Huangxiu

Chapter 118: Bamboo Bar
After the two graceful figures disappeared in the crowd, Chu Mingxuan turned his head to look at Chu Zhiyuan and said with emotion: "She has really become a Grandmaster, a Grandmaster at the age of 23. Now, Huang Shirong will be famous all over the world."

Chu Zhiting looked longing: "Yes, famous all over the world."

He had long lost interest in military achievements. He only dreamed of one day being able to break through to the master level or become a grand master like Huang Shirong, so that his name would be known to everyone in the world.

"Hurry up and become a Grandmaster soon, Fourth Brother!" said Chu Mingxuan.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Uncle Eighteen, the fact that our Dajing has a 23-year-old Grandmaster will greatly boost the prosperity of our country and the morale of the people. This is a good thing."

"It's a good thing, but if it's you, it would be even better!" Chu Mingxuan said.

Chu Zhiyao said: "Uncle Eighteen, don't be too eager for quick success. You still have to be down-to-earth in your cultivation and don't think too much."

Chu Mingxuan glanced at him and said, "If you had gone to the Kangguo Mansion less often and met the Third Miss of the Kang family less often, you wouldn't have reached your current level of cultivation!"

"Eighteenth Uncle!" Chu Zhiyao was dissatisfied.

"You are not practicing diligently!" Chu Mingxuan said unhappily, "Remember, women are the most disturbing to one's cultivation!"

"Uncle Eighteen! We can't generalize!" Chu Zhiyao firmly disagreed.

The harmony of yin and yang is the best state for spiritual practice. Practicing next to Miss Kang San, the efficiency is particularly high and the mind is exceptionally smart.

Chu Zhiyuan still acted as a peacemaker at this time and changed the subject: "Uncle Eighteen, Third Brother, let's separate here."

Everyone stopped.

Chu Zhiyuan pondered for a moment and looked at Chu Zhiyao.

Chu Zhiyao asked, "Fourth brother, what's wrong?"

Chu Zhiyuan sighed and said, "Third brother, I have to say hello to you in advance."

"What's the greeting?"

"Since Duke Kang is so ignorant and doesn't teach his son well, I have no choice but to take action."

Chu Zhiting and Chu Zhichuan looked over fiercely.

Chu Mingxuan clapped his hands and laughed, "Let's do it! Teach him a lesson and see what Duke Kangguo has to say!"

"…Just don't let anyone die, and give him a good beating!" Chu Zhiyao gritted his teeth.

"No one will die," Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand. "I will use different strengths. Didn't Duke Kangguo say he can't get out of bed? Then let him stay in bed."

"Yes, just let him lie paralyzed on the bed!" Chu Mingxuan said.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "You'll have to lie down for a few days at least."

"A few days? Too light, too light!" Chu Mingxuan was dissatisfied.

"Uncle Eighteen, a few days is the limit." Chu Zhiyuan said, "We can't just destroy him."

There must be some magical medicine in the mansion of Duke Kangguo. No matter how serious the injury is, it will not last too long. After taking the magical medicine, one can recover quickly.

Chu Mingxuan snorted, "If it were me, I would just destroy him and see what that old Duke Kang would dare to do!"

Duke Kangguo is very powerful in the army, but so what? He is under the command of his tenth brother, and no matter how dissatisfied Duke Kangguo's subordinates are, they dare not cause trouble for him.

If Duke Kangguo really dares to deal with my prince, my father will not let him off!
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "After all, it's not a big deal. There's no need to waste it. Tell Third Brother in advance so that he won't be caught in the middle and get embarrassed."

"What's the problem?" Chu Zhiyao said, "I've wanted to deal with him for a long time. It's fun to watch you deal with him."

"It's good that Third Brother doesn't make things difficult for me," Chu Zhiyuan nodded, "If Song Tianhai doesn't want to be beaten, then he should pay compensation."

"Hmm——!" The four of them were stunned.

“Dragon Blood Pearl.” Chu Zhiyuan said, “The fifth-grade dragon blood pearls that can be exchanged at Tianbao Division are… three.”

Using two more will almost complete the marrow refining. Using three will be safer and leave some room for margin.

The four of them widened their eyes.

