On the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, the moon is covered by floating clouds, and the Tianhe River under the clouds is bright and shining.
In the city of Bianjing, the Feiqiao Hongshi is brightly lit, reflecting the radiance of the Bianhe River that divides the capital into two, which is fascinating.
Jiang Rong and the others sat on the painting boat, slowly heading east along the current.
Before she had traveled far, she saw the cloud platform with countless golden and red lights hanging in front of her.
"Is that Miss Li Shishi going to perform dances here?" Lin Shiyin didn't go out very often, so she didn't know much about these capital gossips, so when she asked now, her tone was uncertain.
"Jiyuelou's Xiao Er told me so, that Yuanwai Zhang spends a lot of money and only asks for a dance with a beautiful woman." Jiang Rong nodded and replied like this.
"Then her dancing posture must be extremely beautiful." Lin Shiyin said again.
Jiang Rong couldn't answer this question, because she had never seen it before.
She originally wanted to say that she didn't know if Li Shishi danced beautifully or not, but she knew that he must also be a great beauty.However, before they could speak, Jiang Yi who was sitting on their left suddenly answered first.
Jiang Yidao: "I have also heard some customers in the shop talk about this in the past two days."
"They said that Miss Shishi couldn't be moved easily. Zhang Yuanwai threw thousands of dollars for her dance, but it was actually used to help the victims outside the city."
"It is said that the porridge sheds for the relief of the victims were all set up and the porridge began to be distributed, and Miss Shi Shi let go."
Jiang Rong: "Wow, people are beautiful and kind."
Lin Shiyin was also very emotional: "It turned out to be so."
They were talking about this on the painting boat, so Bai Tianyu and Li Xunhuan next door naturally heard it too.
During the day, Yu turned around and added to the topic: "If it wasn't beautiful, why would so many people gather on the river today just to take a look at her."
He consciously found a topic that he could chat with them, and he was quite satisfied after finishing speaking, but as soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Suiyun put down his wine cup and laughed.
Yuan Suiyun said: "It is said that the Master of the Divine Sword Hall is one of the best romantic talents in the Jianghu. I thought it was a mistake in the rumors of the Jianghu, but I didn't expect it to be an exaggeration."
Bai Baiyu: "???" Is this person mocking me?
In front of the villain Gu Bawanghua that he was thinking about, he wanted to refute a few words, but based on his past deeds, it was really difficult to refute the word romantic.
At least he searched and searched, but couldn't find any words to immediately wash away his reputation as a romantic.
In the end, he could only drag the other party into the water together, saying: "Everyone has the love of beauty, otherwise why did the original young master come to swim the Bian River tonight?"
When Yuan Suiyun heard the words, he smiled and said nothing.
Jiang Yi at the side heard this, and couldn't help explaining: "Suiyun is actually not very interested in dancing with the oiran, he just wants to accompany us to swim in the river."
Bai Baiyu: "..."
He wanted to say something more, but Ma Kongqun, his righteous brother beside him, suddenly reminded everyone that the Yuntai was approaching, and Li Shishi should come out.
Hearing what he said, everyone hurriedly put down the drinks and fruits in their hands, sat still and raised their eyes to look in the direction of Yuntai.
It is said to be close, but in fact there is still a distance of more than ten feet.
On summer nights, the Bianhe River is misty, giving you the feeling of being surrounded by fairy mist.And the cloud platform in front of them is in this winding fairy mist, the platform is covered with impatiens petals, and the water under the platform is surrounded by a large piece of Hangu that was only transplanted in the past two days.
Also because of these handicaps, when the boat traveled to this area, its speed became slower and slower, which was convenient for them to enjoy the wonderful scene of beauties dancing.
But at this moment, the beauty is still in the depths of the brocade curtain, half covering her face with her pipa in her arms.
Outside the brocade curtain, there were only ten divas divided into two rows, sitting opposite each other, playing an unknown melody on the guqin.
At first, Jiang Rong thought that he didn't know the source of the song because of his lack of knowledge, so he leaned over to Lin Shiyin and whispered in Lin Shiyin's ear.
As a result, Lin Shiyin also shook her head: "I've never heard of it before, presumably Miss Shi Shi composed the music herself?"
As soon as Lin Shiyin finished speaking, the tune of the song suddenly changed, losing its previous eloquence and becoming more exciting.
Jiang Rong listened to it, and felt that compared to the accompaniment during the dance, this song was more like it was used to motivate soldiers on the battlefield.
