552 Minister Wen
“Mr. Green Vine!”
“Xu Wei!”
There were exclamations at the front of the shop.
At this moment, standing on the side of the main road, the aura on his body was calm. He wore a green robe and had large sleeves. His hair was tied up, and his short beard was neat. He was a handsome middle-aged scholar. If he wasn’t the most elegant Confucianist, who else could it be?
Green Vine, Xu Wei, was the youngest grandmaster of the Confucian Dao and was most likely to become a top figure of the Confucian Dao, but at his peak, he descended into the Great Dao’s confusion.
For a hundred years, who in the Imperial City did not feel that it was a great pity?
The last time this person appeared in public was a hundred years ago.
At that time, Green Vine, Xu Wei, was covered in ink stains and his hair was disheveled. He did not have the bearing of a grandmaster at all.
However, at this moment, the Xu Wei who was just standing in front of the shop could not be looked at directly.
He really exuded the refinement of a Confucian cultivator.
“Green Vine, I haven’t seen you for more than a hundred years…” Qin Suyang, a Confucian Half-Sage, looked at Xu Wei, who was just as elegant as he was back then, and sighed softly.
“Mr. Suyang, it has been a long wait,” Xu Wei cupped his hands and said softly.
It was not clear if this long wait referred to the shop or that he had squandered a hundred years.
Xu Wei slowly walked forward, and the generals on both sides solemnly cupped their hands.
Not only did Green Vine have a scholarly reputation, but he had once led a million troops to destroy a world as a Confucianist. He had strategized and won battles tens of thousands of miles away!
Although he had not been in the army for a long time, there were legends about him in the army!
“Mr. Xu, it has been a long time…” Xiao Lingshan raised his hand and said softly.
Xu Wei let out a long laugh and said, “General Xiao, you’re still as elegant as ever.”
His gaze turned to Han Muye and Mu Wan, and the smile on his face widened.
“You’re the shopkeeper?”
He looked at Han Muye and asked.
He nodded.
“You’re the lady boss?” Xu Wei turned to Mu Wan.
Mu Wan blushed and nodded gently.
Xu Zhi said solemnly, “Which one of you has the final say?”
Han Muye looked at Mu Wan, who happened to turn to look at him.
“What I say outside counts, what she says at home counts,” Han Muye said loudly.
Xu Wei laughed heartily.
“Is this Mr. Green Vine?” Not far away, Daoist Changyun turned to Bao Mingcheng and asked in a low voice.
Although he looked elegant, there didn’t seem to be much elegance in his words.
At this moment, Bao Mingcheng had already calmed down and nodded gently.
“This is Mr. Green Vine.”
His gaze shifted from Xu Wei to Han Muye and then around.
“Sir is easy-going and esteems natural charm.”
The corners of Daoist Changyun’s mouth twitched before he nodded.
What did he mean by ‘esteems natural charm’?
He did not understand, but he had to pretend that he did.
Otherwise, people would think that he was not learned.
“Look, there are Half-Sages, martial grandmasters, and generals in charge of the army here today, but only Mr. Green Vine is making small talk with the shop owner.
“Sages are also humans. They also have emotions and desires.
“Back then, Mr. Green Vine fell into a trance because of love…”
Bao Mingcheng whispered softly. It was unknown if he was talking to Daoist Changyun or himself.
Not far away, a few carriages slowly approached.
Xu Wei turned around and said with a smile, “Your connections are not bad. These people all came.”
With that, he took a step back and stood beside Xiao Lingshan.
Xiao Lingshan nodded with a smile, then looked ahead.
On the other side, the carriage stopped. The old man who got off first was wearing a scholar’s robe and had a long wooden box under his arm.
“Deputy Head, Yan Zhenqing!” Xiao Lingshan exclaimed.
Qin Suyang, who was standing at the door behind Han Muye, looked up and met Yan Zhenqing’s eyes.
Yan Zhenqing grinned.
Han Muye chuckled and nodded.
Old Yan.
Old Yan, who didn’t mind causing trouble in Lu Yuzhou’s courtyard, turned out to be the Half-Sage of Confucianism and the deputy head of the Imperial City Academy. Yan Zhenqing.
Behind him was a solemn-looking Lu Yuzhou in a white robe.
Behind him, Zhang Xu and a few elders in green robes walked over slowly.
Two deputy heads of the Imperial City Academy and several grandmasters of Confucianism had come personally!
Being in the Imperial City, even if one did not know people from the Imperial City Academy, one would have heard of their names!
Half-Sage Yan Zhenqing. His lively calligraphy on a ceremonial tablet could suppress an entire world. It was the foundation of becoming a Sage.
Half-Sage Lu Yuzhou. He entered the Heavenly Mystic World and created the 20 counties of the Heavenly Mystic.
Grandmaster Zhang Xu. His writing was said to have reached the unrestrained and uninhibited stage.
…
At the entrance of the Pill Destiny Pavilion, Zuo Yulong’s body trembled as he clenched his fists in excitement.
The only one who was calm was probably Shao Datian.
He felt that he could defeat most of these old men with one punch.
Among the young men who received the carriages, someone muttered in a low voice and pointed out the identities of people from the Imperial City Academy.
Bao Zhenyu grinned and said, “Fortunately, I didn’t go to the academy. Otherwise, wouldn’t I be kowtowing to death?”
He turned around and saw his uncle glaring at him not far away.
Obviously, his disrespectful expression had angered his uncle.
“Green Vine.”
“Little Xu…”
“Old Xu, you’re not dead yet.”
Xu Wei, who was standing there, stole the limelight from Xiao Lingshan and Han Muye.
It couldn’t be helped. His appearance was more shocking to the Confucianists of the Imperial City Academy than the opening of a small shop.
Lu Yuzhou’s gaze darted between Han Muye and Xu Wei. He grinned, not knowing what to say. In the end, he did not say anything and only handed over a wooden box.
The others also gave gifts.
Han Muye accepted them.
Mu Wan also went along to collect the gifts.
Back then, they had already planned to take advantage of these Confucianists.
