Chapter 24: The Enemy of Wisdom

Seeing Baili sitting down after winning again, with no intention of getting up again, Xiao Jingrui stood up with a solemn expression, coldly gave him a fist, and said: "Xiao Jingrui, please ask Baili Warrior for advice."

Bailiqi was challenged for the first time today, and there was a gleam in his eyes. But he looked back at the envoy from his country, and saw that he shook his head towards him. His expression immediately turned dull, and he shook his head and refused: "I'm tired."

Already."

Xiao Jingrui knew that his name could easily make people mistake him for the prince of Daliang, and he suspected that the other party refused because of this, so he quickly added: "I am the son of Xie Yu, the Marquis of Ning State, and I have come here to ask for advice. If a warrior from Baili is tired, you can take a rest.

Give me some advice after a moment."

Bai Qi looked back again, but the envoy from Beiyan still shook his head, so he said again: "There will be no fight today."

In fact, as we all know, Xiao Jingrui doesn't like fighting by nature. He always believes that no matter whether he wins or loses, there is no need to have grudges. But what Bai Qi did today was really too much. Sometimes it was clear that the opponent had already retreated, but he still had to catch up.

Being completely knocked down could not help but arouse the anger of this gentle young man. Therefore, his blood surged and he actually took the initiative to challenge. After holding back his breath,

If he wanted to be seriously injured, he had to frustrate Bailiqi's anger. Unexpectedly, he was blocked softly at the beginning. However, that person really fought several times in a row. He insisted on saying that he was "pretending".

"I'm too tired to avoid fighting" and other words, Xiao Jingrui's kind-hearted character couldn't say it out loud, so he could only be stunned for a long time, and then said: "Then please make an appointment with me, the brave warrior of Baili, and you and I will fight another day."

Bailiqi took a sip of tea, shook his head for the third time, and said coldly: "Is there any reason to fight another day? There are so many people here, if you really want to fight, just pick another one."

Seeing that he insisted on refusing, Emperor Liang couldn't help but feel moved. He glanced sideways at Meng Zhi. The commander of the imperial army immediately understood what he meant, and hurriedly leaned over and whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, please don't misunderstand. The people of Beiyan are not showing weakness, they are just

I know that Jingrui and Yujin must be of high status, and they are obviously familiar with the princess just now, so I don't want to offend the powerful people in Daliang too much. In fact, Jingrui is not Bailiqi's opponent."

Although Emperor Liang looked as usual when he heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Bai Qi was so talented today. As the monarch of Liang, of course he still hoped that one of his own countrymen could earn back some face. Unfortunately, looking at this, he might not be able to do so. In his heart

When he was depressed, he suddenly saw Mei Changsu whispering something to the princess below. Nihuang looked surprised after hearing this, and couldn't help but ask: "Nihuang, what are you and Su Qing talking about?"

Princess Nihuang hesitated for a moment, then forced a smile and said: "It's nothing..."

Emperor Liang had a hint of anger on his brows and said in a deep voice: "Don't deceive the emperor. What are you talking about?"

The princess smiled and said: "How dare Nihuang. Mr. Su just made a few comments about the battle just now, and he really didn't say anything else."

"Oh? Whatever Su Qing has to say, let's listen to it."

Princess Nihuang looked at Mei Changsu and saw that he also had a helpless expression, so she had no choice but to stand up and said: "Mr. Su said that a warrior of hundreds of miles is easy to break when he goes through hard times. He is practicing martial arts in the wrong way. If someone finds out,

If there is a flaw, a few youngsters can knock it down."

Hearing this comment, the muscles on Baili's face twitched, and he looked slightly angry. However, the envoy of Beiyan regarded these words as the Daliang people trying to regain some dignity, and said proudly: "Such words

It can be applied to anyone. If you are an expert, sir, you might as well look for his flaws and find a few childish guys to knock him down."

Mei Changsu smiled hurriedly and said: "I am lying. Don't worry, you two, it is not easy for a hundred-mile warrior to practice like this. I will not ruin anyone's future casually."