This is true for a person who is not very proficient in rhythm, but for people like Yuan Suiyun and Li Xunhuan who are elegant and natural and are not subordinates, the feeling is even stronger.
Li Xunhuan also heard what Lin Shiyin said just now, before he opened his mouth, he glanced at his cousin and said, "If this song is really composed by him, then this Miss Li must be someone who has a deep heart."
Yuan Suiyun nodded: "Songs with such momentum are rare, not to mention that she has a family background."
Hearing what the two of them had said, Jiang Rong became even more curious about Li Shishi for a while.
She didn't care about picking up the pomegranate pulp that Lin Shiyin handed to her, and her eyes never left the slender figure behind the curtain on the stage.
Seeing this, Lin Shiyin simply fed it to her mouth and said, "Sister Rong, take a bite, this pomegranate is very sweet."
"Huh? Okay." Jiang Rong didn't show politeness to her, and opened his mouth to bite.
The sweet taste spread between her lips and teeth, she squinted her eyes, and said happily: "It's really sweet! Thank you, sister Shiyin!"
When Lin Shiyin came here, she knew that everything on the boat today was arranged by her cousin. Hearing what she said, she hurriedly smiled and said: "I just picked and picked. I don't want my sister to thank you. It's better to thank you." Mr. Yi is thoughtful."
Jiang Yi was caught off guard by the name-calling by his future business partners, so he hurriedly sat up straight and said, "Wherever you like, it's fine."
Jiang Rong ate the pomegranate, because she had straightened her back for a while, and now with Lin Shiyin supporting her, she leaned on her beautiful sister confidently and boldly, and said while eating: "That's right, sister Shiyin, you don't have to be polite to my brother, he has money There are many."
After a few jokes like this, the much-anticipated number one oiran in the capital finally came out of the curtain stepping on the sound of the piano that was about to play to its climax.
Contrary to what many people imagined, she was dressed very simply, and there were no rings on her head or body.
But the reason why beauties are beauties is because they can catch people's attention and become the focus of everyone's attention when they dress up in any way.
At the moment Li Shishi came out, the entire Bian River, including the tourists along the bank, fell silent together.
Everyone stopped, everyone was looking at her.
The river flowed eastward, the starry sky was bright, and the lights were brightly lit. For a moment, all the light seemed to fall on her alone.
And she raised her hands and sleeves in this silence that was so incompatible with tonight, and danced the first step.
The sleeves were extremely long, but when they flew up and down with her movements, they didn't look messy in the slightest. Instead, they attracted the eyes of the viewers, and they refused to move away for a long time.
With such a magnificent scene, it is not an exaggeration to say that a dance can turn the city into a city.
After Jiang Rong came over a little bit, he couldn't help shouting hello.
Her cry was actually not loud, but at the moment it was very quiet everywhere except for the sound of the piano, so when she opened her mouth, she attracted many people's attention.
Even the singers who were sitting on the cloud platform and playing the piano couldn't help but glanced in their direction.
Praising Li Shishi for dancing well is of course nothing surprising for singers, but it is not common for this praise to come from a young girl.
At least in the impression of these singers, it was the first time.
Jiang Rong didn't think it was a big deal, she noticed that the singer on stage looked towards her, and raised the wine cup in front of her to respond.
Looking at the center of the cloud platform again, Li Shishi, who was dancing gracefully in a red dress, also slowed down after dancing the most exciting part of the music, softening his waist.
She almost folded her body in half, and used her backhand to pick up the impatiens flower petals on the platform. She didn't know how to do it, but within half a breath, she picked up more than half of her palm.
The moment she stood up straight again, the petals in her hand flew out along with the skirt.
When the night wind came, it was blown away, and occasionally one or two pieces floated to the shore, which immediately attracted tourists to exhale with joy.
Jiang Rong and the others also floated a few pieces, but most of them fell into the water, only one piece was mostly damaged, probably because of its lightness, it swayed all the way in the wind and landed on Yuan Suiyun's shoulder.
Yuan Suiyun was dressed all in white tonight, with flower petals falling from his shoulders, even at night it was so obvious that people could see it clearly at a glance.
Jiang Yi was very excited, he felt that this was a proof of good luck, and he blinked at him, saying: "It seems that among us, the one who is most destined to be with this teacher is not very interested in her dancing Suiyun."
Now that the flowers are blooming and the atmosphere is better, there is nothing wrong with making a few jokes along the way.
What's more, Yuan Suiyun also knew that Jiang Yi's speech, especially to him, was always without malice, and he just said what he thought of.
