Martial Boss Chapter 90

“Mr. Wu Qu.”

“Oh, it’s Mengde.”

Mr. Wu Qu was tall and rugged-looking, wearing an oversized Confucian uniform, more like a martial artist than a scribe. He looked at Qing Yu, who was walking towards him, and smiled.

For this student called Meng De, Wu Qu usually paid more attention to him. Moderate in all aspects and low-key, but what was surprising was his amazing speed of learning and his ability to accept new knowledge. Therefore, Wu Qu actually paid more attention to this seemingly ordinary student than Feng Jiu, whose archery skills had now actually surpa*sed Qing Yu’s.

“Mr. Wu Qu, the student feels that his archery skills have reached the top of the cla*sroom and would like to take a break from this cla*s.” Qing Yu bowed respectfully.

Confucianism is all about “Heaven and Earth, ruler and teacher”, so even if Mr. Wu Qu did not look like a scholar, or even if he looked like a butcher, Qing Yu had to be respectful.

Besides, if he is a teacher in the Shanhe Academy, his name is Wu Qu and he has such a respectable appearance, either the dean is blind and recruits people, or he really has a great talent. Otherwise, how not to recruit someone of similar level, but not so many slots in appearance and name.

“It’s just as well, if you’re not coming to speak to me, I’m coming to you. You’ve learnt everything you need to at this stage, and at this point in the course, it’s no longer of much benefit to you, so just go ahead and study.” Wu Qu said.

“Thank you, sir.” Qing Yu bowed again and left.

I thought I would still have to take a test to teach, but I didn’t expect Mr. Wu Qu to have paid attention to it earlier, so it was good, it saved some time.

——

“Senior Brother Mengde.”

Qing Yu had just walked out of the shooting range where he was practicing his shooting skills when he heard someone call him.

When he looked towards the sound, he saw a white clothed scholar looking at him with a smile under the banyan tree outside the range.

Qing Yu took a few steps and greeted him, “Greetings, Brother Wenxin.”

The scholar who called out to Qing Yu was called Han Wenxin, who, like Feng Jiu, was a core student who had truly cultivated Hao Rang Qi, and had enrolled a year earlier than Feng Jiu.

“Why is Senior Brother Wenxin here?” Qing Yu asked.

Unlike Feng Jiu, who was neglecting the six arts, the other core scholars, basically did not attend cla*ses with Qing Yu, the ordinary scholars, much. Apart from listening to cla*ses at the academy at the top of the mountain from time to time, they actually had a lot of time to spare, so to speak.

The ordinary school lessons were no longer of much benefit to them. This is because Hao Rang Zheng Qi requires more than just a righteous and open heart, it also requires sufficient accumulation of learning as a base.

To be able to cultivate Hao Ran Zheng Qi, they already know all the knowledge that is given to ordinary students. Even, they could go straight to giving lessons to newly initiated scholars.

“Senior Brother Meng De, are you acquainted with the Ninth Prince?” Han Wenxin avoided answering and asked Qing Yu instead.

Feng Jiu? Qing Yu’s eyes narrowed slightly, his friendship with Feng Jiu had not been concealed in any way, and it would not be difficult for someone with a heart to know. But only if one had the heart.

“I have a few friendships with Senior Brother Feng Jiu.” Qing Yu said back.

“Senior brother, in this Mountain River Academy, there are only scholars, not imperial sons.”

“Ha, but I have lost my tongue,” Han Wenxin laughed, “Since Senior Brother Meng De is acquainted with Senior Brother Feng Jiu, would you take a message to Senior Brother Feng Jiu for my brother, please?”

Foolish brother? You’re just like a snake, do I know you that well?

While he was slandering in his heart, Qing Yu smiled brightly on his face and said, “Please speak, senior brother.”

“In ten days’ time, Feng Jiu’s sixth brother will be hosting a banquet at the Ling Yun Pavilion in the divine capital and would like to talk to Feng Jiu. Senior brother, can you speak to senior brother Feng Jiu?” Han Wenxin said.

