Before Jiang Rong crossed over, he also watched some film and television dramas or novels with the background of Song and Jin Dynasties.

Therefore, she is not completely unaware of some legends about Song Huizong's obsession with the famous prostitute Li Shishi.

But before tonight, she had been listening to these as stories. After all, such a thing as building a tunnel from the palace to go to Li Shishi's boudoir is very fantasy, not like what the emperor did.

As a result, Zhuge Shenhou told her now that this is not a story and legend made up by later generations, but it is true.

Jiang Rong: "..."

She calmed down for a while, and said: "That is to say, the person who sneaked into Miss Shi Shi's room was actually repelled by the masters brought by His Majesty?"

Li Shishi and Zhuge Shenhou heard the words and nodded at the same time.

If you fight alone, most of the masters in the palace are not the opponents of the top masters in the world.

However, the masters are well-trained and very good at cooperating to deal with the enemy. In most cases, a group of people will not miss.

Those who can make them miss without stopping must have unfathomable martial arts.

There is no reason why Zhuge Shenhou, the head of the imperial army, did not know about such a thing, but unfortunately the emperor also probably knew that sneaking out of the palace would disgrace the oiran, so he ordered them to keep their mouths shut.

If Li Shishi had another accident on the river tonight, and was rescued by Jiang Rong and taken to Shenhou Mansion, this matter would still be a secret.

Thinking of this, Zhuge Shenhou couldn't help but sighed.

He couldn't say that the emperor's actions were absurd, so he could only put aside this topic for the time being, and bring the focus back to tonight's accident.

Zhuge Shenhou said: "I will send iron hands to investigate what happened tonight."

"It is impossible for the cloud platform to collapse without any traces. As long as you are willing to investigate, you will be able to find some clues."

"Thank you, God." Li Shishi immediately bowed and saluted.

"Miss Li, you don't have to be polite." Zhuge Shenhou raised his hand to stop him, "There are many doubts about this matter, and it involves His Majesty. The Shenhou Mansion should investigate thoroughly."

The two of them didn't say too many polite words, and they stopped after a while.

Li Shishi has lived in the world for a long time, and he knows more news about the world than ordinary women in the world.She also has great admiration for Zhuge Shenhou and his disciples.

Now that the other party agreed to investigate thoroughly for her, she relaxed most of her heart and prepared to go back to Furong Pavilion.

But just when she was about to say goodbye, Jiang Rong, who had saved her, suddenly made a sound.

Jiang Rongdao: "If that person is targeting Miss Shi Shi, Miss Shi Shi will be in danger before the investigation is made."

Li Shishi heard the words, pondered for a moment, and said: "But he never visited my room in the past two days."

Jiang Rong: "He suffered a lot from the siege of big insiders before, it's normal not to show up for a short period of time, plus others are in the capital, they must have heard about Zhang Yuanwai throwing thousands of dollars to beg you to dance, so instead of risking If you risk breaking into your boudoir again, it is better to take advantage of the chaotic place full of people tonight."

"What Rong Rong said is true." Zhuge Shenhou showed his approval, "Your Majesty's meeting with Miss Li is extremely secret, and few of the Korean, Chinese and military officials know about it. Under such circumstances, this person naturally cannot judge Miss Li. Is there still a master hidden in the room?"

But this inability to judge is, after all, temporary.

After losing the excellent opportunity to perform dances on the Qixi Festival, this person may not go to Furong Pavilion to try again.

No matter how much the emperor liked Li Shishi, it was impossible for him to stay in the brothel all the time, otherwise it would be impossible to hide this matter. Therefore, Furong Pavilion at this time is actually a very dangerous place for Li Shishi.

Master Li was not too surprised after hearing what their brothers and sisters said.

She has always been smart, these concerns, even if they don't talk about them, she is very clear in her heart.

But so what?

She smiled wryly, and said: "I am a dusty duckweed, if I don't go back to Furong Pavilion, where can I go?"

Since the selection of the number one oiran in the capital, more people want to see her than before.

But out of a hundred people who wanted to see her, maybe they couldn't find a single person who respected her.

They like her beauty, appreciate her talent, but stay away from being with her seriously.

This is true for everyone from the emperor to the poor scholar who is still studying for fame.

Master Li has seen a lot, so he doesn't expect anything.

She knew she had nowhere else to go.

Jiang Rong couldn't bear to see her eyes full of sadness and resignation to her fate.

She thought for a while, and said: "Miss Shishi, if you don't mind, you can stay at my house until the truth comes to light."

"In this capital, there should not be many people who dare to come to my place and attack you."

