Ch 73: Three Thousand Troops Storm The Master Craftsman’s Mansion
Duke Wei Guo’s Mansion.
Wen Hong was carefully reviewing a military manual.
In front of him was a map, specifically a strategic map of the border between Daqian and Yan Yun Kingdom.
Because Gong Chengyin died in Daqian, even with the best efforts to resolve the aftermath, the two sides are likely to inevitably go to war. Although his old bones might prevent him from going to the battlefield.
But as a General, he naturally must always be ready, considering the long term.
“Grandpa, quickly, come quickly! Grandpa!”
At that moment, Wen Wu yang’s anxious voice came from outside, without even knocking, she rushed in.
Wen Hong’s train of thought was interrupted, but he couldn’t get angry at his most precious granddaughter, he merely looked at her and smiled:
“Our Wu yang, so pretty and beautiful, and without the weakness of other well-bred young ladies. This has the style of our Wen Family, if only you knocked on the door before entering. That would be even better!”
“Grandpa, at this time. Don’t lecture me. Battle Poem, Battle Poem!! Lin Che created a Battle Poem.”
Wen Wu yang wasn’t someone to be coy, she placed the rolled-up Battle Poem paper on the table.
Then she pressed down on it with a small hand.
“Grandpa, both Battle Poems are golden yellow. Lin Che said, they are gifts for you. Be careful, don’t activate your True Qi. Otherwise, the Battle Poem’s fighting strength will be gone.”
“Are they truly Battle Poems?”
Wen Hong naturally knew how to activate Battle Poems, he wouldn’t unleash his General’s battle intent here.
An extremely serious expression appeared on his old face.
“Quickly let me see!”
Immediately.
Wen Wu yang opened the first scroll, inside, the golden yellow brilliant color was continuously gathering, not dissipating.
Each character was filled with immense battle intent.
They were indeed Battle Poems!!
“Good. Hahaha. They truly are Battle Poems—too good, too good!!”
“Quickly let me see the second one. Quickly!”
“Ten thousand flags to slay Yan Luo!!! Good, powerful enough, powerful enough!”
Wen Hong was incredibly excited, his eyes bursting with an unprecedented fervor.
“Quickly, tell Grandpa, how did Lin Che create them? Didn’t he lack Righteous Qi?”
“Of course he comprehended it while writing the Battle Poems. Grandpa, actually one of these Battle Poems should have reached the Crimson level, but it was delayed.”
Wen Wu yang didn’t stop for a moment, immediately quickly recounting the entire process.
Especially how Mo Zhaoxue was using her position to get revenge, repeatedly and deliberately preventing Lin Che from going to the Aspiration Platform.
Of course, she also mentioned the Grand Scholar whipping Mo Zhaoxue with a whip.
“What?? That’s all?”
Wen Hong abruptly stood up, his face full of anger, gnashing his teeth: “In ordinary commoners’ families, even disobedient children aren’t whipped two or three times. She ruined a Crimson Battle Poem, that’s a Battle Poem that dominates the battlefield. That’s all?”
“If our Daqian possessed a Crimson Battle Poem. Even if we didn’t use it for a hundred years, as long as it hung in the Imperial Palace, the soldiers of the Enemy Country wouldn’t dare to step into Daqian.”
“This Mo Zhaoxue, she ruined Daqian’s hundred years of peace!! Unacceptable!!”
“The Confucian Academy dares not teach, dares not speak. But I, Wen Hong, am not afraid!”
“Men—pass the military order!!”
Half an hour later.
Three thousand troops were ready.
This was because he was within the Inner City, Wen Hong only had this many troops.
If he were outside Tian Du City, he would have liked to bring thirty thousand troops.
“Come with me, surround the Mohist School, Mo Zhi Dong’s Mansion!!”
Mo Zhi Dong, one of the Three Great Master Craftsmen of the Mohist School, held an extremely high position. He was currently appointed as the chief official responsible for managing the flood.
This was why the students from the Confucian Academy did not dare to openly reprimand Mo Zhaoxue.
She had connections. She was beautiful.
But Wen Hong didn’t care about that, in his eyes, Mo Zhaoxue was a weak woman, one punch would be enough.
His subordinates were extremely loyal to him, naturally they wouldn’t ask questions, and immediately set off.
Three thousand troops moving within the Inner City immediately caused a huge commotion.
At this time.
In the Master Craftsman’s Mansion, Mo Zhaoxue was losing her temper at her maids.
“I said I won’t eat, won’t eat, don’t you have ears? Can’t you understand human language?”
“Miss, it’s, it’s the Mistress who said, you must go over. She, she wants to ask you what happened…”
The two maids answered tremblingly.
This Miss, in front of outsiders, was certainly a refined young lady, but if anyone angered her, she was fiercer than anyone.
“No, no. Get lost!!”
Mo Zhaoxue directly chased away the two maids, and slammed the door shut in her room.
Right now, she didn’t want to deal with anyone.
She really wished to hide away, not wanting to see anyone.
Right now, her family didn’t know what had happened, but the humiliation she suffered at the academy would certainly spread back home, and throughout the entire Mo family clan.
Before, she was the pride of the Mo family, now, she had suddenly become their shame.
“It’s all Lin Che’s fault, it’s all his fault, he ruined me.”
“He deliberately prepared two Battle Poems, deliberately came to the academy to show off to me. How will I face everyone in the future?”
“Even if I didn’t stop him, could his second poem have improved a level? I, I don’t think so.”
Mo Zhaoxue cursed, while fiercely throwing a teacup against the wall.
She was truly going mad.
Since childhood she was a prodigy, she was the smartest person in the Mo family, after reading so many Sage’s Books, she only possessed the most basic Righteous Qi.
But, why did Lin Che, just by writing two poems.
His Righteous Qi surpassed all the students.
Why??
At this moment, Mo Zhaoxue suddenly heard a chaotic and noisy sound outside. That sound was strange, like thousands of troops were running past her mansion.
The servants outside also let out cries of alarm.
Bang bang bang—
Another series of rapid knocks on the door.
“Miss, it’s not good, it’s not good.”
“Didn’t I tell you not to bother me? Can’t I have some quiet now?” Mo Zhaoxue shouted angrily again.
“Miss, you should come out quickly. An army has arrived outside, many troops, they have surrounded our mansion. Come out and see, they are looking for you.”
Mo Zhaoxue was puzzled, she had also heard the commotion.
She simply opened the door: “Who is looking for me? What do they want?”
“It’s those soldiers, they are so fierce. They said, you ruined a Battle Poem, they want the Mohist School to give an explanation!”
Mo Zhaoxue trembled, frightened, she sat down on the floor.
It’s over.
She forgot, Battle Poems and the Ministry of War were inseparable.
It’s over, it’s over, what to do? What should I do now?
