Chapter 14: Thoughts

After today's events, he has determined that he has developed an unusual affection for Wang Hibiscus. It is not gratitude for the grace of saving lives, it is not the politeness and courtesy of meeting in the water, it is not the sympathy and pity for its suffering. This kind of throbbing and heartbeat that he had never felt before would only appear when facing Wang Jin, which caught him off guard, and he couldn't maintain a calm and rational judgment and analysis. Look at this courtyard, isn't it evidence that he was defeated and retreated one after another in the face of Wang Jin!

But why? Why did he have a heart for such a girl?

Although he does not care about his status, reputation and wealth, he does not care about it completely, and he will not look down on others because of this. But he was born in the Jiang family, which was full of hairpins, grew up in the capital full of powerful people, and after taking charge of general affairs, he saw all the major sects and families on the rivers and lakes, and his vision was far wider than others. Speaking of women, although most of the women he has seen are daughters with noble status and raised in the boudoir, they are not the same as a thousand people. There are those who are scheming, and there are those who are simple and coquettish; There are lively and active, and there are quiet and elegant; If you talk about appearance, it is even more temperamental, and each has its own merits. Although Wang Jian is delicate and smart, it is not enough for Jiang Qingliu to fall in love with him for a skin. When he first got involved in the love network, he couldn't figure it out. After thinking about it, I felt that I might have been fascinated for a while because I had never gotten along with other women like this, and after a while, he might forget about it. Thinking like this, his mind gradually cleared up, and he decided not to think about anything related to Wang Hibiscus for this time. If it's really just a momentary emotion, then presumably this feeling will automatically disappear after a while, if it is engraved in his heart, he can't forget it, then he won't question and hesitate like this, even if she is just a country girl, he will try to hold her in the palm of his hand!

After making up his mind, Jiang Qingliu took a deep breath, expelled those mixed thoughts from his mind, and began to think about what he would do tomorrow. This time he came to Yangzhou City, he planned to establish his own ship dart, and there will be a tough battle with the Cao Gang in the future. Although he had been well arranged before he came, he should not be taken lightly now. His hand on the wooden table tapped on it again and again, lost in thought.

When Qin Ziming came back, it was already sunset, and he patted the door breathlessly, thinking that his trip today could be regarded as visiting half of Yangzhou City. The one who opened the door was a man in his thirties wearing a subordinate uniform, Qin Ziming was stunned for a moment, and the person Min Chong was looking for came so soon? As soon as the man who opened the door saw him, he smiled and said, "It's Brother Qin, please come in, and leave the rest to us, you go and take a sip of tea and rest." As he spoke, he welcomed him in, beckoned two more servants, led the carriage from the backyard, unloaded the goods, and a few mothers-in-law and maids who were guarding the side took the things and went to arrange them without mentioning it.

Jiang Qingliu was sitting at the stone table in the bamboo forest of the Xiangfei Concubine at the moment, and a pot of tea was brewed on the table. Min Chong replied to him on the side: "Fourth master, I have explored Jinxiu Hutong, and there are indeed a few hidden piles watching near the house. ”

"Well, I've expected that. Although they don't dare to do it again, they definitely want to grasp my whereabouts first. The dark guard brought by Skywalk, what is the current situation? ”

"It's already in place, and we'll be notified as soon as there's a situation."

"Yes. By the way, how did you bring these people over? Can anyone be noticed? Jiang Qingliu asked when he remembered this.

"I went to a rice store, bought several large vats of grain and flour, and put them in, and when I came out, I hid the servants in the buckets. No one should be aware of it. Min Chong's words were a little different.

"Oh?" Jiang Qingliu was very surprised, and seemed to understand, and said with a light smile: "It seems that you still remember the plan I made in the Heavenly Star Pavilion to get the golden cicada out of its shell back then. ”

Min Chong felt slightly embarrassed, the Tianxing Pavilion, which was subordinate to the Jiang family back then, saw that the Jiang family's control over him was weakening, and he actually had a backlash. And Jiang Qingliu, who had just taken over the affairs of the clan, almost died when he took over the Tianxing Pavilion. As the Min family who is temporarily in charge of the Tianxing Pavilion on behalf of the Jiang family, although Min Chong has been kept in the dark about this matter, and Jiang Qingliu has no suspicion of him, he can't help but feel guilty and embarrassed every time he mentions it. He could think of this idea, and it was also because Jiang Qingliu used a similar method at that time to escape from the surrounded Heavenly Star Pavilion headquarters. At that time, Jiang Qingliu was only fourteen years old, and later attacked the Tianxing Pavilion with thunderous means, and personally stabbed a few elders in the pavilion who rebelled, and the blood flowed like a river, even if it shocked everyone. After that, he drastically redeployed and appointed the members of the Heavenly Star Pavilion, completely mastered the control of the Heavenly Star Pavilion, and the means were so ruthless and decisive that he was a little frightened when he thought about it now. He secretly glanced at Jiang Qingliu, and when he saw that his expression was as usual, his heart was also relieved, and he replied: "It is indeed borrowed from the fourth master's strategy at that time. ”

Jiang Qingliu bowed slightly, and said: "You sent a message to Tianxing, and let him come to see me quietly at night." ”

Min Chong retreated. Qin Ziming, who was waiting on the side, immediately stepped up and said to Jiang Qingliu: "Childe, I'm back." Today, I only bought some necessary soft things, and I didn't have time to buy large pieces of furniture in the main house. ”

"Well, don't worry, those things will be placed by someone later. I've worked hard for you today, so let's go and rest. "Jiang Qingliu Road.

Qin Ziming said with a little embarrassment: "Where are you resting today, son?" Today, I see that the inverted rooms of this house are a little crowded, and just now a steward asked me how many people to live in the backyard? ”

"No way!" Jiang Qingliu subconsciously vetoed, frowned and said: "I will live in this west wing today, I see that the east wing is also complete, you will live there with Min Chong at night." Then he told the steward that to-morrow he must fill up all the things that were lacking in the house, and leave only two of them down, and the others will take them back. Qin Ziming heard the displeasure in his tone, and hurriedly wiped his cold sweat and retreated to make arrangements.

In the middle of the night, the Jiang family's new house, which had been busy for a long time, finally rested. When everything was silent, a black shadow silently jumped into the west wing where Jiang Qingliu lived.

“… Are the people from Tianxing, Yan's Boat Line and Yuanfu Dart here? Jiang Qingliu was dressed in a moon-white middle coat, sat cross-legged on the couch, and asked.

"The subordinates have received a message yesterday that the people of the two families will be able to arrive in Yangzhou Mansion tomorrow." The man in black, known as Skywalker, replied.

"Well, you must keep them safe. When they are settled, tell them that I will be in the cyclamen the next night. ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand!"

"What has happened to the Cao Gang recently?"

"According to the observation of subordinates, there is no abnormality. That Li Tai has been busy with the grain transfer ordered by the imperial court recently, and he can't take care of us for the time being. ”

"Well, you continue to monitor him closely, and report to me if you have any news, don't act without permission, go."

"Yes, my subordinates will take their leave." Tianxing clasped his fists and saluted, and respectfully retreated.

Jiang Qingliu closed his eyes gently, and the hand on his lap gradually clenched: if the establishment of the ticket number goes well, the Jiang family will no longer have to worry about money, and he will be worthy of his mother and the Jiang family. In the future, he will not let those people decide their own fate, what he wants is that the sea is wide and the fish jumps, and the sky is high and the birds can fly!
