Chapter 102

However, he knew that in this situation, he would definitely bring about disaster if he did so.

He had been a government official for so many years, but he had always relied on his origin ability.

Now, if he attacked An Zui, he would immediately be targeted.

The division kept an eye on the rivalry, and if the rivalry between the division and his son died instantly, the division would soon turn its spearhead on him.

Chen is said to have ascended to the rank of the Ministry of Military Affairs and urgently needs to establish his authority.

If An Zaiyi died in the war and lost the face of the military, Chen Zaiyan wouldn’t let the matter rest.

What about the empress dowager?

Ding Yin thought about his position with the empress dowager and couldn’t help but feel helpless.

The empress dowager didn’t think much of him. If the empress dowager had no choice but to sacrifice someone in exchange for a compromise with the military, then who else could this person be but herself?

So Ding Huan was very vexed, very angry.

He had been an official in the capital for so many years, but at the most crucial moment, he was actually inferior to a brat from the countryside.

People from the Infantry Division would bite him like mad dogs, but what if he died?

I’m afraid not many people care.

It was impossible for the empress dowager and the king to fall out in such a short period of time.

Chen Zaiyan was raised by the king himself, and his attitude was abnormally resolute. Even the empress dowager wasn’t willing to break up with him, so what weight did he have to fight the king?

The current situation was that although both of his sons were injured, they were still alive.

However, if he were to make a move on An Ying without any scruples, he might end up as a wreck in the end.

However, the thought of his wife’s viciousness made his scalp tingle.

If he didn’t do something, how could his wife just let him go?

In a bad mood, Ding Yin had no choice but to go to the Ministry of Rites to hide for a few days.

On the side of the Martial Arts Academy, An Zhe actually didn’t care too much about the assessment. Whether it was the choice of questions or the exam in the afternoon, it was nothing at all.

But as he and Skinny Du ate lunch to prepare for the afternoon test, the argument about him became more intense.

Martial Arts Academy, meeting hall.

Chang Huan shook her head. “”I don’t know why the War Department likes this person, but I personally don’t like him.””

This person had provoked the public’s resentment with a single sentence during the exam in the morning, causing almost everyone to lose their yearning for the Martial Arts Academy.

However, another sentence made people happy. It once again filled those students with hope for the Martial Arts Academy.

“”Such a person can stir up so many emotions with just a single mouth. He will definitely be a potential danger in the future.””

Xu Chao shook his head, “”Isn’t that his ability?””

“”On the battlefield, a general who doesn’t know how to inspire the courage of soldiers can’t be considered a qualified general.””

The Vice Principal let out a cold humph, “”So you’re saying that Lord Xu thinks you are a qualified general?””

Xu Chao said: “”I dare not, I am only a sixth grade lowly one.””

However, the Vice Principal of the Martial Arts Academy was only more than half the level of Xu Chao.

Yan Gui snorted coldly and said, “”People of the Martial Arts Academy only want those who strictly obey the martial law, not those who lead the ruckus.””

Even if the military forces force this man into their midst, I don’t think he will be able to do anything big in the future.

Instead of making him cause chaos in the Martial Arts Academy, he might as well send him to the border army.

“”Didn’t the military feel that this person is a talent that they could create? That is the military experience. He is much better than when he was in the academy.””

Wang Kai-Tai, who had been sitting at the side without saying anything, asked coldly, “”Vice headmaster, you’re saying that Fringe Army is inferior to the Martial Arts Academy?””

It was only then that he realized he had misspoke. Wang Kaitai was from the border army, which was tantamount to offending Wang Kaitai.

He hurriedly said, “”General, you misunderstand. I’m saying that this person’s personality is more suitable for fighting on the battlefield and not for becoming a student.””

Wang Kai Tai clasped his hands. “”When the Wen King founded the Martial Arts Academy, there was a saying that I don’t know if the Vice Principal still remembers … The School of Martial Arts is for the men of my Great Yan Dynasty to give their allegiance to the nation.””

