I write novels to become a saint

Chapter 204

Li Rusong was sitting behind the desk, his face sinking like water, while the official staff was on duty, Luo Zunzheng, the father of Luo Cheng whom Lin Hong wanted to please, stood in front of the desk, and his face was also not very good-looking.

Ever since Lin Qian defeated the barbarian cavalry outside the city of Hongdu, Li Rusong hadn't been home, and he couldn't sleep.

At first, he thought it was just a small reform trial, but Lin Qian made such a big splash. He didn't expect that Lin Qian's methods would be so tough. What he didn't expect was that the content of Lin Qian's reform, It is very different from the previous reform proposals of the New Party headed by Xia Yan.

In other words, the content of this reform may not have been proposed by Xia Yan, but by Lin Qian himself.

With Li Rusong's intelligence, he immediately thought of the Heavenly Dao article. Although he hadn't seen the Heavenly Dao article with his own eyes, he was [-]% sure that it was an article about political reform. It is very likely that Lin Qian was in Hongdu The reform carried out is the content of that Tiandao article.

Because only in this way can Xia Yan let Lin Qian do it boldly. After all, even the Dao of Heaven approves it, which can give Xia Yan enough confidence.

But what Li Rusong didn't expect was that Xia Yan would give this opportunity to Lin Qian to reform. This is an opportunity for Lide, and it is also an opportunity for Xia Yan to attack the semi-sage. Just give it to a little guy with no hair yet , Li Rusong asked himself, he couldn't do this step.

The more this happened, the more frightened he was. He didn't know what else Lin Qian could do. He didn't know what else was in that Heavenly Dao article. Just what's shown now, the tax reform and the equal input method, have already made him He felt a great threat.

Especially those [-] barbarian cavalry who were beheaded outside Hongdu City!
If Lin Qian was really able to achieve results, he would completely lose his chance.

But now, Lin Qian is gaining momentum, all he can do is wait, this is the reason for his anger.

……

On the second day of Dongyang Hou's birthday banquet, Lin Qian went to the palace to face the saint.

Emperor Qianyuan left after a commendation, and then Lin Qian accompanied the Ministry of Rites to perform a lot of tedious and lengthy ceremonies, so boring that Lin Qian almost fell asleep.

Moreover, these ceremonies could not be completed in a day or two, which made Lin Qian, who was eager to return to Hongdu as soon as possible, anxious but had no choice but to wait.

On the third day, after finishing offering sacrifices to heaven and ancestors, Lin Qian finally relaxed. He went to the palace to play backgammon with Yongan for a while, and after playing hopscotch and other small games for a while, he left the palace to accompany his elder brother and younger sister Strolling around in Chang'an City, it seemed that they hadn't walked and played like this for a long time.

If he had a choice, Lin Qian would rather stay in Changsha City, go to a college to be a master, or take advantage of opportunities to be a businessman. Everyday life is the same, but peaceful and happy.

Speaking of academies, the three brothers and sisters came to the famous Bailu Academy in Chang'an City unknowingly. Bailu Academy is one of the four major academies in Dagan, which is as famous as the Xingtie Academy in Hongdu Prefecture.

Thinking of what he had encountered in the Hongdu Mansion Academy, Lin Qian had a thought, and walked into the academy with his elder brother and younger sister.

Unlike Xingtie Academy, which is almost completely occupied by barbarians, White Deer Academy still has a large number of high-ranking students. Although there are occasionally a few barbarians passing by, they are not as arrogant as those in Xingtie Academy. , far from Tiangao Road in the north, they don't have the confidence to be arrogant.

This is also a matter of course. This is Chang'an City. The students who can study in Bailu Academy are either rich or expensive. These barbarians still have some sense of proportion.

Those mud legs in Hongdu cursed when they cursed, beat them when they beat them, insulted them when they insulted them, what could they do?
But if they beat up the students of Bailu Academy, they might be unable to eat and walk away.

