Chapter 38 Exploit and be Exploited
In addition to washing the dust for Lin Yuan, the main purpose of Yue Qingfeng's Qushui Banquet also has a deeper meaning. As a fellow believer in the party of 'no profit can not afford to be early', Xi Yutang understands very well that he is not only bored from recuperation, but also probably wants to see the strange faces in Jiangnan today.
There are not many people who participate in the Qushui Banquet, but they all have backgrounds, among them, Yu Yang Yutang, who is dressed in red, is undoubtedly the most eye-catching one.
Not to mention that he mentioned the establishment of the Jiangnan Gang, just to mention the recent drunken red mansion incident, which has already made everyone here dare not underestimate. There are not a few people who want to befriend him, and Xi Yutang has been paying attention to it since she first entered the scene, and naturally she has also seen her interaction with Jiang Qiantong in her eyes.
Although I can't see Jiang Qiantong's face under the hat, but just by my temperament and figure, no one will not believe that this is a beauty, and then think of Yang's deeds, and everyone was in a complicated mood for a while.
Yu Yang Hall Master is really a confidant all over the world......
Among them, the most unhappy are naturally Yue Qingfeng and Zheng Tai. The former didn't mention it, the latter chased Jiang Qiantong for more than a month, not only did he not get a good face from the other party, but he was beaten several times, combined with the drunken flower building, it is strange that the second son of the Zheng family can have a good face for Xi Yutang.
Xi Yutang could notice that Zheng Tai's expression was wrong, and Mo Jin could naturally do the same. The second young master of the Zheng family was happy with Miss Jiang, he had heard of it for a long time, and now that he saw it with his own eyes, he felt even more uncomfortable, but seeing that Jiang Qiantong was having fun with his sisters, it was not good to let them leave the stage early, so he had to move his seat again and again, trying to isolate Jiang Qiantong from Zheng Tai's sight with his own body.
By the time Xi Yutang reacted, Mo Jin was already quite far away from her.
Without a speaker, Xi Yutang looks a little alone. Many people wanted to go up and make friends, but before they could act, they saw Han Wenyan, the second disciple of the Ouyang League, holding the wine cup and speaking.
"This is Hall Master Yu, right? I've admired the name for a long time. He looked at Xi Yutang with great interest, and then looked at Jiang Qiantong and Moyin who were protected by Mo Jin, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and the smile on his face was even worse.
Xi Yutang looked at Han Wenyan with a smile, thinking that he led people to wash the inn in blood on the night he left Wushan, injuring her countless subordinates, and his fingers couldn't help but move. Before she could make a move, a slightly cool big hand suddenly and silently covered the back of her hand, using the short table in front of her as a barrier, and the other party's wide sleeve robe covered the overlapping hands of the two, and also blocked the silent wrestling between the sky and the earth under their sleeve robes.
Yue Qingfeng was still laughing and chatting with Lin Yuan, but he had a lot of strength in his hands to restrain Xi Yutang, full of warning.
Xi Yutang smiled without changing his face, raised his glass to Han Wenyan with the other hand, and the words he said were lightly understated with a deep gritted teeth, and no one present heard it, except for the young lord who quietly saw the sweat on his forehead.
"Your Excellency is Han Gongzi, right? Yu has also admired his name for a long time, and he really hates to see each other late! ”
Hearing the conversation between the two people, Jiang Qiantong, who was whispering to Mo Yin, didn't look up, but the hand in his sleeve was already clenched into a fist, and he glanced at the sword placed on his side without a trace, thinking that if there was a fight later, if he couldn't help but participate in the beating, how could he not be violent. Lu Li Snow Palace swordsmanship.
…… She instinctively believed in Xi Yutang, and didn't think about the question of whether Han Wenyan would win at all.
Mo Yin's heart was as thin as a hair, and she sensed that she was wrong, and gently pinched her wrist to try to comfort her, and at the same time leaned over and bit her ear, "Xiaowei, you are too nervous." ”
Jiang Qiantong quickly raised his eyes and looked at Mo Yin, and smiled reluctantly.
"You have an old relationship with Han Gongzi?" Mo Yin quickly realized what the problem was.
Jiang Qiantong didn't admit it or object, but said softly, "There's a senior brother here." ”
At the banquet, everyone was talking and laughing, and the whispers of the two daughters' families did not attract anyone's attention, but Mo Jin and Zheng Tai both moved their ears when Jiang Qiantong's words fell, and their eyes looking at Han Wenyan were more complicated.
And Xi Yutang and Han Wenyan chatted for a long time, and when they saw that the other party did not leave the drunken flower building, they looked impatient, but Yue Qingfeng held her hand and made it clear that she would not let her make trouble here, Xi Yutang was extremely unhappy in her heart, and she only heard a crisp sound on the ground, and she put down the wine glass in her hand.
