Shang Jingchuan sat in a sedan chair, although the weather in early spring was still a little cold, he was still hot and sweating profusely in a thick official uniform.

But even so, he still refused to take off his official clothes, but sat upright, trying his best to show his majesty.

At the same time, his mind kept recalling what he had seen and heard when he went to court today.

Today, he was not only summoned by the emperor alone, but even gave him a seat for the first time, and asked in a kind tone about what he had seen and heard in Yunxiao County over the years.

All this made Shang Jingchuan grateful, and he was still excited in his heart.

Especially when he was finally leaving, the saint also reminded himself to take advantage of this time to take a good rest, and in a few days he would have to appoint himself with heavy responsibilities, and then he would not have time.

The so-called scholar is a confidant who dies, and he has read poetry and books for most of his life, and Shang Jingchuan is waiting for this opportunity.

At this moment, the attendant outside the sedan car reminded: "Lord Shang, I'm about to get home." ”

"Hmm!"

Shang Jingchuan snorted very majestically.

But then the words of the attendant outside made him break his defense a little.

"Look at the ...... of the round-trip car."

Shang Jingchuan couldn't cry or laugh, "I am the guard of a county, the official of the imperial court, can I still send you such a little money?" I'll settle it for you when I get back. ”

"Lord Shang is angry, the small one doesn't mean that, it's really that these sedan chair men under him have to eat, and I am also forced to be helpless!"

"Okay, okay, no need to explain." Shang Jingchuan interrupted the attendant's words with some annoyance.

"Yes!"

This follower bowed and retreated, but in fact, he was a little unimpressed.

Because of people like Shang Jingchuan, he has seen a lot in the past two years.

He was an official in a foreign county for a few years, but because the situation collapsed, he had to return to Beijing to report on his work, and then pinned his hopes on the Dayan court, thinking about finding an official and a half-job, but he didn't want to wait for several years, and there was no news at all.

After all, there is nothing else in Yandu City now, but there are many officials.

Officials large and small are staring at these limited positions, and the competition can be described as extremely fierce.

You don't have a way to go and a lot of money, so you just wait in the back.

This follower didn't think so, but on the surface he didn't show it at all.

The eight-carried sedan car quickly and briskly turned a long street, and then entered the Guangde Fang.

When he came to the front and back of the door, the sedan chair landed steadily, and the attendant stepped forward to open the sedan curtain, and then Shang Jingchuan bent down and walked out of it.

"Haha, you're ......."

He was about to tell his daughter what happened in court today, but then he was dumbfounded.

Because most of the courtyard walls of his own small courtyard have collapsed, through the gap, you can see that the courtyard is even more in a mess, and the bluestone slabs on the ground are shattered.

Shang Jingchuan looked at this scene with a confused expression.

What's going on?

Is there a war?

Will there be anything going on with Luoluo?

Thinking of this, Shang Jingchuan couldn't care about it, and ran towards the courtyard with a step.

The attendant also saw the tragic situation of Shang Jingchuan's family, so he followed closely behind, for fear that this "court official" would run away again.

After entering the courtyard, Shang Jingchuan was relieved to see his daughter and Zui'er standing under the eaves of the porch safely.

Looking at Zhao Ya again, he was standing at the foot of the steps and chatting with the two of them.

Although Shang Jingchuan didn't recognize Wang Tiancheng and Xu Nianran, he could guess that they should be martial arts masters by looking at their dress, appearance and temperament.

"Little Cliff, this ...... What's going on? Shang Jingchuan asked.

Zhao Ya was also a little embarrassed.

After all, it was all because of himself that he made the merchant look like this, so he roughly explained it and finally said.

"Uncle Shang, don't worry, I will repair the lost things as they are."

But Shang Jingchuan didn't care about these at all, he was thinking about the person Zhao Ya mentioned.

Yanxi photo!

Although he is not a martial artist, Shang Jingchuan also knows this name.

Especially in the past two days, the entire Dayan Imperial Court has been a sensation because of this name.

Today, when he met with the Holy Lord, the Holy Lord mentioned this Heavenly Lady of the Dayan Imperial Family several times.

