land.

But then Huang Xianer realized that something was wrong, because there were human people standing on both sides of the main road. They were carrying baskets with vegetable leaves, rotten eggs and even stones in them.

They had angry faces and hatred in their eyes.

"Kill the demon man!"

Someone roared and threw rotten eggs at the demon man mission. It was like lighting the fuse of gunpowder and frying pan in an instant.

"Kill the demon man."

"Get out of the capital."

"..."

vegetable leaves, rotten eggs, stones, rotten rice balls and so on, all of a sudden hit the demon man mission, and the dirt flew everywhere.

He can't stand provocation. He shows his teeth when he is angry.

"Lord Xu, the people of Dafeng are very enthusiastic."

Pei man West building drum air machine, the two sides hit the filth away, said smilingly.

Xu new year light way: "yes, I'm afraid you don't eat enough."

Pei man choked in the West building, but he didn't know how to respond.

It's normal for demons to plunder the border. It's just a stampede.

Huang xian'er frowned and was annoyed. Although she could use her Qi to block the filth thrown by the Terran people, this kind of treatment was enough to make the clay figurine angry.

At this time, she listened to peiman West Building and asked: "these people seem to take special care of Lord Xu?"

Huang xian'er found out that when the people around her threw vegetables, leaves and rotten eggs, she deliberately avoided the young official, but the accompanying soldiers did not receive the same treatment.

With this discovery, Huang xian'er squinted, observed for a while, and saw more details.

The common people are not only caring for him, they even pay special attention to him when they are still alive, and they are very careful to avoid him.

The people of the human race seem to love him for fear of hitting him....

Huang Xianer looks at Xu Xinnian in surprise, and is very curious about him.

It is impossible for the people of the human race to treat each other like this just because of his identity. Maybe he has another identity? And it's the identity recognized by the people of the human race..... Pei man's eyes narrowed in the West building, guessing in his heart."They don't take care of me, they take care of the signs on the horses," he said

Brand?

Huang xian'er was stunned. She and Pei man found a wooden sign on the horse's neck. They didn't notice it before.

Xu attached himself to the new year, took off the sign and showed it to them.

There are five words on the sign: brother of Xu Yinluo.

Xu Yinluo's brother?! Huang xian'er's voice was soft, just like coquetry, and she said in a sweet voice, "what's the meaning of this?"

Pei man's eyes narrowed in the West building, opened slightly, and finally realized: "no wonder, no wonder! It turns out that Mr. Xu is the younger brother of Mr. Xu Qian

Bai Shoubu has a secret room for storing secret files. Behind this secret room is Bai Shoubu's huge intelligence network. The leader of this intelligence network is peiman Xilou, who is known as a nerd by the barbarians.

He wrote the legendary silver Gong of Dafeng himself.

has risen to the end of the year of Jing Cha, and has not been a year since then. It has been leaped from Kwai Kwan to the most shining star in Changle.

His talent is terrible, but the most frightening thing is not his fighting power, but his reputation.

After the Chuzhou massacre, his reputation reached the peak, a peak that people sigh.

Pei man's evaluation of this reputation at that time was that all the millions of people in the capital loved it. Now, after witnessing the power of a wooden card, he decided to return to the barbarians and add another stroke: blessing his family.

Huang xian'er obviously thought of the legendary silver Gong and was surprised.

In our Protoss, only the leader has such prestige... Huang xian'er is more and more looking forward to this trip to the capital.

Barbarians have the blood of gods and demons, and they always call themselves Protoss.

In the welcome of the people in the capital, Xu Xinnian leads the demon man mission into the post station.

After settling in the mission, Xu Xinnian, who was sent by Emperor Jingdi of the Yuan Dynasty to do some hard work, was forced to stay at peiman West Tower. After half an hour, he left in a hurry.

He didn't report back to Yamen. He was absent from work for a long time and went home leisurely.

...

"brother is already a rare talent. I didn't expect that this younger brother has sharp teeth and sharp mouth, and good talent." After seeing off Xu new year in the West building, peiman sits in the courtyard and drinks tea.

In half an hour, each allusion he said could be picked up by the other party, talking about history and the meaning of scriptures. When he talked about the old grudges between Dafeng and the northern Protoss, he would also spit out fragrance, prick and sneer.