Li Shishi was stunned when he heard this, and immediately said: "This is too troublesome girl, how can I make it?"

Jiang Rong smiled: "Is it troublesome? I don't think so."

"At the end of the day, it's just borrowing the fame of the elders in my family." She said, "But the fame is not in vain. If the nurses and girls are considerate, why not do it?"

In order to convince Li Shishi, after saying this, Jiang Rong immediately looked at Zhuge Shenhou, raised his eyebrows and asked him to make a statement: "Do you think so, brother?"

Zhuge Shenhou stroked his beard and said that there is actually a better way.

"what?"

"Catch the turtle in the urn."

Anyway, this matter has to be thoroughly investigated, so it's better to let that master think that Li Shishi returned to Furongxie after being frightened.

In this way, the chances of him doing it again will increase greatly.

Once he does it again, he will reveal more of his feet, which is convenient for iron hands to catch and investigate.

When Jiang Rong heard this, he nodded quickly and said, "This method is good!"

"Then let's do it like this." Zhuge Shenhou quickly made a decision, "I'll send someone to arrange a carriage for you, you take Miss Li back to your temporary residence, and the other empty one will be escorted back to Furongxie."

Speaking of this, Master Li couldn't refuse this arrangement anymore.

She was very grateful and wanted to thank her, but felt that she had nothing to gain, so she could only solemnly express: "I will remember the kindness between Shenhou and Miss."

Jiang Rong waved his hand: "Miss Teacher, don't take it too seriously."

"If you're really sorry, just show me the whole dance tonight."

Compared to her, Zhuge Shenhou's response was much more serious.

Although he didn't make a promise, he only said that he would try his best, but this sentence alone can almost reassure people.

Not long afterward, both carriages were ready.

Jiang Rong took Li Shishi into one of them, locked the door tightly, and left Shenhou Mansion in the dark.

On the way, in order to make Li Shishi happy, she took the initiative to ask about the piece that was played on the Bian River tonight.

She said she had never heard of it before, and asked friends in the same industry, and everyone speculated whether it was written by Li Shishi himself.

Li Shishi: "It is true that I wrote the song, but it is also thanks to the sisters in Furong Pavilion that I can play tonight's momentum."

Jiang Rong immediately seized the opportunity to praise, in order to prove that she was not just sycophant, she also recounted what Li Xunhuan and Yuan Suiyun had said about the song.

"My two friends are both from aristocratic families, and each has better taste than the other," she said.

"Xiao Li Tanhua's name, I have also heard of it." Li Shishi said, "I just didn't expect him to be here tonight, and he saved one of my sisters."

After talking like this all the way, when they finally returned to the end of West Cross Street, there was no stranger between Jiang Rong and Li Shishi.

Because Li Shishi said that he could call her by her name directly instead of adding girl every time, Jiang Rong immediately said that she could call herself Rongrong.

The two not only changed their address to each other, but even walked into the main hall arm in arm after getting off the carriage.

The main hall was lit with lights, Jiang Yiyuan Suiyun and Lin Shiyin were there.

They were all very surprised to see that Jiang Rong had brought Li Shishi back after he had been to Shenhou Mansion.

Facing the three of them, Jiang Rong had nothing to hide. He talked about what he had discussed in the Shenhou Mansion, and finally said: "In short, before my second nephew finds out the truth, the teacher will live here first."

"No problem, no problem." As the real house owner, Jiang Yi deserved it the fastest.

After answering, he didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly said: "Um... I heard that Miss Shishi is not only proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also good at embroidery?"

Jiang Rong raised his forehead: "...Master, it's not easy to go out these days, so you should give up on it."

Jiang Yi: "That's right."

Li Shishi was curious and wanted to repay Jiang Rong's help this time without hesitation.

So after thinking for a while, she opened her mouth and said, "I don't know what Mr. Jiang wants someone to embroider?"

"He doesn't want to ask someone to embroider something, he just hopes to invite some outstanding embroiderers to guide the embroiderers in his shop." Jiang Rong explained, "If you have the heart, wait until Tie Shou finds out what happened tonight before helping her." It's not too late for him to do this."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Shiyin, who was sitting next to Jiang Yi and Yuan Suiyun, also nodded and said: "Yes, for Miss Shi Shi, the most important thing right now is to cooperate with Shenhou Mansion to find out the truth as soon as possible."

Perhaps because of their outstanding looks and talents, Li Shishi and Lin Shiyin quickly became familiar with each other after a short chat.

The three girls got together and had almost endless conversations, which made it completely impossible for Jiang Yi and Yuan Suiyun, who were planning to drink more tea in the main hall, to get in their mouths.

