Chapter Twenty-Six: The Zhao Family

"That's a nice guy!" Qin Zhirou gave her evaluation of Zhao Fu, and inexplicably sent a good person card.

"Yes, yes......" Zhao Fu was a little helpless.

"And then?" Qin Zhirou kept asking.

"How can there be so many followers, those who should go, and those who should disperse." Zhao Fu looked at the pedestrians downstairs and replied casually.

Who knows if he will meet her again in the future, Zhao Fu thought about it and felt a little melancholy, in this era, a separation may be a lifetime of separation, and communication is inconvenient, not to mention that he just knows who she is. That rumor is at least half close to the truth, that is, she really is a fairy-like girl.

"But rumor has it that they are in love!" Qin Zhirou was still asking.

Zhao Fu looked at Qin Zhirou's immature face, which had lost a little bit of immaturity, and smiled dumbly, no matter how old Qin Zhirou looked, she was still the child who believed in all kinds of ghosts, and she could trick her into drilling into her arms as soon as she told ghost stories.

"That's a legend, you can fall in love at first sight, so it's that simple?" No one knows how many times the moon worship boy and the moon worship fairy have looked at each other, and I am afraid that the only ones who can count are Zhao Fu and Xu Lingling.

But if you could take a few more looks, take a few more looks...... I'm sure I'm going to love fried tofu, right?

It's true, it's so delicate, but I just like to eat this greasy thing.

Zhao Fu shook his head and shook off too many thoughts about Xu Lingling in his mind, but instead brought a bowl of purple pill jujube soup to Qin Zhirou, temporarily blocking her mouth, unlike Xu Lingling, Qin Zhirou's favorite food is sweets.

Since the assassination of the Holy Maiden, Archbishop Siborough has gone to the temple to plead guilty, and most of the affairs in Jingliang City have been transferred to Xu Lingling and several young cardinals.

"Ah...... For them, the Holy Church is a big family, and believers donate money to this big family, and as the steward of the big family, the Holy See will give believers faith or material support. To put it in layman's terms, it's a bit like selling insurance, everyone pays money together, and if someone gets sick or loses a child, they will receive relief from the Holy Religion.

"Holy Maiden? What's wrong? Xie Xiyan was not demoted because he left his post without permission, and Xu Lingling did not say it, after all, as a saint, if it is rumored that she has a close relationship with outsiders, it will also cause a lot of trouble. As a result, Shesyan and the Templars were considered to be warriors who saved the Holy Maiden from fire and water, and their status increased rather than decreased.

Xie Xiyan also became Xu Lingling's guard knight because of this, and the benefits he got were self-evident, and Xu Lingling did not reveal his disgust towards him, which made him feel a little hope in his heart.

"It's nothing, I just want to eat tofu." Xu Lingling smiled at Xie Xiyan, laughing so hard that his whole body melted, and immediately asked the kitchen to prepare the ingredients.

Since Xu Lingling came back from Lanshui, he has eaten one meal of tofu for two meals in three days, and tofu soup, tofu flowers, stuffed tofu and so on are endless. But she didn't tell anyone that what she really wanted to eat was actually fried tofu with minced meat and green onions.

Zhao Fu didn't know that he and Xu Lingling were not far away at all, even if they ran a horse, it wouldn't take a day. But Xu Lingling knew where Zhao Fu was and how Zhao Fu was recently.

I heard that he was named the king of the northwest, and I heard that he became the general of the northwest. Although she was a little worried, she was very relieved of Zhao Fu's ability, and the Hu people in the north often harassed the temple area, so it was good for them to suffer! Xu Lingling's trust in Zhao Fu is even higher than Lin Haoyan's, and even she has never doubted it.

Qin Zhirou was still clamoring to hear the story, but Cao Zhongqing came out of nowhere and asked to talk to Zhao Fu alone.

"Miss Qin, Mrs. Qin is already waiting for you downstairs, and the town guard still has something to do." Cao Zhongqing bowed and saluted Qin Zhirou.

"What is so important?" Zhao Fu frowned, it was rare to be quiet, but he was going to be disturbed by someone.

"It's the Zhao family." Cao Zhongqing whispered in Zhao Fu's ear.

Zhao Fu was helpless, he could refuse anyone's invitation, but the Zhao family couldn't. Not to mention that the Lanhe Zhao family is the main family of the Lanting Zhao family, it is necessary to maintain a long-term state of war in the northwest, and it is not possible without stable logistics. Although there is Lin Haoyan's promise, but those people still do less things, even if the Zhao family does not go to Zhao Fu, Zhao Fu will definitely find a time to visit.

coaxed Qin Zhirou for a long time, and promised her that she would take her out to play tomorrow, so she sent Qin Zhirou downstairs.

After a short time, a middle-aged man walked slowly from the staircase, and Zhao Fu found that the entire seventh floor of the Moon Worship Building was empty.

No one knows how terrifying the power of the Zhao family is, and no one knows how huge the wealth of the Zhao family is, and the Zhao family has always been an extremely mysterious family. But anyone who has offended the Zhao family, no matter how big or small, will either disappear or can only change their surname to join the WTO. The Zhao family can suppress all the properties of a family, and the worst Wang Sima in history is because he offended a child of the Zhao family, and fell in love with someone's concubine, but Wang Sima was dismissed the next day, and then the Wang family collapsed, and even the clan branch publicly stated that Wang Sima would be expelled from the clan. In the Lanhe Empire, the Zhao family is such a cow.

