Chapter 591 Wen Liang Meets Su Yu

The sun shone on the ancient streets of Youzhou, and Xi Yu walked slowly with Su Yu and Old Man Sun.

Xi Yu looked at Old Man Sun curiously and asked, "I haven't asked the old man his name yet!"

Old Man Sun smiled and replied in a calm voice: "I'm Sun Zhaomeng."

Entering the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xi Yu came to the study.

With a focused expression, he explained the principles of printing to Sun Zhaomeng and Su Yu.

Sun Zhaomeng listened intently, his hands trembling slightly from time to time, as if he was imagining the magic of printing.

Su Yu stared at Xi Yu intently, nodding from time to time, his eyes revealing his desire for new knowledge.

After Xi Yu finished speaking, he looked at Sun Zhaomeng and Su Yu with a smile and said, "When you master it, we can start running the newspaper."

Sun Zhaomeng stood up excitedly, his voice trembling slightly: "Thank you, Prime Minister, for your advice. Su Yu and I will study hard."

Su Yu also nodded firmly, expressing his willingness to go all out.

At the gate of Youzhou City, Wen Liang arrived in a dusty state. He was stopped by the soldiers guarding the city.

Wen Liang said anxiously: "Fellow military lords, I have something urgent. There is a patient at home who is in urgent need of treatment by the miracle doctor Song Shuwen. Please let me in."

The soldier replied expressionlessly: "No, there is a transit system here, and no one can come in or out at will. Even if you have patients at home, you can't make an exception."

Wen Liang was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He begged, "Please, please be accommodating. My patient is in critical condition."

The soldier shook his head indifferently and said, "Do you think we will let you in casually? If everyone is like you, what's the use of the transit system?"

Wen Liang sighed helplessly and could only turn around and leave. As he walked, he cursed in his mind.

He came to an inn near the border. There were people coming and going in the inn, and it was extremely noisy.

Wen Liang found a corner and sat down, feeling heavy.

Outside the inn, the sun was blazing, the streets were dusty, and it was a lively scene.

But Wenliang's heart was full of anxiety and helplessness.

He sat there, looking out the window silently, thinking about how he could see Song Shuwen.

On this day, the sun was shining brightly, and Xiyu strolled to the moat.

The clear river water sparkled in the sun, and the breeze blew gently, blowing his hair.

Xi Yu stood quietly by the river, looking into the distance, looking a little tired.

At this time, Wenxuan came over from not far away.

With an excited look on her face, she walked quickly to Xi Yu and said, "Xi Yu, you are here."

"Yeah, I was in a bad mood, so I came here for a walk."

Of course, Xi Yu was talking about Jia Xu.

"By the way, let me share something with you. I heard that there is a child prodigy in a place called Sijiu City. This child prodigy can also compose poems, and is recognized by the majority of people!" Wenxuan said.

Xi Yu frowned slightly, showed a disapproving smile, and said lightly: "What's the point? It's probably because people don't understand poetry, so they just think it's a little good."

Wenxuan shook her head anxiously, gestured with her hands, and said, "That's not the case. Many great scholars have special recognition of that child!" Her eyes were full of wonder and curiosity.

There was a trace of surprise on Xi Yu's face, and the original tired expression was gradually replaced by curiosity.

He stared at Wenxuan and asked, "Oh? There is such a powerful child? What is the style of his poetry?"

Wenxuan scratched his head, thought for a moment and then said: "I don't know exactly. I just heard that the prodigy's poems are amazing."

The corners of Xi Yu's mouth raised slightly, and a trace of expectation flashed in his eyes.

"It seems like this child prodigy is really interesting."

Xi Yu stared at Wenxuan closely and then asked, "Do you just want to share this topic?" There was a trace of suspicion in his eyes.

Wenxuan folded his hands on his chest and replied firmly: "No, I hope to see this child with my own eyes."

Xi Yu said lightly: "Then just ask Lu Su for a leave. Why bother telling me?"

