Chapter 121: Being Hung Up
When Bai Xuan returned to Juyi Pavilion, the meeting had already ended early.

The first thing Ning Jianshuang asked when they met was: "When are you planning to leave?"

This saved Bai Xuan the trouble of explaining: "Tomorrow morning."

"Okay." Ning Jianshuang nodded: "I'll make some preparations."

Bai Xuan interrupted: "Wait a minute, are you planning to go with us too?"

Ning Jianshuang lifted a strand of hair and asked, "Is it inappropriate?"

Bai Xuan crossed his arms and said, "I'm planning to go on a trip for the court, which is half a business trip. If you come with me..."

"If you go on a business trip, I can also go on a business trip to discuss business." Ning Jianshuang said.

"Then our destinations may not be the same."

"I know where you're going." Ning Jianshuang smiled. "Master Jingxuan came to the Jiang family before. You must be interested in the Sword Immortal's remains. There are only two or three months left before the Baimei Sect's Sword Trial. You must be heading in the direction of the Baimei Sect. I'm also on my way... I just happen to be going to Langya."

The cooperation between Juyi Pavilion and the Lin family has its own benefits. It would be better to discuss this matter directly in Langya.

Ning Jianshuang had obviously arranged all this in advance.

"What about Juyi Pavilion?"

"Don't worry, as long as you're alive, Juyi Pavilion will not fall. With your reputation here, everything will be fine." Ning Jianshuang said softly, "And thanks to you, I got a good trump card for Juyi Pavilion."

"Is it the Embroidered Uniform Guard?" Bai Xuan tried to ask.

Ning Jianshuang shook her head and raised her finger mysteriously: "You don't need to know about this. I believe this favor will be useful in the future."

She is not a vase. She did not show up today. She observed secretly and has already understood the whole story. At the same time, she also made a business deal and made preparations for the future.

The three most talented women in the capital, headed by Ning Jianshuang, are of great value.

As for the other two talented women, they actually sent visiting cards, but they were thrown into the brazier and burned by Ning Jianshuang.

Bai Xuan also knew that he couldn't persuade Ning Jianshuang. Even if this young lady tried to stop him, she would still follow him secretly. He could only say, "It's not appropriate for me to mobilize a large force this time."

"I understand." Ning Jianshuang said, "I'm not even taking Luluo with me on this trip. It's just the two of us."

"Uncle Huai isn't bringing it either?"

"He's old now, so it's good for him to stay at the Ningguo Mansion to retire." Ning Jianshuang said, "He used to always worry about me, but now that you're with him, he won't say anything."

"You want him to..."

"He's planning to take in a disciple recently and is selecting someone from the Juyi Pavilion. The legacy must be passed down." Ning Jianshuang accompanied Bai Xuan as they walked down the sunset-lit slope, crossing the small bridge over the flowing water. "I originally thought these peaceful days could last a little longer, but after all, people in the martial arts world don't stay in one place."

"You are not a Jianghu person."

"I'm on the Crouching Dragon List, so how can I not be a Jianghu person?" Ning Jianshuang lifted her hair and said, "Okay, just drop me off here. Shouldn't you go somewhere else next?"

"Where are we going?" Bai Xuan asked, "Duke Ning's mansion has horses, so I don't need to buy any, right?"

"Would you like to think about it again?"

"I plan to withdraw next month's salary from the account. This trip will cost a lot of money." Bai Xuan continued.

Ning Jianshuang was hesitant to speak when facing her own Erlang. She looked at his expression and thought, well... it didn't seem like he was pretending.

"King Yun."

"what?"

"Lian Xing." Ning Jianshuang pointed out: "Aren't you going to say goodbye?"

"The Embroidered Uniform Guard is under her jurisdiction. She should know about my departure from Beijing." Bai Xuan's answer was that of a straight man.

Ning Jianshuang pursed her lips slightly.

Hold it back, don't laugh.

Suddenly I feel that I don’t need to be so strict with my best friend.

Erlang's brain is completely clueless. He is still a child and doesn't understand anything.

She has already reminded him clearly, and since Bai Xuan feels that he doesn't need to go, then he might as well not go.

Miss Ning would not urge her Erlang to see other women, so she returned to the Ningguo Mansion in a good mood.

As soon as I arrived at the door of my house, I was suddenly startled and felt something was wrong.

broken.

He didn't go to see the sea, the sea brought its own waves.