Unexpectedly, she actually ran to her house to fight with Zhao Ya.

The key is also a mediocre one.

How could this not make Shang Jingchuan stunned.

At this moment, Wang Tiancheng and Xu Nianran got up to say goodbye.

They still have to go back to the Sword Villa, after all, there are still a lot of things to deal with.

Zhao Ya didn't keep them, but just sent them out of the courtyard.

Wang Tiancheng smiled and arched his hand, "Okay, Brother Zhao doesn't have to send it anymore, let's go back and clean it up as soon as possible." ”

"Yes, the beauty has been looking forward to you, after all, for the sake of the red face, dare to take Yan Xizhao's sword, can't this red face be moved?" Xu Nianran also smiled.

Zhao Ya knew that he was talking about Shang Luoluo, but he didn't explain too much, just smiled and bowed his hand.

"Then it's not far away."

"Come to the Golden Sword Courtyard when you have time, I will welcome you at any time!" Wang Tiancheng said.

"It's the same with Wunian Academy!" Xu Nianran also expressed his attitude.

Zhao Ya nodded, "I will definitely bother!" ”

"Farewell!"

The two of them disappeared between the eaves and roof tiles of Yandu City in a few leaps.

After Zhao Yamu saw them off, he turned around and returned to the courtyard.

At this time, Shang Jingchuan looked at Zhao Ya with an incredulous gaze, "Those two people just now are from the Golden Sword Academy and the Wunian Academy?" ”

"Yes!"

Shang Jingchuan wanted to speak and stopped, and finally sighed.

"I'll go find someone to repair the courtyard wall first."

"Hey, wait a minute, Lord Shang, we ...... the money for our car."

The attendant had been following behind Shang Jingchuan, and when he saw that he was leaving, he hurriedly said.

Shang Jingchuan was a little embarrassed.

He was wearing an official uniform, and he didn't have any money on him.

Fortunately, at this time, Zhao Ya handed over a silver ticket.

"Is that enough?"

When the attendant saw the denomination of the silver ticket, he immediately smiled.

"Enough, enough, just enough."

"Take the money and go."

"Yes, yes, you are busy, Lord Shang will say goodbye, and then you will use the sedan chair, call me at any time."

This followed Ban in a hurry.

Shang Jingchuan said with some distress: "Why did you give him so much money?" From here to the gate of the imperial city, the sedan chair back and forth is at most twenty taels of silver, but you gave him thirty taels. ”

"No way, that's already the smallest denomination."

Zhao Ya didn't say nonsense at this point.

After this period of accumulation, especially the several searches of corpses, although I didn't get much cultivation resources, I gained a lot of gold and silver.

With the golden ticket alone, Zhao Ya has at least forty or fifty thousand taels at the moment, not to mention the silver ticket.

This money is not much, it is obviously not enough in the eyes of those families in Yandu City, but in the eyes of ordinary people, it is an unimaginable huge amount of money.

Zhao Ya then gave Shang Jingchuan another 1,000 taels of silver, and asked him to find someone to repair the courtyard walls and floor tiles as soon as possible.

The money will definitely not be used up, and the rest can just subsidize the daily needs of the merchants.

After all, Zhao Ya knew very well that after returning to Beijing, Shang Jingchuan or Shang Luoluo actually didn't have much savings in their hands.

Shang Jingchuan took off his official uniform, changed his clothes, and then went out to find a mason.

Zhao Ya and the others returned to the house.

At this time, the drunken child was excited, and he was even happier than he had won the battle.

"Wow, Brother Xiaoya, you are so powerful, you actually broke that woman's sword moves with one sword, can you teach me?"

"Okay, but you have to train the white crane palm first."

"Uh...... Actually, I don't want to learn so much, if you're hungry or not, I'll go cook something! ”

After saying that, the drunk child fled in the wilderness.

There were only two people left in the house, Zhao Ya and Shang Luoluo.

Shang Luoluo had been looking at Zhao Ya with a lustful gaze, even after he was left in the house.

Zhao Ya was a little unnatural.

"Why do you always think of me like that?"

