My father is a Confucian sage, but the system forces me to be a crude warrior

Chapter 364 Second Master?
Upon hearing this, Zeng Anmin's heart sank.

He knew that Bai Ziqing dared to say those words because he absolutely intended to kill him.

Sima Nan, don't be ungrateful.

"Hmph! Do you, Bai Ziqing, not know whether I'm spouting nonsense or not?"

"The last case that Xiang Tidu investigated before his death was related to your Bai family!"

Sima Nan showed no fear on his face. He raised his neck, exposing his neck:

"If you want my life, take it. But even if I die, I will expose the filth of your Bai family..."

He hasn't finished speaking yet.

Then a sharp glint flashed in Bai Ziqing's eyes.

"You deserve to die!"

Bai Ziqing's voice rang out coldly.

"Ding!!"

The next moment, the White Frost Sword in his hand emitted an extremely sharp, cold light!

"Spare his life!"

Zeng Anmin couldn't care less about anything else at that moment.

A flash of light appeared from the device at the waist.

His body was flashing with red light.

His body had already leaped onto the life-or-death arena!
What went up there?
Everyone just felt a blur before their eyes.

Then they saw that there was another person on the stage.

Dongfang Sheng, however, had been following Zeng Anmin the whole time. He was a little numb when he saw Zeng Anmin leap onto the ring.

No matter what, Zeng Anmin was his superior.

If he were to suffer humiliation here and remain indifferent, he would have no face to show his face when he returned to the Southern Capital.

"Zeng Tidu, you...you mustn't act impulsively..."

Dongfang Shengren was terrified.

Didn't you yourself say that Bai Ziqing is not someone to be trifled with?
How did you get up there?
If anyone's going up, it should be me...

"Bai Tidu, spare his life!"

"Sima Nan, you can kill him if you want, but you can't touch Zeng Tidu!"

Dongfang Sheng ran all the way, shouting for mercy as he ran.

Sima Nan: ...

However, when Dongfang Sheng ran to the front and back of the arena, his expression suddenly froze.

Huh?
Why didn't Bai Ziqing make a move?
Then he heard a sudden, resounding thud:

"Second Master!"

Ok?
Second Master?

Who is it?

Dongfang Sheng's face showed a look of bewilderment.

He looked around.

All the grapes in the courtyard were looking towards the stage.

On stage...

There were only three people.

One is Sima Nan, a person from the Southern Capital Bureau; it's definitely not called him.

Bai Ziqing... should be called "Grandpa," and it's definitely not him.

That means there's only one person left...

Zeng Tidu? ??
Dongfang Sheng's eyes widened in disbelief.

He stared intently at Zeng Anmin's retreating figure.

"Quan Fudi?"

Bai Ziqing was slightly taken aback when he saw Zeng Anmin step onto the stage.

He quickly sheathed his sword, then pulled Zeng Anmin behind him without saying a word, and looked warily at Sima Nan on the ground.

"This guy is crazy. Get behind me quickly, or he might accidentally hurt you."

Anyone could see that she cared about Zeng Anmin.

Uh.

Dongfang Sheng's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when he saw this.

Bai Ziqing, that's him!
The Bai family is currently the most powerful maternal relatives in the world!

Moreover, Bai Ziqing is a martial arts genius, known as the number one swordsman in the capital.

He is deeply favored by His Majesty.

He knew that Zeng Anmin had originally served as the chief clerk in the Northern Metropolitan Court.

But he always felt that Zeng Anmin was at most just a subordinate of Bai Ziqing.

What is Bai Ziqing's background?
The second-largest family in the world today!

What about Zeng Anmin?

Although the Zeng family enjoys a high reputation now, in the end, it is only Zeng Shilin who carries it all.

Dongfang Sheng didn't even dare to blink, his eyes fixed on Zeng Anmin.

He was afraid of missing something...

