Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang

In the collision between the building ship and the huge warship;

Under that violent tremor on the deck;

The ship was like a strong wind blowing leaves, and almost everyone was swaying, except Xu Sheng. His figure was like a green pine, and his steps were like lightning. He was fast and steady. He shouted: "Zhang Liao, the dog thief, come to see you this time." Win or lose!"

The ancient ingot knife slashed from top to bottom, straight towards Zhang Liao.

"call…"

Zhang Liao dodged sideways, and the ancient ingot knife was sharp and smashed a big hole in the deck. The muscles in Xu Sheng's strong arms were tense, and the veins on his hands popped out.

His eyes were slightly narrowed, his pupils constricted, and he was firmly aiming at the prey in the distance.

On the other hand, Zhang Liao knew the water well and had specially strengthened his water fighting skills, but on the deck, in such a bumpy environment, his combat effectiveness was still not comparable to that of Xu Sheng.

"snort--"

The ancient ingot sword was raised again, with overwhelming power. There was only a "boom" sound, and the ancient ingot sword was smashed down again. Zhang Liao staggered and dodged sideways, but because of the bumps on the deck, he had no choice but to fall to one side.

Xu Sheng's experience in water fighting was so rich that even Zhang Liao's bumps were not taken into account... When the ancient ingot knife fell, he changed his move from vertical to horizontal. Zhang Liao could only lift the crescent halberd to block.

"唵啷啷啷-"

The collision of the weapons made a crisp sound. Zhang Liao was forced to block, and the deck shook. For a moment, he felt numb in the tiger's mouth. He almost wanted to let go of the crescent halberd, and broke out in cold sweat... He had to use all his strength, add two points of strength, and then suddenly Release your strength and take a few steps back.

"Hahahaha..." Xu Shengsheng laughed, "Is this Zhang Wenyuan, who is so powerful in Xiaoyaojin? Is this what he is capable of?"

Yes, in the past, Zhang Liao made all the tiger generals of Soochow, Lu Meng, Chen Wu, Gan Ning, Ling Tong, Pan Zhang, Song Qian, Xu Sheng, Ding Feng, Jiang Qin, and He Quanquan, lose their color and become a laughing stock.

Today, Xu Sheng finally regained the face Soochow lost in this water battle on this deck.

It's just...laughing, but in the fight just now...Xu Sheng didn't feel well either.

The injury on his shoulder has not yet healed, and after working hard for several days, Zhang Liao felt pain in his mouth, and he felt pain in his chest and heart... However, this feeling of trampling Zhang Wenyuan, who had "stopped crying" under his feet, made Xu Sheng I forget the pain in an instant, my spirits are high, I pick up the knife and chop again!

On the deck, in a water battle, the prerequisite for all strength and skills is to be able to stand firm, and the feet can stick to the deck!

At this point, Zhang Liao, a northerner, suffered too much.

Northerners have big butts, so they can ride horses across the plains;

Southerners have big feet, so they can ride on the decks of warships. This is basically a problem of "Orange grows in Huainan and Huaibei". It is a natural restraint and flaw.

Under total disadvantage...

Immediately, Zhang Liao felt something bad in his mind. As the saying goes, "A broken mirror cannot be rounded, and a broken mirror cannot be recovered."

At this time, it's too late to retreat.

The sound of "hum" came from Zhang Liao's mouth for the first time on the battlefield. He secretly thought: "Xu Sheng's foot is so stable. If he delays it, he will definitely die. He can only attack the third route!" 』

Wanting to understand this, Zhang Liao switched from defense to offense, trying to keep his lower body as steady as possible. The crescent halberd in his hand had already fallen aside, so he pulled out his saber and swung it continuously.

As the saying goes, one inch is short, one inch is dangerous, and daggers meet. If it were on land, Zhang Liao would not be afraid of Xu Sheng, but on this river... it was still too far. In just a few rounds, Xu Sheng's powerful and heavy blow forced Zhang Liao to defense.

Zhang Liaoqiang pays more attention to skills in command and martial arts.

But Xu Sheng seems to have all his abilities focused on strength and attack...