Wenxuan grabbed Xi Yu's sleeve and begged, "I hope to go with you."

Xiyu waved his hand impatiently.

"I don't have time. How can a prime minister handle such a trivial matter?"

When Wenxuan saw this, he rolled his eyes at Xiyu and said angrily: "How big your official position is now, and your arrogance has become so big!"

At this time, the sun was still warm, the breeze blew gently, and ripples appeared on the water of the moat.

The willow trees on the shore sway in the wind.

Xi Yu sighed secretly in his heart. He knew Dongfanghong was infatuated with Wenxuan and hoped that Dongfanghong could have a chance to be alone with Wenxuan.

Maybe this would make Dongfanghong happier.

He thought in his mind: "Dongfanghong has always liked Wenxuan silently. If we can create opportunities for them to be alone, maybe there will be a different development."

Xi Yu looked at Wenxuan and said seriously: "I think you can let Dongfang Hong go with you."

Wenxuan was very angry after hearing this.

Her face turned red, her eyes widened, and her voice rose an octave.

"You're just messing around with the rules, it's just nonsense!"

She waved her hands in the air, expressing her displeasure.

Xi Yu couldn't help but get angry.

He frowned and said stiffly: "Then you go alone!"

Wenxuan took a deep breath and tried to calm down.

After thinking for a moment, she came up with a compromise plan.

"You can allow Dongfanghong to go, but you must send a general to follow us to protect our safety."

Xiyu felt that Wenxuan was making a fuss. How could his general do such a trivial thing casually?

He showed a helpless and dissatisfied expression on his face.

Seeing that Xiyu did not agree, Wenxuan turned around and was about to leave in anger.

Xiyu quickly reached out to hold him and said helplessly: "Okay, I agree with you."

Wenxuan finally showed a happy smile on his face.

Xiyu was actually full of curiosity.

He thought to himself: "How capable is this kid?"

So he decided to send Zhao Yun to go with him.

Wenxuan returned to the college happily and asked Lu Su for leave.

Lu Su knew that Xiyu had agreed, so he naturally didn't say anything more.

He smiled and said to Wenxuan: "Since the prime minister has agreed, then you can go. Remember to adjust the course with other teachers."

After Wenxuan left Lu Su's office, a trace of uneasiness suddenly surged in his heart.

Her steps became a little heavy, as if the ground under her feet suddenly gained weight.

She thought to herself: "I didn't tell Lu Su first, but told Xi Yu directly about this matter. Did I go over the line? Will Lu Su be unhappy about this?" His brows frowned slightly, and there was a trace of worry in his eyes.

Wenxuan's heart began to be tangled.

She knew Lu Su's status and influence in the college, and she also understood that her behavior might be regarded as disrespectful to Lu Su.

Wenxuan came to the office, and after seeing Dongfanghong, she whispered: "Dongfanghong, come out for a moment, I have something to tell you."

Dongfanghong showed a surprised look in his eyes.

He looked at Wenxuan in confusion, but still followed him out of the office.

They came to the yard, and the sun shone on the ground, reflecting the figures of the two.

Wenxuan took a deep breath and told Dongfanghong about going to Sijiu City to find the child prodigy.

Dongfanghong's face immediately showed excitement after hearing this.

His eyes sparkled, and he said excitedly: "Really? That's great! Can I go with you?"

However, Wenxuan's face became serious.

She looked at Dongfanghong and said seriously: "Don't think too much. Even if I go with you, it doesn't mean that I will like you. Besides, Xiyu will send a general to protect us."

Dongfanghong's smile froze on her face instantly, and a trace of disappointment and regret flashed in her eyes.

But he quickly regained his composure and whispered: "Oh, so..."

There was a little helplessness in his voice.

At this time, a breeze blew and blew their hair.

Dongfanghong silently looked at the light and shadow on the ground, with some regrets in his heart.

But he thought about it and thought that this was not bad. At least he could go to Sijiucheng with Wenxuan, and maybe some interesting things would happen on the way.

