Chapter 26: Let me go and I'll have no wife! Down

  "Ice, where is Tian Gong Camp? I've never heard of it!""Haven't you heard of Tian Gong Camp?" "Yeah! I didn't attend a military academy or the Imperial Bead Academy, so I wouldn't know." "Tian Gong Camp is a legend of our Tian Gong Empire. We weren't originally called the Tian Gong Empire; the country's name was changed because of this Tian Gong Camp." "Is it that powerful? Is Tian Gong Camp even more formidable than my old man?"

  "I don't know then, the Tian Gong Camp is named as a camp, but I've heard that they are actually just a few people, all of whom are extremely famous divine archers who only listen to the current emperor's mobilization. In several critical moments of danger for our country, it was they who took action, assassinating key enemy military personnel and turning the tide of battle. Their individual strength may not be the strongest, but they are absolutely super-strong assassins that even Tian Zhu masters fear. When the Kresi Empire was at its most powerful, there were seven Tian Zhu masters, while our country only had General Zhou. At that time, we were already facing the danger of the Heavenly Kingdom, and the Kresi army was pressing in on us, but overnight, four of the seven Tian Zhu masters with the highest cultivation were killed by strong bows, causing panic among the Kresi military and royal family, forcing them to retreat. For 16 years, they have not regained their former glory. And that time, it was our predecessors from the Tian Gong Camp who took action to save the situation. If we can pass the assessment and truly join the Tian Gong Camp, it will be a lifelong honor."

  "Wow, so powerful? I want to see for myself."

  Ten days later. Tian City.

  After ten days of rushing, Zhou Weiqing and Shangguan Xue'er returned to the imperial capital once again.

  "Ice Girl, where do we need to go to find this Tian Gong Camp? Before I left, Father didn't tell me anything," Zhou Weiqing asked while looking around.

  The two of them were both wearing simple clothes at this time. Zhou Weiqing was still okay, his silly appearance made him unnoticeable in the crowd, but Shangguan Fei'er was born with a beautiful face and figure, even if she wore rough hemp clothing, it couldn't hide her stunning beauty, turning heads 100%. It wasn't until Zhou Weiqing quickly put on that big wind hat to cover some of it up that things got a bit better. Shangguan Fei'er said: "Marshal Zhou gave me a letter and told me to go back to Tian Gong City to open it." Zhou Weiqing curiously asked: "Then let's take a look." By the way, later are you going home with me or am I going to the capital with you?

  Shangguan Bing'er had just pulled out a letter from her bosom, and upon hearing his words, her pretty face suddenly turned red. "Xiao Pang, let's forget it for now, we're still young, and even if we wait until our training in the Tian Gong Camp is over, it won't be too late."

  On the way back, she finally fully accepted Zhou Weiqing, but our Little Fatty Zhou felt that he was even more tragic. In the past, Shangguan Fei'er always had a cold face towards him, at least he wouldn't have any ideas. But now that the two of them had established their relationship, with his habit of being physically affectionate, how could he not hope to be more intimate with Shangguan Fei'er? However, Shangguan Fei'er refused to be too intimate with him because of his age, at most just holding hands, occasionally hugging, making Zhou Weiqing feel itchy and helpless.

  Zhou Weiqing's gaze swept over her with a few degrees of heat, muttering to himself "Small? Doesn't feel like it!!! The proportions are just right. 33 inches around the bust, size C cup." And she's only sixteen years old, with unlimited potential for development." "Zhou, Xiao Pang." Shangguan Yan'er suddenly grabbed his ear and leaned in close, her breath smelling sweet as she whispered in his ear, "What did you just say?"

  "Huh? What's going on?! I'm saying, we're not that young anymore. According to the Empire's law, you can get married at 16. You've already reached marriageable age! Although I'm still a bit young, I developed early!"

  Shangguan Bing'er's face turned red, "Early development is not good either. Xiao Pang, really, I'm not ready yet. Since childhood, my mother and I have been dependent on each other, and her temper isn't very good either. Let's wait two more years, okay?" Zhou Weiqing helplessly shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, let's listen to the wife's orders."

  Shangguan Bing'er gave him a cold glance, but seeing that he was listening to her so attentively, she felt great and didn't mind his verbal advantage. She opened the envelope in her hand and took out a piece of paper with only one line written on it: "Go to the first floor of Emperor Hotel, find a drunkard named Luo Ke Di, tell him: I'm looking for Liu Wu Shuang Ren Zu's Liu. He will take you to receive the assessment at Tian Ji 5th Camp."

  Shangguan Bing'er also showed the words on the note to Zhou Weiqing. The Emperor Hotel in Tian Gong City could be considered a landmark building, with six floors and an extremely large scale. What was most peculiar was that this large hotel simultaneously accommodated guests of various levels, with higher floors corresponding to higher consumption. As locals of Tian Gong City, they naturally knew where it was.

  Shangguan Bing'er said: "Then let's go home and see Mother first, tomorrow at noon, meet at the entrance of Emperor Hotel." Zhou Weiqing felt a pang of reluctance in his heart, holding her hand and refusing to let go.

  "Look at your silly face." She opened her arms and gave him a light hug, just as she was about to let go, Zhou Weiqing suddenly hugged her tightly. However, he didn't dare to be too excessive, so he just lightly kissed her forehead.

  Watching the lovely face of Shangguan Fei'er blush and disappear at the corner of the street, Zhou Weiqing finally came back to his senses and headed towards his home.