The moves are wide open and closed, almost completely giving up defense and just attacking.

Zhang Liao had no doubt that he might be able to stab Xu Sheng with one knife, but Xu Sheng would definitely kill him with one knife at the same time.

It can be said that this is the most difficult battle Zhang Liao has ever fought in his life.

"Watch the knife——"

With a bang, Zhang Liao blocked it, and a huge force hit him. He flew out like a kite with its string broken.

"Pfft"... Zhang Liao felt his throat tighten, and a mouthful of blood gushes out from the corner of his mouth...

The whole person also lay on the ground.

——"Isn't Liao Zhong his opponent Xu Sheng on this deck?" 』

Zhang Liao climbed up with difficulty, thinking to himself...

But the "tapping" footsteps continued, and Xu Sheng was moving forward with sonorous and powerful steps.

Every step seems to be proving something;

Every step seemed to be to get back something that he...or Soochow had lost.

as if…

In his mind, when Xu Sheng went to the battlefield for the first time, Sun Ce's words, "You, don't use the old way of fighting, you will die." This sentence was especially vivid in my ears, and it has always been lingering in my ears.

However, Xu Sheng seemed to be determined, and it was as if he was responding to General Bo Fu's words in his heart again and again.

——"General Bo Fu, it was you who taught me that this kind of fearless way of moving forward, regardless of life and death, is the easiest to inspire people!" 』

Yes, let your warships ram into the enemy's warships;

Yes, fearlessly attack the enemy ship and challenge the bravest among the enemy;

Yes, letting the most powerful enemy fall to the ground, gasping for breath, and turn into a lamb to be slaughtered... This is the best way to awaken the fighting spirit and blood of the children of Jiangdong, and the most powerful way to awaken the determination and courage of the Soochow soldiers to fight to the death!

Xiaoyaojin, the Jiangdong disciples were only defeated, not dead——

There must be someone who can pick up what is lost——

"break…"

With Xu Sheng's roar, the knife had already hit Zhang Liao's left button, and a heartbreaking pain swept through his body. Zhang Liao staggered and almost fell down...

Xu Sheng gritted his teeth and lips, pressing the bloody ancient ingot knife, trying to penetrate further. This was a posture that wanted to split Zhang Liao into two pieces.

Zhang Liao's shoulders retreated together with the ancient ingot knife. He could already feel the ancient ingot knife hitting the bones. The pain... was so heartbreaking that he could no longer feel the violent river wind and scorching fire around him. , no... I can feel it. The wind flows into the body along the gap where the ancient knife hit the shoulder, and it is chilly...

With a "click", Zhang Liao was nailed to the guardrail of the ship a few feet away behind him.

pain…

Heartbreaking pain!

Xu Sheng looked ferocious, but in his heart he was overjoyed. The ancient ingot sword moved forward again, just wanting to kill Zhang Liao and avenge his previous shame.

However, the feeling of holding his "rival" in his hands was too overwhelming, which made Xu Sheng feel a little dizzy for a while.

He wanted to humiliate Zhang Liao...

How Zhang Liao humiliated Soochow, he wants to return all of this!

The ancient ingot knife continued to bury itself in Zhang Liao's shoulder, and he couldn't help but say harshly.

"It's now, and there's no need to hide it from you. If you Xiaoyaojin hadn't killed too many of my Soochow disciples, and if you hadn't made me Soochow a laughing stock, maybe I would have spared that female doctor... What a pity, what a pity, Because she is inextricably linked to you, everyone in Soochow wants to get rid of her quickly, so she died miserably, all because of you!"

Following these harsh words, the ancient knife was buried a little deeper into Zhang Liao's shoulder.

But... under these words, Zhang Liao seemed to be stunned.

"You said Zhuo Ronggu...girl, was...you the one who killed her?"

It seemed that at this moment any pain in his heart was gone. The anger in Zhang Liao's heart surpassed everything overnight. His tiger eyes were condensed and glaring. Even though the ancient ingot knife was rubbing between the bones, he no longer cried out. Say something.