Huang xian'er, sitting on the stone bench, deliberately put on a provocative posture, leaving all the postmen around him in a trance. After hearing the words, she hummed: "it's just a smelly scholar who doesn't understand the customs."

She kept hinting and seducing on the way, but the smelly scholar turned a blind eye to her.

Huang xian'er ate the dried fruit and meat on the stone table and asked, "what are your plans for going to the Palace tomorrow to see the Terran emperor? If you are not sure to move back to the rescue team in a short time, please let me know as soon as possible. "

Pei man sent away the postmen in the courtyard and said with a smile, "how do you deal with it?"

Huang xian'er yawns and is lazy and charming:

"then I won't go back to the north. It's better to choose a senior official in the capital to be a concubine than to go back to the north to be punished. I'm not afraid of revenge from the clansmen, right? There's a prison in the capital overlooking, and no one of our Protoss dares to come. "

Pei man laughed and said, "if you want Dafeng to send troops to help our Protoss, it's inevitable to cede interests. The meaning of our coming here is nothing more than" bargaining ".

"If the protoss want to be equal to each other, we have to attack their spirit and pride first. They respect you for three points in order to give way at the negotiation table.

"Of course, you have to work outside the negotiation table. Among the three poisons of wine, color and wealth, color is the most important

Xuanyin, a young man with vertical pupil, finds a chance to interrupt and hums coldly: "the human race is as humble as a mole ant. In ancient times, it was the blood food of our ancestors. Even now that the age of gods and demons is over, human civilians are still food. "

He knew that the mission had come to Dafeng to ask for help, but he still looked down on the weak and weak people.

Pei man looked at him in the West building, narrowed his eyes and laughed:

"these words, in private, if you dare to open your mouth, I'll peel your skin."

Xuanyin said, "I know. I didn't say it until the courier left."

Peiman West Tower took out a small box from the tribute. He opened the box carefully and solemnly. There were books in it.

These books all have a common name: "Beizhai Dadian"

"Beizhai is my library. I was good at reading since I was a child, and I didn't want to know much about it. I could only memorize it by rote. Later, I went south with my people to plunder the people's scholars. In the first three years, I listened to them. In the third year of middle school, I discussed with them. In the next three years, the scholars who could be plundered by the northern frontier were no longer as knowledgeable as me."When I was 18 years old, I did not hesitate to dye my hair black to study in the south. At the age of 20, the idea of writing a book came to me. He studied in the Central Plains for ten years, compiled and revised what he had learned. At that time, I didn't want to name the book.

"Until I went back to the tribe, back to Beizhai library, I suddenly understood what it should be called. In the next six years, I devoted myself to the publication of Beizhai ceremony.

"This book consists of 308 volumes, covering the history of scholars, agriculture, industry and commerce, astronomy and geography. Don't Dafeng say I'm a demon with no history? Actually, there are, because they haven't seen the Beizhai ceremony yet. If the historian of Dafeng saw this book, he would be overjoyed.

"Of course, the most proud thing in my life is the book of war. I've read almost all of Dafeng's military books. The most successful military book in the world is the six books on the art of War written by Zhang Shen, a great scholar of Yunlu Academy. It's true that they pay too much attention to the role of the practitioners in the war.

"If we get rid of the ordinary soldiers, we will only ignore the importance of the ordinary soldiers in the war."

Huang xian'er was drowsy and interested in the art of war. She asked:

"ordinary people play a very small role in battle. What's wrong with paying attention to the role of practitioners?"

Pei man shook his head in the West Building:

"do you know why Wei Yuan won the battle of SHANGUAN customs? How did his generation of military God come to be famous? Only Wei Yuan can use the ordinary soldiers with the pen of ecstasy. He is the real leader. If we eliminate the practitioners and only use ordinary soldiers, we can give Wei Yuan 500000 troops, and he can sweep Kyushu.

"I have studied the war of that year, in which all sides invested more than one million troops, and the number of ordinary soldiers accumulated to a terrible level. When this power is perfectly controlled and dispatched, it will be invincible. "

It's very powerful, but I don't understand... "Huang xian'er said with a smile:" how do you say I go to seduce Wei Yuan? If we can get rid of him, we'll be successful this time. "

"You don't want to live?" Pei man asked.

