Zhu Tian: Starting from the World of Zongwu

He didn't like any of the suitable girls introduced by his family and insisted on finding true love.

The result is what happened today. I found true love, but was slapped in the face by true love.

For Song Xuan, who was just looking for fun, this was a good thing.

At least it can make Xiaoliu, who is obsessed with love, see the reality.

If you think you have met true love without any ability, good looks, identity or status, then you can be 100% sure that the true love you like will never like you.

Xiaoliu is good-looking, but his other qualities were not shown at all because he was lying too flat, which was also the main reason for Sun Qiaoqiao's misjudgment.

Lu Xiaoliu said sullenly, "I thought she liked me as a person and nothing else, but unexpectedly, when she met someone she thought had better conditions, she immediately drew a line between us.

The decisiveness made me feel very uncomfortable for a while."

Song Xuan sneered: "Don't think I don't know what you are thinking. To put it bluntly, you have not told her your true situation because you want to test her.

What you desire is that the girl is attracted by your personal charm, not by the family power behind you.

You think that if feelings are mixed with other things, then it is not true love, right?

But Lu Xiaoliu, you're already in your twenties, can you please stop being so childish? In this day and age, can you expect a girl to be completely devoted to you just by relying on your looks?

Even I, Brother Xuan, am not sure about this, but you, Lu Xiaoliu, really dare to say it.

You're using this to test a girl like me. After all, she's from an official family, not an ignorant girl. How could she possibly withstand this kind of test?"

Lu Xiaoliu hummed in frustration, "It's a rare time for me to show my true feelings, but this is the result. I can't accept it."

"So you came to me to ask for power, ready to turn on the Dragon King's crooked mouth mode, right?"

"Ah?" Lu Xiaoliu scratched his head in confusion.

What does the Dragon King crooked mouth mode mean?

Victoria Song was peeling an apple and explained with a smile: "It means pretending to be cool and then getting slapped in the face!"

"Oh!"

Lu Xiaoliu hummed honestly, "Brother-in-law, you know that although I have been beaten by my elder sister many times since I was a child, I have never suffered such anger.

I won't get this back. I can't swallow this anger, and I can't think straight!"

Click!

Song Qian broke the peeled apple into two pieces, handed a piece to Song Xuan, and then ate the fruit with a crunching sound while watching the fun.

Lu Xiaoliu stared at Victoria Song and grinned, "Sister Victoria~"

Victoria Song curled her lips and said, "Don't ask, a licking dog doesn't deserve to eat the apple I peeled!"

Lu Xiaoliu was used to being scolded by Song Qian from time to time, but he didn't care. Instead, he looked at Song Xuan expectantly again.

"Brother-in-law..."

Song Xuan waved his hand and said seriously, "In the workplace, it's called by position!"

Lu Xiaoliu was startled and immediately became serious.

He knew Song Xuan. Brother Xuan suddenly became serious, which meant that he was ready to take his matter seriously.

He stood up straight and said seriously, "Commander-in-Chief, what do you think of my affairs?"

"It's a good thing to want to make progress!" Song Xuan patted his shoulder, "but the organizational process still needs to be followed."

"Go to the Inspection Office to find Uncle Zhao and ask him to arrange a suitable promotion assessment for you as soon as possible, and strive to become a second-class Xuanyi Guard within the next two days.

Without this identity, you can't hold any official position within the Xuanyi Guard!"

The third-class Xuanyiwei are not considered formal members in the Xuanyiwei system. At best, they are just non-staff members wearing a disguise.

It is to find a place for the unpopular or incompetent sons of noble families to retire, so that they don't spend their days doing nothing and causing trouble.

In this situation, do you want to talk about true love with the daughter of an official family?

People will play with you for real right on the spot!

"Okay!" Lu Xiaoliu didn't waste any words and turned to leave.

"and many more!"

Song Xuan stopped him and said, "Tell me first, if you were in power, what would you do?"

"Of course, I'll go out and get revenge in fine clothes and on horseback. I'll gather my troops and surround the Ping'an County Government Office first. I want to let Sun Qiaoqiao know just how blind she is!"

