At night, in the empty backyard, Zhou Buyi picked up a small and exquisite red-tasseled spear and began to wave it around casually. His small face was extremely serious.
Sister Peach sat on the steps under the eaves, propping up her chin and watching with a smile. She had noticed that the Little Lord had changed completely a month ago.
He had started practicing martial arts, but in secret. He didn't have a master to guide him, so he just asked someone to forge a bright silver spear that suited his body size.
However, Peach's expression changed as she looked on. She felt that something was wrong.
"This…"
Whoosh!
The tip of the spear whizzed past and circled around the crescent moon like lightning. The fierce force shocked Peach. Was this still a child?!
The whistling sound of the wind was so strong that it almost crushed the trees. When did the Little Lord become so powerful?!
A moment later, Zhou Buyi spread his small hands. The mortal world had nothing to do with him. He threw the gun on the ground and stopped practicing!
You have practiced the Nameless Spear Technique. Strength 1, Constitution 1.
In fact, it was just to farm attributes.
Soon, he stood up and practiced a set of military boxing. After ten minutes, he was done.
You have practiced Military Boxing, Strength 1, Deportment 1.
Alright, posture.
What was the use of a child's manners?
After practicing the entire set, he walked up to Sister Peach and revealed a bright smile. He pouted and said,""I'm so tired!"
"It's only been a short while and you're already tired." Sister Peach hugged his head lovingly and suppressed the doubts in her heart at the same time. It was a good thing that the Little Lord had become so powerful. There was nothing to worry about.
Although Peach was just a servant girl, she was born smart and could see through the chaos of the current situation and the changes in the world.
Zhou Buyi had a tough life. His parents had passed away a few years ago, so he had moved into his uncle Liu Xian's house. After he was discovered to have the potential to be a child prodigy, Liu Xian had always wanted to scheme against him. In short, he did not treat him as his own.
It felt like he was waiting for the right price to sell Little Lord Buyi.
After snuggling in Peach's arms for a while, Zhou Buyi suddenly raised his head and said with a smile,""Sister Peach, you should go back and prepare your luggage. We might be leaving Jingzhou soon.”
"Ah? Why?"
Hearing this, Peach felt uneasy. Could something have happened?
"Don't worry about that. Listen to me.”
Zhou Buyi wrapped his arms around her waist, then suddenly started throwing tantrums in a childish voice,""I'm sticky all over. I want to take a shower!”
"Alright, I'll ask them to prepare hot water. I'll go make some food for the little master.”
"I won't! I want Sister Peach to help me wash it!"
" Little Lord, you've grown up. You're no longer a seven or eight-year-old child…" Peach looked at him lovingly and smiled bitterly.
"I won't! I want Sister Peach to help me bathe! I don't care! I still want to shower with you!"
Zhou Buyi immediately threw a tantrum and pulled Sister Peach's hand, a sly smile on his face.
"I really can't do anything to you."
Sister Peach was so gentle that she couldn't refuse at all. She asked the servants to boil water and went to the room to prepare everything. Although the Jing State Donghuang wasn't an extremely important official, the expenses in the residence were much better than those of ordinary families.
Liu Xian doted on this little nephew of his, so he would naturally take whatever he wanted.
……
As for how Zhou Buyi knew that he was going to the north.
It was very simple. When he was in Guandu, he had once boasted shamelessly in the academy about ten victories and ten defeats. He had also said that Cao Cao would definitely defeat Yuan Shao and make him utterly defeated.
At that time, it was a joke among many scholars in Xiangyang, but after the results came out, it slapped everyone's face and was now regarded as a good story.
Such a matter would definitely reach Cao Cao's ears.
After all, although this era was chaotic, news from all over the world would not be delayed. After all, Cao Cao's methods and vision were ahead of all the other dukes. While he poured most of his energy into the northern battlefield, he also paid attention to various news from Jingzhou.
Originally, Zhou Buyi wasn't certain. However, after hearing the news from the north, he was basically certain.
……
Xiangyang County, the capital.
The people from the north were not ordinary. The chief registrar of the military in the capital was equivalent to Cao Cao's secretary.
Yang Xiu.
Yang Biao's son, Yang Biao, was a Grand Commandant. He had a respected status and a wide family network. His disciples were all over the world. Moreover, Yang Xiu had been intelligent since he was young and was also known as a prodigy. Therefore, sending him here could be considered as getting to know Zhou Buyi in advance.
However, Yang Xiu was extremely talented, but because of this, he was arrogant. However, he did have the capital to be arrogant.
"Ancestor De is famous. Is there anything else besides paying a visit?”
Liu Biao was old and was already at the end of his life. He held the main seat and raised his cup as he smiled at Yang Xiu.
There weren't many people at the banquet. Cai Mao and Cai Zhong were present, Zhang Yun was at the last seat, and Yang Xiu was at the first seat on the left.
When Liu Biao said this, a sharp look appeared in his eyes.
"The land of Huainan is now in the hands of my lord. He went south to Wan City to surrender to Zhang Xiu, and Jingzhou no longer has a barrier.”
Yang Xiu held his head high and puffed out his chest. His speech was extraordinary as he said in a clear voice,"I won't hide it from you, Ming Gong. This time, Dezu has brought my lord's intention to mend relations and is on good terms with Ming Gong.”
"Oh?"
Liu Biao frowned. Why would Cao Mengde be so kind?
He has been coveting our Jing state for a long time.
Yang Xiu continued,"However, I only asked Ming Gong for an unimportant person."”
"Who is it?" Liu Biao raised his eyebrows.
"Prodigy Zhou Buyi."
