Zhao WuXian wasn't in the attic because he had been invited to the main hall by the Matriarch.
Gu Changqing brought the people from the government office to visit and discuss the transfer of the Lu family's shops and fields with the Jingguo Public House.
The Lu family was one of the eight prominent families in Suzhou.
The other seven were Wang, Gu, Shen, Zhang, Zhou, Wen, and Li.
They were either dignitaries, wealthy merchants, or had passed down their poems and books.
As for the Murongs, they belonged to the aristocratic families of the pugilistic world, so they were not included.
"Old Furen, Your Highness, the Lu Family runs a restaurant, thirteen inns, and a thousand acres of land outside the city. These are the land deeds.”
Gu Changqing politely placed a small box on the table.
The old madam gave the accountant a look. The accountant opened the box and carefully checked the title deed and land deed.
This would be the source of income for the Jingguo Public House.
She was naturally very concerned.
The Zhao family was actually a big family in the county. Otherwise, the Lu family would not have targeted them.
After moving to Suzhou, he brought some loyal servants over.
The accountant was one of them.
After he finished reading it, he nodded at the old lady.
"That's very thoughtful of you, Officer Gu!" The old madam smiled.”
"In addition, Old Furen, Your Highness, the Lu family still has eight pleasure boats and three gambling dens in the dark, doing shady business.”
The old madam frowned slightly and said lightly,""Our High Duke's Public House will not touch these shady businesses.”
These two kinds of businesses were quick to make money and profiteering.
But his reputation was not good.
She said,"If the government wants it, then take it. If the government doesn't want it, then I'll have to trouble you to sell it for the High Duke's Public House."”
Gu Changqing had made a contribution by 'exposing' Lu Chengyun's case.
His promotion before the new year was a sure thing.
He came to the residence more frequently and knew that the one who made the decisions in the Jingguo Public House was still the old madam.
He nodded in agreement.
He didn't disturb them and left with the bailiffs.
"WuXian, you'll take care of these land deeds and houses!"”
The accountant and the other servants were surprised.
The old madam's words implied that she wanted Zhao WuXian to be the head of the household.
However, it was within expectations.
The old madam was already old.
As for the Duke of Jingguo Zhao Shiji, perhaps he was really hurt, he basically ignored the residence and even started reading Buddhist books.
The old madam had wanted to remarry him, but who knew that he would find a woman on the bed? He was so scared that he almost killed her.
He shouted,"Don't hurt me".
Clearly, once bitten, twice shy.
Let alone sharing a bed.
The women in the residence were slightly abnormal, and he suspected that they were spies.
When the old madam saw this, she could only shake her head and sigh," My poor son." She let him go.
In this way.
The old madam could only rely on Zhao WuXian.
"Grandma, you're still in charge of the house. I want to go out and travel first." Zhao WuXian declined.”
"You want to travel?"
"What if something happens again?" The old madam frowned.”
"Grandma, don't forget that I'm a Xiantian expert now!”
"Besides, didn't grandma always say that the edge of a sword is forged through sharpening?" Zhao WuXian laughed.”
"You have an idea after falling into the water.”
The old madam sighed and shook her head.”
"Just don't rely on your little ability to stir up trouble, bully the good, and do whatever you want.”
"However, in the martial world, there are no fewer treacherous people than in the imperial court.”
"If you encounter someone unreasonable, don't be soft-hearted.”
the old madam reminded.
As the daughter of a general, she could be considered half a child of the martial world. She had long seen through the martial world and the matters of the court.
"Don't worry, Grandma!" Zhao WuXian said.
"If you meet any female confidantes, bring them back for Grandma to see.”
The old madam smiled and narrowed her eyes." It's okay if you don't meet them. In two days, Grandma will invite talented women from all over Suzhou to be guests. I'll pick two for you."”
"Ugh!"
Zhao WuXian couldn't help but laugh.
Was she being urged to get married?
Escaping the old madam's nagging, Zhao WuXian returned to the attic.
Wang Yuyan is teaching Azhu to practice "Small Non-Phase Skill."
The two women looked completely different, but each had their own good looks, making this pavilion especially beautiful.
A'Zhu's [Minor Non-Phase Method] quickly entered the door, the internal force transformation was quite smooth.
When she was teaching A'Zhu, Wang Yuyan noticed the wisp of pure Yang zhenqi that Zhao WuXian had left in A'Zhu's dantian.
However, she pretended not to notice.
By the time A'Zhu was almost done practicing, it was already evening.
Zhao WuXian examined her. Just like Wang Yuyan, she was in the Embryonic Breathing realm, and could be considered a second-rate expert in the pugilistic world.
A'Zhu's face flushed red.
Under Zhao WuXian's gaze, she felt like she had been seen through. There were no secrets to speak of.
"Since Yu Yan gave you the Minor Non-Phase Method, then I'll give you the Shifting Stars!" Zhao WuXian said.”
He passed the Shifting Stars that Murong Fu had given him to A'Zhu.
"Ah?"
A'Zhu was shocked.
She looked at Zhao WuXian in surprise and quickly waved her hand, stuttering,"This, Your, Your Highness, is too, too precious.”
"What's so precious about it?" Zhao WuXian said.
A'Zhu panicked." This is Shifting Stars. It's an Earth Rank martial technique. It's a secret of the Murong family. A'Zhu is just a servant girl. How dare she…"
"So what?" Zhao WuXian said lightly. The servant girls of the Murong family can't train, but my family can.”
"Your, Your Highness…"
What should he do?
His Highness is too good to me!
He can't possibly want me…
Ah Zhu's face was red, and she was at a loss.
Shifting Stars!
In the martial world, who hadn't heard of the famous saying,"Give him a taste of his own medicine"?
Wang Yuyan pursed her lips and glanced at Zhao WuXian, a little unhappy.
Why did this bad guy treat Ah Zhu so well?
Humph!
And you said you didn't have feelings for A'Zhu?
Wang Yuyan felt sour in her heart. She had just reached an agreement with Ah Zhu. She couldn't possibly fall out with him in the blink of an eye, right?
Moreover, if she was jealous every time, she would always seem like a small woman and not magnanimous enough.
Wang Yuyan pouted.
Unhappy!
Wait a minute!
He gave Shifting Stars to A'Zhu, could it be that he saw that there was something wrong with Shifting Stars?
Yes!
Based on his understanding of Murong Fu, he would probably do something to the secret manual.
This bad guy, giving the secret manual to A'Zhu, was he testing her?
However, A'Zhu said that Murong Fu and Gong Zhiqian were the ones who did it. She didn't know if it was true or not.
He definitely couldn't practice such a secret manual that he didn't know if it was real or fake.
Zhao WuXian and Wang Yuyan's hearts were connected. Sensing her thoughts, he was a little speechless.
No, it's not as complicated as you think.
He just wanted to return the critical hit.
The reason why he gave it to A'Zhu was because after Critical Hit Return, he could teach Wang Yuyan something better.
Although it couldn't be a critical hit.
However, Wang Yuyan's super high comprehension in martial arts would be of help to him.
Wang Yuyan's talent in comprehension was maxed out. Even the current Zhao WuXian couldn't compare to her.
