Great Martial Arts Auxiliary System

Chapter 822
Take the Shangguan family as an example. For nearly a thousand years, the overall strength has remained constant. After maintaining a certain level, it has never improved.

Since the first Duke of the Shangguan family passed away, the overall strength of the Shangguan family has declined in an instant.
Immediately, the trend has not changed for a thousand years.

Although the Shangguan family has not weakened because of this, on the contrary, for thousands of years, it has been the No. [-] family of Dayu and the No. [-] family of the military.

However, the strength has not increased for a long time, and the background is far behind other hermit families.

As for why they have been able to control the name of the first family of the Dayu Dynasty, it is only because of the power of the Dayu Dynasty and the power of the military that no one dares to provoke the Shangguan family.

But forging iron still needs to be hard by itself. If it continues like this, after another thousand years, thousands of years, will the Shangguan family still be able to live on their strength?

If you fall behind, you will be beaten!

In the same way, if a family has been stagnant, as time goes by, it will naturally be gradually surpassed by the latecomers.

Such a big problem, don't the ancestors of the Shangguan family know about it?
Don't the ancestors of the Shangguan family not want to improve their own strength?
Obviously, it must not be the case!

Apart from its own reasons, the Shangguan family's stagnation in strength is nothing more than the reason behind the restrictions of the royal family.

However, in general, even if the royal family restricts the Shangguan family, at most it only limits the military power of the Shangguan family on the surface, making the Shangguan family lose power in the military.

Other means of restriction are basically negligible for the Shangguan family.

After all, besides the Shangguan family, Yucheng also has the other seven major kingdoms. It is impossible for the royal family to restrict other aspects of the Shangguan family after the military suppressed the Shangguan family.

Public anger is hard to offend, and the royal family still understands this truth clearly.

The biggest reason why the strength of the Shangguan family has not improved much in the past thousand years lies in itself.

For a long time, the influence of the Shangguan family has been limited to the military forces of Dayu.

However, Dayu's military power has reached a saturated peak period since the time of Emperor Xuanyuan.

May I ask how many dynasties whose military strength in the middle and late stages can be compared with that at the beginning of the founding of the country?

Therefore, because of the consistent advocacy of the Shangguan family, their entire family has fallen into a dead end.

As a result, its own power has been kept at a certain level.

But what Shangguan Qiuyu needs to do now is to break the inertia of the Shangguan family, to cut open the wall that traps the dead end of the Shangguan family, so that the Shangguan family can come out and break this inertia.

Therefore, developing one's own alchemists and blacksmiths has become a top priority.

After all, in this world where martial arts are flourishing, pills are often necessary for warriors, so the importance of alchemists is self-evident.

The main strength of the Shangguan family comes from the army. Only by maintaining a strong army can the Shangguan family be able to deal with all powerful enemies.

In this way, the importance of blacksmiths is also self-evident.

After all, a good set of equipment can directly increase the combat power of the army by a few percent, and its importance is obvious.

The conversation between the two completely stunned Nangong Muxue on the side. At the same time, she couldn't help but wonder whether Shangguan Qiuyu's words were true or not.

From Shangguan Qiuyu's words, the little girl in front of him, who was much younger than him, turned out to be a genius who combined alchemy and forging skills.

This conclusion made Nangong Muxue speechless.

He wanted to speak several times, but was interrupted by Shangguan Qiuyu's seriousness.

She was very aware of Shangguan Qiuyu's disposition, even though he seemed a little out of tune on weekdays.

However, as a human being, he seldom speaks big words, basically when others seem to think it is impossible or should not be.

In the end, he can always be convincing, and he is still the kind of convincing.

Therefore, while Nangong Muxue was surprised by the exchange of interests between Shangguan Qiuyu and Xiao Linger, she also listened very carefully.

Although she didn't doubt Shangguan Qiuyu's words, when she saw Xiao Ling'er's immature face, she felt a little unbelievable and couldn't help but feel suspicious.

After Xiao Ling'er left the living room dejectedly.

After a long time, Nangong Muxue looked at Shangguan Qiuyu seriously, and asked:
"Is it true what you just said?"

Hearing the disbelief in Nangong Muxue's tone, Shangguan Qiuyu naturally knew what the other party was suspicious of, so he smiled and said:
"Why? Cousin, don't you believe it, or can't you believe it?"

"I can't believe it," Nangong Mu Xue gave him a white look, and exhaled.

"Sit" Shangguan Qiuyu smiled and motioned Nangong Muxue to sit closer.

Seeing Shangguan Qiuyu signaling her to get closer, Nangong Muxue hesitated for a moment, and finally leaned over.

However, for some reason in my heart, my inexplicable heartbeat quickened a bit.

At this moment, she has long since lost her previous arrogance.

Seeing Shangguan Qiuyu staring at her without speaking, Nangong Muxue's ears couldn't help but turn red, and then, with a serious face, she stared at him and said in a low voice:

"What are you looking at, tell me quickly, why do you want your cousin to go back to southern Xinjiang? Do you have any ulterior motives?"

There was no way, she couldn't stand Shangguan Qiuyu's strange eyes, and kept staring at her.

Seeing Nangong Muxue being a little shy, Shangguan Qiuyu shrugged, shook his head and said with a wry smile:

"Can I have any ulterior motives? You saw it just now. Didn't Linger also send her back to southern Xinjiang with Shiluo?"

'Uh' Regarding this, Nangong Muxue tilted her head and thought for a while, not knowing how to attack.

'Huh' However, seeing Shangguan Qiuyu's indifferent look, he immediately snorted coldly:
"Who knows if you have anyone else outside."

After finishing speaking, Nangong Muxue regretted it, because she found that she seemed to be a bit lenient, but it was hard to take back what she had said.

"Others? Who?" Shangguan Qiuyu asked a little bewildered by him.

Seeing that Nangong Muxue didn't say anything, Shangguan Qiuyu shook his head, and then said in a deep voice:
"The reason why I asked my cousin to go back to southern Xinjiang with Shiluo is because there will be a big change in Yucheng soon.

For the sake of Shiluo's safety, I just want her to leave Yucheng for a while.

Moreover, Shi Luo didn't go back to fetch water, but went directly to the Shangguan family's fiefdom. Where there are my Shangguan family's private soldiers, there is no problem with safety, so I don't worry. "

Said, Shangguan Qiuyu hesitated for a moment, then frowned and said:
"If my cousin doesn't want to go back with Shiluo, I won't force her.

However, I have to remind my cousin that if you don't want to leave, then go back to the National Academy. If there is nothing wrong, it is best not to go to the National Academy for half a step in the second half of the year. "

For Nangong Muxue, Shangguan Qiuyu has always respected her, not only because she is Nangong Shiluo's cousin.

At the same time, it was also because she was sincere to her cousin Nangong Shiluo, and there was no falsehood in it.

Therefore, he would kindly remind him.

As for whether Nangong Muxue listened or not, that was her own business. Shangguan Qiuyu didn't have time to worry about other people's affairs.