"Han Gongzi doesn't leave Shaoguang in three sentences, but what do you think of her?" She raised her voice.
Hearing her suddenly open her mouth to question, everyone at the banquet focused their eyes, and the surrounding voices gradually became quieter, only the flowing water carried a pot of fine wine and gently slid past everyone's side.
Han Wenyan didn't expect Yu Yang to dare not give him face, his complexion also changed, he shook the folding fan in his hand, and said lightly, "Han has always heard the name of Miss Shaoguang, and this time he came to Jiangnan with the purpose of seeing the beauty, but it's a pity that Brother Yu started too early, it's really a pity, the gentleman doesn't take the favor of others, Brother Yu is willing to offend Tingyu Pavilion for the famous Oiran who shocked Jiangnan, and admire it." ”
Lin Yuan next to him frowned slightly when he heard this, feeling that something was wrong, but he didn't stop it. On the contrary, the old god of Yue Qingfeng was looking at Han Wenyan on the ground, and he didn't know what was surging in his starry eyes.
"Oh?" Xi Yutang raised his eyebrows, "It sounds like Han Gongzi doesn't agree with Yu's approach?" ”
"How so?" Han Wenyan met her gaze without fear, "It's just a pity that there is no Oiran in Jiangnan." Miss Shaoguang is really stunning, everyone has a heart for beauty, can it only be that the hall master has the heart of pity and cherishing jade, don't you know that we also have it? But...... This son thinks that the master of the hall does not really like Miss Shaoguang, but in the name of mercy, he excludes dissent. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked. No matter how sluggish Lin Yuan was, he sensed that something was wrong, and glared at his junior brother dissatisfied. The main purpose of their trip was to find out who did the Jiangnan Gang, what the internal situation was, and only with the charter could they have the next step, and they must not act arbitrarily before that.
You must know that Yu Yang was an outsider to Jiangnan more than a month ago, but now, he is already a local snake.
It is not unreasonable that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake.
Xi Yutang listened to his accusation without moving, secretly broke free from Yue Qingfeng's hand with a skillful hand, casually copied a pot of wine from the flowing water beside him, slowly poured himself a full glass, and after drinking it all in one gulp, he suddenly grabbed the long sword and slapped it on a few cases, and the young man's impatience and impatience were suddenly revealed.
"Speaking of which, isn't Han Gongzi just taking a fancy to Shaoguang?" She sneered, "Isn't it just a woman, if Han Gongzi wins the sword in my hand, what if I give it to you?" The master of this hall is to see that the rain pavilion is not pleasing to the eye, and the vertical son assassinated the head of my sect first, knowing that the master of this hall has fallen in love with Shaoguang but still does not give face, even if he kills them, what can he do about me! ”
…… What arrogance!
Everyone looked at the suddenly angry Hall Master Yu in amazement, and couldn't believe that he really dared to challenge the second disciple of the Ouyang Alliance Master in front of the banquet master's family, was he young and vigorous and didn't know how to be polite, or was he really a hero who was sad about the beauty?
In the face of provocation, it is not Han Wenyan who can endure it. Seeing that the other party had already put on a posture, he snorted coldly, and suddenly drew his sword and rushed forward. Xi Yutang also drew his sword to meet the enemy at the same time, and the two rushed out of the attic in the blink of an eye, came to the lotus pond, and one person occupied one side, using the lotus leaf as a pad, and jingled and fought.
Lin Yuan looked at the two of them with a headache, and helplessly faced Yue Qingfeng, "Qingfeng, junior brother he ......"
"It doesn't matter." Yue Qingfeng interrupted him with a light smile, "Gongzi Han and Hall Master Yu are both temperamental, and they are measured, Brother Lin can rest assured." ”
…… As a result, it didn't take long for Han Gongzi, who was measured, to pick off the long sword in the hall master's hand with a sword, and kicked the person into the lotus pond with a flying kick.
Everyone's jaws almost hit the ground.
Yu Yang lost?
Defeated the siege of the five Listening to the Rain Pavilion killers, and the person who killed Yan Sixteen with his own hands actually lost?!!
“…… Brother! Seeing this, Jiang Qiantong immediately rushed out.
"Xiaowei!" The Mo family brothers and sisters immediately followed.
"Miss Jiang be careful of your step!" Zheng Er also immediately followed.
As soon as a few people took the lead, everyone looked at each other for a moment, and they all stepped forward to watch. Yue Qingfeng was stunned, turned his head and whispered to Qiu Yuan, followed Lin Yuan to get up and walk to the lotus pond, unable to tell whether he was angry or helpless.
He roughly understood that Xi Yutang's move was deliberate, and the intention behind it was probably greater than losing face, but this approach still made him feel a little unhappy.