Song Xuan rubbed his forehead. "Can you be more professional? To deal with a small county magistrate, do you need my Xuanyi Guard to surround the county government office? When did my Xuanyi Guard become so low-class?"

Lu Xiaoliu paused. "I've been slacking off for too long, and I really don't know much about this. Brother Xuan, what do you think I should do?"

Song Qian then said, "How can dealing with a small county magistrate be compared to your ability, Master Lu?

Be direct and lead the troops to surround the residence of the Minister of Personnel!

Every member of the Zhang family who comes out will be caught one by one.

Remember, don't rush in directly, simmer over low heat and catch them one by one, and catch whoever comes out.

By the way, remember to bring your little Bailian to the outside of the Zhang family residence and let her open her eyes and watch carefully!

It's a rare opportunity for the Dragon King to twist his lips, so either don't do it, or if you do, do it to death!"

Chapter 496 How could I give birth to such a confused daughter like you!

When it comes to showing off, the Song Xuan siblings are quite experienced.

Victoria Song has no interest in Xiaoliu, but after all, they are childhood friends. It's rare that a friend wants to show off, so Victoria Song naturally doesn't mind helping him.

Lu Xiaoliu looked at Song Xuan with a somewhat inquiring look, "Brother-in-law, is this really the case?"

Song Xuan nodded: "Just do as your sister Qian says. She is our biggest supporter now!"

"Hey, that's natural!"

Victoria Song proudly put one hand on her waist and said, "Grandmaster Wuque, do you think I'm kidding you?"

Lu Xiao?

I was simply jealous and wanted to vent my anger. Surrounding the residence of a high-ranking official like the Minister of Rites would have shaken the government and the country, wouldn't it? "

Song Xuan nodded, "What we want is a shock wave in the government and the country!"

Lu Xiaoliu didn't know much about officialdom, but he was not stupid. Now that the love brain mode disappeared, his smart IQ once again took over his brain.

"Brother-in-law, are you planning to mess with the Zhang family?"

He frowned slightly, "The Zhang family is not an ordinary powerful family. They have stood for three hundred years without falling. If you want to take action against them, there must be a suitable reason, right?

I can't just go and arrest someone just for fighting over a woman, right?"

"Why not?" Song Xuan asked back, and said with a smile: "You are a young man, and it is understandable that young people would be a little impulsive for the sake of their beloved.

Don't worry, after you are promoted to Xuanyiwei, I will temporarily appoint you as the Imperial Capital Inspector of Xuanyiwei. This is a temporary position and you don't need to go through the internal process to be promoted step by step.

After you take office, do as your sister Qian said. Surround the Zhang Mansion and arrest anyone who dares to leave. Don't be afraid of offending anyone. No one's pleas will be of any use. Just make this a big deal!"

Lu Xiaoliu said excitedly: "Brother-in-law, this is a slap in the face of the entire court. If you really make up your mind, then I will not be polite!"

"So what if I slapped the faces of the entire court?"

Song Xuan's face turned slightly cold, "Don't forget who you are, you are the eldest son of the Lu family, and my brother-in-law!

The fact that you don’t use your privileges to bully others shows that you have good character, but that doesn’t mean that anyone can bully you and act arrogantly!

If you compete with others for the most beautiful woman in a brothel, I won't care if you get wronged.

But since you are really sincere in getting along with the girl, and the Zhang family knows your identity, yet still dares to do this so blatantly, it is a slap in the face of me, Song Xuan, and my Xuanyi Guard!

Since they provoked us first, we can't let this matter go unless we pay a sufficient price!"

.....

Ping'an County Government Office, backyard.

As the sky darkened, the county magistrate, Sun Jingzhong, was busy sorting out official business in his study.

He was transferred to Ping'an County as magistrate just a few years ago. Although he was transferred from the governor of Qinzhou to the magistrate of a county outside the imperial capital, he was actually promoted.

Even the county magistrate outside the imperial capital has more power than an ordinary prefect.

Being a county magistrate under the emperor means one has one foot halfway into the real power class of the Great Zhou Dynasty. As long as one performs well in the next few years, the speed of promotion will definitely be beyond imagination.

