The Lord of Another World: All Wasted at the Beginning, and He Made His Fortune by Taking in the Fem

"Boy, come over here and talk."

Although the competition was over, there were still many people active in the martial arts arena. Lingqing Wushen didn't seem to want others to hear what he was going to say, so he brought Aarons and the other two back to the mansion.

"I originally thought that you, little fellow, had nothing in your hands, and I was going to help you a little. But seeing that you have these two strange girls accompanying you, I can rest assured."

"Thank you for your care, Martial God. I'll keep it in mind."

It seems that the Martial God Lingqing has some affection for me?

Aarons was not sure where this good impression came from, so he could only thank him respectfully. However, this strong man who looked only in his thirties seemed to have seen through Aarons' thoughts and immediately reached out and patted him on the shoulder.

"Boy, your father and your brother both learned a few moves from me... I think their deaths were not worth it, so I don't want you to follow in their footsteps."

"What the God of War means is that someone in the imperial capital has some opinions about the Marquis family?"

"Opinion? In my opinion, your family was murdered! It's a pity that I haven't been involved in government affairs for many years, and I don't know who is behind it."

It seems that Ling Qing Wushen really wants to help Aarons because he is sad about the death of Marquis Moti.

"Listen carefully, kid. Although those people probably won't kill you right now since you have no talent, if you become outstanding in some aspect in the future, they might target you again."

——This is indeed a tricky question.

Aarons' goal was to regain control of the Marquisate, but the mastermind behind the murder of the Marquis's family would certainly not be happy with this outcome. So if he revealed his thoughts and strength in advance, he would definitely be plotted against by the other party.

However, if he completely hid behind the scenes, he would not be able to gain popularity. Even if he really took control of the territory secretly, he would still not be recognized by others.

"I am a dull boy, I hope Your Excellency the God of War can give me some pointers."

"The Marquis once mentioned this possibility to me. He said at the time that he and his youngest son were too famous and might be killed. Although I didn't know what to do, he did suggest a solution."

The Marquis had been prepared for this outcome? This surprised Aarons.

"He told me at the time that even if something like that really happened, there was an incompetent eldest son in the family who could continue the bloodline of the Marquis. If he really met with an accident, he asked me to help the boy find a family to marry into."

...Isn’t this the same as what Xia Ye said?

"But with your level, there won't be many families willing to let you marry into the family, right?"

"Ha, I also think this is a stupid idea. The nobles of the empire all hope that their offspring can make further progress, so there will definitely not be many people willing to accept you as their disciple. But the Marquis spoke very seriously at the time, so I agreed to it."

——This is actually equivalent to saying nothing.

Although marrying into the wife's family sounds simple, it is impossible for Aarons, the son of a marquis with no family property and no strength, to find a partner of equal status.

After all, the talents of the strong are not necessarily passed on to the next generation - he himself is the best example.

"Thank you for your concern, Lord Wushen, but I really don't have the heart to get married right now."

"Forget it, let's discuss this matter later. You should go directly to see His Majesty tomorrow and listen to what His Majesty has planned for you. After you hear what His Majesty wants, come and talk to me."

"Thank you for your concern, Lord Wushen. It's getting late, so I'll take my leave now."

Aarons realized that Lingqing Wushen didn't seem to be able to give him much hints, so he didn't plan to pester him anymore. He took the initiative to propose the idea of ​​leaving, and the other party didn't try to stop him.

"Go ahead. I have to discuss this matter with others first."

After saying goodbye, Aarons immediately left the mansion with the two strange beauties.

But before he walked out of the door, he always felt that there was a gaze on him from nowhere.

……

After a simple night's rest in a not-so-high-end hotel, Aarons brought Karin and Xia Ye to the gate of the imperial city again early the next morning.

This time, the old gatekeeper stood up from his seat on his own initiative after seeing him.

"His Majesty has summoned Aarons Moti to see you. You are allowed to enter this door alone, and the attendants will wait outside."

After briefly speaking to Karin and Xia Ye, Aarons followed a golden-armored guard into the barrier of the imperial city.

However, the grand gate was not opened for him, so he could only enter the imperial city through the small door on the side.

"Follow me closely, don't run around randomly."

After they really entered the imperial city, the golden armored guard took the initiative to remind them, and Aarons just nodded without expressing any opinion.

Running around in a place like this? If you end up somewhere you shouldn't be, you might lose your life.

Aarons, who knew the basic rules of the confidential area, followed the golden armored guards carefully, not even daring to wander his eyes. After passing through several gates, he finally saw his destination.

——It was a side hall with a rather plain appearance, not the main hall used by the ministers when they attended court. And the people the emperor met in such a place were most likely those who were not valued.

However, after thinking that his identity was not actually that of a true noble, Aarons accepted such treatment.

For a nobleman like me with no special abilities, being able to meet the emperor is already a great favor to me. How could I have the confidence to make so many demands?

"Please wait here for a moment."

The golden armored guards brought Aarons to the side hall door and asked him to stop temporarily. A man who looked like a servant outside the hall door immediately turned around and entered the hall after seeing Aarons.

Although he had a lot of experience meeting officials in his previous life, Aarons still became nervous at this time - after all, the person he was about to meet was the real ruler of a country. If he was negligent in any way and angered the emperor, it might be a luxury for him to even get out alive.

"Your Majesty summons Aarons Moti, son of Marquis Moti, to see you. Please come in."

After waiting for a few minutes, the attendant came out of the hall and loudly announced to Aarons. After hearing the announcement, Aarons took the initiative to walk up the steps and bowed slightly to the attendant.

What follows next is the moment that determines your future destiny - even if there is no room for bargaining, proper etiquette is still necessary.

"——This humble servant, Aarons Moti, is here to see Your Majesty."