The Wen King created a martial institution for the students and opened a door for them. Why … does the Vice Principal feel that this door is too big and intends to close it? “”

His reserved expression changed, and he no longer spoke.

Wang KaiTai brought up the King Wen’s words, how could he dare to retort?

The Dean of the Martial Arts Academy, Sang Haijing, slowly walked in from outside and looked at the people in the room. “”Everyone, please follow me out to pick up the carriage. The empress dowager and her Majesty will be arriving at the Martial Arts Academy in a moment.””

Everyone was startled. Why did the empress dowager and king come at the same time?

After having dinner, An Zeng and the others were about to return to the Martial Arts Academy when they suddenly saw a familiar figure at the gate. Therefore, An Zeng was a little annoyed. He didn’t like this feeling.

Chen Shaobai.

An Zizheng let them return to the Martial Arts Courtyard first, then he walked towards Chen Shaobai alone.

As he got closer, he noticed that something was amiss.

Chen Shaobai did not wear the familiar black robe, but rather a very exquisite white embroidered robe … that was the official uniform of the imperial bodyguard.

Judging from his clothes, he was actually one of the most prestigious imperial guards.

“”What are you doing here again?””

Anjou asked.

Chen Shaobai turned around and glanced at An Zeng. “”Don’t be too narcissistic. Do you think I’m here to look for you?””

He pointed to his own clothes and said, “”I am the fifth grade imperial guard of Great Yan’s brocade palace. I am the imperial guard of the brocade palace.””

“”So little darling, why aren’t you bowing when you see me?””

An Zeng frowned, “”Which shop is it made into? It’s rather similar.””

Chen Shaobai stared at An Zhan. “”You don’t believe me?””

Believe it or not.

“”In a while, the empress dowager and the King of Yan will be coming to the Martial Arts Academy to watch you brats’ exams. I’m here to order them in advance.””

In fact, An Zhe didn’t suspect Chen Shaobai because no one dared to fake his clothes. Not to mention, there were so many imperial bodyguards wearing embroidered flying fish white silk clothing who were full of respect towards Chen Shaobai; this already showed Chen Shaobai’s identity.

“”I just want to know how you got in.””

Anjou asked.

Chen Shaobai replied with a straight face, “”What beauty.””

An Zhan: “”Scram …””

Chen Shaobai pursed his lips, “”You still don’t believe me, do you believe me?””

Since I saw you, I’ll remind you. In a moment, some people by the empress dowager’s side might want to embarrass you.

If I were you, I would obediently show off my disgrace and let those people be satisfied with it.

If they are not satisfied, they may find some other way to make things difficult for you.

“”How about this, I’ll show you a clear path … Although you don’t look beautiful, your health is good. The empress dowager likes strong ones.””

An Zhan said, “”Scram twice.””

Chen Shaobai laughed heartily, “”Please beg me, please beg me, I will help you solve this problem.””

“”Why did you help me?””

Chen Shaobai leaned forward, “”I love you.””

Anson felt goosebumps all over his body. He turned around and left. “”Alright then, I’m leaving.””

Chen Shaobai curled his lips, “”You’re still not grateful? You don’t even know how much I’ve done for you. You’re really a heartbroken man.””

An Zeng quickened his pace, wishing he could fly.

Chen Shaobai waited until An He left before muttering to himself, “”Actually, you know why I helped you. It’s only because you don’t know my identity.””

Perhaps when the big day comes, you and I will never be able to laugh and talk like this again.

“”An Zou … I still have the same words. Don’t die too quickly, I want to be your opponent.””

He turned around and arranged his men to be on alert in the martial field. Not long after the people were assigned, a large number of Imperial Guards arrived.

The three hundred and sixty silver-armored cavalrymen in front looked extremely majestic. They were the same height as a white horse and wore the same silver mask.

They crossed the street in an orderly fashion, bearing the banner of the Great Swallow.

