"..."
Zhong Zi was stunned for a moment when he saw the fake Deng Bin walking swaggering towards him.
His eyelids twitched.
I thought to myself... could this be true again?
Zhong Zizheng was very confused and finally decided not to interfere in the matter and just take people to see the teacher.
'As expected, I am only suitable for reciting poems and composing poems, reading and practicing, killing demons and defending the Tao. These worldly things... are too complicated! '
Zhong Zi was shaking his head and sighing.
soon.
Deng Bin came to Zhong Zizheng, clasped his fists and saluted, "Master Zhong, the Holy Son, who are you waiting for so late?"
"Wait for you!"
Zhong Zi said expressionlessly: "You are so courageous, you dare to pretend to be the dean of Taishan Academy who left two Mingfu poems!"
"oh?"
Deng Bin looked stunned and said, "Am I pretending?"
He was silent, then shook his head, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It seems that the Holy Court misunderstood me deeply."
"Misunderstand?"
Zhong Zizheng didn't say much, he suddenly wasn't sure anymore.
Because Deng Bin... doesn't count as running away!
Zhong Zizheng said seriously: "You don't need to say anything to me, you will know after you go see the Holy Master!"
"good!"
Deng Bin nodded calmly and followed Zhong Zizheng to the Star Observation Tower.
In the Holy Courtyard.
Many scholars from the Holy Academy were curious about Deng Bin's identity and started talking about it.
After all, the way Deng Bin walks is so... how should I put it? It's just very stylish.
It was like a big shot coming in person.
The Holy Son Zhong Zizheng is like a doorman leading the way.
"He seems to be the dean of Taishan Academy!" Someone recognized Deng Bin's identity.
"What? The dean of Taishan Academy who wrote two Mingfu poems? This is too young!"
Someone made a sound in surprise.
"Don't think too much. This person is a fake. His two disciples were tricked and deceived because of this and were sent to the Yamen!"
Someone who knew the inside story sneered.
"Is there still this matter?"
"Let's go and take a look."
"It would be great if he were the real dean of Taishan Academy. Then I could ask him for advice on poetry."
Many literati and bachelors joined in.
There's nothing much to do at night anyway, so it's great to join in the fun.
…
Outside the Star Observation Tower.
Deng Bin followed Zhong Zizheng to this place. He looked calm and behaved calmly.
'This is the place of cultivation of the Holy Lord, the Star Observation Tower? It is said that the Holy Lord can monitor the scholars in the world through this building... But now it seems that his monitoring is not thorough enough! '
Deng Bin thought so in his heart.
Zhong Zi was bringing the person back and said, "Teacher, the disciple has already brought the person!"
"Stay back!"
Kong Zhongzi's voice sounded.
The next moment, Deng Bin was sucked into the Star Observation Tower.
Zhong Zizheng was stunned for a moment, guessing that the teacher must be angry. He had never been so gloomy before.
He didn't stay for anything, turned around and left.
Outside the Star Observation Tower, Zhong Zizheng saw many bachelors from the Holy Academy gathered around and poked their heads in the air. He said in a deep voice, "What's there to see? Everyone, get out of here!"
The bachelor of All Saints Academy suddenly became frightened and retreated obediently.
But the gossip in my heart could not be calmed down.
If he was pretending to be the dean of Taishan Academy, then the Holy Lord would be greatly embarrassed!
at this time.
Star Observation Deck.
Deng Bin appeared here, with his back facing Kong Zhongzi, the Holy Master of the Holy Academy.
Deng Bin felt calm in his heart, but he still saluted and said: "Student has seen the Holy Lord!"
"snort!"
Kong Zhongzi snorted coldly and said, "You are very courageous!"
Deng Bin was silent, and after a moment he said doubtfully: "Students don't understand, so I hope the Holy Master can clarify my doubts!"
Uh-huh!
Kong Zhongzi disappeared like a ghost, and in the next breath, he appeared in front of Deng Bin.
Hurrah!
Several chains appeared out of thin air, trapping Deng Bin's body tightly and hovering in mid-air.
"Clear the confusion?"
Kong Zhongzi narrowed his eyes, stared at Deng Bin and said, "You dare to lie to me, and you still want me to help you answer your questions?"
Deng Bin had no disturbance in his heart, his face was calm and terrifying, and his eyes were as clear as water.
At this moment, he suddenly smiled.
Yes!
He is laughing.
Kong Zhongzi raised his eyebrows slightly, this man was still smiling when he was about to die?
