Although Ruan Dai is a master, she has never been able to defeat the true owner of Wuyoufang, and she is destined to try another defeat today.

The building was once again full of fragrance, Ruan Dai took off the bamboo flute and leaned back on the bed.Resting his forehead with one hand, gently stroking the body of the flute with the other, closing his eyes, he seemed sad and complained: "I can't bear the wind and the moon, I hate it, and it hurts the spring and thin like the past years..."

Stepping out of the Begonia Garden, Xi Xiu suddenly felt refreshed, but at this moment her eyes suddenly darkened, and she was stopped by Ye Zhenge: "Are you awake?"

Reminiscing about the details just now, Xi Xiu wondered: "Why do I feel like when I am close to you when she looks at me?"

"The scent on her body disturbs people's mind, it doesn't matter if you stay away."

After thinking for a while, Xi Xiu said disdainfully: "There are so many weird people with poison on their swords and incense on their bodies! But they don't want to be fooled by me again!"

Ye Zhenge sighed with a smile: "I'm going to call you a hero soon."

"Are heroes better than young heroes?"

Couldn't help scratching the tip of his nose lightly, Ye Zhenge said: "Whether you are a hero or a young hero, you are all equally powerful in my eyes."

The way here is smooth, there are neither barriers nor guards, only candles illuminate the winding path, leading the two of them through the bamboo forest to a quiet courtyard.

In a room in the courtyard, the doors and windows are wide open, as if it is waiting for visitors.

Ye Zhenge stepped in majesticly, and sent his gaze—on Huanghuali's arhat couch, a person wrapped in a black shirt and a black scarf tied up in a bun was sitting cross-legged on the east side and playing music, turning a deaf ear to the outside world.

Not daring to disturb, Ye Zhenge and Xi Xiu sat quietly in the hall.

Xi Xiu had to worry about what she had seen and heard after running around for days, so she dozed off after a while.

Hearing a little snoring, Ye Zhenge smiled, then got up and walked to the Arhat couch, and sat down a few steps to the west side, and continued to watch the man play music.

After a cup of tea, the man dropped his hand and stopped.

Ye Zhenge raised his eyes and thought that although this person was very weak since he was young, his complexion is particularly pale now, so he couldn't help but ask with concern: "Ying Ling, are you alright?"

Ying Ling's eyelids were heavy, she picked up a white piece from the chessboard and rubbed it between her fingers, and said leisurely, "Thanks to you."

Before this trip, Ye Zhenge knew that he would not be able to relax, but based on his understanding of Ling, although this person has an odd temperament, he is by no means disregarding the overall situation, and his attitude at the moment is really abnormal... Just thinking about it, his eyes glanced at the other party's neck inadvertently, but Seeing red marks on the pale skin, and taking a closer look, there are actually several teeth marks hidden near the collar...

With a twitch on his forehead, Ye Zhenge took a deep breath, remained silent for a while, and said, "To make a long story short, I'm here to pick up what Shen Chuxing left here with you."

"The word 'put' is too light."

"Oh?"

"He still didn't give up after losing all his belongings, and borrowed 3000 taels of silver with that thing as collateral." Throwing the chess piece into the chess box, Ying Ling sneered, "It took two or three nights to lose everything."

There is no profiteering, not to mention the owner of the number one gambling house in Jinyuan, the value of that thing is more than a mere 3000 taels?And how much trouble it will bring, does Ying Ling not know?Ye Zhenge knew that this person was deliberately avoiding the most important and taking the light of the light, just to make things difficult for him.

Without saying anything, Ye Zhenge took up the topic and said: "You know that he will lose every bet, but you are willing to spend money for him to have fun. This kind of brotherhood is deeply moving."

"Shen Chu was desperate and begged to come to the door. I took him in only because of my adoptive father's face. Why is there so much brotherhood? He owes me not less than a copper coin!" Raising his eyes, Ying Ling looked at the other party in a daze.

The moment their eyes met, Ye Zhenge was in a trance... Recalling that when he first arrived at Ye's house, Ying Ling had a strange poison in his body and couldn't see.Today's achievements are all due to his perceptive ears, clever heart, and innate intuition for fortune.

With a wry smile, Ye Zhenge picked up the side lamp and picked up the candle wick: "In this case, for the sake of my father, I still hope to show my respect."

"Xiu Ti's adoptive father!" Looking towards Xi Xiu, Ying Ling lowered his voice and said, "If he knows that Wu Youfang is willing to take the risk to keep Shen Chuxing, you will be the first one to question him."

Ye Zhenge apologized, "It's because I didn't think carefully."

"You and I have our own duties, and the trouble you caused shouldn't have labored for me," Ying Ling narrowed his eyes and said indifferently, "Now you have to get that thing back, 3000 taels of silver, the gambling table is higher Come down."

Knowing that the 3000 taels was just an excuse to prevaricate, even if she offered 3 taels with both hands, Ying Ling would not let it go.Ye Zhenge closed the fan and put it on the low table, saying: "This is the fan bone made of kylin jade, the fan surface made of poinciana wood, and the word 'Zhen Ge' written by my father in cloud ink. Fire cannot burn, and water cannot melt. "

"Wuyoufang is not in favor of bartering things." Ying Ling naturally knew how important this fan was to him, and was secretly surprised.

Ye Zhenge pointed at the chessboard and said, "I want to use it as a bet to win back the secret letter, and the unfinished game should be over."

Ying Ling left Ye's family to take over Wuyoufang when he was weak. Before leaving, he met Ye Zhenge to play chess. He poked Baizi with his finger... Heizi hadn't abstained yet, but Baizi took two steps in a row and was defeated without a fight!Ying Ling raised her head in a daze, looking at the dimple on her cheek, she almost vomited blood!

