Just like a monarch who is about to visit his own country, Xu Jiaohe was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.
When she opened her eyes, she saw a dark night, but when she closed her eyes, she saw golden coins and white sparkling spiritual stones.
When the sky was bright, she turned over and sat up from the bed. She rang the bell to summon the dew to dress herself up.
Yunxian Zongshang is light and restrained, and does not like colors that are too strong and heavy.
But according to Xu Jiaohe's idea, as a new official takes office, she should dress up warmly and festively.
Because of Ji Ruotan's death, she had to remain in prison for more than 20 days.
So when Lu Hua wasn't paying attention, she secretly hung a thin, crimson-colored string around her wrist to express her joy in looking forward to the future.
After doing this, she walked lightly to the next peak to look for You Wenyu.
Only a few days after the opening of the mountain, this newly formed "Bu Zheng Peak" is in ruins and waiting to be built.
The empty courtyard and the two disciples guarding the door gave off a sense of depression.
Seeing Xu Jiaohe, they hurriedly said: "Jiaohe Jun, Guanmiao Jun is discussing something inside."
On the majestic wooden door with thousands of river patterns in the water, there is a faint light flowing like clouds and mist.
Xu Jiaohe had suffered a loss once and knew that this was probably a barrier that prohibited people from entering.
She took a step back and asked casually: "Are you discussing something with Mr. Hengming?"
"As far as Mr. Jiaohe is concerned, yes."
"How long have they been in there?"
"It didn't take long, just before you came. I just went in." After answering Xu Jiaohe's question, the older disciple A showed a look of embarrassment on his face and advised, "Disciple can't tell what is inside." Time is over, why don't Mr. Jiaohe go back and wait."
Xu Jiaohe has no spiritual power, cannot fly with a sword, and cannot activate teleportation formations.
If you don't want to use your legs to walk, you have to consume the formation talisman in the Lingbao Ring every time.
She secretly scolded You Wenyu a few times for being unpunctual, then hesitated for a moment, and had some ridiculous ideas about being diligent and thrifty.
Then he said, "Bring a chair over, I'll just sit there and wait for a while."
The two disciples agreed and brought a mahogany chair and a small table. On the tray were the candied dried fruits that Xu Jiaohe liked.
Seeing this, Xu Jiaohe asked curiously: "You haven't even finished the gate to the courtyard, how can you have these human food?"
"Mr. Guanmiao asked me to prepare it in case Mr. Jiaohe comes to visit someday and doesn't have anything to entertain me."
Disciple B, who had been robbed of the limelight by disciple A several times, argued.
Xu Jiaohe said oh without meaning, and after a while he said slowly: "He is also thoughtful."
After burning the incense, the barrier was removed, and the two closed doors opened one after another.
Xu Jiaohe brushed off the scattered fruit shells on her body and wanted to speak when she got up, but saw Song Chang, who was wearing purple clothes and arrow sleeves, crossing the threshold and saying goodbye.
When the two met, Song Chang's hand that had never been put down was raised in front of Xu Jiaohe: "Mr. Jiaohe."
"Jun Hengming."
Xu Jiaohe felt a little uncomfortable seeing his secret being held by the other party.
Fortunately, Song Chang didn't stay too long and said goodbye before leaving.
Just when the two were about to pass each other, the young man's sharp and deep words reached my ears: "Your red string is leaking out."
Xu Jiaohe's shoulders shook and he suddenly covered his left wrist.
She used her peripheral vision to explore Song Chang, and she only had time to catch the gorgeous and flamboyant back, and a chuckle that was almost an illusion.
"Master's wife, why don't you come in?"
A slightly confused voice drew Xu Jiaohe's attention back.
She turned her head and saw You Wenyu with his arms half-folded in the brightly lit room.
Xu Jiaohe lifted up her skirt and stepped into You Wenyu's newly moved inner room for the first time. She looked around half a circle and said, "You are so slow!"
"Sorry, I was delayed by Mr. Hengming."
You Wenyu admitted his mistake in a good-tempered manner.
"Forget it, as elders, you can't argue with juniors about such trivial matters."
