Jia Jing smiled evilly and pointed to the prison lane at the end, "This is a great gift specially prepared for you by this prince! Don't miss it!"
Wu Kui glanced at Jia Jing suspiciously, and then walked quickly towards the last prison car. He saw his second son Wu Chang lying naked in the prison car. The old housekeeper was shocked and stepped forward to open the prison car and picked him up.
Wu Chang called.
Wu Kui looked at his son's face and the dripping blood on his lower body. He couldn't help but turned around and said to Jia Jing with an ugly expression, "Who! Who did this!"
Jia Jing shrugged and gloated, "The Duke of Jing has asked the wrong person. When I arrived, my son was already of this virtue!"
Wu Kui was furious when he heard this. He pointed at Jia Jing and wanted to accuse Jia Jing of not saving his son and letting his son become like this. However, before he could say anything, he remembered Jia Jing's temper. It was really unreasonable to say such words.
It's boring. They are your enemies. It would be nice to see your son sent back like this. Do you still want others to help with his treatment?
So Wu Kui said coldly, "What on earth happened!" Jia Jing said with a smile, "You should ask me yourself when you wake up, otherwise I say, you might think that I am sowing discord!"
With that said, Jia Jing greeted her people and left. Before leaving, she mockingly said to Wu Kui, "Don't forget to return the prison car to Mr. Yin Zhou of Jingzhao Mansion. It's not easy to borrow something from someone."
Wu Kui's face darkened, and Jia Jing laughed and led the people away. Wu Kui was left looking at Jia Jing leaving with a gloomy face, and punched the prison car hard. This little bastard is
on purpose!
But according to Jia Jing's words, they can't have an attack! Because it was Jia Jing who saved them, and the price he paid was just a little loss of life! For the enemy, this price is already very light.
.
So Wu Kui didn't say anything. The old housekeeper hugged his son and screamed for a while but there was no response. He could only look at him helplessly and said, "Master Guo! What should we do?"
The "good nephews" around Wu Kui were also crying for their father and mother. Wu Kui felt a headache when he saw them. He could only wave his hands and said, "Please ask the doctor! Take them down and treat their injuries.
Those who are not injured should put on their clothes, ask them to come to their respective homes to pick them up, and tell them to get out!"
After hearing this, the old housekeeper quickly went down to do some work. Wu Kui looked at the people crying for their fathers and mothers, snorted, shook his head and left...
At this time, in another palace in Shenjing City, Li Gou was participating in a poetry meeting held by King Wu Li Nuo. Li Nuo often held such activities, so the "idle" Li Gou naturally became like this
A frequent guest at banquets.
After listening to the article of Bai Yi, who is said to be the most talented person in the south of the Yangtze River from Yangzhou, everyone applauded and praised him. Bai Yi just smiled and thanked him and sat down. He took the wine glass on the table and drank it all in one gulp. As expected, a true celebrity has his own style.
!
The young prostitutes and ladies present at the meeting looked at it with stars in their eyes, and the ladies hiding behind the screen on the other side were naturally very excited.
Li Gou watched this scene with slightly narrowed eyes, but quietly picked up the wine glass and took a sip. This Bai Yi was the purpose of his participation in this poetry meeting this time.
Don't get me wrong, although Li Gou likes beauty, he definitely has no interest in men. What interests him is Bai Yi's background.
His debut time is not short. At least as far as Li Gou knows, Bai Yi has been a famous child prodigy in Jiangnan since he was a child. Now that he is getting older, he is even more popular as the number one talent in Jiangnan!
But that's all. What really moved Li Gou's heart even more was his other title, "The richest man in Jiangnan!"
Bai Yi was born in the Bai family, one of the eight major salt merchants in Yangzhou. In addition to selling salt, his business also includes all kinds of ways to make money, large and small, as long as you can think of it!
The Bai family is a giant in Yangzhou and even in Jiangnan! It is even said that the Bai family is now very closely connected with the Thirteenth Industry in Guangzhou!
Li Gou came here just to make friends with Bai Yi! If he could get the support of the Bai family, his plan could even be advanced several years!