Especially after hearing that Dagan killed [-] barbarian cavalry outside the city of Hongdu, these barbarian students became even more low-key.

Not only that, but after arriving at the dormitory area, Lin Qian found that Bailu Academy was worthy of being an academy in Chang'an City, and they did not give special treatment to barbarians. Although the dormitory areas for Dagan students and barbarian students were still separated, they were not too Big difference, no discrimination.

Combined with the identity of the students of Bailu Academy, the senior management of the academy probably wouldn't dare to let the students live in the dilapidated houses.

But as soon as he walked to the foreign student dormitory, Lin Qian frowned again. Here he saw a group of high-spirited students. What puzzled Lin Qian the most was that these students were holding brooms, rags and other cleaning products in their hands. Tool, was walking out of the barbarian student area with a tired face.

"What are you doing?"

Lin Qian stopped a student and asked.

"What else can I do? Clean up."

The student who was stopped looked a little impatient, but seeing Lin Qian's extraordinary demeanor, he did not dare to vent his anger on Lin Qian, but answered Lin Qian's question honestly.

It was obvious that these were poor students, otherwise, with the temperament of those rich and powerful students, Lin Qian would have lost if he could give Lin Qian a good look.

"Clean up the barbarians?"

"if not?"

"Why do you need to clean?"

"Ask the dean, why are you asking me?"

Although this student tried his best to suppress his anger, his tone of answer was rather aggressive. Anyone who encounters such a thing will probably not be in a good mood. The dormitory of foreign students needs to be cleaned by a large number of students. no.

Lin Qian nodded and got out of the way, otherwise he felt that this student might hit him with a broom.

I have to say that the leadership of White Deer Academy is still of a certain level. They can't afford to offend the rich and powerful students, and they can't control the poor students?

Lin Qian didn't listen to one side's story either, he decided to inquire first, whether this is the rotation of Bailu Academy, or these poor students are just work-study or something, of course, Lin Qian himself knows that this possibility is very small.

"You guys, what are you doing?"

Before taking a few steps to the foreign students' dormitory, a woman in a Confucian robe suddenly came out, pointed at Lin Qian and the others, and asked sternly.

"I'm here to visit the foreign student dormitory."

Lin Qian was well-informed, so naturally he wouldn't be intimidated by this woman.

This is a high-ranking woman, about forty years old, probably not a student, but the manager of Bailu Academy.

"visit?"

"What qualifications do you have to enter the dormitory for foreign students?"

"What qualifications do you have to come in and visit?"

Hearing Lin Qian's words, the woman became even more angry. Although she was a head shorter than Lin Qian, she held her chest up high, as if she wanted to push Lin Qian down.

"Forehead……"

Lin Qian was a little embarrassed. He had never heard that Bailu Academy did not allow people outside the academy to visit, and there was no relevant sign, but this matter was indeed his fault, and he was going to leave after apologizing.

However, the woman still seemed puzzled, and continued to ask, "Which class are you in?"

"Who is your wife?"

"???"

Lin Qian was completely confused. Did this woman regard them as academy students?
But since she regards them as students of the academy, why are they not eligible to enter the dormitory area for foreign students?Aren't those savages just playing around in the dormitory of the Dagan students?
I didn't see anyone to stop them either.

Immediately, Lin Qian was relieved, no wonder others looked down on the Dagan people, even the Dagan people themselves looked down on the Dagan people, the super-national treatment these barbarians enjoyed in Dagan, even the people who served these foreign students looked down on their own people , it is really absurd.

I don't know what kind of mood Zhu Daru, who founded Bailu Academy, would feel when he saw this situation.

"I'm not from the academy, we're leaving now."

After all, Lin Qian didn't say much. After all, this is not Hongdu. He doesn't have the power to overwhelm the sky, so he can't change anything, but if he has that ability, he will return the pure land of Bailu Academy.

"what?"