Xu Jiaohe turned her back, looked at the ancient shelf holding treasures in front of her, and waved her hand perfunctorily to show her generosity.
But he didn't see You Wenyu's face darken behind him.
"Master's wife, let's go then?"
You Wenyu walked up to her and said to her.
Xu Jiaohe nodded and took the lead, but was pulled back by the young man: "Wait a minute."
She raised her eyes in confusion, but her vision was blocked by fluttering white gauze.
You Wenyu covered her head with a curtain and said righteously: "When walking outside, it is better for Master to cover her face. After all, she is pregnant with a huge treasure and lacks the ability to protect herself, so many people will miss her. "
…
Xu Jiaohe has not been down the mountain for seven years.
The scenery and scenery of the world had already faded into vague old shadows in her mind.
She and You Wenyu Yujian descended from the Buzheng Peak, walked two miles more, and after showing the gatekeeper who guarded the barrier the warrant signed by the sect master, they left the Yunxian Sect, which was full of spiritual power and treasures of heaven and earth.
The teleportation formation bloomed and faded like a lotus under her feet. In the blink of an eye, Xu Jiaohe was already in the bustling world.
Today's world is divided into three realms, namely immortals, demons and humans.
The Nine Heavens of the Immortal Realm have not been opened for thousands of years, and the Sea of Desire in the Demonic Realm is barren and cold. Only the Jiuzhou Human Realm, which is shared by immortal cultivators and mortals, is prosperous.
When Xu Jiaohe recalled her memories as a concubine in the minister's family, she felt as if she had been in another world.
"Master's wife, don't be in a daze."
You Wenyu waved his hand in front of her eyes.
He seems to be very adaptable to this kind of human life. He wears his robe and jade belt, swings his folding fan gently, and behaves like a handsome young man in troubled times.
Xu Jiaohe glanced at him through the veil of the curtain: "Where should we go first?"
"Where do you want to go, Master?"
There were so many banks, auction houses, and silk shops. If she had to name one place she wanted to go to the most, she would be hard-pressed to choose.
You Wenyu looked at her with the tip of her tongue touching the side of her face, looking at a loss, and then reminded her: "Buying and selling goods, food, drink and accommodation all require money."
Yes, money!
Xu Jiaohe's eyes brightened: "Then let's go to the bank first and transfer all the spiritual stones and coins in your master's account to my name."
You Wenyu: "..."
The interiors of banks run by immortal cultivators have a more otherworldly atmosphere compared to their counterparts that mainly trade coins with mortals.
Xu Jiaohe followed You Wenyu into the main office of Tiantong Bank, and felt that everything was gorgeous and elegant, without the money lines of ordinary banks.
"Master Wen."
Under the hanging flower door, the young man who was leaning against the door came up to him, "Why are you here?"
"Of course I came here when I had something to do."
You Wenyu opened the folding fan with a snap, looking as if he was strolling in his back garden.
The boy winked and asked another companion to go in and report to the shopkeeper.
With a shy smile, he welcomed You Wenyu in: "Go in and sit down for a while. The shopkeeper will be here soon."
Xu Jiaohe hid in the shadow of the young man, only tilting his head slightly, paying attention to the conversation between the two parties.
Not long after, a middle-aged man with a white cloth wrapped around his arm and dressed more prosperously came out of the inner courtyard.
He followed the etiquette of a human servant meeting his master: "I've seen Mr. Wen before, but I didn't know that Mr. Wen was here. It's really disappointing to welcome him from afar."
"Okay, Shopkeeper Ji, please be less polite."
You Wenyu said quietly, "I came today because of something important."
As soon as Shopkeeper Ji heard his words, the flattering expression on his face softened considerably, revealing the shrewdness and capability unique to a businessman.
He led the two of them into the inner courtyard where they came from, opened the door curtains that were intertwined with each other, faced the chief seat and stretched out his hands respectfully: "Master, please take a seat."
"Master, please sit here."
You Wenyu looked at the familiar purple gold sandalwood Taishi chair, but did not sit on it as usual.
