Chapter 36 The Journey
In the evening, Yun Kuan immediately went to Su Chenyu and told him everything Jiang Luoan had done today.
He already knew about the things that Jiang Luoan secretly went to Luo's house to do. He also thought that Jiang Luoan didn't know what to do with those things, and would come to him for help. Who would have thought that she would be able to touch the underground store and let those things get rid of smoothly.
Yun Kuan had been following Jiang Luo'an not far behind, and had witnessed almost everything. After listening to his story, Su Chenyu couldn't help laughing. I didn't expect Jiang Luoan to be so clever when doing this kind of thing.
At the auction, he naturally didn't worry about Jiang Luo'an going alone. Su Chenyu prepared for a while and went into the palace to meet his father.
In front of everyone, Su Chenyu said cordially: "Father, I heard that the auction hosted by Zhe Yuanshao is about to start, and Erchen hasn't been there for all these years because of health reasons, so it's better to let me go this time to see what kind of auction can make so many people praise." ”
Hearing that he was going, the emperor's first reaction was to refuse. But he soon realized that so many people were present. The request of the "beloved son" was difficult to refuse, and the emperor immediately agreed.
"It's also good to go outside, you can go if you want. Su Tingyu, you should follow him too. ”
Su Tingyu is the second prince of the dynasty and the emperor's confidant. He said that he asked Su Tingyu to accompany him, but in fact, he asked him to supervise Su Chenyu.
Su Chenyu was not annoyed that his father had planted someone by his side, so he agreed with a smile.
For generations, the Jiang family has occupied the position of the General's Mansion. It not only serves the imperial court, but also has close ties with various forces in the rivers and lakes, which can be described as a balance between the rivers and lakes and the cultivation realm.
At this auction, the Jiang family naturally received an invitation letter.
After Jiang Aotian, who was the head of the family, got it, he asked his daughter if she wanted to go with her.
Jiang Luoan agreed, but also proposed to bring a friend of his with him. There was no stipulation on the invitation for the number of people to go, and Jiang Aotian was happy to agree to his daughter's small request.
On the day of the auction, Jiang Luo'an got up early, first took Wen Zhao out of the inn to the General's Mansion, and then busily introduced Wen Zhao to Jiang Aotian on the way.
"Father, when I went to participate in the hunting in the Hongyuan Forest, I was almost attacked by the demon beast after I got separated from everyone, thanks to Brother Wen Zhao's presence at the time, he threw a sword and saved my life. Later, when he came back with me, he happened to encounter Jiang Zetian's martial arts performance. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have been confident I would have beaten them that day. ”
Jiang Aotian had seen Wen Zhao that day, but he didn't see him again after the chaos ended. Originally, he wanted to find an opportunity to thank Wen Zhao, but this time he heard that there was something in the Hongyuan Forest, and he was even more grateful to him.
"Brother Wen, thanks to your help at that time, I was able to protect my daughter's safety. You are kind to my Jiang family, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, just tell me, I Jiang Aotian will never shirk if I can help. ”
Wen Zhao only nodded when he heard this, "Then thank you to the Jiang family master." ”
This auction is dedicated to cultivators. Therefore, the location was arranged in one of the largest inns in the city, and the venue was surrounded by multiple layers of barriers. Ordinary people can't even see the venue, let alone enter the venue, and can only witness countless people entering and leaving the inn.
Jiang Luoan went in with Jiang Aotian and Wen Zhao. The person who received them happened to be the one who came to greet Jiang Luoan that day. The tall and thin guy didn't recognize her at first, and it wasn't until Jiang Luoan coughed lightly in imitation of the voice of the day that his eyes widened in surprise.
"Jiang ...... Miss Jiang? The guy stammered a little.
Jiang Luoan followed behind the two of them, stretched out a finger to his lips, and made a "shhhhhh The man immediately understood, and quietly nodded to her, indicating that he understood what she meant.
Many major events have happened in the Jiang family recently, the position of the head of the family changed hands almost overnight, and Jiang Yiyun, the most capable junior of the Jiang family, was also punished because of that incident and exiled with the former head of the family.
Therefore, when they heard that the Jiang family was also coming to this auction, everyone stretched their necks to see who was coming, and were ready to judge the division of the Jiang family's forces in the future.
What everyone didn't expect was that Jiang Aotian actually came with his daughter. Jiang Luo'an's reputation has never been very good, but now that she has become a quasi-princess, everyone doesn't dare to chew her tongue in person.
The young man beside Jiang Aotian looked good, he hadn't seen it before, and he didn't know what it was. However, the murderous aura on his body is too heavy for people to dare to talk about it.
As soon as the three members of the Jiang family came in, Su Chenyu and Su Tingyu arrived. Su Tingyu has always looked down on the Jiang family, especially after Jiang Luoan and Su Chenyu got engaged. On such occasions, he is not easy to show openly, but when a few people greet him, he is almost visible to the naked eye and carelessness does not bother to hide it at all.
Su Chenyu is not like him, he has always been committed to maintaining a good relationship with his future father-in-law. Seeing the three members of the Jiang family coming, he immediately greeted them warmly and greeted them. In this way, it seems that Su Tingyu is out of place.
Su Tingyu stood aside a little awkwardly, but it was not good to leave directly. He also has the task of monitoring Su Chenyu.
"How is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doing lately?" Jiang Aotian asked.
"I've been getting better lately, and I've been able to walk around a lot." As he spoke, Su Chenyu looked at Jiang Luo'an, "I still have to thank Miss Jiang's brilliant medical skills for allowing me to recover so well." ”
Jiang Luoan hurriedly said: "It's just a trivial matter, not enough to worry about." She obviously didn't do anything, but Su Chenyu kept mentioning it. Although she knew that Su Chenyu was doing it for her good, creating an illusion of love between the two in front of outsiders, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
Su Chenyu said again: "Today's auction is about to start, let's take a seat as soon as possible." I wonder if Miss Jiang would be willing to sit with me today? ”
"Nope." "No, you can't." Two different voices rang out at the same time, but both disagreed.
Su Tingyu said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, even if you are engaged to Miss Jiang, it is better to avoid it if men and women are not intimate." ”
Wen Zhao also said: "Jiang Luo'an is with us today, and I also ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to respect himself." ”
Jiang Luoan actually didn't want to go there, two people helped her refuse first, and she was happy to take over, "Since both of you said so, then I won't go." ”
Su Chenyu saw Jiang Luo'an's thoughts, and suddenly frowned tightly, covering his chest with his right hand.
"What's wrong with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Su Tingyu saw that he was uncomfortable, and immediately panicked.
