Chapter 238: Skirmish
A few days later, the honor guard arranged by the emperor arrived in the Flame City. Zhao Zhenduo had already arranged everything, and the next day he and his father Zhao Wuwei left for the imperial capital.
The dignitaries of Flame City, as well as the friends of the Zhao family, have been sending Zhao Wuwei and his son to the north gate of Flame City. The send-off procession was spectacular, and the scene was crowded. He started to go out of the city in the morning and didn't leave the city of flames until noon.
The respect and admiration of the people of Flame City for the Zhao family is unparalleled. They all have a kind of crazy worship for the Zhao family.
Zhao Wuwei and his son were also very moved, and if they wanted to get someone else's wear, they had to pay twice. The Zhao family has indeed done enough for the people of Flame City, this is the foundation of the Zhao family, and they have them in their hearts.
Xu Baichuan and Lin Guozhong naturally had to see them off, and when Zhao Wuwei's father and son left, they also returned to Xu's mansion.
"Brother Baichuan, you have worked so hard during this time. Brother Zhenduo is not here, and everything in Flame City still has to be taken care of by you. ”
"Brother Lin, even Brother Zhenduo is not working hard with me, I am not working hard at home, hahahaha. Xu Baichuan said with a smile.
"Hmm. That's what you're talking about. This time when they go to the imperial capital, the emperor will definitely receive them with a high standard, after all, they are relatives of the emperor. ”
"Brother Lin, what is the emperor's purpose in summoning them to the emperor at this time?"
"There is no special intention, the Zhao family is now very popular in the Blue Wolf Empire, and it is normal for the emperor to show goodwill. ”
"Look at everything today is like a dream, Duan Wuxian almost collapsed the Zhao family back then. Today's Zhao family is like Zhongtian, and no one expected it to be like today. Xu Baichuan said with emotion.
"The world is impermanent, and no one has such a vision. If Duan Wuxian knew that the Zhao family could have today, he would definitely die for his life, how could he offend the Zhao family?"
"Brother Lin, Lin Feng and others have made meritorious contributions on the front line, and this time Brother Lin Wang was also rewarded, which is gratifying. ”
"Our Lin family doesn't want to be rich, but only to be safe. The Lin family doesn't lack anything now, and it doesn't matter what kind of reward they have, they just hope that they can be safe and secure when they charge ahead. This is Lin Guozhong's heartfelt words, and it is also the truth.
Zhao Fei went to the mountains, Zhao Zhenduo went to the imperial capital, and the Zhao family's big stall was basically Zhao Ming and Zhao Yang asking about things. In major matters, it is basically decided by Lin Xue, Zhao Ming never dares to trespass, and he dares to implement it only if Lin Xue nods and makes a decision.
In fact, Lin Xue wants to be idle, and she is also practicing hard every day. However, Zhao Ming and others have developed the habit of asking for instructions, and they never make their own decisions on major matters.
"Sister Xue, Lin Feng is really good, our formation is beginning to show its power. After the news came from the front, the students in the academy practiced more actively. Zhao Ming hurriedly told Lin Xue the news.
"Dispatch a hundred people to support the front line, and the strength must be at least above the fifth order of the Refining Realm, and these hundred people can be used by at least a dozen or so fifth-order masters of the Refining God Realm, so that they can be the guardians of their father. Only then can I rest assured that my father is safe, anyway, we have people. Lin Xue pondered for a while, then quickly commanded.
"Okay, I'll open it tomorrow
The first screening personnel were sent to Heshuo City three days later. I will choose with my heart, and I will choose those who must be brave and loyal. Zhao Ming hurriedly made a statement.
"Hmm. In addition, we should pay close attention to the people who come out of the mountains, do not go near them, and at the same time count the number of people, so that we can have a number in our hearts. ”
"Don't worry, Sister Xue, it's all arranged. At present, the number of people we know is about a hundred people, and the lowest cultivation level is also in the fourth order of the God Refining Realm. This group of people is really terrible, if they make trouble in Qinghuang Town, it will bring us a lot of trouble. Zhao Ming was a little worried.
"They shouldn't be, we have no grievances with him, why are they bothering us? Besides, we are no longer what we used to be, three or five God Refining Realm masters want to make trouble, they won't take advantage of anything. "Lin Xue is confident.
This is also true, and black and white are an example of this. Without Lu seniors doing it, they just cleaned them up. Zhao Ming was a little proud when he said this.
At this moment, Zhao Wei hurried over.
"Big brother, something happened at the pharmacy, a few people made trouble there and injured people. ”
"What's going on? I just said that no one dares to make trouble, and there are still people who are not afraid of death. Zhao Ming was very annoyed when he heard it.
"Hurry up and deal with it, these people should all come out of the mountains, none of them are easy to mess with, try not to make enemies. Lin Xue hurriedly said.
After Zhao Ming said goodbye to Lin Xue, he quickly came to the pharmacy with Zhao Wei.
The door of the pharmacy was crowded with people, not all of them were troublemakers, most of them came to support the Zhao family. But many of these people are businessmen, and few are masters.
After Zhao Ming arrived, everyone took the initiative to give way to them. Zhao Ming took a closer look, and there were five people standing there proudly, disdainful of the people around them.
"A few seniors, I don't know where I offended you, why did you smash the plaque of my pharmacy?" Zhao Ming didn't get angry, he asked in a low profile.
The weakest of these are also seventh-order masters of the God Refining Realm, and one has already reached the ninth order of the God Refining Realm. There is no need for the Zhao family to set up such an enemy and make trouble for themselves.
