The twelve gentle townships in Beijing are the most beautiful but the hundred flower buildings.

Baihualou is in the most prosperous Ruyi Hutong on West Street, and it is magnificent. All the women in the Baihualou have their strengths, and the men in Beijing are fascinated, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are making thousands of dollars every day.

The peony girl in Baihualou is the gold-lettered signboard of Baihualou. This woman is charming and proud. Because of the three-point orchid blood, the outline is deep, and it is even more glamorous. and acts boldly and spicy, but he is a good talent. All kinds of contradictions have deepened her charm. How many people spend a lot of money to want the hearts of Pomeranians, but unfortunately the peony girl does not sell her art, but tonight is the first night when she sells herself for the first time since she entered Baihualou for three years.

Baihualou was already overcrowded at this time, and the hall with swaying bead curtains was full of sons and brothers from noble families, and everyone wanted to be the guest of the peony girl.

The green-clothed man sitting in the middle was only in his early twenties, and his face was handsome, but the dark green under his eyes was disgusting to look at, and he was overindulged in knowledge at a glance. He shook the folding fan in one hand, and said a little romanticly: "Why hasn't the peony girl come out yet, tell you to wait for a while." ”

There was a young woman standing beside him, dressed in a thin pink gauze skirt, with a pair of jade arms holding a small cup of wine on the table, and gently feeding it to the mouth of the man in green: "Sister Peony is dressing up, Young Master Li's words can teach the slave family to be sad, is it possible to recognize only Sister Peony?" ”

This green-clothed boy is the eldest son of Li Dongfu, the prime minister of Beijing. Li Dongtong has two sons, the eldest son Li Yang does not learn and has no skills, sleeps in flowers and willows all day long, and learns seventy percent with Li Dong's lustful temperament. The child Li Ang is a smart and talented person, and he has made great achievements in his career at a young age.

Tonight is the first night when Li Yang came to Baihualou and wanted peonies.

In the seat not far from Li Dong, there was also a person with a drunken gaze. The beautiful blue jacket was full of wine stains at the moment, and he was followed by a big and three thick little guy. On the side, another beautiful woman was pouring wine for him. But it's Jiang Chao who has drunk wine and come here.

Jiang Chao's eyes were gloomy, and he pulled the woman who poured the wine into his arms, and said, "I heard that the peony in your building loves talents the most?" ”

The woman was unexpectedly pulled into his arms, just because she wanted to be shy, but she didn't want Jiang Chao to ask such a question. The woman in the Qinglou naturally knows how to observe words and colors, although she doesn't know how, but looking at the upper layer of Jiang Chao's clothes, she should also be a rich and noble family, so she didn't dare to slack off at the moment, and said in a soft voice: "It's not all, it's just that most of the people selected by Sister Peony are talented and learned." She laughed coquettishly: "Look at the appearance of the son, he is a real scholar, he must be eight years old, and he is rich and rich." ”

It's okay if she doesn't say it, as soon as she says this, Jiang Chao's face changed, and the leisurely posture of Liu Min sitting on a tall horse appeared in front of her again. Deng Shi pushed the woman away, and coldly took a sip of wine. The woman didn't understand why Jiang Chao was angry, and scolded in her heart, so she left with a smile.

At this moment, I could only hear a crisp voice from upstairs: "The peony girl has arrived." ”

When he landed, the surroundings were boiling. Li Yang, who was shaking the fan, listened to the movements in his hand, squinted his eyes and looked upstairs.

I saw a veiled woman appear upstairs, wearing an inky yellow hibiscus flower collared Xiao Shu yarn phoenix robe, a mopping floor-to-floor printed oblique skirt, and wearing a Bixia Luo flower silk silk. Long black hair, chic double ring fairy bun, gently and slowly squeezing the cloud sideburns with twisted silk rose copper step shaking, wearing an agate bracelet on the hand with skin like clotted fat, the waist is tied to stay in the silk, there is a fragrant bag of folded branches and flowers hanging on it, and the feet are wearing lotus embroidered shoes, and the whole person is like a spring peach and plum let.

Because she was covered with a veil, everyone couldn't see her face clearly, but when they saw that slender figure, they already felt itchy and unbearable, and they couldn't wait to rush forward and grab the veil off.

The woman was frank, standing on the small platform on the second floor, leaning against the pavilion, and suddenly chuckled, the voice was like a silver bell, crisp and pleasant, but with a little wildness. She stretched out a pair of hands as tender as jade and gently lifted the veil. When he landed, he revealed the face of the shy flower in the closed moon.

