Chapter 598 Wei Changtian has a beginning and an end
At dusk, Wei Changtian and Li Yang, who "doesn't visit brothels", came out of a brothel called "Early Spring" and then left for the time being.
Li Yang also went to the bookshop to proofread tomorrow's Beijing News, while Wei Changtian went to the Xuanjing Department.
He had no other purpose in going to the Xuanjing Division. He originally just wanted to complete the "Yum Victory Pledge" he made two years ago.
After all, I had just won 90 games and then left, with ten games left to finish. It was a bit regretful after all.
The idea was good, but he far underestimated his influence.
As soon as he entered the martial arts hall, Wei Changtian was instantly surrounded by hundreds of officers from the Xuanjing Division. The scene was very much like a fan meeting of some celebrities in previous lives.
In this case, let alone fighting, whether Wei Changtian can escape smoothly is a question.
"Master Wei! It's Mr. Wei!!"
"I never thought that I would be able to see Mr. Wei in person in my lifetime! This life is worth it!!"
"Master! Tell us about Lingbo Pavilion!"
"Mr. Wei! The villain's sister is pretty and unmarried. Are you interested?!!"
"Master Wei! My eldest sister is forty this year! A man just died a few days ago. Are you interested?!"
"Are you stupid? Why would Mr. Wei be interested in your eldest sister??"
"Hey, are you sure that the young master will like this?"
"Too......"
"Young Master Wei! I don't have any women in my family, I'm the only man! You shouldn't be interested in me..."
"..."
There was an extremely excited noise, and Wei Changtian stood in the crowd, his eyes falling on the wooden sign next to the A-2 arena not far away.
This is the "scoreboard" I set up at that time, but I didn't expect it to still be there today.
Looking at the eighteen straight characters engraved after the word "win" on the wooden sign, and more traces engraved after the word "defeat", Wei Changtian smiled, then looked back, no longer thinking about the remaining ten games.
Finished things.
With his current strength, it only takes ten moves to win ten games.
And although it is impossible for these servants to beat me, if I put it forward, there will definitely be many people who are willing to help me.
However, Wei Changtian was still not prepared to fight again.
He made the Pledge of Victory at that time, and his only purpose was to motivate himself to practice hard.
Since this group of servants can no longer help him improve, the remaining ten victories are meaningless.
After struggling with the so-called "beginning and end", Wei Changtian was too lazy to do such things for outsiders to see.
Or maybe he doesn't need to prove anything to others now.
"Wang Er, let's go."
After a few perfunctory words to the crowd around him, Wei Changtian left the martial arts hall.
Although the group of officers were excited, they did not dare to be as "big or small" as the fans in the previous life, so they did not follow him, but just stood there and watched him go away.
"Why did Mr. Wei leave so soon?" Some people were a little confused.
"Hey, didn't you see that the young master was looking at the winning card just now?"
An attentive person guessed: "I guess the young master originally wanted to fulfill the oath of victory."
"Huh? Then why don't you fight again?"
A guard at Liuye Department said regretfully: "Although we can't beat the young master, if the young master opens his mouth, I will be willing to go on stage even if I can't get out of bed for three days!"
"So this is the difference between you and the young master."
The person who just spoke shook his head and said: "The previous ninety victories were all won by Young Master with one punch and one kick. Every bar after the word "win" is real."
"But with Young Master's current strength, what's the point of beating us again? It's better to keep this winning card to inspire future generations."
"hiss......"
"makes sense......"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then nodded in unison as if they suddenly understood, and looked at the wooden sign again with different eyes.
They seemed to see the embarrassed man standing on the stage again, and saw the way he refused to give up even though he had lost fifty-eight games in a row.
Suddenly, someone didn't know who sighed.
"Well, since I went to Shuzhou, I no longer come to compete. I always feel that there is something missing in the Yamen..."
"Hahaha, it must be because I am missing the fifty taels of silver that the young master gives me every time I lose a game!"
