After being divorced, my identity as a poet was exposed

Li Chenan and others settled down comfortably.

Bai Xiaotian, the great elder in black clothes and white hair who came from Songjiazhuang, was extremely depressed!
"I'll give you some money!"

"Uncle, you can't even give me money! This inn has been rented by our magistrate Tian!"

Standing at the door of Changping Inn, Bai Xiaotian looked at the short shopkeeper in front of him, "Are there any vacant rooms? I'll give you double, no, triple the money!"

The short shopkeeper thought for a moment and shook his head:
"Uncle, I'm afraid you don't know that the regent of our Ning Kingdom has come to Youzhou City!"

"That's the regent! I heard that he will ascend the throne as emperor when he returns to Kyoto. Then he will be the emperor of our Ning Kingdom!"

"I'm afraid you don't know that the regent and his heavenly soldiers killed and ate the second eagle of the Great Wilderness Kingdom!"

"I heard there were ten thousand eagles!"

"Is this a triumphant return?"

"The regent is going to rest in our Youzhou City. This is a blessing for the people of Youzhou. Of course, Magistrate Tian must entertain our regent well and will never allow anything to go wrong..."

"If I don't worry about you, uncle, if you are a bad guy and want to assassinate the regent... If this happens in my little inn, even if I have a hundred heads, I won't be able to chop it off. !”

The short shopkeeper's head shook like a rattle, and he waved his hand again: "It's not that the shop won't make it convenient for you, but this matter is really too big, so you'd better find another place!"

Bai Xiaotian took a deep breath and asked, "Could it be that the regent lives in your inn?"

The short shopkeeper shrugged: "I don't know!"

"But there are indeed hundreds of people living in the shop, and maybe the regent is among them."

"Even if the regent is not here, sir, I can't afford to offend Magistrate Tian!"

"This is an order from Magistrate Tian. If you look back, the police in the government office are watching in secret!"

What can Bai Xiaotian do?

You can't just draw your sword and kill the shopkeeper!

He could only leave angrily.

Walking on the lonely street, he found that he, the elder of the Daqi Gang, was feeling aggrieved!
Two years ago, the leader of the Daqi Gang, Baima Xiaoxifeng and Wei Changhe, was invited to Zhouzhuang on Jiangnan Road to attend Zhou Dashan's [-]th birthday party. When he went there... he lost his life in Zhouzhuang!
The leader of a dignified low-level gang who was almost invincible in the Northern Desert died in the hands of the leader of Wanxi Zhai Zhai!

I heard that the owner of Wanxi Zhai Zhai was named Xiao, but I didn’t know his name.

I heard that Master Xiao Zhai is already half a great master!

I also heard that she has been by Li Chenan's side!

Everyone in the Daqi Gang vowed to avenge the gang leader!
The gang leader died, leaving behind a 16-year-old son. His original name was Wei Xu, but now his name has been changed to Wei Hongxue!

He became the young leader of the Daqi Gang!

This young gang leader has only taken over the banner gang for more than a year, and his performance seems to be three points better than his father!
The young gang leader actually got involved with the mysterious old man from Bei Mo Road.

Today, the Daqi Gang has become the largest escort agency in Beimo Road and the largest private salt dealer behind it.

Just by selling private salt, the Daqi Gang's financial resources are now stronger than ever before!
The young gang leader was not only practicing martial arts hard, he also used the money to recruit many people from the martial arts world and formed a private army of 3000 people!
Of course, these private soldiers are not within the borders of Beimodao.

Rather, it is outside the North Desert Road, in a wasteland at the junction with the Great Wilderness Country.

Ordinarily, the Daqi Gang should be more prosperous than before, but the young gang leader has given an order that everyone in the Daqi Gang must keep a low profile as much as possible!
This has been low-key for more than a year, so that the Daqi Gang seems to be gradually forgotten in the world.

This time Li Chenan came from Annan Road to Beimo Road. The young gang leader had already known the news, but the young gang leader did not come here.

No one knows where the young gang leader went or what he was doing.

The only person following the young gang leader was a slave from his hometown who stayed when the old gang leader was still alive.

There is a leader of the Daqi Gang in Youzhou City, but Bai Xiaotian has no intention of going there.

First of all, the Daqi Gang's gangster was running a legitimate escort business and had nothing to do with selling illegal salt.

