360. Chapter 357: College Hire
Tianyue Royal City, the Snow White Palace in the depths of the Imperial Palace, the queen's dormitory in the past, the cold palace in the apse now, and the dilapidated façade are the final destination of light......
Dongfang Xue'er was lying on a desk, and there was a stack of books on the law of light in the corner of the table, which was the amount of this month, a total of 50,000 copies, and after the end of the second half of the month, there would be a eunuch to take it away.

On the other side of the corner, there was a bag, before Dongfang Xue'er left Yamato City, Dongfang Fan personally handed it to her, at this time, the bag had been opened, but the note inside was nowhere to be seen - Dongfang Xue'er couldn't remember when she opened this bag, but she couldn't forget a word of what was written on the note.
"Brother......" Dongfang Xue'er looked at the bag and looked at it with a fascination, and the title in her mouth could no longer identify which person she was calling, and she couldn't even tell who was true and who was false, who was right and who was wrong.
There was no trace of blood on his pale face, his blurry eyes gradually lost the ability to distinguish what was in front of him, and the cold air around him oppressed the most innocent victims, ruthless, speechless, unintentional, and unintentional......
……
Dongfang Fan's first month in the royal capital has passed, and he is usually a simple person, except for being occasionally harassed by the promise of pestering him to learn swordsmanship, he has rarely had any contact with outsiders, however, he is already well-known in the Eastern District, and together with the famous is the "Sword Blacksmith Shop" where he is located.
The blacksmith shop of the sword has a special business style, only selling "swords" here, and with the promise of this best sales endorsement, the people of the royal capital have a lot of interest in the "new weapon" of the sword, and there are other blacksmith shops that imitate the creation of "swords", but they cannot surpass the origin of the sword smithy in terms of craftsmanship.
Many blacksmiths came to the blacksmith shop of the sword to seek a teacher, Dongfang Fan did not hide anything, let all the blacksmiths who came to seek a teacher visit the whole process of their own sword-casting, many civilian blacksmiths were moved by its generosity, and immediately organized into a relatively large blacksmith guild, and elected Dongfang Fan as the president of the guild, of course, Dongfang Fan's name is still "Mr. Dongfang", otherwise with his real name in the royal capital, it will inevitably attract the attention of the dynasty.
In the face of the eager invitation of the blacksmiths, Dongfang Fan had no choice but to agree - in this way, the blacksmiths raised funds to build a blacksmith guild in the center of the royal capital, and the rise of this guild once again set off a boom in traditional casting.
Although the skill of forging swords is no longer a secret, the swords forged by Dongfang Fan are still fundamentally more perfect and exquisite than other blacksmiths, and the natural atmosphere of the sword body makes people recognize the difference between swords and swords at first glance.
Because of this, many imperial officials and nobles will spend a lot of money to invite Dongfang Fan to forge swords for them, but Dongfang Fan may not necessarily accept the invitation.
In this way, half a year passed, during which the dynasty also recruited Dongfang Fan to enter the court as an official, but was politely rejected by the party on the grounds of "incompetent and dedicated to forging swords", and this made the blacksmiths of the blacksmith guild feel the indomitable spirit of the blacksmith even more: after all, how many people in the world can be indifferent to the rights of the dynasty?
At the same time, the name of "Mr. Dongfang" began to enjoy a considerable reputation in the royal capital, but there were very few people who had really seen him, and although Dongfang Fan sat high as the president of the blacksmith guild, he did not expand and renovate the blacksmith shop of the sword.
On this day, a high-ranking official of the dynasty came to the sword smithy shop, accompanied by a person who was not a stranger to Dongfang Fan - Jin Feng, the deputy general of the Golden Dragon Army.
As for that high-ranking official, speaking of which, it was not the first time that Dongfang Fan had seen him: Xu Peng, Xu Promise's father, the diplomatic chief of the Tianyue Dynasty, once invited the latter to a banquet at Xu's house in order to thank Dongfang Fan for giving him a sword.
"Mr. Dongfang, I didn't expect that it has been half a year since we last met, and I wanted to visit as soon as possible, but because the Golden Dragon Army was busy with military affairs, I couldn't get out, please forgive me." As soon as Jin Feng saw Dongfang Fan, he immediately greeted him with a smile, his respect for Dongfang Fan did not come from the name of Dongfang Fan's current blacksmith guild president, but because of the amazing strength he had seen on the subway.
"It's just a trivial matter, and General Jin doesn't need to worry about it...... However, Lord Xu came to the house with General Jin this time, and I don't think it was for personal matters...... If it was the last time, he would not be exempted, and the contemptible people really had no intention of powering the government...... "The last thing that Dongfang Fan said was the matter of the dynasty recruiting him to become an official, and it was Xu Peng who came to recruit him at that time.
