"Tell me what you want from me. I have set up a late watch formation outside the pavilion. No one will hear our conversation."
After hearing Luo Wenzhou say that Hong Yaxuan must go to him for naming this time, plus the prefecture-level option, Jiang Beiran was basically sure that what Hong Yaxuan wanted to tell him this time would be something big.
Although Hong Yaxuan didn't know what the late night formation was, she knew that Lin Yu's eldest brother was very strong. Since he said no one would hear it, then no one should be able to hear it.
'Ah...it seems that he thinks I have something important to tell him.'
Hong Yaxuan felt a little panicked. Although she did find something, it was not really a big deal. She must see Lin Yu this time. In fact, she mainly wanted to see him again.
"I...I..." Hong Yaxuan clasped her fingers and looked nervous, unable to say a complete sentence for a long time.
Jiang Beiran was not in a hurry and continued to make steady moves, encroaching on Luo Wenzhou's remaining territory on the chessboard.
Finally, Hong Yaxuan, who had straightened out her thoughts, said, "I actually want to ask you for help with something."
"clatter."
Jiang Beiran, who had dropped a sunspot, raised his head and said, "When you ask for help, you have to have the attitude of asking for help. If you want me to say please, you know?"
For such a pampered young lady, as long as you treat her a little better, she will be able to go to heaven. If it is not involved, Jiang Beiran doesn't care. If you get angry with the young lady, I will ignore you.
But now that Miss Hong is involved in clues about prefecture-level options, Jiang Beiran naturally wants to teach her as early as possible to save her from slipping up at the critical moment.
Although Jiang Beiran's tone was not very serious this time, Hong Yaxuan felt that the voice could penetrate her soul and made her tremble uncontrollably.
At the same time, I also recalled the terrifying image of Jiang Beiran in the village that day.
Swallowing her saliva, Hong Yaxuan bowed and said, "The little lady wants to ask your husband for help."
"Well, tell me."
Outside the pavilion, Qin Cuirong watched this scene and couldn't help but be stunned. Who was the person Lin Lang brought? How could the young lady who was always fearless be so well-behaved when she saw him?
When Qin Cuirong was astonished, Hong Yaxuan saluted and asked, "I wonder if you, sir, know about the Liu family in Jiyuan Town?"
"Know."
Jiang Beiran naturally remembered that the Liu family was the last of the four major families in Jiyuan Town, and that the patriarch was the father-in-law of the emperor.
"My family and the Liu family actually have a close relationship. We often visit each other's homes on weekdays. But since the Liu family came to my home a few days ago, my father and several brothers have looked a little solemn in the past two days. I...
I was a little worried, so I asked them, but they all told me it was nothing serious and asked me not to think too much."
'The Liu family...'
Jiang Beiran pondered for a moment and then dropped another child.
"My little brother has given up." Luo Wenzhou bowed his head and saluted.
"The first few moves were handled well. Let's study the replay carefully."
"yes."
After covering the chess case, Jiang Beiran looked up at Hong Yaxuan and asked me: "So what do you want me to help you with?"
Hong Yaxuan first looked at Luo Wenzhou, then looked at Jiang Beiran, and said somewhat cautiously: "Since you are Lin Yu's eldest brother, then Boss Song of Taoju Inn should also be related to you, right?"
Hong Yaxuan actually guessed that Boss Song was also a subordinate of the man in front of her, but she didn't dare to say it directly.
"Hey, you're not stupid after all." Jiang Beiran said with a smile.
"I'm very smart to begin with." Hong Yaxuan muttered quietly.
In fact, when Lin Yu and Boss Song suddenly became famous throughout Jiyuan Town, Hong Yaxuan's first reaction was that since Lin Yu was that person's younger brother, then Boss Song who suddenly appeared in Jiyuan Town with Lin Yu must also be the same.
I have nothing to do with that person.
Taking another breath, Hong Yaxuan continued: "I feel that my father is in trouble this time, but he refused to tell me, so I wanted to find... Oh no, I want you to help me check this
thing."
"Interesting, why did you think of looking for me?" Jiang Beiran asked.
Hong Yaxuan glanced at Luo Wenzhou, who was packing up the chess pieces, and said, "I know that Lin Yu has connections with the maids of several big families in the town, and Boss Song is now a famous person in the town. Even my father has been
I often go to Taoju Inn, so..."
