Fang Lingxin got on the carriage, and Fang Zhongcheng followed in and asked: Father, how are you discussing with Taiwei Chu?
Fang Lingxin looked at this son with relief. The Fang family is the most talented child. Act decisively, mature and experienced. He manages the Fang family in an orderly manner. He can discuss with him many things. In the future, the Fang family will feel at ease.
Fang Lingxin smiled and said: Chu Mingtang is a smart person. He will not believe everything about me today. However, except that Liang Shangyun is completely harmless to his Chu family, it can also weaken the emperor's help. How could he not agree to our Fang family that lost the Minister of Personnel and was able to get the position of Minister of Justice.
Fang Zhongcheng said: My uncle has been removed from office by Taiwei Chu, and now he is still in a position to be punished. Who should I take the position of the father of the Ministry of Justice?
Fang Lingxin said: Let your second uncle take on this position. Since the crown prince is a child and cannot be taught, he will no longer have to worry about it in the future. Although it is already a prime minister, it is a bit inappropriate for your second uncle to serve as the Minister of the Secretariat, the law in the court does not explicitly stipulate that I will find Chu Mingtang in a few days. As long as he has no objection, Liang Shangyun and Cheng Fengzhi have been removed. Who else in the court dares to object.
Fang Zhongcheng nodded and said: The child also felt that it would be better to form an alliance with the Chu family than to serve the emperor. The emperor was old and weak. The crown prince was narrow-minded and vengeful, and he would not be able to get a big deal at all. The power in the court was better than the control of the three families of King Fang and King of Chu.
Fang Lingxin said: Cheng'er, you are right, and it is the meaning of being a father. The three families of Kings and Fang have been in charge of the government for decades. Over the past decades, the power of the Great Zhao country has become increasingly strong, but the emperor has not known who has been provoked by, so he insists on eradicating the Chu family. He doesn't think about it over the years because the three families of Kings and Fang of Chu have restrained each other and that any one can dominate the country, a balanced trend has been formed in the court. If it is broken, the Great Zhao country will be in turmoil and the people will not be able to live in peace.
What's more, the emperor and the crown prince have always hated the power of the aristocratic family. Without the two families of the King of Chu, the Fang family would be the only aristocratic family in the court. At that time, neither the emperor nor the crown prince would tolerate the Fang family being in charge of the government anymore. If they wanted to gather the power of the court, our Fang family would become their biggest thorn in their eyes. The Fang family was not as good as the two families of the King of Chu, so how could they compete with the emperor? They could only let it slaughter. Our Fang family has been passed down for hundreds of years, so how could it be interrupted by the father's incense.
Fang Zhongcheng nodded and said: What my father said is very true
Fang Lingxin asked: Cheng'er, Chu Mingtang's sons are of your generation, what do you think of them?
Fang Zhongcheng thought for a while and said: After Chu Xuan and Chu Yuan arrived at the Imperial Guard, although the child did not confront them head-on, he had also fought several times in secret. He felt that Chu Xuan was calm and steady, and he always liked to plan and then act. Chu Yuan was aggressive and bold and meticulous in his work. A few days ago, they joined forces to deal with the child. The child of the Fang family had suffered several losses.
Fang Lingxin smiled and said: Chu Xuan and Chu Yuan also know a little about this. They are indeed the dragon among people. One against two. Cheng'er, you will not lose unjustly, but don't worry, this kind of thing will not happen again in the future.
Fang Zhongcheng didn't understand: Why is this?
Fang Lingxin smiled and said: In a few days, Chu Xuan and Chu Yuan will go to the southern front camp. The Chu family members have no leader. Who will compete with you?
Fang Zhongcheng said: This is serious? They have just arrived in Beijing not long ago, why are they leaving Beijing again so soon?
Fang Lingxin said: It should be true. It may be that Chu Mingtang wants to block the Chu family's mouth. After all, a few days ago, many Chu family officials were transferred from the capital by him. He asked his son to go to the military camp to experience it. The transfer order from the Ministry of War has been sent down. He reported to be a father and was unwilling to make things difficult for Chu Mingtang on these trivial matters. He has agreed to this matter.