"Hahahaha..." Xu Sheng thought he had a chance to win. Yes, an enemy whose shoulder was almost pierced by an ancient ingot knife, and a man who was about to be crippled, no matter how powerful he was in the past? So what?

Xu Sheng said in a mocking tone: "Forget it, it's fine now, you two can meet each other under the Nine Springs——"

Who would have thought...this sentence has not escaped my lips.

Xu Sheng suddenly felt a majestic power passed to him from the ancient ingot knife.

For Zhang Liao, the pulling and heartbreaking pain in his left shoulder suddenly disappeared.

I don't know where the strength came from, Zhang Liao kicked Xu Sheng away with a flying kick, and then... holding the handle of the ancient ingot sword with his right hand, he used all his strength to pull the ancient ingot sword out of the deeply buried bones. Pulled it out and threw it forward again.

At this moment, Zhang Liao's hair was disheveled and his body was covered in blood...

Like a completely bloody man, his eyes were red, the flames burned his blood, and the river water slapped on his wounds, but he no longer felt anything.

At this moment, a low, restrained, and hoarse voice came out of his bloody mouth.

"She is my...my savior——"

"If you kill her, then I will kill you to avenge her——"

With a sound of "Whoosh...", Xu Sheng felt a strong wind coming from his side, and his hair stood on end. He instinctively wanted to touch the knife, but just now the ancient ingot knife had fallen. On the bumpy deck , where to find weapons?

I can only roll around and hide...

Zhang Liao missed the blow, and his movements were as fast as lightning. He rushed over as if he was flying. Regardless of the severe pain in his left shoulder, he directly grabbed Xu Sheng's shoulder with his right hand, hit Xu Sheng's head... and hit it against the deck. Xu Sheng's eyes immediately Suddenly, Zhang Liao pounced with his left foot again, and when he came over, his right foot kicked up early and flew straight to Xu Sheng's forehead, hitting the center of Xu Sheng's forehead.

Xu Sheng fell backwards, feeling that all his strength had collapsed and he could not regain his energy.

This attack and kick was also used by Zhang Liao when he was fighting with Ling Tong on Sifang Mountain.

Thinking about that time...if Zhuo Rong hadn't stopped him, he and Ling Tong would have died on Sifang Mountain because of their bravery and ruthlessness.

Zhang Liao has long passed the age of "personal love between children". He will never have feelings for a young girl like Zhuo Rong...

But he is a righteous man. The most important thing for a righteous man is friendship, and the most important thing is the grace of saving his life!

Kill Zhuo Rong...

That made him even more angry and violent than killing Zhang Liao!

call…

Xu Sheng, on the other hand, fainted due to the impact of his head on the deck, and was kicked by Zhang Liao on the forehead, with blood splattering all over his forehead.

At this moment, Xu Sheng regretted it.

Just now, he just killed Zhang Liao, why are you mocking him? Provoke him?

But...who would have thought that Zhang Liao could still use this strength despite losing one of his arms and suffering from the severe pain in his heart.

Whether it’s eight hundred to one hundred thousand, or whether the child has stopped crying, it seems...those are definitely not lucky, Soochow deserves to lose! Koto’s Nightmare lives up to its name!

but…

Even if it is a nightmare, Xu Sheng will definitely crush it today.

Fortunately, he once again found the ancient ingot knife where Xu Sheng fell.

This time...he had an extra weapon, while Zhang Liao was bare-handed and had lost one of his arms...the battle...the art of victory and defeat? Not decided yet!

"snort…"

With a cold snort, Xu Sheng stood up staggeringly. His bloody red eyes stared coldly at Zhang Liao, "So what if I kill you? How many of my Jiangdong disciples have you killed? Huh... you are violating the territory of Wu." If it is strong, it will be destroyed by attack——"

Accept your fate...

While talking, Xu Sheng rushed towards Zhang Liao. A soldier threw a short knife at Zhang Liao, and Zhang Liao also held the knife and rushed towards Xu Sheng.

"die--"

As the two of them burst into laughter, both of them used a wide-ranging style of attack, only attacking but not defending.