So he also smiled, took off the Impatiens petals on his shoulders, put them on the table in front of him, pushed them with the wine cup, and sent them to Jiang Rong.
Jiang Rong: "?"
He continued to laugh: "I see that you are about to reach out into the water to fish."
Jiang Rong's intention was to be seen through, and he didn't feel embarrassed. Instead, he explained solemnly: "Everyone is robbing, I want to be happy."
Holding the wine glass, with gentle eyes, he said: "Then I will share my happiness with you."
Jiang Rong wanted to say thank you for your generosity, but before the first syllable was uttered, the prosperous scene in front of him changed.
The cloud platform, which was standing firmly in the water, suddenly trembled and made a creaking sound that almost overwhelmed the sound of the piano.
Suddenly, the singers on the stage could not keep their minds and continue to play the piano, their complexions turned pale, and they were all in a mess.
Amongst the panic, the calmest one was undoubtedly Li Shishi in the center of Yuntai.
She didn't even put away her dancing movements completely, and said quickly, "Everyone, don't panic!"
If Yuntai had only trembled a little and was slammed by her, the singers might not have panicked so much.
However, the next moment, someone noticed that the green bamboos used to build the platform under their feet had slowly spread apart.
"The cloud platform is about to fall!"
"what!"
"Help... help!"
"Senior sister, what should we do now?"
All these sounds sounded almost at the same time.
Not to mention that Li Shishi, who was also on the stage, couldn't answer, even many people in the audience were nervous and exclaimed together.
Sitting on the painting boat, Jiang Rong watched in shock.
With only half a breath, she made up her mind, straightened up and slapped the table, jumped up from the boat, stepped on the unthankful Hanyu on the water, and swept all the way up the platform with her strength.
In the chaos, several singers had already jumped off the platform with their zithers in their arms, and landed on the small boat on the right.
It's just that the small boat can't accommodate too many people, even if the remaining people ran to the side of the boat, there was no place to stand.
Li Shishi originally had a chance to go down, but she gave it to the singer beside her who was about to cry.
After giving way, the green bamboos under his feet scattered one by one, and the sound of falling into the water became louder and louder.
She knew that in a few moments, this beautiful cloud platform would completely collapse.
And just when she was ready to fall into the water, she heard a clear and pleasant voice in the air.
The voice said: "Ms. Shi Shi, give me your hand!"
Li Shishi raised his eyes, and saw a figure as white as a moon in the midst of the lights.
It was a girl who looked only twenty or eight years old.
The girl stretched out her hand towards her, her expression and eyes showed that there was no need to worry.
Li Shishi didn't think about it, he handed over his hand and shook it.
Then she was hugged by the waist.
The sound of the wind whistling past her ears, mixed with the sound of the platform continuing to collapse, she was concerned about the sisters on the platform who hadn't had time to get on the boat like her, so she couldn't help opening her mouth: "Girl—"
The girl who saved her was naturally Jiang Rong.
Jiang Rong knew what she was worried about by hearing her tone, and said, "Don't worry, my friends have already rescued the other three girls. If you don't believe me, look down."
Everything happened in the blink of an eye, no matter how calm Li Shishi was, without knowing martial arts, he couldn't see the overall situation.
But now she was held in Jiang Rong's arms, and when she lowered her head to look, it was clear.
Her three sisters were all well taken down at this moment, and they never fell into the water.
Li Shishi heaved a sigh of relief, and was about to say thanks, when he saw one of the handsome young men in black suddenly hugged someone and raised his eyes, and said, "Hey, it turns out that Valley Master Jiang also regards me as a friend?"
Jiang Rong: "..." Are you still kicking your nose on your face?
She gritted her teeth, turned her head and said loudly to Li Shishi: "Miss Shishi, let me correct what I just said, it's my two friends and a piece of dog skin plaster that I can't get rid of."
Bai Tianyu, who was stamped with a dog skin plaster, was also not angry. He landed on the boat with the rescued singer in his arms, and said with a playful smile: "Since Guzhu Jiang said so, then I will follow Guzhu Jiang from now on. Is it justified?"
He was born well, even if he said the stalking words outright and confidently, it seemed reasonable to others.
At least the singer who had just been rescued by his hero couldn't help but chuckled.
After Jiang Rong put Li Shishi down, she decided to learn her lesson and directly ignore this psychopath who became more energetic the more she disliked her.
She let go of her hand, met the gaze of the number one oiran in the capital, and said: "Miss Shishi was just shocked, but luckily nothing happened."
Li Shishi immediately bowed his body and thanked: "Thanks to the girl."
