Let's briefly mention Li Jiangnan.

Li Jiangnan was the youngest guard in the regular army of Zhongwuwei. is different from the sons and nephews of loyal military guards like Zhou Meiyu, he is a personal soldier who was personally supervised and trained by the first emperor and left to Emperor Ye Ziyou of Zhou Ai. He lived in the palace from an early age and was trained rigorously and thoroughly. Although he is not the strongest person in martial arts, he can be called the smartest person with the brain. Not only proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also the art of war.

He is three years younger than Ye Ziyou, but because of his erudition and knowledge, he is very important to Ye Ziyou. If it weren't for Li Jiangnan's identity as a loyal guard, Ye Ziyou would have wanted him to be an accompaniment and give him an official in the future.

Li Jiangnan eventually became an official, but not an official of the Zhou Dynasty, but an official of the Yi Dynasty. He blended into the court of the Yi Dynasty under Ye Ziyou's arrangement and became Ye Ziyou's internal response.

That year, when Emperor Taizu of the Yi Dynasty was assassinated, the newly enthroned Emperor Song Xu frantically hunted down the loyal guards. Li Jiangnan secretly revealed to Ye Ziyou the traces of several ministers who had betrayed the Zhou Dynasty, and also participated in some assassination operations, revealing a little clues. He was in a state of precariousness, and he was in constant fear for it.

Until Wei Kexun replaced the real Zhou Meiyu and became the righteous daughter of Xu Shaocong, the king of Jiangxia.

In order to save his life, and in order to work closely with Zhou Meiyu and take care of each other, Li Jiangnan was ruthless and performed a "cowardly" drama to people, openly molesting the daughter of the former prime minister.

This kind of life-threatening behavior was really hated by the former prime minister. He was assigned, on charges of "dereliction of duty" and "delaying military information", and went to northern Xinjiang with the wound of fifty court staffs.

In this way, he successfully met with Zhou Meiyu.

Later, Zhou Meiyu became a subordinate of Xu Shaocong, the king of Jiangxia, and her prestige was shocked, and she was rewarded by Song Xu and allowed to return to Beijing to be entitled. Zhou Meiyu took this opportunity to get in touch with Song Yi'an, who was imprisoned in the palace.

Song Yi'an entrusted Ji Shu to tell Zhou Meiyu that she would attract the attention of the world by committing suicide at the Qujiang banquet, and asked Zhou Meiyu to cooperate.

The overall situation is important, and Zhou Meiyu immediately expressed his approval of the implementation of the plan, but Li Jiangnan expressed opposition.

Li Jiangnan regards Song Yi'an as his loyal master and as a junior. Although he didn't watch Song Yi'an grow up, he witnessed Song Yi'an's birth, watched her take the first step in life, and heard her pronounce the first syllable in a vague and immature voice.

He is Song Yi'an's half-enlightenment teacher, and when Ye Ziyou had no time to take care of her, it was Li Jiangnan who held her little hand and taught her to read and write. Li Jiangnan really felt sorry for that little doll.

Li Jiangnan disagreed with Song Yi'an's overly dangerous plan. Too adventurous and too humble.

But Song Yi'an did not listen to his advice, and jumped on the high viewing platform at the Qujiang banquet.

Li Jiangnan's heart was pinched, he was afraid that Zhou Meiyu would miss it, and he was afraid that Song Yi'an would die because of it. He could barely control his emotions and save people personally.

He held back, and Zhou Meiyu lived up to expectations and saved the person.

Helped Song Yi'an up, hid the little girl in his arms, and with the light of the palace lamp, Li Jiangnan thought, that child has grown up.

Song Yi'an, who grew up, is really as beautiful as her mother, as forgiving as her uncle, and as ruthless as her father.

He wanted to see her again, how much he wanted to warn the palace people who were going to take her away not to hurt her, how much he wanted to punch Song Xu and curse him in the worst language he could think of. Unfortunately, he couldn't. That child has endured so many trials alone, and all he can do is support him silently.

From now on, he will protect her and dedicate his loyalty to her.

As soon as Zhou Meiyu had prepared everything, he heard the soldiers in charge of the guards come in and report that the King of Qi and the King of Shu had arrived.

The encounter between Song Yuande, the king of Qi, and Song Yuanjie, the king of Shu, at the gate of Longqing Restaurant was purely accidental. Song Yuande has always looked down on this younger brother who has no sense of existence and is from a low background, he feels that Song Yuanjie is not much stronger than Song Yi'an's bloodline, such a person is not his brother, and their existence is just to tell the world that his father's fertility is acceptable.

Song Yuanjie was accustomed to Song Yuande's white eyes, so he didn't care about it, but he still maintained his usual respectful attitude and asked Song Yuande to go first.

Zhou Meiyu greeted him and invited Song Yuande and Song Yuanjie to sit at the table.

Song Yuande limped, shook the priceless white jade bone glass fan in his hand, and said, "Hasn't the imperial brother arrived yet?"

Zhou Meiyu stood up and replied, "Please wait a while, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should be there soon." ”

Who knew that Song Yuande unreservedly showed his dissatisfaction, sneered, and said, "The prince is still as majestic as ever!"

None of the people present dared to take his words.

Zhou Meiyu didn't hear this rebellious sentence, and said: "I heard that His Royal Highness the King of Qi loves wine, and the minister specially prepared several good wines, please taste them." His Royal Highness the King of Qi is invited inside, His Royal Highness the King of Shu, please be inside. ”

The King of Qi limped in first, and the King of Shu returned the salute and followed behind.

"Newspaper—" The guard outside the door came in with a long voice.

Jiangxia Wangfu is a military and military mansion, and there are traces of the army in his style of acting, even if he invites guests to eat outside, he will not change. The two princes were a little uncomfortable, and they both turned their heads to look. Zhou Meiyu was used to being natural, she put her hands behind her back, raised her head with her chest straight, and listened to the guard's report.

Song Yuande, the king of Qi, thought secretly: "In this way, fortunately, Zhou Meiyu didn't choose me at the beginning. This kind of style is like a woman, it is even more barbaric than a man! Miss Xue is good, gentle and elegant, knowledgeable, first a princess, and then a queen, all of them are qualified. ”

The guard hugged his fist and said, "General Qiyu, military advisor Li Jiangnan sent someone to report that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Seventh Prince met at the Zhefeng Teahouse on the street. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that the Seventh Prince was in his way, so he sent his subordinates to reason with the Seven Princes. The Seventh Prince was wounded. Xue Gongzi and Miss Xue, who took Helian Gongzi to the banquet, happened to meet and were also there. The military advisor asked the general, would you like to go over and have a look?"

Nature is to be seen.

Song Yuanji was too arrogant. He obviously knew that Song Yi'an and Zhou Meiyu were engaged, and he wanted to humiliate Song Yi'an in front of the public, without taking into account his demeanor and royal stature as a prince, nor did he take into account the face of Jiangxia Palace, not to mention that there were two princes and several noble sons present.

Zhou Meiyu hurriedly confessed to the King of Qi and the King of Shu, saying: "The minister wants to be absent for a while, please forgive the two princes." ”

Song Yuande put away the fan with a "snap" and said: "At the beginning, the prince sent someone to discount that guy's leg, and this king happened to have no chance to see him in person in the imperial study, but this time, he caught up." Let's go and have a look!"

Looking at that full interest, people who don't know still think that what he is watching is not a fight, but a good show!