Xu Sheng's ancient ingot knife was intended to penetrate Zhang Liao's left-click wound, while Zhang Liao's short knife was intended to stab Xu Sheng's chest... Poof, accompanied by two muffled grunts, their weapons... both pierced each other's wounds. skin…

"ah--"

Blood spurted out from the mouths of the two people, but...even if the two people opened their mouths, the overflowing blood could be seen, but the two of them refused to retreat.

One is kindness!

One is the glory!

For a righteous man, kindness is greater than life;

As for honor, what Xu Sheng wants to pick up is not only his own honor, but also his army, and the Wu he inherited from General Bo Fu in his heart!

With a simultaneous kick, the two of them fell to the ground at the same time. They picked up their weapons again, got up and staggered towards each other...

This action is repeated over and over...

The third time, the fourth time, the fifth time... it happened a full seven times!

Their bodies were already riddled with holes——

…

…

A villa in Wu County.

An old woman was holding a thick needle, her silver hair scattered covering her vicissitudes of life.

And if you look from the other side, you can see a kind cheek, looking at the cloth in his hand, showing a slight smile from time to time, but after the smile, there is worry again.

She is Xu Sheng's mother, who migrated from Xuzhou.

At this moment, she was patiently and carefully inserting a thick needle back and forth on a long piece of cloth. She was preparing to knit a scarf. It was already autumn, and the weather was getting colder. It was uncertain when it would snow.

She didn't want her son to get cold while out in the field!

…

Bingzhou Yanmen County.

A child asked an old man, "Weng Weng, why did our family's original surname suddenly change to Zhang when our original surname was Nie? Why didn't we change it back after so many years?"

Faced with this question, the old man pondered for a moment and answered the child, "Didn't Weng Weng tell you the story of the Mayi conspiracy? Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wanted to attack the Huns because our ancestor Nie Yi had good relations with the Huns. So they lured the Huns to attack Mayi... But who would have thought that it was not known whether the news was leaked or the ambush of 300,000 Han troops was discovered by the Huns. In the end... the Huns retreated, and the matter ended... After this, our ancestors could only hide their names and change their appearance, so the surname Nie was changed to the surname Zhang!"

Listen to the old man telling this story.

The child chirped, and he thought for a while, "I know, if the Mayi plot had succeeded, then our family would have been prosperous... Now she is probably the queen of the hero... Maybe there will be a champion who looks like a champion. Such a great hero... What a pity... What a pity..."

"It's no pity..." Facing the child's words, the old man stroked his beard and sighed: "Weng Weng never thought that our Nie family would produce another world-shaking hero in this generation..."

"Who is Weng Weng talking about?"

"Of course it's your Uncle Wen Yuan..." The old man smiled and stroked his beard, "In our Yanmen... your Uncle Wen Yuan's name is just a name, but in Jiangdong, it is a symbol, a nightmare that the Wu people will never get over. The marks and symbols of…”

As if...the child had heard of Zhang Wenyuan's name, but at such a young age, he had no idea...

A pair of big eyes blinked again and again.

But the old man went on to say, "When your uncle Wen Yuan was your age, he was already able to pour hot water on an ant nest. Then...his brother Zhang Fan was so angry that he hung him up and beat him. He always said that he was a millionaire." Undeserved bravery, haha, I scolded him at that time, saying that he was undeservedly brave... I never thought that now your Uncle Wen Yuan has really become a general who is indomitable and brave enough for all creatures!"

Following the old man's words...

For a moment, the child became fascinated.

"I also want to learn from Uncle Wen Yuan and be a general worthy of all men..."

"Haha, you should first learn how to have the courage to be brave enough for all insects, hahahaha! Hahahaha..."

…

…

On the deck of the warship, the battle between Xu Sheng and Zhang Liao finally came to a conclusion.

From stabbing each other with daggers, to fighting with no regard for image, the blood gradually solidified. It seemed that both sides were injured, but in fact... Zhang Liao had already won.

Because Xu Sheng had a shoulder problem and was tired, he went into battle even though he was sick. Even though he had a slight advantage on the deck at first, as time went by, his decline became more and more obvious.

