A quarter of an hour later, Wei Changtian and Gui Pei'an walked out of the quiet room.
As if it were child's play, the deal involving one hundred thousand soldiers and six states was finalized. The process was so easy that one had to wonder whether both parties would really fulfill their promises.
But everything seems to be so simple.
Today, Gui Pei'an will send a message back to Dali and immediately mobilize 100,000 "green forest heroes" to support Yuanzhou. He himself will return to Kuixing Academy in a few days and select a number of academy disciples to help Shu "sort out government affairs."
.
Wei Changtian, on the other hand, will withdraw all the guards at the border after the reinforcements from Dali arrive, expressing his sincerity in fulfilling his promise in the form of "my door is always open."
Strictly speaking, if this transaction is successful, it will indeed be a win-win situation.
Da Li can "turn over" and completely get rid of its status as a vassal state of Daning, and can even expand the territory of the six states in one fell swoop.
Wei Changtian was able to defeat the 300,000 counter-rebellion army as he wished, and even continued to counterattack the capital, driving Ning Yongnian off the throne.
Although we still don’t know how things will develop in the future, at least the prospects are bright.
However, Wei Changtian and Gui Peian must have their own thoughts and calculations.
As for what they are planning, it is still unknown at the moment.
The situation where you can only say "you're good and I'm good" will most likely not happen.
Because cooperation between people may achieve "mutual benefit and win-win", but once it rises to the national level...
Winner takes all is the norm.
Shu, Dali, Daning.
Of these three, only one is destined to have the last laugh.
...
...
Front hall.
Just when Wei Changtian, who had just "purchased" 100,000 reinforcements, was walking over happily, Shen Ran was in a very complicated mood.
He looked at the proud Xu Suisui across from him and felt like he was numb.
"Xu, Miss Xu, you..."
"Huh? What's wrong with me?"
Xu Suisui shook his head and said: "Master Shen, don't be surprised yet, I still have..."
"No need!"
Shen Ran wailed and waved her hands hastily: "Miss Xu, you have already composed twenty or thirty poems!"
"Stop it, really don't do it!"
"Uh...okay."
Pouting his lips, Xu Suisui shook his head regretfully: "Then we'll come here today."
"call......"
Taking a long breath, Shen Ran leaned back on the chair with relief after hearing this.
In less than half an hour, there were nearly thirty poems that could be read for centuries.
If Wei Changtian's nine consecutive poems at the Chunlong Poetry Society can be said to be "possessed by the Immortal of Poetry", then Xu Suisui basically belongs to the category of "The Wenqu Star descends to earth".
At first, Shen Ran was surprised by Xu Suisui's poetic talent.
But as the latter memorized more and more songs one after another, Shen Ran only wondered if she had not woken up, and in the end she developed a strong inferiority complex.
I have been studying the books of saints and sages since I was a child, and now I am surrounded by scholars and scholars.
Shen Ran originally thought that if the world's talents could be divided into ten buckets, he would have to occupy one or two buckets. At most, he would be slightly worse than Gui Pei'an and Wei Changtian.
As a result, a more "violent" Xu Suisui has emerged now.
Could it be that this girl Xu also has some luck from heaven?!
Seeing the flying beams of the main hall, Shen Ran was speechless for a long time and felt a little doubtful about life.
Xu Suisui, who was sitting opposite him, finally realized that he seemed to have gone too far.
"Um...Mr. Shen, are you okay?"
"ah?"
Shen Ran came back to his senses, smiled bitterly and sat up straight: "It's okay."
"Miss Xu...I wonder who you studied under?"
"Master?"
Xu Suisui replied with a guilty conscience: "I have never been a disciple."
Shen Ran's eyes widened instantly: "Then, that poem is from you..."
"Well, I figured it out myself."
Xu Suisui followed the sentence, but maybe it felt too unreasonable, so he added in a low voice:
"Oh, my brother occasionally explains the secrets to me."
"But Mr. Wei?"
"Well, this is the only brother I have."
"I see."