"Daddy, can I come in?"

Outside the door, his daughter's voice came. Sun Jingzhong put down the pen in his hand and said with a smile: "Come in!"

Looking at his daughter who was walking in and out with an increasingly outstanding demeanor, Sun Jingzhong asked, "I heard that you and Xiaoliu went out of town for a trip today?

I have met Xiaoliu several times. He is a very nice person and worthy of trust. He has also helped me several times. Although the reputation of the Xuanyi Guard is not very good in the officialdom, since you and him are in love with each other, I will not stop you.

The two of you are of the right age. Next time you meet, you can mention it to him briefly and find time for the two families to meet and finalize the marriage."

Sun Qiaoqiao lowered her head, looking a little unhappy.

"Why, did you run into any trouble outside today?"

Sun Qiaoqiao hummed, hesitated for a moment, and said sullenly, "Dad, Xiaoliu and I have split up!"

"What's going on?" Sun Jingzhong had a bad feeling in his heart. "Tell me everything that happened today!"

Sun Qiaoqiao didn't dare to hide it and immediately told about the dispute she had with Lu Xiaoliu outside the city today.

After listening to every word, Sun Jingzhong slammed the table angrily.

"Confused! Confused!"

"How could I have given birth to such a foolish daughter like you!"

"Sun Qiaoqiao, the greatest disaster for a person is a lack of self-awareness!"

"Who is the son of the Minister of Personnel? He is the legitimate son of the Zhang family in the imperial capital. The Zhang family in the imperial capital is a well-known and evergreen family in the officialdom!

Your father has heard of it in Qinzhou!

Why would such a wealthy family be interested in a mere county magistrate's daughter like you?!"

Sun Qiaoqiao's face looked a little grim, and she whispered, "Maybe, maybe it's because my daughter is beautiful?"

"You are truly ridiculously stupid!" Sun Jingzhong was furious. "Before in Qinzhou, you were the daughter of the county governor, and everyone praised you like a fairy from heaven.

What's going on? Have you lost your way to flattery and can't even tell your own worth? "

He pointed outside the door and shouted, "Open your eyes and look carefully. Where is this?"

"This is the imperial capital! The central hub of the entire Great Zhou, a place where talented people gather. Here, there are women who are more outstanding than you everywhere!

What kind of status does the young master of the Zhang family have? What kind of women has he not seen? How could he be interested in you, the daughter of an official from the countryside?

They're just using you as a joke, do you really think someone like us can marry into a top-tier, powerful family?"

"Isn't this also for you, Daddy?"

Sun Qiaoqiao was still a little unconvinced, "Your entire future lies in the Ministry of Personnel. Seeing you working day and night these days, I want to share your worries. If I can marry into the Zhang family, your future career will be easier, right?

Even if you can't marry her, there's no harm in getting to know her more and building a good relationship, right?

Who would have thought that I would be stopped by Xiao Liu just after leaving the city with Master Zhang today.

I was still hesitating about how to choose between Xiaoliu and Master Zhang, but Xiaoliu embarrassed me in front of so many people. I had no choice but to draw a clear line between us! "

Sun Jingzhong was so angry that his head was spinning. "My father got promoted through his own abilities and political achievements. Why would you need to curry favor with the people in the Ministry of Personnel? I'd rather not be an official than have people point at my back and call me, Sun Jingzhong, a sellout!"

After scolding him, he forced himself to calm down.

"Qiaoqiao, your mother passed away early, and your father was afraid that you would be bullied, so he never remarried."

"As a father, I do have some ambitions. I want to go further in officialdom and leave my name in history, but these are nothing compared to you!

As a father, I don’t want anything else but that you can marry into a good family and live a stable life in the future.

Xiaoliu doesn't have any big ambitions, but he is a stable kid!

The third-class Xuanyiwei has a good monthly salary and does not have to fight all day long. With the Xuanyiwei Yamen as a backer, no one dares to provoke them.

Even if one day Dad stands on the wrong side in officialdom and offends someone, you don’t have to worry about being implicated.

You may not become rich if you marry him, but at least you can live a stable and worry-free life for the rest of your life!"