Fang Zhongcheng suspected: That's not right. Logically speaking, it was enough for Taiwei Chu to transfer one of their brothers to the southern front camp. At that time, his father just sent his elder brother to the western front camp, but he left his child by his side.
Fang Lingxin pays much attention to it on weekdays and has never thought about it carefully. At this time, he felt something strange when he heard Fang Zhongcheng say this, and said to himself: Doesn’t Chu Mingtang have a young son, but he is underage yet
Fang Zhongcheng knew that he was able to stay with his father back then because his father felt that he was more promising than his elder brother, so he kept him, so he said: Although the child had only met Chu Zheng, the youngest son of Taiwei Chu, once, he thought that this son was quite extraordinary, and it was definitely not a thing in the pool. Is Taiwei Chu's move another purpose?
After Chu Mingtang arrived in the capital, Chu Zheng never showed up in public, and Chu Xuan and Chu Yuanse were very popular among the children of officials. Fang Lingxin always paid attention to the two of them, and was not familiar with Chu Zheng. When his son said he had seen Chu Zheng, he hurriedly asked: When have you ever met the youngest son of the Chu family?
Fang Zhongcheng told his father about the incident with Chu Zheng on the street that day. Fang Lingxin said in a slight surprise: Do you think Chu Zheng can subdue Huo Yunju?
Fang Zhongcheng said: Yes, when the child saw Huo Yunju kicking Chu Yuan off the horse that day, he was quite afraid of Chu Zheng. If such a divine horse had not been conquered by him, he would never have obeyed a young man.
Thinking of Chu Yuan's embarrassing appearance that day, Fang Zhongcheng couldn't help but smile
Fang Lingxin didn't have the heart to laugh and murmured: At that time, Wang Lie's Huo Yunjiao was wearing a Kirin armor. He was defeated by the 13 famous generals of Da Zhao on the Royal College field. He was so embarrassed that he was young that he could only watch among the crowd on the sidelines. However, he was deeply shocked. Guo Huai was just using military force. If he really wanted to talk about martial arts, how could he compare with Wang Lie? Since Chu Zheng had already obtained the Huo Yunjiao from the royal palace, Wang Lie's Qilin armor must have been given to him. My Da Zhao is going to produce another peerless general.
The meaning of the words is not known whether it is joy or sorrow
Fang Zhongcheng also sighed: Although the child loves horses, he knows that he has never subdued the power of the Fire Cloud Horse. He heard that the Fire Cloud Horse is extremely arrogant and never mates with ordinary horses. The Fire Cloud Horse of the Old Marquis Wang was a lonely man for life. What the child saw on that day was probably Wang Mingtai from the Northern Frontier Camp captured from the Northern Frontier, but the Fire Cloud Horse was extremely rare. If this continues, it will probably be extinct.
Fang Lingxin glanced at his son dissatisfiedly. He said that everything is good here. He just loves horses and talks endlessly. What's the matter with him?
Fortunately, Fang Zhongcheng just sighed for a while and said: Since Chu Xuan and Chu Yuan were about to leave the capital, Chu Taiwei would not arrange a confidant in the Imperial Guard, and he also needed to be a person who could convince the children of the Chu family. Since Chu Zheng could subdue Huo Yunju, he must be a brave man. Although he was underage, he was both the son of Chu Taiwei and the grandson of Wang Laohou. The child thought he was the most likely.
Fang Lingxin waved his hand and said: It's okay, even if he arrives at the Imperial Guard, he will give you some points in the future.
Fang Zhongcheng was a little confused and asked: The Chu family and the Fang family have been fighting for a long time, why did he let me go?
Fang Lingxin laughed and said: Today, I proposed marriage to Chu Mingtang for you for your father. He is his second daughter Chu Xin. It is very likely that he will agree to it. If this matter is done, then you will be Chu Zheng’s brother-in-law and he will not give you face. You must give his sister some face.
