Chapter 14 Covering the sky with one hand

When he woke up again, Liang Jian was lying on a bed, and his eyes were still blurry, only to hear a few birds chirping freely and jumping happily. The noon sun swept through the window unscrupulously, piercing the veil to cover her eyes. It took a long time for her to come to her senses and look at the scenery around her.

The room is very tidy, with tables, chairs, tea cups, screens, and bath barrels. The mahogany is exquisitely carved, and the dark incense floats in the incense burner, and the green smoke curls. Everything was so peaceful and tranquil that it seemed to be in an inn.

Looking at this display, it is well organized, and there is a feeling of low luxury.

Well, this room must be expensive! At first glance, there was a sense of nobility that she couldn't afford to live in, she felt that she would be crushed to death by this kind of extravagant place if she stayed for a few more moments, and she couldn't be skinned for one night!? When will she live this kind of drunken life again?

She, no, deserves !!

Liang Jian struggled to get up and wanted to go out, all he was thinking about was how to bargain with the shopkeeper and how to keep a little more silver.

At this moment, someone pushed the door in, and she froze in surprise. Could it be that the shopkeeper came to collect the money?!

"You're sick, what are you messing around?!" Yan Shi said a little anxiously, he put the tray in his hand on the table, and then walked over quickly, "It took me most of the day to straighten out your muscles, and you are moving around." ”

"Ah, thank you!" Seeing him hurrying over, she was speechless for a moment and stammered, "I...... I, I was wrong, I'm now... Just go back to bed. Don't get excited, don't get excited. ”

"Hmph," he turned back and brought the steaming Yangchun noodles on the table, which were very delicious. "Make an extra bowl in the kitchen, you hurry up and eat."

Hard mouth and soft heart! Small, how can the kitchen of such a high-end inn make Yangchun noodles, and he is not cooking?!

Liang Jian didn't say anything about it, just held back a smile and muttered, "Thank you,...... Little cook. I have to say, this craft is really good! This is simply the best Yangchun noodles I have ever tasted! ”

"Cut, just a bowl of noodles, look at your worthless appearance." Although he said this, the whole person was triumphant, and his tone was very pleasant. It's a good mood to watch.

"Then why don't we hurry up?" Liang Jian said while pulling the noodles, her mouth was bulging, and it looked very unsightly, but she thought it was better to finish eating it and withdraw.

This kind of high-end room is charged by the hour, and it costs a lot of taels of silver at a moment. She can't afford it!

"Sit and eat noodles with peace of mind!" Yan Shi pressed her back again, looking at her like a miser who was afraid of money, it was quite funny, "Don't worry, the money has already been paid, don't worry about this." ”

"Huh?" Where did this weak scholar get the money? I guess it's not enough to pile up all the money I earned before, right?! Where the hell did this guy get all this money? It won't be ......

Watching her cheeks propped up by noodles, like a hamster, is even funnier.

"What do you think?! Didn't Beichen Min reward you with a silver cup before? He poked his bulging cheeks and couldn't help but laugh. How could it be so cute, seeing that she was still a little anxious, she said softly, "It's really worth taking things, it's enough for us to live here for a month!" ”

??? Is it worth so much?! In the novel, it seems to be said that Beichen Min is extravagant and extravagant, but I didn't expect that a cup is so valuable!

"Hahahahaha" Yan Shi couldn't straighten up with a smile, this shocked look was also so funny, especially the bulging cheeks with this expression, it wasn't too cute. Seeing him laughing back and forth, she was a little confused.

??? Inexplicably, I don't know why. Liang Jian simply ignored him, since she had paid, she ate noodles with peace of mind.

"By the way, where are we?" She suddenly remembered that Beichen Min seemed to be chasing and killing Beichen Yuan, that is, the two men who posed a threat to her were not available! What a surprise!

"Yuecheng, there are more opportunities here, and there are more ways to make money!" He shook his fan as he spoke, it was an interesting place.

"That's right." Liang Jian thought about it, the southern capital in Yuecheng is far away, even if it is to ride a fast horse, it will take several days, so she has been asleep for several days?! Didn't you say that you don't die or get hurt? Why are you in a coma for so many days?

Saying that, she put down the Yangchun noodles that she ate almost the same, meditating on luck, although she didn't know much about these things in martial arts, but she felt that her body was very smooth, her body was lighter, and her hands and feet were more powerful.

Is this wave a blessing in disguise?

"Is this ......," she asked, confused.

"Your internal breath is a little disordered, so I'll take care of it for you." It's a bleak atmosphere to say, but the expression of praise on his face is about to overflow the screen.

Speaking of which, this breath is indeed a bit chaotic, and after conditioning, I found that she is also a genius in martial arts, although it is not worth mentioning in front of him, the first wizard in the world, who is eclectic, one in ten thousand, and unparalleled ~ in the world, but she also has some talent for martial arts, but it is a little difficult to get through the two veins of this Ren Du for a while, and he has to spend some time pondering.

