However, Mingkong completely let go of Wang Jingzhu. He no longer reservedly called her "Junior Sister Jingzhu" and started to call her "Jingzhu". When she asked Wang Jingzhu for sparkling water, her tone was much more casual, and she would not greet her easily. Zuo bowed.
Many people's attitudes seem to have not changed, but in fact they have changed greatly.
Lin Jiaojiao, on the other hand, remained the same as ever and was even more protective and caring towards Wang Jingzhu.
Wang Jingzhu was not disappointed at all by other people's reactions, she felt relaxed.
This is good. I have been pretending to be a rich and famous lady and practicing every day. It is really tiring.
The only bad thing was that she wanted to see Daoning and Fusheng, but she couldn't.
Daoning promised her a fashionable storage bag, and Fusheng promised her a special protective ornament. Wang Jingzhu mentioned it to Mingkong several times, openly or covertly, but Mingkong failed to bring Dao Ning and Fusheng to see her.
It's not that Mingkong is unwilling to do his best, but that Daoning and Fusheng's status is too high. A peak master and a leader are both the leaders of the Wentian Sect, but in fact, a small steward can only see it.
Let's wait until they are free and pass by Jubao Town.
"Senior Brother Mingkong, the Zhu family of Jiangzuo Dao doesn't seem to be afraid of you Wentian Sect. Their family is very powerful?" Wang Jingzhu asked Mingkong when he was free.
Mingkong answered honestly: "Of course. The Zhu family in Jiangzuo has been promoted several times, and their strength should not be underestimated. Next time Zhu Hui invites Jingzhu to Jiangzuo, you'd better go. They probably just want to have a relationship with King Xinghua It's just business, but they are always domineering, so the invitation is in a special way, Jingzhu, you don't need to care. As long as you can make money."
"Thank you, senior brother, for your advice." Wang Jingzhu bowed humbly, thanked Mingkong, and changed the subject. "To be honest, Senior Brother Mingkong said that because Guizong wanted the Wuling Original Wine before, I applied to the clan, and the clan approved it. Originally, I planned to do this wine business with Guizong for a long time, and I didn't want the leader Fusheng and Daoning to After the peak master found out that I was just a manager, he severed all contact with me. Presumably, this is what your sect meant. Senior Brother Mingkong, you are right, I should go to Jiangzuo to develop."
Mingkong quickly explained that because the sect competition was approaching, Fusheng and Daoning were busy with their affairs and could not spare time. He did not mean to look down on Wang Jingzhu.
Of course Wentianzong wanted to do the wine business with Wang Jingzhu for a long time. However, how to do this business is very particular.
Mingkong naturally heard the threat in Wang Jingzhu's words. He complained: "Jingzhu, why didn't you tell me earlier?" You clearly said before that you could only steal a small amount every year...
Wang Jingzhu was displeased: "If I had told you earlier, would I still be able to recognize your true face? You invited Wang Yingzhu to Jubao Town to identify me. Didn't you just want to force me to submit and provide you with the original wine? Unfortunately, you made a mistake in your calculations. No matter I am Wang Jingzhu of Anqing or Wang Jingzhu of Xinghua, I can do business with whomever I want, and no one can force me."
Mingkong was embarrassed and rubbed his hands in embarrassment. "Then... then..."
The sect's affairs regarding Wang Yingzhu were indeed done in a dishonest manner, but what could Mingkong do if he was in charge of affairs?
"Perhaps... maybe..." Mingkong explained timidly, "Jingzhu, you have misunderstood. It should be just a coincidence. Our sect has no grievances against you, Jingzhu... How could it be... How could it be..."
Mingkong is an honest person, and he stutters when he talks for reasons that he himself cannot believe.
Wang Jingzhu shook his head and sighed. "Senior Brother Mingkong, I feel like a mirror in my heart. Regardless of Wang Yingzhu's identification, or whether the leader of Fusheng and Peak Master Daoning are unwilling to see me, your sect's purpose is nothing more than to overpower me and force me to actively rely on or surrender to you. Zong. It’s a pity that Guizong made the wrong calculation. The worst is, I just leave Tianlan Road. Guizong doesn’t know yet, but Yang Liangjun, Crown Prince Yang, and King of Chu Li Xu have both invited me to Kyoto."