The defenses between men and women in the Great Zhao State are not very strict. Ladies like Chu Xin often show up in the capital with some Chu sisters.
Chu Mingtang's foundation in the court has gradually stabilized, Chu Xin is also outstanding in appearance and generous in manners. Among the children of officials, there are endless people who want to pursue it. Fang Zhongcheng is also quite envious of Chu Xin.
But how could he let his own decisions about the marriage between aristocratic families? Besides, the Chu and Fang families have been mortal enemies in the court for many years, and Chu Xin did not pretend to behave with him. Fang Zhongcheng knew that there was no hope, so he gradually gave up his mind.
At this moment, Fang Zhongcheng couldn't help but be surprised and happy when he heard that his father had proposed marriage to the Chu family for him: Father, are you saying true?
Fang Lingxin smiled and said: What are you lying to for your father? I have seen that girl Chu Xin several times and I feel very satisfied. Cheng'er, you are not young anymore. For your father, you will find a good wife for you earlier, so that you can avoid facing your horses all day long.
When Chu Mingtang returned to the mansion, Wang Xiuhe greeted him and said with a smile: Is the Liang family busy with marriage?
Chu Mingtang sat down and said: So what if it’s lively, what, are you a little envious?
Wang Xiuhe did not hide it and said: There are some Xuan'er who is not young anymore. There are a few people in Beijing who are not yet married at the age of him. If it weren't for the war in Southern Qi and his husband went to Beijing to become prime minister, Xuan'er would have been married in Pingyuan City as early as possible. You and I might have held their grandson.
Chu Mingtang sighed: It's Ah, Lian Zheng'er has grown up and has gradually become sensible, but for his husband, he still feels that he is more popular at the time. However, Xuan'er went to the southern line camp and got married to Miss Ning's family and had to put it in Pingyuan City.
Wang Xiuhe raised her eyebrows and said: This is not OK. I am about to tell you about this. Xuan'er is also the eldest son and the eldest grandson of her father. This marriage must be held in the capital.
Chu Mingtang said: How can this be? Xuan'er and Yuan'er have been appointed as partial generals of the Southern Front Daying. They are not allowed to visit relatives within one year after taking office. As the new Grand Marshal, they cannot leave any talk. And generals at this level of the court are not allowed to enter Beijing without permission. They need to report to the Ministry of War for filing.
Wang Xiuhe said: Then discuss with Fang Lingxin. Xuan'er and Yuan'er's transfer order will be sent to them later. After leaving as usual, the husband wrote a letter to Lord Ning, saying that Xuan'er and Yuan'er went to Pingyuan City to welcome the bride, and asked Xuan'er and Yuan'er to take the Ning girl to the capital. After getting married, they would return to Pingyuan City together.
Chu Mingtang was a little moved when he was at the Liang family today. After hearing what Wang Xiuhe said, he stopped insisting and said: Just do as the wife wants.
Wang Xiuhe was a little worried and said: Xuan'er and Yuan'er have been appointed, and this matter must be reported to Fang Lingxin and Guo Huai. I wonder if they will make trouble.
Chu Mingtang smiled and said: Don't worry, madam, they will never mess with it.
Wang Xiuhe said: Why is your husband so sure?
Chu Mingtang smiled and told Guo Huai about asking for his daughter today. Wang Xiuhe covered her mouth and smiled, saying: Where is Fang Lingxin?
Chu Mingtang smiled and said: Our Chu family wants the daughter of the Guo family, and their Fang family wants to marry my Chu family Xiner.
Chu Mingtang repeated what Fang Lingxin said one by one
Wang Xiuhe was half-believing and half-doubted, and repeatedly pondered with Chu Mingtang, and after a long time, he said: No wonder my father once said that Fang Lingxin was a repetitive person. The quick turn really made me dumbfounded. The nine major families now only have the Fang family of King Chu. It is not unreasonable.
Chu Mingtang said: Mrs. also think what Fang Lingxin said is true?
