In a certain house in the city, a man walked quietly through the night, came to the door of a study, knocked on the door and walked in.
"My lord, Xia Jingyun did not enter the capital directly. The methods in the capital did not work, but the people arranged at Chunfengyi ran into him."
"Um."
The man smiled and said, "Speaking of which, that Yang San was a bit brave. He felt that Young Master Shi didn't hate Xia Jingyun enough. He was afraid that he would not be able to complete his mission, so he actually broke off a finger. As expected, Young Master Shi immediately became red-eyed. , I have to fight Xia Jingyun desperately."
"Yes, this matter is settled and I will give you a generous reward. Is there anything else?"
"Subordinates resign!"
After the man left, the man sitting in front of the desk picked up the book and read for a while, then suddenly put the book down and said: "After Shi Zijun and Xia Jingyun have another conflict, kill that Yang San and don't leave any traces."
In the empty room, a calm reply sounded, "Here!"
——
In Chunfengyi, Su Yuanshang looked at Xia Jingyun and sighed.
"You! I don't even know what to say about you!"
"If I had known you were so capable of causing trouble, we would have gone straight to the city!"
Xia Jingyun smiled sheepishly, "It's not me who's causing trouble, it's the trouble that's causing me."
He looked at Su Yuanshang, who had a serious look on his face, "But from another perspective, Mr. Su's goal of making me famous has been achieved! Look, after Mr. Shi left just now, everyone was chatting around me. Well!"
"You can comfort yourself."
Su Yuanshang glanced at him speechlessly and knocked on the table, "Master of the Ministry of Rites! Although Chunwei relied on his true talent and practical knowledge, you have offended the Master of the Minister of Rites to death. If people really want to torment you, they can't always do it. Found something, you were really reckless this time.”
Xia Jingyun chuckled, "It doesn't matter, I have so many enemies, I don't care if I have one more, at worst I will fall in love with Mr. Yuhu!"
Su Yuanshang twitched the corner of his mouth. He is a ferocious imperial tiger, but you are like your thug.
But he could also see along the way that Jiang Yuhu really admired Xia Jingyun. If Xia Jingyun really had something to do, Jiang Yuhu really wouldn't ignore it.
Coupled with the help of Concubine De and the help of the Su family, a minister of the Ministry of Etiquette will offend him.
What's more, from deep in his heart, Xia Jingyun's actions, although very unwise from a utilitarian point of view, inexplicably made him identify more with the person in front of him.
"The other one is now in Beijing, and many things have to be officially put on the agenda."
Su Yuanshang placed a few peas on the table and twisted the first one, "Lu Yi, what are you going to do?"
Xia Jingyun rubbed his eyebrows and said, "It depends on his own wishes. After he comes out of the underground world, he must let people live a stable life."
"Isn't your judgment just a failure to respect other people's wishes?" Su Yuanshang smiled, "I have talked with Lu Yi, and his character and ability are actually very suitable for that environment. There are many strange people and strange things in the market. At the same time, it is also an excellent source of information and intelligence. If you want to achieve great things, don’t give up in this regard.”
Xia Jingyun naturally knew this, but he was not sure about Lu Yi's thoughts. The life of being a big brother sounded pleasant, but with the knife licking blood, enemies on all sides, and having trouble sleeping, it was not that he wanted Lu Yi to follow him. The life to live after.
He thought for a while and called Lu Yi in.
Why spend so much time thinking about it? Why not just call and ask?
Xia Jingyun first told Su Yuanshang's thoughts, and then said with a smile: "Don't have any worries. If you don't want to live like that, I also have a good place to go."
Lu nodded and said, "Before today, I would have been a little hesitant. Brother Su was right before. My temperament and abilities are actually suitable for opening up territory for you in the world. But for things like this, It is inevitable that some people will not be able to get on the stage. If you grow up in the future, due to reputation and other considerations, I will probably be the first to be abandoned."
He looked at Xia Jingyun, "But after tonight, I don't have this worry anymore, or I dare to bet on the future."
He smiled easily, with a bold and free smile, "I have heard that there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the capital. Brother Su is accompanying the young master in the officialdom, so I will go to the market and meet them well."
The relationship between Xia Jingyun and Lu Yi has always been simple and direct, "Okay, I will fully support you behind the scenes."
Lu Yi blinked, "I'm not used to a man standing behind me. Go support your women."
Su Yuanshang couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and Xia Jingyun said speechlessly: "Mr. Su is right, you really can't get on the stage!"
Lu Yi chuckled twice, stood up and left.
Su Yuanshang picked up the second pea and said, "Chen Fugui, please let him be by your side. As his family member, you have to think about picking it up for him."
Xia Jingyun thought for a while, "I'll ask him after he settles down tomorrow to see if he would like to bring his family here or stay in Sishui Prefecture. If he stays in Sishui Prefecture, he can let my master, parents and others take care of him."
Su Yuanshang raised his head and looked directly at him. Xia Jingyun shook his head, "No need. I believe in his loyalty and won't have to use such means."
