Starting with Fleeing, Watch Me Soar to Great Heights

Lu Feng, who struggled for five years in the apocalypse, was framed and had no choice but to self-detonate, dying with the Zombie King. However, fate had other plans. He was reborn into the body of...

Chapter 49 Nan Shaoqing

After returning to the main hall in the inner courtyard, Lu Zifeng recounted the story of Guo Ya Ren's visit and the backgrounds of several maids.

Lu Mingyuan asked with some confusion after hearing this.

"Brother Feng, this isn't right! Think about it, they used to be in the palace, and they were ordered by the Empress to live in the Xichang Marquis' Mansion. No matter how you look at it, this doesn't sound good!"

Lu Zifeng laughed and said, "Dad, it's okay. It's because they once obeyed the Queen Mother's orders. No one in the capital dared to use them. That's why they came here."

"When they came here, they knew a lot. Dad knew that our family would be different from the others and would follow the same path as the families in the capital. So, Mom, Grandmother, and my sister needed someone like them to assist them."

"Father, you should know that there are too many intrigues in the inner house. After all, our family has a weak foundation, so we must have these people."

Lu Mingyuan actually understood what Lu Zifeng meant at this time. He knew that although his son said some unmotivated words from time to time, he was working hard in this direction. Now it seemed that his son had made up his mind, so he couldn't hold him back. He should read more books in the future.

"Well, Dad understands. I think after these maids arrive, our family will still be able to control them."

Seeing that his father had come to terms with it, Lu Zifeng spoke to his mother, Tan Yunniang, who was standing beside him.

"Mother, I heard from that Guoya that he will bring six maids with him tomorrow. He will leave two with Grandma, two with you, and two with my sister."

"Oh, by the way, Dad, Mom, I'm thinking of hiring a teacher for my little sister, a female tutor, to teach her music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and needlework."

As soon as Lu Zifeng finished speaking, Lu Zixuan, who was standing beside him, looked at Lu Zifeng with shining eyes.

“Brother, what you said is true. Do you really want to invite a gentleman for me?”

Lu Zifeng looked at the little girl's expression and smiled.

"Well, little sister, are you willing?"

Lu Zixuan nodded her little head.

"Hehe, that's great. I used to learn a few words from my father and mother, but then my mother and father were busy, so I stopped learning."

After the matter was settled, Lu Zifeng prepared to go to the prefect's house. Two days ago, Situ Hao had sent someone to tell him to go over there in the next two days.

He rode a horse to the side door of the prefect's house. The gatekeeper already knew Lu Zifeng. When he saw Lu Zifeng coming, he hurried forward and took the reins.

"Mr. Lu is here. The prince has already told you the day before yesterday that if you come, you can go directly to him."

"Well, I'll go and take care of the horse."

"Okay, Mr. Lu, don't worry, I will take good care of your horse."

Lu Zifeng followed another servant into the front yard, where Situ Hao lived.

Situ Hao was practicing sword in the yard. When he saw Lu Zifeng come in, he stopped, handed the sword in his hand to the servant, and took a towel to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"If I don't send someone to deliver the message, you won't come, right?"

Lu Zifeng smiled when he heard that. He knew that after sending Situ Hao to the Luzhou government office, he would no longer be so disrespectful to Situ Hao. Now you can see that the most obvious thing is that the tone of Situ Hao's speech has changed. It was also a deal. He sent him here safely, and he helped his family settle down here.

"Haha, look at what the prince said. I'm busy settling my family. I've been cleaning up the house these past two days and even bought a farm."

Situ Hao also knew that Lu Zifeng had been busy these two days, so he didn't care anymore.

"I will be here for another half a month. By then, my father and mother will come here and return to the capital with me."

"Do you have any thoughts about coming to the capital with me? You should know that once we get there, I can arrange a position for you. Based on your martial arts skills, I can arrange a sixth-rank official position at the very least."

Lu Zifeng had some thoughts after hearing this, but he still declined politely.

"Sir, I'm afraid it won't work this time. The family has just settled here and there are still many things to do. I want to go in two years."

Situ Hao looked at Lu Zifeng deeply, and nodded without saying anything else.

"Okay, then I'll wait for you in the capital."

Then the two of them sat in the yard and chatted, and soon they heard footsteps.

Lu Zifeng turned his head and saw a young man of about thirteen or fourteen walking in. Wasn't this the prefect's eldest son, Nan Shaoqing?

"Cousin, aren't you bored staying at home every day? Why don't we go out for a walk?"

As soon as Nan Shaoqing finished speaking, he saw Lu Zifeng sitting there, and immediately came up to Lu Zifeng with a smile on his face.

"Hey, Brother Lu is here too! What do you think about what I said last time? I'm really sincere."

Lu Zifeng was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when he heard this. Damn, he still remembers it?

It turned out that some time ago, Lu Zifeng and Situ Hao encountered Nan Shaoqing fighting with someone in a teahouse. Later, Nan Shaoqing found out that it was Lu Zifeng who came to Luzhou Prefecture to protect his cousin. He also heard his cousin say that Lu Zifeng's martial arts were rarely rivaled in the world, so he wanted to ask Lu Zifeng to be his master.

How could Lu Zifeng accept him as his disciple? All he had were supernatural powers, not internal skills. During this period of time, Lu Zifeng also got to know this world. This world did not have the internal skills he had heard of in his previous life. Most of them were body-nourishing methods, which were only for strengthening the body and regulating the mind and body. They were not as exaggerated as in the martial arts novels of his previous life.

Therefore, Lu Zifeng's current martial arts skills are relatively top-notch in this world.

Situ Hao had some guesses, but when he heard Nan Shaoqing say this, he immediately said with a cold face.

"Shaoqing, don't talk nonsense. Brother Feng'er's martial arts are a secret that cannot be passed on. His master also forbids him from accepting disciples or teaching it to outsiders."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zifeng glanced at Situ Hao. He didn't expect Situ Hao to help him, but he didn't say anything.

"Mr. Nan, I'm really sorry. My master said that the legendary Kung Fu cannot be passed on to outsiders. Now even my younger brothers haven't learned it. I only taught them some basic boxing, kicking and sword techniques."

When Nan Shaoqing heard Lu Zifeng and his cousin say this, he sat down dejectedly.

Lu Zifeng smiled and said.

"If Young Master Nan wants to learn martial arts, I can teach him a set of sword and spear techniques."

Nan Shaoqing immediately perked up upon hearing this, "Brother Lu, you really mean what you said."

Seeing that he still had the heart of a young man, Lu Zifeng smiled.

"You have a gun and a knife here, I'm going to show you how to use them."

In his previous life, Lu Zifeng learned five sets of spear techniques, one of which was the Xiang family spear technique. As the name suggests, this was the spear technique used by Xiang Yu, the King of Chu during the Qin and Han dynasties.
