Longevity begins with an old woman

Chapter 253

"This...good!"

Zhao Jingrou didn't react too much to Xu Mu's excessive demands, and nodded in agreement after a little hesitation.

She thought that Xu Mu wanted to use Zhao Yan's background so that he could be justified, otherwise even if she came forward, it would be somewhat inappropriate.

It's just that Yan'er has been wronged, and she will be widowed for several years.

She didn't believe that Xu Mu was still so powerful at his age.

But it's not all bad. With this level of identity, Yan'er can easily control the family. If she can win Xu Mu's favor, get resource support, and advance to build a foundation, then it would be great.

"I don't like to force people. If she doesn't want to, fellow Taoist can help me change one." Xu Mu said.

His idea was similar to what Zhao Jingrou guessed, he really wanted to use the name of Zhao Yan's direct line to control Zhao more conveniently.

As for the body, he can hit twenty!

After negotiating, the two chatted for a long time. From Zhao Jingrou, Xu Mu learned more detailed information about the cultivation circle in Chizhou Prefecture, and also had a certain understanding of the situation of the Dayuan Dynasty.

After knowing that Xu Mu is an alchemist, Zhao Jingrou was even more pleasantly surprised, but considering Xu Mu's age, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

But thinking that if Xu Mu wasn't too old, he wouldn't agree to her, he felt a little better.

In the following days, while the Zhao family was preparing for the wedding, Zhao Jingrou took Xu Mu to visit various forces and families in Chizhou Prefecture, especially the people from the Zhangxian Division.

Without Zhang Xiansi's approval, it would be difficult for him to sit in the position of Supreme Elder.

Fortunately, Zhang Xiansi is very loose in this regard, as long as the spirit stone is sent to you, he will naturally not meddle in other matters.

This is also Xu Mu's first contact with the behemoth Zhangxiansi.

Judging by Zhang Xiansi's style, although it is a bit rotten, it has not rotted to the bone. Maybe you can consider handing over the corpses of those robbery repairs in exchange for contribution points.

The dozen or so robbers he killed were all well-known thieves in the Zhangxian Division, and as long as they were called up, they could get a lot of contribution points.

These contribution values ​​are similar to those of sects. Not only can they be directly exchanged for various treasures and exercises, but they can also be exchanged for knight titles.

This title is very useful, the most important of which is to establish a family and sect, without the title, it is impossible to establish a family and sect.

According to different titles, the size and number of sects are also limited.

The titles are ranked according to the sons of princes and marquises. A family like the Zhao family must have a title of viscount.

Fortunately, this title can be inherited, otherwise it would be difficult for many families to get together.

However, there are also restrictions. On the one hand, only people from the same family can inherit it. On the other hand, this title can only last for a hundred years. After a hundred years, it must be exchanged again. If it is not exchanged, it will be downgraded.

For example, the viscount of the Zhao family will become a baron, and in a hundred years he will be reduced to a commoner.

This regulation also forces all families and sects to contribute to the Dayuan Dynasty every day, otherwise they can only become black households like Shengu Valley, and Zhang Xiansi can destroy them at any time as long as they want.

The Jiexiu killed by Xu Mu could at least be exchanged for two or three titles of earls. If it works, it is not impossible to change to a marquis.

"Let's bear with it for the time being! Anyway, those corpses won't be destroyed for a while!"

After all, it was a newcomer, so Xu Mu still felt that it would not be too late to take another look to make sure everything was safe.

In the blink of an eye, the day of the wedding came, and all the big and small families in Chizhou Mansion came to congratulate, even the Zhangxian Division of Chizhou Mansion gave a gift.

Although in private, everyone's brains are almost blown out, but after all, they are all civilized people, and they still have to do superficial skills.

The wedding went smoothly. For Xu Mu, who has the identity of an alchemist and has a record of killing the owner of the God Gu Valley, as long as he is not stupid, no one will make trouble openly.

And Xu Mu didn't take such a person seriously. How could he care about a group of foundation-building families as a great cultivator with the peak combat power of the golden core. Taking charge of the Zhao family was just a transition for him.

When the guests were gone, Xu Mu returned to the bridal chamber, where Zhao Yan was sitting there pretty.

Red lips, white as jade, like a stroke of ink on rice paper.

"senior!"

Zhao Yan got up respectfully and wanted to offer her some tea.

Although the two are married, anyone with a discerning eye knows that she is just a pendant.

Although the heart is sad, there is nothing to do, this is the fate of the children of the aristocratic family.

If she is not willing, Zhao Jingrou will not force her. There are people in the family who are willing to marry Xu Mu, but she will definitely exclude her completely in the future. Not to mention improving her cultivation level, whether she can keep her current cultivation level is a problem.

If this opportunity is seized by other tribesmen, their team will never be able to rise again.

The reason why she was attacked this time was revealed by people in the family, and it was originally to attack their branch.

It is one of the reasons for the decline of all families to be an expert in internal fighting and an amateur in external fighting.

If she couldn't curry favor with Xu Mu, Zhao Jingrou would definitely not help her with the current situation of the Zhao family, because the Zhao family couldn't stand it anymore.

But now, with her promise to marry Xu Mu, those clansmen who colluded with outsiders to harm them have disappeared without a sound.

As for where he went, he didn't have to guess.

So out of emotion and reason, she must take good care of Xu Mu and hold this thigh tightly so that no accidents will happen.

This is also what Zhao Jingrou asked many times.

Facing Xu Mu, Zhao Yan is not like a wife, but more like a personal maid.

"Don't worry too much!" Xu Mu waved his hand, preventing Zhao Yan from fetching water to wash his feet.

"Come up, get some rest earlier!" Xu Mu said.

"what?"

Zhao Yan's face changed between white and red, and her body trembled slightly.

Didn't the ancestors say that there would be no such thing?

There shouldn't be any quirks in this old thing, right?
Although he resisted very much in his heart, he had to obey. He could only grit his teeth and hold on. He only hoped that Xu Mu would not go too far.

Seeing Zhao Yan's eyes closed and her aggrieved appearance, Xu Mu couldn't help laughing, and the room darkened with a wave of her hand.

Zhao Jingrou, who was watching all this from afar, sighed deeply.

Yan'er, I have wronged you!
……

In the room, Zhao Yan's subsequent humiliation did not appear.

Did she know that Xu Mu was an alchemist!

After a long time, the clouds cleared and the fog dispersed, and fell asleep in exhaustion.

……

[Congratulations to the host for the achievement]

[Luck value: It can be used to improve skill proficiency, but cannot directly improve cultivation! 】
