In the eighteenth year of Zhenguan, Li Jue, who transmigrated and became the son of the废太子 (cancelled crown prince) Li Chengqian, secretly returned to the longed-for Chang'an from Qianzho...
"Brother, you're taking my money to do things for me..."
Wang Hui was increasingly pleased to hear this. Not only did he invite Li Jue to have a meal at the county government office, but he also gave him the notes he had used in his early years when he was studying for the imperial examinations.
"Brother, I have nothing of value except the notes I kept when I was seeking fame and fortune!"
"Although it's not worth much money, if you're interested in going in, you can take a look around and perhaps gain some new insights!"
"this……"
Li Jue gets a headache just looking at books. He wonders if Wang Hui is also a time traveler from the future, the kind of guy who delivers exercise books to elementary school students.
"Thank you very much, Magistrate Wang!"
"Brother, I will study diligently day and night when I get home, and I will not let Brother Wang down!"
Li Jue returned home after a hearty meal and drinks. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Master Yu leading an unfamiliar old man, squatting against the wall eating oil-splashed noodles.
"Miss Zhang, please add plenty of garlic and chopped celery!"
"Hey, you're back?"
"Have you eaten yet? Let me tell you, the oil-splashed noodles that Miss Zhang made today were delicious! I ate three big bowls! Hahaha!"
Li Jue had long known that Yuchi Jingde was a good-for-nothing; ever since Yuchi Jingde came to teach him kung fu, his family had gone without even three bags of flour.
"Master Yu, who is this...?"
"This gentleman...this is Old Wood, you can just call him Master Wood!"
"Master Mu?"
"You're also the master that Old Man Li invited for me?"
Li Jing was enjoying his meal when he heard this, so he quickly gave a vague reply.
I guess so!
"However, I did not agree. I only said that I would teach you for a few days first and see if you are promising. If you are a promising talent, I might accept you as my disciple!"
"Oh……"
Upon hearing the old man's arrogant tone, Li Jue immediately lost interest and shouted something directly towards the kitchen.
"Aunt Zhang, give me a bowl too!"
"Okay!"
Before long, Li Jue also squatted down by the wall, eating noodles, with a large bowl in his hand.
At this point, Li Jing had finally eaten half his fill. Seeing Li Jue squatting beside him, he couldn't help but ask with a smile.
"What happened to the case in the end?"
"It's pretty much the same as what was said in the main hall, except that Magistrate Wang also said that the Princess's residence is not to be trifled with, and told me not to pursue the matter any further."
What are you thinking?
"What can I, a junior, think? With my weak arms and legs, would I really dare to go toe-to-toe with the Princess's residence?"
Li Jing nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this. If Li Jue really disregarded everything and went head-to-head with the people from the princess's residence, he would definitely leave after he had eaten his fill.
The art of war emphasizes the strategy of maneuvering and maneuvering.
If Li Jue doesn't even have this much shrewdness, how can he be qualified to learn his military strategy?
"Kid, you can start learning from me now!"
"What?"
Li Jue was immediately displeased upon hearing this. Who was this guy, acting all high and mighty?
"May I ask what skills you possess that make you worthy of being my master?"