However, Dongfanghong scratched his head, with a puzzled look on his face, and said: "Wenxuan, I have never heard of the child prodigy. What is going on?"

Wenxuan looked at him and talked about the relevant things in a calm tone.

Dongfanghong listened attentively to Wenxuan's story, with a glimmer of curiosity in his eyes.

That day, Wenliang came to the border crossing, and he still wanted to enter with a glimmer of hope.

The surrounding environment of the border crossing seemed a little solemn, and the soldiers stood there straight, with serious expressions, as if it was an indestructible fortress.

The soldier said seriously: "You must apply for a certificate to enter, and you must have a document from the official office of your ancestral home."

The voice was sonorous and powerful.

Wenliang hurriedly put on a smile and said sincerely that he just wanted to go back to his hometown, and it was too troublesome to go through these procedures.

As he spoke, he cast a pleading look at the soldiers, hoping that they could make some concessions.

However, the soldier was very principled. He straightened up and said righteously: "This is the Prime Minister's rule, and we have no say."

Wenliang said that the guests at his home could not wait.

The soldier had no expression on his face and said stiffly, "Again, there must be a document from the government of the ancestral home."

Wen Liang frowned, thinking that this system was too rigid. He gritted his teeth and knelt down to the soldier with a plop, his eyes full of pleading.

However, the soldier's expression did not change at all, and he still shook his head coldly, indicating that he did not agree.

Wen Liang raised his head, with a helpless look on his face.

He said in a trembling voice, "In this case, can you please inform me? I can't go in myself, but Dr. Song Shuwen can come out, right?"

The soldier's face was full of displeasure, and he said coldly, "Do we have to obey every request from an outsider? This is impossible."

Just then, a crisp sound of horse hooves came from far away.

I saw a horse galloping over, and the horse's hooves raised a cloud of dust.

The person on the horse was Su Yu.

He was wearing a simple black robe and had an upright posture.

Su Yu was going outside to do something. When he saw Wen Liang kneeling on the ground, a trace of surprise and confusion appeared on his face.

He frowned and thought to himself: "Isn't this the drunkard from that day?"

Su Yu pulled the reins, dismounted and asked the soldiers what happened.

The soldiers reported the incident to Su Yu.

Wen Liang looked at Su Yu and felt that he looked familiar. He hesitated and asked: "Have we met before?"

Su Yu sneered and replied, "Yes, but you were drunk that day and insulted the prime minister."

There was a trace of contempt in his eyes.

Wen Liang heard from the old man that he had offended someone after drinking, but he didn't expect that the person he offended was the prime minister.

He was shocked and told Su Yu in panic.

"I was drunk and didn't mean it!"

Su Yu said lightly: "The prime minister was kind, otherwise he would have killed you long ago."

Wen Liang looked at Su Yu expectantly and asked carefully: "So you are someone close to the prime minister, so can you help me inform him?"

Su Yu frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and nodded.

He knew that human life was at stake, and looking at Wen Liang's anxious expression, he finally agreed.

When he learned that Wen Liang lived in the inn,

Su Yu waved his hand and said calmly: "Just wait at the inn. I'll find you there when I'm done."

Wen Liang was overjoyed when he heard this, and his eyes were shining with excitement.

That day, Xi Yu found Zhao Yun and whispered: "Zhao Yun, I hope you can accompany Wen Xuan and Dongfang Hong to find the child prodigy."

Zhao Yun showed a trace of doubt on his face and asked puzzledly.

"Prime Minister, why is this? I don't quite understand."

Xi Yu took a deep breath and explained slowly: "This journey is quite dangerous, and someone needs to protect their safety. I am confident in your skills and courage."

And he told him about the child prodigy.

Xi Yu whispered again: "You can go to the academy directly and ask when they leave, and you can accompany them when they leave."

Zhao Yun came to the academy and saw Wen Xuan from a distance.

Wenxuan greeted Zhao Yun with a smile: "General Zhao, did the Prime Minister ask you to come?"