To tell the truth, although the peony's appearance is beautiful, it is not a national beauty, such as Jiang Susu or Jiang Ruan of the Jiang family, she is definitely incomparable. It's in that exotic atmosphere. Her complexion was slightly dark, but she didn't look rustic. Those blue eyes were like sapphires, and at a glance, most of the men's hearts present were hooked. Li Yang muttered: "This kind of natural stunner, if you get it, you will definitely be happy, peony, I want to decide!" ”

Although Jiang Chao is not as lustful as Li Yang on weekdays, he is a man in his bones, and he drank some wine. Now that the wine is surging, the peony is a natural stunner, and a fire comes out of my heart.

Peony is also a master, and all the men in Beijing want to play with her, but they don't know who played with whom. She tossed the veil down, and the men rushed to snatch it. The powerful young man who grabbed the last one put the veil under his nose and sniffed it gently, his eyes revealing a hint of obsession.

Li Yang frowned, but Peony smiled lightly upstairs and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, Peony is here, now, let's start the price." ”

Her posture and tone were bold and tearful, and when she landed, she caused a burst of madness in the audience. Li Yang's eyes were firmly fixed on her: "Such a wonderful person, I don't know what it feels like to be in bed." ”

He raised his hand at the little guy next to him, and the little guy immediately joined the bidding team.

Li Yang is confident, if this Beijing is said to be rich and noble, their Li family is definitely second to none. His son Li Dong also used to do this kind of thing to bid for the women of the Qinglou. Silver is just a trivial matter to him, as long as he can hold the beauty.

Although there are many famous sons in the audience, most of them who come to the Qinglou to bid are unlearned, even if they have a little ability, they are all afraid that the elders in the family will know, and they will be afraid of the money they have in hand after all. And he doesn't want it inside and out, and he is not afraid of his father knowing the Tao anyway. Maybe his father knew about it, and he would have to taste the stunning beauty again another day.

Li Yang was proud in his heart, the bidder was fierce at first, and then it slowly stopped, just because the price was no longer something that ordinary rich and noble people could add. Peony Yingying smiled, watching the silver add up little by little.

At the end of the day, there were only two people bidding. One is the little guy next to Li Yang, and the other is a man with five big and three rough.

Li Yang beckoned the little guy to return to his side, and seeing that the price had reached three thousand taels of gold, he lazily stretched out four fingers: "Four thousand taels." ”

The five big and three rough men retreated behind Jiang Chao and said in a low voice: "Young master, that guy is clearly provocative. ”

Jiang Chao was depressed and indignant in his heart, he was determined to get peony today, although he was already drunk, he vaguely knew that four thousand taels of gold was not a small amount. He simply didn't have that much silver. But listening to what Da Niu said, that person was provoking, and Liu Min's arrogant and disdainful eyes appeared in front of Jiang Chao's eyes. He gritted his teeth: "Five thousand taels!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the people around were shocked, and there was no famous prostitute in the world who had a price of five thousand taels of gold a night. Li Dong snorted, looked at Jiang Chao with a straight face, and saw that although Jiang Chao had a lot of clothes, he couldn't compare to himself in the end, and he was sure that the other party was slapping his swollen face and being fat, so he waved his hand indifferently: "Six thousand taels." ”

"Seven thousand taels." Jiang Chao gritted his teeth and said. When I looked at Li Yang again, I only felt that the person on that seat had changed, and it was the champion Lang who rode a horse and paraded the streets today, and the spring breeze was proud. There is only one thought in my heart, if I go down, I must compare him.

"Eight thousand taels." Li Yang said angrily.

"Nine thousand taels!" Jiang Chao broke a teacup.

Li Yang was furious in his heart, and he could also see that this person was deliberately going against him. He said: "Add another pearl." ”

Jiang Chao saw that he was no longer just called gold, and then looked at the wine cup in front of him, and suddenly his heart was half sober, he couldn't take out nine thousand taels of gold no matter what. Not only that, if Jiang Quan knew about it, he would have to beat him out of bed. But now in full view, why do you have to abstain from voting so gloomily? At this moment, he has been aroused by Li Yang's competitive spirit, and his actions are always faster than reason. He looked up, just in time to see the look of the peony on the second floor. The eyes were smiling, as if they were gentle encouragement, but also like silent mockery. His heart fluttered, and he said arrogantly: "Ten thousand taels!" ”

There was no more sound around.