Everyone gathered beside the lotus pond, Jiang Qiantong looked nervously at the place where Xi Yutang fell into the water, and no one floated for a long time, anxiously pulling Mo Yin's sleeves, and looking at Yue Qingfeng with a pair of water-cutting autumn pupils for help.
"The younger the master, the senior brother he ......"
Before the words fell, only a loud sound was heard, and a * head emerged from the edge of the pond, Xi Yutang coughed for a while, and then looked at Han Wenyan standing on the lotus leaf with a pale face, the latter raised his eyebrows proudly, flew to the shore, and smiled proudly, "Thank you for your advice." ”
Xi Yutang silently retracted his gaze, unusually silent, and saw Jiang Qiantong squatting on the edge of the pool with his long hand waiting for her, so he took advantage of the situation to put his hand up and borrowed his strength to get out of the lotus pond.
As soon as she landed, she saw Qiu Yuan rushing over with a black robe, and without saying a word, she wrapped her head and face tightly. Xi Yutang coughed while letting Qiu Yuan busy, and quickly glanced at Yue Qingfeng, a wisp of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, and as soon as his eyes were closed, the person fell.
Jiang Qiantong was the closest, and he hurriedly caught the person, and the six gods asked Yue Qingfeng for help with his eyes. The latter's eyes flashed, he walked over from the crowd, took the person from Jiang Qiantong's arms, and said unhurriedly, "Hall Master Yu thinks that he has been injured, and Yue will take him down to rest, and you will forgive me for not accompanying him." ”
Only then did everyone come back to their senses and suddenly realize.
No wonder, it turned out that although Hall Master Yu was able to kill Yan Sixteen, he was still injured!
That's right, how could the elder of the Listening Rain Pavilion not have a few brushes, if Yu Yang was not injured at all, then it would be terrifying!
Thinking like this, everyone's gaze at Han Wenyan became complicated again. Han Wenyan was still immersed in the joy of defeating Yu Yang, who was famous in Jiangnan, but at this time, he also came to his senses, and his face frowned ugly.
"I'll go too!" Jiang Qiantong said nervously.
Yue Qingfeng saw that the corners of her skirt were wet, so she also nodded, "It's okay, follow me." ”
As he spoke, he hugged the person horizontally, and walked out of Qushui Tower with a little effort.
He is the host, and the guest naturally can't let it go if something happens, although everyone is a little envious of the young master personally taking people to the doctor, but they are soon relieved and disperse, leaving only Han Wenyan standing by the lotus pond with an abnormal expression, I don't know what he is thinking, Lin Yuan saw this, patted him on the shoulder, and turned to leave.
Out of Qushui Tower, Xi Yutang opened her eyes, and wanted to open her mouth to let Yue Qingfeng let her down, but a sound passed into her ears, "Jiang Qiantong followed behind." ”
Xi Yutang suddenly stayed still honestly, and let Yue Qingfeng carry people into a nearby courtyard.
After putting the person on the bed, Yue Qingfeng checked Xi Yutang's pulse in front of Jiang Qiantong, and after a long time, he said quite seriously, "Miss Jiang, please go to Yunmengyuan and bring Dr. Shen over." ”
Hearing that Shen Qi was going to be dispatched, Jiang Qiantong's face changed, "Is he very strict?" Is it really hurt? ”
"Yue is not a doctor, so I dare not assert it." Yue Qingfeng flickered at the girl in front of him seriously, "However, Sect Master Xi is really disordered at this time, and his pulse is vain, so it is better for Doctor Shen to see it before making a decision." ”
The young master of the Yue family was famous, Jiang Qiantong didn't expect him to deceive people with his eyes open, and immediately hurried to the direction of Yunmengyuan. Qiu Yuan arrived a few steps behind, and began to prepare hot water without waiting for his master's instructions, but he was very clever.
Seeing Jiang Qiantong leaving, Yue Qingfeng said coldly, "Si Nian, guard the door, except for Shen Qi, no one is allowed to enter." ”
Si Nian's shadow suddenly appeared in the room, "Yes." ”
As soon as the door was closed, Yue Qingfeng found a chair and sat down, coughing lightly, while watching Xi Yutang swoop over and get up, there was no one with that spirit.
"Thank you." She said to the young man in front of her.
Yue Qingfeng looked at her with a clear face, "Do you want to move Han Wenyan?" ”
Seeing that his mind was guessed, Xi Yutang no longer concealed it, "That's right." ”
"Are you going to keep your eyes on it?" He raised an eyebrow.
Xi Yutang nodded.
'Yu Yang' has been in the limelight too much recently, which is not a good thing, and taking Jiang Nan's eyes off her through this matter will help her to act next. No one is perfect, no one can accept a powerful 'Yu Yang' on his side, he has shortcomings, so he can integrate more easily. Whether it is to be angry and angry, or to offend people regardless of the injury, the identity of 'Yu Yang' can be more in line with the setting of a young hall master with strong martial arts but a high heart.
