These heirs of the Marquis fled from here in a panic, as if they were on the run, and they were in a state of embarrassment.

Seeing that the matter was over, Zhu Xiuyuan hurriedly greeted him with a smile, saying "Pengpi is shining" and other words.

The two princes were politely invited in. After Zhu Xiuyuan sent them in, they chatted for a few words. Dong Cheng and Li Jiye happened to come over together, so Zhu Xiuyuan helped them chat together.

He left here and prepared to take a look at Lin Bochang just now.

Through the words of the heirs of the marquis just now, in addition to knowing that his name was Lin Bochang, Zhu Xiuyuan also obtained a lot of information.

For example, this Lin Bochang is a hereditary military general, but it seems that his father committed a crime and lost his hereditary job.

This kind of talent is exactly what Zhu Xiuyuan needs.

Moreover, Zhu Xiuyuan also learned from their words that Lin Bochang was just here to participate in the martial arts competition...

Then this is even better!

Zhu Xiuyuan wanted to test it out and see what Lin Bochang was like.

But before leaving the courtyard, Zhu Xiuyuan suddenly remembered the three women behind the temporary stage.

When he went out just now, they should have been getting along harmoniously, right?

Zhu Xiuyuan stopped for a moment and looked behind the temporary stage.

At the first sight, Zhu Xiuyuan almost fell over.

What did he see?

Weird...

I saw Dong Shuzhen holding Kou Wanwan's mother-of-pearl pipa, playing with it here and there, with a curious face on her face, and making movements like plucking the strings.

Kou Wanwan and Li Qingnu, on the other hand, were pointing from the side and seemed to be discussing something...

In Zhu Xiuyuan's impression, Dong Shuzhen's names for Kou Wanwan were both a pipa spirit on the one hand and a vixen on the other, which was very rude.

Then...why is she holding Kou Wanwan's pipa there and playing with it?

Isn't there a fierce rivalry between them?

But how to explain this scene now?

Out of curiosity, Zhu Xiuyuan couldn't help but glance at Princess Anle Li Qingnu.

All of this should be attributed to Li Qingnu!

Li Qingnu... Zhu Xiuyuan's brows suddenly jumped, and he couldn't help but think of the time when they were still in Jiangzhou, when Li Qingnu followed Li Jiye, who was the envoy of the Liang Kingdom, to Jiangzhou.

When Li Qingnu and Dong Shuzhen met for the first time, she was very excited and had some opinions about Li Qingnu. Maybe... she was afraid that Li Qingnu would seduce her husband.

But later, in what seemed like only half a day, Dong Shuzhen called Li Qingnu "senior sister", which was a very close relationship.

Later, Li Jiye and Li Qingnu left Jiangzhou and returned to Liang State. When they said goodbye at the dock, Dong Shuzhen cried loudly...

"This Princess Anle seems to have a kind of magical power. She is good at dancing. She is really a 'magic princess'!"

Zhu Xiuyuan grinned, turned around and left, coming to the street outside the restaurant.

Lin Bochang has not left yet, still standing in his original position.

He lowered his head slightly, but kept his body straight.

Zhu Xiuyuan walked over and couldn't see his face or expression clearly. All he could see was the strands of hair hanging down from his temples, giving him the feeling of a handsome man who was not mainstream.

Liu Wencai and Liu Xun, the two princes, are still here.

One on the left and one on the right, they surrounded Lin Bochang.

Liu Xunwu folded his arms over his chest and held a big knife in the crook of his arm.

Liu Wencai looked at Lin Bochang and seemed to be talking to him.

"Brother Liu, do you know this Brother Lin?" Zhu Xiuyuan stepped forward in surprise.

"Uncle Jiang Cheng, Lin Bochang, a common man, nice to meet you!" Lin Bochang raised his head, stared at Zhu Xiuyuan, and bowed his hands.

Zhu Xiuyuan nodded, and before he spoke, Liu Wencai on the side smiled and said: "We know each other a long time ago, but we are not very familiar with each other. Since he left the capital with his father, we have never contacted him again, but

I don’t want to see my old friends again here today, it’s really a fate...”

On a very cold day, Li Wencai was still holding a folding fan, patting it here and there very coquettishly, and kept talking.

"oh?"

Zhu Xiuyuan was surprised for a moment and then understood.

This Lin Bochang is the son of a hereditary military general. In this capital, he can actually get to know Liu Wencai, the crown prince of Zhenze. It seems that Lin Bochang's father's military position is not small.

"Brother Lin came to Beijing this time to participate in the martial arts competition?" Zhu Xiuyuan asked.

"To be honest, Uncle Jiang Cheng, Cao Min has been in Beijing for several months. He originally wanted to get a job in the Ministry of War based on the martial arts taught by his father since he was a child... But things didn't work out. Because of Cao Min's father, the Ministry of War was actually a

Refusal... More than half a month ago, the grassroots were about to return to the village. They happened to see the martial arts notice posted at the gate of the city, so they stayed."

When Lin Bochang was talking, Zhu Xiuyuan had been observing him.

Seeing that his conversation was calm and his face was as usual, and seeing that he was the organizer of the martial arts competition, and even a "big shot" who could influence the selection and ranking of the martial arts competition, Lin Bochang didn't have any strange expression at all. He had obviously seen the world.

Zhu Xiuyuan couldn't help but nodded repeatedly. Yes, looking at it now, Lin Bochang is indeed a talent...

