Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 709 Bathing and Changing Clothes

Lin Feng stood at the door of the house and calmed himself down. Now that he was here, he should stop complaining and wait and see what kind of monsters would appear here.

Pei Qiyin, who was following behind Lin Feng, also felt something was wrong, but since he had already entered the building, he could not lose his composure and not let people look down on him.

She secretly pinched the piece of bamboo tube she carried with her, and felt a little relieved.

That was the signal they had agreed upon. As long as the bamboo tube was pulled open, there would be a loud explosion. The guards outside Wenjun Tower and the five thousand troops outside the mansion could flatten the place in almost an instant.

Pei Qiyin followed Lin Feng into the house. It was very humid and hot inside, obviously a place for bathing.

As soon as she entered the room, she carefully felt the abnormality of the entire space, trying to find a flaw in the dull and depressing atmosphere.

At the same time, in another room in Wenjun Tower, Grand Tutor Wan Quan and Prime Minister Han Qi were sitting opposite each other with serious expressions.

The tea on their table had already gone cold, but no one touched it. They just frowned and stared at each other. The atmosphere was very tense.

"Grandmaster, we cannot take action in the current situation."

Han Qi said firmly.

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you give it up, it will be hard to find it again. I can't wait any longer."

Grand Tutor Wan’s attitude was also very firm.

Han Qi pointed out the window.

"Lin Feng's five thousand cavalrymen are just outside the courtyard. If anything happens to him, Grand Master, have you considered the consequences?"

"The person is already dead. We just need to hand over the murderer. What can they say?"

"Hmph, Grand Tutor, you've been blinded by hatred. Once Lin Feng dies, these men won't care about the murderer anymore. I'm afraid no one from Wenjun Tower will get out alive."

Han Qi almost suppressed a roar.

"Do they have the guts?"

Grand Tutor Wan was very disdainful.

Han Qi counted on his fingers, "There are Jiao Sanqiang, Zhao Wenqi, Zhao Gui... all of them are important officials of the court. They even dare to attack the royal family. Don't they have the courage?"

"That's just Lin Feng. His men may not dare to risk annihilating the nine clans."

"Grand Master, you also know that it's not certain, but not possible. We can't bury him with us, right?"

"You and I can leave here first."

Han Qi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Do you think they will let us leave?"

"Do they dare to stop the Grand Tutor and Prime Minister?"

Han Qi nodded gently: "Even if they don't stop us, I'm afraid we can't escape their pursuit."

Grand Tutor Wan grabbed the teacup in his hand and squeezed it tightly, his fingers trembling from the force.

"San Qiang and Wen Qi were captured and they definitely couldn't withstand his torture. They knew what they should and shouldn't say... If we don't take action, you should know the consequences."

Han Qi shook his head: "That's a matter for the future. It's better than being destroyed now. Let's try a different approach, Grand Master."

"Then tell me, what's the alternative?"

Han Qi frowned and stared at the teacup on the table for a while.

"He has caught our taboo, and we can also give him an indelible stain."

Grand Tutor Wan spread his hands and said, "This kid has no taboos. He doesn't even take the emperor seriously."

Han Qi snorted coldly: "Humph, he dared to take the risk to come to Wenjuan Tower, what's his purpose?"

"reputation?"

"That's right, everyone dislikes fame and fortune. Since he values ​​reputation, let's throw some dirty water on him, the kind that will leave him with no way to defend himself."

Wan Quan blinked his eyes and said, "Prime Minister, please teach me."

Han Qi waved at Wan Quan, asking him to come closer and whisper something into his ear.

After hearing this, Wan Quan looked depressed and hesitant.

"Grandmaster, this is a foolproof plan. As long as Lin Feng keeps his mouth shut, we should still have many opportunities to plot against him."

After hesitating for a while, Wan Quan had no choice but to nod.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, are indeed very shrewd and calculating. I admire you."

Here, Lin Feng was lying naked in a pool, shrouded in mist.

The water temperature was just right, making him feel very comfortable.

Pei Qiyin was combing his long hair in the back, while the elegant woman was pouring tea and water for him.

Originally, these tasks should have been done by this woman, but Pei Qiyin refused.

How could we let someone else take charge of such a dangerous place?

After her careful inspection, she found nothing suspicious.

Lin Feng just took it easy and followed the local customs.

The woman pouring tea told Lin Feng that they would wait until noon to start worshiping the Sage of Literature, and Mr. Ji Siyuan, the owner of Wenjun Tower, would preside over the award ceremony.

Then there will be the imperial conferment, followed by an exchange meeting for professors from the Academy of Arts, and then a dinner with important figures in attendance.

The whole process seems to be fine, but I don’t know who the important figures in the court are and how they should appear.

Originally, such a grand award ceremony for the top scholar needed to be held in Wenjun Building for three days.

Because of Lin Feng's identity and the battlefield environment he was in, the award ceremony was shortened to one day.

Up to now, Lin Feng has not received any news from Hong Xiao, and he doesn't know where she is hiding.

Of course, Lin Feng and Pei Qiyin still firmly believed that Hong Xiao would not be in danger because of her agility and speed, and no one could hurt her.

Even Lin Feng, who was holding a knife, could not grasp Hong Xiao's position, let alone hurt her.

Therefore, if there is someone who can hurt Hong Xiao, there is no need to go to so much trouble to set up so many traps for Lin Feng to fall into.

Just attack directly, Lin Feng will definitely not be able to dodge.

After washing up and changing into the coarse cloth gown unique to Wenjunlou, Lin Feng was led to an elegant room and given a new cup of fragrant tea.

Lin Feng's body twisted slightly, which made Pei Qiyin very curious, so she leaned over to his ear and asked.

"General, are you feeling unwell?"

"Well, this kind of coarse cloth is very itchy when wrapped around the body."

Pei Qiyin had carefully checked this kind of clothes and knew that there was nothing wrong with it. If it was just scratching, it could only mean that the workmanship and material of this coarse cloth were too rough.

Ji Siyuan took Lin Feng to pay homage to the Sage of Literature.

Lin Feng discovered that this Wensheng Ji Wenchang was just a statue, just like the Black Turban Society's worship of the Virgin Mary.

At noon, Lin Feng was brought to the third-floor hall of Wenjun Building to receive the award from Dazong Academy of Literature. The emperor also appointed Lin Feng as a professor of the academy, and he enjoyed the treatment of a fourth-rank civil servant in the Dazong court.

After a lot of trouble, it was finally the beginning of the You hour, and the dinner was served at Wenjunlou.

There were only fifteen professors from the Faculty of Arts left in the hall.

They all wore the same grey coarse cloth gowns and dressed the same way.

Lin Feng looked carefully and found that two acquaintances had sneaked in among the professors sitting side by side.

One is Zhao Tianyu, and the one sitting opposite her is Wan Zhuo.

The two men noticed that Lin Feng was looking at them, and one of them winked at him and smiled mischievously.

The other one narrowed his eyes, revealing a look of disdain.

There was a long table filled with vegetables but no meat.

This made Lin Feng doubt for a moment that he was becoming a monk instead of entering the Dazong Academy of Literature.

What made him happy was that the red wine brewed by the Academy of Literature was indeed very smooth and had a very mellow taste.