He was clearly apologizing, but his words sounded more heart-wrenching than a challenge. The implication was clearly, "Actually, I can do what I said, but I just don't want to ruin you." The envoy of Beiyan was very satisfied with his ambition.

How could it be comfortable to hear that? He immediately said: "If this gentleman has such ability, we might as well give it a try in front of His Majesty's interview. Although we warriors of a hundred miles are tired, we dare not dampen the gentleman's interest in telling lies."

"How can it be so fast?" Mei Changsu still had a gentle smile on his face, "Even if I can find a few young children immediately, I will still have to teach them for at least a few days. Okay, just call me nonsense, you two

care……"

When the envoy from Beiyan heard this, he wondered why the words sounded more and more true. He seemed to be afraid of him if he just ignored him. Bailiqi earned face with his punches and kicks. If he was beaten by someone,

After making money with words, the fourth prince was afraid that he would say that he was incompetent in the future. How could he ignore it? He sneered and said: "Sir, if you want to train someone, we will just wait. Your Majesty, please point it out."

Every day, I promise to be on call at any time.”

Mei Changsu looked a little embarrassed and murmured: "I'm not familiar with the capital, so where can I find these children..."

In fact, if he is looking for a child, as long as he says something, every big person present can help him find a large group of people immediately, but no one is sure whether he is telling the truth or just wants to piss off Bailiqi.

Dare to speak.

Seeing him like this, the envoy of Beiyan became more and more sure that he was bluffing, and immediately added fuel to the fire: "What's so difficult about this? I heard that there are many young apprentices in the martial arts hall in the capital of your country..."

"The kids in the martial arts gym are too strong. I'm afraid that the Baili Warriors will suffer a loss. Besides, it's not fair to find a few kids who have practiced martial arts to besiege them."

Seeing that this man continued to brag even to this extent, the envoy from Beiyan gritted his teeth angrily and said, "What's the problem? We have no complaints."

"No," Mei Changsu shook his head, "I want to find someone who is weaker... Are there any weaker children in this palace or in your family?"

Everyone was afraid and did not dare to answer for fear of inadvertently doing a disservice. Only Princess Jingning did not understand the situation. In addition, she had just been stimulated by the miserable situation in Ye Youting not long ago, so she immediately answered: "There are people in the palace.

Ah, there are many children in Yeyouting, they are all so skinny and pitiful."

"The sin slave of Ye Youting," Mei Changsu whispered to himself, "is more suitable than finding a child from an ordinary family, but does your majesty allow it..."

When Emperor Liang saw his eyes turning towards him, he couldn't confirm for a moment whether he wanted him to agree or not. While hesitating, Meng Zhi's voice sounded softly in his ears: "Please give me your permission, Your Majesty."

Emperor Liang's trust in the martial arts of the country's top master was unquestionable, and he immediately said: "I'm sure. Come, go to Yeyouting and pick a few children."

Mei Changsu added: "Remember, you have to be weaker."

The envoy from Beiyan was very angry at him and said viciously: "Sin slaves are human beings too. Sir, you can't bear to ask these children to die in vain."

Princess Jingning was worried when she saw the consequences of her casual reply. She quickly continued the conversation: "Yes, isn't this asking those children to die? Father, this is absolutely not allowed!"

"Princess, don't worry, I'm still somewhat confident." Mei Changsu advised, "Besides, as a sin slave, if I can serve His Majesty, I should even die. What's more, if I win, Your Majesty will receive a heavy reward."

Princess Jingning became even more angry after hearing this: "They work in the palace every day, and no matter how much money they receive, they have nowhere to spend it. Of course, life is more important!"

"That's right." Mei Changsu raised his head and thought for a while, "These little criminal slaves have no hope in their hearts. They are just afraid that they will be lazy and difficult to train. This is a wrong idea. You should not choose them..."

The envoy of Beiyan was a little surprised when he saw that they had already chosen someone. But now that he saw that Mei Changsu was showing signs of retreating, he immediately calmed down and said sarcastically: "Sir, you are really tough-talking. At this time, you still have to hold on."