Wang Xiuhe said: What he wanted to do is beneficial to the Chu family and the Fang family. Among the six ministries, only Guo Huai and Liang Shangyun were originally the emperor. It was no different to get rid of him. The power of the Ministry of Justice is far less than that of the Ministry of Personnel. Even if it is given to the Fang family, it will not fall into the hands of our King of Chu. Besides, his son Fang Zhongcheng really married my Xin'er. If he has children in the future, how dare the emperor trust him.
Wang Xiuhe suddenly burst into laughter: But in this case, who else can the emperor besides Guo Huai? The emperors of the Great Zhao Kingdom have been betrayed by others like him, but I am afraid that they have not been able to do anything before.
After more than ten days of rest, Chu Zheng's injuries have improved a lot.
Chu Lin felt sorry for her nephew, and Chu Zheng was injured in the palace again, so she couldn't help feeling a little guilty, so she sent several imperial doctors with excellent medical skills to the Chu Mansion to live.
Chu Lin was not relieved and sent the precious medicines from the palace to the Chu Mansion continuously. Ginseng is not less than a thousand years old. The snow lotus is packed in boxes, which made Wu Anran look red. This is all the dreams of martial artists. Ah, so she often came to visit Chu Zheng on the excuse, took some of them in a big way and left.
Chu Zheng couldn't stand it anymore and said to Wu Anran: Master, why not give some medicine to Ouyang Zhimin. After all, he is also your registered disciple. If his martial arts skills are too bad, wouldn't it damage your reputation?
Wu Anran felt it was reasonable, so he prepared some pills for Ouyang Zhimin to take.
The blood shadow sect has been passed down for nearly a thousand years, and there are many secret recipes accumulated, and it is hard to find only some materials. Now, with the guarantee of Da Nei Pharmacy, Wu Anran is like a fish in water, staying in the house all day long to concentrate on refining medicines.
Ouyang Zhimin is blessed. The magic sect martial arts were originally known for their rapid success. Now that there are various pills that promote their skills and Wu Anran has opened up his meridians, in just over a dozen days, the internal strength of the Blood Shadow Sect has been slightly improved.
Chu Zheng was a little depressed. He also took a lot of them, but the effect was far less obvious than Ouyang Zhimin.
Wu Anran explained that this is because he was born with the connection between the Ren and Du meridians, and he was practicing steady skills such as the Dragon and Elephant Subduing Demons. Just in terms of internal strength, Chu Zheng can be said to have entered the state of great success. It is difficult to make any major progress with medicine alone.
However, it also has its uses. Chu Zheng was hit hard by Zhao Ming and stimulated the potential in his body. After these medicines cultivate the foundation and regain the roots, it will not take long to practice the Dragon Elephant Demon-Subduing Technique to the fifth level.
Chu Zheng also received an accident from the palace, which was the healing pill of Yemen brought by Zhao Min, and also a letter from her was attached.
Chu Zheng opened it and looked at it. Zhao Min wrote it very simply, expressing her apology for Chu Zheng's injury in her palace. After that, she went to the scene a few words.
Chu Zheng didn't care, but felt that the paper used by Zhao Min was too bad, with yellow spots on it, but he didn't know that when Zhao Min wrote this letter, he remembered the words of her aunt Zhao Ming, and couldn't help but burst into tears, soaking the back of the paper.
Wu Anran was a little disdainful of the Tiandan at first, but took it over and smelled it, licked it again, and immediately changed his face and laughed dryly and said: Yemen is indeed capable, but this pill is good to save people, but in terms of promoting skills, it is far less than medicines used by a teacher.
After saying that, Chu Zheng surrendered this pill
Before I knew it, Chu Zheng's skills were restored under the dual treatment of medicine, Wu Anran and the three major internal energy worshipped by Yingtang.
The three worshippers of the Eagle Hall were quite fond of Chu Zheng and said with a smile: The Lord of the Eagle Hall has always been a weak person. The hall racked his brains to protect the safety of the Lord of the Hall, but the Lord of the Hall was able to take over the master of Yemen before he was weak. This is really amazing.
