My Immortal Brother-in-law

Chapter 13 Call the wind and rain!

Outside the hall, Zhong Su waited for a while, and then a eunuch brought him into the hall.

Facing the expressionless gazes of Zixian and Taiding, Zhong Su walked up to the steps and bowed.

"Zhong Su greets the king and His Highness."

"sit down."

Tai Ding responded in an extremely calm manner.

If Zhong Su had not seen the two Yuefu who had just been beheaded outside the palace, Zhong Su might have actually thought that Tai Ding was in a good mood.

As for now.

Zhong Su knelt down on the couch in an orderly manner and bowed to Tai Ding.

"Your Majesty!"

After the ceremony, Zhong Su said softly.

“Feeling that my father died in the Western Yi, I decided to travel the wilderness, practice the way of Qi training, and learn some skills to avenge my father.

Therefore, I resign my position as a senior official and also give up my fiefdom in Zhongshan, and concentrate on practicing Qigong until I achieve something. Then, I will ask the king to grant me my homeland based on my merits, so as to live up to the aspirations of a young man.

Please allow me, Your Majesty!"

After he finished speaking, Zhong Su bowed again and waited calmly for Tai Ding's reply.

As for Tai Ding, he looked at Zixian in surprise, his eyes seemed to be asking...did you teach him?

Facing his father's gaze, Zixian shook his head slightly. He was also surprised by Zhong Su's words.

Originally, he was worried that Zhong Sulu would come to ask for an official position or a reward without any tact. After all, Zhong Sulu had not been very good in the past twenty years.

but now…….

Zixian could only say that Zhong Su had become sensible.

Now that his father is repeatedly angered by Xiqi, Zhong Suli really shouldn't stay in the court and be the fire starter that could ignite the firewood pile at any time.

What surprised Zixian was that Zhong Su not only wanted to resign from his post, but even wanted to give up his own fiefdom.

It’s not like the Shang Dynasty had no princes who voluntarily asked to give up their fiefdoms, and giving up their fiefdoms was not a big deal. For princes who had no ambition to run their fiefdoms, they could ask to give up, and the Emperor could reward them with fiefdoms again at any time.

But the point is that an official position in Da Shang can be held at any time. Even if Zhong Su achieves nothing in the future, as long as he has a good relationship with the king, he can become an official again at any time.

However, to be granted a fiefdom, one must have made real contributions before the Emperor can reward him.

If Zhong Suli achieves nothing in the future, then he will really have nothing!

Could it be that Su Di is really so determined?

Just as Zixuan was guessing in confusion, Taiding's expression suddenly changed. Taiding, who had just appeared extremely calm, immediately put on a smile.

"Haha, my nephew has finally grown up!

Uncle, I have waited for this day for too long. You, the little devil who only knows how to make me worry, finally have your ambitions raised today.

If my uncle were to say, you should have this kind of determination. As a man, you should earn your fiefdom by yourself. That’s called ability!

I looked down on my brother-in-law from the beginning. Even though he is now dead, I have to tell you the truth. I look down on people like your father who have no real abilities and rely on the influence of his ancestors and my sister for everything.

You are only around twenty years old now, which is a good age to achieve success. It is not too late to practice now. I don’t mind waiting for you for ten years, just like you waited for Wen Zhong!
Good boy, you have made progress. I am so happy for my sister, haha!"

Tai Ding's annoyance was relieved a lot. His nephew seemed to have become a man of great ability, which reminded him of his dead sister. If Zhong Su just resigned, it would undoubtedly be playing tricks on the court. Although Tai Ding would certainly allow it, he would dislike this nephew who tried to avoid his anger even more.

But the nephew didn't even want the fiefdom, what determination he had.

This is really a huge investment!

This means that if his nephew does not satisfy him in the future, Zhong Guo will no longer exist, and the Zhong family’s business operations over the past 260 years will also disappear with the wind!
The fact that my nephew can make such a decision means that he is really determined to practice qigong and strengthen his body!

With his nephew's qualifications of royal blood, as long as his nephew really works hard, Tai Ding will seem to see the next Wen Zhong rising!
For a moment, Tai Ding was so impressed that he actually stood up, knelt down beside Zhong Su, put his arm around Zhong Su's shoulders and continued talking.

"Let me think about it. I can indeed help you give up your fiefdom first to strengthen your resolve, but I cannot give up all of it.

Even if you really become a cultivator in the future, you should have a temple within the territory of Great Shang.

After all, you are also the descendant of our Great Shang Dynasty, the descendant of the Xuanniao bloodline!
How about this? I will return your family's Zhong land first, and only leave Zhongshan to you as a place of practice. As for the rest, when you have successfully cultivated and returned to Dashang, and when you have made great achievements, your uncle will reward you generously! "

As soon as he finished speaking, Tai Ding waved his hand impatiently and called the eunuch over without waiting for Zhong Su to thank him.

"Someone is coming."

He ordered excitedly.

"Take one of my precious robes and use it to protect my nephew!
I know that Zixian gave you a white tiger, but the wilderness is dangerous. A white tiger is of little use. You also need a robe to protect you and observe etiquette.

I think about it, your white tiger is good at driving away the wind, right? Then I will give you a rain master robe, so that you can call the wind and rain, isn’t it wonderful, haha!"

Accompanied by Tai Ding's loud laughter, Zhong Su gratefully took the Rain Master robe brought by the eunuch and put it on in the hall.

The light blue robe of the Rain Master looked particularly magical. While the blue cloth was embellished with flying dragon cloud patterns, there were also flying clouds and mists hovering above and below the robe, making Zhong Su look like a god.

If it were just a change in special effects, it would be fine, but the key point is that after Zhong Su put on the Rain Master robe, four big words actually appeared in his heart again!

Call the wind and call the rain!!!

Clearly, everything was just a joke from Tai Ding, but as Zhong Suli felt the golden light rushing straight to his head, he actually lit up another Tiangang transformation!
It's not even just lighting up, but the Tiangang and Disha have already grasped the cause and effect relationship, and are once again reversing cause and effect, directly turning the power of calling the wind and rain into another innate magical power of Zhong Su!
After he had painstakingly acquired the magical power of repairing the sky and bathing the sun, in just half a day, Zhong Su inexplicably mastered the ability to call the wind and rain!!!
This kind of development really made Zhong Su unable to control himself!

At the side, seeing his nephew standing there in his robe, Tai Ding rubbed his beard with emotion.

"As expected of my nephew, he looks very much like my sister, so handsome!

Zixian, look carefully, this is your brother, and also a loyal courtier you can rely on in the future!
When you ascend the throne in the future, your disciple Gan can be the Grand Tutor, your brother Shang Rong can be the Prime Minister, and your brother Wen Zhong can be the Grand Tutor.

And when Zhong Su returns after completing his studies, he can temporarily become the head of the Nine Ministers, ready to replace the above three people at any time. This is a good hand I leave for you!
Having a father like me, even I secretly envy you.

After all, my father is far inferior to your father!

My father was cruel and violent, but your father was a man of great talent and vision, isn't that right?"

"That's right, that's right!"

Listening to his father's bragging, Zixian agreed and let out a long sigh.

Not only has the father completely calmed down, but his mood has also improved because of Sudi. Sudi's desperate move just now was really brilliant!

He was even more radical than I had instructed him to be. Not only did he resign from his official position, he also simply gave up his fiefdom. I didn't even dare to instruct my younger brother Su in that way.

Looking at my father's current mood, I think it's my younger brother who has more courage!

Hey Sudi, you are really my great teammate!
