There is a saying that some families are happy and some families are sad. When Sun Tu won the victory and gained fame and fortune, his opponent, the Liao delegation, said goodbye to the city of Tokyo in a little lonely way.

Of course, although many of these people were indignant because they were defeated by the Song people in the end, Yelu Jian was definitely not among them. Even before leaving Tokyo, he specially sent Sun Tu a gift and letter to wish him to be promoted as soon as possible and become the pillar of the Song Dynasty. As an important official of the Liao Kingdom, he would never be depressed by a mere small defeat.

The only thing that made him unwilling to accept was that he could not recruit Sun Tu as talented as his subordinates. So when he led his men out of Tokyo and walked forward for about ten miles, he suddenly turned around and looked at the majestic and majestic capital of the Song Dynasty from afar and secretly sweared in his heart: "One day, I, Yelu Dashi, will definitely return to Tokyo again. By then, I will let the whole city of soldiers and civilians crawl at my feet and become the Shun people of my Great Liao!"

The so-called Yelu Jian is just a false identity he conceals his eyes. His real identity is the only Khitan who passed the imperial examination and passed the imperial examination. Yelu Dashi, the governor of the Liao Xingjun who was the most trusted by the Emperor of the Great Liao, was called Dashi Linya in the court!

If Sun Tu had revealed his identity early in the morning and knew the role he played in the Song-Liao War a few years later, he would probably have killed him without hesitation to eliminate future troubles. Unfortunately, Sun Tu did not know this at this time. He was explaining his experience in this period to his master, as if he was conscious, and suddenly turned around, looking deep in the north, colliding with Yelu Dashi, the future opponent's gaze in the air.

Before Zhou Tong was talking, Zhou Xiuwan, who was also fascinated by the side, said anxiously: "Next, senior brother, why did you stop halfway through the words? Have you led people to defeat the Liao people?"

"Oh..." Sun Tu turned around and smiled apologetically at the two of them, and continued to say what he should say: "Disciple finally did not embarrass you, Master, and won a victory for me, the Song Dynasty."

This made Zhou Xiuwan cheer, and then hugged Ya'er, who was surrounded by her with a proud smile: "Ya'er, your third brother is really amazing. I would have such a brother as well."

Ya'er's tender face turned red and she hurriedly said, "Wan'er and I are like sisters, and my third brother is naturally your brother." While this statement made Zhou Xiuwan very happy, it also made Zhou Tong a little embarrassed. Zhou Xiuwan was his granddaughter, but Sun Tu was his apprentice. In this way, everyone's seniority was completely messed up.

Fortunately, the two little girls soon had other ideas and ran aside to talk in a low voice. Then he focused his attention on Sun Tu again: "You haven't come to see you for a long time. I wonder if you are abandoned in martial arts?"

"Disciples dare not slackewer, they will always take two hours a day to practice martial arts."

"It's no point in saying that, let's try two tricks with me first." Zhou Tong said as he was already cheering up, and when he came to the yard, he put on a stance to let Sun Tu attack. Sun Tu did not dare to be negligent, and immediately raised his spirits and wandered around while looking for the flaws that the other party might have exposed.

When Zhou Tong moved his footsteps, a trace of flaw appeared on the left side. Sun Tu had already rushed forward, and his left fist clenched his fists directly attacked the flaw under his master like thunder. Just as Zhou Tong quickly sank his arm to handle this move, his right hand had already rushed to the other side's face. This was Sun Tu's real killer move.

"Okay!" But this move was still as expected by Zhou Tong. He took a step behind and flashed easily, and pointed at him: "You are fast when you make a move, but before that, you are still easily seen through by people, but this habit has to be changed."

Sun Tu responded lowly, immediately ravaged his body and went up again, and greeted his master with a sound of fists and feet, without any mercy. But even though he tried his best and his moves were fierce, he still could not pose any threat to Zhou Tong. Finally, after attacking for more than twenty moves in a row, he finally stopped his strength and his moves were interrupted. Zhou Tong immediately seized this opportunity, suddenly put his palm on Sun Tu's chest, pushing him back and staggered until he stopped his pace.

"Well, the set of Liu Ding Kaishan Fist you just used is quite good. You can actually understand all the moves thoroughly and turn them into your own use without being limited to the coherence between moves. However, your fist skills still have more killing intentions. You can let go but not stop, so you will eventually fall into a inferior way. You have to think about it carefully." Zhou Tong slowly pointed out some of Sun Tu's problems just now.

