Longevity: Never leave the mountain until you are invincible

"Don't you know that you have practiced martial arts?"

Chu Chen chuckled.

An ordinary person who wants to practice Liuhe Quan to a high level can only practice it over and over again, carefully feel the differences, adjust his body's force-generating techniques, body posture, etc.

I don’t know how much time it will take and how many detours it will take.

If an expert helps to correct it, it can save a lot of effort.

With Old Shen's careful teachings, Chu Chen was equivalent to having a master who paid for nothing and saved a lot of expenses.

Delightful!

In the days that followed, his life became very regular.

Every morning, I go to the medicine shop to practice. After practicing, I open the door to receive customers.

The business of the pawn shop has always been tepid. He spent most of his time looking at the store and reading books to increase his understanding of Dayan Country and the world.

All kinds of travel notes, unofficial histories, official histories, storybooks, etc. are welcome.

These books are all collected by Old Shen.

Occasionally, Chu Chen would close his shop and visit the imperial capital to learn about the customs and customs of the Yan Kingdom, which made his life extremely fulfilling.

Entering Manchunyuan by mistake once opened the door to a new world.

Please believe it.

Chu Chen really entered Manchun Courtyard by mistake.

From then on, he understood that he could be so happy without Bing Kuo Luo.

Um.

Chu Chen practiced Liuhe Quan more seriously.

The Six Fists were body-building boxing techniques that had their own way of locking the essence and solidifying the yang, and he was very satisfied with it.

A month later, I started to learn Liuhequan.

"Finally got started."

Chu Chen took a long breath to calm down the boiling blood in his body.

His martial arts talent is much better than that of Chu's father, but he is not much better. In addition, he is a bit older. After practicing for a month, he is worthy of entry.

During this period, Old Shen also took out a lot of medicinal materials and boiled them into medicinal baths to assist Chu Chen in his practice. Otherwise, he would not be able to get started in one month.

However, Chu Chen didn't care. His biggest advantage was time.

After decades of practice, he will be able to cultivate Liuhe Quan to the highest level.

"Quick, follow up!"

At this time, a dull sound of footsteps and the sound of gold and iron colliding suddenly came from outside the pawn shop.

Chu Chen quickly came to the window, looked out through the window, and saw a group of soldiers wearing black armor and holding weapons, rushing towards the interior of the imperial capital.

"Praetorian Guards!"

Chu Chen's heart trembled, and his expression instantly became solemn.

The Royal Guards are not an ordinary army. They are the most important force in protecting the imperial capital. They are usually stationed at the Imperial Guard camp outside the imperial capital and generally do not move lightly.

"Only one squad of Praetorian Guards?"

Chu Chen was a little surprised. The Imperial Guard was organized on the basis of teams, with ten people in each team.

If the Imperial Guards entered the imperial capital in large numbers, it was likely that there was some problem within the palace, but a group of Imperial Guards suddenly entered the imperial capital, which was unusual.

"Stop guessing, this is probably the handiwork of that stupid overlord who is the Minister of War."

Old Shen's voice interrupted Chu Chen's thinking.

"Zhang Pan?"

Since January, Chu Chen has been lingering in Manchun Courtyard and has often heard other guests talk about this silly overlord.

The eldest son of the Secretary of the Ministry of War, the second generation of top power, and a famous playboy in the imperial capital.

Logically speaking, the Imperial Guard is the emperor's private army and cannot be mobilized without the emperor's imperial order. Even the Minister of War cannot mobilize the Imperial Guard at will.

But Zhang Pan was different. His father was the queen's brother.

Emperor Jingzheng reigned for thirty-one years. He contracted a serious illness the year before last and no longer went to court. Most of the daily memorials were sent to the Yangxin Hall by the queen, and then personally reviewed by Emperor Jingzheng.

But everyone knew that Emperor Jingzheng was seriously ill and had no intention of dealing with affairs in the court, so the empress basically handled all memorials.

The queen single-handedly controls the court, and can decide all matters of the Yan Kingdom with a single word.