"Why are you laughing?" Kong Zhongzi said solemnly.
"The Laughing Holy Lord and the Holy Lord in the students' minds are completely different!" Deng Bin said.
Uh-huh!
The chains formed by the rules of literature and art dissipated, and Deng Bin's figure slowly fell to the ground. Holy Master Kong stared at Deng Bin and said, "How should I say it? What does this person think of me in your mind?"
"Wisdom, elegance, knowledge of astronomy and geography, intelligence and understanding of the past and the present, a complete understanding of all matters in the world, strategizing, and victory thousands of miles away!"
Deng Bin's face did not turn red, his heart did not beat, and his words showed his respect for the Holy Lord.
"Ha ha!"
Kong Zhongzi stroked his beard and chuckled. He stared at Deng Bin with a smile but not a smile, and said: "Wisdom and elegance are not considered, and knowing astronomy and geography is out of the question. How can a non-sage know the affairs of the world? Second grade Yasheng, there are many in the Holy Text Continent..."
"So, this is the reason why you lied to me?"
Kong Zhongzi's eyes were a bit cold.
He can tolerate a lot of things.
Only the reputation of the Holy Academy and its prestige cannot be defeated. This is the key element for the cohesion of literary rules.
Just like the imperial court needs what the people want.
Once the reputation of the Holy Academy is greatly damaged and its prestige is lost, a new orthodoxy battle will begin.
Who can reshape the road.
Whoever represents the Tao behind his back can regain control of order.
That's why he was so excited when he learned that the two Mingfu poems from Yellow Crane Tower were actually related to the Holy Court.
Because this will bring the prestige of the Holy Court to a higher level.
The Bachelor of Letters is more cohesive.
Deng Bin shook his head and said, "What did I lie to the Holy Master about? My identity as the dean of Taishan Academy?"
"Ha~"
He smiled in despair, looked at Holy Master Kong seriously, and said: "Holy Master, students always act openly and aboveboard, and never do anything that goes against morality and true intentions!"
"A student is the dean of Taishan Academy for one day, and he will be the dean of Taishan Academy for ten days, and for a hundred days..."
Kong Zhongzi didn't say anything. He stretched out his hand and the desk, paper, ink, pen and inkstone flew from the sky and landed in front of Deng Bin. "Write down the two Mingfu poems outside the Yellow Crane Tower. I will compare the handwriting." , you will know everything, facts speak louder than words.”
"I personally apologize to you for confronting you."
"Sorry, there will never be another Deng Bin in the world!"
Kong Zhongzi's tone was calm, but the pressure he brought could make people collapse.
A drop of cold sweat broke out on the back of Deng Bin's head.
So cruel!
Directly send your own army?
Take a deep breath.
Deng Bin shook his head and said: "What the students wrote must not be accurate, because it was not written by the students!"
He admitted it openly.
It would be foolish to insist on quibbling at this time.
Plan A failed.
Plan B is still available!
This is the scariest thing.
There is a high probability that Holy Master Kong will completely fall into his own scam.
"Do you need me to say anything more?" Kong Zhongzi stared at Deng Bin with an indifferent expression.
at this point.
The truth has been revealed, he was tricked by the person in front of him.
Not only was he angry about this, he was even more angry... The Holy Court had no successors.
"In the heart of the Holy Lord, if a student cannot write those two Mingfu poems, is he not worthy of being the dean of Taishan Academy?"
Deng Bin's expression was as calm as ever, and he said slowly: "If the student says that it was a disciple of Taishan Academy, is it appropriate to inscribe it in the name of the dean?"
Kong Zhongzi's expression froze.
appropriate!
Of course there is no problem with this.
But can Deng Bin’s newly built Taishan Academy cultivate such disciples?
His disciple... I'm afraid he's still locked up in the yamen!
"That's right, but you and I know the foundation of your Taishan Academy. You don't have such disciples!"
Kong Zhongzi wanted to deny it, but also looked forward to it.
Because the Holy Academy is now in decline, it really needs a poet like this to support it.
Deng Bin smiled inwardly. Sure enough, Kong Zhongzi was in need of talents. The more he was like this, the easier it would be to be deceived.
He looked at Kong Zhongzi and said: "If the Holy Master doesn't believe it, can you follow the students to Taishan Academy? It just so happens that... the students also have some unkind invitations!"
Plan B.
start!
Your Highness, the next step will be to see your acting skills...
