Transmigrate to be an Ancient Saint - C334 Unexplained hostility

Because they had to wait for the milk to warm up and condense their skin, Xiao Wen and the others left the kitchen and returned to sit outside.

Just then, Xiao Wen suddenly remembered that he did not know the name of this junior brother.

Thus, he turned around and asked for his name.

The owner did not get angry when he heard Xiao Wen asking for his name at this time.

After all, they had only met by chance. If both sides did not have a relationship with each other, Xiao Wen probably would not even plan to understand his identity.

Now, Xiao Wen had asked for his name purely because he was the same as him, part of a common clan.

Therefore, he cupped his hands together and said to Xiao Wen: “Reporting to Senior Brother, my surname is Bi, and my name is Fu. Mister wrote a word for me to save it. ”

Bi Cheng?

Xiao Wen had no impression of this name. However, when he looked up the information, he found that he really did exist in the annals of history.

The Bi Cheng in history was actually the grandson of the Yellow Gate Supervisor. Bi Xu, his younger brother, gave birth to Bi Ling, and Bi Ling gave birth to Bi Yun, who had no official position for generations and was engaged in salt price business.

Just that, not long after Bi Yun was born, he passed away. And Bi Cheng, had passed his childhood, without a father.

Bi Cheng was a very hardworking person when he was young. Bi Cheng burned firewood at night and read books.’s mother pitied him for reading so she took away the torch and let him sleep. Bi Cheng refused to rest, so he was able to read history books and was good at poetry.

Of course, as long as the world worked hard to survive, people would discover that there was no lack of hardworking people in the world.

In the year of Tai He, Bi Cheng had passed the examination and entered Du Jing’s Mu Manor to serve as his assistant. At first, Li Deyu and Du Jing were in cahoots with each other, so the imperial court let Du Jing take over the post of Jiannan Dong Chuan.

Amongst the old officials, only Bi Cheng was the only one who asked Du Jing about it as usual and bid him farewell.

Bi Cheng had accumulated merits and was promoted to the position of Minister for Driving and Minister for Barracks.

According to the precedents, those families who obviously wanted to have power would treat being an official or driving a car as a humiliation. However, Bi Cheng was as zealous as an official who lived in a high position and did not say anything else.

The chancellor understood him and summoned him to be a maester at the Han Lin Institute.

The Party members had disturbed the west of the river, and Xuanzong had once asked him to talk about some matters. With Bi Cheng helping the ancient times, the strategy of defeating the Qiang people was very detailed and detailed. Emperor Xuan Zong said happily: “I will choose a capable general, who said that people like Li-Bao and Li Mu can only stay in my palace? You can go to war for me! ”

Bi Cheng only replied, the Emperor immediately allowed him to be the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice, becoming a mediator for the He Xi army. When Bi Cheng entered the army, he sent officials to pacify the people of Qiang so that they would understand the benefits and disadvantages.

At that time, the garrison troops were often troubled with the allocation of food. Bi Cheng had recruited soldiers to settle the land and gather three hundred thousand Dendrobians of grain every year. HeDong was even closer to Hu Dian, Bi Cheng reconstructed the seventy beacons in his head, being careful to guard against the enemy, the thieves did not dare to enter.

The Yi sect took their place and summoned him to serve as Minister of Revenue.

Not long after, as Minister of Rites, he also served as a student in the same school.

After two years of mourning, he insisted that he was ill. He had been transferred to the Military Office, where he had been stripped of his official position.

Not long after that, he was also in charge of managing the affairs of the river. At the time of his death, he was sixty-two years old. Bi Cheng was especially good at taking charge. Since he had already shown himself to be rich, the salary he received was used to maintain the poverty of his clan without a break.

In the beginning, Bi Cheng was known to Emperor Xuan Zong. The Emperor had agreed to let him be the Prime Minister. Linghu Xian hated Bi Cheng, he couldn’t return back to the capital after being sent three times.

Bi Cheng tried to think of a way to make friends with Linghu Si. He would go to Taiyuan and find some beautiful girls to present to him. Linghu Mu said, “Tai Yuan and I don’t have any good fortune, so using a beauty as bait would ruin my family.” He refused to accept it.

Overall, Bi Cheng was a person with ability. If he had enough backing, he could indeed become the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty. However, he was of grassroots origin and did not have much support. As a result, he could only be subservient to others.