, In fact, as long as we admit our mistakes, we Baili Warriors are not stingy people."

Mei Changsu looked at him intently until he saw that he was a little uncomfortable. Fang sighed and said: "Su has repeatedly asked you to go down the steps, but you just refuse to come down. Since you have to give it a try, then

I have no choice but to feel sorry for the Hundred Miles Warriors."

The envoy of Beiyan was furious and was about to fight back. The eunuch who had just been ordered to bury Youting had returned and said: "Your Majesty, I have brought five children."

"Well, call everyone up."

"yes."

Following the eunuch, five small figures huddled up to the temple, huddled up and knelt on the ground.

Prince Jing had already begun to feel confused, but now that he saw Tingsheng in the middle, he understood most of it. Seeing where the attention of the people in the palace was, he quickly found an opportunity to quietly follow the emperor who was sitting next to him.

Sister Jingning said a few words.

"Raise your head and tell me your age. Which family of criminals are they descendants of?" Emperor Liang said in a cold tone.

The five children were all frightened. Under the eunuch's low-pitched urging, each one of them responded intermittently with trembling voices. When it was Tingsheng's turn, he turned pale and whispered: "Sin slave... ten

One year old, Yuan Taihe...the grandson of the great scholar Jingkui...is being questioned for the imperial examination case..."

Mei Changsu suddenly felt sour in his heart, and hurriedly brought tea and sipped it, covering up the past. Now imagine that in those days, when they were imprisoned in Yeyouting, without any help from the outside world, King Qi's female relatives could actually work together.

, found a false identity for Tingsheng, the posthumous son who was born by chance, and protected him from being eradicated by the Crown Prince and Prince Yu. It is really worthy of people's respect and admiration for them. What is sad is that these righteous women

They suffered so much that there are few left alive now.

After the five children had finished reporting, Emperor Liang didn't take it too seriously. After humming, he said to Mei Changsu: "Can Su Qing still act like these childish children?"

"Five is too many. You can't take advantage of the Baili Warriors. Three is enough." Mei Changsu looked at them casually and pointed at the three people including Tingsheng. "I'm afraid I have to take them back to my residence to train the two."

God, can your majesty grant this permission?"

"I'm sure. If I can win in two days, I will give you a big reward."

Mei Changsu sighed: "Your Majesty is certainly very kind, but what the princess just said is right. These children are sin slaves, and there is no way to use the gold and silver."

Emperor Liang couldn't help laughing and said: "You misunderstood, I meant to reward you heavily."

"Huh?" Mei Changsu was startled, "I don't need to. They are the ones who have to contribute, why don't you give them some grace that they can tolerate?"

"Of course they also want a reward." When Emperor Liang saw that the Beiyan envoy on the side heard this, his face turned pale with anger, and he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, "If you win, I will reward... uh... reward..."

He was just thinking about what to reward, when Princess Jingning interjected: "Father, you have to offer a heavy reward before they are willing to do their best so that Mr. Su can train them. What do you mean, my daughter, for these criminal slaves?"

The greatest reward is to relieve them of their hard labor, so that they can leave Yeyouting to find a place to live on their own. Even if my father rewards them with mountains of gold and silver, it is not as good as rewarding them with this."

Emperor Liang saw that his youngest daughter was really sympathizing with these little criminal slaves today. In order to make her happy, and those children were not important, he didn't think much about it. He nodded and agreed: "Okay. I will follow you, if it is

For their meritorious service, I will grant them exemption from hard labor and be properly placed in the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

Princess Jingning was overjoyed: "Thank you, Father. My daughter will know that Father has the most holy heart and benevolence."

"You are just soft-hearted. But as a girl, it's okay to be soft-hearted." Emperor Liang gave her a loving look, and then turned to everyone, "Let's break up for today. Before the princess's literary test in two days, let's read it first

Let’s see how well Su Qing trains her and then start writing.”
