The fake prince was exposed at the beginning, and I took office as emperor on the spot

Chapter 113 Five Solutions
Although Ning Wuzhen didn't know much about wine, he could smell that what Gu Fangchen was drinking was definitely not ordinary.

The wine has a rich aroma and is full of spiritual energy. It makes you feel intoxicated when you smell it. It must be a top-quality wine.

Such wine can only come from the hands of famous winemakers.

With Gu Fangchen's playboy nature, he was able to make friends with many dignitaries by using his parents' face to gain favor.

Or rather, people from all walks of life were rushing to curry favor with him.

But the problem is, this is Jiange, not Huangtian City. How did Gu Fangchen get the energy to use his connections to get such high-quality wine?

I never expected that this time, it was actually my own son who did it!
Moreover, those close to him all knew clearly that Ning was giving Jun good wine.

Ning Wuzhen was not surprised at all that Ning Songjun could do such a thing.

——In Ning Songjun's eyes, Gu Fangchen is the idiot who always climbs up the roof and tears down the tiles, but in Ning Wuzhen's eyes, isn't Ning Songjun the same?
Since childhood, he has caused more trouble than Gu Fangchen, and it was Ning Caiyong who helped to clean up all of them.

Now, it has just changed from a naughty monkey to a seemingly mature naughty monkey.

Look, when he was a kid, he drank secretly, and when he grew up, he drank secretly with his nephew.

Gu Fangchen said confidently:

"If you don't believe me, the jar of wine is still with my uncle."

Ning Wuzhen's face darkened, he waved his hand and said:

"Forget it, forget it. Come here first and do the important things. We can talk about other things later."

Gu Fangchen said "oh" very obediently and walked forward.

He looked at Gu Fangchen:
"Your uncle said that this time, you were the one who controlled the puppet that defeated Xu Yuexiu and won the first place in swordsmanship?"

Gu Fangchen nodded:
"it's me."

He asked openly:

"Grandpa thinks that I shouldn't be this level given my stupidity and ignorance, and suspects that I used other means?"

This guy is really self-aware...

But if it was the Gu Fangchen of the past, the first moment she was suspected, she would fly into a rage, cry and make a fuss, and go to Ning Caiyong to make a scene and complain.

How could he say it so calmly?

It seems that it is indeed different from before...but whether it is really different or just pretending, we have to wait and see.

Ning Wuzhen looked at Gu Fangchen with a serious expression and said:

"I won't make it difficult for you. You just need to answer a few more questions, and I will give you the qualification to enter this forbidden area."

Gu Fangchen did not rush to agree, but blinked and asked:
"Grandpa, how many specific questions do you want to ask? Do you want the money if I answer them, or do I have to answer them correctly?"

"Can I enter the forbidden area just by being qualified? If so, can I enter this year or next year?"

"Once I enter the forbidden area, can I comprehend the sword's essence like everyone else? Or can I only go in and take a look before leaving?"

"..."

Ning Wuzhen twitched the corner of her mouth. This kid's increased cunning didn't seem like a good thing. She had blocked all of this chatter...

Pavilion Master Ning said unhappily:

"Three questions. If you answer them, I'll kick you in right away. You can stay in there as long as you want. I don't care what you do in there."

You said this yourself!
Gu Fangchen curled his lips, his face still innocent, and spread his hands:
"I'm just asking casually, don't worry, old man..."

He patted his chest:

"Just three questions. Please tell me everything I know!"

You have compressed it down to just three questions, and you still want to tell me everything you know!

The Taoist from the southwest has always had a bad temper, and Ning Wuzhen's years of Qi cultivation skills were almost ruined.

Ning Wuzhen sighed inwardly and calmed down her mood that was almost about to make her laugh.

Forget it, at least this way, even though I haven't started asking, I already know that my grandson's personality has indeed changed dramatically.

But this kid's scheming is so unfathomable... He hid his abilities so well in the past that all of them were kept in the dark.

Ning Wuzhen thought for a moment and asked:
"First question, if Xu Yuexiu had been braver, given up dodging, and immediately used the 'Earth-Chopping Star Flying' move, rotating the hilt a third of a turn, pointing the blade towards you, and then using the hilt to strike your wrist, what would you have done?"

This was the solution that Xu Yuexiu had not been able to come up with at the time because she was unable to react to the situation.

Since the reaction time is not enough to directly block the sword blade, just turn a small circle and use the handle of the sword to intercept the wrist halfway.

