Zhou Jingxuan said: "The first street in the central city, what is it for?"
"I'm curious, just ask." Xia Qingchen said nonchalantly.
"Oh." Zhou Jingxuan didn't think much and brought Xia Qingchen to the Zhou Mansion in a happy mood.
Zhou Mansion covers an area of tens of square miles, and the left and right courtyard walls cannot be seen to the end. There are countless guards guarding the courtyard walls, making it difficult to enter easily.
"Yes, it's more grand than the royal palace." Xia Qingchen praised.
The palace in Liangjing is not as big as the Zhou Mansion.
"Young Master Wang is making fun of you." Zhou Jingxuan said: "The Zhou Mansion is a family of alchemy, and most of the places in the mansion are used for alchemy, so it looks a bit big, but in fact it is not prosperous."
"Based on the strength of the family, our Zhou family can only be considered as just entering the first-class threshold in the Zhongyun realm. The real wealthy family belongs to the nine major feudal lords."
Zhongyun Realm and Liang Realm are different.
Liangjing is divided into one hundred and eight domains, but Zhongyunjing divides the world into nine powerful ministers who have made great contributions to saving the country, and makes them marquis.
That is the true super-rich clan, which controls a territory, has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and whose family will be passed down from generation to generation!
"I'm humble." Xia Qingchen looked at the busy traffic at the door and the celebrities from all walks of life waiting to come to visit him, and smiled.
The status of Zhou Mansion in Zhongyun Realm is definitely not low!
"Go and see my father first." Blue Flower Fairy said, "I must let him reward you heavily."
Inside the Zhou Mansion.
In front of a study room.
"Miss, are you back too?" the housekeeper at the door asked.
also?
Zhou Jingxuan said in surprise: "Is father in there?"
"Here we are, the young master is back too, and his friends are also here," the housekeeper said.
"Oh." Zhou Jingxuan pushed open the door and walked in. In the bright study room, a kind and fat middle-aged man was laughing and chatting with two young people.
The middle-aged man is dressed in brocade clothes and has a rich face. He is the lord of the Zhou Mansion, Zhou Jingxuan's father, Zhou Bingkun, and one of the people with the highest level of alchemy in Zhongyun Realm.
Its strength has reached the point of refining quasi-spiritual medicine.
As for the two young men, one was in his early twenties, and his appearance was somewhat similar to Zhou Jingxuan's, but they did not have the same temperament as Zhou Jingxuan, they were just more gorgeously dressed.
He is none other than Zhou Xingyun, the son of the Zhou family and Zhou Jingxuan's half-brother.
As for the other one, he was a young man under twenty years old and a friend of Zhou Xingyun.
He talked and laughed freely with Zhou Bingkun, not at all restrained by Zhou Bingkun's high status.
"As expected of the son of the cancerous commander, he is calm and calm, not bad!" Zhou Bingkun smiled kindly and was full of praise.
It turned out that Zhou Xingyun's friend was the son of the famous Southern Army Commander, Qiu Zifan.
Qiu Zifan smiled slightly and said humbly: "Uncle, thank you."
Zhou Bingkun was very interested in it and said: "I heard from Xingyun that you are familiar with military books and have a very high understanding of soldiers. You are already able to conduct sand table exercises with your father, the cancerous commander?"
The so-called sand table drill refers to the two sides simulating offensive and defensive battles on the map.
Qiu Zifan felt ashamed and said: "My father has been fighting all his life and is experienced. Most of the time I lose in drills with him."
Hearing this, Zhou Bingkun said in surprise: "Can you still beat your father?"
The sand table drill is very theoretical. It is incredible that Qiu Zifan can defeat the cancerous commander at such a young age!
Qiu Zifan's expression showed a trace of complacency that was hard to hide, but on the surface he pretended to be humble: "It's only one or two games, it's nothing."
Zhou Bingkun was full of praise: "One or two games are already a big deal! Your father is the commander-in-chief of one side, and he is so good at using soldiers that it would be difficult for ordinary people to draw a draw with him."
Zhou Xingyun said with a smile: "Dad, you don't know, the outside world calls Qiu Zifan the little military advisor!"
