Chapter 972: The Shock in My Heart Was Greater Than Anyone E

his morning, he went to Li's doorstep early and waited. Now that he is the head of the Chamber of Commerce in Luoshui City, he doesn't need to personally handle things like setting up a shop, but Zha...Zhao Yun sighed, wishing he had just stayed at the mountain villa and not followed halfway.

He had originally intended to listen to Gege's words and stay at the manor to guard it, but after waiting for two hours and not seeing them return, his heart became uneasy. He quietly came to Jing Wangfu.

Today, the Wangfu was bustling with guests. Even though he had climbed over the wall to enter, his presence did not draw much attention.

But unexpectedly, Yu Ge still found him.

Zhao Yun resolutely walked forward from the crowd, upholding military etiquette and paying respects to Zong Yu.

"Greetings, General Zong. I have met your subordinate."

Zhao Yun was the second son of the Zhao family in the capital. The burden of the family did not fall on him, as his elder brother, the eldest son, inherited it. Zhao Yun secretly joined the army before his ancestral fame joined the military and he had already become a fifth-rank military officer in the court.

So when Zhao Yun appeared, many of the guests and officials present actually recognized him.

"Isn't this Zhao Er Gongzi"

"He looks like the young master of the Zhao family. Shouldn't he still be on his way back to the capital with the Western Zhou army"

"Zhao Er Gongzi called him General, could he be the new war god general from the Xizhou War, Zong Yu!"

The name Zong Yu might not be known to many people in the capital city now. Among the guests present, only a few high-ranking officials knew it, and their faces changed instantly when they heard the name.

It doesn't matter who Zong Yu is to anyone else, just the name itself was enough to change their expressions. That tells you he's not an ordinary person.

The new God of War General, it turns out he was the miracle of the Western State War, the Western State War God who even Yama wouldn't dare to claim.

"Many people have speculated about the appearance of this new war god in private, thinking he was eight feet tall with a green face and fangs. Otherwise, how could he be so valiant in battle"

"At first glance today, it's truly amazing. This War God General not only looks nothing like the rumors suggested, but he is also incredibly tall and handsome."

"She just seems a little difficult to get along with."

Hearing this, Fang Jinshu couldn't help but smile. A Yu certainly didn't look like an ordinary, approachable person at all.

But he was certainly not the kind of fierce and reckless man.

"Wow, so this is the War God. He... he's truly extraordinary, such a manly presence."

With the blessing of the War God filter, some noblewomen who didn't usually care about reputation started to discuss him in hushed tones, and some even blushed slightly.

Fan Jinshu laughed not, her lips pursed.

These noblewomen are truly looking down on people, those with status and those without are completely different existences in their eyes.

Such a superficial woman, A-Yu wouldn't even glance at them.

Zongyu truly didn't care much about the outside world or other people's gazes. He let Zhao Yun present the identity tokens of the two of them.

With the token and the testimony of Young Master Zhao, there was little doubt about Zong Yu's identity. After all, who would dare to impersonate the War God General This was a capital offense.

"Now, do you have any questions"

“Is my brother able to get up yet”

Fang Jinxiu's heart skipped a beat when she saw his imposing and domineering presence. This man was going to come in with her as a bodyguard today, yet he still dressed so impeccably and ostentatiously! Was this intentional

Among the women present, it wasn't just Fang Jinshui who was captivated by Zong Yushuai. The unmarried girls were even more flushed with excitement, their eyes filled with admiration as they gazed at him.

Fang Jinshu's heart was filled with resentment, she wished she could take Zong Yu away from here and back to the manor right now!

Since he is General Zong's younger brother, he naturally won't have to receive those fifty lashes anymore.

Fu Ming was the first to stand up and speak for his family. Wen Xiong, though he was a military officer in charge of all soldiers, big and small in the court.

But although Zong Yu achieved such remarkable feats, before he could return to receive his title, he was already a general-level officer who was beyond the control of the Ministry of War. The Ministry simply did not have the authority to manage him.

By the time the great army returns to court and formally receives their titles before His Majesty, the status they have earned will likely make it difficult for them to offend anyone.

Perhaps knighted.

"Zong Bai, get up."

Although the executioner guards were loyal to Wenxiong, they dared not obstruct Zongyu's actions. They could only step aside and refrain from causing trouble.

Zong Pingchuan's eyes widened in disbelief after learning about Zongyu's identity. He was more shocked than anyone else.

His eldest son turned out to be the awe-inspiring Western Zhou War God who shocked the court and the people.

Prior to this, he hadn't paid much attention to matters concerning generals. Intelligence about Xizhou's military was top-secret, known only to a few old ministers and His Majesty.

Zong Pingchuan only knew that this war god general also surnamed Zong. At the time, he just thought it was a coincidence and thought that when this fellow surname general returned to the capital in the future, he might be able to use this opportunity to make some connections.

But he never expected this person to be his hometown's eldest son.

The son who was so quiet and introverted from childhood that even he found it difficult to get along with.e in advance and stepped aside, dodging Zong Pingchuan's hand.His expression was impassive."If my memory serves me right, we at Jinxiu Garden haven't sent an invitation to Lord Zong's residence. Is Lo...