For Jiang Rong, it is not difficult to save someone at a critical moment, but she can't figure it out, why did the gimbal suddenly fall down?And it fell so quickly, as if it was planned...
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look again at the river surrounded by Han.
What came into view was a sea of fire on the water. Fortunately, the river was so fast that these fires burned for a while, and then quickly extinguished.
Jiang Rong couldn't help frowning, and said: "Miss Shi Shi, I don't think this is an accident. Has anyone offended you recently?"
Hearing this, Li Shishi thought about it for a moment, and suddenly his face darkened.
But she didn't answer immediately, instead she looked around.
Jiang Rong: "?"
There was a chaos just now, which disturbed many people watching along the river bank. Although people have been rescued at this moment, the scene has not yet recovered.
Compared with the shore where people are pushing and shoving everywhere, the river is relatively calm.
Looking at Li Shishi's expression, Jiang Rong knew that she must know something, or that she had a guessing direction.
It's just that everyone met by chance, so she can't feel at ease to say it here.
In the heart of repaying the wonderful song and dance tonight, Jiang Rong invited him into the cabin and took the initiative to reveal his identity.
Jiang Rongdao: "Miss Shi Shi, what happened tonight, even if it was not for your life, there is absolutely no good intentions. If you know something, you may as well speak up. I can ask my senior brother to find out for you."
"My senior brother is the prince of the Sixth Five-Year God who was appointed by the emperor himself, and the instructor of the forbidden army. His four apprentices have solved major cases, and they will definitely help you."
Li Shishi was quite calm at the beginning, but when he heard "the six or five gods proclaimed by the son of heaven", he was stunned: "Young lady's brother is... is it the Zhuge god?"
Jiang Rong shrugged: "Unless there is a second Imperial Army instructor in the capital."
"To tell you the truth, I do have some guesses about what happened tonight." Li Shishi said, "I didn't say it just now, it's not that I don't believe in the girl, but I can't be sure."
Jiang Rong said it's okay, you can rest assured.
"For such a big matter, we have to check it out."
Li Shishi pondered for a moment, and said: "A few days ago, someone sneaked into my room in the middle of the night."
Furong Pavilion is a brothel, as long as you have money, you can go in if you want.
But Li Shishi's boudoir cannot be opened with money.
She is well-known, talented and beautiful, and praised by literati and knight-errants. No matter how much money she spends on someone she doesn't want to meet, Fu Rongxie has the confidence to refuse.
And most of the time, she is indeed rarely willing to meet those who only have money.
"At that time, I was entertaining a guest with a very secret identity." Li Shishi said, "Even my maid didn't know about it, she just thought I had rested."
"Fortunately, the guest brought a lot of entourages. The entourage heard the sound of someone sneaking into the room. They fought with him and forced the person back. Unfortunately, they failed to catch him."
Jiang Rong: "So, that man's martial arts is very high?"
Li Shishi nodded: "According to the guest's followers, that person's martial arts can be compared with the top masters in Beijing."
"I thought he was coming for my guests, because after that night, no one visited my room in the middle of the night." Speaking of this, she paused, "But according to tonight, maybe I was wrong. "
Jiang Rong is not good at reasoning, so he just felt that the matter was more complicated than he imagined, so he asked her: "If you don't mind, I will take you to the Shenhou Mansion in a while, and tell the situation to my brother and the others." Say it?"
Of course Li Shishi didn't mind, but she was concerned about her sisters. After agreeing, she couldn't hold back and said: "Can I send the frightened sisters back first?"
Jiang Rong: "If you trust me, you might as well leave this matter to me, and I will let my friend send them back to Furongxie safely."
Master Li thought for a while, nodded and agreed: "Okay."
When Jiang Rong heard the words, he immediately stretched out half of his body, begging Yuan Suiyun outside the cabin.
Yuan Suiyun and Li Xunhuan Bai Baiyu had just rescued people together, knowing that these singers were greatly frightened, they didn't want to reject Jiang Rong, so they agreed without thinking too much.
"Good," he said.
"Then I'll go with you too." Jiang Yi immediately volunteered to follow.
"Help me send Sister Shiyin to me." Jiang Rong had other arrangements.
"Ah?" Jiang Yi didn't think it was necessary at all, his cousin was still there.
In fact, when she said that, Lin Shiyin was taken aback.
Lin Shiyin waved her hand and said, "Don't bother Mr. Yi, I'll just go back with my cousin."
Jiang Rong blinked and said, but I can't bear to let my sister and Li Tanhua go back to Li Garden.