Huang xian'er giggled and flattered.

Of course, she just casually said that if she could be elected as one of the leaders of the mission, she was a very intelligent Banshee.

The next day, the demon man mission entered the palace to face the emperor, crossed the Meridian Gate and Jinshui bridge, and met the emperor in the Jinluan palace.

Along the way, Huang xian'er didn't have the consciousness to meet the king of a country. She fawned on the guards, ministers and all the men on the way.

Into the Jinluan hall, on both sides are the gongs, Yuanjing Emperor high dragon chair.

Huang xian'er just put away her flattery and paid a visit to the emperor.

After that, the demons and the barbarians paid tribute to Emperor Jing of the Yuan Dynasty. In addition to the tribute, there were three charming fox women, the top grade Ding stove.

It is normal that there are beauties in the tribute when foreign people pay tribute.

When the eunuch finished his recitation, Emperor Jing of Yuan Dynasty said with satisfaction:

"hearing that the war in the north is in full swing, I am also very worried. However, the autumn harvest is approaching, and the people are busy with it, so they can't send troops to the north. I am writing a Book of war in the Imperial Academy. I hope it can help you resist foreign enemies. "

Let's first express the difficulties of the imperial court. The autumn harvest is coming to an end, so it's not suitable to start the war lightly. Send the book of war again to show that Dafeng is powerful.

"Thank you, your majesty! I hope Dafeng and our Protoss will make the same agreement forever, and our friendship will last forever. " Pei man knelt on the ground in the West building, respectfully.

At the end of the court meeting, Pei man left the West building without mentioning anything about asking for help.

I'm calm!

The court officials were surprised, sneered and joked.

In their opinion, demon man is more vulgar than Wufu. It's the right way to ask the imperial court to send troops for assistance in the court.

I didn't expect that the peiman West building was a calm one, but even so, he still wanted to open his mouth. It didn't make much sense to show the city government in the court hall.

After leaving the palace, Xuanyin, a young man with vertical pupil, could not hold back any longer and asked in a hurry:

"brother peiman, didn't you say that Dafeng's art of war was poor, that he wanted to defeat them in their proudest field and win respect? Why didn't you just say that?"

Huang xian'er chuckled:

"what's the point of showing off to those people is that they will turn a blind eye when they show off to the sky. How to eat you, or how to eat you. "

She turned to look at peiman West Building and said, "who are you going to do the operation with first?"

Pei man said faintly: "Guozijian!"

...

just after the afternoon, a message came out from the Imperial College. Pei man, the leader of the barbarian mission, visited the Imperial College and competed with the grand sacrifice wine in learning.

This man is erudite and proficient. I'm not as good as that. This is the evaluation of dajijiu.

He did not leave. He gave lectures in Guozijian, and left his book Beizhai Dadian in Guozijian.

How could a mere barbarian still write a book?At first, the students of Guozijian were angry, but with the popularity of Beizhai Dadian, the abuse gradually subsided, which was more shocked and a barbarian's knowledge.

Beizhai Dadian is an amazing book, which can't be compiled overnight.

Books of this scale are usually compiled only by the imperial court. It's unimaginable that it was written by a young barbarian.

With this book alone, peiman Xilou can be ranked among the great Confucians of the time.

The most shocking thing is that several volumes of Beizhai Dadian record in detail the history, origin and evolution of the two tribes, especially the 800 year history of modern times, which is not inferior to the historical books compiled by Dafeng.

He gave a loud slap to Guozijian and Dafeng scholars.

Peiman West building was famous for a while.

"It's hard to believe that a vulgar barbarian has such a seed for reading?"

"The peiman West building is the first one of Bai Shou. Bai Shou is famous for his intelligence, but there are few like him."

"If I can write this book, it will go down in history. The barbarian is so powerful. "

"I'm ashamed. I was still studying when I was his age. But this year, things are high, and I have no energy to write books any more. "

"This man is hateful. First, he competed with the great sacrifice wine, and then he left the" Beizhai grand ceremony "pretending to be generous. This is to beat the face of our great sacrifice scholars."

It is because of the barbarian status of the other party and his knowledge that the "incompetence" of Dafeng scholars is highlighted, because most of them are unable to make such a feat.

