"good!"
Yue Buqun was very satisfied. This son-in-law was not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also very good at handling things, far better than many of his disciples!
After a moment, Yue Buqun pondered again and said, "My dear son-in-law, I have heard that there is a person in Songzhou with the same name as you..."
Murong Fu admitted, "Father-in-law, you guessed correctly. I am indeed from Songzhou and have made a name for myself in the Jianghu there. I have no intention of hiding anything. Moreover, I am indeed a scholar in Mingzhou and have achieved some official rank."
Yue Buqun asked, "Did your son-in-law pass the imperial examination when he went to the capital?"
Murong Fu shook his head and said regretfully, "My trip to the capital was full of unexpected events. Not only did I fail the imperial examination, but I was also wanted by the court. I had no choice but to return to Songzhou to inherit the family business."
Yue Buqun thought of the rumors circulating recently: someone was plotting a rebellion, and many others were implicated.
"Could it be... that my dear son-in-law is..."
“Father-in-law, there is no need to worry. The matter of rebellion has nothing to do with me. I was wanted by the court only because of a series of coincidences. The matter has been resolved. As long as I do not show off in front of the young emperor, he will not pay any attention to me.”
Murong Fu explained before he could finish speaking.
That's good.
Yue Buqun breathed a sigh of relief.
Even if he revitalizes the Huashan Sect, he cannot withstand the imperial court's encirclement and suppression!
If Murong Fu is truly involved in the rebellion, Yue Buqun will probably have to flee as well.
Ning Zhongze listened to them for a long time before she realized what they were talking about and hurriedly asked, "Could you be the Southern Murong of the Northern Song martial arts world?"
Murong Fu cupped his hands in greeting to Ning Zhongze: "It is truly an honor that my mother-in-law knows of my reputation in the martial arts world."
Linghu Chong said sarcastically, "What Nan Murong? Is he that famous? I've never heard of him."
Yue Buqun immediately put on a stern face, patted Linghu Chong on the back of the head, and scolded him:
"Chong'er! Don't be rude!"
"Murong in the South and Qiao Feng in the North are the two most famous young figures in the martial arts world of the Northern Song Dynasty, and your brother-in-law is one of them!"
Yue Buqun's words astonished his disciples.
Don't be fooled by the fact that the Huashan Sect is famous in the martial arts world of Mingzhou. They're really just so-so. The so-called "Gentleman's Sword" is just something others give them face.
There is only one person whom the martial arts world truly fears: Feng Qingyang.
