Tang Zhao and Yun Xiyan pleaded guilty and followed Xue Yeyu to see Xu Zhongnan.
When Xu Zhongnan got off the boat, Tang Zhao was still in the sword furnace. When he came out, Xu Zhongnan had already joined the team. The two had not formally met, and Tang Zhao had not even seen Xu Zhongnan's appearance head-on.
At this time, Xu Zhongnan was sitting on the banquet, holding a wine glass low, with an elegant appearance and a cold expression. The mustache on his lips was neatly trimmed, and he had the air of a worldly master with a clean eye.
Tang Zhao was filled with admiration at first sight and stepped forward to salute. Xue Yeyu stepped forward first and pushed Xu Zhongnan, saying: "Are you still pretending? Are you pretending to be in front of your own people? Why don't you set a good example for your junior brother?" .”
Xu Zhongnan was pushed upright by her, and he couldn't hold his posture any longer. He smiled wolfishly and said, "Don't come here to bluff me. My junior brother is like this, and you still use me as an example? Didn't you see that there are people from the imperial court over there?" ?Save me some face, I must not lose the dignity of a national teacher."
Xue Yeyu curled his lips repeatedly, and Tang Zhao took the opportunity to salute and said, "Tang Zhao has met the second senior brother."
Xu Zhongnan looked at him carefully and said with a smile: "Junior brother, what a talented person! How did you get such talent and appearance? It's like a new generation replacing the old. Golden phoenixes are flying more and more from our white crane's nest."
Tang Zhao quickly thanked him, but Xu Zhongnan already said: "What are your plans in the future? You will be a swordsman soon, right? Swordsman and swordsmith, dual identities, what a dazzling genius is that? You can't just stay there all your life. On Mount Jiugao, right? A swordsmith can stay away from the secular world, specialize in academics, and wait for business to come. A swordsman still needs to travel more, see more, accumulate experience, and hone himself in battle. Moreover, swordsmen still have obligations that cannot be shied away from. .”
Tang Zhao nodded. He knew that as a top-notch, otherworldly force, swordsmen were respected by others, but they also had to bear additional responsibilities. Almost every newly born swordsman would be guided by others to fulfill their part of the responsibility.
Although the swordsman was not isolated from the circle and did not know the details, Tang Zhao also guessed one or two - where did the evil come from? Who does the phantom look like? Where did the devil come from?
All the answers are not on earth, but in heaven.
That was another battlefield, a crueler place than the District Procuratorate. After all, the Procuratorate only cares about things on earth, not things in heaven. Heaven is the cruelest battlefield.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Tang Zhao's plan now. Even if he is really a swordsman, he can only wait passively to be picked up. If he can't escape, there is no need to think too much, which is different from the "future plan" mentioned by Xu Zhongnan.
Sure enough, Xu Zhongnan continued: "Are you willing to come to the capital? The imperial master is very hungry for talents..."
Xue Ye spoke in a calm tone and said, "Okay, are you going to help others take advantage of your own house?"
Xu Zhongnan chuckled and said: "What kind of poaching is this? In the current situation, it is better to go to heaven, but how can we have a decent place to stay on earth? There are wars everywhere, and the rivers and lakes are dangerous. Although the imperial court is not as good as before, it can still protect the capital. If the land is peaceful and peaceful, it is suitable to enjoy wealth and honor. And with the national master here, how can it not be a serious future?"
Xue Yeyu said unhappily: "The Imperial Master only accepts someone like you, and my junior brother doesn't want to become a monk yet."
Tang Zhao said with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness, senior brother, but I was originally sent by the Yunzhou Prefecture Inspection Division and have already settled in. I'm fine if I don't go out. I must return to the team when I go out. You see, my new boss and old boss They are all here, but you can’t say too much and ask them to come to me to ask for debt.”
Xu Zhongnan turned his eyes and saw Deputy Chi, Xing Ji and Feng Zhilie talking about something. As if sensing Tang Zhao's gaze, the three of them looked this way together.
The eyes of these three people were so sharp. Although they were just looking at each other aimlessly, Xu Zhongnan was shocked and speechless for a moment. Then he laughed and said smoothly: "The inspection department is good, especially the Yunzhou District Procuratorate. It is one of the few places where people can do things nowadays, and it is where ambitious sons and daughters stay. Many yamen seem to have plenty of money, but they are just killing time. Yunzhou is a good place. If you stay in Yunzhou, you will at least be far away. Hou's generation is safe and sound."
"The Female CEO's Almighty Soldier"
After dropping the topic and chatting for a few words, Xue Ye said, "Senior brother, have you gone to see dad?"
Xu Zhongnan's expression froze and he said, "What can't you see? He saw me and I saw him. Doesn't this mean we've seen him before?"
Xue Yeyu said: "Senior brother, don't play tricks on others. You know you can't escape, but you're already here, so why are you so coy?"
Xu Zhongnan looked really shy and had no integrity at all, and said, "I'm afraid he doesn't want to see me."
Xue Yeyu interrupted: "He wants to see you, but he is just as embarrassed as you. If you two are in such a stalemate, wouldn't the situation be deadlocked? In my opinion, he is the master and you are the apprentice, you should give in first How about giving him a step?"
Xu Zhongnan's expression changed, and Tang Zhao was naturally playing drums beside him to cheer up his senior brother. Xu Zhongnan gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay to meet in person. I've made a deal. It doesn't matter if the old man talks. I won't suffer any loss if he does it." .”