"Thank you!" Liang Jian's eyes lit up, awesome, big brother, she suddenly felt as if she was hugging her thighs! She decided to look forward to him in the future, and he said whatever he wanted! "You are simply the light of the world, the savior of the world, my God!!"

"Eh, thank you for your great kindness." He waved his hand, not taking a cloud with him, and gradually lost himself in the sound of pursuit.

She suddenly felt that the future was bright, and with her eldest brother covering, at least nothing would happen now. But soon she found out that when there was no male protagonist, Yan Shi was the biggest pitfall!

——————

The two of them have been nesting in that inn for the past two days, listening to music, drinking tea and watching plays, so uncomfortable.

It's just that this consumption level is a little too high, Liang Jian wanted to take the rest of the change several times, the shopkeeper was more shrewd than the fox, and he sent her away if he said that he didn't have it, but the result was naturally in vain. As a result, she had no choice but to enjoy the sinful pleasure brought by consumption while being depressed.

"Don't worry, I'll pay you back more in two days." Yan Shi saw that her depressed appearance was quite funny, so he wanted to tease her from time to time.

"Hehe, I thank you!" She doesn't eat this kind of flatbread, it's unreliable when she hears it, if he really has so much money, he won't be crammed into a room with her now, and she has to guess every day to see who is playing on the floor.

"You'll know when the time comes." He just smiled, then sipped his tea and watched the tall carriages drive by outside. He counted boredly, three from the Beichen family and four from the Huangfu family, and a few from the Song family. It's been a lot of fun lately, and it would be nice if it could be a little more lively.

"Wow, that's a lot of wagons!" Liang Jian couldn't help but exclaim as he looked at the long queue of carriages lined up outside. The main thing is that these carriages have unusual luxury, and several of them she recognizes belong to the Beichen family. It's similar to the previous one in Beichen Min, but the one in Beichen Min is more magnificent and refined.

"Not really!" A little second who came over to refill the tea and serve them fruit looked at the carriage downstairs with some surprise. It's not because these carriages are very luxurious, if it is luxurious, who can better than the carriages of Xie Mansion, it's just that these families don't often come here on weekdays, but today they seem to have made an appointment to come together, which is a bit unusual.

"What day is it?" Xiao Er muttered alone.

"It seems to be...... July 17? "She doesn't know why, this is not a big day, is it? There are no holidays and anniversaries.

"Exactly." As he spoke, Yan Shi took a sip of the tea that Xiao Er had brought over, and then stopped looking at the carriage and seemed to be in deep thought.

"Oh, yes, yes, yes! July 17, then it's fine. Xiao Er patted his head and suddenly became enlightened, he has been busy completing the tasks assigned above these days, and his feet are not touching the ground, and he has forgotten today's day.

"What's wrong with July 17?" She was still puzzled, and when she saw that everyone around her understood, she looked confused.

"Objective, you are not a local at first glance!" Xiao Er put down the teapot and looked around to make sure that the shopkeeper was not around now, so he leaned over and whispered, "Every year on July 17, the major families have to send their children to the Xie family to discuss matters. ”

"Deliberations?" She knew that the Xie family was very powerful, but she didn't expect that they were so powerful that they could ask for each family?

"Hey, it's a discussion, but in fact, it's just ......" Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and when he turned around, he saw Yan Shi's unhappy eyes, his expression was unwavering, but he actually wanted to eat people.

"Ah, this tea is cold, and the small one will go down to heat the two of you objectively." He picked up the teapot and slipped away.

"Eh, you." Leaving before the words are finished, isn't this appetizing?! But seeing the shopkeeper wandering around, she also shut up and pouted and drank tea. Half of them are gone, which is too torturous.

"The deliberations of the Xie family, to put it bluntly, are to let the people of each family report the situation of their own families to the top." Yan Yi nodded his fan and interjected with Liang Jian's head.

"Huh? How does it feel like a relationship between a shopkeeper and a buddy? She was a little surprised, this Xie family is really a big family?

"That's right, but it's more like the relationship between monarchs and ministers, no matter how powerful the major families are, they don't dare to disobey."

“!!! So powerful?! She also thought that the most powerful families in the whole book were the two families of Huangfu and Beichen, but she didn't expect that one Xie family could surpass all the families. It seems that there is still a gap between the plot of the novel and reality, but for some reason, the Xie family did not write much in the original book.

"What's amazing, it's just a chicken feather as an arrow, and I really think I'm a noble person." Yan Shi said disdainfully, looking at the carriage in the distance, he looked down on these shrunken and timid wretches.

"What do you mean?" She still heard it in a fog, what chicken feathers, whose chicken feathers are you holding? Who is behind the Xie family?