"Didn't we agree, swim across the Bian River tonight, and you will stay with me for a few days."
Lin Shiyin did remember this, Jiang Rong mentioned it when they met at the intersection earlier.
However, with the turmoil on the river tonight, Jiang Rong seemed to want to take Li Shishi to the Shenhou Mansion. Lin Shiyin felt that it would be better for him to go back to Li Garden first and wait for her to settle the matter.To save her from having to take care of such trivial things as entertaining herself while she is busy, causing trouble to her.
She told Jiang Rong her concerns, Jiang Rong shook her head and said, "You think too much! Entertaining Sister Shiyin is not a troublesome thing."
Speaking of this, Lin Shiyin also had no objection: "That's good."
Afterwards, the boat landed very close to Shenhou's Mansion, and Jiang Rong took Li Shishi to disembark first, preparing to go to Shenhou's Mansion.
The rest of the people headed back, preparing to go back to the vicinity of Hongshi, and then send the three frightened singers off the boat and back to Furongxie.
Yuan Suiyun has always done things properly, Jiang Rong has nothing to worry about.
On the contrary, Li Shishi's unprovoked attack sounds more terrifying.
Of course, I thought so, but when faced with the worried look of the famous beauty in the capital, Jiang Rong still chose to comfort and appease.
Jiang Rongdao: "My senior brother and his apprentices are very powerful. I believe that if you entrust this matter to them, they will definitely find out the truth and let you sleep peacefully."
Hearing this, Li Shishi covered his mouth with a chuckle and said, "I know that."
What she was really worried about was something else.
Li Shishi felt that with Zhuge Shenhou's power, he would be able to guess who the mysterious guest was after listening to her description.
However, it won't sound good to say this kind of thing.
It turned out that her prediction was right.
Following Jiang Rong into the Shenhou Mansion, and after briefly explaining the whole matter, the commander of the imperial army, who made the court civil and military, and even the emperor himself dare not neglect easily, almost completely frowned.
Zhuge Shenhou said: "If the entourage brought by Miss Li's distinguished guest can't stop this person, then his martial arts are indeed worthy of the top."
Jiang Rong: "???"
She was confused when she heard it: "Does brother know Miss Li's guest?"
Zhuge Shenhou glanced at her and said, "It's more than acquaintance."
Jiang Rong said again: "???"
"I go to court every day, and I can see you every day." He said, "The official title is also bestowed by him."
Jiang Rong: "..." The emperor, the emperor?
Oh my god, so the emperor of Song Dynasty really sneaks around brothels? !
If it wasn't inappropriate to say this in front of Zhuge Shenhou, Jiang Rong really wanted to say that with such an emperor, it would be a strange thing that the country would not perish...
In the city of Bianjing, the Feiqiao Hongshi is brightly lit, reflecting the radiance of the Bianhe River that divides the capital into two, which is fascinating.
Jiang Rong and the others sat on the painting boat, slowly heading east along the current.
Before she had traveled far, she saw the cloud platform with countless golden and red lights hanging in front of her.
"Is that Miss Li Shishi going to perform dances here?" Lin Shiyin didn't go out very often, so she didn't know much about these capital gossips, so when she asked now, her tone was uncertain.
"Jiyuelou's Xiao Er told me so, that Yuanwai Zhang spends a lot of money and only asks for a dance with a beautiful woman." Jiang Rong nodded and replied like this.
"Then her dancing posture must be extremely beautiful." Lin Shiyin said again.
Jiang Rong couldn't answer this question, because she had never seen it before.
She originally wanted to say that she didn't know if Li Shishi danced beautifully or not, but she knew that he must also be a great beauty.However, before they could speak, Jiang Yi who was sitting on their left suddenly answered first.
Jiang Yidao: "I have also heard some customers in the shop talk about this in the past two days."
"They said that Miss Shishi couldn't be moved easily. Zhang Yuanwai threw thousands of dollars for her dance, but it was actually used to help the victims outside the city."
"It is said that the porridge sheds for the relief of the victims were all set up and the porridge began to be distributed, and Miss Shi Shi let go."
Jiang Rong: "Wow, people are beautiful and kind."
Lin Shiyin was also very emotional: "It turned out to be so."
They were talking about this on the painting boat, so Bai Tianyu and Li Xunhuan next door naturally heard it too.
During the day, Yu turned around and added to the topic: "If it wasn't beautiful, why would so many people gather on the river today just to take a look at her."