Everyone looked at him like a fool, but Jiang Chao only stared at Li Yang. In his eyes, Li Yang is the angry Liu Min at the moment, and he can't do anything about him.

Although Li Yang is a gentleman, he is well versed in the rules of the land of fireworks. Although the beauty is good, 10,000 taels is too expensive, and 10,000 taels can already buy several young orchids with clean bodies. Come to think of it, it's really not cost-effective. Although he was angry in his heart, he still smiled and said: "Since this is the case, the young master will not take advantage of others, Peony girl, it's a pity." With that, he arched his hand and turned away. However, when he walked to the door, he couldn't calm down after all, and ordered the little guy next to him with a pair of vicious eyes: "Give Young Master Ben a good check on the person just now!" Rob a woman with me, and teach him to regret it for the rest of his life! ”

After Li Yang left, Peony chuckled: "The son is willing to spend a lot of money for Peony, and Peony is really moved in his heart." Please send the silver ticket to the mother downstairs, and then come to the peony boudoir for a small gathering. ”

Silver ticket? Jiang Chao reacted suddenly, and then looked at Peony's gentle blue eyes, and somehow, he broke out in a cold sweat. He naturally knew that he had no extra silver to pay for peonies, but Baihualou was not completely helpless in Beijing, so what could he do if he made trouble.

At this moment, the big cow beside him, who was five big and three thick, said: "My young master was in too much of a hurry to go out today, and he didn't bring any money." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone burst into laughter. On the first night of buying peonies, he didn't bring any silver, wouldn't he laugh off his big teeth when he said it.

Peony looked at him with interest: "But Baihualou doesn't have the rule of credit, why don't you take the silver first, let's talk about it again?" ”

Jiang Chao was furious when he said this, he was already drinking and acting without taboos, and then looked at Peony's face full of sarcasm, and jumped up and scolded: "It's just a bitch in the skin and meat business!" Seeing the money, he also said that he loved what kind of talent, and he was coy! Slut! ”

Peony's complexion changed, and a group of guards with knives and sticks suddenly poured out around her, Peony has a wide range of social contacts on weekdays, and high-ranking officials and nobles are also willing to sell her a face. Some of these guards were sent by nobles and were responsible for protecting the peonies. At this moment, Jiang Chao was tightly surrounded, and Peony said lightly: "It seems that Gongzi seems to be here to make trouble, or is he trying to take advantage of the trouble to repay the debt?" Baihualou treats guests who pay their debts according to the old rules," she nodded her chin and motioned to the person to come over: "Does Childe want to keep his left hand or his right hand?" ”

Jiang Chao was shocked, and he was about to rush forward, scolding and scolding: "I'll kill you slut!" ”

Where the guards would tolerate him, they subdued him to the ground in a few strokes. Seeing this, Da Niu panicked and said, "The girl raises her noble hand!" My young master doesn't want to repay the debt, please treat the girl to the capital Jiang Mansion, my young master is the second son of Jiang Shangshu Mansion, the girl can take the young master's token to get the silver. ”

There was a discussion among the people around him, Jiang Shangshumen was upright, but he didn't expect that the son he gave birth to was such a scoundrel. Everyone couldn't help but think of the rumors of Jiang Susu at the Lantern Festival a few days ago, and the heart really knew the face but not the heart, and the Jiang family didn't seem to be as bright and upright as it seemed.

Peony's eyes rolled: "In this case, Mom, please take some people to Jiang's mansion, and everyone present also please testify with me, this Young Master Jiang spent 10,000 taels here in Peony to buy peonies tonight." When Young Master Jiang sent the silver, Peony would naturally have a long talk with Young Master Jiang all night. After that, he couldn't bear Jiang Chao's glance anymore, and walked away.

Although Peony is said to be a Qinglou woman in Beijing, she can be involved in a wide range of forces, and she knows many dignitaries and nobles, and how many people still sell her face. It's true that I didn't take Jiang Chao's identity in my eyes.

At night, Jiang Ruan closed the book and was about to rest, when he faintly heard crying outside. She rubbed her forehead: "What's wrong?" ”

Bai Zhi got up and brought her hot water: "I don't know, that's it, the dew has already come out of the water to inquire." ”

As she was talking, Dew Drop had already flashed into the house, and when she saw Jiang Ruan and Bai Zhi looking at her, she said, "It seems that it is someone from Baihualou, who said that the second young master owes silver." ”

"I begged for money, but I came to the house." Bai Zhi couldn't hide the disdain in her words, and she finally had a resistance to a place like Baihualou.