"Aren't you from the academy?"

The woman became even more proud when she heard the words, "Who are you? What is your plan for coming to the academy? Why did you break into the dormitory for foreign students?"

Lin Qian ignored her series of questions, turned around and walked towards the gate of the courtyard. He didn't want to stay in such a smelly place for a second.

"Do you want to leave?"

"Come on, follow me to see the dean!"

The woman stepped forward quickly and stopped in front of Lin Qian and the three of them.

"Step aside."

Lin Qian snorted. He was too lazy to argue with this kind of person. As for the cleaning that he was about to find out just now, he didn't need to ask any more, the answer was already obvious.

As the words came out, it seemed that an invisible force pushed the woman in front of her away, so that she could only watch Lin Qian and the three of them leave.

Lin Qian, who has already reached the fourth-grade gentleman's realm, no longer needs to recite poems or use quick-casting spells to practice Confucianism. The Confucianism cultivator of the gentleman's realm already has some ability to speak the law, especially when dealing with this low-level Confucianism. Xiu, it couldn't be more useful.

It wasn't until the three of Lin Qian left that the woman broke out in a cold sweat.

Although she is only a Confucianist cultivator of the Ninth-Rank Enlightenment Realm, but the other party can make him powerless to resist with just a word, which is at least a high-grade Confucianism Cultivator of the Fifth-Rank Bright Artistic Realm.

If the other party really cared about her just now, she might not be able to please her.

But she recovered quickly, so what about the fifth-grade Confucianism cultivator, she is from Bailu Academy, so the other party dares to do anything to her?
"How could they allow their own people to be slaves to barbarians?"

After leaving the White Deer Academy, Lin Xinyun said indignantly that because her parents died at the hands of Manzi, although she didn't show it, she still had a deep prejudice against Manzi in her heart. , Instinctively feel uncomfortable and nauseous.

Lin Zhen on the side had a calm expression on his face. He preferred to make a move when he was absolutely sure, and then killed him with one blow, rather than expressing his dissatisfaction with words. This was very similar to Lin Qian.

And this kind of thing has been seen too much in Hongdu. He is different from Lin Qian. He only hopes that his younger brother and sister are safe and sound. What does the life and death of other people have to do with him?

After this incident, the three of them lost the intention of going shopping, and walked towards their small courtyard in a dull manner.

"woo woo woo woo……"

Not long after walking, the three of them suddenly heard a shrill cry.

There were already many people around at this time, only a woman in the middle was wiping tears and looking around, full of hesitation and bewilderment.

"What happened?"

Lin Xinyun curiously asked a grandfather who was watching.

The old man turned his head vigilantly at first, but when he saw such a lovely girl asking questions, he smiled kindly and explained, "This woman brought her seven-year-old son to Chang'an City for the first time. I didn't expect that people in Chang'an City would Too many, walking away, she got separated from her son, and couldn't find her son, isn't this just shedding tears here."

"Why didn't she report the child to the police? You should send someone to look for it quickly. What's the use of wiping tears here?"

Lin Qian couldn't help but interjected, although the security in Chang'an City is good, but the best time to rescue a missing child is 24 hours, the sooner you look for it, the greater the chance of finding it, actually crying here, it's really a woman Zhiren.

The old man glanced at Lin Qian and didn't give him a good look.

"That's right, why don't you report to the officials? With the help of officials, you should be able to find them quickly."

It wasn't until Lin Xinyun asked the same question that the old man shook his head and sighed again, "I have already reported to the government, but the officials have more important things to do, so how can I find her a child!"

"What a poor woman. It doesn't matter if she is new here. Who will help her..."

The old man shook his head. He was just a dying old man, and there was nothing he could do to help him.

Lin Qian stopped talking, and walked towards Jingzhao Mansion. He can still help with this matter. There are many injustices in the world, and he may not be able to handle them, but if he encounters them and can help, he will still shot.

