"General Hua, please convey my message to Wang Jinglu, I look forward to seeing him in Chang'an."

"You have to understand, I can't leave Chang'an freely now."

Prince Longqing retracted his gaze, looked into Hua's eyes indifferently, and then said, "If he can't arrive on time, then I won't have a chance to change his name."

Staring at those calm and expressionless eyes, Hua Chunying trembled in her heart and decided to hold back what she wanted to say. In the eyes of the prince, he saw not the anger when he was challenged, but the calmness and confidence he had as before.

Everyone present understood what he meant: if Wang Jinglu didn't arrive on time, he wouldn't have a chance to change his name, not because he couldn't beat Wang, and not because he thought he would lose, but because he ......

He firmly believes that he will enter the realm of knowing the destiny of heaven in the near future, and if he fights the king at that time, the latter will still be able to retain the title of "invincible before knowing the destiny of heaven". That sense of certainty of entering the realm of the Mandate of Heaven, and the subtle disappointment that he might not be able to defeat Wang Jingyue...... It's a kind of confidence and composure that requires unimaginable experience, tenacity, and strength in life.

Seeing that everyone present was moved by a prince of the Yan Kingdom and an enemy of the law system, Li Yu's expression was obviously displeased, and he slowly frowned. Thinking of the old people in the Imperial Central Mansion, and thinking of all the young and strong people who have gradually emerged in neighboring countries in the past few years, she felt quite helpless.

For centuries, the Tang Dynasty was a powerful empire with unrivaled military might. Still, without the intervention of the people behind the academy, it would have been difficult to find a person to fight against external enemies on a personal level. Needless to say, this situation is completely unfortunate.

She glanced at the academy disciples present and thought angrily, if you are really a cultivation genius that Master Lu Qingchen has placed such high hopes on, I don't have to go through such an embarrassing situation to see my dignity challenged by this prince! - Immersed in her thoughts, she still couldn't find Ning Que in the crowd, which made her even more frustrated.

...

...

In the alley next to Shengli Mansion, Ning Que stood beside the carriage, waved his hand impatiently to Sang Sang, and said, "Hurry up!" Aren't you making a fuss at home and want to see Prince Longqing up close?

Sang Sang continued to explain with a serious face: "Young Master, I only mentioned it once, and I never made a fuss.

Ning Que spread out his palms and said, "Okay, do you want to see him?"

After receiving an affirmative response, Ning Que took Sangsang to the Victory Mansion, feeling a little sore because he had to pay the attendant a piece of silver. Then they walked through the terrace, which was no longer noisy, and approached the nice and quiet house. He thought to himself that if Sangsang wanted to see him, then he would take her to meet him. He is already familiar with Li Yu now, and there should be no problem anyway.

Growing up together since childhood and relying on each other for so long, the two have developed a habit of always staring at what each other likes and saving money for each other, such as omelet noodles or sour and spicy noodles, such as Lu Xue, or money, or even a prince.

In the quiet courtyard, everyone's attention was focused on the debate just now, and then they were moved by the strong confidence in Prince Longqing's calm words, so that no one noticed how Ning Que brought Sang Sang in.

As the music played, the people whispered, and Priest Mori sat there arrogantly as the main guest, while Zeng Jing was expressionless. The atmosphere began to get tense.

Xie Chengyun stared at his cup, suddenly shook his head and smiled. He took a deep breath and quickly stood up. He greeted Prince Longqing and said to him, "Please be enlightened."

The courtyard fell silent for a moment, and the instruments stopped playing in the background. Li Yu looked at Xie who was standing there solemnly, and had some respect and appreciation for him. But she couldn't help but be a little disappointed, because she remembered that he was not a Tang relative.

Half-kneeling on the ground, Prince Longqing sorted out his clothes, looked directly into Xie Chengyun's eyes, and finally showed a serious expression for the first time tonight, and said, "Brother Xie, after you."

...

...

In the corner of the courtyard.

Sang Sang half-knelt behind Ning Que, cautiously glanced ahead, and then whispered in disappointment: "Young Master, we are too far away, even farther away than on the street a few days ago, I can't even see his face clearly."

"Shhhh Don't interrupt," Ning Que said as he chewed on the pickled fish skin, "Didn't you see that the show was about to start?" This is a rare opportunity to witness a debate between two great intellectuals!

Sangsang, apparently not knowing what this debate was, continued to peek in amazement and asked, "Then who do you think will win?"

Ning Que took a sip and shook his head, "I just hope that Xie Chengyun won't lose too badly."

The topic of the debate was talked about by Senior Secretary Zeng Jing, and at the beginning, Mr. Xie, who was invincible in the debate in the college, realized what an unshakable mountain he had to face.

After sorting himself out, Prince Long Qing began to debate with a majestic face, not because he was afraid of his opponent, but because he respected the exchange of wisdom in the debate, and at the same time, to a certain extent, he also reflected his appreciation for Mr. Xie's courage. However, when the debate began, he showed no mercy and direct the level of truth.

Countless words flew out of Prince Longqing's mouth, as if they were delicate lotus flowers. The myriad classics of the former sages are skillfully quoted and organized by him, while incorporating them into the theme, and then turning them into a complex and clear network. It took these listeners a long time to think about what they meant. What shocked the students even more was that Prince Longqing did not use the classics of Xishan Haotian Taoism, but only quoted the views of the classics of the academy!

As Ning Que had judged, in the face of Prince Longqing's emotionless argument, Xie Chengyun could only give a few rebuttals, and soon after, he was trapped in the sea of those literal lotuses, there were no mistakes, and there was no place for intensibility. All he can do is wait helplessly for the network to become more and more intense, and there is no way to fight back.

Ning Que is not good at seeking truth by citing classic books for debate, and he will not like it. From the age of four, realizing that the math problems solved in the Math Olympiad class were useless to his begging career, he firmly set himself a standard of living: no matter how wonderful an idea or idea may be, if it does not help him fight or earn food, it is meaningless to his life and not worth further study.

Well.. Calligraphy is an exception because he likes it.

In short, he doesn't like debate, so he can't form a good impression of Xie Chengyun. As someone who had been ignored by the academy for half a year, it was difficult for him to have any sense of collective honor, but he also didn't want to see that prince, who could remain devastatingly handsome, poker-faced, and continue to be so arrogant. So, he and Sangsang, who were also unable to understand the debate, hid in a dim corner, no matter what was happening around them, enjoying wine and vegetable dishes, waiting for the debate to end.

"The dean of the academy once said when the disciples gathered: If a person's behavior can remain unchanged for three years, then it can be called Tao."

Finally, Prince Long Qing ended his speech with the views expressed in an article by the dean of the academy 30 years ago, and at the same time ended this one-sided debate.

There was silence in the courtyard. All the students looked at the indifferent prince speechlessly, not knowing what to say. Even those female students, including Situ Yilan and Jin Wucai, were so shocked that their backs were slightly wet. Such a thoughtful and rigorous debating person is really terrifying, not to mention that he is quoting all the classics of the academy. Moreover, he even used the doctrine of the dean of the academy to conclude that how could they shamelessly continue to make trouble without incident?

At this time, the people in the courtyard finally understood why Prince Longqing, although he looked handsome and quiet, had a gentle demeanor, and did not say a word, gave people a sense of pride and indifference. His arrogance is not to blame. The problem is that others naturally feel inferior when faced with his powerful abilities. Then, gradually, the prince got used to this way of dealing with people, and as a result, it didn't take much to become an excellent person.
