Famous in the Jianghu [Comprehensive Martial Arts]

"Brother." Ye Cenqiu walked to the door, raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"Come in." Ye Gucheng's voice came from inside the door.

"It's almost the end of the day (1-3 o'clock in the afternoon), brother, has lunch?" Ye Cenqiu opened the door and went in, seeing Ye Gucheng who was still sitting there with his head bowed while doing business.

"Zhao Yu brought lunch over." Ye Gucheng replied as he put down the half-written letter in his hand.

"How do you feel about the clothes?" Ye Gucheng asked, looking up at Ye Cenqiu.

"It fits well." Ye Cenqiu sat down beside Ye Gucheng.

"Are those pirates so rampant this year?" Ye Cenqiu asked as his eyes fell on the unfinished letter.

During the period when Father Ye just passed away, because Ye Gucheng was young and came to power, without Father Ye’s awe, in that year, a large group of pirates united together and drove boats to harass the fishermen around Feixian Island to go out to sea.

Later, relying on Ye Gucheng's youth, they wanted to directly capture Feixian Island, which they had been coveting for a long time.

In that battle, Ye Gucheng almost died, but because of that battle, Ye Gucheng became famous.

At that time, Ye Gucheng was only 16 years old, and he was just four years old.

Because of that battle, the remaining pirates realized that although the new city lord was still young, he was not something they could handle at will.

Later, as Ye Gucheng got older and his martial arts became more sophisticated, those pirates became less daring.

But this year...

Looking at the letter with fixed eyes, Ye Cenqiu's eyes sank slightly.

The new Emperor Dazhao has just ascended the throne, and he is young and inexperienced, causing turmoil in the court and the opposition.

The Liao Kingdom next door took advantage of this opportunity to garrison heavy troops, and in disregard of the treaty concluded between the two countries during the reign of the first emperor, they burned, killed and looted the border of Jokhang.

As a result of the war, the lives of the people in Dazhao became more miserable. A large number of seaside fishermen who couldn't get enough to eat simply went to sea to become pirates.

"I've sent someone to deal with it." Ye Gucheng said lightly as he looked at the letter with a frown.

He had always been unwilling to let Ye Cenqiu get in touch with these troublesome things, so he would not explain it to him.

"En." Ye Cenqiu nodded slightly, and did not ask any further questions in cooperation.

"I heard that brother has accepted a disciple?"

"Did you see him?" Ye Gucheng asked with a slight frown, looking sideways at Ye Cenqiu.

"Well, I just saw him go out from my elder brother." Ye Cenqiu said, "I heard from Qingyi that he seems to be the son of Prince Pingnan?"

"Yeah." Ye Gucheng nodded, looked into Ye Cenqiu's eyes seriously and said, "Don't have too much contact with him."

"Yeah." As Prince Pingnan was mentioned, Ye Cenqiu wanted to test Ye Gucheng's thoughts on that position.

"The new emperor has ascended the throne, and the political situation in the court is unstable. There may be many people who are thinking of pulling the new emperor from that position. What do you think about these things, brother?" Fingers tapped unconsciously on the thigh , Ye Cenqiu said slowly.

With the identity of the former royal family, if the Ye family had kept their own law and order, they might still be able to live in peace.

But once you intervene in the affairs of that position, no matter whether you fail or succeed, you will die.

Just like the pair of Prince Pingnan and his son who wanted to cross the river and demolish the bridge.

Thinking of what Prince Pingnan's son said just now, Ye Cenqiu's slow tapping fingers paused slightly.

He did not believe that Ye Gucheng would fail to consider those consequences.

However, if Ye Gucheng wanted that position and just wanted to use Pingnan Wang and his son as a platform, then he would definitely do his best to ensure that Ye Gucheng could sit in that position safely.

Instead of choosing Prince Pingnan and his son, it is better to choose to cooperate with Gong Jiu...

Unconsciously, Ye Cenqiu had already started to think about how to push Ye Gucheng to that position.

"What happened in the court has nothing to do with us." Ye Gucheng said coldly.

"Then why did the elder brother accept Prince Pingnan as his disciple?" Ye Cenqiu looked into Ye Gucheng's eyes and said slowly, "As far as I know, the prince of Pingnan doesn't just learn swords, he just learns swordsmanship." The simplest martial art is only measured to the level of a three-legged cat."

"Baiyun City owes Pingnan Palace a favor." Ye Gucheng lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment before being pressed by Ye Cenqiu, and said slowly.

"Favour? Is it because our Ye family is a former royal family?" Ye Cenqiu had never shown his sharpness in front of Ye Gucheng before, he said in a slightly cold voice.

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere between the two condensed instantly.

Looking out of the window, I don't know when a large piece of dark cloud has descended outside, and the branches blown by the sea breeze are rustling.

Suddenly, pea-sized raindrops fell from the sky frantically, and the rain became heavier and heavier, as if the whole world was covered with a layer of white gauze.

The raindrops fell to the ground, splashing white mist.

Ye Gucheng suddenly raised his head and stared at Ye Cenqiu, his dark eyes were like cold stars.

"Who told you?" Ye Gucheng asked.

"Before I came in, I heard what Prince Pingnan and his attendants said outside." Ye Cenqiu pursed his lips and said, "They also said that as long as they sit in that position, they will kill brother."

Seeing Ye Cenqiu's appearance, Ye Gucheng suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness, and his heart softened.

"Have you been discovered by them?" Ye Gucheng asked.