It's just that such an outstanding person is probably very wary. Making friends rashly will only arouse vigilance and resentment. In addition, he has a special status, so he just goes up and says to make friends with him. I'm afraid that's Sima Zhao's intention. !
They won't pay attention to you at all! He's just a prince who failed in his struggle for power. He's still his father. In his generation, he's lost so much power. In the eyes of outsiders, he's just living on his last breath!
So it can't be so obvious that Li Gou is thinking about how to get close to Bai Yi and gain his friendship, and how to use him to get the support of the Yangzhou Bai family behind him!
At this time, Li Er had already smiled and walked up to talk to Bai Yi, "Brother Bai came all the way to participate in Xiao Wang's poetry meeting, and he was even willing to leave the calligraphy treasure as a reward. It really made Xiao Wang not know what to do." ah!"
Bai Yi smiled and raised his glass and said, "Your Majesty, you are too polite. I like this kind of cultural things. If I knew that Your Majesty was holding a poetry gathering, I wouldn't have invited him. I would have had the shamelessness to do it uninvited." A bad visitor!"
Li Rong laughed loudly when he heard this and said, "No matter when Ziqi comes, he will be my honored guest! How can he be a bad guest?"
Everyone laughed a few times to show their dignity. Li Gou couldn't help but take another sip of wine when he saw this. This was a test in itself. If Li Xin invited Bai Yi today and didn't know what Bai Yi was behind, it wasn't to win over Bai Yi. , I’m afraid even Bai Yi himself doesn’t believe it!
But Bai Yi accepted. Not only did he accept the invitation, but he also said that Li Yi could invite him at any time to the subsequent poetry gathering, or he would even come without inviting him!
What does this mean? It means that I have accepted Li Ni’s olive branch, and I am very eager to express that I also have the intention to stand on your side!
This made Li Gou a little strange. How could a family like the Bai family place a bet so easily? According to Li Gou's idea, the Bai family would at least have to test it out many times, or simply stay out of it and wait for the new emperor to ascend the throne before surrendering!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After all, who would complain about the lack of financial support? No one will have trouble with money, right? Even if the Bai family ends later, no one will find it strange!
But Bai Yi actually revealed his intention in this regard, which is a bit strange. Could it be that the Bai family wants to put eggs in multiple baskets?
This kind of approach is only suitable for very powerful families, but now such families almost do not exist. It is even said that there can only be one, and that is the Tian Family!
Emperor Yongxi would not allow someone to play with his sons half-heartedly like this! If the Bai family has this intention, they are really playing with fire!
But Li Gou felt that the Bai family, which could build such a big business, could not be so stupid! Could it be that they really have a crush on Li Di?
Li Gou was puzzled for a while, and he was also a little anxious because of this. After all, if the Bai family had voted for Li Nuo early, he would have no advantage. Even if he wielded a golden hoe, he would never be able to dig out Li Nuo's corner.
!
Li Rong smiled and said, "The articles written by Ziqi just now are indeed of extraordinary literary talent. He is the number one talent in Jiangnan. He is indeed a worthy scholar despite his great reputation!"
Bai Yi smiled modestly and said, "I dare not call him the most talented person in the south of the Yangtze River. There are so many talented people in the world. Not to mention the crucian carp crossing the river on the water, but also underwater, there are countless heroes. I just deceived the world and stole the name."
Junior, someone who does good things and calls him a genius is actually not worth mentioning! Your Majesty, please don’t mention it again, otherwise I will really lose my face!”
Li Rong laughed loudly when he heard this and said, "Zi Qi is so humble! Who can write the article I just wrote? It is true that the world is vast and there are countless heroes, but Zi Qi himself is one of them! Being too humble is just belittling one's self."
Got it!"
Bai Yi smiled and waved his hands and said, "If it were before, I would have pretended to claim it, but now I really have no shame in doing so! It's better not to mention this again, otherwise I'm afraid I'll make you laugh at me!"
Li Rong was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why doesn't Ziqi dare not do it now?" A good person on the side laughed and said, "I'm afraid our great talent is afraid of being beaten by a talented woman and will lose his armor!"
