Nangong Huangyun closed the door and helped Liu Jingxuan back to the chair: "My lord." Do you know who this Zhuge girl is?"

Liu Jingxuan thought for a while: "I remember that she seems to have reported her home, Zhuge Qinglin." ”

Nangong Xuanyun nodded: "My lord, do you know whose daughter she is?"

Liu Jingxuan seemed to feel something: "Whose daughter is she?"

Nangong Huangyun smiled mysteriously: "She is Zhuge Qinglin, the second lady of Zhuge Qinglin, who is chasing the clouds in the Falling Bird Forest." I mentioned it to you. ”

A trace of surprise flashed on Liu Jingxuan's face, and then he frowned: "She is not in the capital, what is she doing in Yangzhou for the New Year?"

Nangong Xuanyun shook his head: "It's not clear about the humble position. ”

Xiao Rang twisted his beard and said lightly: "The old man may be able to guess eight or nine." ”

Nangong Xuanyun turned his head to look at Xiao Rang, with a look of disbelief: "Mr. Xiao, although you are full of poetry and books, you are full of knowledge. But after all, you are not a great immortal who plays the board and calculates, and you can pinch and calculate. I don't believe it. ”

Liu Jingxuan also looked at Xiao Rang and said with a smile: "Yes, Mr. Xiao really can know why this Zhuge girl came to Yangzhou?"

Xiao Rang raised his head slightly: "If the old man guesses correctly, this Zhuge girl left the capital and came to Yangzhou in order to escape from marriage." ”

Liu Jingxuan and Nangong Huangyun glanced at each other, and then both stared at Xiao Rang without saying a word.

Xiao Rang glanced at the two of them and continued: "Zhuge Chaiyun brought his two daughters to the capital, not to make a name for himself, but to choose a son-in-law for his two daughters. If Lao Yu's guess is right, he wants to marry his two daughters into Beizi Baylor's mansion, and be a side Fujin, Shu Fujin or something. In this way, the lintel of his Zhuge family can be enlarged. Maybe there is really a noble son who takes a fancy to this second Miss Zhuge , but this second miss is not happy. Therefore, he left the capital and came all the way to Yangzhou. Saying that he came here to find relatives is a deception. ”

Nangong Xuanyun shook his head and retorted: "At the beginning of the Eighth Master's Mansion, I also saw the two young ladies of the Zhuge family, both of whom can be called the appearance of the country and the city. And I heard that this second lady has always been knowledgeable, filial and obedient. Since Zhuge Chaiyun intentionally wants Zhuge Qinglin to marry into the palace, presumably Zhuge Qinglin should not refuse. Maybe he came here to Yangzhou to avoid disaster, but it is not known. ”

Xiao Rang smiled slightly: "It's really true to avoid trouble. But it's still to escape marriage. ”

Nangong Xuanyun was a little unconvinced: "Mr. Xiao, are you very sure of this?"

Xiao Rang stroked his beard and nodded: "I dare to make a bet with Nangong Catcher." ”

Nangong Huangyun smiled slyly: "I don't know what Mr. Xiao wants to bet on?"

The corners of Xiao Rang's mouth hooked slightly: "Of course it's gambling money." ”

Nangong Huangyun nodded: "Then how much does Mr. Xiao have to bet?"

Xiao Rang thought for a moment and stretched out a finger.

Nangong Huangyun couldn't help laughing: "I thought Mr. was going to gamble a lot, it turned out to be just a tael of silver!"

Xiao Rang shook his head.

Nangong Xuanyun couldn't help but be stunned: "One hundred taels of silver?"

Xiao Rang narrowed his eyes, still shaking his head.

Nangong Huangyun's face changed greatly: "One thousand taels of silver?"

Xiao Rang slowly spoke: "Ten thousand taels of silver!"

"You're crazy, Mr. Xiao!" Nangong Huangyun couldn't help but be angry.

Liu Jingxuan's face was slightly cold, and he said unhappily: "Nangong catcher, how can you speak?"

Xiao Rang twisted his beard and smiled faintly: "The old man has followed the adults for many years, and he is really poor. I heard that your eldest brother, Nangong Weiman, is the richest man in the capital. What's the point of taking your tens of thousands of taels of silver?"

Nangong Xuanyun softened his tone: "Mr. Xiao, my eldest brother may indeed be able to get tens of thousands of taels of silver." But I can't take it out below. The gamble was over. ”

Liu Jingxuan lifted his sleeves and asked softly: "Nangong Putou, you once said in front of this official that this Zhuge girl has outstanding martial arts and Feixue swordsmanship. But this official looks like a weak and delicate girl today, and your words are exaggerated, right?"

Nangong Xuanyun shook his head: "My lord, don't underestimate this Zhuge girl. Chen Liang was stabbed just now, didn't the adults see it?"

Liu Jingxuan stroked the corner of his forehead: "Yes! If you don't say it, I really have to forget it." ”

Nangong Xuanyun said: "This woman's move is full of snow, and she has no power to kill Shangguan Yunying. shocked all the martial arts people at the Laba banquet. If it weren't for Nangong Weiman's incorruptible body of King Kong, I am afraid that the first name would fall on Zhuge Qinglin's head. In my opinion, that sword demon Murong Changqing may not be able to take this snowy move. ”

Liu Jingxuan twisted his short beard and muttered for a long time: "As you said." This Zhuge Qinglin lives in this prefect's yamen, isn't it troublesome. The government was a little careless and clashed with it. Wouldn't it be dangerous if you weren't around?"

Nangong Xuanyun was a little inexplicable when he heard this: "My lord, what do you mean by this? That Zhuge girl has superb martial arts skills, and she is knowledgeable, and she is staying in this prefect's yamen, which can be said to be impregnable. ”

Liu Jingxuan couldn't help but have a wry smile on his face: "Nangong Catcher, is this what you want to talk about?"

Nangong Xuanyun was a little puzzled and said, "Aren't you surprised, unhappy?"

Liu Jingxuan sighed: "If it is true as Mr. Xiao said, this Zhuge Qinglin escaped marriage and came to Yangzhou. So the wealthy nobleman who wants to marry Zhuge Qinglin is afraid that he will soon know her whereabouts. If I knew that she lived in my house, how long would I be able to keep the top of the four grades? With that, Liu Jingxuan put his hands behind his back and walked out of the door slowly.

Nangong Huangyun looked at Liu Jingxuan's back, stunned and speechless for a long time.

Xiao Rang shook his head, turned around and walked out.

In Beijing, the crown prince and Sibeile Yinzhen lost face in front of Emperor Kangxi. Prince Yinren returned to Yuqing Palace and was furious. The celadon teacup was smashed by him, and the palace maids and little eunuchs in the palace were so frightened that no one dared to come forward. The vent was not too far away, and Yinren's head cleared up a little. He shouted at the door, "Come in with a vibrancy." ”

After a while, a little eunuch ran in and asked tremblingly, "What does the prince command?"

Yinren suppressed his anger: "When I went to Sibeile Mansion, I said that the prince had invited Sibeile to come to discuss the matter." ”

After about half an hour, Sibeile Yinzhen drove to the Forbidden City. Entering Yuqing Palace, the monarch and the ministers finished their courtesy.

The crown prince Yinren ordered someone to offer tea, and then blasted a group of eunuchs and palace maids out of the hall, turned his head and said to Yinzhen: "Fourth brother, who do you mean to instruct this Murong to fight against me and ruin the prince's affairs?"

Yin Zhen thought about it and said cautiously: "The younger brother hasn't found out yet, so he doesn't dare to say anything." ”