If Shen Chuxing hadn't intervened, Ye Zhenge would have suffered a disastrous defeat back then, but now he has lost without any suspense.

"If I knew it earlier, I should have agreed with Shen Chuxing and asked him to pay with his life."

Ying Ling sneered and said, "Is this what he is good for?"

"He's more like a young master by my side. What's the point of keeping him if he doesn't accomplish anything well enough?" Slowly getting up, Ye Zhenge looked down at Ying Ling, and said calmly, "I will bear all my mistakes." , but Shen Chuxing's mortgage of a secret letter is a serious crime, and you are an accomplice if you take him in regardless of Wu Youfang's position. Father has his own conclusions about right and wrong."

The emperor is far away from Shan Gao, and Ying Ling is so powerful in Jinyuan, how can he be threatened by him?

"You just rely on your adoptive father—"

"So what," Ye Zhenge said without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, "You are alone in the palm of your hand and turning your hands into clouds and rain, how carefree and happy, who gave you such a chance?"

"What does the foster father's kindness have to do with you?"

"You also know that it is the kindness of your father, but if you are against me now, you are against him. If there is a mistake in this matter, can you bear the consequences?"

Ying Ling looked at him expressionlessly, and a trace of hatred flashed across his eyes: "Shen Chuxing has the guts to lead Chanyilou to Wuyoufang, and has the guts to mortgage the secret letter. When did he think about the consequences? He has been by your side for more than ten years. Years, every time you get into trouble, you will deal with the aftermath, and the two of you are brothers and sisters, so this time you will also bear the burden for him."

Hearing his insinuations, Ye Zhenge frowned, but his tone was still calm: "Just to discuss the matter, I didn't come here to chat with you, no matter who gets that letter, it will be troublesome."

Holding her forehead, Ying Ling closed her eyes and said, "So what if I don't pay."

Ye Zhenge Wen persuaded: "I am thinking of you, do you think you can take care of yourself?"

"What a combination of soft and hard, even if Chi Qianli has the pupil of soul-stirring, he will never be able to learn your tricks," coughed twice, Ying Ling touched the corner of his lips with a handkerchief, he was as weak as a candle in the wind, but his momentum Unabated, he snorted coldly, "But you are standing on my territory, so you can do whatever you want."

Seeing that he refused to give an inch, Ye Zhenge didn't want to waste any more words, turned around and said: "I will leave Jinyuan before tomorrow, and I will take my leave." After speaking, he went to the hall to wake up Xi Xiu.

Back at the inn, the two were led into the bedroom by the man. Without waiting for orders, the man quickly brought hot water and filled the bathtub.Ye Zhenge looked around the house and found two sets of new clothes inside and out, one of which was obviously bought according to his preferences, and those who know themselves so well and are deliberately pleasing will not think otherwise.

After saying hello to Xi Xiu, Ye Zhenge went to the next room.

The door was unlocked, and he didn't light the lamp after stepping in. He sat by the table and said to the tall shadow in the bed: "I should have gained a lot of benefits from watching Xiao Er's enthusiasm."

The laughter sounded immediately: "Borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, young master, you are very polite."

Ye Zhenge said in a deep voice, "Did I say I would be polite to you?"

Getting off the bed and lighting the candle, Shen Chuxing sat across from him and smiled, "I can guess from your tone of voice that he vented his anger a lot."

Seeing that the other party was neatly dressed and not sleepy, most of Ye Zhenge's anger disappeared: "It's good that you are safe and well."

Ye and Chen were intercepted during their trip to Taihe City, and the soldiers were divided into two groups in the chaos.When Shen Chuxing was in distress, he hid in Wuyoufang with a secret letter in his arms, lost everything as soon as he went to the table, and then mortgaged the thing to show it to someone who cared; Hot potato.

"There are a lot of things involved in the secret letter. It is unreasonable to get burned by Wuyoufang's position, so Chanyilou cannot guarantee that there will be no doubts. If the relationship between Wuyoufang and Ye's family is pursued, Ying Ling will not be able to escape the fault of dereliction of duty. We It really caused him trouble, and being made things difficult is not a grievance." Ye Zhenge sighed helplessly.

In addition to the Ye family of Qianning, the fourth family still has the Wang family of Ziliu, the Lu family of Yanping, and the Feng family of Tongliang.On the surface, the Ye family is engaged in the silk and jade business, but secretly there are many unseen transactions, and Wuyoufang is one of them.These transactions involve black and white forces in the rivers and lakes, but they still maintain neutrality because of the established rules.

Shen Chuxing touched the tip of his nose and murmured: "The rule of Wuyoufang is to see the truth on the gambling table. Since he has made things difficult enough, why doesn't he just 'lose' the secret letter to you?"

"Ask knowingly!" Recalling the love marks on Yingling's neck, Ye Zhenge couldn't help frowning, and habitually touched the fan and found nothing. Taking Joe over the secret letter, you must have offended him first because of your recklessness!"

"Is it reasonable to avenge private revenge?"

"How can there be a public announcement if there is no personal enmity? You have caused trouble and have not regretted it so far."

Shen Chuxing smiled nonchalantly: "I won't regret it if I do it, so is regretting useful?"

After waving his hands to end the topic, Ye Zhenge got up and said, "Go to Guixiang Garden tomorrow morning."

Shen Chuxing watched his back, and asked, "So sure?"

"I even lost the fan to him, and you are only close to hanging Wuyoufang. He should weigh it when he calms down!" Ye Zhenge said as he walked out.