"Madame and the old man quarreled very much," Dew Drop smiled slyly: "Madame wants to ransom the second young master with silver, but the old man said that there is not so much silver." The lady wept and quarreled with the master. ”

Jiang Ruan smiled: "Madame, I'm really wrong to blame him." "There are indeed no 10,000 taels of gold in Jiang's mansion, this mansion looks magnificent, but in the final analysis, it is just an empty shell. What's more, a few days ago, for Jiang Chao's scientific expedition, a large amount of silver was spent in Jiang's mansion.

"There's such a big thing going on in the house, don't go and see how to do it if you don't go to see what to do." Jiang Ruan stood up: "Let's go and take a look." ”

Luzhu slept in the next room with Mama Zhou, and Jiang Ruan didn't wake her up. Forsythia and Bai Zhi put on a coat and cloak for her, and as soon as they walked to the gate of the courtyard, they saw Furong helping Jiang Dan to come out. When Jiang Dan saw her, she was startled, hurriedly saluted her, and asked cautiously, "Did the eldest sister also hear about the second brother?" ”

Jiang Ruan bowed: "Although I don't know what happened, I have to take a look." ”

"I think the same way," Jiang Dan lowered his head shyly: "After all, they are all their own sisters." ”

Jiang Ruan glanced at her with a smile and said no more. The two got up and walked down the hall. As soon as he entered the hall, the first thing he heard was Xia Yan's cry. Jiang Ruan raised his eyebrows, seeing that several aunts were at the scene, Jiang Li looked gloating, Jiang Susu's face was white, and if you looked closely, you could see the panic in her eyes.

The eldest aunt was carefully persuading Xia Yan: "Madame, don't cry, what should I do if I cry." ”

Xia Yan didn't look at her, only grabbed Jiang Quan's arm tightly, and cried: "Master, that's our biological flesh and blood, do you really plan to ignore him?" ”

Jiang Quan pursed his lips and glanced down at Xia Yan, Xia Yan's hair was slightly messy at the moment, and his face full of bookish breath was full of tears, which looked even more beautiful. After all, she is a woman she really loves, Jiang Quan helped her up with one hand and sighed: "It's not that I don't want to save him, it's just that there is not so much silver in the house." ”

"We can borrow it." Xia Yan was a little crazy: "Master, don't you know many bureaucrats, just borrow it, it won't be long before I can go to my mother's house to borrow it, master, Chao'er can't fall into their hands, what kind of place is that Baihualou, master!" ”

"Nonsense!" Jiang Quan withdrew his hand, and his gaze became cold and hard again: "Borrowing money from colleagues, are you trampling on the face of my Jiang Mansion like this?" ”

"Father, what's going on? What is Baihualou? Jiang Ruan asked. Only then did everyone see her and Jiang Dan coming, and Jiang Quan frowned: "What are you doing here?" ”

Bai Zhi and Forsythia pouted, the aunts in the house are here, and they are not called Jiang Ruan and Jiang Dan, this is really when they are transparent. Jiang Ruan said: "When I heard the sound of controversy at night, I came to take a look at it when I was concerned. But what happened? ”

Her expression of concern did not seem to be fake, and Jiang Quan stared at her with complicated eyes. Under the lights, Jiang Ruan's eyebrows were picturesque, wearing a bright red Ruyi satin cloak, which made the whole person half as exquisite as a jade carving. He had also heard about the Lantern Festival a few days ago, and he had doubts about Jiang Ruan in his heart. The girl in front of her was slim, and if she looked closely, she also had a bit of Zhao Mei's appearance as an angry horse in fresh clothes.

He was in a trance, but Xia Yan's eyes lit up when he saw Jiang Ruan, and he pounced over and said: "Ruan'er, Niang Zhilu said that you are the most soft-hearted and a kind child, now that something has happened to your second brother, can you take out the dowry left by your sister to save your brother first?" After a few days, my mother will pay you back. ”

She looked at her expectantly, Jiang Ruan looked at her quietly, Xia Yan was so bad that he would ask her for help. It's a pity, she smiled slightly: "Mother, where are you talking about, if I really have silver, I will naturally take it out to save my second brother." But my mother also knew that five years ago I went to Zhuangzi, where the evil servants bullied the master, and the dowry left to me by my mother had already been looted by those evil slaves. She sighed: "Ruan Niang is really powerless. ”

Xia Yan let go of his hand and looked at her blankly. Jiang Ruan looked at her calmly, I don't know if Lu Dao Xia Yan will regret her intestines at this moment, after all, she was the one who sent her to Zhuangzi at the beginning! Now it's your own fault!

