Chapter 336 Never Regret(1/3)
Chapter 336 No Regrets
"Brother, in this Huashan sword debate, are you willing to compete for it?"
It was still early for the Mid-Autumn Festival, so Guo Mo simply took a detour to Bianliang City to see his father, Zhao Kuo.
It has been eight years since I came to Bianliang City. The last time I saw the old man was when he went north to the capital three years ago. Guo Mo really missed him a little.
Dad is very stubborn at heart. He always wants to stay in Bianliang City, or go to Luoyang to live for a while when the mood strikes, or go to Gongyi to sweep graves or visit graves, but he refuses to live in the capital for a long time.
But in the past eight years, Guo Mo has taken a different approach, abandoning the previous traditional practice method, and instead treating going to court to discuss affairs, reviewing memorials, and even eating and sleeping as a form of practice.
No one knows whether his practice is of any use, but Guo Mo has been practicing for eight years, and the cycle has come and gone without interruption.
"Second brother, you know that this time it is probably still a dispute between the master and the elders. Although there is one less 'supernatural power', Brother Zhou must have been involved in nature over the years, and he is not a newbie like me.
Comparable."
That's right, Guo Jing is also forty years old this year. In his forties, Guo Jing has just reached the pinnacle of success, which is more than ten years earlier than the hero Guo in another time and space.
Is it still the competition between "Eastern Evil", "Western Poison", "Southern Emperor", "Northern Beggar" and "Chinese Naughty Boy", without even a single person to disrupt the situation?
Guo Mo thought secretly in his heart.
Good guy, as soon as the upper lip touches the lower lip, Guo Ping becomes a prince. Although he is not a prince, he is a rare one in the Song Dynasty.
Only the youngest daughter, Zhao Xi, often comes to talk and eat with her, which is a sense of family happiness.
"Tell me which star in the sky made you old. My son will come forward and poke it out for you so that you can beat him eight times a day."
Everyone was eating and drinking while listening to Chen Xuanfeng vividly telling what happened to Guo Mo back then.
"She is a fourteen-year-old girl now. Her own mother also contracted an illness and passed away last year. It is quite pitiful for her to stay in the palace with a bad old man like me."
Mu Nianci next to her couldn't hold back her tears anymore when she heard her adoptive father's words, and fell down one by one. Guo Xiang quietly handed over her silk handkerchief.
"The fiefdom of Guo Yao, the third child, is in Luoyang. It's not very far from here. At least during the holidays, I can ask that boy to come and join you in the fun..."
Guo Mo and his wife naturally went to meet the Supreme Emperor Zhao Kuo first. The old man was seventy-two years old, but he had developed a habit of drinking three taels of "hero drunk" every day.
After hearing what "Dongxie" said, Guo Mo didn't have much interest anymore.
Seeing the old eunuch in front of him, Guo Mo couldn't help but be stunned. He could feel that this old eunuch's realm had also broken through. He was a stable and top master.
"Jing'er, you and Xiao Qi grew up together. They are more than real brothers. You have helped him a lot over the years. Thank you very much -"
This is not only due to the upgraded version of the "Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms", but also because of Guo Jing's decades of hard training.
After all, he brought Huang Rong here with him. Guo Mo was not as presumptuous as in previous years, or maybe he was already forty years old after all.
For martial arts practitioners, under the innate realm, the biggest role of this kind of "viper" courage is not to increase one's skill, but to help break through the shackles of one's own talent, which can have unexpected effects when breaking through in a larger realm.
They are brothers and sisters in name, but in Guo Mo's eyes, they are no different from his own children.
"Xiao Qi, Jing'er, I remember that I had a son, who was not uncommon on Peach Blossom Island back then. How is he doing now?"
Chen Xuanfeng didn't dare to think about it.
Guo Xiang, who was standing next to him, suddenly blushed with embarrassment, while Mu Nianci also glared at his adoptive father with some annoyance.
Yang Tiexin felt miserable, Mu Nianci felt uncomfortable, but what about Yang Guo himself?
Yang Guo and Guo Xiang left Peach Blossom Island anyway and refused Chen Xuanfeng's invitation to accompany them. They just said that the master had other important matters to explain and they needed to deal with them first.
Seeing the old man and the young man fooling around, Yang Tiexin, Mei Chaofeng and Mu Nianci rarely stopped them.
"Your Majesty, you are trying to offend a minor minister. It is the minor minister's duty to assist His Majesty the Emperor. Besides..."
“Stop—
Guo Mo thought about it, that was really the case. If Guo Yao went to Luoyang, wouldn't he live in Prince Yan's Mansion?
When Zhao Simo arrived in Guizhou, he naturally lived in the palace of the "Luo Family Ghost Kingdom".
The old eunuch transferred out of nowhere, and after not seeing him for a few years, the old guy actually became much leaner, and his face became even more rosy. His hair was originally full of white, but now it was mixed with black and white.
Guo Jing and Wu Nantian also met old Zhao Kuo many times, especially when they were on Peach Blossom Island. When Wu Nantian was a teenager, he still received red envelopes from Zhao Kuo.
"Really? Why have I never heard my parents talk about it?"
"How can I not? I haven't seen my uncle for many years. I just wanted to let him have a drink. Besides, didn't he arrange so many things for my parents? Today we are even -"
As for Guo Mo, Chen Xuanfeng no longer listed Guo Mo as his target many years ago.
Finally, Yang Tiexin let out a long sigh and stopped trying to pull Yang Guo up. Instead, he slumped down on the chair.
