The evil forces roaming the heavens

Chapter 1273 Lin Daiyu's Transformation Plan!
Night falls, and the stars hang high in the sky.
After searching for Lin Daiyu all day, Jia Lian finally received news that she had likely been taken away by the Earl of Zhongwu.
Remembering that someone had mentioned earlier that the Earl of Zhongwu had raised the Jia family's banner at the port, Jia Lian guessed that Lin Daiyu had likely gotten into the wrong sedan chair.

After all, she had just arrived in the capital from Yangzhou and only knew that her maternal grandmother's family was quite powerful. It was very likely that the people below her had misunderstood!

But what did Jia Jue mean by taking Lin Daiyu away? Did he just buy groceries on the way and bring her home?

After Jia Lian told Wang Xifeng the news, she asked with considerable doubt, "Did we get into the wrong sedan chair?"

"That's most likely the case, otherwise how could there be no news at all!"

When asked to speak to Wang Xifeng, Jia Lian couldn't help but say, "Aren't we supposed to send out invitations tomorrow? Why don't I go and find out what's going on?"

"You go?"

Pointing at Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng couldn't help but chuckle.

"Am I not good enough?"

Looking at Wang Xifeng beside him, Jia Lian immediately asked her a question.
"You've probably forgotten that last time you went to Jiangnan with Lai Da, someone had their leg broken!"

As she addressed Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng couldn't help but narrow her eyes.

"That's true, but besides me, is there anyone else in this mansion?"

Looking at Wang Xifeng, Jia Lian was also having a headache. Asking Jia Zheng and Jia She to come forward would be taking it too seriously, but if he went, it would be underestimating her. Neither way was right!
"How about we gather under the guise of a family reunion?"

Seeing Jia Lian beside her with a headache, Wang Xifeng inquired about his condition.
"That's a good idea. In that case, I'll go!"

As he spoke to Wang Xifeng, Jia Lian's hand slowly began to stroke upwards.
"You brain-dead bastard, get out of here! You still smell of perfume on you!"

Seeing Jia Lian's actions, Wang Xifeng pushed him aside as well.

Looking at Wang Xifeng, Jia Lian also stood up angrily and said, "Hmph, I refuse to believe we can't find her!"

Watching Jia Lian turn and leave, Wang Xifeng had originally wanted him to say a few conciliatory words, but seeing his attitude, she immediately roared angrily, "Your mind is full of filth! If you leave, don't come back!"

"If you don't come back, then don't come back!"

Upon reaching the door, Jia Lian heard this and immediately turned around, peering out and shouting.

"roll!"

Wang Xifeng was furious when she threw the bottle.

The next morning, before dawn,

Lin Daiyu was awakened by her maid, Xueyan.
Looking at Xueyan in a daze, Lin Daiyu asked somewhat confusedly, "Xueyan, what is it?"

"Miss, Uncle Zhongyong wants you to go to the yard to exercise! He said that Grandma said you are in poor health and must exercise more!"

Speaking to Lin Daiyu, Xueyan also felt a headache coming on.
Because who would stop people from sleeping and make them exercise so early in the morning?
However, thinking that Zhang Cheng was probably retaliating against her for what happened yesterday, Lin Daiyu pouted and said, "Second-class Earl, huh? So stingy!"

"Miss, the Marquis of Zhongyong is waiting for you outside!"

When Xueyan spoke to Lin Daiyu, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
"Hmph, I'll get up right now!"

With Xueyan's help, Lin Daiyu dressed and then slowly walked into the courtyard.
But when she saw Zhang Cheng dressed in casual clothes and with his hair tied up with a hairpin, she couldn't help but be surprised.
In her heart, her father was a first-rate man, but Zhang Cheng before her possessed an aura no less imposing than her father's.
"Didn't Lin Daiyu sleep well?"

Looking at Lin Daiyu with a broad smile, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but tease her.
"My sister didn't sleep well, and I'm so grateful that my brother came to wake me up early this morning!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Lin Daiyu rolled her eyes and immediately retorted.