Behind the cavalrymen were one hundred and twenty imperial bodyguards, tightly protecting the two carriages.

Behind the carriage was the entourage in the palace, which was very long.

Chen Shaobai looked around and realized that no one was paying attention to him, so he walked inside the Martial Arts Courtyard.

Not long after An Zaihai entered the Martial Arts Academy, he saw Sang Haijing, the Principal of the Five Courtyard, leading a large group of people towards the entrance. Sang Haijing’s footsteps were light and unsteady; it was obvious that she was not feeling well either.

When he saw An Zaiyue, he paused for a moment. Then, after giving a few instructions, he walked towards An Zhe.

“”For peace.””

Sanghai Sutra called for a standoff.

An Zhan hurriedly saluted, “”Greetings, headmaster.””

Sang Hai waved his hand. “”There’s no need for so many false ceremonies. I only stopped you because I wanted to apologize to you and your friend on behalf of my grandson, Sang Rou.””

Rou-Er doesn’t understand right and wrong when she’s young, so she blamed me and her parents for not being educated enough.

I never felt that there should be any difference between men and women, at least in the sense of right and wrong.

“”Her words were a bit too much. I will properly teach her a lesson when we get back.””

An Zhan said, “”This student has been too rash. I have been a bit rough on my handling of the problem.””

Sang Haijing shook her head. “”I can’t fight. I’ve been in poor health ever since I was young.””

“”If I could fight, I would have already.””

The adorable old man winked at An Zeng. “”Don’t worry, Vice Minister Ding Hsiu, the Minister of Rites, is afraid to do anything to you for the time being. He is a timid person.””

However, you have to be more careful in the future, Soseki... it’s not a good thing.

“”Envy can drive people crazy. There are many people who are jealous of your luck right now.””

“”Thank you for your care, Mr. Dean. It’s for the Student Union.””

Sang Haijing nodded. “”I still need to welcome the empress dowager and the king. You can go first.””

“”If Rou-Er does anything wrong in the future, you can help me manage her.””

An Zhan quickly said, “”I don’t dare.””

Sang Hai said with a smile, “”The Military Department needs a young man like you. Your views of right and wrong are correct, and your views of the big picture are good. In the future, your achievements will be limitless.””

After saying that, Sang Haijing walked away quickly. After walking a few steps, he turned around and said, “”If you have time, come over to my place. I have good tea.””

An Xuan bent his body slightly. “”I will definitely go.””

As he watched Sang Haijing leave, An Zhe was somewhat happy.

He was a lovely old man, an old man who was equally right in the right and wrong.

There weren’t many such people in the current Great Yan’s court.

After An Zaiyue returned, he found Skinny Du and the others and waited for the afternoon exam to start.

No one came even after waiting for two hours. Everyone was puzzled.

Not long after, a large group of Imperial Guards rushed in and surrounded all the examinees.

In the distance, the supervising officers of the Martial Arts Academy were patrolling the area one by one, their footsteps urgent.

They watched in wonder, not knowing what had happened.

After another hour, under the Imperial Army’s maintenance of order, the officers of the Martial Academy began to check on the examinees’ identities one by one.

At first, everyone thought that the empress dowager and Duke Yan were coming, so they checked the identities of the examinees one by one for the sake of safety.

But then everyone began to feel that something was wrong, because apparently the Imperial Army was not just keeping order.

All the Imperial Guards drew their sabers and sabers from their scabbards. The archers in the distance were already in position, aiming at the examinees.

Before long, An Zui was brought out by the supervisors into the meeting hall of the Martial Arts Academy.

As soon as they entered, they saw the empress dowager sitting high up on the throne and Duke Yan, Mu Changyan sitting by the side. All of their expressions were grim.

Then he saw a man lying flat on the ground not far away, with a bloody gash in his chest that hadn’t dried yet.

Sang Hai Sutra, Dean of the Martial Arts Academy … died.

Beside the corpse was a black oil-paper umbrella that looked familiar.
