As soon as this move came out, the whole audience was stunned.

No one expected that Shangguanhong's teacher turned out to be the Minister of the Ministry of War.

No wonder he is in an important position at such a young age. It turns out he has a big backer behind him.

"What? Brother Hong and Mr. Hu are actually masters and apprentices?"

Seeing this scene, Cao Zhiyuan was stunned at first, then showed ecstasy and excitement: "It's great, great! With the support of such a big shot, let's see who dares to make a mistake!"

Who is the Minister of War?

A high-ranking official in the current dynasty, with a high position and powerful eyes, with hands and eyes reaching the sky, standing above tens of millions of people!

Just a light stomp of the foot can shake the entire Jiangnan.

Even the twin stars of the Zhao family, who are so powerful in the world, dare not be too presumptuous before the Ministry of War.

What's more, not only the Minister of War, but also the commander of the Imperial City Army, the eldest son of the Marquis, and many other dignitaries rushed to the Shangguan family's aid.

When these people get together, even if they are relatives of the emperor, they have to avoid the edge for the time being.

"As expected of a very wealthy family! They actually have such connections? Now we are finally saved!"

Cao Jun and others wept with joy, as if seeing a savior.

When the Zhao family twins appeared, they thought the Shangguan family was doomed, and they were even prepared to be treated as scapegoats.

However, the appearance of Hu Xuehai and others was like a beam of light in the darkness, giving them hope of survival.

What about Governor Xia? What about Old General Murong? Even if the twins of the Zhao family are added to the mix, they cannot really threaten the status of the Shangguan family in front of a group of dignitaries headed by the Minister of War.

"Hong'er, today is your engagement day, and I don't have anything to give you as a teacher. This jade pendant has been with me for many years, and now I give it to you. I hope you will continue your efforts and reach new heights in the future."

Hu Xuehai smiled, took out a simple jade pendant, and handed it to Shangguan Hong.

"Thank you teacher."

Shangguan Hong took it with both hands, respectfully.

"Lord Earl, something seems to be wrong with you here? Why do you look so tense?" Hu Xuehai quickly noticed something was wrong.

"My lord Hu, we encountered some troubles at home today. Thank you for coming in time, otherwise my Earl's Mansion would have been demolished." Shangguan Pengcheng said meaningfully.

"Oh? Who is so bold and dares to act wild in the Earl's Mansion?" Hu Xuehai raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Far away in the horizon, close in front of you." Shangguan Pengcheng glanced forward.

Hu Xuehai took advantage of the situation and scanned everyone's faces one by one: "The Governor of Southern Province, the veteran protector of the country, the twin stars of the Zhao family...there are so many people here."

"Teacher, these guys are going too far. I hope you can uphold justice for us." Shangguan Hong looked respectful.

"Don't worry, I have a good teacher here, no one dares to make mistakes."

Hu Xuehai held his head high, staring at Lu Chen and his party with piercing eyes: "Everyone, if you come to congratulate me today, I will welcome you, but if you want to make trouble, I, Hu, will never agree!"

"Master Hu, it's not us who are causing trouble, it's the Shangguan family who has provoked people they shouldn't have provoked."

Zhao Wuji said calmly: "For the sake of the fact that we are officials in the same dynasty, I would like to advise you not to meddle in other people's affairs, so as not to get burned." JrNovels.com