Old Zhao Kuo doesn't understand the things in the world, but he has lived for more than seventy years, and he is Guo Mo's father. Doesn't he still know his son?
"I'm going to give you a present for my father——"
It's a pity that except for a few servants of Sasou, it no longer has the popularity and bustle of the past. The people who lived here back then would probably not be able to come back under normal circumstances.
Nowadays, Guo Mo can be regarded as a successful hegemon, and he is unparalleled in the world in martial arts, and is surrounded by two hundred loyal "jinyi" guards.
"Old man, go and ask Prince Jing and Nan Tian to come over and add a few more dishes. I'll have a nice drink today."
"Xi'er has met daddy, ah - your majesty is also there? I've met your majesty -"
Resentment?
Miss you?
Maybe, it's both.
"My eldest brother Guo Jing and second apprentice Wu Nantian also came here together. They have arranged to stay in another palace and did not bother you."
"Get up, I gave you the courage of the 'viper' back then, but it was just a matter of chance. The fact that you are able to reach the ultimate level now is entirely the result of your own hard work. Everything here is just your own chance."
What Zhao Xi said was true. In her mind, she had seen her brother several times. As for her sister-in-law, she seemed to have seen her before but not yet.
After waking up that year, Feng Heng also began to practice martial arts. Although he had never really fought against an enemy, his level had broken through to the third level.
"Really? Uncle, this jar of wine belongs to you, and Xiang'er will be responsible for pouring it for you today—"
If Guo Jing still wanted to refuse the reward from the Supreme Emperor Zhao Kuo, his second brother said so. Even if Guo Jing wanted to speak again, he had to swallow it in the end.
Listening to the words and the sound of gongs and drums, Lao Zhao Kuo understood what Guo Mo just said so simply.
Mei Chaofeng, on the other hand, mainly protected Guo Mo's family, whether on Taohua Island or later in Bianliang City.
Yang Guo said, tears welling up in his eyes.
We haven't seen each other for eight years. When Guo Mo moved the capital, Princess Chaoyang was just over six years old, while Guo Mo was thirty-two years old.
There are two kings in one sect, one "King Jing" and one "King Changping". It can be said that the entire Song Dynasty is now the same!
Yes, two of the three older sons were arranged next to their father. Are they planning to let their sons fulfill their filial piety for them?
"My request is not too excessive. Your sister is also fourteen years old this year. She probably likes boxing and kicking after hearing too many stories about you since she was a child. She has also practiced with my guard for several years.
."
Due to the presence of female relatives and the differences in seniority, this family banquet still adopted the traditional meal sharing system under the deliberate arrangement of Lao Zhao Kuo.
Peach Blossom Island, Songfeng Pavilion.
There were only four people in Guo Mo's trip, Guo Mo, Huang Rong, Guo Jing and Wu Nantian. They were all strangers, so Guo Mo took them directly to live in the palace in Bianliang.
A few years ago, when the Supreme Emperor Zhao Kuo went north to the capital, the old eunuch did not go with him. He said that his retreat had reached a critical moment, so he stayed in the palace in Bianliang. It seemed that he had really gained a lot.
Guo Mo picked up the cakes on Zhao Kuo's table, put them in his mouth and started chewing them. He didn't have the slightest consciousness of becoming an emperor, and even Huang Rong who was standing aside couldn't help laughing.
"What I want is, can you take her away, teach her kung fu, and find her a good match in the future? I will have nothing else to worry about in this life."
At least the palaces of these three sons are all at the palace level. So, is it appropriate for the future fiefdoms of Xun'er and Shi'er to be placed in Hangzhou and Yinchuan?
"Dad, some of your grandchildren are getting older now. I think it's better to let them each have their own land."
Yang Guo and Guo Xiang went to "Fulongju".
"Haha, Xiao Xiang'er, hurry up and pour a bowl of wine for me. When I'm happy, my uncle will tell you interesting stories about your parents."
"You, you, didn't I say that you, my nephew, are still a young man with great achievements, but you don't even give him a reward? Are you reluctant to give up that little salary?"
As a woman who grew up in the palace, even Zhao Xi has never encountered intrigues and intrigues, so she can't help but be a little cautious in her words and actions.
Guo Mo's sister is naturally the daughter of Lao Zhao Kuo, named Zhao Xi.
"Jing'er, in front of me, don't talk about 'the emperor' or 'emperor' or anything like that. I said that you are Xiao Qi's brother, and that is my son, Zhao Kuo."
Guo Xiang, who was eating and drinking nearby, heard this and hurriedly put down her chopsticks and nodded apologetically to Mu Nianci with a smile.
"Haha, go ahead. Grandpa, my body is still very strong. After you and Xiang'er get married in two years, and you have a boy and a girl, they will be sent to Peach Blossom Island. Grandpa can still help you take care of them."
"If brother feels that he is not at ease, he must be more strict with Ping'er from now on, practice martial arts diligently, learn more about the art of war, and give him more opportunities to do any tasks."
Three of the four older princes were arranged to leave, so the remaining current King of Yan, Guo Yi, naturally had no choice but to stay in the capital.
"If you really drink to your heart's content, I will see with my own eyes the stories of your second mother, third mother, and your father, as well as your mother's and their 'Three Beauties of Martial Arts'."
Hahaha--
On this day, Yang Guo knelt down without saying a word. Yang Tiexin and Mu Nianci were so surprised that they quickly tried to pull him up.
"Dad, Ping'er is twenty-two years old this year. He is already married. He has also practiced kung fu well. I am afraid that in just two or three years, he will be able to break through to the first-class level."
To be continued...