There was a carriage parked outside the Duke's Mansion. It was completely different from the spendthrift woman in the palace. It was low-key, luxurious and profound. The material of the carriage itself was extremely restrained, and all the decoration was placed on the jade lion. It was obviously a prince-level car, a top-level performance car, which was definitely not something that could be bought with 520,000 taels of silver.

After entering the door, I saw Jiang Lianxing, who was dressed very exquisitely, sitting in the guest seat, and everyone else had a smile on their face.

After seeing Bai Xuan and Ning Jianshuang coming back, Jiang Lianxing took the initiative to walk out and greet them.

"Welcome back."

"..."

Ning Jianshuang thought to herself, I am the hostess here, why are you stealing my lines?
She saluted politely: "Greetings, Your Highness."

Bai Xuan acted very casually: "Greetings, His Royal Highness Prince Yun."

"No need to be so polite." Jiang Lianxing hadn't seen her beloved young man for a long time. This was the first time she saw him dressed like this, and she was a little surprised.

Bai Xuan originally had the potential to be a human succubus, and now with his body shape and the embellishment of his clothes, his charm was even more magnified.

Those who like you will like you more, and those who hate you will hate you more.

She said softly, "It's been a while since we last met. I was afraid of disturbing your retreat, so..."

Bai Xuan nodded: "I just came out of seclusion today, but I didn't expect to encounter such an accident."

Jiang Lianxing revealed a look of shared hatred and solidarity: "Indeed, what Qi Wuyi did this time was really excessive. He was so arrogant that he rushed into the imperial city to act wildly and even dared to hurt people. He was simply playing the piano. This Penglai Sword Pavilion should be properly disciplined."

Bai Xuan explained, "That's not necessary. Penglai Sword Pavilion is a neutral force that can be won over. Besides, Qi Wuyi came here with great enthusiasm and left with great enthusiasm. He didn't hurt me and even treated me to tea. He's quite a nice person."

"Is that so?" Jiang Lianxing smoothed her hair gently, "Then I'll listen to you."

Luoluo and the palace maid who heard these words almost fell down.

No, Your Highness?
Are you so obedient?
Isn’t this the prince consort?
Just a few words can so disturb the opinion of a country's crown prince, this, this, this——!
If this boy is not eliminated, there will definitely be chaos in the harem in the future!

Southern Chu is in danger!

The palace maid had already sounded the alarm in her heart, and she had to find an opportunity to secretly report to the emperor. She was originally arranged to eavesdrop.

"Let's go in and talk." Ning Jianshuang said, "Everyone else go down."

There is space available for three people to have a private chat.

This was also the first time the three of them met after arriving in Beijing. The last time was at the Jiang family funeral.

Bai Xuan got straight to the point: "Are you here to give me a mission? I thought it would be the Four Great Constables, but I didn't expect it would be you in person."

"You're leaving, how could I not come and see you off?" Jiang Lianxing looked at him seriously, folding her hands and supporting her chin: "You are very important to me." "What you said makes people misunderstand." Bai Xuan teased: "It sounds like a confession."

There were ripples in Jiang Lianxing's eyes and a blush appeared on her cheeks.

Ning Jianshuang's heart skipped a beat and he was about to interrupt the spell.

Bai Xuan continued, "That's not because I haven't been liked by girls since I was a child, so I believe it."

This is the truth. Bai Xuan always thinks that he is not popular with the opposite sex. From elementary school to junior high school to high school to college, he has never received a love letter. It is obvious that he is not liked by girls, but he is quite popular with the same sex... Brother, you smell so good.

In the world of true cultivation, there are very few emotional experiences. People are mainly busy fighting, killing, practicing skills and leveling up all day long. Talking about love is a waste of time.

He was a little slow in this regard. Even Qin Zhaojun's feelings for him only became clear to him after waiting for a thousand years.

I didn't think about it at the time because the age difference was too big.

Jiang Lianxing: “…”

She glanced at her best friend - are those girls blind?
Ning Jianshuang stared back - let me know who they are, and send them all to Xuanhumen for treatment.

"Let's talk about the specific case." Bai Xuan asked in a professional manner, "Who do you want me to get rid of?"

Jiang Lianxing chuckled, "This is a mission assigned by the Imperial Court to the Embroidered Uniform Guards, not a bounty offered by the demonic sect."

She took out a scroll and handed it to Bai Xuan: "I have recorded all the details in it. You can read it slowly on the way."

"Won't you introduce me?"

"No, the records are very detailed, and I don't want to waste time talking about these topics now." Jiang Lianxing reached out and held the boy's hand: "I must prioritize your safety. It doesn't matter even if I fail. Promise me, okay?"

