Chapter 227 Chapter 226: Seeking a Future for a Disciple

General Chen was stunned by the question and looked at her with confusion.

An Xin smiled, knowing that some things were not suitable to be discussed in the yard, so he extended his hand and made a gesture of invitation, leading General Chen into the academy in the front yard.

It is unknown what the two people talked about in the academy. When General Chen left, he bowed deeply to An Xin, with excitement and gratitude in his eyes.

Doesn’t General Chen know that his son is too smart but not heroic enough and is not fit to be a general?

Not necessarily.

But it is a fact that it is difficult for the descendants of military generals to become civil servants.

According to General Chen, if his son Chen Qibao didn't want to be a military general, what else could he do in the future?

But he didn't expect that An Xin's words would make him realize that they, the rough people, were not as smart as the literati like An Xin.

Who says you can’t be a civil servant? You must go to the battlefield to fight for your future.

No one knew how An Xin operated, and soon after, Chen Qibao was arranged to be a royal guard in the palace.

He also became the leader of the fourth-class guards and the captain of the sixth-rank blue-feather guards.

According to An Xin at the time, this was the only way to live up to the title of her student.

When Chen Qibao's mother heard that her son didn't have to go to the battlefield and could have a good future, she was so happy that she burst into tears and almost made An Xin into a tablet.

Her husband fought hard all his life before he became the fourth-rank General of Anbei.

If his son is lucky and works harder, he can become the commander of the imperial guards, but he is a third-rank official. He is still young, so this position is not unimaginable.

The most important thing is that this position can only be held by the person most trusted by the emperor. Even the powerful ministers of the aristocratic families dare not offend him easily. It is much better than being a general on the battlefield.

If one's military achievements are small, he will be promoted slowly; if his achievements are great, he will be afraid of ending up being too successful and causing trouble for his lord.

The Chen family was very happy that An Xin could arrange Chen Qibao, whose personality was not suitable for being a general, to this position. They were also glad that they did not look down on An Xin because she was a woman and did not prevent their son from worshipping her as his teacher.

Otherwise, even though Chen Gang was a fourth-rank general of Anbei, he did not have the ability to easily arrange his son into such a special position as the imperial guard in front of the emperor today.

The Chen family can't even be a small leader who is not bullied by others.

Emperor Sheng An was sitting in the imperial study, holding a blueprint of a thresher in his hand, and he sighed that this Chief An Xiaoshan was truly an all-round talent.

He used this to ask for a position as a royal guard for his student. "Oh! Did I gain or lose money?"

How can such a tool that benefits the country and the people, and can help people easily remove grains, be comparable to a small position of captain of the guards?

It seems that she offered this up intentionally to ask for a job for her student, and it was just a by-product. She is truly a woman with a sense of righteousness.

An Xin: "…" Old Emperor, you think too much.

So An Xin, you are a real dog.

Because of her actions, it seemed to outsiders that she had found a good job for her student without any effort.

This made the Prime Minister's people even more wary of her.

Even during this period, when An Xin was on his way to and from the Imperial College, flower pots and teapots would inexplicably fall from the sky. When he passed by a restaurant, drunkards, whether they were really drunk or pretending to be drunk, would throw down all kinds of tables, chairs and benches.

If it weren't for An Xin's agility, he would have been seduced by some ghost and reincarnated into another life.

It’s just that Li Ziyu has been granted an imperial decree and is about to set off to inspect the affairs of various provinces.

This was also the opportunity given to him by Emperor Sheng An, who wanted to train Li Ziyu and reserve talents for him to become his son's right-hand man in the future.

An Xin didn't want to make Li Ziyu worry, so she kept silent about what happened to her.

The weather was sunny today, a good time for traveling.

Outside the capital, Li Ziyu was dressed in a purple official uniform. He had a tall and straight figure, which made him look even more handsome and extraordinary, and also had a hint of majesty.

He looked at the people who were seeing him off calmly, and said in a calm tone: "Go back, otherwise the sun will rise higher and it will be difficult to travel."

Jiang Zhou stared at him and said, "I'll just have to come and see you off."

Leng Xiangbai still understood Li Ziyu. He walked closer and said something, and Li Ziyu's originally tense expression relaxed a little.

Barely audible: "Take good care of her."

"If those who secretly attack still don't know how to restrain themselves, we will let the people we trained come out and take those people out to train their skills."

Leng Xiangbai smoothed a strand of hair that fell from his temples and raised the corners of his lips coldly: "Don't worry, I will."

The two looked at each other, and everything was said without words.

An Xin didn't want to make them worry, but the capital city was so small, how could he hide the fact that An Xin was attacked by some people?

It's just that she didn't say anything, and the others pretended not to know.

An Rui and Liu Boxing walked towards the senior brother whose aura was becoming increasingly cold, with deep reluctance in their eyes.

Li Ziyu softened his expression and patted their shoulders. "Take good care of the family and wait for me to come back."

This time, Yuchi Yi, Jiang Chenxi, Chen Qibao and Gao Tai also came.

The four younger disciples looked at the usually cold eldest disciple, and were frightened by the sharp eyes he turned towards them.

"The senior brother seems to be even scarier than the female teacher." Chen Qibao muttered with his heart trembling.

Jiang Zhou rolled his eyes at them and complained: "How can someone who climbed to this position so quickly be a good person?"

The four little ones subconsciously wanted to nod in agreement, but when they met Li Ziyu's glance, they immediately shut their mouths wisely.

Whoever wants to provoke such an unloving senior brother can do so, but they can’t afford to offend him anyway.

Li Ziyu said in a deep voice: "If I hear that there are so many people in the court attacking and impeaching her again, I will treat you to a feast when I come back."

"This is to plot against him to death." Jiang Zhou was silent for a moment, but this time he didn't say anything. He nodded and said, "I understand."

If it weren't for the pressure from his own head of the mountain last time, he would never have allowed those bastards to attack her and just let them do it.

Li Ziyu walked to An Xin who was standing with her hands behind her back, looked at her for a moment with a cold yet gentle expression, opened his mouth, and finally turned around and walked towards the carriage he was riding in without saying anything.

An Xin felt lost as he watched the huge group of inspectors disappear at the end of the road.

Thinking that it was A Jing who left last time, and this time it was Tzuyu who left. She turned her head and looked at the people around her, wondering who would be the next one.

Leng Xiangbai noticed that An Xin was staring at them blankly, and found that there was depression in her eyes. He wanted to raise his hand to comfort her, but felt it was inappropriate.

Looking at the rising sun, he said, "Let's go back."

"Well, let's go back." An Xin turned and walked towards the carriage and sat in it without saying anything more.