"It's only princess Huaiqing who can compare the knowledge of the younger generation with this person."

"Princess Huaiqing studied in Guozijian and Yunlu academy one after another, but this man was from a barbarian family and had no teacher. It was clear at a glance which was higher or lower."

It is not only the officialdom and scholars, but also the civilians in the capital.

Their topic was originally whether the imperial court should send troops to help the demon barbarians. Slowly, the news that the northern barbarians asked by the University spread through restaurants, brothels and other places.

"Nonsense, how can a rude barbarian learn to let the Imperial Academy sacrifice wine? Which fool made up the rumor. "

For such a rumor, no one who hears it believes it and scoffs at it.

In the eyes of the common people, Guozijian is an official school and a place rich in Wenqu stars.

The status of scholars is very high.

But just because of this, after the news was confirmed, there was a lot of anger and abuse in the market. After dinner, the people in the capital no longer discussed whether to send troops, but jointly attacked the Imperial Academy, and called them insulting the state and Dafeng.

The corpse is a vegetarian meal.

"Xu Yinluo, a Wufu, can be a great poet. It can be seen how bad the scholars in Guozijian are. They are a group of drunkards."

"You sound like you are disdaining Xu Yinluo."

"I don't mean that. I can't be angry with the waste of the Imperial College."

"It's a great shame to lose to a barbarian in learning. It's a great shame. I have no one to serve you?"

...

post station.

Xuanyin returns from the outside, carrying a small box of books on his shoulder. He deliberately puts them down to make a noise and laughs at peiman West Building and Huang xian'er in the yard:

"Guozijian is a group of useless scholars. I only say that they dare not stop me borrowing books for brother peiman. Even though the elder brother was scolded fiercely, it just showed that they were afraid. I'm afraid of your knowledge. "

Although he thinks that reading is useless, he is too proud to kill a killer in the field of reading.

"It's just changing books, it's just changing books..."

Pei manxilou was a treasure, picking the books in the box.

"That big sacrifice wine is the most learned person. Even he is not as good as elder brother you. It seems that the Terran scholars are just like that." Xuanyin laughed.

Be proud!

"The great sacrifice wine has profound knowledge, but the culture of the human race is prosperous. He can't represent the whole human race. There's a strange woman in the palace, and learning is great. "

Pei manxilou picked up a four book annotation and read it with relish.

Three days have passed since Guozijian's "Discussion on Tao", which makes the demons in the regiment both surprised and surprised to find that their leader peiman Xilou has become a popular figure.

Become the center of the topic, bring a huge shock to the Terran.

Huang xian'er stirred up the rouge he bought in the shop and asked casually, "now you have enough reputation. What's next is negotiation?"

These days, she is not idle, to a lot of Dafeng officials stuffed with beautiful fox woman.

"Not enough."

Pei man didn't lift his head in the West building. He read a book and said:

"I heard that the imperial city will hold a cultural conference the day after tomorrow, which is just related to the war in the north. Wen Hui is good. Wen Hui is famous. Xian'er, if you spread the word, you will say that I am going to ask Zhang Shen, the great Confucian of Yunlu academy, for advice on the art of war at the cultural meeting. I hope he can attend the cultural meeting. ""The great Confucians of Yunlu academy may not take care of you." Huang xian'er's tone is lazy.

"In the middle of the war, if you don't come, you'll give me a cheap price. Isn't it better?" Pei man said with a smile. He immediately thought of something and said:

"by the way, we can't go up Qingyun Mountain. If we go there, we will be suppressed. I went to find Xu Xinnian. He is a student of Yunlu Academy. "

"Good!"

Vertical pupil young excited up, he can feel, peiman big brother in the eyes of these people, become "strong".

Brother peiman's plan is going on smoothly.

......

one wave has not been leveled, and another wave has arisen. The scholars are still studying and copying Beizhai Dadian, immersed in the vastness of this great work. Leng Bu Ding is shocked by peiman Xilou's feat of asking the great Confucian Zhang Shen for advice on the art of war.

What does this barbarian mean?

After hitting the face of the Imperial College, do you want to hit the face of Yunlu academy?

At this moment, people in Guozijian are both angry and looking forward to peiman's practice.

Yunlu academy is not easy to provoke.