"Hehe, Mr. Dongfang has misunderstood, here's the thing, in the near future, the invasion of strange ghosts in the edge cities is getting more and more serious, and the middle and upper level of the royal capital are basically on the expedition, which has caused a shortage of teachers in the Royal Academy, and I learned from Vice General Jin Feng that Mr. Dongfang also has a considerable degree of force, so I want to invite you to teach in the academy, Nuo'er also highly recommended you when she heard the news, saying that the swordsmanship she is using now is what she learned from you......" Xu Peng smiled, this person has a gentle personality, He never demonstrated with an official position, and, from the introduction of the promise and the few times he got along in the past six months, he knew that Dongfang Fan, a young man, was a straight man who was not arrogant, and he admired him very much.
"Huh? Teach? Dongfang Fan hesitated.
"Yes, I came here this time to invite you to accept the employment of the Tianyue Royal Academy, I hope you can teach the students of the academy as a martial arts teacher, the imperial dynasty will use the highest salary as the bride price, and only require you to open fifteen classes every month, and the time of the class is decided by you, this kind of treatment can be said to be unprecedented in the academy." Xu Peng believes that under such conditions, no one can refuse.
After Dongfang Fan heard this, he had two worries in his heart: First, the imperial dynasty would only offer him such superior hiring conditions, could it be that someone in the imperial dynasty had already recognized his identity? Second, Yue Chongsheng was originally his student, but at the most critical time, it was this most trusted student who betrayed him, with such a precedent, can he still be a teacher?
"I'm sorry, but I beg your pardon for not being able to take over this position." Dongfang Fan shook his head and refused, which made Xu Peng stunned for a while.
"Why? I can't figure out any reason why you should refuse ......"
"Because people like me are not qualified to be teachers who teach others...... Sorry, I missed ......" Dongfang Fan returned to the casting room after speaking......
Late at night, Ma Fan came to the casting room, and Dongfang Fan was not forging anything at this time, but sat on the edge of the casting table, rarely in a daze.
"You say...... Why do I feel happy when I'm in Dongying...... Why did I start to feel depressed, heavy, and sad as soon as I returned to this land? Is my heart left in Dongying? Dongfang Fan naturally sensed that someone had come in, and asked solemnly.
"You are a guest in Dongying, and you are a guest, and you don't feel happy, but there is no one or anything there that can affect your sorrow...... And now, we are on top of our homeland, so we will be depressed because the prosperity of our homeland is no longer prosperous, we will be heavy because of the distress of the deceased, and we will be sad because of the repetition of the story, all because your heart is moving...... It's like my heart...... also moved......" Ma Fan's firm eyes were fixed on Dongfang Fan, obviously more impatient than when he was in Dongying.
"Well said...... I couldn't help but applaud when I said that...... But my answer is still the same - no. Dongfang Fan stood up, looked at Ma Fan, and replied without question.
"You're lying to me...... You've been lying to me all along! From the very beginning when they took me to Toei, they didn't tell me about the whereabouts and situation of my grandparents...... Now back here, I already know who killed my grandmother and why didn't I kill him?!! You keep saying you can't be impulsive...... I kept saying that the time had not yet come...... Actually, you're lying to me! You have no intention of helping me get revenge!! Ma Fan shouted and cried, she knew that Dongfang Fan was not to blame for all this, but she could only find Dongfang Fan as the object of catharsis.
After Ma Fan inherited the Ghost Pupil, he already had a complete understanding of Ma Chengyun's affairs, and when he was in Dongying, across the huge ocean, even if he had murderous intent in his heart, he couldn't attack.
In the past six months since entering the Tianyue Royal Capital, Ma Fan has talked to Dongfang Fan more than once, and the content is the idea of assassinating Yue Chongsheng, but each time Dongfang Fan rejected and vetoed it.
Ma Fan's parents were gone when she was born, grandparents were everything to her, and now, there is only one relative left of Ma Chengyun, whether it is to rescue Ma Chengyun from the sea of suffering, or to avenge his grandmother, Ma Fan can't wait to kill Yue Chongsheng and hurry up!
"You can't kill him now...... Even if it's me...... I don't dare to say that I am 90% sure...... If you can't bear it, you will end up in impatience and self-destruction...... Doing what you have to do in the moment is the most important thing for you...... Like now, I can only forge a sword of revenge for you...... Instead of accepting your ridiculous ideas...... Dongfang Fan was not shaken by Ma Fan's words.
"I will take the invitation of the Imperial Capital student and go to the academy as a tutor, if you want, accompany me there...... Perhaps, you can gather more information you want, as well as ...... The opportunity to contact Yue Chongsheng...... "After Dongfang Fan finished speaking, he started forging again, while Ma Fan sat in the corner, recalling the past in the sound of iron......
……
In the Tianyue Imperial Palace, the eldest prince Yue Tianjiao, who had been sleeping for half a year, finally woke up - half a year ago, the three princes disappeared, and finally on the third day, they were found fainting on the periphery of the old site of Tianya, and after that, the three princes have been sleeping until today, first the eldest prince woke up, and within half an hour, the other two princes also woke up one after another.
The next day, Dongfang Fan stood neatly at the door of the Royal Academy, followed by a sword boy holding a sword, it was Ma Fan.