He consciously found a topic that he could chat with them, and he was quite satisfied after finishing speaking, but as soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Suiyun put down his wine cup and laughed.
Yuan Suiyun said: "It is said that the Master of the Divine Sword Hall is one of the best romantic talents in the Jianghu. I thought it was a mistake in the rumors of the Jianghu, but I didn't expect it to be an exaggeration."
Bai Baiyu: "???" Is this person mocking me?
In front of the villain Gu Bawanghua that he was thinking about, he wanted to refute a few words, but based on his past deeds, it was really difficult to refute the word romantic.
At least he searched and searched, but couldn't find any words to immediately wash away his reputation as a romantic.

Bai Baiyu: "..."

"Huh? Okay." Jiang Rong didn't show politeness to her, and opened his mouth to bite.
The sweet taste spread between her lips and teeth, she squinted her eyes, and said happily: "It's really sweet! Thank you, sister Shiyin!"
When Lin Shiyin came here, she knew that everything on the boat today was arranged by her cousin. Hearing what she said, she hurriedly smiled and said: "I just picked and picked. I don't want my sister to thank you. It's better to thank you." Mr. Yi is thoughtful."
Jiang Yi was caught off guard by the name-calling by his future business partners, so he hurriedly sat up straight and said, "Wherever you like, it's fine."
Jiang Rong ate the pomegranate, because she had straightened her back for a while, and now with Lin Shiyin supporting her, she leaned on her beautiful sister confidently and boldly, and said while eating: "That's right, sister Shiyin, you don't have to be polite to my brother, he has money There are many."
After a few jokes like this, the much-anticipated number one oiran in the capital finally came out of the curtain stepping on the sound of the piano that was about to play to its climax.
Contrary to what many people imagined, she was dressed very simply, and there were no rings on her head or body.

So he also smiled, took off the Impatiens petals on his shoulders, put them on the table in front of him, pushed them with the wine cup, and sent them to Jiang Rong.
Jiang Rong: "?"
He continued to laugh: "I see that you are about to reach out into the water to fish."
Jiang Rong's intention was to be seen through, and he didn't feel embarrassed. Instead, he explained solemnly: "Everyone is robbing, I want to be happy."
Holding the wine glass, with gentle eyes, he said: "Then I will share my happiness with you."
Jiang Rong wanted to say thank you for your generosity, but before the first syllable was uttered, the prosperous scene in front of him changed.
The cloud platform, which was standing firmly in the water, suddenly trembled and made a creaking sound that almost overwhelmed the sound of the piano.
Suddenly, the singers on the stage could not keep their minds and continue to play the piano, their complexions turned pale, and they were all in a mess.
Amongst the panic, the calmest one was undoubtedly Li Shishi in the center of Yuntai.
She didn't even put away her dancing movements completely, and said quickly, "Everyone, don't panic!"
If Yuntai had only trembled a little and was slammed by her, the singers might not have panicked so much.
However, the next moment, someone noticed that the green bamboos used to build the platform under their feet had slowly spread apart.
"The cloud platform is about to fall!"
"what!"
"Help... help!"
"Senior sister, what should we do now?"
All these sounds sounded almost at the same time.
Not to mention that Li Shishi, who was also on the stage, couldn't answer, even many people in the audience were nervous and exclaimed together.
Sitting on the painting boat, Jiang Rong watched in shock.
With only half a breath, she made up her mind, straightened up and slapped the table, jumped up from the boat, stepped on the unthankful Hanyu on the water, and swept all the way up the platform with her strength.
In the chaos, several singers had already jumped off the platform with their zithers in their arms, and landed on the small boat on the right.
It's just that the small boat can't accommodate too many people, even if the remaining people ran to the side of the boat, there was no place to stand.
Li Shishi originally had a chance to go down, but she gave it to the singer beside her who was about to cry.
After giving way, the green bamboos under his feet scattered one by one, and the sound of falling into the water became louder and louder.
She knew that in a few moments, this beautiful cloud platform would completely collapse.
And just when she was ready to fall into the water, she heard a clear and pleasant voice in the air.
The voice said: "Ms. Shi Shi, give me your hand!"
Li Shishi raised his eyes, and saw a figure as white as a moon in the midst of the lights.
It was a girl who looked only twenty or eight years old.
The girl stretched out her hand towards her, her expression and eyes showed that there was no need to worry.
Li Shishi didn't think about it, he handed over his hand and shook it.
Then she was hugged by the waist.