Su Yuanshang nodded and continued to pick up another pea. Just as he was about to speak, another thing suddenly occurred to his mind.
"Our previous plans were all based on the close cooperation between De Concubine and you. What if De Concubine changes her attitude after returning to Beijing?"
Xia Jingyun thought for a while, "From a utilitarian perspective, this is unrealistic. After all, I have been proving my worth and it has also brought benefits to her. From an emotional analysis, I believe in my sister's character."
He smiled, "And no matter what, we will see the result tomorrow, right?"
Su Yuanshang hummed, "That's right, let's continue."
The night was getting dark, and the lights in the inn room were gradually extinguished. Only the solitary lamp in their room was like a bean, accompanied by the low voices of people.
The next day, Xia Jingyun yawned and walked out of the room, and happened to meet Bai Yunbian who was also going out.
Without the maid accompanying him, Bai Yunbian's energy was obviously much better when he got up every day. His eyes moved back and forth on Xia Jingyun's face.
Xia Jingyun touched his face, "What's wrong? Are there flowers on my face?"
"Are you hiding a woman in the house?"
Xia Jingyun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Did you hear anything last night?"
"did not hear it."
"Fuck, you really listened!"
The two of them laughed and walked down, and Bai Yunbian suddenly muttered quickly, "Thank you for last night."
Xia Jingyun dug his ears, "What? I didn't hear clearly?"
Bai Yun stopped and glared at him, "I can solve it myself!"
"Yes, yes. I'm just meddling in other people's business."
"That's not true." Bai Yunbian explained quickly, but immediately reacted to Xia Jingyun's narrow eyes. He stretched out his feet to kick, but Xia Jingyun dodged him, almost twisted his waist, and walked away angrily.
Xia Jingyun walked towards the lobby with a chuckle, and suddenly understood why Jiang Yuhu liked to "tease" Mr. Bai so much.
Along the way, the officials he met all saluted him respectfully, not only because of his Jieyuan status, but also because of his ability to defy power and defeat it, which was really in line with the temperament and cognition of these young people. .
To a certain extent, Su Yuanshang's goal of becoming famous has been achieved.
In the lobby of the inn, the guards of the Bai family were standing. When they saw Xia Jingyun, they all clasped their fists and bowed deeply.
The leader of the guard said seriously: "Mr.
Xia Jingyun smiled and helped him up, "We are walking together all the way. We are supporting each other and we have no sleeves to watch. This is a serious statement."
Chen Fugui and others looked at Xia Jingyun with more and more respect from the bottom of their hearts.
"Okay, everyone, let's not delay and enter the capital!"
"yes!"
Everyone packed their luggage, led their horses, and then walked out of Chunfeng Inn together.
Yi Cheng watched them leave and stroked his chest with lingering fear, "Finally they left."
A postman beside him whispered: "Did they forget to pay?"
Yi Cheng's face froze, and he immediately kicked him, "Then why are you standing there in a daze? Why don't you hurry up and chase after me!"
"Sir, do you think I dare to go?"
"Then you fucking look at me like I dare to go?"
The two of them stared at each other, and Yi Cheng sighed, "Forget it, that's it. Mr. Shi didn't give any money last night, and these two didn't give any money today, these stupid powerful children."
He was kicked by the postman suddenly, and he glared angrily, "You fucking coward!"
The postman quietly pointed in the direction of the door, and the scar-faced guard beside Mr. Xia walked in. He smiled and put a piece of broken silver on the table, "Sorry, I forgot to pay. Thank you for your hospitality. See you later."
After saying that, without waiting for the two of them to speak, they turned around and strode away.
The postman looked at the broken piece of silver on the table, and then at the people who were leaving. Thinking that last night Mr. Xia was willing to offend Mr. Shangshu for a little guard, he sighed: "This Xia Jieyuan seems to be different from other powerful people. .”
Yi Cheng touched his chin, "Such a person goes to a place that eats people without spitting out their bones. I don't know if it's good or bad!"
After walking up the official road for less than a hundred steps, Xia Jingyun and his party were startled by the battle in front of them.
I saw dozens of tables, large and small, on both sides of the official road outside Chunfeng Yi.
A banner was put up on every table with the name of XX Inn written on it.
When they saw so many people like Xia Jingyun coming, they immediately knew that they were big customers. People rushed over to almost every table. There were about dozens of people, surrounding them and shouting at the same time.
"Sir! Do you want to stay at the hotel? Our Yuelai Inn is a century-old brand with good prices and good quality. We are good at treating young adults!"
"Young Master lives here, our Hongfu Inn,"
"Sir, we have hidden dragons and crouching tigers at Tongfu Inn. Even the cashier is a scholar. Living here guarantees that your literary thoughts will flow like a spring, and your spring will be like a divine blessing!"
Xia Jingyun and everyone else, except Su Yuanshang, were dumbfounded.
Is this Zhongjing City?