Zhao Mei broke off relations with the Zhao family in order to marry Jiang Quan, and there was little dowry. But in the end, he was also born in Jiangmen, and he has raised it over the years, plus the jewelry in the past, there are also one or two thousand. In order to maintain her virtuous and virtuous face, Xia Yan never had the idea of these dowries. The things that were taken away from Zhuangzi were returned as early as when Wang Yushi avenged her, but at that time, Jiang Ruan asked Forsythia to exchange all the things for silver tickets, so that one day Xia Yan asked about the dowry, and he could confidently refuse.

Xia Yan seemed to have his whole body hollowed out, and his whole body was paralyzed to the ground, muttering, "My Chao'er, is it true that he has reached a dead end?" ”

Seeing her like this, Jiang Susu finally couldn't help but run to her side, and the mother and daughter cried loudly together.

Jiang Li frowned: "The second brother is really too nonsense, there is really not so much silver in the house, and it makes my father angry." ”

The second aunt covered Jiang Li's mouth, knowing that now was not the time to add fuel to the fire. Sure enough, Jiang Quan glared at Jiang Li fiercely, and when Hongying saw this, she stepped forward: "Madame, don't just think about crying now, although there are no 10,000 taels of gold in the house, there should be thousands of taels." Why don't you go and get it first, and then talk to the people in Baihualou, and let them release them first. ”

Jiang Ruan smiled in his heart and glanced at the red tassel. Hongying herself was born in the Qinglou, and she will not know the rules of the Qinglou. The more popular the girl, the higher the value, and not everyone can be excused. If you owe a large amount of money and can't pay it, you have to leave a life. If it is not finished, there is no reason to pay on credit, if the people of the Jiang Mansion go to talk to Baihualou tonight, and they are only willing to pay part of the money, it is equivalent to admitting that the remaining part of the Jiang Mansion cannot afford it, then according to the rules, Jiang Chao has to keep a part of him.

This fifth aunt, looking gentle and graceful, was born in the market in the end, and her ruthlessness is not inferior to her.

Jiang Quan looked at Xia Yan's mother and daughter, who were crying hoarsely, his heart softened, and finally said: "Don't cry, Steward Zhang went to the treasury to get the silver, and found a few people to go to Baihualou." ”

As soon as Xia Yan's crying stopped, he breathed a sigh of relief for the time being.

Jiang Quan saw Jiang Ruan and a few people on the side again: "It's useless for you to stay here, go back to the courtyard, don't come out and walk around casually." ”

Jiang Dan hurriedly responded timidly, Jiang Ruan bowed his head, and walked out of the hall with Jiang Li. Jiang Li's courtyard was not in the same direction as Jiang Ruan, and before leaving, Jiang Ruan said to Jiang Dan: "I didn't expect the second brother to make such a big mistake, if my grandmother knew the truth, I don't know how she would get angry." ”

Jiang Dan was stunned, Jiang Li's footsteps paused, and soon left. Jiang Dan asked: "What does the eldest sister mean, doesn't grandmother still know about it?" ”

"Have you ever seen your grandmother tonight?" Jiang Ruan said: "Since you don't see it, you naturally don't know the way." She walked slowly, with the usual smile on her face, I don't know if Mrs. Jiang will wake up tomorrow morning and learn that half of the savings of Jiang's life are used to pay for Jiang Chao's spirit, will she be mad with anger.

And Jiang Chao is destined not to come back completely.

That night, Jiang Ruan slept very deeply, and when he opened his eyes in the morning, the sunlight outside had already shone into the house. Bai Zhi saw that she was awake, and said with a smile: "The girl slept well last night, but she got up late this morning." ”

"Mother didn't ask me to say goodbye, so it's okay to be late." Jiang Ruan smiled.