In the end, his consciousness was completely blurred, and he was chopping completely with will. The world was spinning and he was confused, and the blood loss made his vision blurred...

After coming back to his senses, he looked at Zhang Liao blankly.

But then, Xu Sheng felt his neck was suddenly extremely cold, and his chest felt like it was soaked with water. Xu Sheng was unwilling to give in... because he was just a little bit away from killing Zhang Liao and Soochow breaking through this nightmare. …

Maybe it was just a matter of shutting up for once;

Maybe it’s the healing on the shoulder;

Maybe it's just that small of a difference...

Finally, he fell, falling in infinite unwillingness. Until the end, his open eyes were still full of unwillingness and fearlessness.

What is certain is that as long as he is still breathing, in this battle... he will be the one who persists to the end!

…

A night of waves, a night of fire, a night of killing.

But, the night will eventually dissipate.

The morning light was dim, and warships had docked one after another. On the deck, Zhang Liao was half-kneeling, covered in blood. He used his last strength to look at the river, where... it was still a battlefield.

A deputy general quickly reported:

"General, all the enemies on the big ship have been cleared... The enemy ships have all been captured. However, for some unknown reason, the Jiangdong soldiers above refused to surrender. They either threw themselves into the river or resisted until the end, risking their lives. Died by random knives!"

"All the remaining enemy ships on the river sank to the bottom of the river in the fire, and the Jiangdong Army was almost completely wiped out——"

Listening to this report, Zhang Liao took a deep breath.

It has to be said that the battle last night was the most dangerous battle he had ever fought in his life. The enemy's attack...the enemy's madness was completely beyond his expectation.

It also gave Zhang Liao a new understanding of the four words "Jiangdong children" for the first time.

——Not all Jiangdong is a rat!

At least Xu Sheng is a respectable opponent!

call…

With another long exhale, Zhang Liao stood up with difficulty.

The soldiers quickly helped Zhang Liao up, "General, how are you?"

"I'm fine..." Zhang Liao said that he was fine, but even though the wounds on his body had been simply bandaged, blood was still flowing out from the cuts, and the blood was thick.

"What a terrible opponent. Xu Sheng is so difficult to deal with. I'm afraid Yun Chang wants to be simple. Lujiang City may not be easy to break -" Zhang Liao let out a faint sigh, and he finally looked at the man who fell on the deck. Xu Sheng, "Bury him generously——"

And this sentence seemed to use up Zhang Liao's last strength.

There was only a "boom" sound, and Zhang Liao fell to the side without any warning... The moment the battle that relied entirely on will came to an end was also a moment of weakness and exhaustion.

"General..."

"General..."

"Where is the medical officer? Where is the medical officer?"

A series of extremely concerned and worried voices came from the deck, and for a while, the place was in chaos!

…

…

On the high platform at Ruxukou, Sun Shao and Zhou Xun watched all night.

They didn't know that Zhang Liao and Xu Sheng were fighting madly in the warship... They didn't know what kind of Shura scene was going on in the warship.

but…

From the moment when the Soochow Navy's building ship rushed towards the fire, knocked through the hidden piles, and then rushed towards Cao Wei's main ship as if they "died together".

Sun Shao and Zhou Xun felt that this Soochow navy might not be able to sit back and die so easily.

The news came back, which confirmed their suspicions...

It was obviously a battle with countless ambushes, a sure victory, a complete victory, and a great victory, but for the Wei army, it was a tragic victory!

Even their generals Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan were seriously injured and fainted.

Of course, these are not important to Zhou Xun and Sun Shao...

Even, they were a little happy to hear it.

This Soochow navy brought by Xu Sheng not only successfully trapped the three thousand elite soldiers supported by Sun Quan, but also severely damaged Cao Wei's navy... There is no more optimistic situation than this.

Sun Shao couldn't help but sigh: "Fifty Ruxukou warships, the lives of three thousand Sun Quan's soldiers, more than two hundred Dongwu warships, more than fifteen thousand Jiangdong navy... Such battle losses are enough for Sun Quan's dog The thief is so broken..."