Secondly...the leader of the Youzhou Banner Gang is not very good at dealing with him, the great elder.

Just walking like this, thinking like this, before he knew it, Bai Xiaotian came to the archway outside Youzhou Academy.

I looked up and thought for a while, I might as well find a place in this academy to spend the night.

So he went in.

The road in the academy is straight and quite wide, but there are no lights.

The academy was also quiet, no sound of reading was heard, and no one was seen.

It's like walking into a deserted land!
As an out-and-out Youzhou native, although Bai Xiaotian did not grow up in Youzhou City, he had already heard of the name of Youzhou Academy.

Although Bei Mo Dao is poor, each of the thirteen states in Bei Mo Dao has its own academies.In the past history, Youzhou Academy was simply brilliant!

Regardless of whether it is literary studies or scientific examinations, it completely beats the other major academies of the twelve schools.

Even in Yunzhou, where the Northern Desert Daoist Palace is located, Yunzhou Academy is not as good as Youzhou Academy.

But that was 20 years ago!

Today's Youzhou Academy has long since declined.

Not to mention the students, I heard that even the teachers have left here to make a living in other academies.

Bai Xiaotian didn't know what the reason was, and he wasn't interested in knowing.

I just feel a little regretful in my heart, sighing that its beauty is no longer there.

Just walking like this, still not meeting anyone, but I saw a little light in the distance!
Bai Xiaotian felt a little strange, so he walked towards the light.

It was a small courtyard next to the academy.

There is a laurel tree in the small courtyard, and a lamp hangs on the tree. Under the lamp sits an... old man!

The old man is reading a book with squinted eyes.

Bai Xiaotian came to the door of the yard, thought for a while, pushed open the low fences and walked in.

The old man was still reading with his eyes squinted, as if he didn't know anyone was coming in.

It wasn't until Bai Xiaotian sat across from the old man that the old man raised his head in surprise and looked at Bai Xiaotian in astonishment.

"His Majesty...who is it?"

"I'm Bai, Baihei. What's your surname, sir?"

"I'm Zeng Pengcheng...Bai Hei...how come this name seems familiar? Why does Brother Bai come here late at night?"

"Ah, when I was young, I studied at Youzhou Academy for two years. In the blink of an eye, 50 years have passed. It's not the right time to go back to Youzhou, so I wanted to come and have a look."

Zeng Pengcheng put down the book in his hand, and a smile appeared on his old face:
"Oh...it turns out to be a former classmate!"

"I wonder if Brother Bai studied under that master's name back then?"

Bai Xiaotian was immediately dumbfounded, thinking that I was just making up an excuse casually. Could it be that this old master also went to school here 50 years ago?
He stroked his long beard, thought carefully for a moment, and shook his head: "Hey, I'm ashamed to say that!"

"When I was a boy, I didn't know how to cherish the best time. When I went to school... I mostly did some inconspicuous things, so that I didn't even remember my former husband."

When Zeng Pengcheng heard this, he immediately leaned over and his eyes lit up: "You, Baihei... Xiaobai?!"

"My husband often said that you don't distinguish between right and wrong, and you don't know right from wrong... You even lifted the skirt of a girl named Du Zhiyue!"

Zeng Pengcheng laughed and raised a finger to point at Bai Xiaotian:

"You are Xiaobai!"

"I, Pengcheng, my classmates called me Zeng Daniao at that time, do you remember?"

Bai Xiaotian was stunned.

I chose a name so randomly, and I ended up being classmates with this old master!
Is there such a coincidence?

But what can he do now?

He nodded quickly and said very warmly: "I remember, Zeng Daniao... why do you stay here?"

"Hey……"

Zeng Pengcheng's face suddenly darkened: "It's a long story."

"Looking at your outfit, you look like you've returned home in glory, but as for me... I'm still guarding this academy..."

"Do you have money? I'll ask the book boy to buy some food and drinks. How about we chat while drinking?"

Bai Xiaotian just wanted to find a place to sleep, but he never expected that old man Zeng would want to reminisce with him!
How can this be done?

He took out a piece of silver from his arms.

"Most of the past has been forgotten."

Zeng Pengcheng took the ingot of silver and grinned: "It's okay. No one has chatted with me for a long time. I feel quite lonely."

"Xiao Bai..."

Bai Xiaotian's whole body felt bad. (End of chapter)