"Brother Lin, you have been staying in Beijing for several months? Then why don't you come to me? You are the son of a general and you are very capable. I, Zhenze Army, need talents like you!" Liu Wencai interjected.

"Brother Liu!" Zhu Xiuyuan raised his eyebrows and pulled away from Liu Wencai. Liu Wencai was trying to compete with him. This is not okay.

Moreover, Zhu Xiuyuan firmly remembered Liu Wencai's words: "Another skill".

Although Liu Wencai sometimes talks nonsense, he rarely lies. So what he said: "Another skill", with a high probability, is true!

This kind of talent comes from a family of military generals. How could Zhu Xiuyuan allow Liu Wencai to poach him?

"Brother Zhu, why are you pulling me?"

As Liu Wencai shouted, he was pulled behind by Zhu Xiuyuan. He took Liu Wencai's place and stood beside Lin Bochang.

"Haha, Brother Lin, what a coincidence. I asked Your Majesty to hold the martial arts competition in order to discover useful talents among the people. Talents like Lin Zhong. It would be a pity to miss this martial arts competition!"

Zhu Xiuyuan smiled.

"Uncle Jiang Cheng, you are so polite. The poor and careless people cannot afford to be called 'talented'!" Lin Bochang bowed down and handed over his hands, "Uncle Jiang Cheng is the real talent. He has come up with such wonderful methods as martial arts and has brought great benefits to the common people.

Thousands of people who have no ambitions have built a bright road...Although ordinary people are brave enough, what do they mean?"

"Brother Lin, have you registered? The registration deadline is tomorrow. If Brother Lin needs anything, please feel free to ask. It would be a waste for a talent like Brother Lin not to participate in martial arts!" Zhu Xiuyuan said with a smile.

"Uncle Robert is concerned, the common people have already signed up!"

"Very good, I hope I can always see your shadow on the martial arts field!" Zhu Xiuyuan encouraged him, looked around, pointed at Dong Yulou, and said with a smile: "Brother Lin, we might as well go in and talk.

I’m very curious about Brother Lin’s experience over the years.”

"Uncle, please forgive me, but ordinary people will not enter Dong Yulou. The martial arts exam is approaching, and ordinary people would like to do more practice, so as not to waste my uncle's expectations." Lin Bochang cupped his hands and said.

"Well, that's good!" Zhu Xiuyuan nodded.

Lin Bochang handed over his hand again, said goodbye, and quickly disappeared into the crowd of people on the street.

After the matter was settled, Zhu Xiuyuan invited Liu Wencai and Liu Xun into the store.

During this period, Zhu Xiuyuan asked Liu Wencai: "Brother Liu, what is this Lin Bochang... about?"

"Brother Zhu, this Lin family is a family of military generals. His father has achieved the position of General of the Royal Guards. Although he is not a decorated officer, the position of General of the Royal Guards is equivalent to the prince in terms of rank. It is not easy.

." Liu Wencai flapped his folding fan and talked eloquently.

"Oh? General Yulinwei?" Zhu Xiuyuan was surprised. This Lin Bochang's family affairs are indeed not simple.

"As for Lin Bochang, he was born in a family of military generals. He has been influenced by his ears and eyes since he was a child, and he was carefully cultivated by Father Lin... So I remember that when we were still very young, Lin Bochang had already made a name for himself... Haha..."

When Liu Wencai said this, he felt a little embarrassed, because he was also a child of a family of military generals, but he did not do his job properly and regarded himself as a scholar all day long.

Although he didn't care about other people's opinions, when it came to Lin Bochang, he himself felt that it was a bit embarrassing to be born in a family of military generals but write and write all day long...

Zhu Xiuyuan nodded, thinking to himself, this Lin Bochang should be one of those "other people's children", with a very deep artistic background!

"However, something happened later. Lin's father was demoted and his hereditary power was deprived of his power. Since then, Lin Bochang followed his father to leave the capital and go far away... Oh, I didn't expect that after so many years, I

When I had almost forgotten that Lin Bochang was such a number one figure, he appeared again. It was fate, it was really fate..."

"Eh!"

Zhu Xiuyuan sighed and lamented that fate plays tricks on people.

Lin Bochang, if his father had not been demoted, would have become a famous general long ago, but...

Fortunately, these buried talents are about to be discovered by his martial arts competitions. This is one of the reasons why he holds martial arts competitions!

Talent is always the most important.

As they talked, they came to the first courtyard of the restaurant and merged into the circle of King Poyang, King Zhenze, Li Jiye, Dong Cheng and others.

However, this circle is not very harmonious, because Li Jiye is really too "cold". He rarely speaks, and when he does speak, he only chats with Dong Cheng...

It wasn't until Zhu Xiuyuan joined in that the overall atmosphere became lively.

While chatting, Zhu Xiuyuan also took time to look behind the temporary stage.

However, this time, he looked empty. There was no one behind the temporary stage!

Dong Shuzhen, Li Qingnu, and Kou Wanwan, as well as a group of singing and dancing girls who filled the house with flowers, were all missing, and they didn't know where they went.

Zhu Xiuyuan was secretly worried, but he had no choice but to ask everyone about their whereabouts.

He could only chat and worry at the same time.

He secretly prayed in his heart that they would not have any conflicts.

Although Li Qingnu, the "Magic Princess", was mediating, Zhu Xiuyuan was still a little worried...

As time passes by, noon is approaching.
Chapter completed!
