No one expected that everyone at Xi would suddenly get into trouble.

After all, in everyone's minds, since he agreed to participate in the Wenqu Banquet and came all the way to Shengjing, he must be willing to give the princess some face.

The current situation is really confusing.

Leng Lanzhi was also stunned.

Ever since the relationship between Qiu Wenwen and King Yue was revealed, no one has been so rude to her for a long time.

But she wasn't angry.

Mr. Xi is known for his upright temperament. She said in the invitation that they had something important to discuss. He may have misunderstood that the important thing she said was to criticize these students' articles.

"Please don't get me wrong, Xi. The important thing I mentioned in the invitation letter is not this." She apologized a little: "It's my fault for not making it clear in advance."

Everyone at Xi raised their eyebrows.

The reason why he came all the way this time was not only to repay a favor to someone, but also for another important reason. Princess Jialuo said that she wanted to invite him to do a major event that would benefit the people of the world.

He knew that Princess Jialuo was different from those fat-headed dignitaries. She was really willing to do practical things for the people, so she was willing to come all the way.

In order to take a shortcut, he abandoned the main road and walked along the small roads with few people, and finally arrived at Xiulan Village today.

After the results came, when Princess Nagara saw him, she did not mention a word about what was stated in the invitation letter. Instead, she asked him to review the articles of literati with the surname Du!

He didn't refuse on the spot, just to refuse it publicly now, so that those guys who tried to use his reputation to endorse would know that he, Xi Qinghe, was no softie!
"Then tell me, what is it?"

Everyone at Xi raised their eyebrows, not intending to discuss this topic.

When the King of Yue led his people into Xiulan Village, he happened to see this scene from a distance and couldn't help but sneered: "You deserve it!"

He has figured out the purpose of the Wenqu Banquet.

This woman's attempt to use her strong authority to coerce and lure everyone to serve as the headmaster of Joseph Academy is simply a fantasy!

Neither Mr. Xi nor Mr. Du can serve as the headmaster of a small school. This would lower their status and style!
He has changed his mind.

I originally planned to announce my return immediately and expose Leng Lanzhi's crime of murdering the emperor's heir and poisoning his brother in front of the world's scholars!

But now, he decided to watch the show first.

After all, the play in front of me is more interesting than the random drama made up by the theater troupe.

"Everyone, Xi, let's wait until the Wenqu Banquet is over. I promise that what you are asking for has absolutely nothing to do with the current affairs."

Everyone at the table was resolute: "Old man, what if I insist on listening now?"

Leng Lanzhi sighed in his heart.

Suddenly, she walked up to everyone Xi and bowed deeply: "Leng Lan, on behalf of thousands of young students in the Sheng Kingdom, please congratulate everyone and become the head of Joseph Academy!"

Except for a few people who could guess her thoughts, everyone else was stunned.

What nonsense is Princess Jialuo saying?

Although she was Emperor Jianliang's favorite daughter and was now named Princess Protector, the Xi family dared not even refuse Emperor Jianliang, and Emperor Jianliang did not embarrass him!
As a prostitute, how dare she try to restrain him with an unfinished school for the poor?
Is that school worthy of it?
Except for Mr. Du, everyone looked at the Xi family with stern eyes, anticipating the scene of him being furious and snarling.

Leng Lanzhi was also a little uneasy.

She didn't want to be the first to explain her purpose before. First of all, she didn't want everyone to think that she was using the influence of thousands of literati to force him.

Secondly, I don’t want to embarrass him.

Third, in order to convince him, she actually prepared a special program for him to watch when no one was around.Leng Lanzhi originally expected to be rejected or reviled with harsh words, but unexpectedly everyone just asked in confusion: "What is Joseph Academy...?"

After Leng Lanzhi decided to open the Joseph Academy, he came up with the idea of ​​letting everyone be the mountain leader, and the Wenqu Banquet was also held based on this.

After making the decision, she ordered someone to send the invitation.

The messenger from the princess's palace is naturally faster than the messenger elsewhere. When the news that "Princess Jialuo will use half of the proceeds from pencils to open a free school" reaches Xi everyone's secluded place, he has already set off for Shengjing .

And because he bypassed the bustling towns all the way and took shortcuts to desolate places, he didn't know what Joseph Academy was.

Leng Lanzhi froze for a moment.

Although I didn’t understand why everyone at the table asked this question, they still told me the origin of Joseph Academy.

"Princess, what you mean is that you invited me here to ask me to be the headmaster of this school?"

"Yes."

Everyone at the table clasped their hands behind their backs and gave Leng Lanzhi a deep look.

He now knew that he had misunderstood the little princess in front of him.

Although she held a high position and was powerful, she was not a bully. She was not the same kind of person as the princes and nobles he hated.

She didn't want to use the literati present to force him, so she wanted to wait until the banquet was over to invite him privately.

At that time, whether he agrees or disagrees, outsiders will have nothing to say.

She's an understanding girl.

"To put it this way, the old man and I have a villainous heart. I am not here to compensate the princess."

Leng Lanzhi quickly supported the person: "I did not explain it in advance, which caused unnecessary misunderstandings. It is my fault."

"It's a good thing for the princess to open a free school, but old man, I'm used to being wild. I'm afraid I won't be able to serve as the mountain leader, so I ask the princess to hire someone else."

"Everyone, Xi, don't be too busy refusing. I still have something I want you to see. Let's talk about it after you've seen it. How about it?"

Everyone at the table immediately understood that the little princess had probably done a lot of work to convince him.

She wanted to talk about it after the Wenqu Banquet was over, just to let him see the "things" she said.

"Princess, can you let me take a look too?" Mr. Du suddenly said.

Leng Lanzhi understood that Mr. Du was trying to help her.

She accepted the sentiment in her heart, but did not want to use the pressure of public opinion to force everyone at Xi.

Just as he was about to refuse, everyone at the table said: "It is better to have fun alone than to have fun together. Let's watch it together."

Leng Lanzhi swallowed her polite refusal: "Okay, everyone, wait a moment."

Liusha understood, turned and walked towards the outside of Qionglin Garden.

The guests of the Wenqu Banquet were not only adult scholars and talented ladies, but also a group of children.

At that time, Feixing Garden was not far from Qionglin Garden.

Dozens of little carrot heads were divided into two distinct groups of people, each of which was surrounded by a young man in brocade clothes.

These two young men were clearly He Yanyue and Shen Linan. (End of chapter)