The sound of the wind whistling past her ears, mixed with the sound of the platform continuing to collapse, she was concerned about the sisters on the platform who hadn't had time to get on the boat like her, so she couldn't help opening her mouth: "Girl—"
The girl who saved her was naturally Jiang Rong.
Jiang Rong knew what she was worried about by hearing her tone, and said, "Don't worry, my friends have already rescued the other three girls. If you don't believe me, look down."
Everything happened in the blink of an eye, no matter how calm Li Shishi was, without knowing martial arts, he couldn't see the overall situation.
But now she was held in Jiang Rong's arms, and when she lowered her head to look, it was clear.
Her three sisters were all well taken down at this moment, and they never fell into the water.
Li Shishi heaved a sigh of relief, and was about to say thanks, when he saw one of the handsome young men in black suddenly hugged someone and raised his eyes, and said, "Hey, it turns out that Valley Master Jiang also regards me as a friend?"
Jiang Rong: "..." Are you still kicking your nose on your face?
She gritted her teeth, turned her head and said loudly to Li Shishi: "Miss Shishi, let me correct what I just said, it's my two friends and a piece of dog skin plaster that I can't get rid of."
Bai Tianyu, who was stamped with a dog skin plaster, was also not angry. He landed on the boat with the rescued singer in his arms, and said with a playful smile: "Since Guzhu Jiang said so, then I will follow Guzhu Jiang from now on. Is it justified?"
He was born well, even if he said the stalking words outright and confidently, it seemed reasonable to others.
At least the singer who had just been rescued by his hero couldn't help but chuckled.
After Jiang Rong put Li Shishi down, she decided to learn her lesson and directly ignore this psychopath who became more energetic the more she disliked her.
She let go of her hand, met the gaze of the number one oiran in the capital, and said: "Miss Shishi was just shocked, but luckily nothing happened."
Li Shishi immediately bowed his body and thanked: "Thanks to the girl."
For Jiang Rong, it is not difficult to save someone at a critical moment, but she can't figure it out, why did the gimbal suddenly fall down?And it fell so quickly, as if it was planned...
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look again at the river surrounded by Han.
What came into view was a sea of fire on the water. Fortunately, the river was so fast that these fires burned for a while, and then quickly extinguished.
Jiang Rong couldn't help frowning, and said: "Miss Shi Shi, I don't think this is an accident. Has anyone offended you recently?"
Hearing this, Li Shishi thought about it for a moment, and suddenly his face darkened.
But she didn't answer immediately, instead she looked around.
Jiang Rong: "?"
There was a chaos just now, which disturbed many people watching along the river bank. Although people have been rescued at this moment, the scene has not yet recovered.
Compared with the shore where people are pushing and shoving everywhere, the river is relatively calm.
Looking at Li Shishi's expression, Jiang Rong knew that she must know something, or that she had a guessing direction.
It's just that everyone met by chance, so she can't feel at ease to say it here.
In the heart of repaying the wonderful song and dance tonight, Jiang Rong invited him into the cabin and took the initiative to reveal his identity.
Jiang Rongdao: "Miss Shi Shi, what happened tonight, even if it was not for your life, there is absolutely no good intentions. If you know something, you may as well speak up. I can ask my senior brother to find out for you."
"My senior brother is the prince of the Sixth Five-Year God who was appointed by the emperor himself, and the instructor of the forbidden army. His four apprentices have solved major cases, and they will definitely help you."
Li Shishi was quite calm at the beginning, but when he heard "the six or five gods proclaimed by the son of heaven", he was stunned: "Young lady's brother is... is it the Zhuge god?"
Jiang Rong shrugged: "Unless there is a second Imperial Army instructor in the capital."
"To tell you the truth, I do have some guesses about what happened tonight." Li Shishi said, "I didn't say it just now, it's not that I don't believe in the girl, but I can't be sure."
Jiang Rong said it's okay, you can rest assured.
"For such a big matter, we have to check it out."
Li Shishi pondered for a moment, and said: "A few days ago, someone sneaked into my room in the middle of the night."
Furong Pavilion is a brothel, as long as you have money, you can go in if you want.
But Li Shishi's boudoir cannot be opened with money.
She is well-known, talented and beautiful, and praised by literati and knight-errants. No matter how much money she spends on someone she doesn't want to meet, Fu Rongxie has the confidence to refuse.
And most of the time, she is indeed rarely willing to meet those who only have money.
"At that time, I was entertaining a guest with a very secret identity." Li Shishi said, "Even my maid didn't know about it, she just thought I had rested."
