"Sir, you flatter me. I'm well aware of my limited talents and shallow learning; I have nothing but a bit of martial strength to my name. If we speak of defending the territory and protecting the people, of restoring order to Lingnan, it's all thanks to Sir's strategic planning and direction."
Zhao Jian burst into hearty laughter, exuding a spirit of boldness.
After exchanging pleasantries with Lu Qingfeng, he straightened his face and finally got to the heart of the matter, "Sir must know that I, Zhao Jian, hail from the Zhao family. More than a thousand years ago, we were among the Six Kings of the great Da Xu, with my ancestors reigning as the King of Lingnan. Through many changes and upheavals, members of my Zhao family have emerged as remarkable individuals, some even ascending to the highest officialdom."
Indeed, the Zhao family of Lingnan wielded no small amount of influence.
