The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Chapter 194: Who Released Jiang Ziya (Part 3)

Xiao Rui came to Yuewen Academy in a low-key manner to visit Old Master Meng.

The last time I used Old Master Meng as a knife to deal with Zhao Gaogao of the Inner Court Secretary, although Old Master Meng was not angry, Xiao Rui has always felt guilty. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, Xiao Rui came to visit with some gifts, both as an apology and as a respect .

When Old Master Meng heard that Xiao Rui was begging to see him, he quickly sent someone to invite him in. Xiao Rui entered the bedroom, but when he saw that Old Master Meng was bedridden, he was startled, and hurried to the bedside, and asked, "Master, are you feeling unwell?" Is it? Have you ever consulted a doctor for diagnosis? I will go to the palace to ask the imperial physician now!"

Meng Tiannan laughed, quickly grabbed Xiao Rui, and said: "Your Highness, Your Highness, don't worry, I'm fine, but I feel cold occasionally and I'm tired, so I'm going to rest in bed. The doctor Hua in the capital has already diagnosed and treated it, nothing serious , I have already taken medicine."

"Really?" Xiao Rui confirmed.

Meng Tiannan nodded and said with a smile, "Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, you can ask other people."

The one who took care of Meng Tiannan was his little grandson, who was in his twenties, and said respectfully: "Your Highness, grandfather did catch a cold occasionally, and he will recover after a few days of rest."

Only then did Xiao Rui feel relieved.

Meng Tiannan was very relieved, and looked at Xiao Rui with more kind eyes: "Why did His Highness come to my place today?"

Xiao Rui said apologetically: "The New Year is coming soon, come to pay New Year's greetings to Master. The student is ashamed, it should have come earlier."

"You are the prince of Daxia, and now you are on duty at the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The tasks are cumbersome. Just send someone to talk about it. Why go there yourself." Go back, I don't need it at my age."

Xiao Rui asked Li Yuanfang to put the gift away, and said with a smile: "Be kind, if the master refuses, the student will have no face to go out to meet people. Moreover, the gift from the student is not expensive, not to mention that the student, as the prince of Daxia, should thank the master for helping him." The nurturing feeling of teaching and educating people in the Great Xia Kingdom."

"You are eloquent, well, I will accept the gift." Meng Tiannan laughed, and then coughed twice.

Xiao Rui said quickly: "Master, rest well, and I will take my leave."

Meng Tiannan said: "No, it's just a dry cough. You have to leave right after you arrive. Others will say that this old man doesn't treat guests well. Zaikun, go prepare some refreshments."

"Yes, grandfather." Meng Zaikun replied, and hurried down to prepare.

Xiao Rui glanced at Meng Zaikun and said, "Master, is this your grandson? Sure enough, he is a talented person, and he will be a pillar of the court in the future."

"No, no! Although you are a few years older than you, in terms of knowledge and personality, you are still far behind. After the New Year's Examination, I will be satisfied if I can be on the list. But, this little guy has a temper like mine. Unlike his father and uncle, who are utilitarian and harsh, when I die in the future, the Yuewen Academy will not be considered buried if I hand it over to him." Meng Tiannan sighed.

Xiao Rui comforted him: "As long as we uphold the spirit of Yuewen Academy, the Academy will not be buried, Master should also relax, Meng Zaikun inherits your mantle, you will not lose face. Although the students did not worship under the Master's sect, but I have always admired Master for his character and knowledge, and if Master can rest assured, if there is anything to happen to Yuewen Academy in the future, I will definitely not refuse."

"Hey..." Meng Tiannan sighed, "This is what I feel sorry for. It's a pity that you can't accept such an excellent student as my disciple!"

Xiao Rui didn't expect Meng Tiannan to have such high recognition for him, so he quickly got up and bowed deeply to show his respect.

Because he was Xia Huang's first teacher, he couldn't accept Xiao Rui as his disciple, otherwise it would be a mess. He couldn't let Xiao Rui say to Xia Huang: Father, let's talk about each other. Your father.

Meng Tiannan waved his hand and said with a smile: "You, don't be so big, I'm telling the truth, I didn't mean to praise you, why are you thanking me. You're leaving the capital after the Chinese New Year, but plan your itinerary, how long will you be out for? "

"Father ordered me to go out after the imperial examination. The time is tentatively set for one year. I haven't decided where to go yet. Anyway, I am patrolling the state capital and walking as much as possible." Xiao Rui said.

Meng Tiannan said: "Your Majesty is in good health, and the position of Crown Prince cannot be chosen every six months or a year. I appreciate your decision very much. Going out for a walk is to broaden your horizons and do some practical things for the people. Local officials are corrupt and pervert the law." A few, relying on being far away from the capital and the emperor, flaunt their might. Even in the face of the supervisory censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, they rely on ignoring someone and being arrogant. But you are different, you are a prince, and you don’t have to worry about them at all The people behind you should do your best to plead for the people. This old man feels that although His Majesty named you Xianwang, the more important meaning is that he wants you to become a virtuous king."

Xiao Rui cupped his hands and said, "Students are taught and will remember it in their hearts."

"Also, do you know other meanings of the word Xian?" Meng Tiannan asked suddenly.

Xiao Rui pondered for a while, and said: "Kill!"

