Little villain [Comprehensive martial arts]

During the shopping spree in Hongshi yesterday, Jiang Rong promised Jiang Yi that when the gift was ready, whether it was Lin Shiyin or Li Shishi, she would help deliver it in person to show his sincerity.

Jiang Yi was so grateful that he almost didn't buy her two sets of jewelry of different colors, and finally asked her to stop her.

Of course, at that time, she didn't know how rich he was now.

Considering the distance between Li Yuan and Furongxie, she and Lin Li haven't been together for a while. Today, to help her brother give a gift, Jiang Rong booked a private room in Lingxian Tower and invited them together. The idea of ​​eating, chatting and watching the scenery.

Therefore, early this morning, she personally took up a pen, wrote two invitation cards, and sent people to Li Yuan and Furong Pavilion.

When she was writing the invitation, Ye Gucheng stood on tiptoe at the table to read, frowning while reading, saying why it was different from her usual handwriting.

Jiang Rong: "The words I usually write?"

He answered obediently: "Those prescriptions before."

Jiang Rong wondered if it would be the same, whether the drafted prescription should be shown to others, but these two invitations were to be sent to the beautiful young lady, and the level of seriousness was incomparable.

But to be honest, it is inevitable that she might be suspected of having a crooked child, so after pondering for a while, she explained to him solemnly that it is okay to write scribbled words for herself, but not for others.

Ye Gucheng: "But I also saw it."

Jiang Rong: "..." This kid is really good at talking to death.

She pinched his head angrily, and said, "It's not that I showed you."

"Okay, I'm done writing, let's go and practice swords with you."

When Ye Gucheng heard the second half of the sentence, his expression immediately became brighter, and his eyes were much brighter than before.

So Jiang Rong couldn't get angry anymore, and after handing over the invitation to his servants, he went to the pond to accompany Ye Gucheng to dismantle the tricks.

She didn't use a sword, but when she was in the Valley of the Evil, she had been taught by Yan Nantian to Yuan Suiyun and Jiang Yi for many years, and her understanding of various sword moves had long surpassed that of ordinary swordsmen.

Not to mention, after she was nine years old, she still had a long period of time to compete regularly with Yuan Suiyun.

Based on her level, it's not a problem to take a few tricks with the young Baiyun City Lord who just started using a wooden sword.

But the reason why geniuses are geniuses is because they learn things differently from ordinary people.

Just like when she dared to have doubts about the wooden halberd that Wei Qingqing gave her when she was a child, Ye Gucheng was quite good at drawing inferences when he first practiced swords.

Jiang Rong split moves with him. Although there is no pressure to win or lose, he is often surprised by some of the moves he uses.

Those moves are almost all from the Divine Sword Jue. He should have memorized them while watching Yuan Suiyun practicing swords, but after memorizing them, he actually added some changes without authorization? !

Even if Jiang Rong knew that he would reach the pinnacle of swordsmanship in the future, he couldn't help but be speechless.

She felt that Yan Nantian would definitely like him when he went to the south of the Yangtze River to visit Yan Nantian after all the affairs in the capital were over next year.

After practicing for more than half an hour, the servants sent out to deliver the invitations reported back, saying that the invitations had been delivered safely, and at the same time brought back responses from Lin Shiyin and Li Shishi.

Both of them agreed to the invitation, and they will definitely arrive at Lingxian Tower on time.

In the evening, Jiang Rong went out with a cart of gifts.

Before leaving, Jiang Yite worriedly confessed that he must thank him in place.

She was helpless: "Then why don't you go with me and thank you personally?"

She was trying to stop him, but after he thought about it, he dropped the gift slip in his hand and chased after him and climbed into the carriage.

"That makes sense," he said, "I'd better go there."

Jiang Rong: "..."

All right, then you are happy.

The carriage headed east along the long street, and when it entered the bustling Hongshi, the sky was already slightly sinking.

Jiang Rong and Jiang Yi walked into Lingxian Tower together, went to the private room she had ordered, and found that Lin Shiyin and Li Shishi were already there, drinking tea and chatting.

The two of them were a little surprised when they saw Jiang Yi. After all, Jiang Rong's invitation said a gathering of three people.

Therefore, Jiang Rong took the lead in explaining as soon as he entered.

"My brother was afraid that my thanks would be insincere, so he came here in person." She said, "You don't have to be restrained, just treat him as the one who pays the bill."

Jiang Yi was not angry either, and said with a smile that he was supposed to invite this meal.

"The two of you helped me a lot before, and as the year approaches, I will be a good student to repay you."

"Young Master Yi, you are being polite." Lin Shiyin said, "Shishi and I are just idle and have nothing to do, so we just do it as we please."

As soon as she finished speaking, a melodious piano sound suddenly came from the Bian River downstairs outside the window.

The sound of the piano was from far to near, apparently coming from a certain boat on the river, causing Jiang Rong to open the window with some concern, and glanced out.

"In this winter, there are still people having fun on the river? They are not afraid of falling into the water and freezing." Jiang Rongyu was puzzled.

"Rong Rong doesn't know something." Li Shishi suddenly explained, "The boat in the river has now overwhelmed Fu Rongxie."

Jiang Rong: "Huh??"

Li Shishi: "This boat stops outside the city during the day and enters the city in the evening. It is divided into three floors. It is said that the girls on the third floor are better than most of the courtesans in the spring buildings in Beijing."

Although Jiang Rong usually pays close attention to the gossip in the capital, she doesn't know much about these things in the court of love.

Now hearing what Li Shishi said, she couldn't help being surprised: "Such a big deal? Who is the owner of the ship?"

Li Shishi shook his head and said that she didn't know about it.

