Last time, it was said: Jiang Feng officially took over the Beijing Zhaoxian Pavilion, and Guo Mofan proposed a two-way strategy, which Jiang Feng adopted.

At the end of the next day, the guard Shang Ming entered the study and reported: "The owner of the Qiyu Pavilion, there is a son surnamed Liu outside the door who asks to see him." Jiang Feng put down the scroll in his hand and said in his heart: What should come will always come, I didn't expect him to be so fast, he must have taken action, could it be for the thing he said last time. He stopped thinking and said, "I invited Liu Gongzi to come to my study to meet." Shang Ming said respectfully: "Yes, hall master." Jiang Feng frowned and closed his eyes slightly.

Jiang Feng's study is called: "Bamboo Xianju", the golden plaque hangs in the middle of the door beam, there are countless books here, inclusive of everything, names and paintings, dazzling. On the left-hand side is a rectangular desk, on which pens, ink, paper and inkstones are neatly arranged. There are six high-quality brushes hanging on the pen stand, and a pair of "double tigers fighting stones" hangs on the wall behind the desk. On the right hand side is a semi-bowed door frame railing, which penetrates into the inner hall in the middle, and in front of the left is a high-quality mahogany bed, and a small square dining table on the upper right.

"Knock knock", a clear knock on the door came into Jiang Feng's ears, and Shang Ming outside the door said loudly: "Pavilion master, Liu Gongzi has arrived." Jiang Feng happened to be dressed and said, "Please come in Liu Gongzi." Shang Ming answered, pushed open the door, Liu Gongzi was still dressed in white and elegant, with a smile on his face, and bowed: "Brother Jiang, oh no, it should be the master of the Jiang Pavilion, congratulations." Jiang Feng invited Liu Gongzi to sit down and ordered: "Shang Ming, no one is allowed to approach without my order." Shang Ming was ordered to go out and close the door. Jiang Feng took out the cup and poured a cup of tea for Liu Gongzi, Liu Gongzi took it with thanks, took a sip, and sighed: "Ah, it turned out to be a high-grade Longjing, and it is really a good tea!" Jiang Feng looked embarrassed and said: "Brother Liu, this kind of good tea must have been tasted in your mansion a long time ago, and it is really funny." Liu Gongzi shook his head with a smile, and congratulated again: "Congratulations to Brother Jiang for becoming the owner of the Beijing Zhaoxian Pavilion, and I hope to help you in the future." Jiang Feng smiled bitterly: "Brother Liu, where is it? I am really ashamed to get this position by luck, and I still need Brother Liu to take care of it in the future." Liu Gongzi put down the cup and said: "With Brother Jiang's talent, it is well deserved, and it is an exaggeration!" Jiang Feng added another cup to Liu Gongzi and said: "Yesterday in the school, I couldn't say a word to Brother Liu, which makes me deeply regretful, I don't want Brother Liu to come to congratulate me today, I want to have a good talk with Brother Liu." Liu Gongzi smiled, took out a letter from his arms, and placed it on the table.

Liu Gongzi said: "Brother Jiang, with my original intention, I also want to catch up with Brother Jiang, but there are many official duties, in my opinion, I still open the skylight to say bright words, and inform Brother Jiang of the main purpose of my trip." Jiang Feng stared at the letter and asked suspiciously: "Brother Liu, what is this?" Liu Gongzi took another drink and said, "This is my father's edict, and I need Brother Jiang to open it personally." Jiang Feng was taken aback, and immediately came to his senses, he carefully picked it up and opened it, and looked at it carefully. Liu Gongzi kept paying attention to Jiang Feng's expression, and Jiang Feng became more and more frightened the more he looked at it. After a long time, Jiang Feng put down the letter, and Liu Gongzi asked, "I don't know what Brother Jiang wants?" Jiang Feng looked serious and said deliberately: "Forgive me for being stupid, I don't understand the meaning of the prime minister." After hearing this, Liu Gongzi laughed out loud and said, "Brother Jiang, you are a smart person, I believe that there are some words that I don't need to pick out." Jiang Feng pushed the letter back to Liu Gongzi's hand and said, "Isn't doing things for the prime minister just doing things for the emperor and the court?" Of course, Jiang Feng knew that Liu Shichen wanted to win him over, and the lobbying meaning of the letter was obvious, if it wasn't for the fact that he had a common enmity with him, maybe he would have been persuaded by them.

Jiang Feng deliberately thought for a while, and finally said categorically: "Brother Liu, please go back and tell the prime minister for me, I, Jiang Feng, will definitely do my best to do things for the emperor and the court, and I will do my best to complete all the errands assigned by the emperor." When Liu Gongzi heard him say this, his face changed slightly, and he asked rhetorically: "Brother Jiang really thought it through?" Jiang Feng looked at Liu Gongzi with resolute eyes and said, "Of course!" Liu Gongzi seemed to be a little disappointed, sighed, and said softly: "Brother Jiang, have you ever thought about Bingbing when you do this? She fell in love with you at first sight, you shouldn't know it, right? If you insist on going your own way like this, she will be sad, can you bear it?" Jiang Feng thought of Liu Bingbing's lovely and delicate face, and his expression was a little gloomy at his feelings. He naturally didn't want Liu Bingbing to see that he was against his father and brother, and in the end he had to fight to the death, and he knew that no matter which side won the final victory, it would carve an indelible scar on Liu Bingbing's pure heart, and it would definitely be her eternal pain. However, when he thought that dozens of people in the Jiang Mansion were brutally killed by Liu Shichen, a traitor, he could only harden his heart at the moment, put aside his personal feelings and make a final decision. The tangled look on Jiang Feng's face, Liu Gongzi saw it in his eyes, and said in his heart: I can see that you are still sincere to Bingbing, Jiang Feng, promise my father, you will have the opportunity to be with Bingbing in the future, otherwise, if you offend my father, you will definitely not end well, do you know?

Jiang Feng took a deep breath and said, "Brother Liu, say hello to the prime minister on my behalf, our Zhaoxian Pavilion only listens to the emperor's orders." Liu Gongzi clenched his fist in his left hand, at this moment, he was really not worthy of his sister, but after all, he was not a person without a city, so he instantly suppressed his inner emotions, and his face returned to calm. Liu Gongzi suddenly got up, walked to the door, and said, "Yes, since Brother Jiang has already made a decision, it is useless for me to say more." I also hope that Brother Jiang will take care of himself, and there will be a time to see each other in the future!" Jiang Feng paused, still opened the door to send him out, and said, "Brother Liu, don't worry, I think there will be that day." The eyes of the two met, and they each knew in their hearts that after today, they would no longer be friends, but enemies. The guard Shi Yi sent Liu Gongzi out of the Zhaoxian Pavilion, and Jiang Feng stood in the study in a daze...

At night, Jiang Feng lay on the soft pillow of the high bed, unable to sleep for a long time, his thoughts were mixed, and some fragmentary pictures appeared in front of him one after another. He recalled the conversation with Liu Gongzi during the day, today's words have pierced the last window paper, and the position has been blurred into clear, and he will have to confront Liu Shichen head-on in the future, and he needs to be more careful everywhere when there is an accident. But Liu Bingbing's figure has been lingering in front of his eyes, and he said in his heart: Liu Bingbing, why did you appear in my world? Why did I meet you, why did I have no heart to forget you, why when I think of you, when I think of our future situation, my heart will ache faintly. Do I really like you? No, I can't, absolutely not. You and I are not wrong, if you want to blame, you can only blame your father, he, I must kill him. That night, Jiang Feng tossed and turned, and failed to sleep well all night, he gradually realized that he had embarked on a road of no return that he did not want to take...