Chu Zheng looked like a child was taught, but he secretly swore in his heart that he would trample Yemen under his feet in this life.
The day of the palace excerpt is getting closer, and Chu Zheng is still concerned about the affairs of Wu Mèi Mom
Although judging from the message from Wanhualou, this Wu Mèi Niang should have nothing to do with Wu Zetian. Her father was neither a warrior nor a official. He was just an orphan adopted by Wanhualou. Because she had a jade plaque on her chest, the word "Mart" engraved on it, and the martial arts she practiced were to deceive sentient beings, she named her Wu Mèi Niang.
But Chu Zheng was still a little nervous. As soon as he recovered, he pulled Wu Anran and Zhang Bochang to Chen County.
Chu Zheng was riding an ordinary carriage driven by Zhang Bochang's disciples. Zhang Bochang also knew that this matter was of great importance. The disciple he chose was his confidant, and the carriage was also rented from the capital.
Chu Zheng touched it and couldn't find a trace of dust in the car. It was obvious that it had been cleaned several times, but the car was small and it was extremely bumpy when running. What Chu Zheng was most unbearable was that although the car had been washed, a scent of smell came from him, which seemed to be fishy and mutton, which made him feel so tight that he was vomiting.
Chu Zheng looked at Wu Anran and Zhang Bochang and saw that they looked as usual
Chu Zheng sat inside and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was used to being rich and prosperous. All the things he used on weekdays were extremely luxurious. Now he was no longer used to sitting in this civilian carriage.
After entering the city gate of Chen County, Zhang Bochang got out of the carriage and sat next to the disciple to guide him.
At a intersection, Zhang Bochang asked Chu Zheng and Wu Anran to get off the car and ordered the disciple to wait here. The three of them walked towards an alley.
Zhang Bochang led Chu Zheng and Wu Anran to a few turns, came out of the alley, and walked on another road
Chu Zheng looked at Zhang Bochang and couldn't help but secretly admire him. The old man looked cowardly, but his heart was very delicate. Even if the driver was his close friend, he was still a little wary.
Originally, Zhang Bochang could have driven the carriage here directly, but he just walked around the alley to get here. Qingtang is a spy organization, and his work is extremely hidden. So far, Zhang Bochang is obviously very competent.
From this point of view, Chu Zheng feels that he is not as good as him. Eagle Hall is essentially an underground organization. Since he is the master of the hall, he still has to learn from Zhang Bochang and be cautious in his work.
Zhang Bochang walked in front of a house door and knocked on the door.
After a while, an old man in his sixties opened the door. After the three of them came in, they closed the door and bowed to the three of them. Zhang Bochang nodded to him and led Chu Zheng and Wu Anran to the living room.
Chu Zheng sat down in the main seat, Wu Anran and Zhang Bochang sat down on his left and right
Logically speaking, Wu Anran is Chu Zheng's master and should not sit at the bottom, but Wu Anran is also surprised. He blew his beard and stared at Chu Zheng in the Chu Mansion. He rarely made a sound as soon as he left the Chu Mansion gate. He followed Chu Zheng, and everything was decided by Chu Zheng.
Chu Zheng was a little uncomfortable at first, but over time, the two of them became tacit.
The three of them sat in the room for a while, but no one came.
Zhang Bochang couldn't sit still, so he accused Chu Zheng, got up and walked towards the inner room.
After a while, a girl in green walked out, poured tea for Chu Zheng and Wu Anran, and waited on the side with her hands down.
Chu Zheng looked at her and saw that her skin was white, her eyebrows were thin, her eyes were pretty good. Maybe Chu Zheng, the maid here, didn't care. She took a sip of water and waited patiently for the owner to come out.
After waiting for a while, Chu Zheng was a little impatient and wanted the girl in green to go in and urge her, but she saw her looking at her with a slight surprise.
Seeing Chu Zheng looking at her, he quickly lowered his head, his cheeks were slightly red, but he secretly looked at Chu Zheng from time to time
Chu Zheng found it interesting and suddenly asked: Who are you in the mansion?