Sister, what are you doing?
Is it too much to just jump in?!

Ning Jianshuang calmly covered it with his hands: "Your Highness, please rest assured. I am here with you and I will ensure that nothing will happen to him."

All of a sudden, the look of "across the water, unable to express affection in words" turned into the scene of the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang becoming sworn brothers.

The ambiguous atmosphere was completely killed, and instead it looked like two leftover women were taking advantage of young men born in the 00s.

Jiang Lianxing realized that her good sister was stabbing her in the back, and that she might not be able to gain favor with her. She also realized that the tea art skills she had just learned were useless.

Compared with Ning Jianshuang, I am still too weak to become the crown prince without experiencing any palace fighting. I won easily.

But it doesn’t matter. If she can’t do it, she can just spend money.

"I heard that you have run out of precious medicine, so I brought you some more." Jiang Lianxing clapped her hands lightly, and the palace maid brought up a box. The box had five layers and contained more than a dozen precious medicines, all of which were top-quality and hundreds of years old.

(Note: Millennium-level creatures do not exist. They have become spirits, can run and hide, and in order to prevent being caught and eaten, they will transform their physique into a highly toxic substance that is harmful to the human body. All we can say is that life will always find a way out. This is very evolutionary.)

Jiang Lianxing felt a little regretful at this time, because she wanted to go to the treasure house to retrieve a Sumeru ring to give to Bai Xuan, but was told that the ring had been taken away by her sister.

Bai Xuan sighed: "Your Highness is so generous!"

The top guy on the list has made a lot of money, so this wave of emotional value must be given enough.

"I don't know what to say to express my feelings. How about I do a split for you?"

Jiang Lianxing shook her head slightly, and Baochai's pearls swayed: "Why are you so polite?"

"I should still do something, otherwise I won't feel at ease accepting this money." Bai Xuan thought to himself that when he was a child, he would even knock the washbasin into a dent for a red envelope of 100 yuan. Don't overestimate the moral integrity of modern people.

"Then how about this..." Jiang Lianxing thought for a moment: "Would you like to praise me?"

Ning Jianshuang squinted her eyes slightly. This best friend is really...

In the past, countless people surrounded her and praised her, but what she hated most was this kind of flattery.

Now she actually asks the other party to praise her beauty, and she doesn't even want to act anymore.

"That's easy." Bai Xuan opened his mouth and said, "There is no one like him in the whole world. He was born thousands of years ago."

Ning Jianshuang was stunned: "?"

Jiang Lianxing: “!”

"It seems like the moon is covered by light clouds, and it flutters like the snow covered by the flowing wind."

"???"

"Pearl tassels swirl and the stars shake; flower garlands dance and dragons and snakes stir in the jungle."

"..."

"Clear water brings out hibiscus, and nature removes the carvings."

"Stop, stop, that's enough."

Jiang Lianxing blushed as she heard each beautiful line of poetry.

These poems praising women's beauty were the first time she had heard them, and every line was exquisite.

Bai Xuan asked: "Is that really enough?"

Although I copied a lot of poems, I basically never used them to flirt with girls, so many love poems and poems and songs that praised women's beauty were never used.

If it weren't for the inappropriate time, I could bring out "The Goddess of Luo River" and "The Fairy Jinghuan" for you.

"Okay, you, you first... let me take a break."

Jiang Lianxing almost didn't dare to look at the boy. She never thought that he looked at her like this... Yes, it must be after seeing an extremely beautiful woman that he had so much inspiration and could speak so eloquently.

Although she had heard Ning Jianshuang mention that Bai Xuan had studied and had excellent literary talent, she had not expected him to be at such a level and to have the talent to be the top scholar.

He is truly a man of both civil and military talents.

As the dignified Queen of Southern Chu, many talented men would write poems and lyrics to praise her beauty, but they never thought that today, she would be praised for her beauty.

Ning Jianshuang was also stunned for a while, and his eyes became complicated.

These poems are dedicated to Jiang Lianxing. As a woman, she can't help but feel a little jealous.

If these poems were to be spread, I wonder how many women would be heartbroken.

……

That night, the little palace maid reported all the news she heard to the person in the palace.

Jiang Wanyue sat on the couch, her expression unpredictable.

...He is about to leave the capital.

...I also wrote many poems for my sister.

...You're the only one not planning to go into the Forbidden City to say goodbye to me?

She hugged her knees.

If you don't come to me, how can I not come to you?!
Then he stood up and looked around.

A man in red clothes wrapped around his shoulders climbed out of the window.