However, before he took a few steps, he saw a group of officials walking towards him.

Lin Qian finally showed a smile on his face. There is still true love in the world. These officials say they don't have time, but this is still coming in a mighty way.

"Have you ever seen a dog with white hair?"

"About this high, this long..."

The officials scattered in all directions, caught the people around and asked, "If you can provide clues, you will be rewarded with 50 taels of silver!"

"???"

Lin Qian was puzzled again, didn't these officials find children for women?
Looking for a dog?What kind of dog is worth such a battle, searching all over the city with great fanfare?Could it be the dog raised by Emperor Qianyuan?
"My lord, my lord, please help me find my poor child..."

When the woman saw the official servant, she clung to her weepingly, knelt down in front of a leading official servant, and begged bitterly, "I beg..."

"Go away, don't you see that Grandpa is busy?"

The officer kicked the woman away without even looking at her. It could be seen that he was indeed a little angry. After all, if the dog was not found, the problem would be serious.

Seeing this appearance, Lin Qian couldn't help being curious anymore, and asked the old man beside him, "What kind of dog are they looking for?"

The old man smiled, and the sarcasm on his face was undisguised. After laughing for a long time, he snorted and said, "What kind of dog can it be, a pet dog!"

"A few hours ago, a barbarian overseas student said that his dog was lost. The Lord Fu Yin sent people to search the whole process, and even sent people to the Southern Army to request the mobilization of troops to assist in the search. He also issued a death order. Find the dog before Hei, absolutely nothing will happen to Master Man’s dog."

"No, they have already searched for it several times, and Chang'an City is almost overturned by them."

"I see, they don't need to look for any dogs anymore. They go and tell that barbarian that they can be the barbarian's dog themselves. If they lose a dog and get so many dogs, Mr. Man will be very happy."

The old man said with a sarcasm on his face, and when he saw the officer walking towards him, the sneer on his face suddenly turned into a flattering smile, "My lord, I didn't see it. If I saw it, I would be the first to run to the official to inform you."

……

In the end, Lin Qian relied on his relationship to find some servants to help, and finally found a little boy on Qipan Street who was holding up candied haws and was about to walk with a ragged man.

If it was one step later, the little boy would probably show up begging on the street tomorrow with a broken limb.

The woman found the little boy, and hugged him tightly in her arms in a hurry. Tears welled up again, and then she let go of the little boy, holding his hand with one hand, as if she was afraid that he would get lost again , but the other hand hit him hard on the ass.

The moment the slap fell, the little boy burst into tears, crying so hard that it was heart-piercing.

"Tell you to be disobedient, tell you to run around, tell you to eat food given by others..."

Seeing the way the woman gritted her teeth, the slap did not hold back at all. She wanted to beat this naughty little guy so that he would remember the lesson of today so that he would not make the same mistake today.

"Okay, okay, now that you've found it, let's go find relatives."

In the end, it was Lin Qian who saw that the woman was almost beaten, so he stepped forward to stop her.

The woman was almost out of anger, and felt a little heartbroken for the child, so she went down the donkey, dragged the child who was still in pain and knelt down in front of Lin Qian and the others, "Benefactor, thank you benefactor, if it weren't for you, I would have died." I really don't know what to do..."

"Get up, get up quickly."

After another round of procrastination, when Lin Qian and the three returned to the small courtyard, it was already sunset.

……

Lin Xinyun was happily busy in the kitchen, while Lin Qian and Lin Zhen were sitting in the small courtyard enjoying the cool evening breeze.

Immersed in the Palace of Literature, things are busy these days, and Lin Qian's updates are also intermittent. Many readers are gnashing their teeth with hatred, and they are like baboons out of control. It's a pity that they don't know who the author is, otherwise, Lin Qian's safety I am afraid that I will be greatly threatened.

With a little free time in the past few days, Lin Qian also conscientiously wrote more content, and finally finished "Sentimental Swordsman Ruthless Sword".

