Luck in the heavens starts from the Red Mansion.

Chapter 325 Chance Encounter (please subscribe)

The martial arts of Feng Ziying and Wei Ruolan were the most powerful among the noble children of the same age that Jia Huan had ever seen, except for Liu Xianglian.

With their martial arts skills and their family background, it should not be difficult to become a martial arts scholar.

But now Feng Ziying has a dejected look on her face. She has a serious lack of confidence in the Wu Jinshi who has been admitted to this class. This makes Jia Huan feel very strange. Is there any secret that she doesn't know?
After repeated questioning by him, Feng Ziying finally explained the reason with a wry smile.

The thing is actually very simple. This year's martial arts competition is too stressful!

Anyone who is not blind can see that he now wants to achieve something in martial arts.

That was a great opportunity for civilians to get ahead through military merit, and with Jia Cong's stimulation, this martial arts competition naturally became popular.

According to Feng Ziying, the competition among martial arts candidates here in Zhili is not too fierce.

After all, there are many ways out for the noble children, and it does not necessarily have to be through martial arts.

So what, the statement that Wen Wu is the best and Wu Wu is second is not a joke.

Generally speaking, no matter how well-written an article is, some people will look down upon it, so it’s difficult to tell the difference.

But martial arts is different. Strength is whatever it is, and you can't deceive others.

Among the many noble disciples in the capital, there are not many who are willing to put in the effort to practice martial arts.

There may be noble disciples who want to practice martial arts, but do not have the opportunity or opportunity to practice.

For example, even if the concubines of major families want to work hard, some families are willing to provide resources to support them.

Like Jia Cong, how could he have the current strength without Jia Huan's full support?

The same is true. In the martial arts examinations here in Zhili, the competitive pressure is not too great.

But it is different in other places, especially in areas with powerful Jianghu sects, where many masters appear among the martial arts candidates.

For example, the martial arts candidates in the Central Plains region and the martial arts exam candidates in the Lianghu region seem to have received strong support from the local martial arts sects, and their martial arts skills are quite amazing.

Feng Ziying also got relatively accurate information, and then she lost confidence in being admitted to the Wu Jinshi exam.

Looking at Wei Ruolan's face, it's probably the same situation!

Jia Huan knew it well and never mentioned the martial arts competition again. Wasn't that just adding salt to the opponent's wounds? There was really no need to do it so badly.

After that, it was just about eating, drinking and talking about some light topics.

I don't know if it was the alcohol that stimulated her, or if she had other thoughts. In short, Feng Ziying and Wei Ruolan said a lot of things, which made Jia Huan gain a lot.

For example, Feng Ziying's future is that after the martial arts competition is over, he plans to find a way to join the Dragon Guards for a while, and then enter the Beijing camp through connections. This is a relatively normal way.

Others plan to enter the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division and the Patrol Battalion. They basically have connections there and can make proper arrangements.

If the war in southern Xinjiang lasts a little longer, they can also be mobilized through the Ministry of War.

What he said was very clear, Wei Ruolan would need help when the time came, and he could join the army to keep warm in the future.

Wei Ruolan didn't pat his chest and promise anything, he just said that if everything went well, he would definitely not disappoint his brothers. It was too early to say this now.

They asked Jia Huan what he thought again!

What can Jia Huan say?
It directly means that after passing the military examination, he will definitely become a royal guard first, and then be transferred out and follow the same path as Jia Cong, whether he enters the capital camp outside the city or Jia Cong's headquarters.

The banquet lasted from noon until the sun was about to set.

Jia Huan didn't drink much, and Feng Ziying and the others knew that he wasn't interested in drinking, so he didn't mean to force it. After all, it was just a gathering of friends.

When he left the restaurant, he happened to see a table of rich and wealthy customers on the first floor shouting loudly.

At first, he didn't care much, but he heard one of the drinkers calling the other "Shao Zu"!
Well, is it Sun Shaozu?

This was Jia Huan's first reaction, and he followed the sound and looked over.

Just in time, I saw a tall man with a beard and a sense of greed all over his body. His face was red and he was holding a wine bowl and raising his head to kill him.

Amid a burst of cheers from his tablemates, he put down the wine bowl and said in a rough voice: "Don't worry, everyone, Sun's ancestor has some relationship with the Rong Mansion. Waiting for someone's visit will definitely be successful!"

When Jia Huan heard this, how could he not know the identity of this man?

It is Sun Shaozu, the most annoying 'Zhongshan Wolf' in the story of Red Mansions!

A hint of cold murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but Jia Huan did not act rashly.

After all, in public, who knows if any master can see his hidden methods?
It's not worth putting yourself in danger for something like Sun Shaozu. If I remember correctly, Sun Shaozu's family had some power in Datong, and he was considered a member of the Datong frontier army. Because of his own mistakes, he had to leave his hometown and come to the capital to seek connections?

