Chapter 12: Guard Selection (1)
At the door of Biyue Ju, Zhong Wuxian looked at the little maid at the door, and said with a smile: "Sister Lu'er, I'm here to find my aunt!"
Lu'er looked at Zhong Wuxian and nodded with a smile, "Madame has been looking forward to you coming for a long time, come in quickly!" said that he pushed open the door and let Zhong Wuxian into the house, and after Zhong Wuxian entered, the affinity on the maid's face disappeared immediately, and said to the four maids: "You guys are waiting outside!"
The four girls were also very aggrieved when they heard it, but they couldn't say anything.
"Sister Lu'er, none of my four little maids have had dinner, let them go to the side room to eat something, and when I come out, I'll look for them, okay?" Zhong Wuxian naturally didn't want to see his people wronged.
Lu'er looked at Zhong Wuxian's serious appearance, so she had to nod, "Okay, second young master, you go in first, I'll arrange it!"
Closing the door, Lu'er looked at the fourth girl, "What are you still doing in a daze, come with me!" You guys, you really met a good master, the second young master's temper is notoriously good!"
Dongmei lowered her head, "Madame is the one who loves her!"
...............
Zhong Wuxian walked around the hall, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Zhongli and Feng Chime snuggling down the stairs, looking at his father, Zhong Wuxian said, "Father, aunt!"
With a smile on his face, Feng Chime walked quickly downstairs to Zhong Wuxian's side.
Zhongli snorted coldly, "Bastard, call mother!"
Before Zhong Wuxian could speak, the wind chime turned his head and glared at her husband fiercely, "What do you care about so much, I think it's good to call it like this, hate, don't listen to him, you can call it whatever you want!"
"You said that your body and bones are already weak, what kind of retreat are you doing, you are worried about killing me, you see, how thin have you become, you are not allowed to do this in the future?"
"I see!"
"Okay, hurry up and come over for dinner!" Saying that, the wind chime pulled Zhong Wuxian and walked towards the room, the table in the room was already full of good food, and the wind chime pulled Zhong Wuxian to sit beside him, pointing to the dishes on the table, and introduced.
"This braised pig's trotters are made with the hind hooves of the second-order demon beast Snow Pig, the taste is good, you can taste it, and this one is cooked with the best elixir, which has the effect of strengthening the body, eat more!"
I didn't hear Zhong Wuxian speak for a long time, as soon as Feng Chime looked up, and then saw her husband leaning against the door, "Eh, aren't you going to the hall to dine with your father and them?"
"Madam, I also want to eat braised pig's trotters, Nanling cauliflower, and ice field dace!" Zhongli said and walked in, closed the door, and sat down opposite the wind chime.
This meal allowed Zhong Wuxian to completely see the other side of this brave waiting, and after twenty years of modern life, Zhong Wuxian also felt a faint warmth, but it didn't belong to him from beginning to end, so this meal was very awkward.
After eating, Zhongli still had no intention of leaving, but said coldly, "You come to the study with me!"
Feng Chime glared at her husband, gave him a threatening look, and then patted Zhong Wuxian's shoulder with a smile, "You can go without worry, it's okay!"
Zhong Wuxian followed Zhong Li to the study on the second floor, and when he entered it, Zhong Wuxian found that this study was the only special room in this attic, and the furnishings looked much more serious, "Close the door!"
Zhong Wuxian turned around and closed the door, came to the opposite desk, sat down slowly, leaned lightly on the chair, and looked at Zhong Li, "Father, is there something you are looking for me?"
"I heard that you've made a lot of noise recently!" Zhong Li looked at his son with interest, he didn't have any expectations for Zhong Wuxi, he didn't have any expectations from beginning to end, and he let himself go, and the successor of the next generation had already been determined, that is, the genius son of Zhong Fu, Zhong Wuji, only fourteen years old, was now a late stage of cultivation as a samurai, and he was already qualified to study at the Tianfeng Kingdom Academy.
"Father refers to?" Zhong Wuxian said lightly, seemingly careless.
"Tiandanfang City, Elixir Xuan, you bought so many medicinal materials, this morning, your little maid went there again, and what she brought should be the pill, I want to know if it is the pill you refined?" Zhong Li stared at Zhong Wuxian's eyes, at this moment he was suddenly a little surprised, he couldn't see through his son, he couldn't see any emotional expression in his eyes, and he couldn't guess what he was going to do.
"Is it important that I refined it?" Zhong Wuxian asked rhetorically.
Zhongli also laughed when he heard this, "Haha, that's a good point, it's really not important, but now I believe that those pills are all refined by you, but refining pills should only be refined by warriors who have cultivated true qi, and you can't cultivate in the first place, right?"