Bai Yi smiled wryly and waved his hands when he heard this. Li Yan looked at everyone suspiciously when he heard this. Those who had good intentions in the crowd told the story about Ren Suxuan, the daughter of Korean Duke Ren Jingli, challenging the world's talented people.
After hearing this, Li Rong was also very shocked and said, "There is such a strange woman in the world! Xiao Wang is destined to be just the same, which is really a pity!"
Bai Yi heard this and said quickly, "Your Majesty, you don't have to be like this. Your Majesty will be able to meet this strange woman very quickly!"
Li Yan blinked his eyes when he heard this and said, "Why did you say that?" Someone on the side immediately explained, "Back to the prince, it was the Korean Duke Ren Jingli who was transferred back to the capital. Compared with the younger ones, he also went to the capital together!"
The people on the side laughed and said, "That Miss Ren Suxuan must be such an elegant person! When the time comes, the prince will hold more poetry gatherings, so that we can also see the amazing talent of this strange woman!"
Li Rong laughed when he heard this and said, "How do you know that this girl Ren who was raised in a boudoir is a person who is good at such elegant things?" Everyone quickly challenged Ren Suxuan to the world's talented people, saying that only those who can argue with her and write poems can convince her.
She only marries those who take it orally! Otherwise, she would rather never marry!
When Li Yu heard this, he also burst into praise, praising it as an ancient and elegant thing. Then he banged his folding fan and said, "So, this girl is difficult to marry!"
When Bai Yi heard this, he also smiled and said, "That's true, but isn't that also the elegance of the matter? Perseverance can make a difference!"
Li Ruo smiled and waved his fan and said, "That's not necessarily the case! Xiao Wang thinks of one person who can definitely break the situation! And he will definitely be able to convince this young lady Ren!"
Others immediately said cheerfully, "I wonder who the prince is talking about? Tell us so that we can see him. Let's go together to see him!"
"How about those great Confucian gentlemen? Although Miss Ren can be convinced by this, I'm afraid those gentlemen wouldn't do such a thing......"
"Hahahaha! The gentlemen are willing, but the ladies behind the gentlemen are not willing either!"
"The ladies are willing, but the Korean gentleman will definitely not be willing!"
"That's right! This little lady is so annoying that she actually looks down on all the men in the world! Now let's find someone who can subdue her!"
"Tsk tsk, what will Miss Ren look like when the time comes? Just think about it and I will..."
One person suddenly realized, "It's not far away in the horizon, but it's right in front of you." Everyone looked at Bai Yi after hearing this, and Bai Yi smiled reservedly and said, "I am self-aware..."
Li Ruo interrupted and laughed, "No, no! What Xiao Wang said was Ninghou Jia Jing and Jia Huiyu!" Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then several people lowered their heads and murmured a few words, and then slapped their foreheads.
"Hey! How could we forget about him!"
"That's right! That's right! Ninghou Jia Jing will definitely be able to convince this young lady Ren!"
"Haha! In the past, I always thought that Ninghou's martial arts were outstanding and extraordinary, but I forgot that Ninghou is also a great talent who is famous all over the world! If Ninghou takes action, wouldn't that little lady be easily captured?"
"More than that? Not all women are attracted by Ning Hou's appearance, let alone a pretty sister..."
Li Ruo nodded and smiled triumphantly, but when he looked up, he saw that Bai Yi seemed a little unhappy. Li Ruo was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered. Just now Bai Yi mentioned that Ren Suxuan was obviously extremely excited!
Bai Yi also knew about the news that Ren Suxuan was coming to Beijing, and was very excited about it. He also encouraged himself to invite Mrs. Ren to the poetry meeting...
This white chess piece is just for Ren Suxuan!
The more Li Rong thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case! Otherwise, why would the direct descendants of the Bai family come to Beijing at this juncture? You must know that his father was very dissatisfied with the troubles caused by the students in Yangzhou! At this juncture, you, a son of a salt merchant, would run away
Come to Beijing…………
It's hard to say that he doesn't have other purposes, but now it seems that Bai Yi's main purpose is to find a wife! Li Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly, she is really a gentle lady and a gentleman. It has always been the case that girls marry high and girls marry low. This is what the Bai family is doing.
