The next morning.
Jiang Wang hasn't woken up yet.
The door of the house was pushed open by Xiaoyu.
She walked straight to the bed and reached out to lift the quilt.
Jiang Wang opened his eyes drowsily, "What are you doing?"
Xiaoyu's face was cold and he said calmly: "Old Xu Tou has something to do with the young master."
Jiang Wang turned over and lay down, being served by Xiaoyu and dressed neatly. With sleepy eyes, he said lazily: "The clothes at home are enough, and there is nothing urgent that requires new clothes. Why is Lao Xu here here?"
Xiaoyu didn't say anything, just carried the sword on his back and held it in his arms. When Jiang Wang stepped out of the door, he closed the door smoothly.
In front of the gate of Xunyang Houfu.
Lao Xu's head was spinning with anxiety.
When he saw Jiang Wang's figure, he ran over excitedly, "I found it, I found it!"
Jiang Wang half-opened his eyes and asked casually: "What did you find?"
Old Xu Tou said: "I found your wife!"
Jiang Wang: "..."
Sleepiness completely disappeared.
He almost forgot about it.
Old Xu Tou said excitedly: "My dear patron, no, it's so beautiful. It definitely meets your requirements. We can't find it in the whole city of Hun."
Jiang Wang was speechless.
You have said everything in your heart. I am afraid that the girl opposite gave you a lot of money, right?
Lao Xutou directly pulled Jiang Wang toward the outside of Qixia Street, with Xiaoyu following closely behind.
"It's fate. That girl is not from Huncheng. She was wandering on the street and I saw her right away. My eyes are so poisonous. I only saw her back and thought she must be very beautiful. Sure enough, she is really like a fairy. It’s like being banished to the mortal world.”
Lao Xutou is very talented as a matchmaker. Before the two parties even meet, he praises the person to the sky.
"It took me all my strength to persuade the girl to be willing to meet. Facts have proved that I was not doing it for money. None of the girls are from Huncheng. Who knows who the young marquis is? You can't do it again. You have wronged me.”
Hearing this, Jiang Wang was stunned for a moment.
If it is true as Old Xutou said, there is really no reason for a girl from outside the family to pay for a matchmaker. Even the girl was not willing in the first place. She was forcefully deceived by Old Xutou with his smooth tongue.
But looking at Lao Xutou's excited look, Jiang Wang still felt that something was wrong.
What the truth is, it will become clear when we meet.
The meeting place arranged by Lao Xutou was not in Qixia Street.
But in Nancheng Lane, which is a street away.
Nancheng Alley is currently the busiest street in the area south of Huncheng.
There are many shops and the streets are full of people.
Jiang Wang was slightly out of breath, pulled Lao Xu's head, looked at the tea shop on one side, and said, "I'm tired, just stay here."
Lao Xutou hesitated for a moment, knowing that Jiang Wang was not in good health, so he nodded in agreement, "Then I'll go get someone."
Jiang Wang took Xiaoyu into the tea shop and sat by the window.
A storyteller was telling stories in a tea shop that the tea guests were tired of hearing.
But because the storyteller tells it vividly and interestingly, even if he knows the story by heart, he can still make people listen with interest. This is his ability.
There was no long wait.
Lao Xutou then led a girl to the tea shop.
The girl looked young, wearing a long green dress, and looked at the tea shop curiously with a pair of big, lively eyes, as if she had never seen the world.
But the appearance is indeed as old Xu Tou said, probably even comparable to Jiang Wang.
"Miss Shu, this is the young Marquis."
Lao Xutou introduced Jiang Wang to the girl very politely.
The girl's eyes turned from the tea shop to Jiang Wang, her eyes widened slightly, her lips moved, and she murmured: "It's so beautiful..."
Old Xu Tou said: "I have always been a good boy when doing business. These two talented men and beautiful women are a perfect match. It would be a pity if we don't get married."
After finishing his words and reacting, Lao Xu Tou quickly looked at Jiang Wang and said with a smile: "It's just rhetoric. You pretend you didn't hear the first sentence. I really meant what I said after that."
Jiang Wang was speechless.
He coughed lightly, looked at the girl in front of him who seemed to be a nymphomaniac, and said calmly: "I don't know what Old Xu Tou told you, but you'd better not believe it. Girls should pay attention to safety outside and encounter any People, please be alert to anything you hear..."
Before he could finish his words, the girl sat across from him. She conjured a spear out of nowhere and hit the table with a snap.
Jiang Wang swallowed hard.
Xiaoyu's eyes changed slightly, he was holding the knife in one hand, and the other hand was already resting on the hilt of the sword behind him.
Miss Shu glanced at Xiaoyu and said nothing.
Jiang Wang silently looked at a spear lying on the table and said calmly: "What kind of tea should you drink?"
Miss Shu stared closely at Jiang Wang's face and said, "I don't drink tea."
Jiang Wang's neck was a little stiff and he turned to Lao Xu, who was standing aside and seemed to be frightened by the girl's actions just now.
