Zixun looked at Yu Zhi who suddenly stood up and was at a loss.
"Sir, what's wrong with you?"
It's obvious that the arrow is ready.
Yu Zhi shook his head to wake himself up a little, and then said, "Sorry, I already have a sweetheart."
Unexpectedly, Zixun smiled slightly and said nonchalantly: "The young men who come to Yihong Mansion all have lovely wives at home, but what right do we and other women from the brothel have to care?"
Zi Xun's eyes were charming and her voice was full of temptation.
"Is it because the young master looks down on Zixun? Or does he dislike Zixun's background?"
The women in Yihong Mansion would pretend to be weak like this, which made the young masters feel pity.
Since you have a sweetheart, why should you push the door open and come in?
Is the little guy still playing hard-to-get tricks?
What Zixun didn't know was that Yu Zhi just wanted to come in and take a look.
Yu Zhi didn't answer, and Zixun's words didn't touch him at all.
There is no such thing as disdain or disgust.
Seeing that Yu Zhi was still standing there blankly, Zixun cried, "In that case, Master, you'd better leave!"
Yu Zhi frowned, not thinking this was a good idea.
He flatly refused: "If I go out now, people will look down on me. If I don't do it right, I will get a bad reputation."
"A bad reputation?" Zixun asked doubtfully.
Yu Zhi glanced at Zixun and said matter-of-factly: "That's right. After entering Miss Zixun's room, she came out half the time it took to burn the incense. If this was spread, people would definitely say that I'm a silver lining. Pewter spear point.”
Zi Xun's little face turned red under her veil, and she laughed and cursed: "Rogue."
Yu Zhi extinguished the incense and changed from his timid behavior before.
He walked towards Zixun and lay on the bed minding his own business, "It's a long night. Please give me a squeeze on my waist and beat my legs, Miss Zixun."
Zixun was stunned, is this person sick?
"Young master, are you sure you want to do this? A spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold, but tonight it is worth twenty thousand taels of silver."
Yu Zhi said nonchalantly: "You're not spending my money, why do you feel bad?"
"The flower boat..." Zixun asked.
"No, no. Just stay here tonight.".
Yu Zhi was like an old man, waiting for Zixun to squeeze his waist and beat his legs. The boiling blood all over his body has calmed down a lot.
...
In the early morning, Qiu Ruoruo did not see Yu Zhi at Qiu's house. She asked the guard at the door and found out that Yu Zhi had not returned home last night.
"Brother Xiaoyu is really..."
Just when Qiu Ruoruo was angry, Yu Zhi walked into the gate of Qiu Mansion with a bag of buns in his hand.
"Qiuqiu, try the buns you just bought."
Qiu Ruoruo looked at Yu Zhi with evil eyes, as if she wanted to torture him to extract a confession, and asked: "Brother Xiaoyu, where did you go last night?"
Spent the night at Yihong Tower.
Qiu Ruoruo must not let Qiu Ruoruo know about this.
Seeing that something was wrong, Yu Zhi stuffed the bun into Qiu Ruoruo's arms and ran towards the east courtyard.
"Qiuqiu, the old man is looking for me, I will take the first step."
In the east courtyard, Qiu Jinfeng got up early, dressed in white brocade, holding a sword in his hand, waving it constantly. Old people always like these things.
Yu Zhi didn't bother him and just watched.
After burning the incense, Qiu Jinfeng put away his sword and wiped the sweat from his head, "Why are you looking for me so early in the morning?"
Yu Zhi complained: "Is it your intention for the errand assigned to me by Mr. Jiang?"
Qiu Jinfeng did not deny it. He sat at the stone table and ate the still warm white porridge.
Yu Zhi knew in his heart that this must be Qiu Jinfeng's intention, otherwise how could Jiang Qing give such a task to a small official like himself.
On Cangshan Mountain in Beiliang Mansion, the mountain owner was only half a step away from entering the realm of a master.
Once you step into the Grand Master, Cangshan will become different, and even the royal family should treat it with caution.
