"Uncle Chang Shi, my cousin has never 'standed to watch' about big things."
Hearing this sentence, even Chang Yanbai was slightly stunned, raised his head to look at me, and then smiled and said, "I have never doubted this."
“…”
"But, I cannot ignore the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
I understand what he means. Now we are all taking care of "big things". Maybe no one will think about the safety of a person, but I am not like this. The safety of the prince is equally important to me. How could the foundation of the country be a trivial matter?
I said, "I understand what Shi Bo means. I have been to Xishan Academy for several days, but I haven't been able to meet the prince yet."
As the saying goes, Bai's gray eyebrows frowned slightly.
I hurriedly said, "But please don't worry, the students in Xishan Academy are not bandits. They may not agree with the court, but they will not do anything bad to the prince."
Chang Yanbai glanced at me: "But, after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince entered Xishan Academy, he could not come out again. Could it be that they detained it?"
“…”
I was also asked, hesitated for a moment, and said, "But I believe there is a reason for this."
"But Miss Yan has not been able to find out the reason these days, right?"
"I originally wanted to see Nan Zhenyi first as soon as I arrived at Xishan Academy and ask about this matter clearly, but he refused to see me."
"I heard that Xishan Academy has a lot of help from Yan's family, especially Lingtang's funding back then. Can they not even listen to your words?"
“For academies, funding is one thing, and obedience is another.”
Chang Yanbai raised his eyebrows slightly.
Perhaps for these officials in the court, eating the king's fortune and bearing the king's worries is their most recognized standard of conduct. Just as the people say that taking money and eliminating disasters, Xishan Academy's attitude of not doing things without doing anything is obviously a bit surprised him. However, it is precisely because Xishan Academy has always had this attitude that the students here can always maintain their free thoughts and casual academic style.
After a while of silence, Chang Yanbai smiled: "This academy is interesting."
I said again: "But Nan Zhenyi has agreed. After the last discussion of Xishan Academy is over, he will meet me. At that time, I will definitely let him make an explanation about the prince."
"After the discussion is over?"
As soon as he heard these, Chang Yanbai's eyebrows frowned again.
"I don't know when this discussion will take to end. If it cannot be finished for a few months or half a year, would His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have to stay in Xishan Academy?"
“…”
I looked at him a little surprised - he heard about the sayings of Yan Bai, and he was completely familiar with this argument, as if he was very clear about it.
However, I have never seen him appear in the academy.
At this moment, footsteps came from outside. A middle-aged man who looked like an official family walked to the door and bowed his hands respectfully, "Master, Mr. Qi is back."
Chang Yanbai nodded and said, "Yes", and then he saw several figures walking in from outside.
Wei Yang immediately sighed softly. When I looked up, I saw the old man who appeared in the library every day and often made amazing words, tremblingly, and walked in with a few people, bowed to Chang Yanbai. Chang Yanbai also stood up and said, "Thank you for your hard work today. I have guests here, so you can go and rest first. Come and help Mr. Qi down."
The old man seemed to be talking to him, but when he saw us, he bowed his hand and turned around and left.
Wei Yang and I looked at each other and immediately understood.
It turned out that the old man was sent by Bai.
Although he seemed to be a rich man who retired and retired, how could such a person, once ranked first among the Three Dukes, really express his love for the mountains and rivers? Since he was staring at Xishan Academy, such an important argument would certainly not ignore it. He asked that "Mr. Qi" to participate in the argument. I believe that the old man's words should have been explained by him - no wonder Qinghan would say that according to the views put forward by the old man, at least a meat eater, as the saying goes, people like Bai can make those arguments - and in this way, even if the direction of the argument cannot be completely manipulated, at least it will have a huge impact on the entire argument.
And that's exactly what it is.
In addition, he had always wanted to find out the situation of the prince. The old man went to Xishan Academy to help him explore some of the things inside the academy.
It's just a killing of two birds with one stone.
I sighed softly: "No wonder that old man's words hit the nail on the head. It turns out that he is a man of the uncle."
As the saying goes, Bo does not deny it.
I said, "Since this is the case, Shibo should understand better that the students of Xishan Academy are different from other people. They do not blindly hate the court. They have independent views on some of the measures taken by the court."