"Heroes are born at a young age! One day, when the sun sets, he will become a great person. His achievements will be equal to those of his father!" Zhou Bingkun admired him very much.
The Zhou father and son had a tacit understanding and did not mention the recent fiasco of the Cancerous Commander to avoid embarrassment to Qiu Zifan.
"No matter what, my goal is to become a commander like my father and I will be very satisfied." Qiu Zifan said modestly.
The group was talking and laughing when suddenly Zhou Jingxuan came in with Xia Qingchen.
"Xuan'er is back too?" Zhou Bingkun's smile became even brighter: "I heard from your elder brother that you defeated Li Henshui, the fourth-ranked prodigy in Liangjing, during a military engagement at the border?"
Compared with when Zhou Xingyun came back, he personally came out of the room to greet her, when Zhou Jingxuan came back, he didn't even get up, which made him look a little cold in comparison.
"A narrow victory, disappointing my father." Zhou Jingxuan glanced at her brother Zhou Xingyun, who looked at her indifferently and looked away expressionlessly.
The relationship between the two is not harmonious.
After all, if they were not born from the same mother, it is difficult for them to have the feelings of biological brothers and sisters.
"That's right, then Li Henshui's strength is not bad." Zhou Bingkun nodded and said: "Xingyun and you are both my pride, I am proud of you."
Among the five geniuses of the Zhongyun Realm, the Zhou family only has two of them. Such a scene is unique.
However, his praise for Zhou Jingxuan was obviously much paler.
Zhou Jingxuan's calm face showed a trace of unnoticeable loneliness.
In my father's eyes, I only have my brother!
Her brother is a man, but he is also more talented than her. He is the third most talented person in the Zhongyun Realm. He is also good at running camps and has better connections than her.
Therefore, his father always favored him. In comparison, Zhou Jingxuan was not taken seriously.
"Who is this?" Zhou Bingkun looked at the unfamiliar Xia Qingchen with a smile.
Zhou Jingxuan just raised a smile and introduced: "Wang Kai, a promising person I met on the road."
Wang Kai?
Zhou Bingkun cast a questioning look at his son Zhou Xingyun.
He doesn't know as much as his son about the circle of young people.
Zhou Xingyun shook his head slightly, saying that he had never heard of Wang Kai's name.
In the capital, he knew all the slightly famous people of his age. Even if he didn't know them, he should have heard their names.
But I have never heard of Wang Kai’s name.
"Young Master Wang, you are so talented?" Zhou Bingkun wondered in his mind who Wang Kai was.
This is the first time that my daughter has brought a man into the house.
Xia Qingchen said: "Second-level secret agent."
spy?
Isn't that the special army under Dusk?
Moreover, the level 2 secret agent is not low, but if it is high, it is not high either. It is only equivalent to Qian Xiaoqi in Liangjing.
There was a trace of surprise in Zhou Bingkun's eyes, but he restrained himself well and said: "The secret agent is good, the secret agent has a future."
After saying that, he looked at his daughter, hoping she would explain.
Why are you bringing a little person back?
In the Zhou Mansion's compound, all the powerful people come and go. Wouldn't bringing a small person like Wang Kai lower the threshold of the Zhou Mansion?
Zhou Jingxuan said: "Young Master Wang has superb skills and great potential in martial arts. The most important thing is that he saved my life, so I would like to recommend him to my father."
She brought Xia Qingchen back because she hoped her father would give her some help in terms of connections.
As long as his father sincerely helps, Xia Qingchen can definitely make further progress in the dusk.
oh?
Zhou Bingkun, Zhou Xingyun and even Qiu Zifan couldn't help but be surprised.
Zhou Jingxuan is a powerful person with the four awakenings of the great star position, and she needs Wang Kai to save her.
"It turns out that I saved my little girl's life!" Zhou Bingkun immediately stood up, cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry!"
Xia Qingchen said: "You're welcome, it only takes a little effort."
Zhou Bingkun looked at Xia Qingchen curiously and said, "If you can save my little girl, you must be very advanced, right?"
If this is really the case, with such a talented person, why should we win over him well?