Lin Yuan and Han Wenyan came to the Jiangnan Gang on this trip, but after the Zuihualou incident, seeing the two of them, Xi Yutang realized that she needed to do some remedies to avoid premature violence in the vest. Dew.
Although 'Yu Yang' is the leader in this matter, she hopes that Ouyang Xuan's eyes can still be on other families and sects in Jiangnan, and the only way to save money and trouble is to use his strength.
She needs Ouyang Xuan to have the impression that 'the Jiangnan Gang is strongly promoted by the Yue family, the Xuantian Sect Master, or other families', and the hall master of 'Yu Yang' is just being made into a raft and pushed to the front of the stage.
She also needs the identity of 'Yu Yang', the Xuantian Sect Master can't appear in Jiangnan, he should stay in the Snow Mountain 'well'.
Besides, she was going to kill Han Wenyan, since he took the initiative to send it to the door, it was really unreasonable not to do it. However, the time has not yet come for Fair and Honest and Ouyang Xuan to tear their faces, when Yu Yang's vest is not guaranteed, and when Xuantian will start a war with Wushan.
Although Ouyang Xuan deserves to die, the position of alliance leader needs him to sit for the time being.
Thinking like this, Xi Yutang suddenly understood why Yue Qingfeng was reluctant to take Ouyang Xuan to play, but he was still willing to let him be the leader of the martial arts alliance.
It's better to have a stupid enemy on the surface than to have a soldier in the dark.
Yue Qingfeng also thought of this, coughed for a while, and laughed angrily, "Intend to push me to the front?" You're unceremonious to take advantage of me! ”
Xi Yutang blinked, looking innocent, "Do I have it?" ”
“……”
After staring at the person in front of him for a long time, Yue Qingfeng coughed twice, slowly adjusted his cuffs, and said lightly, "Xi Yutang, only my own people can make me willing to be used, and you are using me while trying to keep your distance from me...... Isn't it too much? ”
Xi Yutang pursed his lips in a weak heart, and only spoke for a long time, "I'll compensate you." ”
Yue Qingfeng's smile faded, "You have always been decisive in killing, and you have no scruples about using chess pieces, but only in me, you will always want to distance yourself from me, so you will plan comprehensively and do your best, even if I show 10,000 kindness, I can't wait to dig out my heart and lungs for you to drive, it is not enough for you to take a second look...... The trip to Wushan, the Jiangnan Gang, and the Zuihualou, although they are used, are still a win-win situation, and I just don't want to owe me a little more. ”
He was silent for a while, swallowed his cough, and continued, "You know that I have always been thoughtful, and one thing can come up with different results, but what you said, the layout forgot to consider my gains and losses, and at worst, I can say that I can be patient with me when you have run out, and no longer scruples and softness." On the plus side, can you think that you have included me among your own people? ”
He raised his head and looked at the stunned woman on the bed without squinting, "...... Xi Yutang, which choice are you? ”
Xi Yutang looked at the young man in front of him who couldn't stop coughing in a daze, and suddenly couldn't find a trace of direction in a panic for some reason.
She subconsciously didn't want to think deeply about the problem that was put on the surface by the other party, and always felt that if she thought a little more along her lines, she might get a conclusion that she didn't dare to accept, so she just lowered her head quickly, avoiding his gaze.
"You want to get into my game, it's not impossible, but it's not the time. I have to do this, you can ask for it, and I say that I will compensate you, and I will not let you suffer. ”
Yue Qingfeng's tone was quiet, "Are you sure?" ”
Xi Yutang did not answer.
After a long time, Yue Qingfeng said, "It's okay...... Since you want to escape, I won't force you. Yue is willing to be used by you, but you know that I am not a good type. I ask again, are you sure you want to compensate me? ”
There was a long silence in the room, and after a long time, Xi Yutang raised his head, "Yes." ”
"Any compensation?"
"As long as you don't shake my Xuantian foundation, you won't hinder my great cause of revenge."
"Okay."
Yue Qingfeng got up suddenly, and in the blink of an eye, the person was already standing in front of Xi Yutang, her chin was clamped slightly by the cold fingers, and in the next second, her eyes darkened, and a cold kiss fell heavily on her lips.
He seemed to be extremely angry, and his slightly cool lips ran over the lips and teeth of the person in front of him, and he bit hard. As soon as the two of them touched and separated, Xi Yutang gasped in pain, and the fishy sweet smell suddenly filled his mouth.
She raised her eyes angrily, and her powerful palm burst out in an instant, but the latter stepped back a few feet and broke through the door, unscathed.
Then, the sound of the breeze came from afar.
"The compensation has been taken, you can do whatever you want, you don't need any scruples, I will take care of the aftermath."