Looking at Lin Duidui's expression, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but squint his eyes and say, "In that case, Lin sister, you must cherish your time. Haven't you heard that time flies like a galloping horse and the sun and moon are like falling flowers and flowing water? Your little body is too weak, you won't be able to find a suitable husband in the future!"

"you?"

Looking up at Zhang Cheng, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but feel annoyed.
"Look at your elder brother, I'm only four years older than you, and I can already fight on horseback and capture tigers on foot!" teasing Lin Daiyu, Zhang Cheng walked into the courtyard and said, "Come on, your elder brother will teach you martial arts, and I will definitely train you to become a first-rate man in the future!"

"Pfft!"

Unable to suppress a laugh, Xueyan burst out laughing upon hearing Zhang Cheng's words.
Because of what the Marquis of Zhongwu said, "He's going to train the young lady to be a first-rate man!"
"Snow Goose?"

Turning to look at Xueyan, Lin Daiyu had already clenched her fists.
She discovered that she could not only out-argue Zhang Cheng, but also out-beat him, which made Lin Daiyu feel terrible!
"Come, do it with your brother, let's start by regulating your meridians."

As Zhang Cheng addressed Lin Daiyu, he smiled, but his hands were already preparing to execute the Divine Illumination Scripture.

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Lin Daiyu pouted, her face full of dissatisfaction.
But just then, Zhang Cheng turned his head and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't want to learn. Today at court, I will report to His Majesty that Lord Lin Ruhai frequents brothels in Yangzhou, indulging in nightly revelry and keeping three hundred 'skinny horses' as a concubine."

"You're talking nonsense! How could my father be like this!"

Looking angrily at Zhang Cheng, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but feel annoyed.
"I know, but that doesn't stop me from being a treacherous minister! Right!"

With a broad smile, Zhang Cheng mimicked Lin Daiyu's winking gesture from yesterday and asked, "Shall I mimic her?"

"study!"

Lin Daiyu glared at Zhang Cheng through gritted teeth, genuinely afraid that he would make a rash report in court and ruin her father's reputation.
"Xueyan, you can learn from her too. After all, your young lady is physically weak. If something happens and she can't win an argument, you can help her win!"

Zhang Cheng smiled as he spoke to Xueyan.

"Really? My lord!"

Xueyan looked at Zhang Cheng in surprise, and became astonished.
"Of course, everyone in my Jia family can learn it, but you mustn't tell anyone else."

Looking at Xueyan, Zhang Cheng smiled.
"Follow the meridians, unblock the channels, stabilize the bones, nourish the spirit and soul, and calm the mind."

Just after Lin Daiyu and Xueyan finished two sets of combo moves with Zhang Cheng, they immediately felt a surge of heat in their bodies, and sweat poured out.

Under normal circumstances, Lin Daiyu would have collapsed long ago, but today she surprisingly felt very energetic, which was quite strange.

After finishing two more sets, Zhang Cheng said nonchalantly, "Alright, that's enough for today. Go wash up! You stink to death, this Earl!"

"Stinky? Who stinks!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with confusion, Xueyan and Lin Daiyu realized, after they came to their senses, that they were covered in dirt.
"ah!"

Lin Daiyu screamed loudly upon seeing Xueyan's appearance.

As Xueyan looked at Lin Daiyu, she exclaimed in shock, "Miss, did you go crawling through mud puddles?"

"Xueyan, shut up! Quickly, have someone bring in some water. I need to wash myself. This is so embarrassing!"

She rushed into the house, too ashamed to face anyone.

Just then, Goryeo maids entered the room carrying basins of water, and a commotion arose inside.

Humming a little tune, Zhang Cheng went to the backyard and asked Cuizhu, "Sister, have Mother and Brother and Sister-in-law finished practicing?"

"It's all done, I'm washing up now!"

Speaking to Zhang Cheng, Cuizhu asked, "Young Master, what are we practicing?"

"The Divine Illumination Scripture! A very 'ordinary' health-preserving exercise!"

Looking at the green bamboo, Zhang Cheng smiled.
"is it?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with suspicion, Cuizhu became surprised.
However, following behind Zhang Cheng, Jia Wei's lips twitched, because this was indeed very "ordinary". After all, his family's relatives could become fierce generals after training!