"So you think I know a lot of secrets about the four major families?"
"Well..." Hong Yaxuan nodded.
"Yes, although you behaved very stupidly last time, it seems you can still be saved now."
Hong Yaxuan, who was called stupid to her face again, clenched her fists, but in the end she still didn't dare to have an attack and asked again: "Please help me, sir."
As soon as Hong Yaxuan finished speaking, three options popped up in front of Jiang Beiran's eyes.
‘Why does it have to be me...’
Jiang Beiran sighed inwardly with a headache. Since the Hidden Moon Sect incident, the system's options are no longer as easy to avoid as before, but have become rich and powerful. Well... there is actually no risk.
That’s it.
But compared to before, as long as he kept a low profile enough, he wouldn't get into trouble...
'Okay, I'm not low-key enough...'
But Jiang Beiran felt that he was very eager. He didn't want to get involved in the Yanyue Sect's messy affairs. He was forced to have no choice but...
However, if we think carefully about the "watershed" incident of the Hidden Moon Sect, we can see that Jiang Beiran had been developing for the past five years, and Tiandao's main focus was on his personal efforts.
Now that he has developed into a three-piece suit, Tiandao felt that it was useless to focus on him and use his strength, so he changed it to a map cannon and bombarded the area where he was.
'You want me to make mistakes while busy?'
Jiang Beiran, who felt that this must be the case, sighed inwardly. He had just developed into a three-piece suit, which was still far from the Liushen suit. He didn't want to come out to play in a group at all.
But it is obvious that it is becoming more and more difficult for him to develop obscenely. Not only have the system options changed, but it is now increasingly difficult for him to trigger the option more than a dozen times just by going to a town.
'Tsk, after all, it's better to go ahead and cover up the water and soil, and develop in another way. He can withstand it. Besides, maybe this is just a phased wavelet SS. If it is killed, he will usher in a new development period.'
Thinking of this, Jiang Beiran suddenly felt much happier.
After happily choosing three, Jiang Beiran said: "I can help, but there are two requirements."
"Please tell me." Hong Yaxuan lowered her head and responded.
"First, from now on, you must fully cooperate with me. You must do whatever I ask you to do, and you are not allowed to refuse."
After hearing this, Hong Yaxuan subconsciously wanted to curse, "You're a bastard!", but in the end she didn't dare to say it out loud, so she weakly replied: "Yes."
"Second, since you asked me for help, are you ready for the reward?"
Hong Yaxuan was stunned after hearing this, "The reward...I..."
"You don't want to have sex for nothing, do you?"
"Ah!? I, I, I...I didn't! What free prostitution! Dirty!"
"I've been mean to you and you've been mean to me. You don't even prepare a reward for asking for help. How shameless are you?"
Hong Yaxuan really didn't prepare any reward. After all, she had to get wind and rain at home. Even outside, as long as she said a word, many young masters from big families would be willing to go through fire and water, so asking for help requires reward.
It's really not in her common sense.
He looked up at Jiang Beiran's cold face and expression full of conquest, and then thought of the first request.
Hong Yaxuan lowered her head and said with a blushing face: "If sir can really help me find out about this matter, the little lady will definitely give you a reward that satisfies you, sir."
After saying this, Hong Yaxuan felt that her face was extremely hot.
"Oh? Not bad, you are very enlightened." Jiang Beiran nodded with satisfaction.
Hong Yaxuan's body was trembling a little now, but when she thought of the stories told by storytellers, the girl repaid her life-saving kindness with her own body.
'But I don't even know what his name is. If he does this or that, wouldn't it...'
Just when Hong Yaxuan was thinking wildly, Jiang Beiran said: "Since Miss Hong is so open-minded, I will tell you directly. If I help you find out about this matter, I want the whole piece of smoked jade from your house."
oh."
'Um!?'
For a moment, the thought that flashed through Hong Yaxuan's mind was not, 'How did he know that I have a piece of carved jade in my house?' but, 'Is this lady worse than a piece of jade?'
Qin Cuirong, who had been listening outside the pavilion, almost staggered. Now it's better. I thought that the young lady would become a loser like her, but I didn't expect that it would be like this...
Angry and embarrassed, Hong Yaxuan couldn't help but stamp her feet, but she couldn't help but gritted her teeth and said, "I know!"