The status of the Zhang family, the queen's mother family, has risen sharply. As the queen's nephew, Zhang Pan is even more arrogant and domineering in the imperial capital, acting wantonly and even mobilizing the imperial guards at will.

Because of his lack of knowledge and skills, he made many jokes and earned the nickname "Stupid Overlord".

"I don't know which girl is attracted by Dai Bawang again?"

Old Shen leaned against the door of the drug store, shook his head and sighed.

A few days later.

Specific news about this matter spread subsequently.

"Poor for the wealthy businessman from Lingbei. He just came to the imperial capital a few days ago. Just because the stupid overlord accidentally bumped into the rich businessman's wife and coveted her beauty, he asked the rich businessman from Lingbei to divorce his wife so that he could take her as his concubine.

The wealthy businessmen in Lingbei refused to comply, which was why the imperial guards acted that day. "

Li Xiaoer, the waiter at Zuixian Tower, whispered.

"What's the result for the wealthy businessman family in Lingbei?"

Chu Chen asked.

"Alas, those who died died, those who were imprisoned were imprisoned, and the wives of wealthy businessmen were also kidnapped into Zhang's house."

Li Xiaoer's answer did not exceed Chu Chen's expectations.

Several people around were silent.

"I mobilized the Imperial Guard privately, broke down houses, and robbed wives. Isn't there anyone who cares about it?"

Chef Zhao of Zuixian Tower was extremely angry for some reason.

"So what if someone is in charge of it? After the news came out, Dai Bawang was forced into the sky prison by people from the six gates, but with his identity, how many days can he stay in the sky prison?"

Li Xiaoer shrugged.

The few people looked at each other in silence. Everyone knew that Zhang Pan could not be convicted by the people from the Six Gates. He would be locked up for a few days at most and would be released when the storm subsided.

In the sky prison, the jailer will also serve you with delicious food and drinks.

As for the wealthy businessman from Lingbei, he is dead and no one will care.

correct.

The wealthy businessman from Lingbei was named Feng Yuan.

It is homophonic to "every resentment", which means to be wronged.

"Let's have a good name in the next life."

Chu Chen sighed.

Feng Yuan's affairs have little to do with him, just a topic of conversation after dinner.

He can't manage it, and he has no ability to manage it.

Keeping his duty and keeping a low profile are what he should do at this stage.

...

As Li Xiaoer and others said, Zhang Pan was soon released by the Six Gates. On the day he left the prison, Feng Yuan's wife was officially taken as a concubine by Zhang Pan.

Three days later.

Zuixianlou changed a chef.

Chef Zhao died, beaten to death by several followers of Zhang Pan.

The reason was that Chef Zhao wanted to poison Zhang Pan, but was discovered by the master accompanying Zhang Pan, and failed.

Afterwards, everyone knew that Chef Zhao was a distant relative of Feng Yuan, and Feng Yuan had done him a favor. In order to avenge Feng Yuan, he wanted to poison Zhang Pan.

"How unwise!"

Chu Chen felt that Chef Zhao was too irrational.

Not to mention that Zhang Pan was guarded by experts, the success rate of poisoning was not high.

Even if Zhang Pan was successfully poisoned, Chef Zhao would not escape death.

"Be more patient, maybe the result would be different."

If Chu Chen was in Chef Zhao's position, Chu Chen would choose another way.

Wait patiently until Zhang's fall and Zhang Pan loses power, and then attack Zhang Pan.

Zhang Pan is just a dandy, and his confidence in doing whatever he wants is Zhang's. If the Zhang family is lonely, Chef Zhao will not care how he wants to poison Zhang Pan.

And the fall of Zhang's family is not a delusion.

Don't look at the fact that the queen is in control of the government, and the foreign relatives Zhang are in power in Dayan. The queen's brothers and sisters occupy key positions in Dayan's court, such as the Minister of War.

But Zhang's foundation is still too shallow.

For example, the queen's brother, although he is the Minister of War, has no military power and has little control over the Great Yan army. At most, he can command some of the imperial guards.

Once the queen has problems, the Zhang family will be destroyed in an instant.

Of course, the queen is now in power, and the Zhang family is at its peak of power.

No one dares to provoke them.