The barbarian didn't know the superiority of heaven and earth. He asked Zhang Shen, the great scholar of Yunlu academy, for advice on the art of war and asked for trouble.

They only hope that the great Confucians of Yunlu academy will put down their arrogance for a while. If they ignore the barbarian and refuse to "ask for advice", they will become the stepping stone of the barbarian's fame.

Imperial study, small court meeting.

Yuan Jingdi sat behind the big case and swept all the ministers below with a cold face.

"What do you think of recent events?"

He certainly refers to a series of high-profile practices of Pei man's West Tower, such as making Guozijian by learning, selling "Beizhai Dadian" to become a famous scholar, and seeking advice from Zhang Shen, a great Confucian, at the cultural conference.

"This person intends to make a name in the capital, but he just wants to build up a reputation so as to increase the bargaining chips for the negotiation."

"Well, do you think that the court will give way? Delusion. "

"Even if he really wins Zhang Shen, we will not give up half a point."

Emperor Yuanjing frowned. The more they said that, the more they were afraid of Pei man in the West Tower and regarded him as a great man and a great Confucian.

Once the mentality goes wrong, it changes. When negotiating, it will be affected.

If you negotiate with an unknown boy instead of a famous scholar, can you have the same mentality?

Wang Shoufu came out and said in a deep voice, "if you want to curb his momentum, you'd better defeat his momentum and destroy the momentum he created."

Emperor Jing of the Yuan Dynasty snorted coldly: "now we have to look forward to Zhang Shen."

Wei Yuan shakes his head and laughs.

The house of Huaiqing.

Wearing a simple palace skirt, Huaiqing is reading a volume of Beizhai ceremony borrowed by Guozijian.

Xu Qi'an and Lin'an sat at the same table, one frowning tightly, the other frowning lightly.

Mounting while Huaiqing didn't pay attention, he peeled a grape and put it in Xu Qi'an's mouth. The latter spat out seeds and asked, "is this broken book so divine?"

Huaiqing nodded his head slightly, and said, "if peiman was born in Dafeng, he would be a famous Confucianist and remain famous in history."

Xu Qi'an took a deep breath: "this person can make" Beizhai ceremony ", presumably the art of war is also very mellow. Dare to challenge Zhang Shen, it shows that he has considerable confidence. Zhang Shen's six books on the art of war are widely spread. Pei man knows Zhang Shen in the West Tower, but the latter doesn't know him. "

To be fair, he didn't want to see the barbarians gain. It was imperative for him to send troops, but he couldn't be so cheap.

In the past two decades, demons have frequently plundered the border, burned and killed the commandments, and even ate people. When he was in Chuzhou, Xu Qi'an saw the refugees with his own eyes. He was homeless and lived in the open.

I've also seen that the poor people have a hard life because of the continuous wars.

Taking Dafeng as an example, Chuzhou is one of the most impoverished states. It's all thanks to the barbarians.

Huaiqing sipped her pink lips, with a rare dignified tone:

"Mr. Zhang, who had been on the battlefield in his early years, resigned because of his bad official career. He has a lot of opinions on the art of war, but that was decades ago after all. In the past few decades, he has lived in seclusion in the Academy. I'm afraid he has already lost his military career. "

Xu Qi'an's heart sank.

In fact, the only art of war he knew in his last life was Sun Tzu's. He not only knew it, but also recited it.

Of course, Xu Qi'an himself will not recite this kind of thing, which belongs to the extracurricular author explained by the teacher.

After all these years, I have long forgotten about 7788.

Thanks to the alchemy, Yuanshen changed and became detached from mortals. He was able to recall the content of Sun Tzu's art of war.

Moreover, Kyushu has extraordinary power. In his view, the art of war in the world tends to be open and close, and the force is reckless. For example, in the battlefield, the four grade masters can lie on horsemen composed of ordinary soldiers.

There's no need to be too tactical.

Sun Tzu's art of war, born in the mortal world, is inclined to "micro operation" and pays more attention to details."The day after tomorrow, you will join me." Huaiqing said.

"If Zhang Shen attends, Erlang will certainly attend. I can't change my face to look like him." Xu Qian frowned.

"Then I'll be someone else and be my bodyguard." Huaiqing has a lively mind and gives suggestions.

"Good."