Want to reach the heights of the Korean government?
Even so, it has nothing to do with Li Yi. Instead, Li Yi has to rely on the strength of the Bai family. He has just accepted his olive branch. But you did this with a backhand. It is inevitably a bit rude!
Li Ruo knew that what he just said must have made Bai Yi unhappy. How many men can tolerate the woman they like being said to be more suitable with another man?
So Li Er quickly said, "Jia Huiyu definitely won't worry about these things. He doesn't give Xiao Wang any face. He has never participated in such a poetry gathering. How can he come because of the daughter of a Korean princess?"
Li Er saw that everyone nodded in agreement with regret, and then looked at Bai Yi. Sure enough, Bai Yi's face improved a little. Li Er quickly continued, "I think Ziqi may have this strength, maybe I can give it a try."
, what if the beauty comes home in my arms?"
When Bai Yi heard this, he smiled bitterly and cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your love. I have actually had such unrealistic fantasies before, but I failed because of my lack of talent and knowledge..."
This really surprised Li Yi. He didn't expect that Bai Yi actually tried it and failed! Judging from Bai Yi's article just now, even if he participated in the imperial examination, he would definitely be the number one scholar.
I gave in, but Ren Suxuan could actually defeat such a person!
At this time, Li Ruo truly felt from the bottom of his heart that perhaps Jia Jing was the only one who could give this talented woman some color!
Bai Yi smiled and said, "But it doesn't matter. I believe that as long as I continue to make progress and keep learning, sooner or later, I will be able to surpass Miss Ren's talent!"
What else can Li Ruo say, it can only be encouragement! It cannot be said that in my opinion, if Ren Suxuan has this ability to defeat you easily, then I am afraid that you will probably have no hope in this life...
Li Gou on the side saw Li Nuo and Bai Yi chatting happily. He was so excited that he wanted to show off his face by interfering with each other. However, he also knew that although Li Nuo was playing with him and taking him with him, if he really had
Li Yan could see through what he was thinking at a glance and would definitely let it go!
After all, what they were fighting against was their family's business, and Li Gou, a loser with a sensitive identity, was destined to be something everyone would be wary of!
We can even keep him now because he is honest enough, and Emperor Yongxi cannot bear to be stained with the blood of his own clan. After all, the Emperor's accession to the throne was a little shady back then, so killing him will inevitably lead to false accusations!
But Li Gou's restless heart really wanted to cause trouble, so he had no choice but to turn his head away. If he couldn't do it, he could only wait for after the banquet to see if Bai Yi had a chance to be alone. Then maybe he could go up and make friends.
Fan.
Thinking like this, Li Gou turned his head and saw a familiar figure walking over. Li Gou was stunned for a moment, then his face darkened, and he stretched out his hand to wave. The familiar figure stepped forward, stretched out his wine glass, and the man
Pour him a drink.
No one noticed that Li Gou's lips moved slightly and he whispered softly, "What are you doing here!" The wine bottle in the man's hand paused for a moment, then continued to pour it down, and said slightly aggrievedly, "Something serious has happened, and the prince needs to deal with it urgently."
When Li Gou heard this, his expression remained unchanged and he said, "What big thing could be more important than your getting close to Jia Jing?" The man fell silent and stopped talking. Li Gou couldn't help but glared at her, his face full of hatred.
The visitor was Liu Qianqian who was disguised as a palace maid. At this time, she was pouring wine in a very aggrieved manner. Li Gou was slightly angry and said, "Tell me, how long have you been delaying? How long have I pushed you? What's the result?"
?You still have trouble even meeting Jia Jing!"
Liu Qianqian moved her tender lips and said, "We still have to wait, we have to wait..." Li Gou said slightly angrily, "How long do we have to wait!"
Liu Qianqian lowered her head and stopped talking. Li Gou took a few deep breaths and said softly, "I know this matter, which makes you a little embarrassed for a while, but can you tell me, do you know how famous you are?"
Do you know how many of you here don’t know you? Why did you take the risk to come in!"