…………

"Uh……"

Zeng Anmin was pulled behind Bai Ziqing, and he gently patted Bai Ziqing's shoulder:

"Brother Bai, the reason I came to Beitidu Academy today is because of him."

As he spoke, he pointed to Sima Nan, who was lying on the ground.

At the same time, his brows furrowed.

Both are fourth-rank martial artists. The difference in martial arts prowess between Sima Nan and Bai Ziqing is too great.

"for him?"

Bai Ziqing's face froze.

He then blinked, his eyes filled with confusion.

Then he looked at Sima Nan on the ground and asked:
"You know Quan Fudi?"

Sima Nan was the most confused at this moment.

He looked at Zeng Anmin with a blank expression.

He looked Zeng Anmin up and down.

"do not know."

He shook his bald head decisively.

? ?
Bai Ziqing's face showed even more confusion.

He looked at Zeng Anmin with a puzzled expression.

"To be honest, we didn't know each other before today."

Zeng Anmin shrugged and continued:

"But we'll be spending every day together from now on."

"what happened?"

Bai Ziqing was stunned.

You should know that I was the top scholar in the imperial examination, right?

Zeng Anmin looked at Bai Ziqing and asked.

"I know." Bai Ziqing smiled upon hearing this and patted Zeng Anmin on the shoulder.
"I told you long ago, how could a mere illusion array examination possibly stop you?"

"Yes." Zeng Anmin wasn't embarrassed at all; he nodded readily and said:
"Then I became the new Imperial City Commander."

???

Bai Ziqing was momentarily stunned, then his expression changed:
"you??"

"It's become Nantidu??"

"Replacement guaranteed."

Zeng Anmin shrugged.

After he said that, no one thought much of it.

Dongfang Sheng's expression changed slightly in the audience.

His heart sank suddenly.

In officialdom, no matter how good the relationship between colleagues is, there are still vested interests involved.

Zeng Anmin was originally the chief clerk of the Northern Metropolitan Court. No matter how good their relationship was, it must have been based on mutual interests.

But now Zeng Anmin is the Southern Commander, and is naturally in competition with the Northern Commander...

Sima Nan is definitely not going to make it this time.

What Sima Nan just said was, at the very least, utter nonsense.

To put it bluntly, that would be slandering the current Empress!
Even if you kill him, nothing will happen to Bai Ziqing.

……

"That's great!!"

Bai Ziqing's face lit up with joy, and he stared at Zeng Anmin, saying:

"I thought you were going to be sent out of Beijing!"

"I never expected it to still be in the capital!!"

"Ha ha!!"

"Tonight, I'll treat you to drinks!!"

The joy on Bai Ziqing's face was definitely not faked.

Ah? ? ?
Dongfang Sheng was dumbfounded when he saw this scene.

Bai Ziqing's reaction was, in his eyes, nothing short of a sun exploding.

How come this is... completely the opposite of what he imagined??

…………

"So, it's all a misunderstanding."

After Zeng Anmin finished explaining everything, he and Bai Ziqing left the arena together.

Sima Nan, a nine-foot-tall man, was left looking bewildered as he touched his bald head.

"Dongfang, this Zeng fellow..."

He stared blankly at Dongfang Sheng below the stage.

"Don't call yourself Zeng! If it weren't for Zeng Tidu today, even if Bai Ziqing killed you, you would only be able to go to the King of Hell to complain."

Dongfang Sheng glared at Sima Nan with annoyance:

"Tell me, when are you going to change this reckless nature?"

…………

After Zeng Anmin and Bai Ziqing went to the brothel.

Bai Ziqing took a deep breath and looked intently at Zeng Anmin:
"Brother Quan, there were a lot of people outside just now..."

"You have to save me!"

"Xiang Wangxian's case, right?"

Zeng Anmin looked at Bai Ziqing intently.

“Yes!” Bai Ziqing nodded hurriedly.

“No problem, I’ll check!” Zeng Anmin’s gaze turned serene.

He never expected that this case would involve the Bai family.