"When it first appeared a few days ago, some colleagues wanted to send people in to investigate, but nothing useful was found out." Li Shishi said, "I only know that there are many traps on board, and there are expert defenses in the dark. No offence."

Most of the people who can open the Qinlou Chu Pavilion on the border of the capital are not small people.

But now this group of people combined, it seems that they don't have the guts to provoke the owner of the huge boat in the river, which is very interesting.

Jiang Rong thought for a moment, then asked again: "So, the business on this ship must be quite good."

Li Shishi said that it was really good, and after a few days, it can be said that it is getting better and better.

Jiang Rong: "No one in Beijing can match the owner of the ship's imposing manner, so boarding the ship might not be cheap?"

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Yi on the side became anxious first.

"Wait." He took Jiang Rong's arm, "Why do I hear that you seem to be very interested? Do you still want to go to the boat?"

After all, without waiting for Jiang Rong to say yes or no, he took the lead in saying firmly: "No, you can't go."

Jiang Rong: "...Who said I'm going?"

Jiang Yi: "If you don't go, what are you doing so carefully?"

Jiang Rong squinted his eyes and said that of course it was for later use.

"Use?" He was confused, "What is the use?"

"The ship does not enter the city during the day, but enters the city in the evening, and it has done so much business, which is enough to prove that it can enter and exit unimpeded." Jiang Rong analyzed seriously, "This year's harvest is not good, there are many people who have left the capital, and there is a famine. The gate inspection is extremely strict, and many caravans have lined up outside the city for half a month, but they may not be able to enter, but this ship can enter and exit without hindrance, what does this mean?"

"It means that there are people behind them." Li Shishi said, "And the background is not small."

"At such a critical juncture, no matter how rich a businessman is, it is impossible for the guards to open their mouths once a day to take risks." Jiang Rong became more and more certain, "So there is only one possibility, and that is the owner of this ship. You can directly mobilize and order the guarding army."

For this sake, how could it be so small?

Having said that, Jiang Yi also reacted: "You mean, which high-ranking official probably belongs to this boat?"

Jiang Rong: "To be precise, it should be made by a high-ranking official to solicit money."

Having said that, Jiang Rong felt that it was necessary for him to tell the Shenhou Mansion the news, and he intuitively told her that most of this matter had something to do with the little lord who was only a wall away from her.

Just like what she said to Su Mengzhen before, when the sea gold cave was destroyed, Fang Ying saw that he had lost a great fortune, and he must think about new ones, otherwise, he might not be able to explain it to Xiang Cai.

Now suddenly there is such a boat in the Bianhe River that compares with Jingzhong Fengyuefang. If it has nothing to do with him, Jiang Rong will not believe it even if he thinks about it with his toes.

However, this matter needs to be discussed in the long term. If we continue to talk about it now, it will inevitably spoil the scenery.

"Forget it." Jiang Rong said, "Don't talk about boats or boats, let's get together after a long time, let's have dinner first."

Only then did Lin Shiyin interject: "It turns out that Rongmei still remembers that she came for dinner."

Jiang Rong looked down, and found that at some point, the porcelain bowl in front of him had already filled several dishes that he usually likes to eat.

She immediately leaned over and acted like a baby: "Sister Shiyin, don't just focus on me, you eat too."

Compared to when we first met in Li Yuan in April, Lin Shiyin's complexion looked much better now.

She was born soft and quiet, and when her complexion was bad, she was sad and had a unique temperament; now that her complexion is good, she is even more radiant, making one's heart tremble.

Jiang Rong was in a very happy mood, remembering the carefully selected jewelry for the two of them yesterday, hurriedly put down his chopsticks, and found the two smallest boxes from the gifts brought by their siblings.

"These two pairs of jadeite earrings are taken from the same piece of jadeite as the pair on my ears. They are both crystal clear and of good quality." Jiang Rong said, "There is only a slight difference in the body of the earrings. We are a pair."

Both Lin Shiyin and Li Shishi are used to seeing good things, especially Li Shishi who is hard to find nowadays.

Li Shishi only glanced at it, and he saw that the earrings were worth a lot.

"This is too expensive," she said.

"Yes." Lin Shiyin echoed, "Mei Rong doesn't have to be so polite with us. You should keep these two pairs of pendants for yourself. You are born white, so wearing jadeite is just right."

Jiang Rong: "..."

Uh, but among the gifts my brother prepared for you, this one is considered cheap.

When she was silent, Jiang Yi spoke.

Jiang Yi said: "You two should be polite. You are Rong Rong's friends and you also helped me with my business. As an elder brother, I can't turn a blind eye."

"Moreover, Rong Rong personally picked the things, so that you can like them."

Jiang Rong: "???"

When did my brother's speaking level become so high? !

Because of being too confused, when Lin Shiyin and Li Shishi let go of their mouths and received the presents, Jiang Rong couldn't help but leaned over and asked Jiang Yi.

Facts have proved that her suspicion is completely right, because Jiang Yi didn't think of it himself.

"Before getting into the car, Suiyun taught me." He replied.

Jiang Rong: Sure enough.

But now, she doesn't force Jiang Yi and Yuan Suiyun's brothers to settle accounts clearly.

She patted Jiang Yi on the shoulder and said, "Suiyun has really thought about it well, and he treats you like a brother."

"Of course." Jiang Yi was very proud, "By the way, after eating in a while, let's take two altars of Wenxian wine from Lingxianlou back, and wait for New Year's Eve to get drunk again."

"Is the fairy wine too strong?" Jiang Rong thought of Yuan Suiyun's appearance last night, so he rejected the proposal, "You and Suiyun both drink about the same, let's change."

"Huh?" Jiang Yi was surprised, "Where is Suiyun's alcohol capacity average? His alcohol capacity is quite good."