He controlled his strength and pulled the chair open a little, lowered his eyes and bowed slightly towards Xu Jiaohe, his tone of reverence.
Only then did Shopkeeper Ji notice the woman who was following You Wenyu and could not see her face clearly.
He has been running a bank for decades and has seen many immortal cultivators bring a similarly dressed female companion with them when they come to deposit and withdraw spiritual stones.
I just thought that You Wenyu was a romantic and passionate lover hidden in the world.
Unexpectedly, when the young man said "Master's mother", his mind, which had always been flexible, went blank for a moment.
Master...?
You Wenyu's master is Wuyan Daojun Ji Ruotan, half owner of Tiantong Bank.
She can be called his master's wife.
After thinking about it, there was only that mortal woman who had never shown her face in Kyushu after the contract was formed seven years ago.
Shopkeeper Ji thought about this, knelt down with a plop, and kowtowed to Xu Jiaohe firmly: "I have seen my mistress!"
What mistress?
Xu Jiaohe's head in a curtain hat turned to where You Wenyu was, and through the gap in the veil, he conveyed his questions to the other party's eyes.
Due to the occasion, You Wenyu couldn't explain everything to her, so he just said calmly: "Let's call the master's wife madam. After all, the Jiuzhou Ji family now has a mistress, and they will meet again later, so don't get confused. good."
"Yes, Mr. Wen."
Shopkeeper Ji kowtowed again and stood up slowly when he heard You Wenyu speak.
"You also know about Master's destruction of Tao, right?"
You Wenyu stood beside him, reached for the half-open teapot on the table, and made Xu Jiaohe a cup of tea.
Shopkeeper Ji raised his sleeves and wiped the corners of his eyes and said, "Yes, God is jealous of talented people."
"When Master was alive, I had always taken care of the property in his name. Now that Master has passed away, his Huaiyuan Peak has been inherited by Master's mother."
You Wenyu only spoke the beginning, but Shopkeeper Ji had already guessed what would happen next.
He said: "But the Lord's property will also be transferred to Madam?"
"Since you understand, I don't need to waste any more words."
You Wenyu was not as gentle and polite to outsiders as he was to Xu Jiaohe.
His expression was cold, his back was straight, and he exuded the majesty of a superior.
After Shopkeeper Ji responded in a low voice, he added a few words: "You should also know why I came to you in the first place."
"Everything else is a tough nut to crack."
Shopkeeper Ji thought for a moment and immediately took out a scroll from the hidden compartment of the landscape painting in the inner room. He held it in both hands and placed it in front of Xu Jiaohe: "This is a list of people who are absolutely loyal to Madam and Mr. Wen and want to transfer the industry. , but start here first.”
Xu Jiaohe opened the scroll and took a look. It was full of unfamiliar names, which made her a little confused.
She handed it to You Wenyu smoothly: "Wen Yu, come and take a look."
"Yes, Master."
You Wenyu only paused for those names for a few moments. He turned the scroll over and fumbled for a thinner piece of paper from the back cover.
Shopkeeper Ji said: "This piece of paper is the villain's suspicion of double-mindedness."
"Their hands are stretched out so long, and now that they have another one of their own, 'Ji Daojun', they start to feel restless."
"No matter what, he is still not comparable to Wuyan Daojun."
"Master's wife is still alive, and I'm not dead either. I can't tolerate their wantonness."
…
Xu Jiaohe began to be confused about the purpose of following You Wenyu to the world.
Is it to listen to these two people playing riddles here?
She drank two cups of tea in succession, and suddenly felt sleepy after being so energetic last night.
Just when she couldn't help but want to yawn, You Wenyu placed a piece of gorgeously framed paper in her hand.
"Master, please sign your name on the lower right side, and all of Master's property will be transferred to your name."
"……real?"
She felt that her unconscious question was a little awkward, and she quickly raised her sleeves to cover her mouth in embarrassment.
But no one laughed, and no one seemed to care.
The eyes of You Wenyu and Shopkeeper Ji both stayed on this piece of paper.
Xu Jiaohe calmed down, held the Jianhao Hu pen, and wrote her name one stroke at the end.
