Du Bian said: "Mountain Chief, I want to participate in the competition of the three universities. ”

When Li Wenyu heard this, he said bluntly: "No." ”

Du Bian didn't ask why, but stood in place.

Li Wenyu put down the dishes and chopsticks, drank a cup of tea and said: "First, the five places to participate in the competition of the three universities are full, and no matter who kicks out, it is not in accordance with the rules. ”

The rules of the eunuch party are very big, especially for Li Wenyu, the rules set must be implemented. So if Du Bian really got the countdown in the graduation exam, he would definitely be assigned to clean the toilet for a year and a half, even if he was Li Wenyu's godson.

There are no rules, there are no rules.

"Second, it's only a few days before the three universities competition, and even if you can fly, it's too late. Du Bian said: "The few places set before have been prepared for this big competition for a long time, and I can even tell you that these people have almost given up martial arts and have been specializing in qin, chess, calligraphy and painting for several years." ”

Each school can participate in the big competition by five people, the eunuch students ten years ago dedicated to cultivating piano, chess, calligraphy and painting talents, but still can not compare to those famous children, they began to enlighten from the age of three or four, and there are famous teachers to teach.

Therefore, in order not to lose the last 4,000 acres of school land, Li Wenyu could only spend a huge price to ask Tang Yan, who was born in Guangdong Jieyuan, to transfer to school.

"Third, I don't take the graduation exam for piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I don't want you to waste your time and energy on this. Li Wenyu said solemnly: "It's only been less than five and a half months before the graduation exam, and you can't waste a day of time." ”

Du Yan asked: "Then Tang Yan represents our Eunuch Academy, can he really win?"

Li Wenyu said: "The probability of winning is more than 70%, and the certainty of not losing is 10%. ”

Li Wenyu's every sentence was nailed, he said that if he didn't lose, he would definitely not lose, and he said that if he was 70 percent sure of winning, in fact, there would be 80 percent.

Seeing that Du Bian's face was a little depressed, Li Wenyu rarely showed a smile and said, "Sit." ”

Du Yan hesitated slightly, and sat down in front of Li Wenyu. Then Li Wenyu actually poured him a cup of tea, and Du Bian quickly stood up and held the cup to catch it, which was from his heart, not exactly sycophancy.

"Kid, I know what you're thinking. Du Yan said: "Isn't it just jealous of Tang Yan and worried that he is blocking your way, right? I feel that I am too far behind him in terms of prestige, so I have to find a way to make up for it." ”

Du Yan nodded, there was really no need to hide his little caution in front of the elders.

"Don't worry, it's yours after all. Li Wenyu said: "As long as you can go, I will help you go as far as you can, until you can't help it." You feel that you are too far behind Tang Yan, but in fact, you don't have to think so. That's right, winning the three universities and the big competition this time will greatly enhance Tang Yan's prestige, but the competition for the heir of our eunuch party is a very long process, and it will take ten, twenty, or thirty years. So today's victory or defeat is only a small step in the course of decades of competition. Win or lose, it's small. ”

It is rare for Li Wenyu to speak in such a tone.

"Du Bian, you need to put your whole heart and soul into martial arts and alchemy now, and devote yourself to the graduation exam in more than five months, as long as you can enter the East Factory, you are really a big step ahead of others. Li Wenyu said: "The East Factory is our core strength, a real elite gathering. At that time, it will be the battlefield that truly belongs to you. ”

"Yes, Chief. Du changed his way.

Li Wenyu said: "How have you mastered the basic theory of alchemy?"

Du Bian said: "It will take another three days to master all the basic theories of alchemy." ”

There are a total of five basic theories of alchemy, and Du Bian has mastered one, two, and the remaining three are three days.

"Good. Li Wenyu said: "In the past few days, I have been concentrating on preparing for the martial arts competition of the three universities, and when this matter is over, I will take you to the Guiwang Mansion to visit the master, and let him guide you in martial arts, which will definitely make you advance by leaps and bounds." ”

"Yes. Du Changdao, after hesitating for a moment, he still asked: "Mountain Chief, this three-university competition is very important to you, right?"

"You kid mind this, you care about your own business. Li Wenyu smiled, picked up the chopsticks and continued to eat.

Of course, it is very important, and it is even directly related to the future of Li Wenyu.

He's got a lot of contenders, even though he's pretty good at the moment. But once you lose this competition of the three major academies and lose 1,500 acres of school land, it will really be a loss of prestige within the eunuch party, and it is unlikely that you will want to compete for the governor of Dongchang in the future.

The previous mountain chief was directly assigned to guard the mausoleum and be accompanied by a group of lonely ghosts because he lost the competition of the three universities. Moreover, after the previous mountain chief was assigned, almost no one in the eunuch party rushed to take this position.

