Chapter Thirty-Four: The Vengeful Gentleman

  "Hum! You wait for me, I won't let you off!" Du Tai also had no choice but to utter a ruthless remark to save face. As for his threat, Li Yunfei directly chose to ignore it, this kind of petty attitude was no different from those street rascals!

  "Yunfei, you need to be careful around this person. As the saying goes, 'it's easy to dodge a spear in the open but hard to guard against arrows shot in the dark.' I know you might not be afraid when things are out in the open, but what if someone is secretly plotting against you?!" Li Qing saw Li Yunfei's nonchalant expression and couldn't help but sigh softly. There's a saying that goes 'it's better to offend a gentleman than a petty person.' The way Yunfei is acting now makes it easy for others to secretly take advantage of him.

  "Don't worry! I don't even put that kind of person in my eyes, besides, he also needs to be brave enough!" Li Yunfei smiled and glanced at Du Tian, who had a pale face, then sat down in the empty seat next to Li Qingxu, waiting for the teacher's arrival. To be honest, he was both looking forward to and somewhat apprehensive about ancient teaching methods. Having studied for over ten years in the future, Li Yunfei already had a kind of fear!

  "No need to be so nervous, with Brother Yunfei's talent, there's no need to be afraid, maybe he'll even get praised by the teacher! Li Qingchu still admired Li Yunfei's talent, but how could he know that Li Yunfei had only those tricks up his sleeve, and if he used them all up, it would indeed feel a bit like Jiang Lang's exhaustion!"

  "Haha! Qing Shu brother, why would I be nervous? I just have some feelings, and I don't know what kind of person our teacher is. In my opinion, those learned people should have a big beard, wrinkles all over their face, and an air of dignity!" Li Yunfei found the wait before class to be really torturous, so he couldn't help but share his thoughts about the old teacher with Li Qing Shu!

  "It's not like that, our master is not what you imagined, although he has a beard, but he's absolutely not old!" Li Qing originally still admired Li Yunfei's imagination, but when she looked at the door, who else could it be if not her own master? It's worth noting that Master is someone who pays great attention to his appearance, and most literary men are this kind of person who would rather die than lose face.

  "How could that be? Those who can become the children of these princes and ministers must have a lot of knowledge, right!" Li Yunfei seemed to have gotten himself into a paradox. Of course, most of it was influenced by later generations' movies. Which of those great scholars who could teach wasn't someone who had entered the earth quickly?

  "This is for sure! Who would let him teach if he didn't have any knowledge?" Li Qing Shu said, but her eyes kept winking at Li Yun Fei, making hints. It made her already pretty face look even more lovely!

  "What's wrong with you? Are you having a facial spasm or something? Do you think what I'm saying is also very reasonable!" Li Yunfei was completely unaware that the room had become very quiet at this moment, and he was already immersed in his own fantasy world! "Think about it, to thoroughly understand a book, how much time does it take? Ten years of hard study? Is that enough? Of course not. So, how many people can be called great scholars? Our teacher, well, that's a given, must be a great scholar, otherwise he wouldn't be teaching us. Therefore, I think our teacher is an old fool, and this isn't excessive, right?"

  Li Yunfei thought he had said something really good, and unexpectedly found that he had the potential to become a debater. At this time, if someone handed him a cup of fragrant tea, it would be even better! However, he didn't notice that Li Qingxu's gaze towards him had changed. Li Yunfei was the first person to dare say such words in front of his teacher, and what he said was exactly what the teacher hated most - being told that he was old.

  "Is that so? According to you, aren't those so-called geniuses just a bunch of old guys on the verge of collapse?" A deep voice sounded from behind Li Yunfei, and what surprised Li Qing was that this time, Mr. didn't get angry, but instead had a hint of a smile. This was something Li Qing had never seen before, as all these students had suffered under his strict teaching. But now, he was being so friendly to Li Yunfei, which made Li Qing feel quite uncomfortable - what's the difference between people, anyway?

  "It's not entirely accurate to say that, is it? There will inevitably be some geniuses who appear once in a hundred or thousand years, and their growth can't be measured by ordinary standards." Li Yunfei had a deep understanding of this, for example, the great poets Li Bai and Tang Yin who were passed down through the ages were indeed geniuses among geniuses!

  "For example, the sixth prince of the current emperor, now the King of Qin! Are you saying that? Our King of Qin!" A deep voice rose again, but this time it was Li Yunfei who was surprised. He hastily turned around and found a man in his forties smiling at him, and he must be talking to himself!

  "You must be our teacher, I apologize for the student's reckless words earlier, please don't blame us!" Li Yunfei forced a bitter smile, not expecting that the main person had already arrived, and still without making any noise.

  "What's wrong with the King of Qin? I've read your excellent works, and as for the King of Qin's talent, I'm truly inferior. In the past, I underestimated the people of the world! Now that Your Majesty values me and lets me teach here, I feel ashamed to accept this title of 'Mr.' from the King of Qin. From now on, we should learn together!" This guy is really stubborn, not only did he pay respects to Li Yunfei as if he were a junior, but also referred to himself as a student. Upon hearing his words, Li Yunfei couldn't help but smile wryly, it seems that this time, he really can't avoid becoming famous no matter what.

  On the first day of class, Mr. Nangong bowed to his students and took a humble attitude, not because of his status, but because he considered himself a student. In fact, this Mr. was very proud, Li Shimin asked him several times to enter the court as an official, but he refused, saying that he was tired of the intrigue in the officialdom and it was better to live in a thatched cottage and read books every day. After several attempts, Li Shimin had no choice but to let him teach these young nobles, this time he agreed, but the condition was that everyone must listen to him.

  Although this gentleman has a very strange temper, his true talent and learning are certain. Many people flock to send their children to class, which is also the reason why these people fear him. He doesn't care whose child you are, if you're wrong, he'll scold you, and many people can't stand it halfway and drop out of school!

  Today was Li Yunfei's first day of class, and yet he was already speaking ill of him behind his back. Not only did the gentleman not take offense, but he even treated him with extra courtesy, truly beyond everyone's expectations. What's more surprising is Li Yunfei's identity - unexpectedly, he turned out to be Qin Wang, the prince who has been making waves recently, and even Li Qing couldn't help but widen her beautiful eyes in shock.

  Du Ke's face turned even greener, thinking about the harsh words he had spoken earlier. No wonder the other person was looking at him with a teasing gaze and didn't take him seriously. After all, his family was just a servant to others, so why would they care about him? At this moment, everyone was mocking Du Ke, the previous words still echoing in their ears, as if the roles had been reversed, and now it was Du Ke who should be worried!

  "Sir is really giving the student a lift, and the student is ashamed to accept it! In the future, if there's anything wrong with the student, please forgive me!" Li Yunfei wiped the sweat from his forehead. This teacher was indeed good at setting difficult problems! Was this an indirect revenge? Li Yunfei noticed a glimmer of sharpness in the teacher's eyes and thought to himself in confusion.