The woman seemed to be startled, twisted her body, glanced at Chu Zheng, and said: If you say goodbye, the little girl is a maid in the mansion
The woman's voice was a little low, but it was quite pleasant. It sounded like a whisper in the ears of a person. Chu Zheng couldn't help but feel aroused in his heart. Suddenly, he found that the woman was actually very beautiful. She hadn't noticed it before, especially her figure was even more graceful. Even the wide blue dress could not be concealed. When she glanced at her, she was even more charming and charming.
Mèi's dynamic appearance?
Chu Zheng suddenly became clear about his mind. What's wrong with him? He has been facing Liu Qingru for so long, but he doesn't feel like he is shaking. This woman is not as good as Liu Qingru in terms of appearance. How could she make herself so difficult to control herself?
Chu Zheng suddenly smiled and said: Are you Wu Mèi Niang?
Fang Lingxin looked at this son with relief. The Fang family is the most talented child. Act decisively, mature and experienced. He manages the Fang family in an orderly manner. He can discuss with him many things. In the future, the Fang family will feel at ease.
Fang Lingxin smiled and said: Chu Mingtang is a smart person. He will not believe everything about me today. However, except that Liang Shangyun is completely harmless to his Chu family, it can also weaken the emperor's help.

They are not allowed to visit relatives within one year after taking office. As the new Grand Marshal, they cannot leave any talk. And generals at this level of the court are not allowed to enter Beijing without permission. They need to report to the Ministry of War for filing.
Wang Xiuhe said: Then discuss with Fang Lingxin. Xuan'er and Yuan'er's transfer order will be sent to them later. After leaving as usual, the husband wrote a letter to Lord Ning, saying that Xuan'er and Yuan'er went to Pingyuan City to welcome the bride, and asked Xuan'er and Yuan'er to take the Ning girl to the capital. After getting married, they would return to Pingyuan City together.
Chu Mingtang was a little moved when he was at the Liang family today. After hearing what Wang Xiuhe said, he stopped insisting and said: Just do as the wife wants.
Wang Xiuhe was a little worried and said: Xuan'er and Yuan'er have been appointed, and this matter must be reported to Fang Lingxin and Guo Huai. I wonder if they will make trouble.
Chu Mingtang smiled and said: Don't worry, madam, they will never mess with it.
Wang Xiuhe said: Why is your husband so sure?
Chu Mingtang smiled and told Guo Huai about asking for his daughter today. Wang Xiuhe covered her mouth and smiled, saying: Where is Fang Lingxin?
Chu Mingtang smiled and said: Our Chu family wants the daughter of the Guo family, and their Fang family wants to marry my Chu family Xiner.
Chu Mingtang repeated what Fang Lingxin said one by one
Wang Xiuhe was half-believing and half-doubted, and repeatedly pondered with Chu Mingtang, and after a long time, he said: No wonder my father once said that Fang Lingxin was a repetitive person. The quick turn really made me dumbfounded. The nine major families now only have the Fang family of King Chu. It is not unreasonable.
Chu Mingtang said: Mrs. also think what Fang Lingxin said is true?
Wang Xiuhe said: What he wanted to do is beneficial to the Chu family and the Fang family. Among the six ministries, only Guo Huai and Liang Shangyun were originally the emperor. It was no different to get rid of him. The power of the Ministry of Justice is far less than that of the Ministry of Personnel. Even if it is given to the Fang family, it will not fall into the hands of our King of Chu. Besides, his son Fang Zhongcheng really married my Xin'er. If he has children in the future, how dare the emperor trust him.
Wang Xiuhe suddenly burst into laughter: But in this case, who else can the emperor besides Guo Huai? The emperors of the Great Zhao Kingdom have been betrayed by others like him, but I am afraid that they have not been able to do anything before.
After more than ten days of rest, Chu Zheng's injuries have improved a lot.
Chu Lin felt sorry for her nephew, and Chu Zheng was injured in the palace again, so she couldn't help feeling a little guilty, so she sent several imperial doctors with excellent medical skills to the Chu Mansion to live.
