Chapter 176 A good general possesses all three qualities



Feng Yin was drunk, so Xiao Li asked someone to send him back and asked about Feng Yu.

Feng Yu knelt down and begged Master Feng to spare He Changyu, and even wanted to marry him even if it meant breaking off their relationship.

If Master Feng refused to agree, she would kneel down and refuse to get up, as if she was determined to fight Master Feng to the end.

After Madam Feng's persuasion failed, she directly cut off the source of the problem. She used the two children as a bargaining chip to negotiate conditions with Feng Yu. Either she divorced He Changyu, or she would have the two concubines beaten to death.

I heard that the effect was immediate and they are now signing the divorce papers.

Xiao Li laughed sarcastically. This guy is just a scoundrel.

It’s not that Xiao Li can’t stand other people having a good relationship, but He Changyu is clearly an extremely hypocritical hypocrite.

They say he is a good man who loves his wife, but look at what he does. He just talks and shows his love to Fengyu regardless of the occasion. He does all this just to establish his image as a loving wife, without caring about other people's feelings.

The He family is not as good as the Feng family. He Changyu got his official position with the help of the Taifu. The dowry that the Feng family gave to Feng Yu was enough to support her until she died.

What He Changyu does most is to pretend to be a loving wife in front of others, but it is said that Feng Yu personally prepares the footbath water for him at home.

In a word: I did nothing, just bragging!

Feng Yu felt that she owed her loving husband because everyone knew that He Changyu loved her, but she couldn't give birth to a child for him. She unconsciously put herself in a very humble position. She was completely PUAed.

Madam Feng is quite smart, so how could she raise Feng Yu to be so stupid?

Especially before, the whole Feng family praised He Changyu highly.

The filters used by these Feng fathers to collect corpses are really thick.

But after all, it was someone else's family business, and Xiao Li was too lazy to care about it. She hadn't finished her own business yet.

Tomorrow is the banquet for talented scholars, so she needs to have a good rest to be refreshed.

When I was about to go back to the house to sleep, I passed by a corner and saw Hongyue and Rong Qing standing together and talking.

Rong Qing stood tall and straight, his face tense and expressionless, while Hongyue's face was full of apology and concern.

Xiao Li just took a look and walked past as if nothing had happened.

Xiao Li didn't say anything that night, but Rong Qing hired ten sticks and beat him in front of all the guards.

Xiao Li didn't say anything, and no one dared to plead for mercy.

Rong Qing is different from Hong Yue. He knows very well what kind of master he follows.

He has been in the army for many years and knows that military orders are as heavy as mountains. Now as the princess's guard, he can only obey her orders no matter what the situation. Without her order, he must not move away. This is his duty.

Lou Yan is not the princess's husband, and he can't even be considered her lover.

Even if Hongyue begged, he shouldn't have let Lou Yan in without orders.

Something was not right with Xiao Li. He should have gone in to check it out himself instead of letting others in.

He knew where he was wrong and that he deserved to be punished, so he willingly accepted the punishment and was caned in public as a warning to others.

As for Hongyue, none of the ten blows from Rong Qing's sticks landed on her, but it was enough to teach her a lesson.

In fact, Xiao Li had no intention of punishing Rong Qing from the beginning. After all, it was not his fault. He was also influenced by Hong Yue.

And the main person was Lou Yan, and because of a little bit of his special characteristics, it affected their judgment.

But the fact that Rong Qing asked for punishment himself made Xiao Li think more highly of him.

A subordinate with a simple mind and strong martial arts skills is naturally useful, but she needs more than just a warrior.

A good general must possess strength, loyalty, and wisdom.

On the day of the Talented Scholars Banquet, a long line formed in front of the princess's mansion as soon as the sky got light.

As early as two days ago, Xiao Li had people publicize the selection model of the Talent Banquet through major teahouses and book clubs.

Use the flyer distribution model to clearly write down all the processes.

The bold words above it read "Talented Scholar Banquet", not "Husband Selection Banquet".

We sincerely invite all young talents who are well-read, knowledgeable and good-looking to participate. Note: A hero is not judged by his origin.

There are seven levels in total, each with different content and topics, including literature, arithmetic, ingenuity, architecture, medicine, etc. You need to pass the levels comprehensively to find the piece of gold that shines the most.

Song Junzhan wrote a very flowery notice, which Xiao Li thought was not good enough.

Sometimes plain language is more inspiring than pedantic writing.

I just want to ask you, which talented scholar can refuse such a competition?

There is no need to even mention setting up any awards, the Princess Mansion is famous for being generous with money.

As long as you get a rank, why worry about not getting a reward?

As for the rumors about choosing a husband, for the young men from poor families, Princess Xuanyang’s husband is not a humiliation, he is a ladder to heaven.

Everyone thought that only those scholars from humble and poor families would attend Princess Xuanyang's 'husband selection banquet', but in fact, there were also many children from aristocratic families who came.

One side wears gorgeous clothes and gold, pearls and jade pendants, while the other side wears plain clothes and wooden hairpins.

Without any organization, the two groups separated consciously, leaving a passage in the middle, clearly separating them.

There were many people coming to watch the fun today, but those who were not participating were stopped outside.

As the time was approaching, the children from wealthy families were standing on the side of nearly a hundred people, while the children from poor families, on the other hand, only numbered about sixty or seventy people. They looked a little miserable in front of the arrogant and contemptuous children from wealthy families.

Some children from wealthy families verbally provoked and insulted the children from poor families. Before they could get angry and curse back, the silver-armored guards of the princess's mansion drew their swords.

"The princess has ordered that at the Talented Scholars' Banquet, all participants must refrain from provocative language, belittling or humiliating others, or provoking trouble. Violators will be considered provoking the princess's residence!"