"Madame, how can you be in the mood to let the girl say hello now, it's too late to be busy." Forsythia brought hot water, and said while serving Jiang Ruan's clean face: "The Lintel Qingyuan can turn the sky upside down." ”

Jiang Ruan took the veil: "How is it now?" ”

"The second young master was chopped off with the little finger of his right hand." Forsythia said: "When I came back, it was bloody and scared to death." After a pause, she said again: "Now it is spread outside, saying that the second young master went to Baihualou to spend a lot of money, but in fact, the pocket is empty, our Jiang Mansion can't take out so much silver for a while, only gave five thousand taels, and the people in Baihualou spared the second young master's life, and only chopped off the second young master's little finger." ”

Jiang Ruan cleaned his face and returned the veil to Forsythia: "What else?" ”

"The girl is really divine," Forsythia said: "The old lady doesn't know how Lu Dao knows about this matter, so she was furious and grounded both the lady and the second girl. I fell ill angrily, and now the doctor has just finished reading the second young master, and he wants to check the old lady's pulse. ”

"The third sister is so fast." Jiang Ruan smiled slightly: "Can this matter spread in Beijing?" ”

"That's nature." Dew came in from outside, heard Jiang Ruan's words, and took it by the way: "Now everyone knows the story of the second young master of Lu Dao who spent a lot of money for the beauty in Baihualou last night, and he was chopped off a finger, and everyone said that Jiang Mansion was actually very poor." Speaking of the last sentence, she looked at Jiang Ruan's expression a little embarrassed. saw that Jiang Ruan didn't take her words to heart at all, but asked about something else: "How is my father now?" ”

"The old man is angry, if it weren't for the fact that the second young master was sick in bed and unconscious, he would have rushed up to beat him. It seems that something terrible has happened. ”

Jiang Ruan lowered his head and took a sip of the tea handed by Bai Zhi, the face of the Jiang Mansion was completely lost after Jiang Chao made such a fuss last night. For a person like Jiang Quan, who cares about fame, it is tantamount to a huge blow. After this incident, the excerpts of the imperial history are indispensable to refer to him, and it will also be an obstacle to his career.

Of course, the most important thing is that there was a conflict with the Li family in the capital. Last night, Jiang Chao won the championship, and he was bound to offend Li Yang. Li Yang is narrow-minded, how can he be so easy to give up?

Let's go on like this, Jiang Ruan looked out the window, Jiang Chao has occupied the name of Jiang's concubine for so many years, and the world has almost forgotten that there is still a Jiang Xinzhi in the Jiang family. This debt, let her come to recover it on behalf of Jiang Xinzhi, Jiang Chao, is this painful, there is only one step from heaven to hell, but this is just the beginning.

In the study, Xia Yan looked at Jiang Quan in a panic: "Master, you can't lock Chao'er up, why don't you want him to go to Guozijian?" ”

"Rebel!" Jiang Quan was furious: "Listen to what is being said about my Jiang Mansion outside, go to Baihualou to learn and spend a lot of money, my Jiang Mansion has raised him for so many years!" The name of the imperial examination fell to Sun Mountain, and he only knew how to drink all day long, you raised a good son! ”

"I know that the old man is angry in his heart," Xia Yan knelt down: "But Chao'er is young and ignorant, who hasn't made a mistake." Chao'er is also my son born in October, when I was a child, Chao'er was scolded as a concubine, sir, have you forgotten, everything Chao'er did was to win glory for the Jiang family. This time, he was already extremely uncomfortable in his heart, so he would make a big mistake, and now he has been punished, hasn't he? Chao'er has lost a finger, please have mercy on him. ”

Jiang Quan looked at Xia Yan who was kneeling on the ground and took a deep breath. This is the woman he loves, but it makes her wait for years to become his wife. Jiang Chao was a concubine when he was born, and no matter how much he compensated, it would be useless.

Xia Yan said again: "Master, don't you even want your only son?" ”

Jiang Quan's heart jumped heavily, Jiang Xinzhi's life and death were unknown five years ago, and he didn't have this son. Xia Yan is right, Jiang Chao is now his only son. He sat down at the desk and said in a depressed tone: "I'm doing this for Chao'er's good, last night's incident, he had a grudge with Prime Minister Li's son, if he doesn't avoid the limelight, I'm afraid Li Yang won't spare him easily." ”

Xia Yan was stunned: "Prime Minister Li, who is Li Yang?" How could Chao'er have a grudge against them. ”

Jiang Quan sighed and told Xia Yan the ins and outs of the matter. There is one more thing he didn't tell Xia Yan, Li Dong is the person next to the Eighth Prince, and now he wants to please the Eighth Prince, but he provoked Li Dong in vain, if Li Dong gets in the way, the big tree of the Eighth Prince will not tolerate him in the future. Moreover, Li Dong has a lot of power in the DPRK, which is not a good thing.

