The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 756

Chapter 756: 349 Surprise (first update) _2

The emperor’s laughter looked even worse than his crying.

The officials couldn’t help but sigh - the empress dowager really dotes on this son of hers!

It seems that after the misunderstanding of the empress dowager poisoning the young master of Zhaodu was lifted, the relationship between mother and son had indeed softened a lot!

Gu Jiao knew nothing about the happenings inside the palace. After sending Little Jing Kong off to study at Guozijian, she made a trip to the Medical Hall.

She found that the Medical Hall often had more patients in the morning, and was slightly quieter in the afternoon. The young girl from the women’s school who sometimes came to play the zither in the next room was now nowhere to be heard.

She attempted to let Little Jiang Li learn the zither, but the young girl was only interested in herbal medicine, learning to play the zither proved to be even more challenging than learning to write for her.

She had to give up on the idea of having Little Jiang Li play the zither for her.

Gu Jiao looked at the Fo Xi zither on the table, she tapped the zither case a few times, opened it, and gently took out the Fo Xi zither that was slightly burned at the end.

Her slender fingers gently swept over the zither strings, but she did not play in the end. She placed the Fo Xi zither back in the case, closed it and left the Medical Hall.

She went to the Martial Arts Academy.

After enduring several months of martial arts challenges, she had become the chief martial arts instructor of the academy from being a beginner martial artist. The next rank would be that of a grandmaster.

It is said that the total number of grandmasters in the Capital City can be counted on one hand, they are extremely rare and precious.

Of course, this is jargon, for the common folk, they are simply a group of martial arts masters.

Grandmasters seldom appear in the Jianghu. The Taihe Martial Arts Academy has a grandmaster on the station, but it’s just in name. Gu Jiao has visited the academy so many times, yet she hasn’t seen even a single hair of his.

The old master came to the academy today too, not just to watch Gu Jiao compete, but also to see if he could find any other promising talents. If it were before, he might have found a few, but since Gu Jiao came along, he became much more discerning.

It seems very difficult to find another such young, talented individual who can control their murderous intentions.

He was a general in battle, having killed countless enemies in his lifetime. How could he not feel the murderous intent in a person?

The old master did not know what his sworn younger brother had been through to harbor such heavy murderous intent, what’s rare is that he managed to suppress it and did not become a bloodthirsty monster. _{fгeewebnovёl.com}

This was another reason why the old master admired Gu Jiao.

When Gu Jiao came down from the martial arts platform, the old master also came out from the second floor room, the two met in the grand hall.

The old master looked at Gu Jiao with a smile, saying: "Is today’s competition over?"