Chu Lin was not relieved and sent the precious medicines from the palace to the Chu Mansion continuously. Ginseng is not less than a thousand years old. The snow lotus is packed in boxes, which made Wu Anran look red. This is all the dreams of martial artists. Ah, so she often came to visit Chu Zheng on the excuse, took some of them in a big way and left.
Chu Zheng couldn't stand it anymore and said to Wu Anran: Master, why not give some medicine to Ouyang Zhimin. After all, he is also your registered disciple. If his martial arts skills are too bad, wouldn't it damage your reputation?
Wu Anran felt it was reasonable, so he prepared some pills for Ouyang Zhimin to take.
The blood shadow sect has been passed down for nearly a thousand years, and there are many secret recipes accumulated, and it is hard to find only some materials. Now, with the guarantee of Da Nei Pharmacy, Wu Anran is like a fish in water, staying in the house all day long to concentrate on refining medicines.
Ouyang Zhimin is blessed. The magic sect martial arts were originally known for their rapid success. Now that there are various pills that promote their skills and Wu Anran has opened up his meridians, in just over a dozen days, the internal strength of the Blood Shadow Sect has been slightly improved.
Chu Zheng was a little depressed. He also took a lot of them, but the effect was far less obvious than Ouyang Zhimin.
Wu Anran explained that this is because he was born with the connection between the Ren and Du meridians, and he was practicing steady skills such as the Dragon and Elephant Subduing Demons. Just in terms of internal strength, Chu Zheng can be said to have entered the state of great success. It is difficult to make any major progress with medicine alone.
However, it also has its uses. Chu Zheng was hit hard by Zhao Ming and stimulated the potential in his body. After these medicines cultivate the foundation and regain the roots, it will not take long to practice the Dragon Elephant Demon-Subduing Technique to the fifth level.
Chu Zheng also received an accident from the palace, which was the healing pill of Yemen brought by Zhao Min, and also a letter from her was attached.
Chu Zheng opened it and looked at it. Zhao Min wrote it very simply, expressing her apology for Chu Zheng's injury in her palace. After that, she went to the scene a few words.
Chu Zheng didn't care, but felt that the paper used by Zhao Min was too bad, with yellow spots on it, but he didn't know that when Zhao Min wrote this letter, he remembered the words of her aunt Zhao Ming, and couldn't help but burst into tears, soaking the back of the paper.
Wu Anran was a little disdainful of the Tiandan at first, but took it over and smelled it, licked it again, and immediately changed his face and laughed dryly and said: Yemen is indeed capable, but this pill is good to save people, but in terms of promoting skills, it is far less than medicines used by a teacher.
After saying that, Chu Zheng surrendered this pill
Before I knew it, Chu Zheng's skills were restored under the dual treatment of medicine, Wu Anran and the three major internal energy worshipped by Yingtang.
The three worshippers of the Eagle Hall were quite fond of Chu Zheng and said with a smile: The Lord of the Eagle Hall has always been a weak person. The hall racked his brains to protect the safety of the Lord of the Hall, but the Lord of the Hall was able to take over the master of Yemen before he was weak. This is really amazing.
Chu Zheng looked like a child was taught, but he secretly swore in his heart that he would trample Yemen under his feet in this life.
The day of the palace excerpt is getting closer, and Chu Zheng is still concerned about the affairs of Wu Mèi Mom
Although judging from the message from Wanhualou, this Wu Mèi Niang should have nothing to do with Wu Zetian. Her father was neither a warrior nor a official. He was just an orphan adopted by Wanhualou. Because she had a jade plaque on her chest, the word "Mart" engraved on it, and the martial arts she practiced were to deceive sentient beings, she named her Wu Mèi Niang.
But Chu Zheng was still a little nervous. As soon as he recovered, he pulled Wu Anran and Zhang Bochang to Chen County.
Chu Zheng was riding an ordinary carriage driven by Zhang Bochang's disciples. Zhang Bochang also knew that this matter was of great importance. The disciple he chose was his confidant, and the carriage was also rented from the capital.
