Great Martial Arts Auxiliary System

Chapter 161 Promise
Seeing my cheap grandfather dressed in military uniform all his life, his aura is heartbreaking. It would be even better if his temples didn't have that gray hair on his temples.

Thinking about it, if it is an ordinary internal martial artist, at his age, he will definitely not look as old as him.

"General, the Crown Prince is here." Tie Ying said to Shangguan Xiong in front of the bronze mirror.

Seeing Xuanyuan Jing and Nangong Yulie striding in, Xuanyuan Jing did not wait for Shangguan Xiong to salute him first.

Xuanyuan Jing first stepped forward and said:

"Jing, I have met Lord Zhen Guo."

One must know that even his own father respected the old general Shangguan, but he didn't dare to show the prince's profile and asked Shangguan Xiong to salute himself first.

However, the members of the Shangguan family have always adhered to their duties as ministers, and they will not be proud of their favor because of the emperor's favor or their outstanding military exploits.

It is precisely that each generation of the Shangguan family strictly abides by the duty of being a minister and seldom does anything out of line. Therefore, this makes almost every generation of princes ascend to the throne.

They all entrust the Shangguan family with important tasks and give them absolute real power. Even if there are one or two emperors who do not like the Shangguan family occasionally, they will entrust them with important tasks.

"Chen, I have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

No matter what Xuanyuanjing said, Shangguanxiong honestly gave Xuanyuanjing a wake-up salute.

"I've seen the prince." Shangguan Qiuyu saw that his cheap grandfather was like this, but it was not easy to watch from the sidelines, so he followed Shangguan Xiong and bowed to Xuanyuan Jing.

"Please get up, old general." Xuanyuan Jing hurriedly stepped forward to support him.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness."

At this moment, Nangong Yulie stepped forward to salute Shangguanxiong and said:
"The lower official has met the Duke of Zhen Guo"

Shangguan Xiong glanced at him without speaking, then looked at the two women behind him, and saw one of them was looking at Shangguan Qiuyu beside him with joy.

He immediately knew that this was the Nangong Shiluo that his grandson called, his future grandson-in-law.

Therefore, Shangguan Xiong took a good look at Nangong Shiluo, and saw that his birth was beautiful, not bad compared to Ninth Princess Xuanyuan Bingyu, but worthy of his own grandson.

Nangong Yulie, who had been bowing all the time, saw that Shangguanxiong had been silent for a long time. He looked up and saw that he was staring at his daughter.

Seeing her daughter flirting with Shangguan Qiuyu, while Nangong Muxue was also stunned aside, she couldn't help but softly said:
"Shiluo, Muxue, you don't have to pay a visit to Duke Zhen."

After being reminded by her father, Nangong Shiluo finally came to her senses. Seeing that Shangguanxiong was looking at her, she immediately saluted and said:
"Minister Nangong Shiluo has met Zhen Guogong."

"Nangong Muxue, a student from Guofu Academy, has met Lord Zhen Guo." Nangong Muxue also hastily paid homage.

"Don't be too polite, get up quickly." Although he said the words to the three of them together, Shangguan Xiong only supported Nangong Shiluo.

"You are Nangong Shiluo?" Shangguanxiong confirmed.

"Yes" Nangong Shiluo nodded and said, she was about to bow and salute again, but was stopped by Shangguanxiong.

Seeing that Nangong Shiluo was a little nervous, Shangguanxiong couldn't help boasting:
"Good, not bad."

After boasting, he immediately changed his style of painting, showing displeasure and saying:
"You just called me, what?"

Seeing Shangguan Xiong's displeasure, Nangong Shiluo couldn't help becoming more nervous, and her speech was a little sluggish.

"Town, town, Lord of the town."

Originally, she just came to see Shangguan Qiuyu, but she didn't want to see his grandfather now.Even the father of the prestigious Zhen Guogong was very nervous to see him, let alone her.

You know, her relationship with Shangguan Qiuyu, when she saw Shangguan Xiong, she was like other women, when she saw her in-laws for the first time, she was naturally extremely nervous.

Seeing Nangong Shiluo's appearance, Shangguanxiong knew that he might scare the little girl, so he couldn't help being a little embarrassed.

Thinking that this is the granddaughter-in-law Shangguan Qiuyu found for him, he couldn't keep a straight face like others.

So, he tried his best to make himself smile a little bit, lowered his tone as much as possible, shook his head and said:

"Others can call it that, but you should change it."

Originally, Nangong Shiluo was planning to ask Shangguan Qiuyu for help, but seeing Shangguan Xiong suddenly became kind to her.

Hearing what he said, he didn't react for a while, Mengmeng opened his eyes wide and stayed on the spot.

However, she soon came back to her senses, secretly glanced at Shangguan Qiuyu, and saw that he made a 'grandfather' mouth shape to herself.

She immediately turned crimson, looked up at Shangguanxiong in front of her, opened her mouth, embarrassed to speak, then she had to lower her head and say softly:

"grandfather"

Seeing that Nangong Shiluo was a little shy in front of everyone, Shangguanxiong couldn't help but opened his eyes and said nonsense:

"Press? Grandpa is hard of hearing, speak up."

With his skill, even if Nangong Shiluo spoke softly, he could still hear her.

At this time, Nangong Shiluo knew without thinking that Shangguan Qiuyu had already told his grandfather about the two of them.

That being the case, she couldn't pretend to be reserved, although it made her very shy in front of everyone.But she also knew that she couldn't lose her identity in front of Shangguan Qiuyu's grandfather.

With his military character, he definitely doesn't like those petty women who are not on the stage.

Thinking of this, even though Nangong Shiluo was shy, she saluted Shangguanxiong again and said:

"Shiluo met Grandpa"

After Shangguanxiong helped Nangong Shiluo up, he said to him with a smile on his face:
"That's right, remember it in the future, don't make a mistake."

"Yes, Grandpa, Shiluo has remembered." Nangong Shiluo nodded in response.

"En." Shangguanxiong nodded in satisfaction, then turned his head to look at Nangong Yulie, and said to him:
"City Master Nangong, Qiu Yu has already told me about the two of them. I heard that you have agreed to his (her) matter?"

Seeing Shangguanxiong's question, Nangong Yulie said calmly:
"Well, at that time, the lower official didn't know that Qiu Yu was the grandson of the Duke, so he agreed on his own initiative. However, this matter has to be decided by the Duke."

He also saw that Shangguan Xiong's behavior towards his daughter would most likely not object to the two of them.

However, he still couldn't guarantee Shangguanxiong's thoughts, so he had no choice but to be ambiguous. To be honest, in the end, he gave Shangguanxiong the right to choose and let him decide on his own.

As a soldier, Shangguanxiong has a straightforward personality and doesn't like to procrastinate. Now that the matter is settled, Shangguanxiong said to Nangong Yulie:
"Hehe, since you don't have any opinions, Yulie, then the matter between the two of them will be settled like this."

Shangguan Xiong just called Nangong Yulie the city lord, but now he calls him by his name directly to show his closeness.

"Let the princess decide"

Shangguan Xiong agreed, and he would not refuse.

Xuanyuan Jing who was at the side frowned when he saw that the Lord of the Town, Shangguan Xiong, had agreed to the matter between Shangguan Qiuyu and Nangong Shiluo.

But he didn't say anything, and he didn't stand up to stop it. Even if he stood up, it was useless. What could he say to prevent Shangguanxiong from agreeing to the two of them?

Don't be kidding, don't look at Shangguan Xiong being very polite to him, but this kind of politeness is not for himself, this kind of politeness is for Shangguanxiong to the father on his head.

Otherwise, how could Shangguanxiong have met him.
