General Xu sent someone to inquire about it. Xiao Yuanchen had always kept this matter in mind and went to the Imperial Observatory in person. However, he didn't know whether it was intentional. Song Lian was not there, and the other disciples were not able to dispel such a strong yin energy. Xiao Yuanchen was helpless.
Qiao Yujiao, however, knew that he was looking for a Taoist master, and thinking of Zhao Letong, she took the initiative to give Xiao Yuanchen some advice, "The young lady of the Zhao family knows some, and I heard she's quite powerful."
"Miss Zhao? Isn't she a child?"
"She's not an ordinary child. She's very strange. There must be a reason why the eldest princess and the Ye family suddenly became friends with the Zhao family.
And recently, people in the academy have been saying that Aunt Zhao is very effective, and they are talking about her."
Xiao Yuanchen was a little confused: "The Zhao family and the Xu family are not on good terms. Will she be willing to help?"
Qiao Yujiao smiled confidently: "You have to listen to my arrangements. She has no choice but to go."
"Oh, Miss Qiao, do you have such wisdom? If you can help me, you will be my think tank, my good wife, and my female Zhuge Liang."
Qiao Yujiao said shyly, "I am satisfied to be able to share His Highness's worries. I don't deserve such praise from His Highness."
It seemed that overnight, Zhao Letong became proficient in Taoist magic, and it was very effective. The news spread among the people. Coupled with the selection of children from Zou Qingyu's family, Zhao Letong almost became the number one person in the Taoist sect, and his fame was extremely high.
Even ordinary people heard about it, and a few people came out to add fuel to the fire, saying that they had their faces read by Miss Zhao, and her reading was very accurate.
In addition, Zhao Letong suddenly became enlightened before, and there were rumors outside that she was abnormal and was possessed by something. Now people understand that she suddenly became enlightened and her Taoist magic was awakened. Isn't it a good thing?
What Zhao Biao heard had spread throughout the city and was out of control.
Emperor Xuande knew about it, and the eldest princess personally witnessed her prowess, but it was not normal for her fame to spread so quickly.
Zhao Biao was worried and had not yet figured out a solution when General Xu came to him.
"General Xu, you're quite clever. I've never had anything to do with you, but you're not a gentleman to try to trick me like this."
General Xu played dumb: "Old Zhao, what are you talking about? Although you and I have never fought side by side, we served in the same dynasty. When did I ever betray you?"
Zhao Biao sneered: "Did you spread my daughter's reputation? Don't treat me like a fool. Are you trying to get your youngest son off the hook?"
I also told you that my daughter is just a child and doesn't have that kind of ability. You should look for someone else."
General Xu's expression changed. "Old Zhao, I really don't know what you're talking about. I just heard about it. I'm here for the child, but I've never done anything you mentioned."
Zhao Biao didn't believe it. "Do you believe there are so many coincidences in the world? My eldest grandson wants to arrest your youngest son, and your old mother even kicked my eldest grandson out of the house. Your Xu family is so powerful, but my Zhao family can't afford to offend you.
Come, show them away. We dare not delay you, General Xu, from rescuing the child."
"You, Zhao Biao, are you so heartless? Put yourself in their shoes. Would you be anxious if your child encountered something like this?"
Zhao Biao said with a cold face: "If my child dares to do those bastard things, I will break his dog legs first.
My own child is a child, how can it be easy to pamper someone else's daughter and raise her to such a big age? Why don't you put yourself in their shoes?"
General Xu was so choked that he was speechless. Zhao Biao was right, his son really deserved to die.
"Brother Zhao, I failed to educate my son well. I will compensate the families of the victims and make that rebellious son apologize personally. But he is my own child after all, I can't just watch him die, right?
We admit our mistakes and will correct them. Please, Brother Zhao, please forgive us. My Xu family owes you a favor."
General Xu bowed and lowered his head. Zhao Biao held the armrest tightly, trying not to be too aggressive.
It's impossible to let my daughter go to his house no matter what.
Zhao Letong came in and said, "I'm willing to go."
"Tongtong."
"Dad, don't worry. I can handle it. Didn't the Xu family want me to go? If I don't go, I'll feel guilty."
[The Xu family has put so much effort into forcing me, why shouldn't I let them get what they want?]
[Dad, you are like this...]
When Zhao Biao heard his daughter's thoughts, he slowly relaxed. The Xu family didn't know enough about her daughter's methods, otherwise they wouldn't have forced her to save people.
General Xu stared at Zhao Letong. It was the first time he saw such a lovely little girl. She had a pair of big, bright and clear eyes, and fair skin so tender that you could pinch water out of it. She was not that fat. The three-and-a-half-year-old child was naughty, lively, and a little mysterious. She was quite likable.
If someone had said in the past that a child could possess profound occult skills, General Xu would not have believed it. However, the child was in such danger that he had no choice but to try any possible means.
"Miss Zhao, thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard, but General Xu should know that I'm not helping you for free. Your son has committed many evil deeds, and anyone who helps him will lose merit. You have to pay more."
General Xu breathed a sigh of relief. "It's only natural. My Xu family will pay for it, no matter how much it costs."
Zhao Letong smiled and said, "That's straightforward. I don't want any money. I heard that the Xu family has a golden bow. I want it as a gift for my second nephew."
General Xu, like Zhao Biao, likes to collect rare weapons. They are all treasures in his heart. Now, for the sake of his son, he can only give them up. "Okay."
Zhao Biao was unhappy: "There are no good bows and arrows in Dad's warehouse. You give them to your nephew. Aren't you being filial to Dad?"
This was jealousy of his own grandson. The resentful look in his eyes left Zhao Letong speechless. "Dad, are you short of longbows in your warehouse? How about you trade with your nephew? He doesn't have a bow and arrow suitable for his archery class, and as a grandfather, you won't even offer to help him with one?"
