At the Qin Feng Martial Arts School, Lei Hu was leaning on a lounge chair, leisurely hiding under the shade of a tree to enjoy the cool air.
"Master, my disciple is going to get married in half a year. This is a wedding invitation!"
Li Gongfu stood respectfully aside, handed a red and colorful wedding note with both hands, and said sheepishly: "I hope the master will come and attend as a disciple and elder!"
"Oh, you are in your twenties now, and you are indeed of age to get married!"
Taking the wedding invitation, Lei Hu opened it and chuckled: "Is this the wife you chose for you?"
In the feudal era, there was no such thing as free love. It was all about "the parents' orders and the words of the matchmaker." It was pretty good to be able to secretly meet the woman a few times before marriage and have a general understanding of her temperament.
As for more, forget it.
"It was my dad's idea!"
Li Gongfu's face was full of joy, and he nodded and replied: "Dad said that his body is not very strong anymore, and he wants to arrange the marriage for his disciple in advance to avoid any accidents and further delays!"
Lei Hu nodded in agreement. Li Captou's body had been weakened by the plague three years ago. Although he had saved his life with his help, his body's vitality had been exhausted after all. Without the elixir, it would have been difficult to survive.
To restore his rapidly declining body.
He is still alive now because Lei Hu couldn't stand Li Gongfu's pleas and regularly gave him some nourishing and strengthening elixirs, otherwise he might have died long ago.
As for more, that's impossible. The Song Empire was tightly controlled by the Divine Court. Any extra-ordinary means, such as completely curing Li Captou's failing body and extending his life for decades, would probably attract the underworld and the underworld.
There is a high probability that Shenting's intervention will not only fail to save people, but may even involve him.
Apart from anything else, his relationship with the Li family and his son has not yet reached this close level.
To put it more bluntly, Capt. Li's lifespan has been determined. Unless he is willing to go straight to the underworld, modify his life and death record for him, and fight against the pressure of Shenting's encirclement and suppression, the final result is hard to say, and neither Lei Hu nor
How sure you are.
Don't look at Bai Suzhen's forced entry into the underworld and take away Xu Xian's soul. It was the result of the protagonist's aura and the secret protection of the Shenting boss. Otherwise, is the underworld really so easy to break into?
It is estimated that Bai Suzhen's strength at that time was only in the early stage of Mahayana. None of the ten Yamas in the underworld were either immortal-level powerhouses, judges, or black and white impermanence.
Aside from gossip, Capt. Li feels that he has only a few more years to live. His son Li Gongfu is over 20 years old. If they don't get married, he probably won't be able to see his son Li Gongfu get married.
Furthermore, feudal ethics are not a joke. It is a matter of course for a father to die and his son to obey filial piety. Even if these rules do not restrict the lower class people very much, if Li Gongfu still wants to be an official in the future, he must
obey.
Although there is no need to observe filial piety for three years, one year is indispensable.
By that time, Li Gongfu had already become an older young man, and he still didn't know what changes would happen in the yamen by then, but Capt. Li couldn't wait, and he didn't want to hinder his son.
Lei Hu could see this clearly, and he quite agreed with Li Captou's approach.
"Which family is the woman from?"
He didn't ask about the details, only asked with a smile: "Is it a powerful family named Xu in Qiantang?"
"How can we?"
Li Gongfu waved his hand hurriedly, shook his head and said: "She is just the eldest daughter of a drug dealer in the city. My disciples dare not compare themselves to those ladies from the famous ladies. I really can't bear it!"
Are you kidding? Although he has become famous throughout Yuhang Mansion in the past three years and has done some practical and good deeds that are applauded by people, his status is only a head catcher at the official level. How can he be seen by the powerful people in Qiantang County?
Unless he is now an official and can still be valued by the prince and hold power, the powerful families in Qiantang County, even if they want to win over him, will at most push out the concubine of the family to marry him.
It’s not that Li Gongfu looks down on concubines from wealthy and powerful families. As long as they are well-educated, they are still ladies in everyone!
It's just that as the most powerful arrester in the county government, he knows a lot about the secret activities in the backyards of wealthy and powerful families in the county. For example, the lives of children of common concubines are mostly not very good. Let alone a perfect upbringing, whether they can meet
It’s hard to say without a twisted mentality. Li Gongfu wouldn’t dare to joke about the rest of his life.
On the other hand, the daughter of a merchant in the county town matched his origin and status at this time. It was relatively easy to investigate his temperament, words and deeds, and at least he didn't have to worry about marrying a house troubler.
"You look very satisfied with your marriage partner this time!"
Lei Hu smiled and said: "Getting married is a matter between two people and two families. As long as you are happy with it, your father agrees with it!"
The wedding note clearly stated that Li Gongfu’s marriage partner this time was still Xu Jiaorong.
It's just that he didn't ask about the woman's situation. Li Gongfu was just his registered disciple. His father, Li Captou, was still alive. As a master, Lei Hu didn't need to be too lenient.
