Liang Xiao and Liu Ling discussed for half a night. Early the next morning, he got up for morning exercises. Liu Ling sat by the window and wrote a memorial in Liang Xiao's tone, claiming that he was unwell and had an old disease, he asked to be exempted from office and recuperate. He also requested to transfer the fief to Lushan, Yuzhang, and join the manor where Jianshan was built in Lushan.

After breakfast, Liang Xiao read it and did not change a word, so he arranged for someone to take it to Ganquan Palace. He could read ancient Chinese, but could not write ancient Chinese. In this regard, Liu Ling was countless times better than him. Although the emperor could tell at a glance that this was Liu Ling's work, it was not important for them to hold the pen. Instead, it would be a sign that they had the same opinion.

After finishing the work, Liang Xiao ordered people to prepare horses and prepare to go out to meet Dong Zhongshu. Liu Ling said that Dong Zhongshu worked as a junior doctor in Beijing, but had no power. The emperor didn't like him very much. He didn't bring him with him this time when he went to Ganquan Palace. He was unemployed in Chang'an. He had a scholar and his salary was limited, so he had to accept disciples to give lectures and subsidize his family. Occasionally, he went to a salon to open meat and sacrifice to the gods of the five internal organs. His life was neither salty nor light.

Although Liang Xiao scoffed at Dong Zhongshu's theory, he did not feel much disgusted with Dong Zhongshu. When he learned that he was so depressed, he asked him to bring some gifts. This time he came back from Nanyue, he brought a lot of good things. Not only did Zhao Yingqi lose to him, Lu Xiang also gave him a batch of good things such as ivory rhinoceros horns, but from the perspective of economic interests, he made a lot of money.

After preparing the gift, Liang Xiao went out of the door and was about to turn over the horse. A person suddenly rushed out from beside him and grabbed Liang Xiao's arm, so fast that even Tu Niu'er had no time to react. Liang Xiao didn't have time to think too much, so he turned his instinctively, pushed the man away, and hit him out with his right fist.

"Bang!" With a muffled sound, the man fell out and sat on the ground.

Tu Niuer was so angry that he rushed over, drew his sword and prepared to chop. He pulled out half of the knife, and he recognized the person. "Huo Qubing?"

Huo Qubing grinned, and the fall was quite a bit bad. "Senior brother, it's me."

Liang Xiao was so amazed and laughed. He stepped forward to stop Tu Niuer and pulled Huo Qubing up. "What are you doing? Want to be an assassin?"

"What kind of assassin?" Huo Qubing covered his butt and smiled bitterly: "Where is the master, is he at home?"

"The master hasn't come back, he's still in Yuzhang." Liang Xiao said halfway, and suddenly felt something was wrong. "Hey, your master's screams so happily, is it because he has mastered it?"

"Of course." Huo Qubing raised his face and said proudly: "It took me only fifty days to realize the intention of the bow, and then I spent fifty days to consolidate it. Now I have achieved no bow in my hand and a bow in my heart. Walk, sit and lie down, and I will not leave my bow."

Liang Xiao was suspicious. Seeing this, Huo Qubing didn't talk nonsense. He opened his arms and held the bow that did not exist. He made a bow-opening posture. When Liang Xiao saw it, his eyes lit up. That's right. Huo Qubing not only eliminated the common disease of shrugging, but also had smooth strength and indeed completed the foundation building.

Liang Xiao nodded repeatedly. This kid is indeed extremely conscious. Just after Huan Yuan pointed out a few words, he really practiced it himself.

"How is that, right?"

"That's right." Liang Xiao nodded repeatedly. "I think you are a little faster than I did in the past. The master will definitely be very happy to see it."

"Take it seriously?" Huo Qubing was surprised and happy. Although he was confident and even a little conceited, he was not so arrogant that he felt that he could surpass Liang Xiao. Now that Liang Xiao said this in front of so many people, it was undoubtedly a great affirmation of him. He could not believe his ears very much.

"What am I lying to you?" Liang Xiao laughed. "Okay, I'll take my own initiative and accept you on behalf of the master. The master is not in Chang'an, please follow me first. Starting from today, I will teach you the art of shooting. After seeing the master, he will personally guide you."

"Okay, okay." Huo Qubing couldn't help but clapped his hands repeatedly, showing his youthful expression. Liang Xiao was also very happy when he saw it. He turned around and took him in, went straight to the atrium, took out the bamboo bow that Huan Yuan gave him, and handed it to Huo Qubing. "This is the bamboo bow that the master gave me back then. From now on, you will use this bow to practice archery."

Huo Qubing looked at the bamboo bow and was a little surprised. "So soft?"

"That's right. Using a soft bow is the same as practicing empty-handed, to avoid using brute force." Liang Xiao thought for a while and said, "Boy, you should pay special attention. At the beginning of urging, don't be too obsessed with it. Your mind should focus on the inside and not the outside. When you can truly achieve the unity of human bows and the strength is not hindered, it will be easier to pursue it."

"Okay, I'll listen to my senior brother." Huo Qubing responded, put away the bow, and hung it solemnly in the bow bag.

