Chapter 166
Li Zhen said: "My father said that Grand Tutor Zong and the village chief were originally friends. The official might want them to eliminate the barriers? I don't know."
"Then...then..." Wen Huang frowned: "What does Grand Tutor Zong say? Can he agree?"
Li Zhen: "He agreed! Let us go together and set off tomorrow morning."
"Teacher Zong asked me to go too?" She pointed at her nose.
Li Zhen nodded.
"Okay, I happen to go home to check it out," said Wen Huang.
The next day, she and Li Zhen followed Grand Tutor Zong back to Sangyu Village.
Grand Tutor Zong brought Zong Yang with him and several guards, while Li Zhen and his two lords had only one carriage. The trip was very low-key.
But it still attracted the attention of the villagers and soon reached the village chief, saying that outsiders had entered the village.
The village chief’s family and the school are one. The village chief is backed by a large bamboo forest and a large courtyard house at the foot of the mountain, with white walls, black tiles and reliefs. It is the most impressive place in the village.
There is a plaque written by the village chief Mingcheng himself at the door: Sangyu Village Xueshu.
The carriage went straight to the village chief's house. The village chief was waiting at Xueshu's door. First, he saw Wen Huang and Li Zhen get out of the car and said with a smile: "I think who is here? It turns out it's you! You have just returned not long ago, why are you back?"
"Village Chief." Li Zhen bowed: "Someone wants to see you!"
"See me? Who?" the village chief looked at the carriage behind them in wonder.
The carriage did not move for a long time, and Li Zhen and Zong Yang took turns to invite him. The Grand Tutor of Zong got out of the car, walked to the village chief, and said firmly: "It's me, do you still recognize me?"
The village chief looked at him for a long time, suddenly laughed, bowed and said, "Caominmingcheng, I have met Lord Zong!"
Grand Tutor Zong said with a gloomy face: "I came here at the order."
Mingcheng was obviously a little surprised, but he didn't ask too much, and smiled and made a "please" gesture, asking them to go in and speak.
After entering, the guest and the guest were seated, and the Grand Tutor of Zong said, "I guess you have guessed it too, because Li Zhen! Li Zhen is the son of the Princess of Yan State and the grandson of Your Majesty. Because his knowledge is not bad, Your Majesty asked about his mentor and knew you. Therefore, Your Majesty wants to invite you to the palace and give you a reward."
Mingcheng was not surprised too much, he just made tea quietly.
After soaking, I brought one of the cups in front of Master Zong and said, "Taste, I grow it myself, pick it myself, and make it myself."
Grand Tutor Zong sneered: "What tea should you drink? Or not, it's a matter of one word."
Mingcheng glanced at him and smiled: "Does Your Majesty want me to go, or do you not want me to go?"
"Do you think he is so idle with you?" said Grand Tutor Zong: "If he doesn't want you to go, why do you need me to invite you?"
"I'm wondering too!" Mingcheng said: "If he wanted me to go, why would he ask you to come and invite me? He must know that we are enemies!"
Grand Tutor Zong stared at him, his eyes indeed the same as those of his enemies: "So you definitely won't go? That's just right! Say goodbye!"
He stood up and left.
"I'll go." Mingcheng said.
Grand Tutor Zong paused, and then showed a sarcastic smile: "You haven't seen each other for decades, and you're a tyrant! You still can't bear to give up your majesty's reward, right? Where did you have the spirit of leaving the Golden Palace with your head held high?"
"It's not for the reward." Mingcheng said with a smile: "I'm for you. I'm afraid that you won't do your job well, so I will be punished by the government afterwards."
"That's so thank you!" Grand Tutor Zong said sarcastically: "Then let's go now!"
