Chapter 433: Kyoto's Lady Rite of Passage
In Kyoto in March, it was warm and cold, and a light snowfall the day before yesterday dispelled the haze.
These days, Li Shaoyang has come out of the depression, and he is also used to the days without a system, invited by Zhou Dashao and Wang Fengyue, in the past half a month, in addition to discussing medical reform with Director Zhao, he is playing with the two young men.
From the Rehe Changchun Garden in the north, to the Yutan Laoshan Temple in the south, as well as the famous Hutonger and Laowangfu in Kyoto, until the willow trees on the bank of the Baqiao outside the old Desheng Gate sprouted, Li Shaoyang had his own time.
He now lives in Toraikaku, northwest of Goonyama, the most famous private estate in Kyoto, with three villas privately owned, as well as a horse farm and winery. This was specially vacated by Zhou Dashao for Li Shaoyang.
It's just that Li Shaoyang felt that the place was too big, there were too few people, and it was not as good as the Hanshan Academy in Gusu City, so he told Zhou Dashao after a few days, and moved to the old Rouge Hutong Alley alone, which is an old Kyoto Hutong, one of the eight major alleys, and Li Shaoyang lives in a large quadrangle courtyard with three entrances and four cross-courtyards.
This courtyard used to be called "Makka Hall", and it was a famous place of spring buildings more than a hundred years ago. During the Kangxi period, the great dramatist Li Yu lived diagonally opposite, and after the four major Hui classes entered Beijing, the Tan family class also lived here. Today, it has been preserved as a cultural relic, and being able to live here is a symbol of status.
Since Li Shaoyang moved in, he lived in a simple house, but he quietly went out every night to meet with Director Zhao, and occasionally met Wang Shan to talk about current affairs.
After meeting with Wang Shan for the second time, Li Shaoyang urgently mobilized Jiu'er into Beijing, then Isabella, as well as Zhou Mulan and the returning widow.
He was now worried, more and more uneasy, for there was silence everywhere now, and there was no doomsday call.
But just when he was in the air, Zhou Dashao came with excitement on his face, saying that Kyoto was going to hold a large-scale cocktail party recently, and all the people who came were powerful and rich, and asked Li Shaoyang if he was interested.
Li Shaoyang was not interested at the time, and reluctantly showed a smile: "Old Zhou, I've been unwell lately, you can have fun by yourself." ”
Zhou Dashao was reluctant to let him go: "Shaoyang, don't mind, I know that there is no shortage of women around you, and there are beautiful women like Yanran, but this time is different." He said with his eyes narrowed: "This cocktail party was held in the Donglai Pavilion where you lived, and it was held to celebrate Zhao Jiaming's only daughter coming-of-age ceremony." At that time, famous beauties in Kyoto will go to participate, like Xue Mingyue's girl. ”
Zhao Jiaming...... Li Shaoyang became a little interested at this time: "Are you talking about the legendary invisible rich man?" It is said that he has assets of 100 billion US dollars and is known as the richest man in China. ”
Zhou Dashao smiled: "100 billion US dollars? That's all rumors, Zhao Jiaming's wealth is not measurable in money, he controls a third of Britain's energy supply, Europe's second-largest quantum fund, and Russia's private oil and gas fields. This guy is an energy giant, and he can almost wrestle with those OPECs. ”
Zhou Dashao is worthy of engaging in capital operation, and Li Shaoyang understands this: "The energy industry is always linked to politics, and it is also the treasure that major organizations in the world are competing for. ”
Zhou Dashao was suddenly bored: "Don't keep talking about these serious things, what I want to tell you is Zhao Jiaming's only daughter, called Zhao Ling'er, I spent a lot of money to hire three paparazzi to secretly take photos of her, but I found nothing." I only heard that this girl is amazing. ”
Li Shaoyang looked at him with disdain: "How beautiful?" Is that an exaggeration? ”
He lost interest again.
Zhou Dashao rubbed his head: "Okay, you are not interested in Zhao Jiaming's only daughter, what about the other one, this coming-of-age ceremony, there is a bigger girl, who scares you when she says it, she is the daughter of the Wang family." ”
Li Shaoyang is really interested now: "The daughter of the Wang family? Who, Wang Fengyue, that guy never mentioned that he had a sister. ”
Zhou Dashao looked at him with a smile: "I knew you would like it, this woman was just picked up by the old man Wang, the old man said that it was his illegitimate daughter, and she was sent to a master of the world many years ago to cultivate, and now she recognizes her ancestors and returns to her ancestors, and her name is also very wonderful, called Wang Yaoji." Just hearing this name makes people's hearts itch. ”
Li Shaoyang laughed: "It's interesting, the daughter of the Wang family and the daughter of the richest man actually held a coming-of-age ceremony together, aren't you afraid of the two families fighting!" ”
Zhou Dashao raised his finger and shook it: "You are wrong, you have to understand that these upper-level figures have a purpose in everything they do, for example, Zhao Jiaming, although he is the richest man in China, but it is a blank in our Chinese market, and now he has entered Huaguo in a high-profile manner, so he naturally has to pave the way for his next step." ”
Zhou Dashao became serious when he said it: "What is the identity of the Wang family, the secret protector of the country, has incomparable influence in both the military and political aspects of China, and the Wang family also has aviation resources, and they are also businessmen." Zhao Jiaming wants to open up the situation in Huaguo, so he naturally wants to show favor to the Wang family, and this coming-of-age ceremony is the best opportunity. ”
Li Shaoyang had already thought of this, so he immediately got up and said, "Help me get two invitations, I really want to go and see these two peerless beauties who suddenly appeared." ”
Zhou Dashao snapped his fingers: "OK, but brother, don't rob me when the time comes, otherwise I won't have a chance at all." ”
Li Shaoyang smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Then it depends on your ability." ”
……
In the early spring of March, Kyoto Gyoen Mountain came to the pavilion.
