It was during this time that a letter arrived from the Li Yang Dynasty for Zhao Fengya, informing her of her father's passing.

Zhao Fengya cried so hard that day that Jiang Xuan almost thought she might cry herself to death.

Fortunately, we made it through.

However, Zhao Fengya, who wanted to return to Tai'an City, was persuaded to come back by Jiang Xuan.

Actually, it wasn't entirely his fault; mainly, Zhao Zhuan also expressed in the letter that he didn't want her to go back.

He even said that there was no need to observe mourning for the old emperor, and that he hoped Zhao Fengya could marry Jiang Xuan as soon as possible.

Princess Suizhu initially didn't believe Zhao Zhuan's series of actions, but later she came to understand.

She gave a bitter smile and understood everything.

Knowing that she is now a discarded pawn, she might still be of some use if she were to get married.

But what if... we can't?

Chapter 167 The King of Chu Begins His Lesson, the Wedding is Underway

Jiang Xuan could naturally see Zhao Fengya's thoughts, but in the current situation, he really didn't know whether he should marry Princess Suizhu.

However, according to Xu Weixiong, that was the woman he should have married.

After all, during this period, Northern Liang had already begun to send signals to the Li Yang Dynasty.

The other party's meaning was clear: they wanted a reconciliation.

If Li Yang and Bei Liang were to cooperate, and their battle lines were stretched out, it would indeed be somewhat disadvantageous for the already large-scale Chu state.

Although he had the original 300,000 from the Prince of Jing'an, 150,000 from the Prince of Yanci, and 180,000 from the Prince of Guangling.

In addition, there were nearly 100,000 troops under Cao Changqing's command in the former Great Chu.

It appears to have a force of 700,000, including hundreds of thousands of elite troops.

But how many of the Northern Liang's iron cavalry over the years haven't been elite?

Currently, Beiliang has 300,000 cavalry on the surface, but the entire Beiliang is highly capable of responding to any call. If war were to break out again, Xu Xiao would surely be able to muster no less than 400,000, or even 500,000 troops.

If that's the case, then Northern Liang alone would be enough to fight against them.

What about Li Yang?

The Imperial Guard stationed in Tai'an City, which is far from Yang, numbers more than 250,000.

There were also Zhao Sui, the King of Jiaodong; Zhao Ying, the King of Huainan; and Zhao Ao, the King of Langya, each of whom commanded over 100,000 troops.

Moreover, Liyang still controls most of the territory. If the Liyang Dynasty were to forcibly conscript soldiers, it would be no problem to raise three to five hundred thousand.

If that's the case, then the pressure on them would be too great.

After all, the problem with the Great Chu was that it lacked sufficient foundation.

Even though Western Chu was once the largest country, it valued literature over military affairs, and all its resources had been plundered by Northern Liang and Li Yang.

The previous events were entirely due to Jiang Xuan's single-handed decapitation operation, which disrupted the enemy's various plans.

But after so much time, I'm afraid everyone is already on guard.

It will probably be difficult to use Jiang Xuan to behead him again.

If Jiang Xuan knew that Xu Weixiong thought this way about him, he would definitely show him just how strong he really is.

However, after thinking about it, he directly sent messages to everyone he had ambiguous relationships with.

That is, getting married.

However, before he could finish writing the letter, Xu Weixiong discovered it and almost went berserk.

After all, although everyone knew about these things before, they all tacitly kept quiet about them.

What now?

Because of his wedding, everyone was in a bad mood, so it was like setting off firecrackers. In an instant, Jiang Xuan became universally hated throughout Xiangfan City.

Whether it was Xu Weixiong, Wang Chudong, or Yu Youwei, none of them would let him into the house.

I had originally thought Shu Xiu would come, but how could Xu Weixiong leave any loopholes?

She immediately called the other person away, and now Shu Xiu is her maid, but she doesn't need to do anything.

The only task is to avoid Jiang Xuan.

Jiang Xuan was powerless to do anything about the situation, but fortunately, Zhao Fengya was not yet his woman.

However, since the wedding date was set, Jiang Xuan has not been able to see Zhao Fengya anymore.

According to Xu Weixiong, one cannot see the bride before the wedding.

Jiang Xuan almost lost his temper. After all, how could someone not be allowed to see someone half a month in advance?

