The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 929 Liu Shan, take action!

"Why panic!" Liu Shan slammed the desk in front of him.

Bang... clatter...

The solid desk was completely shattered by the tremendous force. Papers were scattered, ink spattered, and the brushes rolled around.

Butler Liu who pushed the door in was so frightened that his legs weakened and he knelt on the ground with a plop, trembling.

As a person who has served Liu Shan for decades, Butler Liu knows best that Liu Shan is the kind of person who remains calm even when the mountain collapses. No matter how big of a deal he encounters, it is impossible for him to lose his composure.

But today, Liu Shan actually smashed the table into pieces!

What a gaffe!

"Tell me, what's going on?" Liu Shan sat on the chair with a gloomy face.

"You...don't you know?" After Butler Liu said that, his heart suddenly jumped, and then he realized that the big thing he was talking about was not the same thing as what Liu Shan encountered. Something that could make Liu Shan smash the table in anger. How bad is it?

Liu Shan's expression softened slightly and he said, "Is there something going on at home?"

Butler Liu's eyes were red, and he said with a cry: "Master, your unborn grandson and granddaughter were killed by that cheap maid Lan Xiang, and even the second young lady almost lost her life."

Liushan's pupils suddenly expanded and quickly returned to their original state.

"Stand up and tell me what happened in detail."

Butler Liu didn't dare to stand up and replied hurriedly: "The thing is like this, the second young lady was originally jealous. After the second young master Nalanxiang became his concubine, she tried every means to make things difficult for Lanxiang. I also reported to you that Lanxiang had a miscarriage last year. , it was the Second Young Madam who did it. Lan Xiang didn’t know about it at first, but since October last year, Lan Xiang seemed to have done something wrong. Knowing this, they became inseparable from each other. Master Mingzhi had a soft spot for Lanxiang, but the second young lady was in the wrong, and there was nothing she could do about Lanxiang. However, after the second young lady became pregnant, she learned that she was pregnant. As a twin, my status in the family rose sharply, and I had a bad temper during pregnancy, so I said some things I shouldn't have said..."

"What did she say?" Liu Shan asked.

"The Second Young Madam said that she would drive Lan Xiang out after giving birth to two children. Just today, Lan Xiang drugged the Second Young Madam's anti-fetal medicine, causing the Second Young Madam to have hemorrhage and almost die. "

"Just kill him with the stick." Liu Shan's tone was cold.

"Yes, I will kill Lan Xiang's wretched maid and the maid she brought with me."

At this moment, a voice came from outside the door.

"Teacher!" Ji Zhibai quickly ran into the study, saw the mess all over the floor, and stayed where he was.

When Liu Shan saw that Ji Zhibai's clothes were disheveled, he actually ran in. He was about to open his mouth to teach him a lesson for not being self-reflective, but when he saw the mess in front of him, he silently closed his mouth again.

"I've met Mr. Ji." After Butler Liu finished speaking, he lowered his head and left in a hurry.

Ji Zhibai stood at the door for a long time before tentatively asking: "Teacher, do you already know about Yunlou's arrival in Ning'an?"

"Even what happened in the county government office, I already know about it." Liu Shan returned to his usual elegant appearance, quite the demeanor of an elder, especially the slight whiteness of his temples, which made his temperament even more obvious. However, Liu Shan's eyes were filled with something that he didn't usually see.

Ji Zhibai spat loudly and said: "Master, your comment is that Fang Yun is too arrogant! He actually forced Master Geng to lose his face. How will Master Geng be able to lead the transportation department in the future? Fortunately, Master Geng is a member of my Za family. , able to bend and stretch, otherwise it will be early The literary courage is broken. And the great scholar Xu Shi, with such a high status, actually intimidated a Hanlin. If everyone behaves like this in the future, wouldn’t it be a chaos in the world? , I must ask for an explanation.”

Liu Shan glanced at Ji Zhibai seemingly casually and asked, "You said Xu Shi was threatening, do you have any real evidence?"

"Uh..." Ji Zhibai was speechless. Xu Shi just said that Geng Ge was suitable to announce that matter. Apart from that, he didn't say any obvious threatening words. With Xu Shi's experience, it was impossible to give someone a handle. .

"You said Fang Yun is rampant, but has he ever ridiculed others throughout the county?"

Ji Zhibai is speechless.

"Since he has resolved the siege on food prices, he will naturally win this battle with you."

Ji Zhibai hurriedly said: "But the Nongdian helped him too much! The great scholar personally spoke to help, and Yunlou appeared, and the power he used was dozens or hundreds of times more than ours."

"You can also ask other great scholars to come forward, and you can also ask other holy objects to come." Liu Shan's tone was the same as usual, as if he was just chatting with students.

Ji Zhibai was choked so much that he thought to himself that if he could invite a great scholar or a holy object to come, why would he go around in such a big circle to raise the price of food in Ning'an County.

"He used his own strength to get the support of the Agricultural Palace. It was an upright method. I am afraid that on the first day when food prices increased, he had already thought of a way to deal with it." Liu Shan said.

Ji Zhibai said helplessly: "Teacher, you can't let other people's ambitions destroy your own prestige. Fang Yun is our enemy after all."

"It is precisely because Fang Yun is our enemy that we must recognize his true strength. How can we defeat him if we belittle him like you do?"

"This is what my teacher taught me." Ji Zhibai bowed his head helplessly.

"What other plans do you have?" Liu Shan asked.

Ji Zhibai shook his head and said, "Fang Yun is too cunning. I'm afraid no one can beat him in the five subjects of literature, medicine, construction, agriculture and prison. He has a good chance of winning in the remaining education subject. We can only hinder him in the four aspects of history, official administration, people's livelihood and military affairs. But forgive my ignorance. If even this grain disaster can't lower his rating, I have no means to stop him. In fact... I have means, but if I use them, I'm afraid the three semi-saint examiners will not let me go."

"So, have you given up?"

Ji Zhibai said helplessly, "Even if I give up, Fang Yun is too magical. Even if I get the help of many officials, it will be difficult to stop him."

Liu Shan got up from the chair and looked out the window.

"Master will go to the Dragon Palace in the West Sea for a few days. You should keep a low profile these days and don't show up, otherwise Fang Yun's counterattack may affect you."

"Counterattack? He has already humiliated Geng Ge. Isn't the counterattack enough?" Ji Zhibai asked.

"If that's enough, he's not Fang Yun!" Zuo Xiang said and walked out slowly.

Ji Zhibai was stunned, and suddenly a look of ecstasy appeared on his face. He shouted, "Master, are you going to do it yourself? Are you going to the West Sea Dragon Palace for Fang Yun?"

Liu Shan said, "I went to the West Sea Dragon Palace to ask for some divine objects, which has nothing to do with Fang Yun."

"Yes, yes, yes... Master is right." Ji Zhibai laughed, and then said, "The West Sea Dragon Saint turned into a human body to rob the blood of the ancestor dragon, which has long been known to everyone. Later, it was heard that the East Sea Dragon Palace went to the West Sea to borrow divine objects to save Fang Yun, but was rejected by the West Sea Dragon Saint. Later, at Fang Yun's auction, the West Sea Dragon Clan made a scene at the venue. What's more, the West Sea Dragon Clan has been close to the Lei family recently. Fang Yun and the West Sea Dragon Clan are like water and fire. You and Fang Xusheng are both Jing people, so you must be careful."

"Yes." Liu Shan said.

Ji Zhibai was extremely happy watching Liu Shan leave, and turned his head to look in the direction of Ji County.

"Since the mentor has come personally, you are done!"
