There are many guest rooms in Wu Mansion, which can fully accommodate Zhang Long and his party.
As soon as they arrived, Zhang Sheng arrived with several of his disciples.
The old gentleman had inconvenient legs and feet due to his age, so he walked a little slowly. He was also accompanied by Li Zhizhou, a great scholar with both calligraphy and painting skills who brought his whole family to Yuanjiang when Zhao Kang was still making a fortune in Qi State.
The county has settled.
"Master National Preceptor!"
"Sir, here you go, sit down and have a cup of tea. Thank you for your hard work on the journey, sir."
Zhang Sheng said with a smile, "It's nothing hard. Since it's your happy event, Master Imperial Master, we have to come and have a glass of wedding wine."
"At that time, let's have a few more drinks!" Zhao Kang smiled and greeted the group of scholars enthusiastically.
Compared to Zhang Long and others, they were undoubtedly a little reserved, but now they were a little excited to see Zhao Kang in person.
If it weren't for the wrong situation, I would have dragged Zhao Kang to ask for advice.
"Mr. Li, are you still used to living in Yuanjiang County? I heard that boy from Gao Quan say that you go to the cement factory for a walk from time to time. Do you miss the days when you were working?"
Looking at Li Zhizhou, Zhao Kang joked.
"No way!"
Li Zhizhou blushed and said, "I just went to take a look."
Zhao Kang laughed, and then said, "When the wedding banquet comes, please help me and the ladies draw a portrait."
Zhao Kang felt a little regretful that he didn't have a camera. It would be a pity not to record such a happy event.
So I could only ask Li Zhizhou, a great scholar with superb painting skills, to draw one for me.
"No problem, don't worry, Master National Preceptor!"
While a group of people were talking, the steward of the Wu Mansion came in and said respectfully, "Sir, an official from the Ministry of Rites came to invite you to come."
"Okay, let him wait for a moment."
Zhao Kang got up and called Qin Yu
Feng greeted Zhang Sheng and others for himself, and then left the Wu Mansion. On the way, he asked the official of the Ministry of Rites what he wanted.
The official of the Ministry of Rites hurriedly said, "Master of the State, the person from Jingguo who came to congratulate you has arrived. He is in the State Guesthouse, so Master Fang asked the official to come and invite you."
Zhao Kang raised his eyebrows and said, "I can go to the State Guesthouse myself. You can quickly ask Mr. Fang from the Ministry of Etiquette to inform His Majesty to come to the State Guesthouse as well, along with Mr. Li Yuan, Minister of War."
The official nodded quickly and agreed, "I will obey my orders."
Arriving at the State Guesthouse first, Zhao Kang saw Wu Tianhu and his party and greeted with a smile, "Senior, General Gao Chen, long time no see!"
"National Division!"
Gao Yuan ran over excitedly and gave Zhao Kang a strong bear hug.
"What a boy! Your cultivation has grown so fast!"
Seeing Zhao Kang and Wu Tianhu's eyes flashed, he sounded a little surprised. He had his arm broken before and lost his energy and blood. It would be difficult for him to make any further progress in this life.
But the realm is still a solid third-grade middle level, but now facing Zhao Kang at the same level, I actually feel a strong sense of oppression.
Zhao Kang chuckled, "Luckily, we can be considered a real master now, right? Do you still feel that Hongxue's trust is inhumane?"
"Brat."
Listening to Zhao Kang's teasing, Wu Tianhu couldn't help but sigh with a smile in his heart. In just a few years, he had climbed from the fourth rank to the middle level of the third rank.
Although it was because of the help of Ye Hongxue, himself and others, it was enough to prove that this kid's understanding of martial arts was indeed terrifyingly high.
"Who are these two?"
After chatting for a while, Zhao Kang
Then he looked at the other two unfamiliar faces.
Both of them looked young, in their early thirties.
At this moment, everyone hurriedly saluted.
"Shang Yunguan, the Minister of the Ministry of Military Affairs, has met King Zhao!"
"Chen Liu, the Minister of Household Affairs, has met King Zhao!"
Zhao Kang understood that these two people should be the officials supported by Wu Guanhai.
Both Shangyunguan and Shangyunguan were a little excited. They saw a living person today!
Returning the gift to the two of them, Zhao Kang said, "Come on, let's go in and talk. Our Majesty will be here soon. So, go to the Wu Mansion and ask someone to bring two bottles of wine, and tell them that I want them."
Instructing a person from the State Guesthouse to run errands, everyone entered the back room.
After sitting down, Zhao Kang said, "Your Majesty, can't you leave just yet?"
Chen Maokai nodded, "Now that the country has just settled down, everything is waiting to be done. His Majesty needs to make decisions on all matters big and small. He basically only sleeps for two hours a day."
"Before I came, I asked your Majesty and the Imperial Preceptor to apologize for not being able to drink your wedding wine. I will have a nice drink with you when His Majesty appoints the Queen."
Zhao Kang sighed, "Your Majesty, he is under too much pressure."
Jingguo was almost destroyed. Although the country has now stabilized, its strength has been greatly reduced. This burden is really not light!
Wu Tianhu said helplessly, "No, although he looks free and easy on the surface, he can't get out of that level in his heart. That's why he works diligently all night long every day."
Zhao Kang fell silent, he only found out about this later.
At the beginning, Qi and Zhou were attacked by Long Han and Huo En, and the imperial capital city was destroyed. The armies of the two countries rushed into Huajing City and went straight to the palace.
But they only saw the corpses of countless concubines in the harem. Those people did not die at the hands of the enemy.
Up.
Instead, he died under Wu Guanhai’s sword!
Instead of being humiliated and killed by the enemy, Wu Guanhai chose to kill him with his own hands!
Because those people are the concubines of his father, Emperor Wu Rulong, he will never let them be insulted!
The atmosphere was tense for a while, and then someone from the State Guesthouse came to report.
"National Preceptor, Your Majesty and Lord Li are here."
Everyone stood up quickly, Xiao Xuance and Li Yuan walked in together, and Zhao Kang introduced them one by one with a smile.
Xiao Xuance sat down, looked at Wu Tianhu, and smiled gently, "It's a pity that Emperor Jing didn't come."
Wu Tianhu's heart thumped. The person in front of the Empress' Zen throne was now the Emperor of the Qian Kingdom. By saying such words at this time, could it be that he had some request for Jing Guo in his heart?
Today's Jingguo is not the same as before, and he has to live completely under the protection of Qianguo.
To put it bluntly, if the new emperor in front of him suddenly wants to destroy Jingguo, Jingguo's current strength may not be enough to fight against the country.
Therefore, Wu Tianhu was a little uneasy and tried to say, "Your Majesty, do you have anything you need to tell your Majesty? Your Majesty, please tell me and I will convey it to you."
"Senior, you're welcome. You are half a martial arts master, so you are my elder. There is no need to be so formal."
Xiao Xuance smiled and said with some pity, "I originally thought that Your Majesty would also come back, so I drafted a new alliance letter. After all, many things in the previous alliance between Qian Jing and Qian Jing were just verbal agreements."
"Now that both countries have changed their owners, I thought it would be better to take this opportunity to make up for all the previous gaps."
"The previous alliance was signed between the late emperor of your country and my sister, and was brokered by the imperial advisor and Ye Hongxue. I have no control over future events, but as long as I am the emperor of the Qian Kingdom, the relationship between the two countries will never change! "