“This is a small token of appreciation for my brother’s study, so I give it to senior brother.”

Saying that, Han Wenxin stuffed a small yellow booklet to Qing Yu.

“Oh, I never thought that Senior Brother Wenxin would be one of the Sixth Prince’s people.” Qing Yu hid the small yellow book in his sleeve without moving, and said.

“The Sixth Prince is polite and virtuous, and people with knowledge in the world are eager to follow the clouds and willingly serve.” Han Wenxin looked like he had admired him for a long time.

Come on, the Sixth Prince is not even here, who is this look for?

Although his heart disdained, but Qing Yu is also a qualified actor, at once also full of approval, said: “Senior brother’s words are extremely right, the sixth prince’s talent, can be called the crown of all the princes, the world but anyone with eyesight, since the sixth prince should be put under the seat, for the king first ——”

“Eh, senior brother careful!” Han Wenxin hurriedly raised his hand and said.

“Yes, yes, caution, caution ——” Qing Yu smiled sarcastically, “Don’t worry, senior brother will definitely persuade senior brother Feng Jiu to go to the appointment and have a family chat with the sixth prince.”

“Good, senior brother will certainly ask for credit for senior brother to the sixth prince, afterwards reward, essential.” Han Wenxin patted Qing Yu’s shoulder and said with great joy.

“In that case, the matter will be entrusted to senior brother.”

“Please rest a*sured, senior brother and the Sixth Prince.”

“Senior brother may read more of my brother’s insights, and I also wish senior brother to cultivate Hao Rang Qi soon, to be on par with us.”

After saying this, Han Wenxin left with his chest outstretched.

Qing Yu stood where he was, watching his distant shadow with a twinkle in his eyes.

The Sixth Prince had long since graduated from the Shanhe Academy, and had come that day, so it was to draw in the students of the Shanhe Academy to serve him.

Qing Yu fondled the cover of the small yellow book in his sleeve and thought silently.

Qing Yu had already obtained the recipe from Feng Jiu that day. Together with the foundation of the “Heavenly Reason Inner Sage Method”, it was not difficult to simulate the Hao Rang Qi. But from Feng Jiu, he learnt that the core students would go to the top of the mountain from time to time to listen to the lessons. Even Meng Shanhe, who was rumoured to be in seclusion long ago, might also go to the lecture, so Qing Yu dismissed the idea of simulating Hao Ran Zheng Qi and advancing to the core scholars.

The booklet given by Han Wenxin was one that Qing Yu did not want, but after thinking about it, he accepted it for two reasons.

One, Han Wenxin’s mentality when he gave this insight was condescending, with a false gesture of mentioning and doing the rewarding. If he did not accept it, it would inevitably give him a sense of loss of face.

Both, it is said that those who have cultivated their Hao Rong Qi are honest-hearted and deservedly decent people. Han Wenxin’s posture in the face of Qingyu could not be considered a gentleman.

The battle between the royal family, especially the battle between the princes, is a cruel one that no one can imagine, and is disliked by Meng Shan Chang. The people of the Mountain River Academy avoided it for fear of being involved in it. It is curious that a man like Han Wenxin, who has cultivated his righteousness, should be a gentleman, but is involved in this dark and sinister matter.

Therefore, Qing Yu wanted to see Han Wenxin’s so-called insights, and guess what kind of person Han Wenxin was.

This kind of insights from reading can best reveal the heart of a reader. Is Han Wenxin a true gentleman, or is he a hypocrite like Yue Buqun who does superficial work? If he is a hypocrite, how is it that he has managed to cultivate his righteousness?

From what we have seen so far, he doesn’t seem to be a gentleman, so he might have to be a hypocrite.

Of course, we can’t rule out the possibility that the so-called insights are a fake. But if it was a fake, then Han Wenxin would be an even more interesting person.