"Aren't you pushing me into the fire pit?" Yu Zhi said. "I can't afford to offend a sect like Cangshan. You'd better talk to Mr. Jiang and find someone else."
For the bitter water that Yu Zhi fell into, the strong autumn wind went in with his left ear and came out with his right ear.
After finishing a bowl of white porridge, the old man who had been hanging around in the court for decades finally spoke.
"This matter must be done by you. Just because of the mission, you won an official position, which is not enough. There are already quite a few complaints in the court. So, there happens to be an errand in the north, you go and do it."
"If it's done, the official position under your butt will be secure."
"If you can't do it, no one will blame you. If you want to check Cangshan, even Jiang Qing can't do it."
When Yu Zhi heard this, he felt half relieved. "Is this true?"
Qiu Jinfeng continued: "Seriously. In the past twenty years, the sects in Beiliang Mansion have lost their respect for Chu. It would be a good thing if we can use this matter to beat them."
What Qiu Jinfeng wanted to borrow was not Yu Zhi's hand, but the hand of Li Haomiao behind Yu Zhi.
A master of swordsmanship is enough to frighten the sects of Beiliang Mansion.
But what Qiu Jinfeng didn't know was that Li Haomiao had left Kyoto long ago. This killing with a borrowed knife will never work.
After hearing this, Yu Zhi felt something was wrong in his heart.
I have no choice but to attack these sects? Isn't this a joke?
Yu Zhi has a very clear understanding of himself. Who am I? The shame of asking. If this name can shock those sects that have been passed down for thousands of years, he will not have to work hard to wash away this shame.
After a while, Yu Zhi left the east courtyard.
In a few days, we will leave Kyoto.
Taking advantage of these few days, Yu Zhi still has some things to do.
To take Li Wantong with him, Yu Zhi must ensure the safety of the trip.
...
In the palace, the Emperor of Dachu, wearing a dragon robe... was sitting in front of the chessboard. The endgame in front of him took him more than half a year, but he still couldn't break it.
Black and white stones are intertwined, occupying a piece of territory, and every move will affect the whole body.
Those who make a move have to be cautious.
This seemingly peaceful chess game is just like the world back then, with turbulent undercurrents behind the calm.
At this time, the eunuch An Fuzhi walked in and said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wishes to see you."
Emperor Chu fiddled with a white stone in his hand and seemed to be saying to himself: "Prince? What is he doing here? Let him in."
Xiao Jingyao walked into the main hall and saluted respectfully: "My son, I would like to pay my respects to my father."
"No courtesy." Emperor Chu waved his hand, "Jingyao, come and take a look at this game."
Xiao Jingyao sat opposite Emperor Chu, looking at the black and white stones on the chessboard, his brows furrowed more and more.
"My son is too stupid to figure out this chess game."
Emperor Chu smiled nonchalantly and said, "That's all. It's normal that you can't figure it out. What's the reason for coming to the palace today?"
Xiao Jingyao was the first child of Emperor Chu before he became the emperor. At the beginning, he was just an idle prince. He was no match for his brothers when it came to power, and he had no intention of fighting for power in his heart.
Therefore, when Xiao Jingyao was young, the relationship between father and son was the best.
Now that he became the Emperor of Chu, the Emperor of Chu also had a certain preference for Xiao Jingyao and directly handed over the position of prince to Xiao Jingyao.
Xiao Jingyao saluted again, "The negotiations between Dachu and Prairie Wolf Court have been completed. Regarding the opening of the horse farm, I will go north to share my father's worries."
Emperor Chu looked at Xiao Jingyao leisurely. After the dust settled on the racecourse, many people came to ask for this job.
The Emperor of Chu, who was in a high position, somewhat understood the thoughts of these ministers.
There is so much oil and water in this huge horse farm that these people are greedy.
Otherwise, how could these guys who spend their days enjoying themselves in Kyoto be willing to go to that bitter cold place in the north?
What made Emperor Chu curious was that his son had never been interested in these things, so why did he take the initiative to ask for this job this time?