“If such a talent grew up in the Song Dynasty, he would have easily reached great heights!”

Xiao Wen thought.

He did not find it strange that this Confucian scholar, who had originally been able to leave his name behind, would become a disciple of a school of thought.

After all, the Bi Cheng in history was the son of the salt merchant. Xiao Wen didn’t feel that there was anything strange about a salt merchant’s child abandoning Confucianism to be carried around.

After all, the existence of Lv Buwei, the biggest academic leader of the small clans, had already expressed the mercantilist spirit of the small clans.

The children of merchants would definitely be attracted to this kind of mercantilism.

Just then, Xiao Wen suddenly saw a few Confucian Scholars wearing robes, holding onto their treasure swords, suddenly walk in.

Instead of sitting down, they stood in the middle of the road, looking arrogant and bespectacled.

He was, after all, the owner of the inn. Seeing these Spirit Cultivators, Bi Cheng said goodbye to Xiao Wen, then left his side, and came to the front of the group of Spirit Cultivators.

“Please sit.” What would you like to eat? This is the best dessert shop in the entire East City. Even if the nobles and old masters come over to eat, it will be fine. ”

With that, he extended his hand and made a gesture of invitation to the other scholars.

However, the other scholars looked at him and then turned their eyes back to their foreheads. None of them went forward to act, but one of the people who was in the lead opened his mouth. “You are Bi Cheng?”

“I am Bi Cheng. Is everyone here for me? ” Hearing that, Bi Cheng was startled. Immediately, he could sense that the other party seemed to have some malicious intent towards him. In an instant, his expression became solemn and cautious.

At the same time, Bi Cheng was not the only one who noticed the bad intentions of the group of Confucian Scholars, Xiao Wen and the others at the side also noticed the bad intentions of the other Confucian Scholars.

Xiao Wen squinted his eyes, using a slight expression on his face, he sized up the group of Confucian Scholars. But this time, his technique was purposeful – he only wanted to find the answer to three questions from these guys.

Firstly, who were these people?

Second, what were they doing here?

Third, why did they do it?

Very quickly, Xiao Wen came up with a preliminary answer. He saw that the clothes worn by these scholars had the logo of a nearby academy. Although Xiao Wen had just arrived at the Tang Kingdom and didn’t know who opened this academy, he knew that if he had the intention to investigate, it wouldn’t be hard for him to find out which academy this symbol belonged to.

However, Xiao Wen noticed that the clothes of the Spirit Cultivators had a strange old-fashioned feeling that they had not worn for a long time. He quickly came to the conclusion through some specialized textile and chemical books — these clothes were something from a long time ago, but they were not worn often. Clearly, this did not make sense.

Xiao Wen thought that these guys were most likely here in disguise as the people from the Academy to cause trouble. And their goal was to blame the things they had to do today on the academy represented by the emblem.

However, who would go to so much trouble to find a sweet shop owner, a student in the wild?

That’s not necessary!

Suddenly, Xiao Wen felt a chill down his spine. He instantly thought that maybe these people were not here to cause trouble for Bi Cheng, but were instead here to cause trouble for him.

Very quickly, he received further corroboration — it was the sword hanging from the waist of these Confucian Scholars.

In fact, ancient scholars usually wore treasured swords to protect themselves. In the pre-Qin period, scholars still had the tradition of failing their academic debate and directly drawing their swords and cutting them down.

And the poem “every ten steps to kill, every thousand miles left without a trace” by the poet Li Bai was exaggerated. But Li Bai was not a weak scholar.

It was precisely because scholars had such a style back then that Li Bai’s poem, which was filled with killing intent, could be widely spread.

Even in the Ming Dynasty, where the martial arts style had gradually faded, there would still be some scholars who chose to roam the world after becoming an Elementary Scholar. And the government will allow them to wear a sword with no edge.

This thing had very low lethality, but it could still be used for self-defense.

In any case, to a scholar, swords were of little practical value. To them, wearing a sword was like pursuing ceremony and decoration.

Just like Sun Shangxiang, who would be willing to spend a thousand gold to buy a dagger inlaid with a gem.

However, Xiao Wen realized that what the Confucian Scholars in front of him were not gorgeous decorations, but actually not some useless swords.

Their swords were simple and very simple. But how could Xiao Wen not understand, their swords could kill!
