The eight Confucian sects, Zhongliang, Qidiao, Zizhang, and even the Xun sect, all came to Qi Xiaoshengxian Village at this sensitive time. Only the reclusive Yan family did not show up.
Xiaoshengxianzhuang, which has always been a representative of Confucianism, is facing this crisis for the first time, with the other four factions attacking together.
On this day, Fu Nian and Yan Lu were standing at the gate of Little Saint Xian Manor, dressed neatly, and behind them were all the disciples who were full of energy and stood like pines.
A guest worthy of waiting for the entire Little Saint's Manor on such a scale must be a distinguished guest.
When people from the four Confucian schools rushed over in great enthusiasm, they saw this scene in front of them.
"Huh? With such a formation and etiquette at Xiaoshengxian Manor, who are you waiting for?" Ji Liang, a lacquered carver, saw Fu Nian from a distance. Yan Lu personally led the team and stood there, frowning and watching for a moment and said.
The people accompanying him include Chen Xiao, Zhuan Sunxun, Lu Jia, and disciples from various sects, a total of about a hundred people.
Lu Jia's slender eyes were narrowed to just a slit. He turned to look at the wide road paved with white stone bricks, and chuckled, "Those who can bear such courtesy must have a distinguished status. Ha, here it is.
He is from the State of Qi, or at least a young master from the royal family of the State of Qi."
No one here has a dead mind. After Lu Jia's reminder, he started thinking in his heart.
They came to Xiaoshengxian Manor with great power. If one move went wrong, there might be a fierce conflict. But at this time, Master Qi came to visit Xiaoshengxian Manor. How could it be such a coincidence.
Currently, the prince of Qi, Tian Sheng, is in Chu. Tian Sheng himself is from the anti-Qin faction, and it is impossible for him to have a good impression of Lu Yan.
This young master must at least have an impartial attitude towards Lu Yan before he would be willing to come to Xiaoshengxian Manor at this time. The candidate is almost locked in, the third young master Tian Zhen.
Chen Xiao approached the gate of Xiaoshengxian Manor and held out his hands to Fu Nian and Yan Lu respectively, "Mr. Fu Nian, Mr. Yan Lu, we made an appointment to discuss things about Lu Yan today. Why is it that there are other distinguished guests at Xiaoshengxian Manor today?
Coming to the door?"
The fellow lacquer carvers Ji Liang, Zhuan Sunxun and Lu Jia also saluted each other.
Fu Nian's thick black and slender eyebrows were slightly drooped. He returned the courtesy to several people and said apologetically: "Young Master Tian Zhen was visiting Songhai not long ago. Yesterday, he suddenly sent someone to send a greeting card and agreed to visit today. Young Master Tian Zhen
Condescending, Fu Nian had no choice but to tell the truth.
Unexpectedly, Master Tian Zhen was even more delighted when he heard that all his Confucian colleagues had arrived, and insisted on coming. The appointed time is coming soon, and Fu Nian dares to invite you all to welcome him together."
Yan Lu stood next to Fu Nian, half a body behind, his eyes quietly turned to the side, staring at the side of the senior brother's face, and thought to himself: So senior brother, this is how you look when you talk about excuses. Ha, I am the second one.
See you once.
After hearing Fu Nian's words, Qi Diao Ji Liang's breathing became slightly heavier, and he took a few more looks at Fu Nian, a promising leader who had been praised by his elders before: "This is to give us a show of strength."
"I see, the distinguished guest is Young Master Tian Zhen." Chen Xiao did not show any dissatisfaction and just nodded, "Mr. Fu Nian is so polite. Guests should do as they please."
Lu Jia smiled "haha" and took the words from Chen Xiao, "It is also a good thing to have Mr. Tian Zhen as a witness. Since Mr. Fu Nian invites you, I will wait with you."
Fu Nian was trained as the leader of Little Saint Xian Village very early on, and he went on many study tours and exchanges with various sects. He had met Qi Diao Ji Liang, Chen Xiao, and Zhuan Sunxun, the outstanding disciples of each sect, before.
, have a little understanding.
Only Lu Jia, Fu Nian searched his mind and found nothing.
This person's words are quite sharp and he seems to have bad intentions. He is a former disciple of Uncle Xun. Why have I never heard of him?
