[Comprehensive] The correct strategy of Xueba

Chapter 90 The Tranquility Before the Storm

Three days later, Jiang Nanchun.

Jiangnanchun is the name of the restaurant, which faces the street and stretches from the Chaobai River to the center of the river.There is a small island in the middle of the river, with faint smoke trees and luxuriant grass.And if you want to see the beautiful scenery of Xianyundu River, the best place is Wangchun Terrace on the third floor of Jiangnanchun River.

Wangchun Terrace is an octagonal pavilion with double eaves.On the side facing the river, there are two copper couplets engraved with gold characters on two bright red lacquered wooden pillars, and there is a famous sentence written by Du Mu of the Tang Dynasty: "Thousands of miles of warblers cry and green reflects red, water villages, mountains, Guojiu flag wind".The weather at the end of April is also good, and it is a good time to climb high and look far.Not to mention that the stone table in the pavilion is full of good wine and good food, which is really nothing to enjoy.

It's a pity that at least two of the three people in the pavilion didn't care about it.Only Wei Yang squinted his eyes while holding the wine glass, sipping the excellent Zhuyeqing that Huamanlou specially served him.It's so happy to invite local rich friends to dinner, isn't it!

That's right, Jiangnanchun is one of the properties of Jiangnan Huajia in the capital.In fact, Hua Manlou was sitting next to him.Hearing Wei Yang's subtle voice, he couldn't help but sigh: "Why are you not in a hurry?"

"What's the rush?" Wei Yang asked back.He put down his wine glass and took another piece of Huangqian Cake with pine nuts, and the caramel flavor of pine nuts diffused faintly.The chef of Hua's restaurant is from Suzhou, with authentic and exquisite craftsmanship.

"Sometimes I really don't understand you." Hua Manlou sighed again. "It's like Lu Xiaofeng, who is always out of shape on weekdays. I thought you..." He paused.

"Do you think I am having fun while suffering?" Wei Yang asked.He had already swallowed the pastry, and reached for the stewed three shredded shiitake mushrooms. "If someone invites you to eat, of course you have to let go of your belly to eat." He glanced at Sherlock beside the booth, "If you don't move your chopsticks, I'll eat them all!" Practicing is very laborious, and you get hungry very quickly!

Huamanlou was even more helpless. "If I invite you to dinner, won't it make you hungry?" He waved his hand, and the shopkeeper who was waiting beside him immediately understood, and whispered to the kitchen to make some more dishes.

"I knew Huamanlou that you would not be stingy." Wei Yang hurriedly expressed his thanks.People always feel a little happier when facing delicious food, and he is no exception.

But there are always exceptions, like Sherlock.Hearing Wei Yang's words, he finally couldn't hold back and opened his mouth: "This month is about to pass, there is one and a half months left."

"Of course I know." Wei Yang replied, but his eyes were fixed on the bowl.The soup is milky white, neither thick nor light, and the heat is just right...

"Do you know what's going on outside?" Sherlock asked again.

"You mean Ye Gucheng?" Wei Yang finished his soup and picked up his chopsticks. "Didn't he return to Feixian Island? At least he must have left the capital, and no one knows where he is."

Sherlock almost hated iron for steel.The decisive battle is imminent, of course the normal thinking is to practice hard, and it is best to come up with some secret tricks, after all, no one wants to lose.But Wei Yang was fine, he told Ye Gucheng directly, and he was not in a hurry at all. The only plan was to wait half a month before leaving for Wuyang City.I spent a month on the road, isn't it too lazy?

But no matter how anxious Sherlock was, he couldn't change this matter, so he became even more angry. "Not only." He said firmly.

"Then you mean gambling?" Wei Yang stretched out his chopsticks to the oily and fragrant Dongpo pork. "It's a pity that I'm not famous enough. Everyone thinks that Ye Gucheng is sure to win, and I can't even bet on it." He regretted it very much.

"You want to bet?" Sherlock glared at him.

Wei Yang nodded of course. "My odds are so high, shouldn't I buy a big one and try my luck? It's just that no one else plays, and I can't play alone."

Sherlock choked on the attitude.According to his judgment, no one in this world can beat Ye Gucheng with [-]% certainty, and of course Wei Yang is the same.And in a duel with Ye Gucheng, one will definitely die.Of course he wants Wei Yang to win, for which he can help.

But Wei Yang refused to let him intervene in this matter—to be honest, he couldn’t intervene—so he was very angry.This should never have happened!If I knew he should have stopped Wei Yang before he agreed!

But even he would never have imagined that Wei Yang, who has always been cautious, would be willing to take such a big risk.He couldn't stop it, so things became like this, and even he couldn't do anything.

Sherlock squinted his eyes suddenly, and disappeared from the pavilion the next moment.

"What are you doing?" Hua Manlou heard the whole process and knew that Sherlock had left. "I can see that Wuming wants to help you."

"But this is about me and Ye Gucheng, no one can get involved." Wei Yang put down his chopsticks and looked in the direction where Sherlock disappeared. "It's none of his business."

"You..." Hua Manlou suddenly heard something else.He now understands that Wei Yang and Sherlock are actually thinking about each other.To be honest, based on the time Wei Yang and Sherlock spent together, the relationship progressed a bit fast.But of course it cannot be ruled out that the two hit it off. "So you really want to compare with Ye Gucheng?"