Xue Yeyu smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'll show you, you took the initiative, he can't go too far." After that, he pushed his senior brother away.
Seeing Xu Zhongnan half-pushing to leave, he suddenly pulled Tang Zhao and said in his ear: "Tell the third junior sister to go back quickly. It is very dangerous for her to appear in front of people like this. I can't control it if I'm not on the mountain. Since she trusts you, you Protect her."
Tang Zhao was startled, and when he looked again, he saw that Xu Zhongnan had left. He was surprised: I didn't expect that the second senior brother and the third junior sister had a close relationship?
Since it was his senior brother's order, Tang Zhao naturally went to Zhu Ying first to persuade her to go back early. Zhu Ying was silent after hearing the words, but first poured a glass of wine from the banquet and handed it to Tang Zhao.
Tang Zhao understood, finished the cup and said, "Thank you, senior sister."
Zhu Ying, who was under the veil, smiled softly and handed him another glass. Then she picked up a glass of wine and clinked glasses with him to drink together. Then he gave him a thumbs up and turned around.
Tang Zhao watched her go back, smiled softly, and sighed softly: This senior sister is indeed taciturn and never leaves home, but she is not born like this.
In that dense forest, her smile was also very beautiful and sunny.
After seeing off Zhu Ying, Tang Zhao returned to the banquet to drink. This was the second time he attended such an occasion, the last time was the Fuhui.
Compared with ghosting at the Fuhui, Tang Zhao was naturally more at ease at the banquet at his home. Although there were still various disasters waiting to be eliminated, Tang Zhao was still happy. Especially when I saw Xue Xianyun and Xu Zhongnan talking awkwardly from a distance, I felt even better.
So he went to reunite with his old friends one by one. Among them were the Black Widow and Guan Lei from Heyang County, the mother of his classmate, Mrs. Huarong, and her sons, Wang Fei, whom he met at the Fu Meeting, and one hundred and ten Wusuntong and Chesha from Baquan, Ju Tianxuan, Wu Yunfei, Yue Shen and others who came from powerful families, and even an elder Talisman Sword Master from Baquan. These are all his own people who have come all the way to support him, such as Mrs. Huarong, Black Widow, Wang Fei, and others, who have even taken the initiative to help. Tang Zhao was naturally grateful and thanked him repeatedly.
These people have witnessed his growth along the way. Now he has reached a certain point. Not only has he become famous, but he has also reached a new level. It can be said that he has been completely transformed. It is really touching to ask those who were there to witness it. Needless to say, Tang Zhao also had the honor of returning home in fine clothes.
It's just a pity that Brother Sui is not here, and the whole family of the Sui family who was the first to help him when he escaped from home is not here either. I don't know if we can meet him again in this life.
Going back further, his parents and the person who influenced his life passed away early. Yin and yang are separated, and it will be difficult to see him again. I wonder if their spirits in heaven can see them?
The parents’ spirits in heaven should be able to see them, right? Mr. Chen can't. His soul should have returned to his hometown, right? In his hometown, he can also meet his parents. Only his glasses were left as evidence of his having been in this world.
Thinking of this, Tang Zhao felt a little fuzzy, quite a bit like everyone would get drunk even if they were not drunk.
Friends, it’s not just drinking, there’s a lot to talk about.
One hundred and eight springs invited him to visit Liangzhou, Ju Tianxuan invited him to Longyuan, Wu Yunfei invited him to...
These words were polite words, but also a sincere invitation. Tang Zhao planned to visit these magical places in the north and south with his sword, but he was not so urgent.
Then came Wang Fei. Wang Fei quietly told him that the purpose of his trip was to seek help for Kungang. Tang Zhao was also as surprised as Yun Xiyan: "Why don't you ask the imperial court for help?"
Wang Fei's face darkened slightly and he said, "Water from afar cannot quench the thirst of those near you."
Tang Zhao felt strange-could Yunzhou not be far away? It was obvious that there was something in his words, especially his expression as if something bad had happened to him, but he still didn't understand the affairs of government, so he said, "Then what do you want..."
Wang Fei said: "I heard that you are under the command of Marquis Gaoyuan of Yunzhou, and I want you to help me introduce him to the Marquis. It is best to have a private channel so that outsiders will not know that I have been here."
Tang Zhao nodded. In fact, he had indeed been admitted to the Inspection Department since he was a child. From then on, he was considered a direct descendant of Marquis Gao Yuan, but he only had a name and had never even met Marquis Gao Yuan. Seriously, he has a bullshit private channel? Just get to know some of the channels.
His eyes swept over Jun Cheng and other officials, and then paused at his current boss, Deputy Commander Chi. Tang Zhao finally set his sights on Xing Ji.
"Let's ask Mr. Xing to see if he can personally recommend you to the prince."
Wang Fei was stunned. He also recognized Xing Ji and had cooperated with him before. However, Xing Ji never acknowledged his identity before. "Didn't he say he was a commoner?"
Tang Zhao said with a smile: "He is a commoner, but he always talks about the advantages of a commoner and the shortcomings of a commoner, but he doesn't look like a commoner anymore, right? Ask him again. If it doesn't work, I will think of another way."
The two walked through the banquet to find Xing Ji, and Xing Ji... Xing Ji was actually chatting with the black widow. Seeing Tang Zhao coming, Xing Ji smiled and said, "You're here just in time, Azhao. Master Yin wants to see you for something."