Zhuan Sunxun rolled his eyes and saw the expressions of the few people speaking. He pursed his lips and stood aside without saying a word, waiting.
He didn't have any bad feelings towards Lu Yan, and he had more favorable impressions. However, most of the disciples of the Zizhang sect believed themselves to be righteous and wanted to promote the Confucian's verdict against Lu Yan.
Even the master, who was very close to the Taoist sect's poor master, didn't want to speak on Lu Yan's side this time, so he had no choice but to come as ordered.
Everyone did not wait long, and soon they heard the "thump, thump, thump" of footsteps. Two teams of guards first opened the way. Behind them, the horse hooves clicked, and a luxurious carriage appeared in everyone's sight.
"Xu~"
The leader sat high on the horse, waved the signal to stop the carriage, then turned over and dismounted, walked to the carriage with the hilt of the sword at his waist and clasped his fists, "Master, we are here."
Master!
In front of the gate of Little Saint's Village, there were six Dacheng masters gathered here. And these six people, after observing the few steps this man took after dismounting from his horse and landing on the ground, they immediately knew that this man was extraordinary in strength.
Because based on their strength, it was actually difficult to vaguely detect the sound of this person's footsteps as he landed on the ground.
The curtains of the carriage were lifted, and Tian Zhen walked out of it. He saw a bunch of people standing on the side of the Confucian family. They all looked extraordinary and had refined postures, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Hahaha, thank you for waiting so long. Tian Zhen got to meet the Confucian gentlemen today. The food he ate at Haiyue Xiaozhu yesterday, such as the sea reflecting the mountains and the sea, and the shark's fin cooked with bear's paws, have all lost their flavor."
Tian Zhen approached quickly and returned the greetings to everyone with great joy. When he entered the gate of Xiaoshengxian Manor, he did not forget to urge: "Mr. Fu Nian, please quickly introduce to me the talents of Confucianism."
Fu Nian led everyone to the meeting place. The hall had already been arranged. Tian Zhen took a seat, and the other seats were arranged on both sides.
After everyone sat down, Fu Nian began to introduce Tian Zhen one by one.
What is this? Do you want Tian Zhen, a young man who prefers Lu Yan, to preside over today's affairs? Fu Nian, are you really so confident?
Lacquer carving Ji Liang paid attention to Fu Nian's actions while observing the layout of the hall.
The space is reserved very spaciously for debates and swordplay. Lu Yan's behavior has exceeded the bottom line. If Xiaoshengxianzhuang intends to protect him, Fu Nian, don't blame me for being unkind.
"It turns out to be Sword Master Zhanlu, Mr. Chen Xiao, Tian Zhen is disrespectful."
When Chen Xiao was introduced, Tian Zhen was extremely happy. After saying hello, he turned to the person next to him and said, "Zhang Zhong, what do you think? The master of the divine sword Zhan Lu is even more famous when we meet him."
Zhang Zhong was the previous master, and Tian Zhen had a relatively close relationship with him, unlike the rigid superior-subordinate relationship.
His appearance is not outstanding, his eyebrows are very light and thin, his eyes are big and bright, and his red hair is scattered but not messy. When he heard about Chen Xiao, the master of Zhanlu Sword, a sword light flashed in his eyes.
"My Excellency, Zhang Zhong, I have met Mr. Chen Xiao."
Sword intent, fighting intent.
The people present sensed the sword intention and fighting intention from Zhang Zhong's gesture of greeting with fists, and they immediately knew that this Zhang Zhong was probably a good swordsman.
After greeting everyone with a wry smile, Chen Xiao sighed secretly.
The person I meet now is Chen Xiao, the Sword Master of Zhan Lu. When will I be Chen Xiao, the Sword Master of Zhan Lu...
Lu Jia looked at Tian Zhen actively hosting Fu Nian and smiled secretly in his heart:
It is a foregone conclusion that Lu Yan will be expelled from Confucianism. Even the teacher has predicted this result. Fu Nian, you are really wasting your efforts this time.
I wonder if you could still try to defend Lu Yan like you are now if you knew that Lu Yan deliberately caused such a civil strife so that you would be less constrained by Confucianism in Qin in the future.
…
In this way, a just trial about Lu Yan began, inexplicably and mysteriously, presided over by an outsider, the young master Tian Zhen, as everyone had their own agenda.