But Li Gongfu's words also revealed some information.
Obviously, Xu Jiaorong's father did not die early, and she did not have to work hard to support the Xu family. Otherwise, no matter how generous Mr. Li was, he would not easily let his son marry a wife with a large oil bottle.
.
Lei Hu was not interested in delving into these matters. He just wanted to know that Mr. Li was still marrying Xu Jiaorong.
Seeing that Li Gongfu was happy but silent, he smiled and waved his hands and said: "Okay, okay, I will definitely be there on the day you get married. I will also drive all the martial arts disciples there. You kid, please don't complain about me in private.
Big business!"
"how could be?"
Li Gongfu called Qu Dao: "Master and my junior brothers and sisters can come, it is to give me face, how can I complain?"
After chatting and joking for a while, Li Gongfu left with a happy face. Lei Hu turned his attention to the new disciples and said with a smile: "Practice your martial arts hard, and in the future I will be as powerful and respected as your senior brothers!"
"Respect the master's order!"
A group of disciples agreed in unison, all of them with cheerful faces, obviously in a good mood. Being able to attend the senior brother's wedding banquet and have a good meal was a big deal for these guys who had just escaped from food and clothing.
What a good thing.
"Okay, okay, go ahead and do whatever you have to do. You haven't finished your homework today, so don't think about being lazy and getting through!"
He waved his hand and rushed the gathered disciples to finish their homework. Lei Hu was in a pretty good mood.
The group of young boys and girls in front of him are already the fourth batch of disciples he has accepted since he opened the Qin Feng Martial Arts School. They have just started training for only a year, and they are all still very young.
He himself didn't expect that the random move of wanting his brother to interact with several children of destiny would bring him a lot of surprises.
Most of Li Gongfu's disciples joined the yamen and worked as agents, becoming senior brother Li Gongfu's right-hand man and the strongest base.
It can be said that as long as those junior brothers who are police officers are there, even if Li Gongfu encounters Xiao Qing's teasing again, he will not be beaten by the county magistrate casually. This is the difference between having powerful confidants and not having them.
.
Although these first batch of disciples who became police officers were all confidants of senior brother Li Gongfu, they were not completely overshadowed by Li Gongfu.
Although their abilities in investigating crimes are average, their abilities in pursuit and capture are extremely outstanding. If they work together, even Li Gongfu will not be able to resist them. They are definitely the backbone of Qiantang County's fast team of police officers.
The county magistrate also valued the first batch of disciples who came from martial arts schools as agents, and did not ignore them because of Li Gongfu's popularity.
The second and third batch of disciples who left the martial arts school did not join the county government. Not to mention whether the county government could accommodate so many people, even if it could accommodate it, it would not be possible for all of them to be occupied by the disciples who left the Qin Feng martial arts school.
If that really happens, it will be hard to decide who will keep the word in the county government in the future.
With Lei Hu's ability, although the second and third batches of martial arts disciples who left the martial arts were young, their strength was not bad at all, and the weakest ones were all in the early stage of innateness.
These disciples did not go to the yamen to work as agents, but were scattered in various towns in Yuhang Prefecture. They either opened their own martial arts schools or joined famous martial arts schools as martial arts masters. There were also those who opened escort bureaus or joined the big escort bureaus. They were all the core backbones.
Some of them were recruited by powerful people in various towns and famous gangs, and became leaders of nursing homes or worshipers. In short, they all did quite well.
Their outstanding abilities and strength made Qin Feng Martial Arts School and Lei Hu famous. Many wealthy families sent their children to learn martial arts, and even more senior officials from the escort bureaus and martial arts schools sent their children to further their studies.
Lei Hu was not polite at all to these rich local tycoons, and directly offered a high tuition fee of one hundred taels a year. Even so, he could not stop these rich people and martial arts masters from enthusiastically pursuing Qinfeng Martial Arts.
.
Even Lei Hu did not expect that with the outstanding performance and strength of the martial arts disciples, his reputation became quite famous in a certain circle, which actually brought him a lot of luck.
What an unexpected surprise!
You must know that within the Kyushu Barrier, Shinto rules are powerful, and Shinto resources such as luck and incense will directly turn into one's own strength.
Although he did not receive much luck, Lei Hu still took this opportunity to easily advance his own strength in the Kyushu barrier where Shinto rules are strong and gods can easily manifest, reaching the early stage of Mahayana and consolidating his realm.
Got to be very solid.
It can be said that his actions unintentionally created an alternative way to collect luck, and it does not conflict with the power of incense and incense that Shenting values most.
If in the future, the province where Qiantang is located, or even the entire Jiangnan area, or expanded to the entire Song Dynasty Empire, will have his disciples walking around, and they will also be recognized by the local powerful and the government, making Lei Hu the name of the martial arts master.
Even louder, I have collected extremely rich luck, and maybe I can use this to grow and improve my strength by leaps and bounds!
