Chapter 711: Try your best to persuade;
Wan Quan, the Grand Tutor of the Dazong clan, was furious. He stood at the door of the hall and glared at his son.
Ji Siyuan was so angry that he was shaking all over and pointed at Wan Zhuo.
"How can this be absurd, how can this be absurd, it is an insult to civility..."
Wan Zhuo looked depressed. Under his father's angry glare, he had to walk out of the hall with his head down, covered in soup.
A hint of disappointment flashed across Zhao Tianyu's eyes.
Nong Shangjin glanced at Lin Feng, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He ignored the old men's pointing and scolding, and strode out of the hall.
Lin Feng smiled self-deprecatingly and bowed to the old professors.
"I am sorry to disturb your pleasure, gentlemen. I will take my leave."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the hall door.
Pei Qiyin followed behind him, and Zhao Tianyu ran out right after him.
Zhao Tianyu was still a little wary of the current Grand Tutor, the emperor's father-in-law.
Lin Feng came to the door of the hall and saw Grand Tutor Wan still standing on the side.
At this time, two rows of candles had been lit in the entire third-floor corridor, making it very bright.
As soon as Lin Feng walked out of the hall, he was blown by a cool breeze and felt dizzy. The two rows of lights turned into countless scattered light spots in his eyes.
He gathered himself together and managed to find the stairs. Just as he was about to go down, he heard Master Wan speak.
"Duke Lin, please stay."
Seeing that Lin Feng's body was shaking slightly, Pei Qiyin knew that he had drunk too much, so he quickly stepped forward and held Lin Feng's arm.
"Master Grand Tutor, are you calling me?"
"The owner of Wenjuan Tower has been waiting for Duke Lin for a long time. Please move aside for a moment."
Lin Feng frowned: "Isn't the owner of Wenjuan Tower Mr. Ji Siyuan?"
"Mr. Ji is only the maintainer of Dazong Wenyuan and the manager of Wenjun Building, but he is not the owner."
Lin Feng nodded: "Is that so? But why does the owner of Wenjuan Tower want to see me?"
Grand Tutor Wan smiled and said, "It has been five years since Wenjuan Tower has produced a top scholar. Duke Lin has broken this curse, and the owner is very happy. He asked me to be the envoy and invite Duke Lin to meet him."
Lin Feng chuckled: "I drank a few more cups today, so I'm a little inconvenient. Please tell the Grand Tutor that we'll meet again another day."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the stairs.
Grand Tutor Wan was standing there, stunned. Why was this kid so casual?
Normally, a newly crowned top scholar, having just received someone's award and title, should at least say hello to their master, right?
But...
However, when Lin Feng reached the stairs, Prime Minister Han Qi was coming towards him with a smile on his face.
"Haha, Duke Lin, take care. It's not easy for Master Wenjuan to come here today. The two of you meeting each other is an opportunity not everyone can have."
Lin Feng looked at Han Qi, then turned to look at Wan Quan.
The two of them were already the highest civil and military leaders in the Dazong Dynasty, but they both urged me to meet with the owner of Wenjun Tower.
It seems that the poster is very influential, or he has some conspiracy.
Lin Feng smiled: "Really want to see?"
Han Qi nodded sincerely: "It would be best if we meet."
"Okay, let's meet."
"Okay, Duke Lin, please come this way."
Prime Minister Han Qi led the way personally, walked up the stairs to the second floor, turned left into the corridor, and walked to the end of the corridor.
There were four young men standing in front, all of them had strong bodies and were looking at Lin Feng and others vigilantly.
Han Qi nodded to a few people in the front.
"This is the Wen Kui that the master of the building wants to see. Please let him know."
Someone turned and walked into a door.
Soon, the man who reported the news came out quickly and nodded to Han Qi.
"please."
Han Qi turned and smiled at Lin Feng.
"Duke Lin, please come in."
Lin Feng walked towards the door, and when he was about to enter, a man stretched out his hand and stopped Pei Qiyin.
"The host said that only Wenkui can come to the audience."
Lin Feng also stopped, something was wrong.
He turned to look at Han Qi.
Han Qi quickly put on a smile and said, "It's the rules of Wenjun Tower Master. After all, I have taken over his title. I am here to accompany you, so what is there for the Duke to worry about?"
Lin Feng waved his hand: "Forget it, I have something else to do, see you another day."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Han Qi quickly opened his arms and stopped Lin Feng in the corridor.
"Alas, Duke, the Academy of Literature is a place that values etiquette. You are already a professor there, and I, being appointed its leader, cannot be criticized. How about giving me some face?"
Lin Feng looked at Han Qi who was blocking the way.
"Prime Minister, there is no conflict or hatred between you and me, how could it be..."
"Hey, what are you thinking, Duke? We just need to meet according to etiquette. I promise I have no ulterior motives."
As Han Qi spoke, he turned and looked at Pei Qiyin.
"I'm here with this girl. If anything goes wrong, I'm still here."
His meaning was very clear. He had taken himself hostage to Lin Feng. If anything went wrong, Pei Qiyin would definitely be the first one who would not let him go.
Lin Feng pondered for a moment and wondered if he had become the enemy of everyone.
"Since the Prime Minister is so urging me to do so, I believe that the owner of Wenjun Tower must be extraordinary. I would like to meet him. What's the harm?"
"That's right, this is the demeanor of a great general commanding hundreds of thousands of troops."
Pei Qiyin was unwilling to do so. Even if something happened, she was unwilling to exchange the old man's life for Lin Feng's life.
"General, why do I feel that this place..."
She shook her head and didn't say anything else, but her meaning was obvious: there was a problem here.
Besides, Lin Feng changed into someone else's coarse cloth gown, which was sparse and rough from inside to outside. He had no weapons on his body and even took off his usual soft armor.
Lin Feng reached out and patted her shoulder, giving her a reassuring look.
I have five or six thousand cavalrymen surrounding them, and I don’t believe they dare to lose their lives here.
Besides, Lin Feng became more and more curious. He must have a deep hatred with Grand Tutor Wan and his son Wan Zhuo.
But I have no connection with Han Qi. Could it be that Han Qi would get involved and want to cause trouble for me?
Besides, Hong Xiao hasn't shown up yet, so she probably hasn't noticed anything unusual. This small building should still be safe.
While thinking about it, he had already stepped into the room.
A heavy and simple wooden door slowly closed behind Lin Feng.
There were a few lights on in the room. Although it was not very bright, it was enough to see the surrounding situation clearly.
Lin Feng walked forward slowly and came into view of a round archway. A maid stood at the door with a smile on her face. She extended her hand to invite Lin Feng to come in.
After entering the circular archway, the view is bright, and it is a very warmly decorated hall.
Lin Feng smelled a fresh fragrance in his nostrils, which penetrated into his heart and spleen, and made his drunkenness melt away a little.
There was another carved wooden door in front of him. The waitress beside the door saw Lin Feng coming, gently opened the door, and bowed to invite him in.
Lin Feng walked in without hesitation.
As soon as he entered the door, he heard a peaceful, distant, rich and mellow piano sound, which made Lin Feng feel peaceful immediately, but his mind was soaring.
Glancing around, I saw only a woman in the corner of the room, playing the piano with her head down, and no one else.
