If the sect doesn't accept geniuses, they will become giants once they leave?

Chapter 237: The Ink in My Stomach Is Running Out

"You are... Marquis Bahuang's youngest son? The little guy who's been causing all the commotion in Baidi City lately?"

Li Yanmo naturally recognized the young man in front of him, but if he acted too familiar, that would be too much, so Li Yanmo pondered for a moment before laughing with interest.

"Why, you're going to step on me too."

"Sir, you're joking. Emperor Yu has already issued an edict that Princess Yao will be expelled from Baidi City today. I thought I should be able to meet you here. I didn't expect my luck to be so bad."

Li Lin always maintained a humble attitude, and his words and actions were elegant and polite, but this aroused Li Yanmo's suspicion.

It is normal for the monks in the sect to be so reserved.

It is normal for the Prince of Guizhou to do so.

But no one on the side of the commoner marquis should know his identity as Tianxu Tower.

Now Li Lin has reached the foundation-building stage, and Li Yanmo does not use artificial golden elixir. The cultivation levels of both parties are the same, and there is no awe between them in terms of cultivation levels.

This Li Lin even called himself a student.

"I don't remember having a student like you. Master Li, please just say what you want to say," Li Yanmo crossed his arms over his chest, thinking about his recent behavior, looking for any flaws.

But after thinking about it, Li Yanmo still couldn't find anything missing.

The spells in the mine cave were all prepared by Shen Ziqing. He knew better than anyone how cautious his second disciple was, so the problem definitely could not have occurred in the mine cave.

"Mr. Li, I have a question that I don't understand. I hope you can help me solve it."

"Go ahead."

"Who should students serve, the emperor or the common people?"

Li Yanmo raised his eyes slightly, as if smiling, "If the emperor doesn't care about the people and asks you this question again, how will you answer?"

"I...will answer truthfully. Everything I have learned throughout my life is for the benefit of the common people," Li Lin replied after a slight hesitation.

"Since you already have the answer in your mind, why are you still confused?" Li Yanmo was a little confused.

It’s not that he dislikes this literary way of asking and answering, but the problem is that he doesn’t have much ink in his head, and if he continues, he will run out of ink.

“Maybe it’s because the students’ hearts aren’t right, so they have concerns.”

"Then set your heart right."

"I don't know...how can I set my heart right?" Li Lin looked up, his expression nervous.

"Don't keep saying you're doing it for the people. If you keep talking about unattainable goals, you'll lose respect for them. Losing respect is a terrible thing."

"It allows you to unconsciously take that goal into your own hands and use it as a weapon to attack and demean others."

Li Yanmo was running out of ink, but he couldn't just smile and leave, so he had to attack in plain language.

"Of course, the worst thing is that you try to take shortcuts, like..."

"I feel that all the problems of the people in the world are caused by the emperor. If I replace the emperor and become the emperor myself, I can bring benefits to the people and then immerse myself in my own feelings."

"If you truly want to serve the people, then remember to seek your position and fulfill your responsibilities, starting with your own. The countless people of Dayu have their own unique names. Although there are some with the same name, no one is called the common people, and no one is called the common people of the world."

Li Lin's eyes widened slightly, and he nodded respectfully, "Teacher, I will definitely keep your teachings in mind."

At this moment, a sharp and harsh scream came from the Yao family.

"Dad! Mom! How can we just let this go like this! Go and report to His Majesty and ask Him to withdraw the imperial edict! I'm a princess. How am I going to live with this imperial edict?" "Nonsense! What do you think the court is?"

"If you don't leave now, I'll pretend you're not my daughter!"

It seems that Yao Mengyi has already started acting. Got to say, she is quite dedicated to her job.

Li Lin glanced in the direction of the Yao family, smiled thoughtfully, and bowed to Li Yanmo, "I will not disturb you any longer, sir. Goodbye—"

After watching Li Lin go away, Li Yanmo pushed the door of Yao's house open a crack and slipped in.

In the courtyard, Yao Mengyi, who was shouting that she would never leave, was holding her luggage and walking towards the carriage with a ferocious look on her face. The Yao couple, who were calling her "nonsense" and "they didn't treat her as if she were their daughter", were holding Yao Mengyi's legs and waist to prevent her from leaving.

"My daughter, please, go talk to His Majesty and make a scene. Just let your father stay in Baidi City, but send your mother away too! This Baidi City is so boring. All I can do every day is play palace battles with the Empress!"

"Nonsense! Husband and wife share the same hardships! If you leave... I'll leave too!"

The servants of the Yao family all stood aside, feeling mixed emotions, not knowing who to help.

Li Yanmo stood in front of the door, raised his hand, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

When Yao Mengyi saw Li Yanmo appear, her eyes lit up. Just as she was about to call for help, she was pressed down by the Yao couple on the left and right. The Yao couple, who had been haunting Yao Mengyi like vengeful ghosts, also haunted Li Yanmo.

"Master Li! Master Li! Could you please go and talk to His Majesty? My daughter has gotten into such a terrible situation because I, as her father, failed to teach her well. My daughter is still young and can't endure hardship, so could you please exile me instead?"

"Master Li! Master Li and me! It's because I indulged my daughter too much that she became like this! Don't you think this is a great excuse? It can deal a heavy blow to the nobles!"

Faced with the Yao couple's persistence, Li Yanmo's scalp tingled, and Yao Mengyi was so anxious that tears were almost coming out.

Fortunately, Li Yanmo finally held on, and the Yao couple had no choice but to let him go. Only then did he return to normal.

"Ahem—Mr. Li, my daughter... can survive as long as she has food and water. She doesn't have any hobbies. Giving her a ball of yarn is enough for her to play with all day long."

Mother Yao coughed, and her words, as if describing a pet cat, attracted Yao Mengyi's resentful gaze.

"However, Master Li, if you find it troublesome, you can also leave my daughter in Baidi City."

Yao Mengyi's eyes instantly cleared, and harmless little white spots began to appear all over her body.

"Hahahaha - no trouble, no trouble," Li Yanmo said embarrassedly, waving his hands repeatedly.

"Master Li, although my daughter is only at the Qi training stage... oh, she's already at the foundation building stage. Even though she's only at the foundation building stage and may not be of much use, she can at least serve tea and water. After all, she's a criminal. Master Li..."

Yao's father wanted to say something in a flowery way, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was quite hypocritical. After all, everyone present was his own family, and they knew each other well, so there was no need for them to understand. So he spoke frankly with clear eyes.

"When I think about how I have to deal with all sorts of things here while my daughter can do whatever she wants, it makes me feel heartbroken. Please, please let my daughter do something."

Yao's mother also nodded repeatedly.

Yao Mengyi was so angry that she gritted her teeth, but the difference in their cultivation was too great.

Li Yanmo made repeated assurances and finally calmed down the resentment of the Yao couple.
