"You should pay attention to Wei Xiaohong." Bai Xiaocui said.
Jiang Fan said: "I didn't neglect her, I took her with me wherever I went."
Bai Xiaocui looked at him: "You never trusted her from the beginning."
Jiang Fan said: "I am timid and afraid of getting into trouble, so I am very suspicious."
Bai Xiaocui said: "So you sent her to see Cao Zijian?"
Jiang Fan laughed and said: "How appropriate. Cao Wei, Cao Wei, we are a family, easy to communicate with."
Bai Xiaocui didn't seem to understand Cao Wei's family very well, so she didn't ask further questions and suggested two more names: "Wang Chengxiu and Meng Chanjuan."
"Not just the two of them." Jiang Fan clapped his fingers: "There are also Jin, Feng, Jade, Lu, Manager Wang, Ding Shaoan..."
Bai Xiaocui said: "You are really tired from your life."
Jiang Fan grimaced: "What can I do? No one can worry about it."
One of them drank tea, the other drank, both of them were silent.
The red spots on Bai Xiaocui's face still showed no sign of fading away. If Jiang Fan had not seen her true appearance before, he would never have imagined that she would be the same person.
Seeing that he kept staring at her face, Bai Xiaocui said: "It looks good outside."
"No, you're the prettiest." Jiang Fan said it instantly without thinking.
Bai Xiaocui's hand holding the wine glass couldn't help but pause slightly.
Jiang Fan suddenly came to his senses and said with a smile: "Really, you used to be very good-looking. I've seen you before."
"You mean it doesn't look good now?"
Jiang Fan's heart suddenly skipped a beat. Sure enough, there was no difference in the way women found fault in this matter. He quickly denied it: "No way, no way, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, you always look good."
"Xi Shi?"
Jiang Fan patted his head: "Oh, she is a beautiful woman from our hometown. We use her as an analogy when we praise our wives there."
Bai Xiaocui thought for a while: "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, this is interesting. Am I your lover?"
This question is not easy to answer, so Jiang Fan quickly laughed: "I'm just making an analogy, just an analogy."
Seeing that Bai Xiaocui was still staring at him, Jiang Fan quickly changed the subject: "You don't remember what you looked like before, how about I draw it for you?"
Bai Xiaocui was silent for a while and said, "You can try it."
Jiang Fan suddenly became excited and asked her to wait. He went outside to tinker for a while, then walked in with a piece of charcoal and a piece of white paper.
"Just sit down and I'll show you the painting after I finish it."
Jiang Fan started painting excitedly.
It's just that the fact that he used charcoal to draw was obviously beyond Bai Xiaocui's expectation. Although he was a little surprised, he didn't ask because there were so many weird things about Jiang Xiaolang.
Jiang Fan revised it for half an hour, then threw down the charcoal with a sigh: "I can't draw the charm of a lady."
Bai Xiaocui said: "It's enough to be able to write poetry, why do you need to be able to paint as well."
Jiang Fan crumpled the white paper into a ball and threw it into the trash can: "That's right, forget it, if it's not that piece of material, it's better to sing about the wind and the moon."
After he left, Bai Xiaocui sat for a while, then slowly stood up, picked up the ball dropped by Jiang Fan, and slowly unfolded it. A strange light passed through her eyes, and then she showed an intriguing look.
The craze brought by Mr. Jiang continues to ferment, and Paradise City is becoming more and more lively these days. Although Jiang Fan did not leave home, he learned a lot from Ding Shaoan's description, and at the same time he became more and more impressed by the uniqueness of Paradise City.
This place is known as the land of red powder and bones, which sounds like it can eat people without spitting out the bones, but it has prosperity that is not found in the outside world, and is even safer than most cities. Recently, except for the two groups who came to Jinyu Tower to cause trouble and were hanged there, there have been no other incidents that violated the rules of Paradise City.
However, this calm was quickly broken.
On this day, a piece of news caused an uproar in the city: Mr. Liu Changqing, a famous figure in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, hanged himself in an inn room at night.
Some people think that Liu Changqing can't bear the humiliation and can't think about it. But then Nangong Xin cried bitterly at the Baihua Tower about the death of his best friend, claiming that there must be a hidden reason for Liu Changqing's death.
The suspicion is that Mr. Liu left a suicide note, claiming repeatedly that Jiang Feng did not plagiarize, but that he was jealous and stirring up trouble. He begged Mr. Jiang to forgive him. He was responsible for everything, and he had committed his own sins. He asked Mr. Jiang not to vent his anger on others. The words are earnest and frightening.
Nangong Xin claimed that Mr. Liu had something to say while drinking a few days ago, and he had sent a letter to his family members carrying the manuscript of Magpie Bridge Immortal. However, not long after, Mr. Liu came looking for him in a panic, saying that he had received a letter and the courier sent by his family was missing. This suicide note clearly revealed that Liu Changqing might have been coerced. Although he didn't tell the truth, everyone couldn't understand, so they just told Jiang Feng what he did.
Soon, Lin Nanyan from Baihualou came forward to confirm that Liu Changqing came to her every day for the two days before his death. He was worried and worried. Lin Nanyan was a strong-willed person and pointed out in no uncertain terms that Jiang Feng did not know what means he used to threaten Mr. Liu, resulting in his unjust death. She is bound to find out the truth and avenge Mr. Liu.
Lin Nanyan is a member of the Thirteen Hairpins, and her words directly increase her credibility.
When she came forward, Nangong Xin immediately announced in a high-profile manner that he would catch the murderer and publicly offered a huge reward for evidence.
Not long ago, someone came to the door and claimed that Jiang Feng had a group of murderers lurking in Paradise City, acting secretly and without knowing what they wanted.
The news was soon confirmed, and Nangong Xin paid a lot of money to buy information. The true identities of these nine people were the notorious Black Mountain Nine Bears in Laojiling, Daheishan, a group of powerful mountain bandits.
As a scribe, why did Jiang Feng get involved with a group of vicious bandits? Could it be that Jiang Feng was really the murderer who forced Liu Changqing to death? Or maybe this Mr. Jiang, whose origin is unknown, is not a kind person himself?
Everything became more and more clear, and Jiang Feng could never get rid of the relationship. Although Liu Changqing was a celebrity in the literary world of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Liu family could not be called a first-class wealthy family. His death was not a big deal originally, but it became quite significant when it was associated with this new poet saint.
Paradise City, a lawless place, has never been afraid of excitement, and the troublemakers began to ask Jiang Feng for an explanation.
Nangong Xin wrote an open letter, imploring the city guards to make the decision. He said that although weapons were banned in Paradise City, someone was secretly harming him. He asked the city guards to take down the suspect Jiang Feng for interrogation and return the truth to the public.
Obviously everyone has seen that this series of events is directed at Jiang Feng, the Northern Ci Sage. Many people couldn't help but sigh that if it was indeed Jiang Feng, his writing style and character were completely different.
Next, the reaction of the City Lord's Mansion became something that everyone was eagerly awaiting. Capture Jiang Feng, or simply drive him out of Paradise City to maintain his reputation?
Soon, news came out from the City Guards that Liu Changqing had indeed hanged himself. No matter what the reason was, it was not under the jurisdiction of the City Guards, leaving Nangong Xin to deal with it on his own.
This reaction is not unexpected. Paradise City has always been like this, just committing suicide. Paradise City has no rules that do not allow suicide, so of course it is ignored.
Nangong Xin was greatly saddened and declared that he was willing to offer a reward of 10,000 taels of silver to avenge his close friend. And soon, a piece of shocking news came out, and the killer Lu Sanqi took over the order.