Jiang Yi: "..."

Yuan Suiyun also: "..."

After drinking the last sip, the two looked at each other, and they simply backed out together, leaving the space for the three of them.

In the days that followed, this "sense of being superfluous" appeared more and more frequently.

Until news came from the Shenhou Mansion that the "turtle" had been caught.

When the news came, Lin Shiyin happened to be away, so she followed Jiang Yi to his Xiufang, and was going to teach those embroiderers a new embroidery method that she and Li Shishi had researched and designed.

Yuan Suiyun is here, he found a piano for them two days ago, and now he is tuning it himself.

The attendant entered the yard, bowed to the shadow under the porch by the water and reported back, saying that catcher Sheng had come, and he was supposed to be looking for a girl.

As soon as Jiang Rong heard that he was ruthless, he guessed that the case of Li Shishi's attack had some clues. He hurriedly supported the pillar to get up, and took his hand out of the cool pool water, saying: "Please."

"Already invited to the flower hall." The attendant replied.

"Then serve him tea first." Jiang Rong said again, "Tell him that I will change my clothes and go see him."

The summer in the capital is hot, and she can't stay in the house, and she doesn't want to be exposed to the sun, so she often leans on this promenade next to the rockery and close to the pond, and stretches her hands into the water to cool down.

There are usually no guests here, and she is so nonsense, but no one stops her.

But dragging two dripping sleeves to see the great nephew, it is not suitable for an elder after all.

Accompanied by Li Shishi, he went back and changed his clothes before Jiang Rong hurried to the flower hall.

When she entered, there was not only Wu Qing sitting inside, but also Yuan Suiyun.

These two people should have greeted each other and informed them of their identities. Now they are sitting face to face drinking tea together, looking harmonious.

Hearing Jiang Rong coming, he ruthlessly put down the teacup in his hand, raised his eyes to look over, and called the little uncle as he did a few times before.

Jiang Rong pulled Li Shishi over to sit down, and after sitting down, he asked: "How is it? Did the iron hand find something?"

Ruthlessly heard the words, glanced across her face full of curiosity and anticipation, paused for a moment before saying: "Second Junior Brother has caught someone."

Jiang Rong: "!"

Ruthlessly continued: "But this person has a very tight mouth, no one in the Shenhou Mansion interrogated him, and they didn't say a word."

"Then why are you here?" Jiang Rong asked.

"Uncle Shi wants to ask Miss Li to go to the Shenhou Mansion to have a look at that person." Wuqing said, "If Miss Li happens to know him, it will be easier to investigate."

Hearing what he said, Li Shishi immediately agreed and expressed his willingness to go to Shenhou Mansion.

Jiang Rong wanted to go with him, but was stopped by Li Shishi.

Li Shishi said: "Before going out, Shiyin said that she would come back to cook crabs with us in the afternoon. If we all go to Shenhou Mansion, wouldn't she want another person?"

Jiang Rong: "...Yes."

Maybe because she heard the entanglement in her tone, the Wuqing who was sitting in the wheelchair suddenly interjected: "Don't worry, little uncle, I will personally send Miss Li back after seeing who the second junior brother has caught."

Jiang Rong: Oh my god, the master nephew is so caring!

Jiang Rong thought for a while, and said: "Since you are going to send Shi Shi back, how about having dinner here together?"

Hearing the invitation, Wuqing slightly hooked the corners of her lips and agreed.

"Then it's settled." She got up from the chair, "I'll take you to the door."

Wuqing wanted to say no, but Yuan Suiyun, who was sitting on her right hand, caught a glimpse from the corner of her eye, paused, and nodded.

The three left the flower hall and walked towards the door. Before going out, Wuqing suddenly took out a small box of tea from her sleeve and gave it to her.

Jiang Rong recognized that it was the Yunding Xueya he had given away before, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Didn't I say it last time, you can keep it for yourself in the future, so you don't need to give it to me."

Wuqing shook her head slightly, saying that this new box of Yunding Xueya was originally a gift from her, and His Majesty rewarded it.

Jiang Rong: "???"

"I'm afraid that your majesty will be angry if you go to the Furong Pavilion. Before Shenhou Mansion investigated the attack on Miss Li, Uncle Shi told your majesty the plan and asked him to cooperate for a while."

"His Majesty learned that it was the little uncle who rescued Miss Li, and he said that he would reward the Shenhou Mansion, so he gave him another box."

"So this box should belong to the little uncle."

Jiang Rong: "..." Well, that's fine.