As soon as the man finished speaking, someone immediately laughed loudly, causing everyone to burst into laughter.
The laughter made the speaker blush, but he did not argue.
He lowered his head and whispered in a voice that only he could hear:
"Anyway, I feel like this capital is not as interesting as before..."
...
...
East of the city, Huaihua Lane.
Different from the lively and noisy scene in the Xuanjing Si Yamen at this time, although there were many people gathered in a large house without a plaque at the end of the alley, the atmosphere was very quiet.
"Master Li."
"Master Zhang, you came early."
"Yes, today the young master shows up for the first time. It would be better to wait earlier."
"By the way, I heard that the emperor just summoned Mr. Lu, but I don't know if he can make it in time."
"I don't know... Hahaha, Mr. Sun, have you just come from the palace?"
"Yeah, the war is coming, there are too many official matters..."
"..."
In the spacious main hall, a dozen old men, including Li Gan, were standing and chatting. From time to time, the sound of carriages would be heard outside the courtyard, and people would knock on the door and enter the house one after another.
The carriages these people were riding in were not hung with flags, making it impossible to identify the people riding on them.
In fact, even if ordinary people see these old men, they will most likely not recognize them.
Just because people can't recognize it doesn't mean that everyone can't recognize it.
At the very least, if Ning Wenjun were here, he would be able to call everyone by name.
After all, these people were standing in the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the morning.
That's right.
At this time, everyone in the house is in the same boat.
This house is a property of the Tongzhou Association, and people often come here to discuss matters privately.
But this is the first time that people have gathered together like this.
Not even the time when Ning Wenjun officially announced his "usurpation" was so unanimous...
Agarwood curls around the cranes or peacocks embroidered on official uniforms.
There were so many court officials gathered that at first glance, one might not know the scene but thought it was a court meeting.
But it was dusk now, and this was not the palace, so the person they were waiting for was definitely not Ning Wenjun.
"Master Li, did the young master tell you when he will arrive?"
An old man with white hair came close to Li Can and asked in a low voice: "It's almost dinner time now, do you want to tell me to prepare the food and wine first?"
"Young Master just said that he would go to the Xuanjing Division first, but he didn't say how long he would stay there..."
Li Can thought for a moment and then ordered to a servant: "Go and tell the people behind to start preparing the banquet."
"yes!"
The servant immediately took the order and left, and Li Jian explained to the old man:
"Master Wang, thank you for reminding me."
"If the young master comes before dinner, I'm afraid it will be too late to prepare a banquet."
"yes."
The old man nodded: "It's always better to be prepared in advance."
"Um......"
"..."
There is Li Qian, who is worshiped as the Minister of Dali Temple, and a third-rank official with peacocks embroidered on his clothes.
The two of them are obviously important ministers of the country, but now they are here discussing trivial matters such as "whether to prepare a banquet" in a very serious manner.
More importantly, even though everyone around them heard it, no one showed any disdain or disdain.
From this we can see what the status of this upcoming "young master" is.
As for where the "young master" himself is now...
"Brother Zhou Cheng! Long time no see!"
"Hahaha! Brother Wei! I thought you would be very busy today. I originally planned to visit the Wei Mansion tomorrow, but I didn't expect you to come here first!"
"Come just as you said you would. Why bring so many things with you!"
"It's not easy to come in empty-handed. Besides, I have something to ask for."
"Hmm? Brother Wei, what do you need me to do? Just say it!"
"Um...Brother Zhou, I wonder if you still remember that someone in the department made a bet two years ago on whether I would marry Wan'er..."
"Remember, remember, hard, could it be..."
"Ahem! Yes, didn't Wan'er ask you to bet twenty taels of silver? She has long wanted to get the money back, but when she thought about the long journey, she would have to spend half of the reward sent by someone.
So I never did anything.”
"And this time I'm going back to Beijing, and she's been urging me in every possible way to come and ask you for...the twenty taels of silver."