Liang Xiao brought another group of horses to Huo Qubing as a gift. Huo Qubing was not polite and took them one by one. Just as Liang Xiao was about to go out again, he stood up and said, "Senior Brother, please wait for me to pay homage to Lingtang and Master Weng. From now on, we are fellow disciples and we can't be rude. When I got my master's answer, Lingtang would help me to agree."

Liang Xiao laughed silently and did not stop him. He led him to pay homage to his mother, Mama Liang, and then to meet Liu Ling. When he learned that Huo Qubing had completed the foundation building and became a true brother of Liang Xiao, Mama Liang was very happy and gave two brocades as a meeting gift. Liu Ling was not stingy and gave him an ivory arrow ring, and told Huo Qubing that the arrow ring and the arrow ring that Liang Xiao used were cut off from the same ivory.

Huo Qubing was overjoyed and immediately put the ivory arrow on the thumb of his right hand.

After a busy life, Liang Xiao took Huo Qubing out and headed straight to Dong Zhongshu's house. Liang Xiao lives in Jiadi, north of Weiyang Palace, located in the central west of the city, but Dong Zhongshu's house lived in the northeast of Chang'an City. The terrain is relatively low and too far from Weiyang Palace. It is the first choice for some people who have limited financial resources but are not willing to live outside the city.

Although Liang Xiao and others were riding horses, the road in Chang'an City was wide, but people came and drove, and it was inconvenient to drive. When they found Dong Zhongshu's house, it was already noon. However, Dong Zhongshu was not at home, and only his old wife was at home. Perhaps Dong Zhongshu's guests were mostly Confucian scholars. Seeing Liang Xiao and his group carrying bows and knives, the old woman couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and she spoke a dialect that was not clear enough.

Liang Xiao asked a few questions, but when he saw that he didn't know what to do, he had to give up and ordered someone to put down the gift and left.

After walking a long way, Liang Xiao was unable to help but feel a little disappointed. He had no way to go back. He left the city through Luocheng Gate, preparing to circle the city for half a circle, and relax. Huo Qubing said, "Senior Brother, since it's okay, why not go to my house to sit there."

"Your home?" Liang Xiao was surprised. "Your home is also nearby?"

"It's just south." Huo Qubing pointed. "Not far from Qunihou's Mansion."

Liang Xiao then remembered that Huo Qubing's mother Wei Shaoer married Chen Zhang. Chen Zhang was descendant of Chen Ping. But he was not the eldest son. His brother Chen He was the fourth generation of Qu Ni Hou. After Chen Zhang became an adult, he could only abdicate his family and relied on his own, right next to Qu Ni Hou's Mansion. In his impression, this place would be built into Mingguang Palace in the future. Unexpectedly, Qu Ni Hou's Mansion was also here, and it probably disappeared with the demolition.

"Let's go, I've been away for a long time. I'll be tired and want to drink."

The Chen family is in Qianqiuli. Although they are adjacent to the Qu Ni Hou Mansion, they are not on the side of the door. From the appearance, they are just an ordinary courtyard, and there is no way to tell what it has to do with the Qu Ni Hou Mansion next to them. The difference between the legitimate and illegitimate is still very big. No wonder Chen Zhang married Wei Shaoren as his wife. An affair is one thing, and marrying a proper wife is another thing. Chen Zhang probably took a fancy to Wei Zifu and wanted to climb up with the Wei family. Now that Wei Zifu is out of favor, he doesn't know what he will think.

Liang Xiao got off the horse in front of the door. Huo Qubing stepped forward and called the door. Halfway through the door, revealing a pale and thin face. A cold look swept across Huo Qubing's face, and when he saw Liang Xiao and others, he was shocked.

"Who are you?"

"He is my senior brother, come to sit at home and drink some water."

"Your senior brother?" The servant sneered. The awe in his eyes suddenly faded. He stretched out his hand and pushed Huo Qubing away, sneering: "You really think that you are the young master of the Chen family. You dare to come to the door with a bunch of golfers..."

Liang Xiao was stunned when he heard this. He thought that Wei Zifu's fall of favor might be unfavorable to Wei Shaoer and his son, but he didn't expect that the situation had deteriorated to this point. Even a servant of the Chen family could be rude to Huo Qubing. This snobbish eye turned too quickly. Seeing the servant reaching out to push Huo Qubing, he winked on Pang Shuo.

Pang Shuo understood, took a step forward and pushed his palm against the half-open door. "Boom!" With a loud bang, half of the door flew out, and the pale-faced servant in blue flew out, and the door was pressed down again, screaming in pain.

In an instant, the Chen family became lively. More than a dozen Jiannu rushed out with weapons and surrounded Liang Xiao and others. Although Liang Xiao only brought a few people, he would not take these dog legs seriously. He put one hand behind his back and the other hand on Huo Qubing's shoulder, and chuckled, "Are you afraid?"

Huo Qubing rolled his eyes. "What's there to be afraid of? It's just a fight."

"Okay, there's a promising future." Liang Xiao praised and waved his hand. "Get me!"

