Watching the words flying out from the book of Haoran Zhengqi above Zhou Dingzeng's head, they turned into real soldiers.

Ning Chen was a little panicked at this moment.

It's not because his poetry is inferior to that of panic, but because Ning Chen doesn't have the righteousness to do so.

But Ning Chen's panic at this moment, in the eyes of the ministers, was a feeling of helpless, anxious and helpless defeat.

"Ning Chen really doesn't care about life and death. He even proposed to compete with Zhou Siye in poetry. Don't you know that Zhou Siye's poetry is rated as the best in the world by even a great scholar like Zuo Xiang?"

"I think Ning Chen knew that he would lose, so he chose Zhou Siye's strongest one as the challenge. This way, even if he loses, it won't be too ugly."

Among the officials, many were jealous that Ning Chen was about to assume real power.

Now that they see Ning Chen being so ignorant and going to die on his own, their hearts are filled with joy.

Zhou Siye looked at the helpless Ning Chen and said with a smile: "Master Ning, seeing that you are young and ignorant, let's just drop this matter."

Hearing what Zhou Siye said, the ministers couldn't help but give Zhou Siye another generous compliment.

But Ning Chen couldn't just let it go.

He must go to the Imperial College to take up his post, and that will complete his mission.

"I didn't say anything, how could we just let it go?" Ning Chen stopped him and said to Zhou Siye who was about to give up.

Zhou Siye stopped and looked at Ning Chen: "Then please ask Master Ning to write a poem?"

Ning Chen turned around and looked around, and finally his eyes were fixed on Sun Kejian: "Master Sun, can you lend me a little, is Haoran upright?"

"Ah, this..."

Sun Kejian was stunned when asked by Ning Chen.

Then the people present remembered that Ning Chen's Confucianism had not yet entered the realm, and there was no aura of righteousness at all, so there was no way to promote the transformation of poetry.

"Ning Chen really doesn't know how to live or die. He doesn't even have Haoran's righteousness, so he has to compete with the seventh-grade Zhou Siye for his poetic talent."

"What do Ning Chen think? He doesn't even have the integrity of Haoran. Is he specifically trying to humiliate Zhou Siye?"

"It's over, now Ning Chen has completely offended Zhou Siye to death!"

"Zhou Siye has countless disciples. Even if His Highness wants to protect Ning Chen, I'm afraid he has to think carefully about it."

…

Sure enough, after Zhou Siye found out that Ning Chen and Haoran were not even upright, he blew his beard and glared on the spot:

"It's ridiculous, it's simply ridiculous. You don't even have the righteousness of Haoran, so you want to compete with me in poetry? Do you mean to humiliate me?"

Ning Chen didn't expect Zhou Siye to be so angry suddenly.

"Don't you know that I'm not a good scholar in Confucianism and Taoism? It's not that I got the top prize in the examination, I have to be a good scholar in Confucianism and Taoism. After all, I'm still young, right?"

The word "young" once again deeply hurt Zhou Siye.

"Today, I must teach you a lesson, you are an arrogant person!" Zhou Siye was furious, and his originally fair cheeks turned red due to congestion.

"Master Sun, please lend me some righteousness." Ning Chen urged Sun Kejian.

Sun Kejian hesitated, but decided to borrow some of Ning Chen's righteousness.

Although borrowing some of Ning Chen's righteousness may offend Zhou Siye.

But if he didn't borrow it, Sun Kejian felt sorry for his conscience.

After all, in a sense, Ning Chen saved the lives of his whole family.

Just when Sun Kejian was about to borrow some of Ning Chen's awe-inspiring spirit, Ning Chen's hand suddenly felt heavy, and a thread-bound book appeared in Ning Chen's hand.

"I'll lend you this, kid, and let me see what amazing masterpiece you can write."

An uninhibited voice came.

Then everyone saw a middle-aged scholar wearing a pure white Confucian shirt, with no beard and extremely well-maintained skin, appearing in the courtyard.

"Master Kong!" After seeing the person coming, Wu Zhao immediately stood up and bowed his hands as a disciple.

Just from Wu Zhao's behavior, we can see how extraordinary the person who came here is.

Although Wu Zhao called Zhou Siye Master Zhou, he was just polite, and even his plump buttocks never left the stool.