This made Sun Tu stunned: "Isn't martial arts used to defeat the enemy? Why is it not good for me to bring murderous aura?"

"We have murderous intentions, but our hearts should be like a mirror, so we should not be confused by this. It is said that generals should have thunder in their chest and faces like flat lakes. But if we want to reach the highest level, we should be the opposite, with a thunder in our face and hearts like flat lakes. Only in this way can we predict the enemy's initiative and defeat the enemy and win!"

After hearing Zhou Tong's advice, Sun Tu suddenly fell into deep thought. After a while, he looked up and said, "Disciple has been taught. I was indeed too pretentious before, and I did violate the taboo of learning martial arts."

Seeing that he had indeed understood the true meaning of his words, Zhou Tong smiled with satisfaction: "Your understanding is indeed very high. Often, I can understand it with just a few tips. It's a pity... your mind cannot be completely focused on martial arts, otherwise you can really inherit my mantle." As he said, he sighed and shook his head repeatedly.

Sun Tu did not take the other party's words at this time, but just smiled apologetically at his master. Indeed, he did not devote himself to martial arts practice, because he did not think he was a person in the martial arts world. Learning martial arts is just to increase his own bargaining chips. For him, seeking a higher position is the importance of this life.

After all, reality is not a martial arts novel, and it is not a person who can be free and fearless with martial arts. Only by holding great power and becoming an important minister of the court can he truly control his own destiny.

Zhou Tong also understood Sun Tu's ambition, so he did not force it too much. After sighing a few words, he asked Sun Tu to take a stick to him and practice it with him and give him some advice.

Throughout the whole day, Sun Tu stayed at Zhou Tong and practiced hard until after dark, he took Ya'er back to his house after dinner.

When they arrived at the entrance of their alley, they found that there was a carriage parked there, and there were several wealthy slaves dressed in it. As soon as they saw them come back, the few people quickly came forward: "Sun Guanren really makes it easy for the young people to wait." Although he said this, there was no complaint in his tone.

Sun Tu glanced at the lantern beside the car, and saw the big word "Children" and said curiously: "Tong Shuai summoned the officials at night and didn't know what was going on?"

"My master asked me to go to the public security office to find officials in the afternoon, but there said that you are not here for something, so the villain can only come here to wait." The slave in the head smiled bitterly and said, "But the master said, you must let the officials go to the mansion to see you today, so..."

When Sun Tu heard this, he quickly bowed his hand to apologize, so he took Ya'er home first. After washing and changing his clothes, he got on the carriage they prepared for him and headed towards the Tong family. Speaking of which, today's treatment is really extraordinary. In the past, Tong Guan did not send someone to take him with a carriage.

When he arrived at Tong's Mansion, Sun Tu was taken to Tong Guan's study room without waiting. As soon as the latter saw him, he smiled and said, "Qianli, you really want me to wait."

"Tong Shuai is forgiven. I really don't know that you will be summoned to you today, so I went to the north of the city to learn martial arts." Sun Tu quickly bowed his head and apologized.

"Oh? Qianli, your martial arts skills are already good. Do you want to become a disciple? It's really admirable." Tong Guan smiled, but did not go into the matter. After all, as he is, he has long since lost his mind on martial arts and so on.

After the servants gave the tea soup introduction and the two exchanged some greetings, Tong Guan slowly brought the topic to the right track: "Qianli, you have made many contributions to the court over the past few days. Whether it was the Breaking Swallows and defeating the Liao people on the Cuju field, and in addition, they had taken action to save Ambassador Chen in the Liao people's embassy before, although some people deliberately concealed these things, most of the people in the court still saw them and the officials also understood them. Your contribution is really great."

"Tong Shuai praised it. This is what the subordinates should do. Since I am a minister of the Song Dynasty, I will be loyal to the emperor." Sun Tu looked calm on the surface and answered quite appropriately, but in fact he was already a little excited.

Why did Tong Guan suddenly summon him and deliberately ask someone to stay in front of the house? Now he has said these words of praise? Obviously, this is to promote himself.

Tong Guan was quite satisfied with Sun Tu's answer, so he nodded and said, "Although you are right, the court cannot make contributions and not reward the hearts of the people of the world. This time, the official issued an order for our Privy Council to carefully promote and apply it to you. Of course, I have to listen to your own meaning. Do I still remember that you once asked me to lead the army and train?"

"That's right, Xia Guan had this ambition when he was young, and he had read several military books later. I felt that my Song army was weak, so..." Sun Tu suddenly became nervous. This was the opportunity he had been waiting for.
