Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

"what?"

Xu Guanzhong and Xiao Jiasui were taken aback. Did their brother mean that he had granted them a marriage?

"Since Guan Sheng has already been saved, let him save you for life."

Ren Yuan waved his hand.

"His son is just the right age, so let's just say he found himself a daughter-in-law."

"Brother, that's the royal blood of the Liao Kingdom, can you rest assured?"

Xiao Jiahui asked with a smile.

"So what? Since Guan Sheng dared to write to me, he must know what to do. This kid will probably never know he's from Liao, so what am I worried about?"

"Besides, the Guan family is known for its loyalty and righteousness, so it's perfect for the child to stay with them."

Ren Yuan said that instead of spending time and effort finding a family to adopt the child, it would be better to let Guan Sheng do it directly.

"Brother, you're still too soft-hearted. If it were someone else, they might lock them up for life."

Hsu Kuan-chung said, "Brother, you are indeed different from others!"

"Why lock up a child who knows nothing for a lifetime? Why not let her grow up properly?"

Ren Yuan was certainly aware of some of their thoughts, after all, this child had different bloodlines, with Liao Dynasty blood.

However, Ren Yuan felt that if she had been raised in Guan Sheng's house since she was a child, there wouldn't have been any problem. After all, Guan Sheng wouldn't be so foolish as to tell the child about her background. As for those with ulterior motives, let them try going to Guan Sheng's house if they have the ability.

"That's true. Why don't you just give him another name, brother? That way, no one will dare to have any designs on him again."

Xiao Jiahui felt that if Ren Yuan gave the child another name, the child would really be fine.

What do you want to call it?

Ren Yuan scratched his head; he wasn't very good at naming things either.

"First of all, what's your last name?"

"Brother, you've made Guan Sheng's hands itch, so of course he should take the surname Guan."

Hsiao Chia-hui shrugged, as if to say, "Is this a problem?"

"I'm sending him a daughter-in-law, not a daughter. Is it appropriate for her to have the surname Guan?"

Ren Yuan stared at him, saying, "Can you stop slacking off?!"

"Her father is Wuyan Guang, Wuyan, Guanzhong, what is Wuyan again?"

Ren Yuan turned to ask Xu Guanzhong, after all, this guy could be considered a walking encyclopedia.

"Wuyan, this surname should originate from the Wuyan tribe. If I remember correctly, 'Wuyan' means pig here."

Xu Guanzhong thought for a moment, and then said.

"pig?"

Ren Yuan was stunned. Good heavens, this was something he hadn't expected. So, Wu Yan Guang, you're actually Piggy Hero?

"Then, let's take the surname Zhu."

To respect Wuyan's wishes, Ren Yuan decided to give the child the surname Zhu.

"And what about the name? Guan Zhong has already mentioned the surname; you can tell me the given name."

"Hmm...it's simple. Her father gave her the surname, so she can use her mother's name. What was her mother's name again? Wasn't she known as the Pearl of the Grasslands? So her name is also Pearl."

Now it was Ren Yuan's turn to be dumbfounded. Wait a minute, you gave two "zhu"s? What's that called together, Zhu Zhu?

"Zhu Zhu, isn't this fine? Is there a problem?"

Hsiao Chia-hui and Hsu Kuan-chung silently repeated the name several times, and felt there was nothing wrong with it.

"Yes, there's no problem. Let's go with Zhu Zhu then."

Ren Yuan waved his hand. "That's true. Things are different now than in my previous life. This name is very good."

"Brother, Guanzhong and I each gave a name, what about you? You have to say something too."

"...Alright, Liao and Tie, let's call this child Tie Tie from now on."

Upon hearing Ren Yuan's words, Xiao Jiasui and Xu Guanzhong exchanged bewildered glances. "Wait, brother, are you serious? A girl named Tie Tie?"

"So what? Zhu Tietie, how cute! Guan Ling's name also has the meaning of metal and iron, so judging from their names, these two children are a perfect match."

Xiao Jiahui and Xu Guanzhong fell silent. After exchanging a glance, they silently resolved that they would never allow their older brother to name their children again.

……

The Southern Ming Dynasty.

During this period, the Ming Dynasty was truly in turmoil.

Firstly, the northwest of the Ming Dynasty, which was the former Huainan West Circuit and Jiangnan East Circuit of the Zhao Song Dynasty, had already been lost.

After all, no one can stop Du Xue now, and this guy has experts like Feng Tai and Zan Tongmei under his command, as well as strategists like Liu Min and Fang Xuedu!

If it weren't for Du Xue's need to defend against the Song army in the west, the Ming Dynasty would have lost even more territory.

Meanwhile, in Liangzhe Road, although it was the most secure territory of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Shuye's troops, who had already occupied Taihu Lake, firmly held onto the northern part of Liangzhe Road and could launch an attack on Hangzhou, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, at any time!

However, none of this seemed to have caught the attention of the Ming Dynasty's leadership; all they were doing now was vying for power.

After receiving guidance at Liangshan, Fang Tianding returned to Hangzhou and truly embodied the spirit of "filial piety." He spent all his time serving the unconscious Fang La, bringing him medicine and water, and wiping his body.

As a result, those high-ranking officials of the Ming Dynasty who were still wavering and observing were immediately won over by Fang Tianding's performance. They felt that Fang Tianding's behavior and temperament seemed more suitable to be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

However, Fang Jie did not seem to realize the seriousness of the problem. He was still showing off his martial prowess in the army. Although he could not beat Du Xue, he could fight Feng Tai and Zan Tongmei.

In addition, his deputy, Du Wei, is unmatched in throwing knives throughout the south. If Fang Jie is ever outmatched, Du Wei will immediately step in and provide long-range support to Fang Jie with his throwing knives!

Therefore, Fang Jie's battle record during this period is verifiable, and he still enjoys great popularity in the army! The competition between the two sides is becoming increasingly fierce!

"Ah Jie, do you know what Tian Ding has been up to lately?"

As Fang Jie's grandfather and Fang Jie's biggest supporter, Fang Hou was somewhat sensitive to the situation.

"Brother Tianding? I heard he's been staying in Uncle's house the whole time."

Fang Jie didn't really have much of a feeling about Fang Tianding. Even though many people kept saying that Fang Tianding was his biggest obstacle, Fang Jie's superior strength meant he wouldn't even consider Fang Tianding.

“You can’t stay in the army forever. You should go and stay with your uncle, even if it’s just for show.”

Fang Hou felt that Fang Jie also needed to put on a show of these courtesies, otherwise he would definitely be influenced by Fang Tianding.

"Grandpa, there's no need for that. I control 70% of the entire Ming Dynasty's army. What do I need to worry about?"

Fang Jie shook his head. He was not willing to do those servitude jobs. Wouldn't it be better for him to use that time to kill more people on the battlefield?

“Ah Jie, if you want to successfully inherit the entire Ming Dynasty, there are some things you still need to do, otherwise you won’t be able to win people’s hearts.”

Fang Hou sighed. Although the child's martial arts skills had improved, his personality had become even more arrogant. If this continued, something bad would happen!

No, he has to do something...