But when this person came now, Wu Zhao immediately stood up and saluted.

"Left Prime Minister!"

The rest of the people saluted after Wu Zhao.

This is the left prime minister of that dragon who has neither head nor tail.

The real first civil servant.

Ning Chen searched his memory and found that the original owner had only heard of Zuo Xiang's name, but had never met Zuo Xiang once.

This left prime minister is a being even crazier than Emperor Shun. Emperor Shun returned to Taoism and still went to court every day.

In Ning Chen's memory, this left prime minister had never been here once.

Ning Chen has been the top scholar for almost two years, and this is the first time he has met the left prime minister.

However, although people are crazy, they do have the capital to be crazy.

At a young age, he has achieved the sixth level of Confucianism.

Before reaching the age of Buhuo, he directly reaches the fourth level of Wentian Realm.

In the next thirty years, although there was no progress.

But for a genius like Zuo Xiang, it cannot be measured by normal standards.

Therefore, Zuoxiang is known as the strongest fourth-level player in all systems, and even the third-level player is not a problem.

Everyone knows that it is not impossible for Zuo Xiang to enter the third level.

It's because the left prime minister has been looking for a destiny that he really wants to establish.

Legend has it that over the years, Prime Minister Zuo soon found his destiny.

Once Zuo Xiang establishes his destiny, there will be an invincible third-level realm in the world, and it may even be a second-level realm.

Being invincible to the third level before the age of eighty, maybe even the second level, this is definitely another major event that creates history.

Therefore, everyone in the world knows that there is a fourth-grade scholar in the Great Wu Dynasty who cannot be messed with.

Of course, even if we don’t talk about Zuo Xiang’s abilities in cultivation, it is just his contribution to the Great Wu Dynasty.

No one in the Great Wu Dynasty dared to take care of the left prime minister.

After Zuo Xiang arrived in the mountains and rivers, he suddenly entered the court and became an official.

He directly worshiped the left prime minister, and then began drastic reforms.

Improve the imperial examination system, establish an evaluation system with four criteria and eight methods for officials, and build the Imperial College.

In less than twenty years, the Imperial College has become a holy place in the hearts of students all over the world.

This directly made the Imperial College a Confucian holy place alongside Yunzhong Academy.

It can be said that the left prime minister in the previous government relied entirely on his own efforts.

The Great Wu Dynasty, which was about to collapse in the Great Xia Dynasty, turned things around and created a prosperous age.

Therefore, whatever Zuo Xiang wants to do now, just do it. Even Emperor Shun has no way to deal with Zuo Xiang.

…

Ning Chen flipped through the book in his hand and found that there was not a single word on it.

"What's the use of this thing?" Ning Chen asked the left minister, holding the wordless book in his hand.

Prime Minister Zuo explained: "This is a sage's book, which was born when the Confucian sage ordained it."

"What is the destiny of a saint?" Ning Chen really didn't know about this stuff.

"Back then, the sage made a decree that all students in the world would have literature to study and books to read. Only then did the world have books." Prime Minister Zuo explained to Ning Chen.

This is like the destiny of a saint.

Prime Minister Zuo continued to explain: "The Sage's Book allows Confucian scholars who have not yet entered the Confucian class to use the abilities of the Confucian cultivators when they do not have the awe-inspiring righteousness."

Ning Chen understood, this is the magic book.

"Then... uh, the strength that this sage book can exert cannot exceed the seventh level."

Prime Minister Zuo glanced at Ning Chen: "Do you think I will favor him?"

Ning Chen shook his head: "No, I think you will favor me. I'm afraid that he won't admit defeat when the time comes."

After hearing Ning Chen's words, Prime Minister Zuo couldn't help but chuckle: "Why do you think I will favor you?"

"There is an old saying that big men prefer geniuses." Ning Chen patiently explained to Zuo Xiang.

Although the Prime Minister has never heard of the word "big brother", with his understanding ability, he still understood the meaning of these two words in an instant.

"It's useless to flatter me. I've restricted this sage's book. It won't be used beyond the seventh-grade Haoran righteousness. As for whether you are a genius or not, it depends on your own performance." Zuo said flattering Ning Chen.