"The news has been spread, how can there be any reason for it to be fake?" Wei Yang replied. "And you should know that what Ye Gucheng said in his life has never changed."

Hua Manlou sighed.Of course he knew this, and he also knew that Wei Yang was the same. "Although it's too late to ask now, I still want to know how things turned out like this? The big trouble you mentioned before, shouldn't be a sword fight with Ye Gucheng?"

The troubles that may affect the Hua family, of course, cannot be a simple duel of swordsmen, and the two of them are well aware of this. "I can only assure you that after I compete with Ye Gucheng, no matter whether I win or lose, half of this trouble is solved." Wei Yang said.

Hua Manlou frowned. "Half?" Doesn't this mean that there is another half that needs to be resolved?It can't be a duel, can it? "Do you think you caused this trouble, so you don't want other people to intervene and solve it yourself?"

"That's right." Wei Yang nodded.He can't boast that he can handle Ye Gucheng and Gong Jiu's affairs, but he can at least guarantee that he will do his best.As for Ye Gucheng, he has figured out a little way now; let's put Gong Jiu aside for now, you must know that he and the abnormal brain circuits are never in the same dimension, and it is purely accidental to get a good impression. "And I promise I won't die," he added.

Hua Manlou finally nodded. "Do you want to tell Lu Xiaofeng about this?"

"It's still very early until June [-]th. Even if Lu Xiaofeng is in the northwest, he will definitely have time to watch the excitement." Wei Yang said.In fact, he felt that compared to Lu Xiaofeng, Ximen Chuuxue was the problem.

Hua Manlou obviously thought of the same direction. "Ximen should know by now." He said, looking in Wei Yang's direction, "You are friends, do you think he will be unhappy?"

This time it was Wei Yang's turn to sigh. "From the point of view of my not agreeing to his competition, I probably won't be angry, but I'm definitely not happy either." He changed the subject, "But from another perspective, he might be very happy."

Hua Manlou understood what Wei Yang meant.They all learn swordsmanship, and they all pursue the highest essence of swordsmanship. Of course, they cannot wait for the duel between the two swordsmen. "Looks like Simon's going to be out again soon. He says he's out of doors up to four times a year, and that's used up two."

"So it's better to be like me and not go back after coming down." Wei Yang joked.

"Forget it then," Hua Manlou shook his head, "I don't like watching duels." After saying this, he seemed to feel that his tone was too harsh, and added: "But I think you are in good condition now. After half a month, I will fight with you How about going to Wuyang City together?"

"Okay." Wei Yang immediately agreed.It was always comfortable to stay with Huamanlou, and he had no reason to refuse.

"What about Wuming? Will he come?"

Wei Yang couldn't hold back and looked in the direction where Sherlock disappeared. "I think so." He just hoped that Sherlock wouldn't create a bunch of surprises for him when he came!

But actually it was calm.Although Wei Yang reserved a month for going to Wuyang City, in fact, it only takes half a month with the most comfortable way of traveling.Sherlock appeared occasionally, and seemed to have accepted the reality, although Wei Yang was dubious.Gong Jiu disappeared, and so did Ye Gucheng, they had no news at all.

So at the beginning of June, Wei Yang and the other three arrived in Wuyang City smoothly.

Wuyang City is located in the southeast and is very rich.The most eye-catching building in the city is the Pingnan Palace, which is tall and majestic.Everyone knows that the palace has high walls and strict institutions, and there are [-] well-trained armored guards, who will kill anyone who trespasses.

But for the matter of June [-]th, King Pingnan agreed.Not only agreed, but he also allowed others to enter the palace to watch that night.Of course, who can enter and who cannot, will be checked and approved by the general manager of the palace.

With the strength of the Jiangnan Hua family, Huamanlou was of course allowed.Not only that, but Nanwang Shizi immediately hosted a banquet when he heard that Huamanlou had arrived in Wuyang City, which shows that he attaches great importance to it.

Considering that it was Ye Gucheng who persuaded King Pingnan to agree to the sword competition, Wei Yang believed that King Pingnan still didn't know the truth about that day in Yupenglai.But King Pingnan knew that he would shrink his bones, so he would definitely realize that there were loopholes in his plan.I don't know what Ye Gucheng said to King Ping Nan...

Wei Yang was thinking about these issues while standing behind Hua Manlou acting as a servant.When memorizing the terrain of the palace, he also remembered the appearance of Prince Nan's son in his heart.Of course, he deliberately sneaked in to record the terrain not because he was worried that Ye Gucheng would come to Yin, but because he really couldn't and didn't dare to trust King Pingnan.King Pingnan had an objection in his heart, and would do anything to win the throne.

It was the third day of June, and everything still seemed normal.

But within two days, news came that on the same day a bearded man in a purple-red padded jacket robbed 80 taels of dart silver escorted by the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau, and embroidered dozens of blind men.

On June [-]th, the [-] Dendrobium pearls of the palace were stolen, and Jiang Chongwei, the general manager of the palace, was stabbed and blinded.At this time, the list of people allowed to enter the palace has not yet been fully released, and the people in the Jianghu in Wuyang City suddenly turned upside down.

Seeing that the decisive battle is imminent, who is messing up the water?
