Chapter 143.2
Yuan Tiangang, what a good name! What skills do you possess? Tell me quickly!
Lin Beifan said with a smile. If you truly have great talent, I will certainly make good use of you!
Reporting to Your Majesty, I am but a commoner who grew up in poverty, yet I have a deep love for reading! I can recite the Four Books and Five Classics by heart, and I am skilled in all arts including the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting! However, my greatest expertise lies in physiognomy!
Physiognomy!
Lin Beifans eyes sharpened, and he laughed. That truly is a unique skill! Done well, one is a living immortal; done poorly, one is a swindler! Then I shall test you to see if you truly have real talent!
Your Majesty, please pose your question! Yuan Tiangang was very confident.
Lin Beifan pointed to himself: Me. What do you see?
Yuan Tiangang immediately bowed with his hands clasped: Your Majesty is the Sovereign Star, the true master of ten thousand stars, the destined Son of Heaven. Sooner or later, you will conquer the world! That is why, Your Majesty, I have traveled thousands of miles to serve you!
Lin Beifan laughed and scolded, Although what you say sounds pleasant, it smacks of flattery! Disqualified. Ill pose another question!
Your Majesty, please proceed! Yuan Tiangang said.
What do you think of my beloved concubine? Lin Beifan asked, pointing to the silent consort beside him.
Yuan Tiangang glanced at Wang Xiangjun and bowed respectfully, saying, She possesses the aspect of a phoenix. Her destiny is extremely noble, a motherly figure to the whole world!
Lin Beifan shook his head, Wrong! My beloved concubine has been alone since her family members passed away one after another from her childhood. She has lived a lonely and desolate life! Ordinary people cannot come into contact with her; otherwise, misfortune will occur. She can be considered the Heavens Doom Star! If she had not met me, she wouldnt know where her soul would belong in this lifetime! So, your calculation is not at all accurate!
Wang Xiangjun thought of her own sorrowful past and couldnt help feeling bitter.
Your Majesty, I definitely did not make a mistake!
Yuan Tiangang said emphatically, The Consort is indeed of the phoenix aspect, her destiny is truly noble beyond compare! The reason why her family passed away when she was young is that the phoenixs destiny is unique, and no one can bear this blood relation! Once they fulfill their own mission, they will leave this world and be reborn! But in their next lives, they will be reborn into wealthy and noble families, living a life of peace and prosperity, enjoying wealth and honor!
Wang Xiangjun couldnt help but ask, Is what youre saying true? Will all the members of my family be reborn into wealthy households in the next life, living a life of peace and joy, enjoying riches and honor?Follow current novels at novelhall.com)
How dare I deceive Your Highness? I am willing to guarantee it with my own head! Yuan Tiangang assured loudly.
Ordinary people who come into contact with her will encounter misfortune, and its also because of her fate! Her fate is noble and must not be desecrated! Anyone who desecrates it will be punished by the heavens, and misfortune will follow them continuously!
Yuan Tiangang looked up at Lin Beifan, clasped his hands together in a bow, and said, Only Your Majesty can bear this fate! Because you are the Sovereign Star, the true master of ten thousand stars, the ruler of the world, and your fate is the most noble, blessed by the heavens! The union between the two of you is also a match made by the heavens!
Lin Beifan laughed and scolded, That sounds like youre flattering again, only its more advanced level this time! It doesnt count, Ill give you another question to test you! What do you think about this person?
Lin Beifan pointed at Wu Sangui.
This Yuan Tiangang furrowed his brows, appearing to be somewhat troubled.
Whats the matter? Cant figure it out? Lin Beifan said with a smile.
Its not that, its just that there are some things that are inappropriate to say! Your Majesty, please step aside, and I will certainly explain everything in detail!
Lin Beifan looked at the two with a smile and nodded, Alright!
Yuan Tiangang bowed respectfully, This humble servant has traveled far and wide, and with my expertise in physiognomy, I have made the acquaintance of many martial arts experts. I can invite them to come and serve Your Majesty!
Is that so? Lin Beifan was very pleased.
Yes, Your Majesty!
Yuan Tiangang said confidently, My friends are all over the world, and many of them are extraordinary in martial arts! Although most of them have settled down and cannot come to Great Xia, three or four should not be a problem!
It was then that Lin Beifan remembered that a remarkable person like Yuan Tiangang would typically have friends all over the world, and those friends were often formidable.
If he could really bring a few Innates, it would be of great benefit to him.
Then Ill have to trouble Minister Yuan!
Lin Beifan said with a smile. Tell them that I am in desperate need of talented individuals. If they can come and serve me, I will certainly make good use of their skills and provide them with satisfactory rewards!
It would be their honor! Yuan Tiangang replied with a smile.
Also, Minister, if this matter is successful, I will not let you down! Lin Beifan added.
Thank you, Your Majesty! Yuan Tiangang said loudly.
After returning, Yuan Tiangang immediately wrote several letters and sent them to his friends in the rivers and lakes, inviting them to come and serve the Great Xia.
In less than half a month, indeed, three people made their way over.
One of them had a fair complexion and pearly white teeth, with a slender body and a somewhat effeminate manner, dressed like a scholar.
But woe betide anyone who underestimates him.
For he possessed innate strength, his swordplay was tricky and ruthless, and he was also skilled in using hidden weapons. People in the rivers and lakes call him the Deadly Scholar.
The other two were brothers, broad-shouldered and robust, with imposing statures. They practiced hard techniques like the Iron Shirt, impervious to blades and spears.
However, they were a bit slow-witted, not fond of using their brains, preferring action over words. The pair were known as the Heng Ha Generals.
They owed Yuan Tiangang a favor, and with nothing to do and nowhere to go at the moment, they had come here.
Although they were a bit odd, Lin Beifan was very pleased to take them in.
Three more Innates have joined us, only three short of 20 now. The dynastys prospects are looking hopeful!