"It's nothing, I just want to see it." Shang Luoluo smiled.

"Then you can watch it if you want to!" Zhao Ya was also bareheaded, leaned back in the chair, and then pulled out the meteorite knife and looked at it carefully.

It's his habit.

After each battle, he would carefully check his weapon to prevent him from being secretly injured but not knowing, and then there would be a problem the next time he used it.

This is a matter of one's own life, and there is no room for sloppiness.

Just as he was watching, a fragrant wind hit, and then he saw Shang Luo falling to his side, and then leaned down and helped himself check it.

The distance between the two can be said to be close to their faces, and Zhao Ya can even see Shang Luoluo's eyelashes clearly.

"Can I get this knife?" Shang Luoluo suddenly turned his head and asked.

"Uh...... Okay, but you have to be safe, it's very sharp. ”

Zhao Ya let go of his hand and handed the knife to Shang Luoluo.

Shang Luoluo stretched out his hand to take it, although he was prepared, his arm sank and almost fell to the ground.

"It's so heavy!"

Shang Luoluo lifted it up with difficulty, and tried to swing it twice, but found that his strength was not enough, and he couldn't help but sigh.

Zhao Ya smiled, "Yes, it's really ......." ”

Before the words fell, Shang Luoluo suddenly put down the knife and kissed him on the cheek.

Although it is only a touch, the warm touch is still very obvious.

Zhao Ya stiffened, and then saw Shang Luoluo attached to Zhao Ya's ear, and whispered, "Thank you." ”

"Uh...... Actually, you don't have to be so polite, after all, I and that Yan Xizhao will have a battle sooner or later, and it's better to fight early than late, after all, she has just broken through now, and her strength has not yet been completely stabilized, which just gives me an opportunity to take advantage of. ”

Zhao Ya smiled, but his face was slightly red.

Shang Luoluo looked at it with a smile, and then suddenly said, "Strange, shouldn't it be me blushing?" You're acting like I'm the one with bad intentions. ”

Zhao Ya: "......"

"Hehe, I'm going to help Drunken Er cook, you can rest!"

After speaking, Shang Luoluo turned around and left.

Zhao Ya sat on the chair and touched his face, feeling a little puzzled.

Yourself this is ...... Molesque?

But he didn't know that when he ran out of the living room, Shang Luoluo's face was already red to the root of his ears.

Don't look at her usual big grin, in fact, she is very conservative in her heart, before she met Zhao Ya, she had never been alone with other men, let alone kissed.

The key is to take the initiative yourself.

This naturally made Shang Luo feel embarrassed.

And just when the merchant's affair came to an end, Yan Xizhao's confrontation with Zhao Ya had not yet spread.

In Changping Fang, in Yuzhu Hutong, Rao Mingyue bought the required medicinal materials according to Mo Xu's instructions.

"Mr. Mo, the medicinal materials are basically all bought." Rao Mingyue said excitedly.

"Thank you for your hard work, did you follow what I said, stay away from Changping Fang as much as possible and go to other Fang markets to buy it?" Mo Xu said.

At this time, his face was gray and his eyes were dull, and he had obviously hurt his fundamental vitality.

"Yes, I bought it according to your orders, and every pharmacy didn't dare to buy it all, this one bought a little, that one bought a little, and so scattered to buy." Rao Mingyue said.

"Okay, although this is a bit troublesome, it is safer and good for you, and then you can boil these herbs according to the method I said."

"Understood." Rao Mingyue nodded vigorously.

When Mo Xu was out of breath and instructed the precautions for boiling the medicine, Rao Mingyue hurriedly asked him to lie down and rest, while he took the medicine jar to the secret place behind the house and began to boil the medicine.

At this time, Mo Xu lived in an idle firewood house in the backyard of the small house, and no one usually came here, so it was relatively safe.

Despite this, Mo Xu's heart was still very unsteady.

Although he didn't know why the Four Seas Gang suddenly died down, he knew that since he had set his sights on him, the Four Seas Gang would never give up.

So he desperately hoped that he could recover somewhat, at least first regain his mobility, so that he could leave here without having to worry about this Rao Mingyue.
