Lin Wanwan withdrew from her misty thoughts. In the blink of an eye, she and Long Shuang followed Su Jingqian into Zhuangzi, and were led by the housekeeper to the central hall. -
At this time, two men were sitting in the central hall.
A man in his fifties, of medium build, with a long beard, his hair tightly tied with a hosta, his forehead showed a few fine lines that have accumulated over time, his eyes were bright and steady. There is a sense of wisdom in him. Although he only wears ordinary common clothes, he can't hide the elegant aura of a well-educated scholar. There is a calm demeanor in his every move.
This person is none other than Jiang Huailang, the former Minister of Rites of the Nanling Kingdom.
The other man was about 30 years old, with wheat complexion, a tall and burly figure standing as tall as a mountain, exuding an awe-inspiring righteousness, a cold face, sharp features, and eyes as resolute and sharp as blades. At this moment, he was looking at each other from time to time. He looked out the door with a somewhat anxious expression.
This person is none other than Nie Shu, General Jingwu of the Nanling Kingdom.
After Nie Shu finished talking to Jiang Huailang, he was picking up a cup of tea. Before he could enter the room, he heard a slightly trembling call from outside the hall: "Brother!"
His hand trembled violently, and the hot tea instantly poured onto the back of his hand, splashing a cloud of white smoke. He ignored the tingling sensation on his hand, immediately put down the teacup and stepped forward with a quick stride. He embraced the woman in sable fur clothing into his arms.
His eyes were slightly closed, his body was trembling a little, two lines of clear tears slowly slid down his resolute face, and his voice was hoarse: "Little sister."
The brother and sister had been apart for many years, and had experienced life and death. Nie Shu never thought that one day he would see his most beloved sister, Long Shuang, again.
The joy and excitement after a long separation soon spread to every corner. Jiang Huailang stood in the hall, looking at the Nie brothers and sisters hugging each other from a distance, and he couldn't help but feel a touch of moisture in the corners of his eyes.
Lin Wanwan was filled with emotion when she saw this scene. While she was happy for Long Shuang, she couldn't help but secretly sigh that Su Jin's move was really well hidden.
If Nie Shu failed to rob the prison and was wanted by the whole country, Long Shuang would not be restless all day, then she would not be able to see through the relationship between Long Shuang and Ni Shu.
He had a double cage, a window cage for ears, and an extra pair. He never showed up in Xuanji Tower, and he always wore a curtain hat when he went out... It turned out that there were traces of him, but Su Jin easily hid them.
Lin Wanwan and Su Jingqian looked at each other at the same time. Their eyes met unexpectedly. Their eyes met briefly, but they both read the answers they wanted in each other's eyes.
Su Jingqian's thin lips curled up slightly, and a gentle smile flashed in his eyes. The little fox could indeed guess it.
Lin Wanwan's red lips twitched slightly. It turned out that he had already known that he would guess it, old fox.
The two of them smiled knowingly, then tacitly withdrew their gaze and walked into the hall.
Su Jingqian's eyes fell on Jiang Huailang who was standing in the hall, nodded to him and said, "Master Jiang."
When Jiang Huailang saw the visitor, he immediately calmed down and bowed politely to him: "Master Su."
"I didn't expect Mr. Jiang to know Su. I'm really honored."
Su Jingqian's tone was modest, his smile was warm, and he exuded an aura of grace and nobility. He really looked like a rich kid who was knowledgeable and polite.
Lin Wanwan sighed secretly. It seemed that this old fox was going to start deceiving people again.
Jiang Huailang looked at the person in front of him calmly. This person's appearance was like a rosy glow. Even though he had been in a high position for many years and had seen countless people, he couldn't help but admire him when he saw him. Such an appearance was probably rare in this world. They are rare, but the world-famous style that exudes from the bones has nothing to do with appearance. It is an accumulation after experiencing tempering and tempering, and it is by no means owned by ordinary people. No matter this person's appearance or demeanor, no one in the world can match him. Jiang Huailang already had a hunch in his heart that the surprises this person could bring to him were far more than that.
Although Jiang Huailang's heart was filled with excitement, he still maintained a polite and reserved smile on his face, appearing neither humble nor arrogant. "It is rumored that Boss Su of Xuanji Tower is not only young and promising, but also extremely handsome. He is an unparalleled handsome man in the world. Today, Only when I was lucky enough to see his face did I know that the rumors were true."
When Lin Wanwan heard this, she was slightly surprised. Jiang Huailang recognized Su Jin based on only a rumor, which surprised her. Logically speaking, a talented person like Jiang Huailang should naturally focus on the country. How can one care about such market rumors when it comes to national affairs?
unless……
Lin Wanwan glanced at Su Jingqian with a strange expression.
Unless Jiang Huailang's family also has a delicate daughter who is obsessed with Su Jin.
Tsk, monster! Lin Wanwan couldn't help but cursed in her heart.
However, given Jiang Huailang's temperament, he was so generous with compliments when they first met. She felt that this was not necessarily sincere, but more like a test, paving the way for what was to come next.
As expected, Jiang Huailang immediately changed the topic and said straight to the point: "Since Mr. Su can save the lives of more than ten members of my Jiang family under the eyes of the imperial city, and rescue Xiao Shu from numerous pursuers, I'm afraid he is not the brothel boss." As simple as that, right?”
When Su Jingqian heard this, the smile on his lips did not diminish and his attitude was non-committal.
He walked to the main seat next to Jiang Huailang, made a "please" gesture to Jiang Huailang, and the two of them took their seats.
Lin Wanwan also found a seat and sat down at the side. At this time, the Nie family brother and sister also walked in from the outside. After nodding to several people, they sat down quietly. Then, everyone's eyes fell on Su Jingqian and Jiang Huailang.
Su Jingqian picked up the tea that the boy had just brought and poured the foam from the cup calmly. Even though everyone was waiting for his answer, he still did not speak.
Jiang Huailang was slightly surprised and couldn't help but look at the person in front of him again.
If it were anyone else who went to such great lengths to rescue them, he would definitely take the opportunity to announce his home, tell his heart's desire, and repay the favor, but he didn't say a word and drank tea slowly. This ambiguous attitude only made them doubtful and formed an invisible pressure.
He has been an official for decades and has dealt with all kinds of people in the officialdom. No matter how deeply their greed and desires, ambitions and goals are hidden, there will always be some clues found deep in their eyes.
But the Master Su in front of him was clearly above everyone else just by the magnanimity he exuded. However, deep in his eyes, it was like a bottomless pool, with a feeling that had endured for a long time. After the baptism, he was calm and calm. If he didn't want to, I'm afraid no one would be able to glimpse any emotion from those silent eyes. It seems to be perfect and without any impurities, but it makes people feel dangerous, like an invisible abyss. If you are not careful, you will fall into it and be doomed.