Chu Zheng touched it and couldn't find a trace of dust in the car. It was obvious that it had been cleaned several times, but the car was small and it was extremely bumpy when running. What Chu Zheng was most unbearable was that although the car had been washed, a scent of smell came from him, which seemed to be fishy and mutton, which made him feel so tight that he was vomiting.
Chu Zheng looked at Wu Anran and Zhang Bochang and saw that they looked as usual
Chu Zheng sat inside and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was used to being rich and prosperous. All the things he used on weekdays were extremely luxurious. Now he was no longer used to sitting in this civilian carriage.
After entering the city gate of Chen County, Zhang Bochang got out of the carriage and sat next to the disciple to guide him.
At a intersection, Zhang Bochang asked Chu Zheng and Wu Anran to get off the car and ordered the disciple to wait here. The three of them walked towards an alley.
Zhang Bochang led Chu Zheng and Wu Anran to a few turns, came out of the alley, and walked on another road
Chu Zheng looked at Zhang Bochang and couldn't help but secretly admire him. The old man looked cowardly, but his heart was very delicate. Even if the driver was his close friend, he was still a little wary.
Originally, Zhang Bochang could have driven the carriage here directly, but he just walked around the alley to get here. Qingtang is a spy organization, and his work is extremely hidden. So far, Zhang Bochang is obviously very competent.
From this point of view, Chu Zheng feels that he is not as good as him. Eagle Hall is essentially an underground organization. Since he is the master of the hall, he still has to learn from Zhang Bochang and be cautious in his work.
Zhang Bochang walked in front of a house door and knocked on the door.
After a while, an old man in his sixties opened the door. After the three of them came in, they closed the door and bowed to the three of them. Zhang Bochang nodded to him and led Chu Zheng and Wu Anran to the living room.
Chu Zheng sat down in the main seat, Wu Anran and Zhang Bochang sat down on his left and right
Logically speaking, Wu Anran is Chu Zheng's master and should not sit at the bottom, but Wu Anran is also surprised. He blew his beard and stared at Chu Zheng in the Chu Mansion. He rarely made a sound as soon as he left the Chu Mansion gate. He followed Chu Zheng, and everything was decided by Chu Zheng.
Chu Zheng was a little uncomfortable at first, but over time, the two of them became tacit.
The three of them sat in the room for a while, but no one came.
Zhang Bochang couldn't sit still, so he accused Chu Zheng, got up and walked towards the inner room.
After a while, a girl in green walked out, poured tea for Chu Zheng and Wu Anran, and waited on the side with her hands down.
Chu Zheng looked at her and saw that her skin was white, her eyebrows were thin, her eyes were pretty good. Maybe Chu Zheng, the maid here, didn't care. She took a sip of water and waited patiently for the owner to come out.
After waiting for a while, Chu Zheng was a little impatient and wanted the girl in green to go in and urge her, but she saw her looking at her with a slight surprise.
Seeing Chu Zheng looking at her, he quickly lowered his head, his cheeks were slightly red, but he secretly looked at Chu Zheng from time to time
Chu Zheng found it interesting and suddenly asked: Who are you in the mansion?
The woman seemed to be startled, twisted her body, glanced at Chu Zheng, and said: If you say goodbye, the little girl is a maid in the mansion
The woman's voice was a little low, but it was quite pleasant. It sounded like a whisper in the ears of a person. Chu Zheng couldn't help but feel aroused in his heart. Suddenly, he found that the woman was actually very beautiful. She hadn't noticed it before, especially her figure was even more graceful. Even the wide blue dress could not be concealed. When she glanced at her, she was even more charming and charming.
Mèi's dynamic appearance?
Chu Zheng suddenly became clear about his mind. What's wrong with him? He has been facing Liu Qingru for so long, but he doesn't feel like he is shaking. This woman is not as good as Liu Qingru in terms of appearance. How could she make herself so difficult to control herself?
Chu Zheng suddenly smiled and said: Are you Wu Mèi Niang?