"Zhao Pu of the Zhao family, I have seen the king of the northwest."

The middle-aged man bowed to Zhao Fu, and Zhao Fu also returned the salute. The title of Zhao Fu also varies from person to person, most of the military use the title of the Northwest General, of course, this is not an honorific title, but a joke, these people are waiting to see the joke of the Northwest General pacifying Beihu; Acquaintances still like to call Zhao Zhenshou, after all, Zhao Fu only takes the position of Zhenshou and leads the position of general; And some people will use Zhao Fu's title to be commensurate.

"Lanting Zhao Fu, I have seen my uncle." Zhao Fu didn't know Zhao Pu's status in the Zhao family, so he had to be commensurate with his elders, but he used the name of the Lanting branch instead of his other positions.

Zhao Pu looks very ordinary, if it weren't for a costly clothes, I'm afraid no one would be able to connect him with the Zhao family. Zhao Pu stared at Zhao Fu, as if he wanted to see through him, but Zhao Fu was not afraid, and calmly accepted the scrutiny of his family.

After a long time, Zhao Pu showed a satisfied smile and said three "good" words in a row.

"I really didn't see the wrong person, kid, you don't need to worry too much, our Zhao family still looks down on your little power." Zhao Pu refers to Zhao Fu's definition of his name, he previously called Zhao Fu the king of the northwest, and Zhao Fu replied to the court, but he called himself Lanting Zhao Fu. The intention of the two is obvious, if Zhao Fu recognizes his status as the king of the northwest, then it will become very troublesome to involve affairs with the Zhao family in the future. But this time the confrontation was won by Zhao Fu, and here Zhao Fu was only a disciple of the branch, as he wished, not a general who ruled the northwest, or the youngest prince.

"Then why did Uncle Clan come this time?" Zhao Fu was not frightened by Zhao Pu's momentum, he didn't care whether what Zhao Pu said was true or not, but his own affairs must not be bound by this inexplicable clan bond, no matter how powerful the Zhao family is, it is impossible not to care about hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, Zhao Fu thinks so.

"Nothing, nothing." Zhao Pu laughed and sat down, and immediately served warm tea to the waiter, Zhao Fu smelled it, and obviously noticed that this tea was many times better than the one he drank before, and then all kinds of dishes and dim sum that Zhao Fu couldn't imagine were served in the dishes that were as exquisite as the imperial tableware.

"This ...... Isn't it ......" Zhao Fu can be sure that these dishes are absolutely not on the menu of the Moon Worship Building!

"Not bad! Sure enough, he was a smart boy. Zhao Pu nodded and invited chopsticks.

This moon worship building is also the property of the Zhao family? Although Zhao Fu had thought about it before, he didn't know that it was really the case. Zhao Pu seemed to be a little tired, ate a lot, and praised again and again, "I haven't been here for a long time, and the taste is still as good as before!" ”

Zhao Fu also ate a few bites together, this is definitely the most difficult snack in his life to swallow, not because it is unpalatable, on the contrary, Zhao Fu can still feel the pleasure and satisfaction of the food sliding down his throat. He had the upper hand and was immediately snapped back, not because of his mistakes, but because the opponent could easily reach a higher position than him. It's like playing chess with someone else, both of whom are masters, but one has an extra set of rooks and horses than the other.

"Since there is nothing to do, then the juniors still have something to do, can you allow the juniors to retire first?" Zhao Fu knew that since the Zhao family took the initiative to send someone to find him, it would definitely not be as simple as wanting to invite him to a snack or show off his superiority.

"It's really nothing, just passing by, and I want to ask how about the clothes I picked out for you?" Zhao Pu smiled, very homely words, just like an elder who has not seen him for many years cares for his juniors, but it hit Zhao Fu's heart again.

It turned out that those sets of clothes were also sent by the Zhao family, and before entering Beijing, Cao Zhongqing told him that someone had sent several sets of clothes, but Zhao Fu didn't think too much about it, but thought it was the tailor in Lanting City. Unexpectedly, after arriving in the imperial capital, I found that these clothes not only did not lose to those gentlemen, but also faintly pressed them, pretending to be forced was naturally a pleasure, and Zhao Fu slowly got used to it.

"Very good, very comfortable to wear." Zhao Fu replied stiffly, once again falling behind, or saying that he was already a general who had all the cars and horses and artillery killed.

"Well, that's good, go back and have someone make a few more pieces for you." Zhao Pu continued to taste his dim sum unhurriedly.

Zhao Fu has no way, he is still too young, Zhao Fu can only sit on the side and keep doing self-examination. Finally, Zhao Pu put down the chopsticks, and the sound of the chopsticks being placed on the rack was simply a natural sound for Zhao Fu. Waiting for Zhao Pu to take a sip of tea, he wiped his mouth with a silk scarf.

"Actually, it's really nothing." Zhao Pu finally spoke, but he continued to make Zhao Fu have no idea where to start.
