"Wait for me here." Jiang Li said and left the study.
He quickly returned to the study and had a wooden box in his hand. "This is a copy of the ancestral technique. My father gave it to me when I was a knight apprentice." He put the wooden box on the table, "You take it with you in person.
Take a trip and find a chance to chat with Xi Meier alone."
"If she really cares about Qi'er and the child, she should know that her existence hinders them. The Jiang family will never allow people of unknown origin to enter the family. If rebels or foreign spies are allowed to sneak into the Jiang family, it will cause destruction to the family.
Sexual assault.
For example, the deposed Tang Qiong had a rebellious heart, which ultimately caused misfortune to the Tang family and the royal family, and also implicated the innocent prince. The Jiang family has ancestral rules that do not tolerate such people. And she is suspected of such a person.
I can't bear that a talented descendant of my family's bloodline will be buried. I hope that the child can learn the authentic family skills. As long as she agrees to my conditions, I can give this child the skills.
The condition is very simple, that is, she will disappear forever with her secret, and she will never affect the child in the slightest! I can also consider letting the child join the Jiang family's side line and accept his current name."
Jiang Li spoke every word very seriously and tried his best to express his meaning clearly, for fear that Jiang Nai might misunderstand.
"Well," Jiang Nai hesitated as he picked up the wooden box, "don't you really need to tell the old man?"
He has followed Jiang Tong for many years and knows that Jiang Li's decision may not necessarily be in line with Jiang Tong's wishes and may cause Jiang Tong's dissatisfaction afterwards.
"No, I am the head of the family now. If father blames me, I will bear all the consequences. After all, the child is the descendant of the second brother. It's okay if he doesn't have the ability. If you have talent, you can't bury it. I will do something for the second brother.
Let's do it." Jiang Li showed his majesty as the head of the family.
"Yes, I'll do it now." Jiang Nai naturally wouldn't confront Jiang Li, so he walked out of the study with the wooden box and left Anguo County that day.
All big families have similar traditions. People with unknown origins are not allowed to enter the family, especially the wives and concubines of the direct descendants of the family. They have to go through heavy scrutiny. Just like Hai Mengji, Shaodian Luan is not sure about her origins, regardless of
No matter how much he liked her, Ding Kui only gave her the title of concubine.
Ding Kui also tested Hai Mengji, confirmed her identity and origin, and also passed on to her the old and unimproved version of the Ding family's fighting qi skills.
Hai Mengji hasn't seen Ding Kui for a while, and her fighting spirit cultivation has begun to stagnate. After all, she is just a half-baked knight, and her foundation is not solid enough. Without the help of talents, she needs a learning process.
After repelling the attack of his own army, Ding Kui spent several days under Xixuan City, but still had no good way to capture the city.
Another early morning, the morning light was forcing out the darkness, and a quiet village revealed its vague outline, with roofs covered with weeds, courtyards, crooked beams and columns, barren fields, and a scene of broken walls and ruins.
With a rustle, seven soldiers sneaked into the end of the village, separated in several directions, moved close to the corner, and went in to check each room to see if there was anyone in the village at the southeast corner of Xixuan City.
They always leave someone on guard outside to prevent everyone from ambush in the room.
After walking through more than half of the village, the group of soldiers found nothing unusual. They gradually relaxed their vigilance and began to communicate with words instead of gestures. "There is no one here, it is safe!" "I will go to the house to the east, and Lao Li will go to the front to take a look.
"I can go to the roof and observe the situation in the whole village."
"Okay, huh? What is this? Be careful! Pay attention, everyone!"
A bearded soldier suddenly shouted.
Phew, a figure jumped down from the rafter and struck at the bearded soldier with a long red sword.
"Nima, I accidentally breathed out some air and blew off some dust, and you could have noticed it!" This was Jiao Mingguang's voice.
It turned out that the First Battalion of the 75th Division was dispatched again, just like when Ding Kui fought a scout battle with the Meng Army at Xiaxuan Pass, sending small-scale troops to fight in the wild.
"There are enemies here!"
"Retreat, leave quickly!"
The leader of his own army's scouts soon discovered that he was no match for Shaodian's army. Jiao Mingguang only needed four or five encounters to kill Big Bearded, and his combat power had obviously reached the peak of level four.
The most powerful force in this team is the initial level four combat strength.
Five or six more Shaodian troops emerged from the corner of the village and pounced on their own scouts.
"Where to go! Hehe, stay here and give me some military merit, grandpa." Jiao Mingguang smiled strangely and rushed towards the leader of his own army.
Upon hearing the leader's greeting, all the troops immediately turned around and ran towards the end of the village, specifically choosing the areas they had checked. This was an experienced scout team, and it seemed that this was not the first time they had been ambushed by the Shaodian Army.
Whoosh, Jiao Mingguang struck out with a ray of sword light, knocking down an already sloping earth wall in front of him, blocking two of his own troops in front of him.
"Sangniu! You lead the men to trap the remaining few. If one of them gets away, I'll settle the score with you." He confidently waved his sword to attack two of his own soldiers.
This time he led a small team to ambush in the village, and his squadron was responsible for the entire southeastern side of Xixuan City.
"Oh, these thieves run very fast." A big man replied angrily. Apparently his name was "Sang Niu".
At that moment, the leader of his own army, Hengjian, held Jiao Mingguang's long sword and said urgently: "Run quickly, I will trap him." He was also a shield-breaking knight, and he barely had the strength to parry, so that he would not be instantly killed by Jiao Mingguang.