  If it weren't for seeing it with one's own eyes, no one would believe that the home of the number one person in the Tian Gong Empire military could be so simple. The residence of Grand Marshal Zhou was only a three-section courtyard, covering an area of just over 1,000 square meters, with more than ten servants and not even a single guard soldier. Grand Marshal Zhou had once said that soldiers were for fighting on the battlefield, and he absolutely did not want anyone to guard him. Emperor Di Feng Ling of the Tian Gong Empire had repeatedly suggested renovating Grand Marshal Zhou's residence, but was rejected each time. In the empire, Grand Marshal Zhou was respected by others not only because of his military prowess, but also because of his exemplary role; even his residence was like this - which general under him dared to be extravagant? "Mom, I'm back!" Zhou Wei Qing shouted loudly as soon as he entered the door.

  "You stinky kid, you still know how to come back! Is it because you heard your dad went to the front lines that you dared to run back? Quickly let mom take a look, have you lost weight?" Along with Zhou Wei Qing's shout, a voice filled with excitement, heartache, anger and other complex emotions rang out. From the main hall of the central courtyard walked out a woman. It was precisely the wife of General Zhou Da Yuan, Zhou Wei Qing's old mother.

  Zhou Weiqing's mother, Ling Ziyu, was not a stunning beauty, but rather an ordinary-looking woman. She and Zhou Daxian had been childhood sweethearts since they were young, and their feelings for each other ran very deep. After Zhou Daxian achieved success and fame, even though his son was born with closed meridians, he couldn't bear to let his wife have a second child, showing just how much he loved her - not to mention taking on concubines. "Mama!" As soon as Zhou Weiqing saw his mother, he immediately flung himself at her and gave her a big hug.

  Ling Zihuan was originally angry! But when his son hugged him, it dissipated by more than half. He raised his hand and knocked on his son's head "You little rascal, have you grown wings? How dare you run away from home? It's not like you saw the princess bathing or something, what a big deal is that? Empress Fuya is still your fiancée, what are you afraid of? Are you trying to lose some flesh?! You ran for nothing!" If Shangguan Bing'er were here, she would definitely be shocked by Ling Zihuan's ferocity and stare blankly.

  Zhou Weiqing said with a worried and bitter face: "Wasn't this when old dad was at home? If he wasn't at home, I wouldn't have run away either."

  Ling Zihuan snorted, "What's wrong with being at home? Can he really beat you to death? When your dad beats you, it's all for your own good. Which time did he finish beating you and you weren't lively and energetic afterwards? Although you can't cultivate Heavenly Power, when he beats you, he's using Heavenly Power to improve your body. Otherwise, if the old man had beaten your mom like that, she would have fought him to the death long ago."

  Zhou Weiqing stared blankly at his mother, only now realizing that his father had been beating him for his own good. He had always known that his father loved him too, but it was never as obvious as the love from his mother. But hearing his mother say this made him suddenly feel that his father's love for him was not one bit less, and the huge contrast in his heart left him stunned, unable to speak for a long time.

  At this moment, a clear and loud voice filled with anger suddenly sounded from outside "Zhou Weiqing, come out!"

  "This voice is quite impactful, scaring - Zhou Weiqing jumped up, and Ling Ziyu beside him was also stunned for a moment. This kid had just come back, how did someone find his way to the door? Zhou Weiqing's memory was good, but in his memory, he seemed to have never heard this voice before." "What's going on? You little brat?" Ling Ziyu asked doubtfully.

  Zhou Weiqing looked bewildered and said: "I don't know either! I'll go take a look." As he spoke, Zhou Weiqing hastily walked out.

  The Zhou family had no guards, only some slaves. However, for decades, this was the first time someone dared to make a loud noise outside the Marshal's mansion, even with a hint of scolding. The crowd of servants in the Zhou Mansion were greatly puzzled, who was so bold? Dare to come here and stir up trouble.

  The gate of the Zhou family was wide open, and before Zhou Weiqing could walk out, a group of people from the Fu family had already rushed in.

  Two people came, and as soon as they saw them, Zhou Weiqing's heart suddenly tightened.

  Those were two women, walking a little behind, who were none other than Shangguan Bing'er, who had been separated for less than half an hour. At this time, she was in a state of anxiety, being pulled by the hand by another woman walking in front, as if she was being dragged over.

  The woman who brought Ouyang Bing'er, on the surface, looked like she was only in her thirties. If Ouyang Bing'er's beauty still had a few points of greenness, then this middle-aged woman in simple clothes was absolutely stunning. Her beauty was the kind that could move people's hearts and souls. Although her face was cold and frosty, Zhou Weiqing couldn't help but stare for a moment. Ouyang Bing'er and this middle-aged woman looked at least 70% alike, so Zhou Weiqing knew who she was without asking. "Who is Zhou Weiqing?" the middle-aged woman asked coldly. Her breath was clearly uneven, with intense anger that seemed to ignite the air around her body. "Auntie, I am," Zhou Weiqing replied hastily, not daring to be slow, with a honest and simple expression on his face.

  "Who is your aunt? Are you Zhou Weiqing? Good, I was looking for you. You are the one who made me take action?" The middle-aged woman's gaze turned to Zhou Weiqing in an instant, and Zhou Weiqing only felt a chill run down his spine, as if his body had been pierced by two sharp swords. "No need to be so ruthless, right?" Zhou Weiqing asked with a stunned expression.