Lao Xu came to his senses and said stiffly: "Girls who are good at martial arts...are more reliable."
Looking at Jiang Wang's ferocious look, he said with some embarrassment: "That Miss Shu definitely wants to get married. Although she seems a bit domineering, she is better than she is beautiful. I can strictly follow Xiao Hou's instructions." My request has been fulfilled..."
Seemingly unable to withstand Jiang Wang's eye attack, Old Xu Tou said quickly: "You guys talk slowly, I want to take a step forward!"
He ran out of the tea shop in a panic.
Jiang Wang was silent for a moment, looked at the girl opposite, and said solemnly: "I am very powerful."
Miss Shu raised her eyebrows, put her arms on the table, and said, "The old man told me that you can cover the sky with one hand in Hun City, and there is nothing you can't do."
Jiang Wang's mouth twitched.
He wanted to catch Lao Xutou who had just escaped.
"So..." Jiang Wang looked into Miss Shu's eyes and said, "You came to Huncheng for a purpose."
Miss Shu nodded and said: "This is my first time in Huncheng, but the old man is very enthusiastic. As long as he helps me find the most powerful person here besides the Huncheng garrison, I will give him three hundred taels." Silver as reward.”
Jiang Wang said with relief: "You are really rich, but I'm afraid you have found the wrong person."
Miss Shu said: "I have been to the government office, and I heard that the young marquis had a fight with Cai Tanggu from Yuyuan Academy. When talking about the young man, the people guarding the government office were very silent, and I was very embarrassed. I used some means to make them tell the truth, and the old man did not lie to me."
"It just happens that you want to marry me, and the old man can help me lead the way. It's just a trick."
Jiang Wang had a headache.
Naturally, he knew very well what kind of person Old Xu Tou was.
Although she was interested in making money, she really wanted to help him find a good wife.
I just didn't care whether he was willing or not.
What's more, according to this Miss Shu, even if there is no old Xutou, I am afraid it will soon find her.
"You can use some means to make the people who are guarding the government office obedient. It seems that your status is extraordinary. The government office will definitely help you, so why bother to find me?"
Miss Shu said with some pride: "I came to Huncheng for something very important. If I want to find someone to help me, naturally I have to find the most powerful person."
Jiang Wang was silent for a moment and said: "This is Huncheng, and the governor's office is the highest in charge. Is there a possibility that the governor's office is the most powerful one?"
Miss Shu said angrily: "You are making excuses!"
Jiang Wang said: "I'm being reasonable."
They looked at each other.
In the end, Miss Shu was defeated because her eyes were sore.
In fact, Jiang Wang had already roughly guessed it.
He has the ability to make the governor of the government submissive, and he came to Huncheng with a certain purpose.
After thinking about it, they can only be people who come here to look for immortal traces like the monks in green robes and white robes said.
According to the monks in green robes, those who are looking for immortals think it is the vision of immortals coming to the world because of the 'mirage' hanging high in the sky on Qixia Street.
And the 'mirage' seems to be in his mind. Jiang Wang knows that he cannot be an immortal. If these immortal seekers notice anything, Jiang Wang will be in endless trouble.
This is different from wanting Cai Tang to take revenge in ancient times. When it comes to the so-called immortals, it is something Jiang Wang cannot control.
If it provokes some powerful beings, not to mention the power to truly control the 'mirage', I'm afraid it will die early.
Although it seems that since the appearance of 'Mirage', he has never been defeated whether facing monsters or monks, but he almost failed against Cai Tanggu. He is not yet confident enough to be invincible.
When facing immortal seekers, hide if you can.
How can you just let him stay by your side?
Jiang Wang was thinking about what kind of defensible reason he should give to send Miss Shu away.
Suddenly another person came into the tea shop.
It was an old man with a vicissitudes of life on his face, wearing coarse linen clothes. He was holding a short knife in his hand. The scabbard had obvious signs of damage. The moment he stepped into the tea shop, he seemed to have his own aura, and a gust of wind blew directly into the flat end. Tea shop.
The old man in coarse linen clothes glanced at Jiang Wang lightly.
This made Jiang Wang couldn't help but shudder.
Murderous? !
He was secretly wary.
This murderous aura reminded him of the Jianli who wore a curtain hat.
He never expected that this kind of thing would happen again after the Du family's matter was resolved.
Could it be that Du Zicheng is up to something again?
He can be ruthless when facing the enemy, but he will never kill innocent people indiscriminately. If it is really Du Zicheng, then he really has the idea of uprooting the Du family.
This is Nancheng Lane, not Qixia Street.
Du Zicheng's 'good deed' came at the wrong time.
Du Zicheng, who was recuperating at Du's house, sneezed several times in succession. He murmured in confusion: "Is someone scolding me? It must be Lao Du!"
He finished three bowls of rice in anger.
Are you thinking about running away from home?
But in his current state, if he really did that, he might die outside.
Forget it, endure the calm for a while, and slowly get used to it.