Xia Yan listened to Jiang Quan's words, but he groaned: "Master, you say this, do you want to have a bad relationship with the Li family?" ”

"It's a great thing to climb up to the Li family and the Jiang family," Jiang Quan shook his head: "I wanted to find an opportunity to catch up with the line, but I didn't want to be like Chao'er now, but I had a grudge." ”

Xia Yan was silent for a while, and a thought came to her mind. She said: "Master, do you know, what is the most stable relationship?" ”

Jiang Quan looked at her. Xia Yan said: "What if you can marry the Li family? ”

"Li'er is too flamboyant, Dan'er is too young." Jiang Quan frowned: "Don't think nonsense. ”

Xia Yan shook his head: "Li'er and Dan'er are concubines after all, and their identities don't match, so they can't be wives." ”

"Could it be that you want to be Su'er?" Jiang Quan frowned: "Then what kind of place is the Li family, the matter of father and son and wife happens from time to time." Even if I wanted to curry favor with the Li family, I wouldn't send Su'er into such a fire pit. ”

"What are you talking about, sir?" Xia Yan walked a few steps to Jiang Quan's side, snuggled up to him, and gently pressed his shoulders with a pair of jade hands: "Su'er is also my flesh and blood, how can I miss her so much." I mean Ruan'er. She looked at Jiang Quan's stunned appearance, and continued: "Ruan Er has a calm temperament, although I am also worried, but doesn't the Li family still have a little son, that little son is very smart, if he falls in love with Ruan Er, and his identity is also matched, wouldn't he have a relationship." In this way, let's apologize again, presumably Li Dong will not be embarrassed again. ”

Hearing this, Jiang Quan suddenly realized: "I actually forgot Li An." What you said is right, then Li An's future premise is immeasurable, if Ruan Er marries him, Jiang Fu will also be able to help. However," he hesitated a little and said, "Such a good family affair, you don't even think about Su'er?" ”

"Ruan'er's life is hard," Xia Yan said gently: "Su'er has me to worry about her, but Ruan'er is a child without a mother." They are all the daughters of Jiang Fu, could it be that I will deliberately harm her? Besides, I still want to stay in Su'er for a few more years, and I don't have to worry about family affairs, so I can pick it slowly. ”

Jiang Quan looked at the smile on Xia Yan's face, his expression finally softened, and he hugged her in his arms: "I know that you are a general knowledge, and it is my blessing to marry you in this life." Don't worry, I will definitely find a good family for Su'er, and I will not wronged her in this life. ”

Xia Yan said yes with a smile, and the two talked for a while, Jiang Quan said: "So I will give a post to the Li family first, and let them come to the house to talk." ”

Xia Yan smiled: "Then don't bother the master, I'll go see Chao'er." She closed the door, and the smile on her face instantly faded. Walking through the corridor and into the courtyard, Cuiyu was taking care of Jiang Chao, and when she saw her coming in, she hurriedly got up and stepped aside.

Jiang Chao lay motionless on the bed, Xia Yan sat down beside him, pulled up the hands covered with white cloth and put them to his lips, and said softly: "Chao'er, don't worry, my mother will avenge you." ”

Linlang stood aside and asked, "Madam, do you really want to be a matchmaker for the eldest girl and Second Young Master Li?" ”

"How is it possible," Xia Yan smiled cruelly: "I want her, I can only be Li Yang's concubine in this life, don't even think about the name of my wife, I want her to be ruined, I can only become the plaything of the Li family's father and son, marry into the Li family, and suffer for a lifetime!" ”

Linlang couldn't help but shudder, only to hear Xia Yan laugh lightly: "Second Prince Li's wife? Dream! ”

The matter of Baihualou in Beijing seems to have spread all over the streets and alleys overnight. In the past few days, the Jiang family has become a hot topic of conversation in Beijing, but in the end it is all a joke.

In the palace of King Jinying, the young man stood by the window in an inky rain flower brocade crane, and his posture was as tall as jade, a snow-white pigeon flew from the window and landed in his palm, and he took the note tied with red thread from the pigeon's leg. The pigeon's red bean-like eyes looked at him, and he stretched out his fingertips to caress the snow pigeon's head, and the snow pigeon chirped happily and flapped its wings and flew into the blue sky.

Xiao Shao unfolded the note and looked at it, frowned slightly, knocked on the table, and two black-clothed people suddenly appeared in the room.

"Master," one of them was the first to speak: "It has been found out, the subordinate scholar who followed the Guozijian, the letter was from the Jiang Quan Mansion in the capital, and the messenger was the maid next to the eldest lady of the Jiang family." But no connection between the two has been found. ”

"Zhilu Dao, go down." Xiao Shao said lightly.