She had only seen the Xie family in the original novel, saying that it was the deputy leader of the martial arts alliance and assisting the alliance leader, and there were not many scenes, so she didn't care too much. It seems that this bad habit of reading novels at a glance and ten lines still has to be changed.

"You'll find out in two days." Then he was silent, and secretly glanced at the shopkeeper, who understood and retreated silently.

Liang Jian is still immersed in his own questions, and many things are complicated and uneasy. But it didn't take two days, she was pulled up by Yan Shi in the middle of the night that night, she was sleepy-eyed, and she woke up in a daze as Yan Shi put on her night clothes.

This guy is going to do something again!

————————

"Big brother, I think, isn't this a good thing?" Liang Jian lay on the root of the wall with some weakness, observing the big family in front of him. There is a huge plaque on the front gate, the big characters depict the gold and write 'Zhongliang Xie Jia' looks like a royal gift, the door is carved dragon painting building, but also with gold powder paving, it looks very magnificent, even the door knocker at the door is made of gold, and the two lions on the left and right sides are all copper. Just one gate is luxurious to the point of breathtaking, even the Huangfu family and the Beichen family do not have this kind of battle.

This Xie family not only looks powerful, but the forces behind it are even more powerful! Now that the rivers and lakes line has made her anxious, if she provokes the court again, won't she have no way to live? She was desperate to find an excuse to evacuate, she didn't want to mess with the Xie family. In the afternoon, I heard a little about the Xie family, after all, it was the only family in the rivers and lakes that was protected by the imperial court, so it was naturally a household name and too much limelight, so she listened to it.

It is said that the Xie family was very valued because of its early years of meritorious service from the dragon, and later the imperial court also specially named Xie Haizhi, the head of the Xie family, as the deputy leader of the Wulin League. In fact, in terms of strength, the Beichen family in the southern capital and the Tongqiu Huangfu family, and even the slightly less famous Xianyou Song family are far better than the Xie family, but no one has any objections if they are afraid of the imperial court.

said that it was the deputy alliance leader, but in fact, the alliance leader was obsessed with martial arts, and he never asked about the things in the rivers and lakes, so he just regarded it as a false name, and the actual person in charge was the deputy alliance leader, the Xie family. Therefore, in the entire rivers and lakes, it is also the extent that one hand covers the sky.

Of course, the families seem to look down on this relationship in their hearts, but this Xie family fox is fake and powerful, there are a lot of, and they always bully people and rob each family of outstanding students, so many families have long held grudges. But everyone is kind on the surface and scolds their mothers behind their backs, there is no way, who makes someone behind the house.

"Are we really going to him?" Liang Jian cowered, getting rid of the cover of the imperial court, if he was really found, then he would probably be wanted all over the world.

It was late at night, the curfew had evicted everyone home, there was not a single pedestrian on the street, and only a few wild dogs were occasionally barking in the deep alleys. A cool breeze was particularly evident in the silent streets, blowing the flags and lanterns on the streets, and it also sent chills down people's spines.

Today is unfortunate, the dark clouds are closed and the moon is closed, the light is weak, and the so-called moon is dark and the wind is high and the night kills, tonight is a good time to carry out all kinds of evil tricks.

Liang Jian trembled slightly, it was scary enough in the middle of the night, and it was even more panicked if he wanted to make trouble.

"Cowardly as a mouse," he smiled and shook his head, still overestimating her. That's it, if you want her to enter the game, let's take it one step at a time. "Don't worry, you'll be fine with me." He slapped her on the back.

For some reason, I do feel a little more grounded, but I still resist it very much in my heart.

"Big brother, actually, I ......" she wrung her fingers and said intermittently, "I still feel ......"

Before the words fell, Yan Shi interrupted her, "We don't do anything, we just go in and have a look, take a look, don't worry." ”

Don't worry! The villain's look, that's a look, is that? Who's good guy goes to someone else's house in the middle of the night to hang out, she packs the ticket, this goods is what happened in the past!

"It's okay if you don't go, then I'll write around after I go in, 'Liang Jian is here to visit', and then draw a portrait or something." He smiled sinisterly, and he was a big villain.

"Let's go, big brother!" insidious, insidious, worthy of being a villain, this kind of indiscriminate trick can be imagined. Although no one will believe such a clumsy false accusation, if the Xie family can't catch anyone, she will be directly identified as the first suspect, and she has to be. The people at the bottom don't care if you are or not, they only care if they can catch someone.

"Didn't you just want to go?" He also teased shyly, "Why did you change your mind?" ”

"I'm the little brother of the eldest brother, and I will go wherever the eldest brother goes." She barely squeezed out a smile, and stabbed the villain crazily in her heart.

"Don't change your mind? Not afraid of being implicated? "He still wants to ask, is it cheap!

"Don't be afraid, let's go, big brother." Tall, does she have any choice?!
