Chapter 687 Strength is everything!

Zhan Wangdao said, "That's exactly what I thought."

He couldn't tell others his whereabouts clearly, as he had originally planned to go there secretly and return secretly.

If the enemy knew about it and was prepared, wouldn't all his roundabout plans be in vain?

After the three of them had discussed it, they went to the imperial study together to ask Dabao for instructions.

Dabao pondered, "Grandpa, be careful on this trip. Although you have advanced to the ninth level of martial arts, you are going to a place where powerful people gather. You are not bringing your soldiers with you, so you must be careful. If you need anything, please send a message back. We in Da'an will fully support you."

All right!

The King of War is heartwarming.

Such a young child can imagine almost everything.

The new emperor's intricate and complex mind should not be underestimated.

"Your Majesty, rest assured. I won't act rashly unless I'm confident. My main focus is to forge a dragon whip that suits me... If nothing unexpected happens, I'll be back in less than six months."

Dabao said solemnly, "Yes, I agree."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

In the imperial study, here, we are the emperor and his subjects, and we act as the emperor and his subjects and follow the way of the emperor and his subjects.

This is how the matter is settled.

Apart from Liao Jiu and his wife, and Dabao, the three people who knew the truth, everything else was kept secret.

Even Erbao and Nianbao thought that the War King was going back to his fiefdom to go into seclusion.

Nanbao was very reluctant to leave, "Grandpa, how long will you stay in seclusion? Nanbao will miss you!"

Erbao also said, "Grandpa, I want to move back to Prince Xiang's Mansion and learn Kung Fu from you. I also want to be a great master like you! Please come out of seclusion soon!"

He had obtained Dabao's approval years ago to move back to Prince Xiang's Mansion, but he hasn't moved yet.

I plan to move after the Chinese New Year and the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

His good neighbor, King Zhan, was leaving Beijing again, and he was reluctant to let him go.

The War King agreed with a smile.

"Okay, Grandpa will be out of the house as soon as possible."

As soon as the job is done, I will return home immediately.

After the King of War was informed of this matter, Liao Jiu and his wife went to Tianya Academy again to pay their respects to the old dean.

Tan Tao drove them both out, "Go, go, go back to where you came from. I can't bear the thought of you coming to me and paying me your sincere greetings..."

Liao Jiu blocked all of Tan Tao's firepower, no, even his spit, in front of him.

"teacher!"

Tan Tao said to him, "Who dares to act as the regent's teacher? I don't have the nerve to do that. You come to wish me a happy new year after the new year has passed. If it weren't for old Xuan Zhan mentioning me to you, I'm afraid you wouldn't even remember me next year. You still want to wish me a happy new year? Don't you have the nerve to do that?"

Liao Jiu coughed, "Teacher, we are really busy and are late. Please forgive us for being late. Of course, we really came to pay our respects to you in your old age and to send our child to the academy. We also wanted to know about your study abroad. Didn't you go to Darong Country for study abroad before? Why are you going again now?"

Tan Tao sneered, "You ate yesterday, why do you want to eat again today?"

Liao Jiu...

Jiang Lianzhu...

This is not communicated.

have no choice.

Now, in the entire capital, only Tan Tao dared to confront the couple whenever he wanted as he did before.

They can't afford to offend this teacher.

That's right, Tan Tao was even unwilling to accept the position of Taifu when the new emperor wanted to ask him to do so. For a scholar, such a great honor is hard to come by. How awesome would it be to be the emperor's teacher!

Tan Tao was not happy about this, as he wanted to travel far and wide and give lectures.

Unrestrained and free-loving.

He is a person with a very unique personality.

The secular world cannot restrain him.

He didn't even give the emperor face. In his eyes, the left and right regents were just fools.

Jiang Lianzhu could only put down the New Year gift and stand up to say goodbye.

"Teacher, I wish you a safe journey and a quick return."

Seeing that Jiang Lianzhu was so decisive and was about to leave, Tan Tao became unhappy again.

"What's the matter? Are you unhappy with my words? Are you acting like a regent? Are you busy with your daily affairs? Are you wasting your time just to talk to an old man like me?"

Liao Jiu stepped forward to offer comfort, "Of course not. We just took some time out today to come and talk to you, teacher. We left because you didn't like us. We're busy, not as busy as you. You have thousands of students to teach every day, and you also have to plan study tours. If we weren't stuck now, we would have loved to go on another study tour with you. We learned a lot of skills that will benefit us for the rest of our lives when we went on study tours with you before..."

After some flattery, Tan Tao was no longer so arrogant.

Tan Tao asked, "Why didn't you come to my place on the second day of the Lunar New Year to wish me a happy new year? Is it because the old lady's influence is too insignificant to warrant your regent coming to wish me a happy new year?"

Liao Jiu's forehead was covered with sweat!

"I was negligent. I thought that every year, so many students came to pay New Year's greetings to you, your place would be packed with people, and you wouldn't need a single student. Plus, I drank too much at my grandfather's house at noon and overslept in the afternoon. The academy is a bit far from the imperial city, so I didn't come... Teacher, I was wrong. I will be the first one to come and pay New Year's greetings to you next year. If you are willing, you can even have the New Year's dinner with us in the palace..."

Tan Tao devoted his life to studying and never married or had children.

I am a lonely man.

However, he is not alone. He has so many students that he can be found everywhere around the Spring Festival.

After hearing what Liao Jiu said, Tan Tao's expression finally looked better.

He is the type of person who wants to argue with people, and after that, he feels cheerful.

Not a petty person.

Lao Fu Zi is sometimes sour, very sour.

"Alright then. For next year's reunion dinner, let Xuan Zhan and I sit together. Ask the imperial kitchen to prepare some lighter food. As for me, I avoid spicy food..."

Jiang Lianzhu quickly agreed.

"Yes, teacher."

It's not just that he was unhappy that no one came to wish him a happy new year on the second day of the Lunar New Year, he was even jealous of the fact that King Zhan spent the New Year's reunion with them.

"I'm going to Darong Country to study and learn more about witchcraft. Last time you came to me to look up information, I thought about it and realized that I don't have much knowledge about witchcraft. I need to study it further. Plus, there's a chance that the black market on Zhongyuan Continent is opening in Darong Country, so I'm just going to check it out..." Tan Tao continued, "Whatever you want to say or ask, just ask..."

This shows that I am in a better mood and am willing to talk to them both.

What Jiang Lianzhu is interested in is the black market affairs of Zhongyuan Continent.

After asking a few questions, Tan Tao said, "The Zhongyuan Continent black market is held by random countries and lasts for about half a year. All kinds of goods are bought and sold. Ordinary people can't enter. You need an admission ticket. Your strength is your admission ticket. Your father, a martial artist of the ninth level, can enter. I, a pillar of the Confucian sect, can enter. You can't. Even if you go, you can't enter. There are barriers and enchantments, which is not right. You, the evil disciple Liao Jiu, definitely can't enter at your level. As for your wife, she has witchcraft power. Depending on the size of her witchcraft power, she might be able to enter. But I don't recommend you to enter, because after entering, you can kill people at will without breaking the law. It's a place where strength is truly respected! If I go there, whether I can come back alive depends on whether the ancestors bless me..."