The silence in the room returned to silence, Ye Feng stood behind Xiao Shao, and thought for a while: "The previous rumors were also spread by this Miss Jiang, master, the identity of this Miss Jiang is really suspicious." ”

"She's not a mole." Xiao Shao said. When he found out that it was Jiang Ruan, he was also very surprised. The examination questions of the Emperor's Palace Examination are generally only the people around the emperor. Jiang Ruan is just a deep girl, and it is impossible to be a traitor in the palace anyway. But there are a lot of things about her that don't make sense. For example, in Shen Shilang's mansion before, she even knew the most secret secret way. He has 300,000 Jinyi guards under him, and there has never been any information that he can't collect, but he can't find anything suspicious about this eldest lady of the Jiang family who killed him in the air, as if she should have known those secrets.

He also heard about the incident of Baihualou in Beijing last night, and the frequent accidents in the Jiang Mansion have been in place recently, and it seems that they all started when the eldest lady of the Jiang family returned to the house.

It turns out that Jin Yiwei found the little guy who followed Jiang Chao in Baihualou last night, and also admitted that he took someone's money and deliberately lured Jiang Chao to go. The spearhead of the last is directed at Jiang Ruan.

He couldn't help frowning: "There is something unreasonable about this matter. Continue to check to see what she has to do with the eighth child. "If it's a pawn of Xuanli, it's a different matter.

Ye Feng thought for a while: "What about the second miss of Jiang Mansion, she came again a few days ago, and Steward Lin blasted her out." ”

"Don't bother." Xiao Shao said lightly.

Ye Feng shrugged and stopped talking.

But Li Dong, who was at home, also shook his head when he received Jiang Quan's post: "Strange, what does Jiang Quan mean by this?" I don't have any friendship on weekdays.,Suddenly post something bad.。 ”

Li Dongsheng's big belly was pooping, and Mei Ji next to him fed him grapes while saying, "Maybe I want to cling to the master." ”

Li Yangse's squinting eyes were swirling on Li Dong's newly entered Mei Ji, and when he heard this, he said: "That's not possible, it was this Jiang Chao who made me lose face yesterday." I'm going to have to find a chance to clean him up. ”

"Okay," Li Dong said, "Your brother will return to Beijing in a few days, don't make trouble for him." What kind of person is Jiang Chao, it is worth worrying about him. ”

Li Yang wanted to say something, but Mei Ji smiled when she heard it: "I don't know who Jiang Chao is, but I heard about the two daughters of the Jiang family before the slave entered the mansion, but they are all the best in the world." ”

When Li Yang heard this, his eyes lit up: "What you said is true?" ”

"Naturally, it's true, the slave doesn't dare to deceive the young master." Na Mei Ji said with a smile: "The eldest lady of the Jiang family is as charming as a demon, and the second miss of the Jiang family is as beautiful as an immortal, and they are all talented, this is a fact that everyone in Beijing knows the truth." The eldest young master is disdainful of Miss Gaomen on weekdays, and he doesn't know what to do. ”

"I didn't expect Jiang Chao to have such two younger sisters, I want to see it." A hint of discoloration flashed in Li Yang's eyes: "Dad, when is Jiang Quan's post?" ”

"It's tomorrow." Li Dong looked at his son's eyes and knew it: "What, you also want to go to Jiang's house?" ”

"Naturally, I want to see this kind of beauty. Let's see if the people in Beijing are lying. Li Dong smiled a little obscenely: "Jiang Chao made me miss the peony, if the two younger sisters are beautiful enough, I won't care about him." ”

"You give me a bright spot," Li Dong said: "Miss Jiang's identity is there, and it is not something that can be played with at will." I see that you are not young, when will you marry a wife, just right, tomorrow you go to Jiang's mansion, really look at it, you can marry home. ”

"I don't want to marry a wife yet", Jiang Chao's face fell, he thought about it, and asked Na Meiji again: "What is the temperament of the two sisters of Jiang Mansion?" ”

"Miss Jiang has just returned to Beijing, and she is not familiar with it, but I heard that she is also very personable, and she looks gentle and graceful." Na Meiji smiled: "Second Miss Jiang is innocent and ignorant of the world, but everyone in Beijing knows it. ”

"All temperaments are good." Jiang Chao licked his lips: "If you really want to marry a wife, it is not as good as the blessing of Qi people, it is also a beautiful thing." ”