"Fourth Brother, did I hear it correctly?" Chu Mingxuan asked.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "There is nothing I can do. My family is too poor and people with poor ambitions have low aspirations."

"You want to use the dragon blood beads to practice?"

"I need it for the Dragon Transformation Technique of the Dragon Subduing Sect that I'm practicing. Does Uncle Eighteen have it?"

"Really not." Chu Mingxuan said helplessly: "If I really had the fifth-grade power, I wouldn't exchange it for it. Which elixir is not stronger than it?"

Chu Zhiyuan looked at Chu Zhiyao and said, "Let's put it this way. Let's see what Duke Kangguo chooses." "Fourth brother, you..." Chu Zhiyao smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, I'll go talk to Duke Kangguo."

Chu Zhiyuan said: "I really want to teach Song Tianhai a lesson, but for the sake of both of us, I will just have to bear it as long as I have the Three Dragon Blood Pearls."

"Okay, okay." Chu Zhiyao smiled bitterly.

Chu Zhiting and Chu Zhichuan blinked, with strange looks in their eyes.

They looked at Chu Zhiyuan again and again.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Ninth brother, tenth brother, what's the matter?"

"...Fourth brother, only three dragon blood beads are too cheap for Song Tianhai. I would like ten!" Chu Zhiting said fiercely.

Suddenly I found it very interesting.

Fourth brother is trying to blackmail Duke Kangguo.

"Ten?" Chu Zhiyuan said, "With ten, I think Duke Kang will grit his teeth and give up Song Tianhai, letting me beat him to my heart's content."

"Haha..." Chu Mingxuan and the other three couldn't help but laugh.

Chu Zhiyuan looked towards the direction of the palace.

If Duke Kangguo didn't hand over the three dragon blood beads, I wonder if the emperor would give them to himself to avoid bringing shame to the royal family.

-

"My Lord, that guy has never left the house."

Chu Zhiyuan sat behind the desk in the study, holding the Miaoling Pearl in one hand and the Dragon Blood Pearl in the other, listening to Liang Guanjie's report.

The bright midday sun shone through the window, illuminating his face and making his eyes sparkle like morning stars.

"Are you really lying in bed?" Chu Zhiyuan asked.

Liang Guanjie curled his lips: "He is so lively, but he is under strict house arrest and cannot come out."

"House arrest..." Chu Zhiyuan murmured.

Duke Kangguo is worthy of being a good military commander.

He obviously expected that he would beat Song Tianhai and avoided the risk in advance.

Liang Guanjie watched eagerly.

He also knew what Song Tianhai had done and was eager to deal with Song Tianhai, so he was very attentive in the tracking mission.

Not only did he follow, he also used various methods to find out the news in Duke Kangguo's mansion. He spent a lot of money, but he enjoyed it.

Chu Zhiyuan thought for a moment and said, "Take 100 taels of silver from Zou Fang and find a smart person from the Duke Kangguo's Mansion. Once you get to know him well, you can find out Song Tianhai's whereabouts in time."

"My Lord, do you want to deal with him?"

"Do you think he can leave the house?"

"Isn't he grounded?"

"Will he sneak out then?"

"...Yes." Liang Guanjie nodded vigorously: "Duke Kang is strict in managing the army, but not in managing his family. He can't control Song Tianhai."

"That's good." Chu Zhiyuan said, "Pull someone smart and don't let Duke Kang find out."

"Yes!" Liang Guanjie clasped his fists tightly and stepped back.

Chu Zhiyuan saw through Zou Fang's hesitation and turned his head to glance at him: "Just say whatever you want to say!"

"My Lord, Duke Kang, Duke Shou, and Duke Hui are all in good touch and support each other. If we offend them too much, I'm afraid the other two dukes' houses will also try to trip us up in secret."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Let's go to the Anguo Mansion tomorrow afternoon. We have been engaged for so long, we can't just not visit once."

"Yes, let's post it now." Zou Fang said quickly.

The eight dukes' palaces were not united and were divided into three groups: Duke Kang, Duke Shou, Duke Hui, Duke An, Duke Ren, Duke Yi, and the remaining Dukes were Duke Li and Duke Xin.

The prince should indeed go to the Duke Anguo's mansion for a walk.