"No, they seemed to be out of breath just now, and they didn't notice me." Ye Cenqiu lowered his eyes and said slowly, with the sound of raindrops falling on the houses and trees in his ears.

"When our Ye family evacuated to Feixian Island, it was the help of King Pingnan at that time. Now at this time, this matter is a favor and a threat." Ye Gucheng turned his head to look at the heavy rain outside the window, After a long silence, he finally opened his mouth to explain.

"So apart from Pingnan Wang's family, no one else knows that the Ye family is the former royal family?" Ye Cenqiu raised his eyes and asked.

"No." Ye Gucheng replied decisively, "The ancestors did not leave any traces at that time, and even King Pingnan found out about it by accident."

That would be so much easier...

With a slightly cold gaze, Ye Cenqiu gradually tightened his five fingers.

"Then brother, did you ever think about returning to the country?" Ye Cenqiu said.

"If there are no people in this city and you behind me, maybe I will try." This time the silence was longer, just when Ye Cenqiu thought that Ye Gucheng would not answer, he finally heard Ye Gucheng's answer .

"Then what if I say, I can help my brother sit in that position?" Ye Cenqiu said, looking firmly into Ye Gucheng's eyes.

"Our young master is really good-looking." After putting on the jade pendant on Ye Cenqiu's waist, Qingyi straightened up and looked at Ye Cenqiu, and said with a smile.

"My lord looks good." Ling Lu, who was arranging Ye Cenqiu's clothes, looked up at Qing Yi, and said calmly.

"It's usually pretty, but it's even more beautiful today." Qingyi smiled sweetly, "I heard that Miss Cheng who said she was going to marry the son when she was young seems to have come to attend today's crowning ceremony."

"If she sees today's young master, wouldn't she want to make a secret promise, and then not marry unless it is our young master?" Qingyi joked with a smile.

"Okay, don't mess around anymore, the time should be up soon, right?" Ye Cenqiu looked at the figure in the mirror and asked.

"It's almost there." Ling Lu replied, looking at the sky outside.

"Young Master, take a look, but there is still something wrong." Qingyi finally straightened Ye Cenqiu's hair, then stood behind Ye Cenqiu, looking at the figure in the mirror.

I don't know who decided the color of this dress in the first place, but actually chose a bright red that Ye Cenqiu almost never wore.

The red clothes embroidered by Chonggong were wrapped layer by layer on Ye Cenqiu's body, and the slightly exposed neckline made his neck more white and slender.

On the hem and cuffs of the clothes, the embroiderer embroidered dark lines with black silk thread. When standing in the sun, you can even see the streamer flashing on the dark lines.

A very good-looking black jade pendant was hung on his waist, and the tassels of the same color began to shake slightly when Ye Cenqiu walked.

She was clearly dressed in red, but Ye Cenqiu gave off a cold and noble feeling.

"Put on some rouge." Looking at Ye Cenqiu, Qingyi's eyes suddenly lit up, and said.

Seeing that Ye Cenqiu didn't object, she lightly dabbed a little rouge with her fingers, and carefully applied it on Ye Cenqiu's light-colored lips.

"Okay!" Qingyi took a few steps back, carefully studying Ye Cenqiu's appearance.

After applying that bit of rouge, it not only brought a tinge of blood to Ye Cenqiu's face, but also suppressed Ye Cenqiu's too cold aura a bit, making the whole person look a little softer.

"The time is almost up, let's go." Ling Lu said. "Let's go." Ye Cenqiu said softly, glancing at the sky outside.

The time of the coronation ceremony is an auspicious time that has been specially divined, so even though it rained a few days ago, the sun is shining brightly today.

All the way to the ancestral temple, the banquet has been set up, and many guests have already taken their seats.

Walking slowly from the path between the banquet, Ye Cenqiu looked up and saw Ye Gucheng who was already standing in the front and waiting for him.

The crowning ceremony should have been held by the father or the male elders of the clan for those who performed the crowning ceremony, but now the only person in the Ye family who can hold the crowning ceremony for Ye Cenqiu is Ye Gucheng.

Today's Ye Gucheng also changed into a new suit, no longer the usual white suit, but a black dress.

"Brother." Ye Cenqiu stood still in front of Ye Gucheng, and bowed his hands.

"Yeah." Ye Gucheng nodded slightly.

Ye Cenqiu withdrew his right foot slightly, first knelt down on one knee, and then lowered his left foot.

Ye Gucheng lowered his eyes, looking at Ye Cenqiu in front of him, his eyes were complicated for a while.

From today onwards, his only family member will also become an adult.

"Master..." Cheng Wanling's eyes lit up the moment she saw Ye Cenqiu coming in.

She watched Ye Cenqiu walk in front of her, and couldn't help tugging on the clothes of the master beside her.

"Wanling, as a teacher, I have already said that he is not suitable for you." Ji Yuanqi looked down at his apprentice with a helpless expression.

In the early years, he was invited to come to Feixian Island to see a doctor for the second son of Baiyun City, but although he was called a miracle doctor, he was not a god after all, and he had no way to deal with Ye Cenqiu's illness.

Unexpectedly, the apprentice who followed him to Baiyun City fell in love at first sight after seeing the second young master.

It would be fine if he could cure Ye Cenqiu's disease, but the problem is that he can't.

In this way, how could he be willing to let his only apprentice really marry the second son of Baiyun City.

So after staying in Baiyun City for a month, he bid farewell.