"Fortunately, the guest brought a lot of entourages. The entourage heard the sound of someone sneaking into the room. They fought with him and forced the person back. Unfortunately, they failed to catch him."
Jiang Rong: "So, that man's martial arts is very high?"
Li Shishi nodded: "According to the guest's followers, that person's martial arts can be compared with the top masters in Beijing."
"I thought he was coming for my guests, because after that night, no one visited my room in the middle of the night." Speaking of this, she paused, "But according to tonight, maybe I was wrong. "
Jiang Rong is not good at reasoning, so he just felt that the matter was more complicated than he imagined, so he asked her: "If you don't mind, I will take you to the Shenhou Mansion in a while, and tell the situation to my brother and the others." Say it?"
Of course Li Shishi didn't mind, but she was concerned about her sisters. After agreeing, she couldn't hold back and said: "Can I send the frightened sisters back first?"
Jiang Rong: "If you trust me, you might as well leave this matter to me, and I will let my friend send them back to Furongxie safely."
Master Li thought for a while, nodded and agreed: "Okay."
When Jiang Rong heard the words, he immediately stretched out half of his body, begging Yuan Suiyun outside the cabin.
Yuan Suiyun and Li Xunhuan Bai Baiyu had just rescued people together, knowing that these singers were greatly frightened, they didn't want to reject Jiang Rong, so they agreed without thinking too much.
"Good," he said.
"Then I'll go with you too." Jiang Yi immediately volunteered to follow.
"Help me send Sister Shiyin to me." Jiang Rong had other arrangements.
"Ah?" Jiang Yi didn't think it was necessary at all, his cousin was still there.
In fact, when she said that, Lin Shiyin was taken aback.
Lin Shiyin waved her hand and said, "Don't bother Mr. Yi, I'll just go back with my cousin."
Jiang Rong blinked and said, but I can't bear to let my sister and Li Tanhua go back to Li Garden.
"Didn't we agree, swim across the Bian River tonight, and you will stay with me for a few days."
Lin Shiyin did remember this, Jiang Rong mentioned it when they met at the intersection earlier.
However, with the turmoil on the river tonight, Jiang Rong seemed to want to take Li Shishi to the Shenhou Mansion. Lin Shiyin felt that it would be better for him to go back to Li Garden first and wait for her to settle the matter.To save her from having to take care of such trivial things as entertaining herself while she is busy, causing trouble to her.
She told Jiang Rong her concerns, Jiang Rong shook her head and said, "You think too much! Entertaining Sister Shiyin is not a troublesome thing."
Speaking of this, Lin Shiyin also had no objection: "That's good."
Afterwards, the boat landed very close to Shenhou's Mansion, and Jiang Rong took Li Shishi to disembark first, preparing to go to Shenhou's Mansion.
The rest of the people headed back, preparing to go back to the vicinity of Hongshi, and then send the three frightened singers off the boat and back to Furongxie.
Yuan Suiyun has always done things properly, Jiang Rong has nothing to worry about.
On the contrary, Li Shishi's unprovoked attack sounds more terrifying.
Of course, I thought so, but when faced with the worried look of the famous beauty in the capital, Jiang Rong still chose to comfort and appease.
Jiang Rongdao: "My senior brother and his apprentices are very powerful. I believe that if you entrust this matter to them, they will definitely find out the truth and let you sleep peacefully."
Hearing this, Li Shishi covered his mouth with a chuckle and said, "I know that."
What she was really worried about was something else.
Li Shishi felt that with Zhuge Shenhou's power, he would be able to guess who the mysterious guest was after listening to her description.
However, it won't sound good to say this kind of thing.
It turned out that her prediction was right.
Following Jiang Rong into the Shenhou Mansion, and after briefly explaining the whole matter, the commander of the imperial army, who made the court civil and military, and even the emperor himself dare not neglect easily, almost completely frowned.
Zhuge Shenhou said: "If the entourage brought by Miss Li's distinguished guest can't stop this person, then his martial arts are indeed worthy of the top."
Jiang Rong: "???"
She was confused when she heard it: "Does brother know Miss Li's guest?"
Zhuge Shenhou glanced at her and said, "It's more than acquaintance."
Jiang Rong said again: "???"
"I go to court every day, and I can see you every day." He said, "The official title is also bestowed by him."
Jiang Rong: "..." The emperor, the emperor?
Oh my god, so the emperor of Song Dynasty really sneaks around brothels? !
If it wasn't inappropriate to say this in front of Zhuge Shenhou, Jiang Rong really wanted to say that with such an emperor, it would be a strange thing that the country would not perish...