All kinds of thoughts flashed in his heart, and he didn't stop walking. He left the famous restaurant in a blink of an eye.

On the way back to the martial arts school, he thought about Yingchun, who had never heard of getting married.

All I can say is that the eldest man didn’t take his daughter seriously at all!
Yingchun is now nineteen years old, and in one year she will be twenty, a standard old girl.

I don’t know what the elder is thinking?

As far as Jia Huan knows, although there are not many people who have come to propose marriage in recent years, there are a few.

But they were all rejected by the big master, as if they were waiting for some opportunity!
But given the current climate, even if there is any chance, Yingchun is still too old to be opportunistic.

Besides, Yingchun’s personality is just like that, and she’s not suitable for an environment that’s too complicated!
To say that Jia Huan and Yingchun have any feelings is nonsense.

It had been so long since he had been reborn through time travel, but the opportunities to meet him were very few. He didn't know if he had met him a hundred times in total, and every time he met, Miharu was always together.

If he hadn't met Sun Shaozu by chance, Jia Huan would definitely not have remembered Yingchun.

But now that he remembered it, and felt very sorry for his final fate in the original novel Red Mansions, he naturally wanted to help him. At least he had such ability at this time.

The problem is that all the young men of the right age he knows are not very suitable.

Among his subordinates, there are some who have similar temperaments, but their birth status is too low. It is impossible for Master Pardon to agree to it, and it is impossible to give in because of the matter of face.

It would be nice if Yingchun was favored, but unfortunately she was not favored.

When it comes to Yingchun's marriage, the first thing that Mr. Pardon considers must be the real benefits and the issue of face. As for whether they are suitable or not, it doesn't matter at all!
This is also the difficulty for women in the feudal imperial power era!
Once parents don't care very much, they can easily become victims of interest exchange.

Fortunately, Mr. Pardon cares about his face, so he will definitely consider "a good match". At least the quality of life is guaranteed, and other relationships will not be considered at all.

Judging from Jia Lian's indifferent attitude towards the Spring Festival, it is estimated that there may be some conflicts.

Of course, Yingchun couldn't offend Jia Lian directly, so the only one could be Yingchun's long-dead aunt.

Not knowing the reason, Jia Huan didn't want to rush to Jia Lian's house to talk about the marriage in the Spring Festival.

Unless Yingchun's marriage event can help him live more comfortably in the officialdom, which is obviously unlikely, then simply don't go to Jia Lian.

In this way, while thinking and strolling leisurely, I returned to the martial arts hall, which is the headquarters of Ningrong Street Tangkou, when it was getting dark.

He didn't stay much, he just walked around the martial arts hall and the medical center. After knowing that everything was normal, he went out and went home directly, with plenty of guards around him as always.

It's not to show off one's power, nor to be too timid and afraid of getting into trouble, but to avoid some troublesome things.

With Jia Huan's martial arts training at this time, if he is properly prepared, he can even sneak into the palace quietly without being noticed. Even if there is any accidental exposure, he will be confident enough to escape safely.

Unless it was directly covered by heavy ordnance, such as a bed crossbow, it would not be that easy to kill him.

Sometimes Jia Huan is also quite curious, to what extent can his physical fitness be improved?
Jia Huan's physical state at this time, like those top experts in the low-level martial arts world, can be easily simulated.

But he didn't realize that he encountered a bottleneck in improving his physical fitness through the method of breathing.

Coupled with some of the fierce methods he had practiced before, it can be said that he has no opponent in the world.

At this time, if someone with evil intentions wants to assassinate someone, they are simply overestimating their capabilities and taking the initiative to kill someone, which will not have any effect at all.

Jia Huan has no intention of using himself as bait, nor does he want to fall into some conspiracy and calculation, so he can only strengthen the security around him so that some people with good intentions can see clearly that he wants to use physics The price to pay for the means is huge.

There's only so much he can do.

If someone who is not afraid of death comes to the house despite such precautions, Jia Huan really doesn't mind taking action and sending him to the west as early as possible to avoid wasting food and resources.

By the time I got home, it was already quite dark outside.

The house was lit with lights, completely illuminating the front and middle courtyards. The maids and servants came and went, and naturally the nurse with a strong physique and fierce aura was indispensable.

"Young master, the Xue family's uncle sent a greeting card before, saying that he will officially come to visit you in two days!"

As soon as he entered the door, the housekeeper came over with a delicate greeting card, placed it gently on the coffee table next to Jia Huan, and said with a chuckle: "I said there was no need to be so polite, but Uncle Xue refused!"

"Oh, since Xue Pan insists on this, there is no need to be polite to him!"

Glancing at the exquisite greeting card, Jia Huan nodded to express his understanding, feeling quite curious in his heart.
