The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

Chapter 749 The person Grand Tutor Shen shook?

Soon, the hawk carried Jia Daoshi's letter to the capital, bringing comfort to his princess.

"Master, a large number of martial arts practitioners have suddenly arrived outside, requesting to see you."

Just then, Jia Bing came over to report.

"Okay, take them to the reception room. I'll be there in a bit."

Jia Daoshi nodded, already guessing the purpose of these martial arts figures' visit.

He had previously issued an official document seeking talented individuals.

I didn't expect these people to arrive so quickly.

"Yes!"

Jia Bing respectfully accepted the order.

"Ah Li, come with me."

Jia Daoshi said that he had a pretty good idea of ​​what these people were here for.

"Ah."

Shen Li is the iron-fisted Prince Zhenbei in public, but in front of Jia Daoshi, she is definitely a gentle wife.

Meanwhile, a large crowd had already gathered outside the city lord's mansion.

Many of them were famous figures in the martial arts world.

Those elderly people who live in seclusion in the mountains and forests are accompanied by some of their direct disciples.

These elderly men were extraordinary at first glance, with a calm and composed demeanor, an air of otherworldly wisdom, and neither arrogant nor impatient, waiting for Jia Daoshi to appear.

The younger disciples, however, did not have such patience; one could say they were somewhat unable to calm down.

Upon seeing the two large white apes clad in armor at the city lord's mansion, they all gasped in surprise and began to whisper among themselves.

Such a large white ape can be considered a mythical beast.

It was truly an eye-opener for them to have these wild mountain overlords guarding the gate!

The giant white ape was nearly three meters tall, almost as tall as the city lord's mansion wall!

This kind of deterrent power is something that ordinary soldiers can't match!

Very impressive.

"The city lord of this Cliff City is indeed an extraordinary person, actually managing to have a wild and untamed white ape guard his gate!"

The young disciple looked on in amazement!

However, some of the younger disciples who knew Jia Daoshi somewhat laughed after hearing these discussions: "This is nothing. This Jia Daoshi is extremely powerful. He can be said to be the number one expert among the younger generation in the martial arts world. His achievements since his debut are too numerous to mention. Making two giant white apes open the door is just a normal performance!"

Since the Battle of Nanjing last year, Jia Daoshi has come into the public eye.

The record he has achieved along the way is enough to shake the entire martial arts world!

"Jatis is indeed extraordinary, but judging from your tone, it seems that getting the Great White Ape to open the door is nothing special. If you're so capable, why don't you subdue one yourself and broaden our horizons?"

One of the younger disciples chuckled and retorted.

Young people are full of vigor and it's normal for them to bicker.

"Huh? That's ridiculous. If I think this house isn't grand enough, am I supposed to build one myself?" The young disciple sneered, clearly annoyed by the argument.

"That's not the same thing I'm talking about!" the young disciple behind him said, looking unconvinced.

Young people are hot-tempered. After a few words, neither of them would back down, and they immediately prepared to start a fight.

However, before they could even roll up their sleeves, they were scolded by their master.

"Stop it all!"

"So rash and clumsy! Where is the demeanor of a master? Don't embarrass yourself here!"

These elders were highly respected, and after they reprimanded the young disciples, the disciples immediately became obedient.

"Esteemed seniors of the martial world! My patriarch invites you all in!"

At this moment, Jia Bing came out and greeted them.

……

The City Lord's Mansion, Reception Room.

The crowd outside came in one after another.

Of course, only the seasoned veterans had seats, while the younger disciples could only stand behind their masters.

Rouya directed a group of maids to serve tea, snacks, and fruits.

Since it is the city lord's mansion, the proper hospitality must be provided.

Not long after, Jia Daoshi and Shen Li arrived together.

"Greetings, esteemed seniors! Your presence is an honor to my humble abode, the City Lord's Mansion!"

I had met many of them before at the celebration banquet a while ago, so they weren't strangers.

Jia Daoshi was very polite to these old monsters.

"Jia Tisi, you're too kind. It's our great honor to have a cup of tea with you!"

These old men didn't dare to be pretentious; they stood up and politely clasped their hands in a salute.

Although they are young, their strength is undeniable.

"You're too kind! Please, esteemed seniors, have a seat."

Jia Daoshi said with a smile, and then he and Shen Li sat down on the main seats, one on each side.

"Esteemed seniors, you must have had a long journey to get here. Did you come after seeing the recruitment notice I sent out?"

Jia Daoshi got straight to the point.

Because these older people in front of him all seemed quite remarkable, and some of them had been living in seclusion for a long time, he felt somewhat uncertain.

Because, given their age, they probably wouldn't be thinking of coming to Cliff City to serve me, right?

“Jia Tisi, the reason we are here is very simple. The world is in constant flux, and we are here mainly to ask for your protection, Lord Tisi.”

Two elderly men with white hair exchanged a glance and stepped forward to speak.

Clearly, this was something they had already planned in advance.

They claimed to be seeking Jia Daoshi's protection, but in reality, they were seeking Jia Daoshi's allegiance and serving him.

To be honest, they're all quite old now.

Now that the world is on the verge of chaos, even if they don't think about themselves, they should think about their descendants.

At the very least, shouldn't we leave them some legacy?

When Emperor Taizu of the Great Jing Dynasty expanded the territory, he had a group of veterans by his side!

If others can do it, why can't they?

Jia Daoshi was somewhat bewildered.

He suddenly remembered that after Grand Tutor Shen returned a while ago, he had whispered to several old men in front of him, drinking and eating meat, and chatting happily.

Could it be that the old man had foreseen something, which is why he told these old men something?

The news of the Empress's death has now spread throughout the entire Great Jing, so these old men came here following the scent!

What does this mean?

Do you want to force yourself to rebel?

To be honest, he really hadn't thought of it that way!

Because of Ji Bingyan and the eldest prince Wu Ce, he had no reason to rebel!

Moreover, the Empress had previously said she would pass the throne to Ji Bingyan, so the Empress had been more than kind to her, hadn't she?

"Gentlemen, it's a small matter that you're seeking refuge with me, but the storm hasn't started yet, so please calm down and don't be too hasty."

Since Old Master Shen had gathered so many people for him, he couldn't refuse to give him face.

However, the matter of rebellion still needs to be considered carefully.

"Of course! Of course! The old men will follow Jatis's orders."

The group of elderly people clasped their hands in agreement, their faces beaming with smiles.

Jia Daoshi: "..."

Judging from the expressions on these old men's faces, they had misunderstood him.

However, Jia Daoshi was too lazy to explain so much at this moment.

The more you try to explain, the worse it gets!