Gu Fangchen immediately said with a smile:

"Simple. Since she has retracted the blade, my lower body is no longer a threat. I will simply step on her toes."

Step on toes?!
Ning Wuzhen: “…”

He was about to scold that life and death were not to be taken lightly.

But after a pause and careful consideration, it might be a good idea.

The idea is to attack the opponent's lower body parts, causing severe pain or loss of balance. This can be done on the toes, but other parts of the body can also be used.

But at this point, it no longer seemed like practicing sword moves... it was completely a fight for life and death.

Ning Wuzhen thought back to her previous thoughts and felt a little ashamed.

Isn't this the right response between life and death?
However, this deviated from his original intention. He originally wanted to see Gu Fangchen's understanding of the Jiange swordsmanship.

Although Gu Fangchen's response was reasonable, it was outside the scope of swordsmanship.

Ning Wuzhen coughed dryly, glanced at him, and said:
"I'm asking how to counter it if you use swordsmanship."

Gu Fangchen chuckled and said:
"Is this the second question?"

Ning Wuzhen had no expression on her face: "...never mind."

After all, it was he who did not set the conditions clearly, so he could only be fooled by this kid when asked this question.

What a loophole!
Gu Fangchen touched his chin, pondered for a moment, and did not answer immediately.

Ning Wuzhen heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing this. He almost thought that this kid could tell him how to deal with it without any hesitation.

Finally, I'm still a normal person...

Just as he was thinking this, Gu Fangchen raised his head and said:
"If it's swordplay, I have five solutions..."

Ning Wuzhen: “?”

It’s not that you can’t figure it out, but there are too many solutions?
In just a short moment, he was able to come up with five solutions. Even Ning Songjun had never achieved such an accomplishment!

Could it be that this kid has started talking nonsense?
In Ning Wuzhen's suspicious eyes, Gu Fangchen talked freely:

"If you're using the basic Sword Pavilion swordsmanship to counter it, there are two solutions: 'Cold Firefly Piercing the Sleeves' and 'Guarding Fire Illuminating the Ice'..."

The so-called "Basic Swordsmanship" of Jiange is actually not basic at all.

This is a set of top-notch sword techniques that includes 72 sword moves. If you can master all of them, you will be qualified to advance to the fifth level.

Very practical and profound.

"As for other sword techniques, I recommend the 21st style of the Wind-Severing Sword, which the bandits at the Chimayi Station are proficient in, or the Six-Character Formula of the Tiewa Temple. As for the Thirteen Swords of the Embers' Clothes of the Huoliao Sect, I would consider them the worst option..."

Ning Wuzhen listened in amazement, and after careful consideration, she felt that each one was feasible and each one was clever.

But his expression became more and more solemn, and he became more and more frightened.

Although it is just a few moves, the understanding behind it cannot be expressed simply by knowing the basics.

It seemed as if his grandson had emptied out all the wealth of the four famous sword sects in the southwest!
Gu Fangchen became more and more excited as he spoke, and he felt a bit nostalgic about staying up late to make strategy guides and record videos.

After explaining the five solutions one by one, he smacked his lips, still feeling unsatisfied.

joke!

There is no need for actual combat at the moment, and if he can't even come up with five solutions on paper, then there is no point in being a top strategy guide!
Gu Fangchen looked at Ning Wuzhen, who was in shock, raised his eyebrows and said:

"Grandpa, what do you think of my five solutions?"

Ning Wuzhen was silent for a while and said:

"Very good. Even if he is your uncle, I am afraid he is not as good as you."

He looked at Gu Fangchen deeply:

"Especially, he knows everything about other sects."

Gu Fangchen shrugged and grinned:

"If I don't know them well, how can I help Jian Ge and raze them all to the ground?"

Ning Wuzhen looked at him, suddenly smiled, and patted his shoulder:

"You are more cruel than your uncle."

He changed the subject and said in a deep voice:
"Gu Yuye has raised you for nineteen years after all. Since you already knew the truth and knew that you were just a substitute to prevent disaster, then sooner or later, you two will completely fall out with each other."

"Your mother has a soft temper. She has been married to Gu Yuye for many years, so she must feel sorry for him."

"When the time comes, how will you deal with Gu Yuye?"

Gu Fangchen looked at him:

"Is this the third question?"

Ning Wuzhen nodded: "Yes."

"My answer is—"

Gu Fangchen raised his head and said coldly:

"Kill him!"
