…

On the way from Tieying Martial Arts School to Zhao's house, Wu Xuan finally heard a more detailed story and origin.

Today, the Jiang Dynasty, whose name is "Li", has existed for hundreds of years. All parts of the country still seem to be singing, dancing, and prosperous.

In fact, there are already undercurrents surging, and there are signs of troubled times to come.

Although Qishan City is not a particularly big city, it still has the top class Zhao family...or rather, the top class in the past. The ancestor of the Zhao family was once the teacher of the founding emperor of the Jiang family.

Although the family is in decline now, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and he can always get some secret information.

Just like before heavy rain comes, dragonflies fly low and wait for signs.

In fact, it can be seen from Wu Xuan's living conditions before he started practicing martial arts that the lives of ordinary people in Liguo were very ordinary, and it was rare to smell the smell of meat or oil during festivals.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be hungry for meat dishes.

If a natural or man-made disaster were to completely break this fragile ecological chain at this time, the heroes of troubled times would be like crucian carp crossing the river, countless, trying to reshape the entire ecological chain.

With the general environment and background like this, the Zhao family became interested in force.

In troubled times, only strong force can protect oneself, so family members such as Zhao Zhenyi were sent to join the Iron Eagle Martial Arts School to identify talented children and win them over to the Zhao family.

Zhao Zhenyi and Wu Xuan are just one example. There are people in the surrounding cities and even the countryside who are recruited by the Zhao family for nursing homes.

At this time, Liguo's law prohibits local aristocratic families from raising more than three hundred domestic slaves, so the nursing home is a piece of paper and useless.

Forbidden weapons such as armor, crossbows, salt, iron, etc. are stored in as many contrabands as possible, and they are even made by oneself, opened private mines, etc...

This kind of behavior will speed up the arrival of troubled times.

to be honest.

Wu Xuan was stunned for a moment after hearing this. After all, he had never experienced such troubled times in books. Only a few words such as "Changing children to eat", "Ten rooms and nine empty rooms" gave him a pale shock.

It’s impossible to talk about the signs before the storm, I didn’t feel it at all…

Although he was poor for fourteen years in Wujiagou, he did not starve to death. After deducting taxes from the harvest, he still had enough to eat.

Therefore, Wu Xuan was a little unconvinced.

"Senior Brother Zhao, is what you said true?"

"Of course! Judging from the situation, even if there are no natural or man-made disasters, Li Guo will not be in chaos for long."

"After all, today's Holy Emperor is too extravagant. There are actually three thousand beauties in the harem, and I don't know how many of them are not favored, but they still have to compete for beauty in the world...

In the wine pond and the meat forest, we play and sing every night, and we have ignored the government affairs for a long time."

"Junior Brother Wu, I know you have read few books, but do you think such a person can save this false prosperous age?"

Wu Xuan shook his head subconsciously, and then froze.

He has always been a very obedient person.

His face immediately became serious.

"So, you are so anxious to drag me to the Zhao family because you want me to save Li Guo, who is about to collapse in the world?!!"

"???"

Zhao Zhen was stunned. After he came back to his senses, he thought it was just a boy's joke and didn't take it to heart, and then said.

"Of course not! What are you thinking in your little head!"

"The Zhao family has collected nearby martial arts geniuses and trained them intensively. Among them are many children of my Zhao family. Once you have mastered the innate skills, you will become a teacher."

"teacher?"

Wu Xuan was depressed and didn't know what to do when he wanted to be a teacher. What did Zhao Zhenyi say and do? What does the general trend of the world have to do with his young boy dancing a spoon?

"You will know after a while that my Zhao family's teacher is not something that ordinary people can be, that is, you...Junior Brother Wu."

Wu Xuan did not attach too much importance to his meaningful words.

He waved his hands half-heartedly.

"Then hurry up."

"Hey, you kid, you really don't understand good people!"

Changing the topic, Wu Xuan naturally had his own thoughts, but he just didn't want to tell Zhao Zhenyi.

On the way to Zhao's house, I passed by Zhao's Cloth Shop.

Zhao Zhen pulled him and turned directly in.

When coming out.

The linen clothes that had accompanied Wu Xuan for several years had been left in the toilet without a trace.

As the saying goes: A man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on its saddle.

Wu Xuan, who had acquired profound beautification through his innate skills, was by all accounts the most handsome young man in Wujiagou. The new clothes Zhao Zhenyi arranged for him were made of batik with a bluish ink color, three splendid magpies and some landscape patterns.

This kind of clothing is usually the Sanyuan Shang worn by scholars to announce good news.

Wu Xuan also had an aloof temperament when wearing it, and it fit perfectly. Zhao Zhenyi had obviously prepared it in advance before coming here.

Even the palace ribbons and crowns are ready.

The palace ribbon is made of red rope warm lion jade, and the crown is an ink-dyed Xuantan crown. In fact, Wu Xuan is not old enough to tie his hair, but there is no problem in dressing up like this.

A bunch of green jade hairpins tied up the long hair, making the overall look more stable, mature and down-to-earth.

Even if the family's land was sold, I couldn't afford this outfit! It shows that Zhao Zhen really paid attention to Wu Xuan and took care of all the details.

In addition, there were three sets of regular uniforms and five sets of martial arts uniforms for martial arts training. Zhao Zhenyi asked the store clerk to deliver them directly to his residence in the martial arts gym.

"Senior Brother Zhao..."

"Don't worry about it, these things are not worth mentioning to the Zhao family."

"If Junior Brother Wu can be a good teacher, I, Zhao Zhenyi, will naturally benefit a lot. Senior Brother may even ask for the secret of his innate skills."

Wu Xuan was immediately surprised. He knew deep down this method of winning people's hearts, but he had to admit that it was very practical.

What followed was a surprise. If I remember correctly, practicing innate skills requires a boy's body, and Zhao Zhenyi was at least one round ahead of him.

In other words...he is at least 28 years old, and he is still a young boy.

"Ha ha ha ha."

Seeing Wu Xuan laughing, Zhao Zhenyi thought he had agreed at first, but then he thought, this laughter was wrong!

He's weird, and his eyes are too sensitive.

It wasn't until he heard a few trembling words from Wu Xuan's mouth that he couldn't help but clenched his fists and said angrily.

"Junior Brother Wu!"

"Hahahahaha, I didn't expect...Senior Brother Zhao is still a pure young man like me...Hahaha!"

Wu Xuan ran away, his steps brisk, and he had already covered several feet in the blink of an eye. Zhao Zhenyi quickly followed and shouted.

"Keep your voice down and stop talking! I'm angry!!!"

The two chased and escaped, and unknowingly arrived at the Zhao Mansion during the fight.

The Zhao Mansion in Qishan City is quite large, occupying almost half a street. It is said that there are manors ten times larger outside the city, which are far inferior to those of wealthy families.

This Zhao family can be regarded as the largest wealthy gentry in Qishan City. It is not surprising to have such an appearance, but it is the first time for Wu Xuan to come to such a wealthy mansion.

He walked straight in as if he saw something strange.

When the guard guarding the gate saw Wu Xuan's rich and noble clothes and Zhao Zhenyi chasing him not far away, he didn't dare to stop him and let him in without even questioning him.
