"Mr. Zhang, this is a gift of thanks and apology from Prince Dehou. Please accept it."
The person who spoke was still the warrior from Beiwu before, but this time there was a bit more smile on his face, not as straight-faced as the last time he came.
This trip took a lot of time, but what I brought was a large box of dried jade orchid. After opening, they are stacked neatly, each one is four to five inches long and about the thickness of a thumb. And there was a special fragrance coming out, which was very strong, making Zhang Yan, who didn't like strong fragrances, shrug his nose.
"It seems like there are too many?" Zhang Yan flipped through it briefly, and without counting, he could tell that there were more than 100 jade orchids in this box.
"Haha, Mr. Zhang has a good eye. There are a total of one hundred and fifty plants in this box. The extra fifty plants are a gift from Prince Dehou to Mr. Zhang. I also hope that Mr. Zhang can visit Beiwu in his spare time in the future. The prince will definitely I will sweep the bed to wait for you."
Zhang Yan laughed. Without answering, a thought occurred in his mind that the speech skills of the prince who was far away in Beiwu Kingdom would be solved. I don't know if the other party will learn to be more calm in the future after suffering such a big pain.
"Okay, I think your prince's problem is not a big problem anymore."
Zhang Yan is not polite either. As soon as he raised his hand, the box was closed, and then he put it in the corner and put it away. At the same time, he seemingly said perfunctorily that the problem was solved. The smile on the face of the warrior opposite him was dull for a moment.
Is this good? Isn't this bastard just trying to cheat? It is inevitable that there will be such speculation in my mind.
Zhang Yan also saw the suspicion of the other party and said with a smile: "Don't worry, your prince is blessed with great fortune. The little difficulties here will be solved naturally. You can go back and confirm."
"No need. If the prince is fine, he will come over quickly to let you know. If there is no news in January, it means that the prince is still under control. Then Mr. Zhang will have to worry about it."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yan looked at the other party carefully again. Compared with the stern look last time, the other party's visit this time was full of etiquette. It could even be said that he had lowered his status and put himself in a position of "asking for others" instead of "exchanging" like before.
Including the fifty extra jade orchids in the box just now, Zhang Yan seemed to understand what the other party meant. But if the other party doesn't take the initiative to mention it, he won't take the initiative to ask.
The things were given, and Zhang Yan also responded. Moreover, Zhang Yan also accepted the fifty extra jade orchid stems, and even put them here with a word of caution. After that, it came to an end for the time being. After bowing, he said goodbye and left. It is estimated that the next time we see each other will be one month later when we get the news that the prince is fine.
Zhang Yan was also different from the last time. He took the initiative to see the other person to the door, with a good attitude.
Need to guess? Zhang Yan didn't think it was necessary. If you change your position and think about it, you can know what Prince Dehou of Beiwu opposite is thinking.
It's nothing more than focusing on the "speech skills" method, and then wanting to poach Zhang Yan together. And all that was paid was fifty dried jade orchids. This thing may be difficult for ordinary people to get, but is it a big deal for the prince who is in charge of the financial power of Beiwu Kingdom? It's just words.
As for Zhang Yan, will he always stay in Nanyuan Kingdom? Naturally impossible. The Wild Sky Territory is so big, so he naturally wants to walk around and see it. Therefore, the kindness of Prince Dehou would not offend him. But he won't be in a hurry. Even if a formal invitation comes, he will hold back and won't give it a confirmation. Everything also requires the most fundamental premise: strength.
It is precisely because of his lack of strength that Zhang Yan needs to move around the Nanyuan Kingdom, relying on his status as a miscellaneous scholar and as a guest teacher at the Wushu Academy to slowly manage his business, showing his value bit by bit and consolidating his foundation. Give yourself a relatively peaceful development time.
Otherwise, do you really think that the term "having a jade is a crime" is only useful on earth? It can also be used in the wilderness area. It's just that Zhang Yan now has a very good sense of proportion. He treats everyone who knows his "skills" very comfortably and treats them as "one of his own". Only then can he have the stability he has today. If he didn't grasp any of the measures in between, if he made a slight mistake in his trip, he wouldn't be as comfortable as he is now.
But it's soon.
Zhang Yan found that his luck was really good after arriving in the Wild Sky Territory. He doesn't know if this is also under the influence of the world of the Desolate Heaven Realm. Anyway, with the existence of the Holy Realm and the cheating gangs of the Desolate Tian Realm, he feels that the ups and downs of cultivation do not exist here at all.
After sending away Prince Dehou's cronies, he closed his eyes downstairs, seemingly resting, but actually sorting out the things at hand and the way forward. When he opened his eyes again, the heart-wrenching screams from upstairs were gone, and footsteps coming downstairs could be heard. Princess Qingling finished her homework for today and came down.
"teacher."
"Yeah. Let's go back."
It is said to be schoolwork, but it is very special. There is very little communication between teachers and students. Students don't even need to understand what to memorize, which can provide gains and benefits, but only if they can withstand the pain involved.
I thought Princess Qingling would bow and leave in a hurry as usual. But this time, the other party had no intention of leaving immediately. Instead, he took the initiative to talk to Zhang Yan about his own affairs for the first time.
"Teacher, in one month, students will return to Yuanding Imperial City to participate in the competition. Due to their limited status, students have been like leaves falling in the wind since they were young. This competition is the first time in this life that students can do something for their own lives. A struggle is also the first time to pretend that you can be your own master. So students don’t want to lose.”
Zhang Yan also stopped smiling. Although he could not empathize with Princess Qingling, the knowledge he received in his previous life on earth made him agree with Princess Qingling's idea of fighting for herself.
"Your Highness, please tell me if you have anything to say."
"Teacher, this time the student's opponent is a master of the late Kaiyuan Realm. The student has barely entered the middle stage of the Kaiyuan Realm. In addition, the teacher has recently improved the toughness and endurance of his skin and flesh to a level comparable to that of a male warrior in the early stage of the Kaiyuan Realm. At this point, there is still more than half a month left, and it may be possible to catch up with the physical toughness and endurance of male warriors in the middle stage of the Kaiyuan Realm.
After that, I also followed the teacher's advice and learned some combat skills that were different from what I had done before as my trump cards. But I still feel unsure. I want to listen to the teacher’s teachings. What is the solution? "
After saying this, Princess Qingling bowed deeply, which was the most solemn gift in the royal family.
Can Zhang Yan help the other party? Of course it is possible. For example, Bone Strengthening Pill. But that thing is not suitable for publicity for the time being, and it cannot change the plight of Princess Qingling. After all, Princess Qingling is not stuck at the bottleneck of her realm like Shi Xuan. It is impossible to make a big change in her realm with just one Bone Strengthening Pill.
After a moment of silence, Zhang Yan dug out some cinnabar and blank yellow paper that he had left here before. Then she drew a talisman in Princess Qingling's confused eyes...
"Burn it before the fight, and then swallow the ashes with the spirit. It will help you the most."
