"I'm not afraid of hardship!"
Xiao Bao spoke resolutely, saying that he had suffered a lot since he was kidnapped by the robbers.
He went from being a pampered child who had always lived a life of luxury to someone who could only afford to eat a blackened, smelly cornbread every day.
No one would comfort or protect him. If he disobeyed and dared to cry and make a fuss, he would be beaten up by the robbers. That period could be said to be the darkest time of his life!
If he hadn't been a little clever and knew that he had to be obedient to make those people trust him and find a suitable opportunity to run away, he wouldn't have been so lucky to meet Lin Zao.
This experience changed Xiaobao a lot. He was no longer as arrogant and complacent as before, and he no longer relied on his family's power to be carefree.
On the way back to Ganzhou with Lin Zao and the others, he also witnessed a lot of human suffering and experienced the coldness and warmth of human relationships.
The reason he liked and trusted his aunt so much was not only because she saved him, but also because even when facing a large number of robbers, she could calmly kill them and scare them to death.
That calm and composed demeanor made him appear so powerful and so safe!
Until now, when he saw Tang Jian, he saw a different kind of attitude in him that he wanted more.
It's a powerful confidence, the kind of self-assurance you have when shooting an arrow!
The leisurely and carefree feeling while throwing stones!
Although he didn't know what Uncle Tang looked like on the battlefield.
But all he needs to know is that he is the one who saved his father's life, the one who protected the entire Ganzhou, the one who seriously injured the enemy general, and the great hero in the hearts of the people!
Thinking about all this, Xiao Bao couldn't help but feel excited and became even more determined!
"Uncle Tang, please take me in! No matter how hard or tiring it is, I will definitely practice my skills diligently!"
Tang Jian kept looking into Xiao Bao's eyes, and seeing that he didn't look away, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.
Indeed, to remain so steadfast under his intense gaze is a rare sight even in the military.
"Very well! Since Your Highness has made up your mind, I will accept you as my student! I hope Your Highness will remain steadfast in your resolve and never forget your original intention!"
"Good! Well said! Yu'er, quickly pay your respects to your master! Remember what your master said!"
Prince Cheng and his wife have been here for quite some time.
Seeing that Tang Jian agreed to take Xiao Bao in, he finally spoke with relief. In fact, he was also quite surprised that Xiao Bao would make this decision.
You should know that he was extremely reluctant when he wanted Xiaobao to learn kung fu before.
Seeing that his father also supported him, Xiao Bao immediately knelt before Tang Jian and bowed.
"Wei Yu greets Master! I will remember your words! Thank you, Master, for accepting me as your disciple!"
Tang Jian put down Ya Ya, whom he had been holding, and then helped Xiao Bao up with both hands.
"Your Highness, please rise! I accept this courtesy now, and you are now my disciple! However, you are the ruler, and I am the subject, so you must never perform such a grand ceremony again!"
Xiao Bao glanced at his father, and seeing him nod, he stood up with Tang Jian's help.
"Father, I want to learn martial arts with you too!"
When Tiger Head saw that his brother Xiao Bao wanted to learn kung fu from his father, he quickly rushed over and hugged Tang Jian's leg.
"You promised to teach me! You can't go back on your word!"
Tang Jian tapped Tiger Head's little head:
"Don't worry! You'll be all set for yourself. You won't be able to run away then!"
He originally planned to teach Tiger Head when he was a little older, since his physical condition was still too poor!
Since he's so eager, we can start by learning some basics.
"Now that we've accepted you as our disciple, our teaching time will be set for 5:00 AM (卯时), and the location will be the martial arts training ground in the Prince's Mansion. The early bird catches the worm, so I hope you'll arrive on time!"
As for why he chose to go to the Prince's Mansion, it was for the convenience of his two children going to school, and he could go to the Prince's Mansion with them.
Xiao Bao and Hu Tou exchanged a glance and responded simultaneously:
"yes!"
Watching the two children stand tall and answer loudly, Tang Jian seemed to see two spirited young men in the future, full of ambition and high aspirations.
At this moment, Tang Jian had no idea that he was creating a very troublesome enemy for himself!
As cunning as a wolf, and as fierce as a tiger!