"Hmph. Are you in charge here?" they looked at Zhao Ming, their faces dumbfounded. A young man in his twenties was actually a fifth-order master of the God Refining Realm, which surprised them a little.
"I'm okay, I don't know where a few seniors are dissatisfied, making such a big fuss?" Zhao Ming smiled.
Zhao Ming's performance surprised these five people a little, he was so self-contained at a young age, this son is not simple.
"Your guy doesn't have eyesight, one of my thousand-year-old ginsengs, he actually only gives a few hundred gold coins, when we are idiots? "The ninth-order master of the God Refining Realm who was the leader was very angry.
"Seniors, they're just guys, and it's normal that they haven't seen thousand-year-old ginseng. Besides, to do business is to bargain, you can ask for a price, we can sit on the ground and bargain. You can negotiate the price, but it is a bit too much to say about smashing the plaque of our Zhao family. "Zhao Fei
His eyes were shining, and he began to become stronger.
"Huh. We have never known what the Zhao family is, and we are not afraid of your Zhao family. If the guy is disrespectful, he should be taught a lesson, and since the lesson is a lesson, they must be remembered for a long time. The other party also began to speak strongly.
"Haha, old man, aren't you afraid of the wind flashing your tongue when you say big things?, have you been in the mountains for a long time, and you are treating yourself stupidly?" At this moment, Xu Ruyi rushed over with Fang Wenxian and others, and after Xu Ruyi came in, he began to taunt them.
If two years ago, these masters could still make them a little afraid, now they can no longer pose any threat to the Zhao family.
"Young man, you are arrogant. ”
"Aren't you arrogant or still a young man? Old man, you were also young, weren't you arrogant when you were young? If you weren't arrogant, then you really lived this age in vain. Xu Ruyi shook his head and said, his eyes full of contempt.
"Huh. You have such cultivation at a young age, and you do have the capital to be arrogant. But in front of us, you are still not qualified. ”
"Yes, old man. Tell you who this one is, he is Fang Wenxian, the son of Yanbei Hou. He is just thirty years old this year, and he is already a seventh-order master of the God Refining Realm, and you are not even qualified to be his servant at your age. He is also very arrogant, do you dare to kill him?" Xu Ruyi continued to mock.
After listening to Xu Ruyi's introduction, several people looked solemn. Yanbei Hou Fang Jun is too lethal, as long as the people who know his name in the Blue Wolf Empire, who dares to offend him easily?
Looking at the solemn faces of those people, Xu Ruyi couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "There is a good father with ability, and he is really different." Fang Wenxian, I really envy you for having a good father. ”
"Xu Ruyi, your mouth is too damaged, you are really not a thing. Old man, if you cripple him, I will buy you this ginseng, and I will give you at least 10,000 gold coins. Fang Wenxian jumped like thunder, eager to strangle Xu Ruyi, this guy's mouth is too damaged.
"My father's name is Xu Baichuan, and he only refined the fourth order of the realm a few years ago. But he's a big guy in Flame City, but you might ignore him. My name is Xu Ruyi, and my son's name is Xu Zihan. Twenty years later, if anyone bullies my son, he will say that which of you dares to bully me, my father is Xu Ruyi. As soon as Xu Ruyi's words fell, everyone laughed.
The faces of those people were blue and white, and they were ridiculed by Xu Ruyi. They wanted to teach Xu Ruyi a lesson, but there was one here who was the son of Yanbei Hou, and they didn't dare to take it lightly.
Not long after they came out of the mountains, their memories of the outside are still the same as they were back then. Newly rising families like the Zhao family don't have any recognition at all. But they were still a little shocked when they saw that this group of young people was all strong.
"A few seniors, we have no grievances, you are all big shots, don't be like a few guys. Since the seniors want to sell a thousand-year-old ginseng, we will accept it at a fixed price, 50,000 gold coins, how about it?" Zhao Ming didn't want to make enemies, and besides, he had the heart to win over the strong, so he still put his posture very low.
"Young man, since you are so sincere, I will sell it to you. We are from the mountains
To come out, you need some gold coins. The leader hurriedly went down the steps given by Zhao Ming. They didn't want to make a fuss, because he was even more surprised when he found that there were more and more masters coming over.
"Senior, since it's business, how about we talk in the house? You don't want to watch, just do whatever you want. Zhao Ming waved his hand to the onlookers, and everyone hurriedly left.
"Young man, you are not simple, it seems that the Zhao family has a lot of influence in Qinghuang Town. ”
"Don't hide it from your predecessors, Qinghuang Town was created by our Zhao family, and without our Zhao family, there would be no Qinghuang Town today. Zhao Ming said truthfully.
"Who is in charge of your Zhao family now?"
"The patriarch of our Zhao family is my father Zhao Zhenduo, he is the Marquis of Qinghuang and the patriarch of Flame City. And the real core of our Zhao family is my eldest brother Zhao Fei, but he is not here now, he has gone to the mountains. ”
"Qinghuang Hou, you are very unfamiliar with your Zhao family, why have you never heard of the Zhao family before?"
"These are long words, and one or two sentences are really not clear. Have you eaten lunch for a few seniors?How about I invite a few seniors to have a drink?" Zhao Ming proposed.
"Well, since you have this intention, then bother. The person at the head did not refuse Zhao Ming, he was very curious about the Zhao family, and he wanted to know more about the Zhao family.