With a clank, Jiao Mingguang's strong attack was blocked. The leader of our own army had a bloodstain on his body. Another much younger soldier of our own army took the opportunity to climb over the fallen earth wall and ran towards the end of the village without looking back. His
His boss fought tooth and nail to give him a chance to escape, so he must escape!
"Holy shit! Don't run away, you two have a fight." Jiao Mingguang was anxious.
Just now he told his men not to let the enemy escape, but now he let one of them escape.
"Hmph!" The leader of his own army was hit by another sword, but he gritted his teeth and refused to back down, standing firmly in front of Jiao Mingguang.
"Mourning the cow! Mourning the cow!"
"Boss, I'm in trouble here too!" The big man was fighting with a soldier who was using a soft whip, but he couldn't defeat him for a while.
The other five team members were outflanking three of our own soldiers. They were a bit far away from the young soldier who was escaping from Jiao Mingguang's side, so they couldn't help at first.
"The captain is here!" one of the team members screamed.
I saw a majestic figure running into the village.
"Captain Fan, hurry up! One of them escaped." Jiao Mingguang calmed down and quickly attacked the vital point of his own leader.
"Bastard!" Fan Yuzhen cursed, loosened his grip, threw away the long ax, and his running speed suddenly increased.
At this time, several fast horses quickly approached the end of the village. They were the people left by our own scout team outside to meet them. They used the method of separating people and horses many times to relax the enemy's vigilance and escape from the enemy's ambush circle.
"How cunning, hehe. Fortunately, I am also prepared." Fan Yuzhen took off a crossbow from her back as she ran.
Phew, she suddenly jumped up, clatter, onto a wall, raised her crossbow and took aim. The young soldier was only a dozen steps away from the end of the village.
She hooked her finger, and whoosh, the crossbow arrow flew out from the string.
The young soldier was about to run out of the village. His companions had arrived with several empty horses on their backs. He could escape the enemy's pursuit by just jumping on the horseback. Unexpectedly, there was a sharp pain in his vest and something pierced his back.
And pass through the chest.
"Ah!" He opened his arms and waved a few times, ran two steps with inertia, and finally threw himself weakly to the ground.
Fan Yuzhen did not stop her movements. She pulled out a lever from her waist, buckled the crossbow rack, pulled the bow string, then released the lever, pulled out a crossbow arrow from her back with her backhand, inserted it into the arrow trough, and aimed the crossbow again.
This time she aimed at her own troops who were responding outside the village, about 400 steps away.
The scouts of our own army who came to investigate happened to be a small team of ten people, and three of them stayed outside the village to respond. The young soldier's arrow hit had alerted the three of them, and when they discovered that Fan Yuzhen was taking aim, they were so frightened that they turned around and ran away.
Beating the horses desperately.
Phew, another arrow, "Ah!" Another soldier screamed and fell off his horse.
Poof, Jiao Mingguang's long sword pierced the chest of his own army leader, "Captain Fan is mighty!" He did not forget to flatter Fan Yuzhen.
Fan Yuzhen stared intently at the other two fleeing enemies, and continued to move her hands, pulling the string, loading the arrow, and aiming. The standard movements of a crossbowman were not unfamiliar.
Phew, "Ah!" Another soldier fell down.
The last soldier was so startled that he tilted his body and suddenly got under the horse's belly. He turned out to be a master of riding skills.
"Hey!" Fan Yuzhen took aim again without panicking.
Hey, this arrow hit the horse's butt. The horse's hind hooves were raised high, and then it fell to the ground. The soldier under the horse's belly also fell out. Then there was no suspense anymore. A crossbow arrow shot through the soldier's chest.
neck.
"Hahaha, this crossbow is really easy to use!" Fan Yuzhen raised the crossbow excitedly, "That pretty boy Ding Cai helped me a lot this time. I have to thank him properly when I get back." It turned out that Ding Cai borrowed this crossbow for her from the special operations camp.
Come.
She was also amazed when she saw a crossbow for the first time. An arrow within 500 steps was more powerful than an ax with all her strength. She fell in love with this weapon instantly. However, the crossbow she saw was the equipment of the special operations battalion.
She wanted it but no one gave it to her.
Every time she entered the Xixuan City Camp, she ran to watch the special operations camp training. Once she was bumped into by Ding Cai who was going to the special operations camp to deliver orders. Naturally, Ding Cai kept bragging in front of her, saying that he could return to Hengda at any time.
Fucheng got ten and eight crossbows.
How could the simple Fan Yuzhen know that Ding Cai was bragging without any explanation, so she immediately pestered Ding Cai and begged him to get a crossbow for her to play with.
Ding Cai gave up when he came. Even if he went back to Hengfu City, he wouldn't be able to get the crossbow so easily. It was a weapon strictly controlled by Ding Kui.
He secretly ran to Ding Kui and begged the master to give him a crossbow. Ding Kui found out that he wanted it for Fan Yuzhen and did not bother to pay attention to him, leaving him to think of a solution by himself.
Finally, he approached Dou Xiaoqi, and after pestering him for a long time, he finally borrowed a crossbow and a bag of crossbow arrows, and agreed to return the crossbow arrows after using them.
Of course, Ding Cai was bragging, and his relationship with Fan Yuzhen was very ordinary. He was only willing to lend Fan Yuzhen half a bag of crossbow arrows, and kept half of the bag of arrows to bribe other officers.