"Here!" Pang Shuo and others responded, jumped forward, without even using weapons, punched and kicked, and in a moment, they knocked more than a dozen Jiannu to the ground, crying for their parents.

As the fight was lively, Chen Zhang quickly walked out from inside, followed by two young men wearing swords. Seeing the scene in the courtyard, Chen Zhang was furious: "I don't know who it is, when did Chen Zhang offend me, and even ruin my door and hurt my servant."

Liang Xiaoman bowed carelessly. "Liang Xiao from Guangling, I have met Mr. Chen."

"Liang Xiao?" Chen Zhan was stunned for a moment, looked at Liang Xiao carefully for a while, and then he recognized him. He originally knew Liang Xiao, but he had no relationship, but he had a little impression. Liang Xiao went to Nanyue for half a year and was tanned by the sunshine in the south. He was completely different from when he was in Chang'an. He didn't recognize him for a while. When he learned that the champion Hou Liang Xiao was coming, Chen Zhan was immediately short of breath.

"Champion Hou, you are..."

"I was invited by my junior brother Huo Qubing. I wanted to come to your mansion to ask for a drink, but I didn't expect that the servant in your mansion was above the top and refused to let me in. He even spoke ill of evil words. I was so angry that I took action." Liang Xiao grinned, without any sincerity. "Mr. Chen, I am a warrior, I have a little anxious temper. Please forgive me for my impoliteness."

Chen Zhan smiled bitterly. He didn't have to think about it, it must be the servant who was rude to Huo Qubing, which angered Liang Xiao. However, although he had an official position, he did not have a title, so he did not dare to provoke Liang Xiao at all, so he could only follow the steps. "Junhou was joking, it was me who neglected to discipline and was rude first. Junhou, when did Qubing become your junior brother?"

"Just this morning." Liang Xiao touched Huo Qubing's head.

Chen Zhang was skeptical, but he didn't ask much, so he had to drink and ask Liang Xiao to come to the hall and arrange drinks. Huo Qubing came in and reported to his mother Wei. After a while, Wei Shaoer walked out. Although he was wearing a brocade clothes, the creases on the brocade clothes were clearly visible, and it was obviously the one he had just changed. Wei Shaoer walked up to Liang Xiao, bowed to salute, and the moment she lowered her head, a hint of gratitude appeared in the corners of her slightly raised eyes.

Wei Shaoer glanced at Chen Zhan. Chen Zhan smiled and said, "Madam, the first time that the senior brother who has been sick has arrived, the servants at home are rude first. We can treat you kindly and give a gift. Do you make arrangements?"

Wei Shaoer nodded, laughed, but was a little reluctant. She bowed to Liang Xiao again, then got out of the hall and arranged a banquet. Liang Xiao saw it and didn't say anything. He had already revealed his identity, and Chen Zhang naturally knew what to do, so he didn't need to waste his words.

Chen Zhan was very calm, and there was no sign of anything strange on his face. He talked and laughed with Liang Xiao, although Liang Xiao was not very enthusiastic, he just answered occasionally. With Chen Zhan's enthusiasm, the atmosphere gradually became lively and no longer awkward.

"Why did Junhou come here? There is no scenery here."

"I was originally going to visit Mr. Dong. Unexpectedly, Mr. Dong was not at home, so I came to see my sick mother and asked for a drink."

"Master Dong." Chen Zhang thought for a while. "He should have gone to Changmenyuan."

"Nakamenyuan?"

Chen Zhang nodded and laughed, with an indescribable bitterness. "Yes, Mrs. Chen gave birth to a prince. Now the Chen family is in full swing. Although Changmen Garden is remote, it is a good place for literati and poets to pursue. If the status is not noble enough and there is no knowledge, it is rare to ask for one."

Liang Xiao's heart moved. Chen Zhan may have regretted it at this moment and he has exhausted his heart and made up his relationship with the Chen family. But he obviously didn't know that with Wei Zifu's fall from favor, the situation had actually changed. At the moment, the Chen family was not worried about Wei Zifu, but the newly-entered beauty Wang. Based on the principle that the enemy's enemy is a friend, the Chen family should not reject Chen Zhan at this moment.

However, Chen Zhang is not good at character. Once the situation changes, such people cannot rely on it, which may become a hidden danger. The Chen family's mother and son are not smart people. They should remind them to be careful of Chen Zhang, at least they cannot attract him as their confidant.

"Mr. Chen, a knowledgeable person may not be knowledgeable." Liang Xiao smiled slightly. "Qu Ni Xianhou (Chen Ping) is in charge of the world, not based on the knowledge of searching for chapters and picking sentences."

After entering the Chen family, it was not until this moment that Liang Xiao showed a friendly smile for the first time, and Chen Ping praised the ancestor of the Chen family. Chen Zhang was naturally happy. He suddenly remembered that the Liang Xiao in front of him was the son-in-law of the King of Huainan. He debated with Dong Zhongshu, and he was not interested in Confucianism. The Chen family's knowledge was also Taoism, and they still had a common language.

"June, as far as I know, you do not respect Confucianism. Is there any question to debate when I meet Mr. Dong this time?"-