"That's right!" Meng Tiannan said with a smile: "Your Majesty's good intentions, you must bear in mind, and go to the border gates if you have the opportunity. You live in the capital, far away from the frontier fortresses. You are fascinated by the peace and prosperity of the capital. The cruelty of the war. Great Xia and Dayan Kingdom formed an ally, and the south was stable, but what about the north and the west? Why did the champion marquis stay in the north all the year round? How many armies were stationed in the military town in the west, and there were still constant battles? When His Majesty was not enthroned When Emperor Xiaowen was in power, the cavalry of Da Zhao and Da Qi rushed into the territory of Great Xia, almost occupying half of the country, if it weren't for His Majesty's hard work, personally leading the troops to guard the country, how could we be where we are today?"

"Under the protection of His Majesty, the Great Xia Kingdom is at ease, but if the later emperors do not have this ability, they will still lose power and humiliate the country, or even perish. Your Highness, do you know? Five hundred years ago, when the Great Xia Kingdom was not established, The land under our feet belongs to the Jiang country. At that time, the Jiang country was the most powerful of all countries, but within fifty years, it was defeated by a fatuous emperor. People are different, and it is the turn of Great Xia to rise. For thousands of years, this continent has never been unified, but countless countries have risen, prospered, withered, and collapsed."

"Work hard to make yourself strong, and let your strength become a sharp weapon for killing. No one in this world can resist your sharpness."

Every word in Meng Tiannan's old voice was like a hammer hammering into his heart.

Xiao Rui nodded seriously. At this moment, the goal he had set was ignited in his heart, from a flame to a raging flame.

"Others don't have the ability to rule the world, and neither do I, but I have a system!"

Although the system is sometimes messed up, it has endowed him with means against the sky after all. He is only eighteen years old, and he has the time and experience to come to a stronger reliance.

He seems to have seen countless capable ministers, Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia, Feng Chu, Liu Bowen, Wei Zheng, Zhang Liang, Fan Li, Jiang Ziya...

There are countless fierce generals, Lu Bu, Dian Wei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Xue Rengui, Guo Ziyi, Huo Qubing, Bai Qi...

In this world, how can you stand in my way?

Wait, who called Jiang Ziya out!

Suddenly, Xiao Rui's ambition was thwarted by a question.

System, system, you won't even be able to come out of the gourd baby, dammit, I'm still working hard!

Huo baby, come, set a fire, and burn down Daqi.

Shuiwa, come, spit, and flood the country of Zhao.

Second baby clairvoyance, let's see what that little girl Yan Linglong is doing, Liu baby, lend me your invisibility technique, I'm going to the women's bathhouse, I heard there is a big white rabbit there.

Just when Xiao Rui began to doubt the world he lived in, the system couldn't take it anymore.

System: "The host, please don't daydream. What you fantasize about is completely impossible, absolutely impossible. Do things honestly, and behave well."

"Okay!" Xiao Rui stopped thinking about it, thinking that he, a hero, was useless.

But Meng Tiannan became suspicious. He saw Xiao Rui's face changing, as if he was going through some deep struggle. Could it be that his words hit him?

It shouldn't be, the little guy in front of him is very strong, it is impossible to be frightened by a few words!

Xiao Rui came back to his senses, noticed Meng Tiannan's doubts, and quickly explained: "Master, I'm sorry, I was distracted just now and thought of something else."

Meng Tiannan nodded and said, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, you are still young and in the process of growing up."

"Students understand." Xiao Rui said again.

While talking, Meng Zaikun came with refreshments, Meng Tiannan, like all elders in the world, insisted on letting Xiao Rui eat, but Xiao Rui didn't dare to refuse, and after staying for more than an hour, he was so full.

In the end, seeing that Meng Tiannan was really exhausted, Xiao Rui left.

Meng Zaikun personally sent him away from the academy, walked through a bamboo grove in the academy, and saw a group of academy youths sitting on the ground in the bamboo grove, talking enthusiastically.

This group of young people are in their teens and twenties, and they are in their youth. At this time, their faces are red because of a policy argument, and the atmosphere of study is very strong.

As a private school, Yuewen Academy can compete with official schools like Guozijian. Many high-ranking officials come to Yuewen Academy instead of going to Guozijian, because they value the atmosphere here. This is also the result of old master Meng Tiannan's years of management.

Xiao Rui stopped, accompanied by Meng Zaikun, and said with a smile: "These are all officials who will take part in the examination next year. The academy is already on vacation, but most of them are far away from home, so they will not go back. They will wait until the New Year's Eve Participate in the examinations."

Xiao Rui nodded and said sincerely: "I hope you can all be named on the gold list."

"Thank you for your kind words, Your Highness." Meng Zaikun cupped his hands and said.

Xiao Rui hesitated for a moment, then asked: "This time the chief examiner of the imperial examination is Mr. Zhou, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites. You are the grandson of Master Meng. Don't you want to visit Mr. Zhou?"

"Falling in the ranking shows that I have little talent and learning, and I have never thought of other methods, and I feel that opportunism and injustice are despicable behaviors." Meng Zaikun said proudly.

Xiao Rui nodded, this son really has the temper of Master Meng, but this time the imperial examination will definitely not be peaceful, I hope that what I do will not hurt these lovely scholars, and they will not encounter Tang Bohu's situation.

"Let's go!"

Xiao Rui turned and left, the plan in his heart would not be given up.