Zhong Wuxian said lightly: "I don't want to explain about this matter, but since you said that alchemy is only for samurai, then you should treat me as a samurai! I don't know if my father has anything else? If not, I'll go back, after all, I'm a little tired after more than ten days of retreat!"
"Attack me, with all your might!"
Listening to his words, Zhong Wuxian also shook his head helplessly, "All your strength, what are you kidding, go down with all your might, let alone this person, if you go down with one finger, I'm afraid this Zhong Mansion will be destroyed." Standing up, Zhong Wuxian transformed the true yuan in his body into a wisp of true qi, and raised his hand, "Fingers are like a blast!" A finger pointed out towards Zhong Li's eyebrows, and the speed was deliberately slowed down a lot, looking bland.
Zhongli raised his hand to block it, his fingers collided, and his true qi disappeared in Zhongli's palm, Zhongli nodded, "The strength of the mid-stage warrior is really good, although I don't know how you solve the problems of your body, but since you can cultivate, then cultivate well, strengthen your body, don't let Ling'er worry about your body anymore!"
"I see!" Zhong Wuxian nodded, straightened his clothes, and sat down in his chair.
"Do you have anything to say about the selection of guards? The old man originally wanted to cancel your qualification for the selection of guards, but I still want to hear your thoughts, the cost of the guards is responsible for themselves, so!" Zhongli paused as he spoke, "Oh, by the way, you are still an alchemist, don't worry about the cost, but you still have to be cautious about the matter of the guards, and the first round of guard selection will start tomorrow, you can go to the martial arts field to have a look." ”
Zhong Wuxian nodded, "If you are a guard, there are twelve people, no one is missing, my Qinglian Residence is just lacking some miscellaneous people, as for tomorrow, I will go back." ”
The two looked at each other, and after thirty seconds, Zhongli said lightly, "Do you have any plans?"
Zhong Wuxian raised his eyelids, with a hint of deep gaze in his eyes, "Planning, what do you mean? The indefinite talent is good, it is worth cultivating, my words are still the same as before!" Zhong Wuxian expressed his meaning very vaguely, he didn't have any thoughts about the title of Shen Yonghou.
Zhongli nodded, "Okay, I know, although you don't have the title of knight, but there is one thing you still need to do, next year we will find a family business for you in the Imperial City, you should understand this, right?" said Zhongli said with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Little bastard, what do you do now?"
Zhong Wuxian paused for a moment and coughed lightly, "Father, this kind of thing is not in a hurry!"
Zhongli sighed, and said earnestly: "Hey, you must know, this is not a question of whether we are in a hurry or not, but a problem of those people in the royal family, our Gucheng is located in a key position, with 200,000 soldiers, and the people of the Feng family are naturally not at ease, so they will take such means to bring the relationship closer, the eldest son generation is only you and the two of them, and they are indefinitely obsessed with martial arts, and it is too early to think about these, so this kind of big thing can only be done by you, and only you can do it!"
Zhong Wuxian had already scolded this old bastard countless times in his heart, "Bastard, Zhong Wuxian is obsessed with martial arts and can't consider marrying a wife, so I can only come?"
"You say!" Zhong Li looked at Zhong Wuxian with a smile, "Hehe, this is the last thing you did for Zhong Fu!"
"First, the age, it must be fifteen to twenty years old, not too young!"
Zhong Li's face was different, and the strange look in his eyes made Zhong Wuxian's heart furious, "Yes!"
"Second, after finding a good target, I want to meet first, and after understanding, if both parties have no opinions!" Zhong Wuxian said secretly in his heart, "Then it can be regarded as a blind date, the otherworldly version of the blind date, I hope there will be a strange feeling." ”
"You won't be blind all the time, will you!" Zhong Li glanced at Zhong Wuxian with a hint of suspicion.
"Heh, there are so many girls in the Imperial City, how can they all be unsightly!" Zhong Wuxian also knew, although it was a marriage with the royal family, but every time it was not necessarily a princess of the royal family, it could also be other princesses who were given the surname Feng.
"Yes, then, what about the third request?"
"The wedding banquet should be held according to my wishes, this is the last requirement!" After all, Zhong Wuxian has twenty years of experience in modern times, and it is also very important to see this kind of thing as marriage, although the grade of this body is a little smaller, but it is better to develop well, the children of the Jiuhua Continent, who are married at the age of thirteen, are many, after all, everyone practices martial arts, coupled with the aura of pregnancy, the development should also be faster, I think those sons and brothers in the city who are in the same grade as Zhong Wuxian are already frequent visitors to Changchun Tower (Gucheng Spring Building)!
