Ji Ning's confession to Mi Zhirong can be regarded as an explanation of himself, and he doesn't want to leave any regrets for himself.

As for whether this will have any impact on his face, he doesn't care, compared to the jade man in front of him, he feels that he has not done enough, he hopes that he can get Mi Zhirong's favor, as for what Mi Zhirong's final choice is, it is not what he cares about now, he has a lot to do, and the most important step at the moment is to find Shen Kang for a showdown.

Ji Ning didn't want to continue this kind of life in front of him, he wanted to protect Zhao Yuanrong and all the women around him, and even Qin Yuanyuan, who owed him emotionally, didn't want to give up.

In his eyes, any woman he admires needs to be protected by himself, which is his motto.

When Ji Ning walked out of the small courtyard, he didn't see Shen Kang, it was obvious that Shen Kang had gone back, but there were several people in the Temple of Literature standing there, and when they saw Ji Ning coming out, one of them came over and said, "Scholar Ji, congratulations on your promotion, I don't know what you want now?" ”

Ji Ning said: "I want to see Scholar Shen!" ”

"You want to see Scholar Shen?" A few people were still a little surprised, "Do you have anything to talk about with Scholar Shen before?" ”

Ji Ning nodded and said, "Help spread the word, just say that I have something very important, and now I have to see his old man!" If he refuses to give it, perhaps...... My future in the Temple of Literature ends here! ”

Several people looked embarrassed, they didn't know what Ji Ning meant when he said this, but they still hurried to spread the word.

Ji Ning stayed at the door alone, and after waiting for half an hour, the person who had gone to the communication before came back, and brought back a carriage by the way, and the man said: "Scholar Ji, if you are going to see Scholar Shen now, please get into the carriage." ”

Ji Ning got into the carriage and traveled on the carriage for more than half an hour before arriving at the destination, but it was a place like a manor, Ji Ning entered it, but saw that Shen Kang was playing chess in the pavilion against the chess game, and there were two cups on the stone table, it should have been a guest before, Ji Ning didn't know if the guest's departure had anything to do with his arrival.

"Master!" Ji Ning walked over and said.

Shen Kang glanced up at Ji Ning and said, "Yongning, you sent someone to communicate with the old man and say that you want to leave the Temple of Literature?" What exactly do you mean? ”

Ji Ning saluted respectfully and said: "The student may be about to disappoint the teacher, the student thinks that he may not be suitable to stay in the Temple of Literature, the student's desire is just to be a person who is idle and wild, no matter what he does, he can do whatever he wants, instead of being like now, no matter what he does, he will be constrained by others, and the student hopes to live some ordinary life...... Therefore, if you want to leave the Temple of Literature, from now on, you can no longer ask about the affairs of the court and the Temple of Literature. ”

Shen Kang looked at Ji Ning, and after a while, he shook his head with a little disappointment and said, "You are not very old, why do you have such negative thoughts?" ”

Ji Ning said: "Whether it is negative or not, the students themselves have no way to evaluate, but please forgive the teacher, the student hopes to leave the Temple of Literature, and also ask the teacher to help pass on the seniors in the Temple of Literature." ”

"It's so disappointing that you're doing this, you'd better think about it!" Shen Kang seemed to be angry, and his tone of voice towards Ji Ning also changed a little.

Ji Ning shook his head and said: "Maybe in the eyes of the master, the student is indeed wrong to do this, but for the student himself, only by doing so, can he achieve the detachment of the mind, with the student's age, even if he stays in the Temple of Literature, it is impossible to have great attainments, and the student does not plan to enter the court, but just wants to help the empress solve the troubles in front of her, and from then on she will be hidden in the mountains and forests, as for what the master has in the future, you can also come to the student, and the student can also be an idle cloud and wild crane!" ”

Shen Kang was a little silent for a while, and he seemed to be thinking about why Ji Ning made a decision.

After a while, he raised his head and looked at Ji Ning and said, "You really decided?" ”

"Yes!" Ji Ning nodded, "This is the most true idea of the student, the student will not make changes, if the master can be fulfilled, then the student will be impressed." ”

"What if the old man doesn't agree?" Shen Kang asked sharply.

Ji Ning smiled bitterly and said, "Could it be that Shigong will still be difficult in this matter?" ”

Shen Kang sighed: "Yongning, do you know how many years it took the Temple of Literature to produce an unborn genius like you? Do you know how much we old guys expect from you? As a result, if you don't agree, you can waste all your previous efforts, don't you feel that you have done too much? From now on, the Temple of Literature will also have one less talent, and the Temple of Literature may also fall into decline in the future, all of which will be your fault! ”

When Ji Ning heard that Shen Kang wanted to forcibly keep him with a certain sense of responsibility, he knew that Shen Kang should not agree to him leaving the Temple of Literature so easily.

But he still insisted and said: "If the master does not agree, the student will have nothing to say, but from now on, the student will not ask about any matter about the Confucian Temple...... Unless the master can do it! ”

"You!" Shen Kang saw that Ji Ning's mood had changed so much, so he knew that it was some house arrest measures against Ji Ning before, and now he used the people around Ji Ning as a threat, which angered Ji Ning, and he said, "You better go back and think about it first!" ”

Ji Ning saluted respectfully and said: "Master, please allow the student to call you like this one last time, if you don't agree, then if you meet again in the future, the student will not be so respectful to you, and will treat you as the enemy!" ”

"What are you talking about! Do you say it again!? Shen Kang was also angry, and it was obvious that Ji Ning's actions were a little disrespectful.

But Ji Ning stood there, not frightened by Shen Kang at all, the two looked at each other for a long time, and Shen Kang said sharply: "In this way, you have to leave the Temple of Literature, right?" ”

"Yes!" Ji Ning said, "Even if I come back, maybe it will be a few decades later, and if the Temple of Literature still needs students, students may consider ......."

"Hmph, you really think of yourself as indispensable, did the Temple of Literature still need you at that time? Do you need to use this attitude to talk to the old man? Well, you go back first, the old man has discussed with those people first, if they agree to let you go, the old man will naturally let you go! Shen Kang said.

Ji Ning saluted and said: "I don't know whether the people in the temple are allowed to go, from now on, the students are no longer in the Temple of Literature, master, please take care of yourself!" The student is gone! ”

After speaking, Ji Ning had a momentum of not looking back, and without waiting for Shen Kang to say something, he turned around and left directly.