"It's more than just a muscle injury..." Zhou Xun's lips curled up into a smile, and he said coldly: "Sun Quan is about to panic. The only soldiers he can use now, except for the one in Lujiang, are the only ones left under my command. Damn it! The only one he can trust now is me, Zhou Xun!"

this…

Hearing this, Sun Shao was a little suspicious, "If the news comes back that your soldiers and horses in Ruxukou have not been lost at all, but the reinforcements have been completely destroyed, I'm afraid it will arouse Sun Quan's suspicion!"

"Who said that my troops and horses have not been lost at all?" Sun Shao's words made Zhou Xun immediately refute.

"ah…"

Before Sun Shao could open his mouth in confusion, Zhou Xun's smile became even brighter, "What if I say that I also lost my troops and generals, leaving only three thousand remaining soldiers to defend Ruxu?"

this…

Under Sun Shao's shocked eyes, Zhou Xun continued to chant, "The only ones who know the truth are Zhou Xun, Zhou Jiajun and Hongyan. The rest are all dead——"

As Zhou Xun blurted out his words...

"Report... General Zhou..." A guard came immediately to report: "There are defeated Soochow troops who have returned from the middle of the river... and they have retreated to the camp."

"I know..." Zhou Xun replied casually.

The guard turned around and was about to leave. He never thought that Zhou Xun's words would come out one after another, "Wait a minute, keep an eye on these defeated troops. After a few days... wait until there are more people and they are all here before we start!"

When he said the word "do it", his eyes suddenly became sharp.

Sun Shao also seemed to understand something suddenly.

…

…

In Jiangling City, the hero of Jingnan, Hao Zhao, came back. As soon as he got off the carriage, he asked: "I heard that Mr. Yunqi has also arrived in Jiangling! Where is he? I'll pay him a visit!"

An official in the post house replied: "The Fourth Young Master knows that you are back and said that he will recruit you tomorrow. Today, I want you to go home and take a look."

With this sentence…

Hao Zhao's mind immediately thought of his wife, the daughter of the Xi family and the daughter of the Pang family, the daughter of Pang Lin, the daughter of the Pang family, who was loved by both the Pang and Xi families - Pang Rong!

"Since the Fourth Young Master said so, I will go back to the Xi Mansion right now...I will go home first and have a look..."

Hao Zhao has no father or mother. Since marrying Pang Rong, he has really made this place his home. Of course... because of Guan Yu and Guan Lin's matchmaking, no matter whether it is the Xi family or the Pang family, they have never felt sad in public. Hao Zhao.

He ran very fast, and now the Xi family has moved to the new city of Jiangling City. Without the guidance of enthusiastic people, Hao Zhao would not be able to find where the residence is?

Speaking of which...this new city now has a completely new look.

The entire Mianshui Villa was moved to the new city, occupying almost a quarter of the land in the new city. Because of the high wages, the workers in the Mianshui Villa also built their own new homes nearby, all with blue bricks and red tiles. house.

The alleys between the houses are also paved with bluestone floors.

Mi Fang built these roads out of her own pocket, and the houses were sold to these workers at a discount. But... there was one thing, the shops around these houses were contracted by Mi Fang.

Where there are people... there is business, and where there is business, there is money to be made.

In terms of business and vision, Mi Fang is still very tough.

Passing by a shop called "Qu Han Jiao Er Soup", in front of which was "Xi Mansion", Hao Zhao found that the shop was crowded with people, and some were curious...

It was only after listening to passers-by that this store was owned by the Mi family. The "Quhan Jiao Er Soup" inside was also named "dumplings". It was said that it was spread from the Mianshui Villa. Mi Fang was keenly aware of the business opportunity. So he opened a shop to promote this "dumpling".

Of course, that's not the point.

There is another reason why there are so many people, and that is... Mi Fang is now the hero of Jiangling City!

Some people have come here because of the reputation... and they are still talking outside the door.

"Quick...quick...this is the dumpling restaurant opened by Governor Mi...we have to come and support it!"