"Yes, the Prime Minister has already told you about it. I just wanted to ask you, when are we going to leave?"

"Let's leave tomorrow."

The next morning, the sun shone through the thin clouds and fell on the bluestone path of the academy.

Zhao Yun, dressed in white, stood tall at the entrance of the academy, with two soldiers leading two horses beside him.

Wenxuan looked at the tall and mighty horses in front of him and said with difficulty: "I can't ride a horse."

Dongfanghong, who was standing beside him, was very excited and said loudly: "Then let's ride one horse!"

Wenxuan was very angry, but when he thought that he really couldn't ride a horse, he had to agree reluctantly.

He muttered to himself: "It's impossible to ride a horse with Zhao Yun."

Xiaocui wanted to go with them, but Wenxuan considered the long journey and worried that Xiaocui would be tired, so he persuaded her not to follow.

In this way, the three of them set off.

In the inn, Wen Liang paced anxiously in the room, looking at the door from time to time, expecting Su Yu's arrival.

A day passed, and Su Yu still did not show up.

Wen Liang thought to himself: "It costs a lot to stay in the inn all the time, and my wife must be waiting anxiously at home."

At Fang's house, she was also restless.

Jia Xu has lost his memory now, like a fool. Despite this, in order to avoid suspicion, Fang had to invite the neighbor's sister-in-law to live with her.

One day, Fang couldn't help complaining to the neighbor's sister-in-law: "My husband is so nosy!"

The neighbor's sister-in-law comforted her: "You, don't complain, this shows that Wen Liang is a very kind person."

Fang thought, what's the use of being kind, in the end it's still herself who suffers.

The sun shines through the thin clouds and sprinkles on the stone road outside the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Zhao Yun and the other three figures arrived.

The door of the Prime Minister's Mansion was open, and the guards at the door stood upright.

Zhao Yun looked up at the gate and whispered to the two people, "Let's go in. We should report this to the Prime Minister."

The three of them entered the house.

Xi Yu was wearing a green robe and sitting on a chair.

Zhao Yun saluted Xi Yu.

"Prime Minister, we are ready. We have prepared all the dry food and money."

"Very good. Then you should be careful on your way."

Zhao Yun bowed his hands and saluted.

"Thank you, Prime Minister. We will be careful."

Xi Yu glanced at the three people and showed a trace of concern on his face.

"If you encounter difficulties on the way, don't be stubborn. Send a message back in time."

Zhao Yun and others nodded in response, then talked with Xi Yu for a while and turned to leave.

Their figures gradually disappeared at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion and merged into the bustling crowd outside.

On the other side, Lei Tiangui lay quietly in the cave, feeling the subtle changes in the gradual healing of his wounds.

He silently calculated in his heart that in two or three days, he might be able to go out.

His thoughts involuntarily drifted to his enemies. He clenched his teeth, and an uncontrollable hatred surged in his heart.

"Damn it!" He cursed in his heart.

That day, the child prodigy came to the village entrance in a simple dress with brisk steps.

At this time, a man with gorgeous clothes and extraordinary demeanor slowly walked over.

He looked at the child prodigy eagerly and said, "I heard that you are a child prodigy with great talent and your poetry is even better. I came here today because I hope you can become my son's teacher. What do you think?"

The child prodigy smiled slightly, his young face showed a bit of calmness, and he answered softly: "I have no say in this matter, I need to ask my grandfather."

A glimmer of expectation flashed in the eyes of the official, and he hurriedly said: "Can I meet your grandfather?"

The child prodigy smiled and looked at the official, and his young voice came clearly.

"Sir, it's a coincidence that grandpa is not at home these two days. Please come back in a few days."

The official frowned and looked at the child prodigy up and down, as if to judge whether he was lying. The child prodigy's eyes were as clear as water, and his face was sincere.

"Well, then I will come back in a few days." The official waved his hand helplessly and left with the servants.

The child prodigy smiled and bowed to thank everyone, and then began to perform poetry. (End of this chapter)