During these two weeks, Jiang Xuan neither went on missions nor touched any women, effectively becoming a completely abstinent cultivator.

However, his days were not lonely, since he had nothing better to do, so he started a course.

The classes were held in Xiangfan City, seven days a week. Literature was taught on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, martial arts on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, and the last day was for consolidation and review.

Anyone, regardless of their background, even ordinary people, can come and attend the classes.

At first, there were only a few thousand people, and they could still participate in the martial arts training grounds in Xiangfan City.

But then the number increased, and in less than three days it had already exceeded 10,000.

Then Jiang Xuan chose a huge open space outside Xiangfan City, large enough to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people, and began a new round of lectures.

Jiang Xuan's classes were always packed with students, whether they were scholars or martial artists, all of whom were completely absorbed and forgot to eat or sleep. Moreover, no one missed a single class.

After all, when Jiang Xuan lectures, he sometimes uses literature to explain martial arts, or vice versa, which can be very beneficial to anyone.

On the fifth day, a scholar, in the guise of a Confucian, broke through to the Celestial Realm.

On the eleventh day, an illiterate old farmer, who had no martial arts skills, stepped into the first-grade Vajra Realm.

Furthermore, he quickly comprehended the power of heaven and earth, and directly entered the celestial phenomena with the Vajra Realm.

He also created the Old Farmer's Skill, which made him famous for a time.

In just the past two weeks, many people have made further breakthroughs.

Even those who didn't achieve a breakthrough still gained a lot of insights.

On the last day, Jiang Xuan still sat in the void, his voice loud and clear, reaching everyone's ears.

Most of them looked at Jiang Xuan with gratitude in their eyes.

Some people were even moved to tears, kneeling and kowtowing.

In short, Xu Weixiong knew that after this incident, no one in the world would dare to question Jiang Xuan anymore.

Whether in literature or martial arts.

According to Xu Weixiong's incomplete statistics, at least 300,000 people from Xiangfan City attended his lectures in just half a month.

During this period, the economy of Xiangfan City can be described as developing rapidly.

It even reached a saturation point.

Although a lot of things did happen because of the large number of people, Xu Weixiong was prepared.

In addition, the students who were attending the lectures were all unwilling to allow anyone else to harm Jiang Xuan's city.

Because in their eyes, Jiang Xuan is a god!

Scholars admired Jiang Xuan, warriors believed in him, and ordinary people even worshipped him as a god.

So who dares to say Jiang Xuan is bad?

Who dares to cause trouble in Xiangfan?

They didn't even need the guards of Xiangfan City; their self-organized guard team had already taken care of these matters.

However, Jiang Xuan was afraid that these people would take things too seriously and make a big fuss.

They set up a supervisory agency in advance, which patrolled the entire city of Xiangfan. If there were any disputes, the supervisory agency could be asked to resolve them.

In short, Jiang Xuan resolved these matters.

Then finally, my wedding day arrived.

To save face for the Li Yang royal family, only one person attended the wedding.

As for whether or not she is the matriarch, does it matter to others?

The only person I need to care about is Xu Weixiong, right?

However, just as Jiang Xuan was in a daze, not knowing how he got married and was wearing a suit, there was a knock on his bedroom door.

Then Xu Weixiong and her group, all beautiful and charming, walked in.

Chapter 168 A line of brides in red robes, welcoming the wedding procession.

Xu Weixiong was the first to walk in. Although she was not wearing a phoenix coronet and embroidered robe, she was wearing a long red robe.

It should be noted that Xu Weixiong usually only wore clothes in two colors: white and black.

The white one was worn at the Shangyin Academy, while the black one was worn in Xiangfan City.

After all, although she was quite famous, she was still too young. Sometimes she had to pretend to be calm and ruthless in order to keep others in check.

But today, she wore a color she never wears before.

Looking at the bright red robe in front of her, and the gold hairpin and earrings that Jiang Xuan had bought for her just a few days ago.

At this moment, Xu Weixiong truly possessed a unique beauty, a beauty tinged with a touch of heroism and a hint of shyness.

This is quite unusual for Xu Weixiong.

Upon seeing Xu Weixiong appear, Jiang Xuan stopped tidying his clothes.

He reached out his hand, intending to embrace the beauty in front of him.

However, Xu Weixiong reached out her hand at this moment, still holding the long sword given to her by Jiang Xuan, and pressed it directly against his chest.