Mingkong didn't know how to answer, so he could only smile and explain feebly: "Jingzhu, you misunderstood."
Wang Jingzhu ordered: "Chu Yue, go and invite the King of Chu, and tell me that I have something to discuss."
Chu Yue agreed on the corridor, Yu Jian left.
"Senior Brother Mingkong, I want to see King Chu and need to tidy up. Please..." Wang Jingzhu raised his arm slightly and pointed to the door.
Mingkong knew that explanations were useless. Wang Jingzhu saw Wentian Sect's various actions more clearly than he, a disciple of Wentian Sect, did. Even if his tongue shines like a lotus flower, what's the use of it?
After Ming Kong left, Lin Jiaojiao, Li Jun and Jing Baoling came out of the back room.
Li Jun shook his head and said: "Zhuzi, you are making a mistake with this move. My cousin, His Royal Highness the King of Chu, has always been cold and arrogant, and he treats women without pretense. Even if you come to visit him, he may not see you. You actually And let him come to see you! I'm afraid not only will he not come, but he will also make a note of it and look for opportunities to deal with you. Sigh——"
Lin Jiaojiao and Jing Baoling had also heard about the coldness of King Chu, and couldn't help but feel worried about Wang Jingzhu.
"Your Highness, why don't you take Zhuzi over to see His Highness the King of Chu now? You can intercede for Zhuzi, but don't offend His Highness the King of Chu." Lin Jiaojiao was very worried about Wang Jingzhu's elixir, and hurriedly took Li Jun's arm and shook it. Ask the princess for help.
Li Jun was so frightened that he waved his hands quickly. "No, no. I feel weak when I see His Highness. He won't give face to my cousin. He might drive me back to Kyoto in anger."
Wang Jingzhu chuckled. "What are you worried about? Your Highness, King Chu, will definitely come to see me. Do you want to make a bet with me?"
Lin Jiaojiao stamped her feet anxiously. Zhuzi didn't understand the king of Chu and the hierarchy in the world. Even if Daoting, the head of the Wentian Sect, sent a servant to invite the King of Chu, he would not be able to invite the King of Chu, and would only be beaten out by the King of Chu.
For a person like the King of Chu, if Wang Jingzhu is the legitimate daughter of the Wang family in Xinghua, she can directly visit him at his door. Now that Wang Jingzhu's identity is confirmed to be just a steward, she can only hand over the invitation in person, and then go home and wait for King Chu to summon him.
Li Jun got excited when he heard that he was going to bet. This bet is guaranteed to win. "What bet?"
"Just bet..." Wang Jingzhu tilted her head and thought for a while, "If King Chu really comes, you have to go out and wander around Jubao Town for a day. During this period, you are not allowed to rest or come back. If King Chu doesn't come today, you should I’ll go shopping all day without stopping.”
For Wang Jingzhu, this is not a bet. When the King of Chu came, Wang Jingzhu couldn't ask Li Jun and others to go out and avoid it. If the King of Chu ordered them to leave, it would be a disgrace to them.
"This is great!" Li Jun couldn't help but slap the table. If King Chu really came, she would like to hide out, as far away as possible. "However, I have to add one more thing. You can't just go shopping. You have to buy at least a hundred things to give to the winner!"
"Okay! Let's do it." Wang Jingzhu and Li Jun high-fived and signed a contract.
King Li Xu of Chu did not live in Jubao Town. Just like the treatment Wang Jingzhu had enjoyed before, Wentianzong arranged a special palace for him.
Chuyue fell at the door of King Chu's residence, put away his sword, and knocked respectfully, not daring to make any mistakes, let alone fly straight into the courtyard.
He trespassed into other people's courtyards and was killed as an intruder. He died with no place to complain.
Of course, this rule only applies to the strong.
The courtyard of the weak is like an undefended one.