In order not to be marginalized by the Guangxi Eunuch Party Academy, and in order to stabilize the power of the Eunuch Party in Guangxi Province, Li Wenyu stood up and took over this hot potato, while others stood on the side and watched the jokes.

For example, Zhang Ruozhu immediately went to sea in advance to lead a delegation to visit the Korean Kingdom to avoid this catastrophe, and after Li Wenyu sat on the head of the Guangxi Eunuch Academy, Zhang Ruozhu came back and sat on the throne of the eunuch in Yangzhou beautifully.

People of high moral character suffer losses, and the eunuch party is no exception. Du Bian has already seen through it, so he will definitely not be that noble fool, he will only wander between good and evil, but this does not prevent him from respecting people like Li Wenyu.

Let's not talk about participating in the big competition, Du Chang said: "Mountain Chief, Bai Chuan is dead." ”

Next, he carefully told Li Wenyu about the process of Bai Chuan's death, and also told him some things about Blood Guanyin, hiding that he knew about private salt in advance. It's just that he made a deal with Blood Guanyin, and Du Cheng treated her for some kind of disease that was very rare but Du Chang knew about it.

Of course, Li Wenyu could see at a glance that Du Bian didn't finish his words, but he didn't care. Everyone has secrets in their hearts, and it is very stupid to ask others to be unreserved.

"Well, got it. Li Wenyu nodded and said, "You wait here, and I'll take you to a place after eating." ”

More than an hour later, Li Wenyu led Du Bian into a certain dungeon in the East Factory of Guilin Mansion.

There are dozens of people imprisoned here, all of whom are suspected of framing Du Bian with Bai Chuan, and the highest identity is Cui Pengyuan, a child of the Cui family, who is in charge of a salt number.

"Except for Cui Pengyuan, kill them all. Li Wenyu ordered.

Immediately, several Dongchang warriors entered the cell, drew their scimitars and began to kill.

"Spare your life, spare me......"

"Shopkeeper, save me, save me......"

With the knife in hand, dozens of members of the Cui family were all killed, and the cell was quiet in a moment.

Immediately afterwards, Cui Peng was escorted out, his face was pale but his expression was not very flustered, because several forces struggled to fight, but most of them killed subordinates. Including the last time Li Wenyu directed and acted in the assassination case, he killed more than 100 people of the Cui family, but he did not kill any of the people of the Cui family, this is an unspoken rule, unless the skin is completely torn, he will not do anything to the core personnel of the other party.

"Master Li, if there are any conditions, the head of the family will definitely agree. Cui Pengyuan said: "My business is very busy, I can't delay any longer, I need to go out immediately." ”

Li Wenyu said: "Colluding with Bai Chuan and using 1,800 stones of private salt in exchange for Blood Guanyin to kill Du Bian, you handled it, right?"

Cui Pengyuan said: "What are you talking about? I really don't know, I thought you arrested us because of the matter of private salt." ”

"Hehe......" Li Wenyu didn't ask anymore, and said to Du Bian: "Go, kill him, and end this matter." ”

Du Chang was stunned, but he still took the sharp dagger and came to Cui Pengyuan, this is a man who is about to be thirty years old, with a strong body but no lack of Sven breath, and his whole body is full of wealth, a typical child of a big family.

Cui Peng saw it and forced himself to laugh and said: "Lord Li, don't make this kind of joke, everyone is so familiar, you don't need to blackmail us." ”

Li Wenyu said: "It's not blackmail, it's really trying to kill you." ”

Cui Pengyuan's face changed and said: "For the sake of a little eunuch from the Eunuch Academy? He is destined to be a wasteless waste, and you completely tear your face for him and my Cui family? What do you let the head of the family think? What do you make the third uncle think?"

Cui Yan, the third brother of the head of the Cui family, officially worships the prefect of Yangzhou.

Li Wenyu waved his hand.

Du Bian's dagger pierced directly into Cui Pengyuan's heart, and after a convulsion, the other party fell directly to the ground and died, even if he died, he could hardly believe his eyes, Li Wenyu would kill him for the sake of Du Bian, a little eunuch.

Li Wenyu took the dagger in Du Bian's hand, personally cut off Cui Pengyuan's head, handed it to a Dongchang warrior beside him, and said: "Go, send these heads to the Cui family, and tell them that Du Bian is my righteous son, and if anyone dares to fight him again, I will attack the Cui family's sister-in-law." ”

"Yes. "That Tosho bushido.

From now on, the Cui family will basically not change hands on Du again, the cost is too great.

"Let's go, I'm back. Li Wenyu changed his way towards Du, and then the two left the prison in Dongchang.

"Tomorrow's Qixi Festival, are you going home?" Li Wenyu said.

......

Note: The Qixi Festival in the book is coming, and the time for Dong Yong and the Seven Fairies to have a shot a year is coming, but this year, the magpie is not enough to build a bridge, and I want to fold thousands of paper cranes to send to Dong Yong.