Li Shaoyang was still wearing the white shirt and black pants, and brought Isabella to the meeting.
In order to facilitate the protection of Li Shaoyang, Isabella also changed into men's clothes, and especially cut her long hair short, and now she is wearing a purple suit, handsome like a beautiful man who walked out of the painting, so that Li Shaoyang stood next to her, and instantly became a first-class role as a driver.
After coming to Donglai Pavilion, Li Shaoyang turned around and looked at Isabella, and gently helped her untie her tie: "You look so pretty, especially like GAY." ”
Isabella pursed her lips and displeased: "I knew that Jiu'er wouldn't pick clothes." ”
The two were chatting casually, but three mighty 'Eagle Dragon' gunships roared into the sky.
At this time, in Kyoto, a place with tight airspace, there was a helicopter, and it went straight to Toraikaku.
Isabella frowned and looked, but the phone rang, she took out her mobile phone and answered it for a while, then showed a look of surprise: "Brother Li, it's Xue Jiansheng and they are here." ”
……
The Scorpio Rapid Reaction Force has been training for many days, and finally ushered in the first mission, the task is to protect Donglai Pavilion and ensure the smooth progress of this reception.
After the gunship fell, Xue Jiansheng wore a fourth-generation defensive suit newly developed by the northern military industry, and led the brothers energetically, but did not go to the place of the mission, but gathered in the rear of the Donglai Pavilion, and waited for Li Shaoyang to come over, and then lined up to salute.
Pei Xuefei, the chief of staff who came with the Scorpion troops, couldn't help but be furious when he saw this scene, and strode over and said, "The mission briefing hasn't started yet, do you still have discipline?" ”
Saying that, Pei Xuefei looked at Li Shaoyang proudly: "He's no longer a Scorpio instructor, so he doesn't need to salute him." ”
Xue Jiansheng snorted coldly, ignored her, but leaned in front of Li Shaoyang: "Instructor, this mission is here to play, and my little aunt is also inside, and later he said that he wanted to meet me alone, and asked the instructor for instructions." ”
Xue Jiansheng's little aunt, that is Xue Mingyue, who had a relationship with each other last time.
Li Shaoyang waved his hand: "When you come to carry out the mission, you have to listen to the chief, and I am indeed not your instructor, but if you want to see Xue Mingyue, you should wait until the mission is over, the first appearance of the Scorpion Force must be perfect, you, understand?" ”
Xue Jiansheng saluted, and the other team members shouted: "Understood! ”
Li Shaoyang said that he was not an instructor anymore, but he subconsciously waved his hand to make them act, so angry that Pei Xuefei stomped his feet.
Seeing that the little beauty who hadn't seen her for many days twisted her waist to leave, Li Shaoyang unceremoniously grabbed her: "Xue Fei, your face is very bad." Nodding to Isabella, Isabella walked vigilantly to the side of the path, monitoring the surrounding situation.
Pei Xuefei noticed that something was wrong, and wanted to break free, but her whole body was weak, and she was lifted by the man and carried on her shoulder.
"You, what are you going to do, I'm on a mission!" Pei Xuefei's complexion changed.
Li Shaoyang carried her to the docked helicopter: "I see that Staff Officer Pei seems to have a bad face, then of course I have to check my body carefully, be good, I will be very gentle." ”
The helicopter hatch closed, and the pilot obediently came down and walked far to the side to stand guard.
After a long, long time, Pei Xuefei shyly bowed her head and jumped down, and walked to the task without saying a word, the buttons of her military uniform were crooked.
After a while, Li Shaoyang came down slowly, and beckoned to Isabella in the distance: "Let's go, the drinking party is about to start." ”
Isabella quietly took out a tissue and wiped off a red mark on the back of Li Shaoyang's neck, and then said in a low voice: "For this kind of entertaining banquet, why do you want Scorpio to come over as a bodyguard?" ”
Li Shaoyang nodded: "You can think of this, that's growth." According to the unwritten rules, what kind of banquet uses what kind of security measures indicate the level of the banquet. As soon as Zhao Jiaming entered Huaguo, he got close to the Wang family, and he could also say that the old man Wang brought his only daughter out to cheer for him, which means that Zhao Jiaming must have communicated with his superiors when he came to Huaguo this time, and the purpose of his coming is probably not just to do business. ”
As he spoke, he and Isabella walked to the entrance, and after taking out the invitation, they had to pass through the third-floor security check, until they walked to the big garden inside, Li Shaoyang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Just a week ago, I was still lying down and sleeping here, and if I come back today, I will be searched, which is really funny." ”
Isabella pursed her lips and smiled, and as soon as the two of them reached the depths of the garden, they heard a scream, and then the two men staggered to the ground with painful expressions.
Li Shaoyang stopped, only glanced at it and frowned: "Zhang Long Zhao Hu? ”