Chang Yanbai glanced at me and said, "This is indeed a bit beyond my expectations."
"That--"
"But, what exactly does this argument need to end? Miss Yan, can you guarantee it?"
I thought about it and said, "Qinghan told me that the end of the discussion will be in these two days."
When he heard Qinghan's name, Chang Yanbai's eyes also became slightly cold.
At this moment, the housekeeper returned and walked back to the door. Chang Yanbai looked up at him and said, "What's wrong?"
The housekeeper said, "Mr. Qi said that he wanted to tell the master something and let the villain pass it over."
Chang Yanbai frowned slightly, but nodded. The butler nodded to Wei Yang and I, and immediately walked over to his ear and said a few words softly.
When Chang Yanbai listened, there was not much expression on his face. When the butler finished speaking, he pondered for a moment, then waved his hand: "You go back."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! "Yes."
When the housekeeper also stepped down, Wei Yang and I looked at each other, and didn't know what he had just heard, but Chang Yanbai had already raised his head to look at me, his eyes slightly exuding some solemnity. He suddenly said, "I want not only the end, but also a result. If the result of this discussion is not what we want to see, Miss Yan must also be very clear about the development of the situation."
I nodded.
"Do you have the confidence to win?"
"Qinghan said that it is easy to win, but what we want is not the victory of discussing the Tao, but the true way through discussing the Tao, let those who originally stood opposite us also change to our position. This is the final victory."
“…”
As the saying goes, Bai said without comment, "That Nan Zhenyi, he really won't hurt the prince?"
I thought about it and said, "I can still guarantee this."
“…”
"He is the chief of Xishan Academy. He represents Xishan Academy. This place is something I have watched since I was a child and it is also the place where my mother has devoted her efforts-" Speaking of this, I couldn't help but pause slightly, because I thought of the library and the secret room that might exist. My determination to Nan Zhenyi and Xishan Academy actually comes more from my confidence in her. Before, that confidence was indeed shaken, and I didn't even guarantee that such confidence could last until the end, but I still believe Qinghan's words. Before everything was proven, my mother, she was the familiar and open-minded look I continued, so I continued: "The prince, I will definitely not have any accidents in Xishan Academy!"
Hearing me say this, Chang Yanbai breathed a long sigh.
He was silent for a while, and then said, "Just just now, the butler said, Mr. Qi asked him to tell me that the last argument of Xishan Academy, the conclusion of the separation and union will only be tomorrow."
“…!”
My heart beats a little, and Wei Yang next to me is slightly shocked: "Really?"
As the saying goes, "Mr. Qi has always been my think tank. Although his reputation is not as good as your teacher, he also has real talents and knowledge."
I hurriedly said, "This is natural. Therefore, Mr. Qi also asserted that the discussion will end within tomorrow."
“…”
"Well, isn't that great?"
Chang Yanbai glanced at me: "But, I don't know which side loses or which side wins, ends."
I thought about it and said, "It's up to people. If Shiwang is worried, why not go together?"
His eyebrows moved slightly: "What did you say? I will also participate in that discussion?"
I immediately laughed and said, "It is indeed a self-destruction for Shibo to discuss the students. However, young people always have their own ideas. Listening to what they say is not a good thing."
“…”
"Besides, isn't Shiwang also concerned about the winning or losing of this argument, and is he more concerned about His Royal Highness?"
“…”
After hearing my words, Chang Yanbai did not respond immediately, but was silent all the time. I looked up at the sky outside. When I saw Mr. Qi coming back, it proved that the academy's argument had ended. It was getting late now. Twilight gradually came and it was soon dark.
I knew that it would take some time for the Chang Yanbai to think about it, so I stood up and said, "It's getting late. We have bothered Mr. Shi for half a day, so it's time to go back."
Chang Yanbai also stood up and said, "Since that's the case, I'm not leaving you alone."
I said, "I'll think twice about what I said just now."
“…”
"The winners and losses of this discussion are closer, and it is related to whether His Majesty the Emperor can have a smooth peace talk with Xichuan; if he goes far, it is the topic of this discussion. Is the world apart or aligned? The world has a strategy of understanding the past and the present, and the talent of the world. If such a big event is not involved in the participation of the uncle, I am afraid that many people will really get lost."
“…”