"Yes, Grand Administrator Mi withstood the offensive of tens of thousands of Wu troops with only 7,000 Mi family troops. If it weren't for him, how could we commoners have a good life? He is a hero!"

When the discussion comes to this...

A customer eating dumplings opened his mouth and said, "Actually, there is another hero besides Prefect Mi!"

"Who is it? But Changshan Zhao Zilong?"

"No, no, no!" The customer waved his hands repeatedly, "It's General Hao Zhaohao, the young hero who guarded Changsha...the one who was used as a matchmaker by the Fourth Young Master Guan to take the daughter of the Xi family and the Pang family..."

"Oh...are you talking about the General Hao Zhao who defeated 30,000 Wu troops with 2,000 soldiers..."

"Yes, yes, that's him..."

"I heard that many girls have already gone to the Xi Mansion to inquire, just asking if General Hao Zhao has any brothers, or if not, the young adjutant in his barracks will do..."

"Hahaha...Are those people really asking about their brothers? I'm afraid they are just trying to get ahead...and want to be a concubine for the young hero General Hao, right?"

"Hahahaha... If General Hao hadn't already married, wouldn't it be fun to imitate the Fourth Young Master like us and choose a few maids to fill the houses and enjoy them first..."

Uh... the topic gradually went off the rails and became outrageous.

In the end, Hao Zhao was actually blushing a little.

As for the maids and concubines who fill the house, he has never thought about it. He is an orphan without a father and mother. Fortunately, he is appreciated by Master Yunqi and marries a wife with such a good family background? How dare he have any unreasonable thoughts!

Not long after.

Hao Zhao has already arrived at the Xi Mansion. He entered through the back door. The door wanted to pass the news. Hao Zhao signaled... to be low-key. This is his usual style. After all, it is his wife's house, not his own... he usually has to be restrained in doing things. Be low-key.

He walked towards the main hall step by step...

Just as he was about to knock on the door, he heard the conversation.

It was Xi Zhen, the patriarch of the Xi family, and his niece Pang Rong who were discussing something.

"Rong'er, your husband is no longer what he used to be. The women outside the main gate are nominally asking if Hao Zhao has any brothers, but in fact, who is not thinking about your husband? He is also He is upright, young and vigorous... He needs a concubine to take care of him even when he is away from home in the army..."

"So, Rong'er, when he comes back, you have to tell him this: Your husband is away at war all year round, and I can't be with you. It's okay to have someone take care of you personally. Otherwise...what should the neighbors say? I'm ignorant! Have you remembered this?"

Well…

When Hao Zhao heard this, he was stunned.

Pang Rong was also a little surprised...

Of course, in ancient times... marrying a young man was not a taboo topic. During the prosperous Tang Dynasty... once the husband's status became prominent, a woman would often say to her husband when she was thirty years old, "Langjun, you see that I am not young anymore, and so are you." It’s time to choose a smaller one, otherwise my neighbors will say I’m ignorant.

The husband will often put it off and say something like, "I'm so busy, how can I think about this?"

At this time, the lady will say: "How about I do your photoshoot for you? If you are satisfied, just give me a look and I will stay..."

It can be seen from this that... women in ancient times were a little sensible and a little cute...

Why hasn’t this grand, dignified, and beautiful custom been passed down?

Of course, this is not the point. The point is that the Xi family has realized a huge sense of crisis and urgency regarding the "Hao Zhao" matter...

The son-in-law has risen——

Things are different now——

Here, Hao Zhao stood outside the door in shock, at a loss for a moment.

On the other side, Guan Lin had dinner with his mother, Mrs. Hu...

Mrs. Hu served Guan Lin two chicken drumsticks, one large and one small.

Guan Lin's index fingers twitched when he saw it, wanting to taste it immediately.

Mrs. Hu asked casually, "My son, I have to think about it. Should I have a big one tonight? Or a small one?"

ah…

Guan Lin was startled, what do you mean?

Is the big one a big tiger?

Is the little one a tiger?

It seems that tonight we will definitely have to "go deep into the tiger's den"!

…

…