"..."
Xu Suisui threw half of the blame to Wei Changtian without hesitation, and Shen Ran felt a little better at this time.
It turns out that Xu Suisui was taught by Wei Changtian, so no wonder he wrote poems so well.
From this point of view, Mr. Wei should be the undisputed leader of poetry in the world.
Um?
If this is the case, then maybe I can become Master Wei as my teacher...
The disciples of Kuixing Academy all firmly believe that "among three people, there must be one teacher", so most of them don't have just one teacher.
After all, literature and art involves small branches such as articles, poetry, governance, etc. Everyone must have their own areas in which they are better at it.
Maybe I am not as good as you in this aspect, but I am better than you in another aspect. Therefore, it is very common in Kuixing Academy to learn from each other.
For example, Shen Ran, apart from Gui Pei'an, actually had several teachers.
But now, he has already considered studying poetry under Wei Changtian.
She just did what she said. Shen Ran was very enthusiastic about "learning". After making up his mind, he immediately raised his head and asked Xu Suisui:
"Miss Xu, I intend to take your brother as my disciple. Do you think Mr. Wei will agree?"
"ha?"
Xu Suisui was stunned: "You want to take my brother as your teacher?"
"yes."
Shen Ran's expression was firm: "It's just that I don't know if Mr. Wei is willing to accept me as his disciple, so I would like to ask the girl for some advice."
"this......"
Xu Suisui hesitated for a long time, and then answered carefully: "My brother is usually very busy, and now he has to fight again, so he doesn't have much time to spare."
"And he already had a young apprentice, and I see that he is not very willing to spend time teaching the latter..."
"So if you want to learn poetry from him... I'm afraid you won't learn anything."
From Xu Suisui's perspective, she certainly knew that Wei Changtian definitely didn't have any real talent or knowledge, let alone the ability to teach Shen Ran to write poetry.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Therefore, she was very "considerate" and wanted to politely reject this apprentice for Wei Changtian.
However, Shen Ran is not someone who is willing to give up easily.
Although he understood what Xu Suisui meant, he also knew that there was a high probability that Wei Changtian would not agree to him...
But with such a good learning opportunity in front of you, you have to give it a try.
or......
"Miss Xu!"
Suddenly, Shen Ran's eyes lit up and he thought of a "second best" solution.
"I wonder if you would like to accept me as your disciple?"
"......ah??"
Xu Suisui was dumbfounded and opened his mouth wide.
Himself? Take a disciple?
She subconsciously wanted to refuse, but just before she said the words, she suddenly changed her mind.
"Master Shen, are you sincere?"
"Naturally and sincerely!"
When Shen Ran heard that something was going on, he immediately stood up and answered very seriously:
"Miss Xu, I don't mean to be a joke at all!"
"Is it......"
Xu Suisui pondered for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "Okay! Then I'll accept you!"
"Thank you, teacher!"
"Boom!"
Shen Ran was also decisive enough. After hearing Xu Suisui's promise, he immediately fluttered his sleeves and knelt down, and gave Xu Suisui a serious apprenticeship ceremony, as if he was afraid that the latter would regret it.
The holy son of Kuixing Academy actually worshiped a woman as his teacher.
This may sound incredible at first, but to Shen Ran, who is "thirsty for knowledge", it is nothing.
In his view, being able to learn something is the most important thing.
Even sometimes, the more teachers you have, the more others will look at you more highly.
"I have three thousand disciples in my lifetime, and I will eventually become the teacher of ten thousand people."
This is a saying that everyone in Kuixing Academy knows, and it refers to Gui Pei'an.
And this sentence also shows from the side that even a person like Gui Peian had many people as his disciples when he was young.
Therefore, at this moment, Shen Ran was kowtowing without any psychological burden.
However, Wei Changtian, who happened to come in from the door and saw this scene, was stunned.
what's the situation?!
Aren't these two people on a blind date? Why is Shen Ran kowtowing to Xu Suisui there?
Could it be that... it has progressed to a proposal???