He has already thought about the next novel to be serialized - "Dragon and Babu", this time he does not plan to make too many revisions, just treat it as a fictional world.

Although Lin Zhen sat quietly at the side, Lin Qian could feel the muscles around his elder brother's body moving and agitating. This was the fifth-grade strength of a warrior. He needed to know his body well, master his own strength perfectly, and not waste a single bit of it.

In this quiet moonlight, a black shadow flashed across the royal court of the barbarians in the north. This black shadow was like a night owl with huge wings, only a pair of eyes reflected a faint light, representing He is overlooking the land.

This was the scout sent by Lin Qian. Ten thousand cavalrymen of the barbarians were buried outside Hongdu City. He believed that the barbarians would definitely respond.

They were all equipped with the glider that Lin Qian worked out. At this time, the wings and frame of the glider were painted as black as the night sky. Under the cover of the night, they seemed to blend into the night.

Because the flying altitude was very high, it was difficult to find him on the ground, and he did not use extraordinary power, and the barbarian masters were also unaware, so these seven or eight scouts were allowed to pass through the sky outside the royal court.

But at this time their faces were not good. They had already noticed that the barbarians had changed, so they came to check tonight, and found that the barbarian army had gathered.

It is self-evident what the barbarian army is gathering at this time.

Flying over the territory of the barbarian king's court, the scouts began to control the glider to land, and they had to send the news back as soon as possible.

In the territory of the barbarians, because of the suppression of the national movement of the barbarians, there is no way to use the palace of literature, so they must send the news to the Confucianism cultivators who meet them outside the barbarians as soon as possible, so that the news can be sent back to Dagan.

After landing, several people neatly chopped the glider into pieces, then dug a hole in the desert, and buried the pieces separately. The ground of the desert is extremely hard. Fortunately, they are all warriors with sharp weapons, so this did not delay too much time.

"What are you doing?"

However, just when the few people were about to leave, a group of barbarian patrol cavalry suddenly appeared here. Seeing these people, they felt suspicious and rode their horses to surround them.

Several scouts looked at each other, and they all saw the will of death in each other's eyes. The next moment, they scattered like birds and beasts, and fled in all directions.

boom!
A firework exploded in mid-air, causing commotion in the royal court in the distance, and soon, several torches rushed out of the royal court and came straight to here.

At the same time, the barbarian cavalry also divided into several teams and chased the scattered scouts.

……

In Chang'an City, Xia Yan, who had already fallen asleep, was awakened by a sudden knock on the door.

"My lord, it's not good, the barbarian army is assembled and ready to go south!"

Opening the door, the old housekeeper's words made Xia Yan lose all sleepiness.

This scene was staged in countless mansions in Chang'an City.

At the same time, a bell rang in the imperial city of Chang'an City, resounding throughout the city.

Then came the second sound, the third sound...

Nine times in a row!
The entire Chang'an City was completely quiet after boiling for a moment. The people living in Chang'an City knew what the bell meant, and nine tones meant that Dagan had reached a critical moment of life and death.

The last time the nine bells rang, it was the barbarians who invaded Dagan on a large scale. That time, Dagan almost destroyed the country. In the end, they ceded the sixteenth city of Yanyun and paid countless indemnities. Ten years later, Dagan, with its vast land and rich resources, fell into a trap. The crisis was quelled only when the treasury was empty.

So this time, how to deal with it?

At this moment, not only the high-ranking officials, but also the common people were also nervous, and even some timid people had already started to pack up their belongings, preparing to leave the city at dawn and head south when the city gate opened.

The originally closed gates of the imperial city had already been opened wide. In the middle of the night, all civil and military officials got up from their beds and rushed to the imperial city.

On the Golden Luan Hall, Emperor Qianyuan had already sat on the dragon chair with a face as heavy as water, just watching the civil and military officials filing in so quietly, as if a torrential rain might fall at any moment.
