What might have been a tragic "traffic accident" ended with a happy ending due to Jia Cong's forced intervention.
Everyone, including the guards around the prince of a certain clan, were shocked by Jia Cong's sudden strong performance, and did not dare to show any signs of neglect when facing such a fierce man.
No, the guards surrounded a certain prince who was still in shock, but they did not dare to drive away Jia Cong who was supporting the prince, and just pretended that he did not exist.
Jia Cong, however, did not mean to offend him. He let go of the prince's arm and returned to the carriage where Lin Ruhai was riding.
At the same time, the originally turbulent energy and blood in the body slowly returned to normal, the suddenly tense muscles and bones slowly returned to their original state, and the protruding height quietly returned to normal levels.
"etc……"
A hoarse voice came from behind. It was the handsome young man who was slowly coming to his senses, the heir apparent of a certain clan who had just been rescued.
"What are you doing?"
Jia Cong turned around and asked directly: "No need to thank you, it's just a matter of convenience!"
This was his sincerity, and he didn’t know this guy. How could he have so many complicated thoughts when the incident happened suddenly?
But the more he showed that he didn't care, the more the other party respected him.
“I don’t know the name of my benefactor?”
The handsome young man's eyes were full of gratitude, but now was not a good time to repay him, so he had no choice but to ask.
"Rongguo Mansion, Jia Cong!"
With a chuckle and a wave of his hand, Jia Cong walked directly to the carriage Lin Ruhai was riding in, and quickly left the dock with the convoy.
"Jia Cong of Rongguo Mansion?"
The handsome young man, who had recovered from his frightened state, carefully recited the somewhat familiar name Jia Cong, suddenly realized and said in surprise: "Could it be the 'Three Young Masters Cong' from the Three Kingdoms?"
It was a pity that the guards around him couldn't answer. He wanted to catch up and ask, but the steward who came from the accompanying motorcade made him temporarily put aside his thoughts. Instead, he remembered Jia Cong's name deeply in his mind.
Whether it was Jia Cong's extraordinary bravery, his great strength in swinging a horse with one hand, or his identity as the author of the Three Kingdoms, the handsome young man had a strong desire to make acquaintances.
It's just a pity that he still has to send his elders on the boat now. It won't be too late to look for them when he has free time later.
As for the frightened sixth-rank petty official, his family members and maids, he did not need to speak in person. The palace stewards came forward to apologize.
…
On the other side, Lin Ruhai sat on the carriage and did not speak for a long time.
It wasn't until the Lin family's motorcade entered the official road leading to the capital that they calmly said, "Brother Cong, please don't be so reckless in the future!"
His tone was light and somewhat accusatory, and he was obviously not very happy about Jia Cong's rash action.
It's not that he is cold-blooded, but that Jia Cong's actions are too dangerous. There is also a layer of worry. If the person is not saved, Jia Cong may be angered.
That clan's fleet was extremely impressive and had a very conspicuous logo. Lin Ruhai had already recognized the other party's identity.
It was precisely because of this that he did not show up immediately, otherwise it would be difficult for Guitianlixia to explain, and he would not be able to bear the label of being "closely associated with the clan".
Fortunately, the matter ended happily and the worst situation did not occur. Jia Cong also received a huge favor, so he was not scolded on the spot.
"The incident happened suddenly and I didn't think much about it at all!"
Jia Cong said calmly: "Fortunately, my nephew still has some courage, uncle, don't blame me!"
"You..."
Lin Ruhai was speechless, pointed at Jia Cong with a smile, and said leisurely: "Since you know what's going on, I'm afraid this is your chance!"
"Oh, uncle knows the identity of the young prince?"
"Haha, that person's identity is not simple. He is the crown prince of Chu, the great lord of the current clan!"
…
Jia Cong didn’t take saving people too seriously!
Just as he explained to Lin Ruhai, when the incident happened suddenly, he didn't think much about it at all, and he didn't make any calculations before taking action.
As for the possible rewards from the Crown Prince of Chu, he didn't care much.
It would be nice if there was one, but it doesn't matter if there isn't. It won't have much impact on him. It depends on the character of the Crown Prince of Chu.
After the carriage that had been escorting Lin Ruhai arrived near Lin Mansion in the capital, Jia Cong said goodbye and left without agreeing on a time to visit.
The relationship between him and Lin Ruhai can be said to be irreversible. After all, they fought together in the quagmire of Yangzhou Salt Administration. It is not an exaggeration to say that their friendship is a life-long friendship, so there is no need to be too polite.
After Jia Cong returned home, there was really no way to guess the thoughts of the big boss in the mansion. No one knew whether the old lady would have any bad opinion of him.
Not only the old lady's side, but also the attitude of the eldest man and Mrs. Xing must be considered, as well as the reaction of his sister-in-law Wang Xifeng, which is really hard to figure out.
What he did in Jiangnan was, strictly speaking, extremely bold, and had even violated the old lady's taboo of not giving face to the elders of Jinling.
The old lady is old and the number one boss in the house. The most shameful thing is not to give the old lady face.
Otherwise, Rongguo Mansion would not have such a rule that "all cats and dogs in the old lady's room must be respected." The young ladies in the mansion would even have to call the housekeeper Lai Da "Grandpa Lai."
Although such a bizarre behavior has become an outright joke in the elite circles in the capital, it cannot be denied that the old lady's energy and authority cannot be violated lightly.
Fortunately, when he went to Jiangnan, he followed the officials of the investigation team. In Yangzhou, he basically acted alone and rarely mixed with Lian Er, which saved him a lot of trouble.
At least, Xing'er and Wang'er, the confidants around Lian Er, didn't quite understand what he had done. Even if the old lady interrogated him, she wouldn't be able to tell much explosive content. For Jia Cong, this was enough.
The guards of the Xue family don't know much, and given Xue Pan's temperament, they won't ask these questions, which saves them a lot of unnecessary trouble.
On the way back home, he also specially told Xue Pan: "You kid, be smart and don't talk nonsense. If I hear some rumors that shouldn't be made, you kid will wait for a day to tell me something."
Hit the stone lock a hundred times!"
This threat was so powerful that Xue Pan, who was so fat that his face turned pale with shock, nodded without any hesitation.
When we arrived at Ningrong Street, it was still lively and noisy.
The tribesmen on the road didn't even react at all when they saw Jia Cong. Instead, they politely greeted Xue Pan, who was surrounded by guards, saying, "Uncle Xue is back in Beijing."
Damn, it’s really...
Separating from Xue Pan and entering the black oil gate of the General's Mansion, there was no disturbance at all, as if Jia Cong had never left.
He went directly to the main courtyard of the General's Mansion and asked the mother-in-law who was guarding the door: "Is your wife at home?"
That's it, there's no need to pretend to be disgusting, a little transparent is a little transparent, no one cares...
