Chapter 140 A Little Shock in the Capital
In a certain courtyard in the city, a man walked quietly through the night, came to a study door, knocked on the door and entered.

"My lord, Xia Jingyun didn't go directly to the capital, and the methods in the capital didn't work, but the people arranged at the Spring Breeze Station ran into him."

"Ah."

The man smiled, "Speaking of which, Yang San was also a bit courageous. He felt that Master Shi didn't hate Xia Jingyun enough. He was afraid that he would not be able to complete the task of the lord, so he actually broke a finger. Sure enough, Master Shi's eyes became red immediately, and he was going to fight Xia Jingyun desperately."

"That's right. After this matter is over, I will give you a big reward. Is there anything else?"

"Subordinates retire!"

After the man left, the man sitting in front of the desk picked up the book and read it for a while, then suddenly put the book down, and said, "After Shi Zijun and Xia Jingyun clash again, kill that Yang San, don't leave anything behind."

In the empty room, a calm answer sounded, "Here!"
-
In the Spring Breeze Station, Su Yuanshang looked at Xia Jingyun and sighed.

"You! I don't even know what to say about you!"

"If I had known you were so capable of causing trouble, we would have gone directly to the city!"

Xia Jingyun smiled embarrassingly, "It's not me who caused trouble, it's something that troubled me."

He looked at Su Yuanshang with a serious face, "But from another perspective, Mr. Su's goal of making me famous has been achieved! Look at the fact that after Mr. Shi left just now, everyone was chatting around me!"

"You will comfort yourself."

Su Yuanshang glanced at him speechlessly, and knocked on the table, "Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites! Although Chun Wei relied on his real talent and learning, but you have offended the son of the Minister of Rites to death. If they really want to trouble you, they can't always find something. You are really reckless this time."

Xia Jingyun let out a hey, "It's okay, I have so many enemies, I don't care about one more, at worst I'll be Mr. Yuhu!"

Su Yuanshang twitched the corners of his mouth, he is a fierce imperial tiger, and he is the same as your thug here.

But along the way, he could also see that Jiang Yuhu really admired Xia Jingyun, and if Xia Jingyun really wanted to do something, Jiang Yuhu would really not ignore it.

Coupled with the help of Concubine De, the Su family's help, and a Minister of Rites, if offended, he will be offended.

What's more, from the bottom of his heart, although Xia Jingyun's actions were very unwise from a utilitarian point of view, they inexplicably made him identify with the person in front of him even more.

"Another one, now that he has entered Beijing, many things will officially start to be put on the agenda."

Su Yuanshang laid out a few peas on the table, and picked up the first one, "Lv Yi, how do you plan to arrange it?"

Xia Jingyun rubbed the center of his brows, "It depends on his own wishes. After coming out of the underground rivers and lakes, he must let people live a stable life."

"Your conclusion is that you failed to respect other people's wishes!" Su Yuanshang smiled, "I have talked with Lu Yi, and his character and ability are actually very suitable for that environment. There are many strange people and strange things in the market, and at the same time, he is also an excellent source of information. If you want to achieve great things, don't give up on this aspect."

Xia Jingyun naturally knew this, but he wasn't sure about Lu Yi's thoughts. The life of being a big brother sounded pleasant, but he was licking blood, being surrounded by enemies on all sides, and he couldn't sleep well. It wasn't the life he wanted Lu Yi to live after following him.

After thinking about it, he called Lu Yi in.

Why bother to think about it so much, why don't you just call and ask?

Xia Jingyun first told Su Yuanshang's thoughts, and then said with a smile, "Don't have any worries, if you don't want to live like that, I also have good arrangements for where to go."

Lu nodded, "Before today, I would have been hesitant. Brother Su was right. My temperament and ability are actually suitable for you to expand your territory in Jianghu. It's just that things like this will inevitably make you unable to stand on the stage. If you grow up in the future, due to reputation and other considerations, it is very likely that I will be the first abandoned child."

He looked at Xia Jingyun, "But after tonight, I don't have this worry anymore, or I dare to gamble on this future."

He smiled easily, with a heroic and free-spirited smile, "I have heard that there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the capital, and Brother Su accompanied the young master in the officialdom, so I will go to the market and rivers and lakes to meet them."

The relationship between Xia Jingyun and Lu Yi has always been simple and direct, "Well, I will fully support you behind the scenes."

Lu Yi blinked, "I'm not used to a man standing behind me. Go support your women."

Su Yuanshang couldn't help but rolled his eyes, Xia Jingyun said speechlessly: "Mr. Su is right, you really can't get on the stage!"

Lu Yi laughed twice, got up and left.

Su Yuanshang picked up the second pea again, "Let Chen Fugui be by your side, his relatives, you have to think about taking it for him."

Xia Jingyun thought for a while, "After I settle down tomorrow, I will ask him to see if he is willing to bring his family back or stay in Sishui Prefecture. If he stays in Sishui Prefecture, he can let my master, parents and others take care of him."

Su Yuanshang raised his head and looked straight at him, Xia Jingyun shook his head, "No need, I believe in his loyalty, so I don't have to use such methods."

Su Yuanshang nodded, continued to pick up another pea, and was about to speak when another thing suddenly occurred to his mind.

"Our previous plans were all based on the close cooperation between Concubine De and you. What if Concubine De has changed her attitude after returning to Beijing?"

Xia Jingyun thought for a while, "From the perspective of utilitarianism, this is not very realistic. After all, I have been proving my worth and bringing benefits to her. From an emotional analysis, I believe in sister's character."

He smiled, "And no matter what, we will see tomorrow."

Su Yuanshang hummed, "Yes, then let's continue."

As the night gradually darkened, the lights in the station room gradually went out, only in their room, the solitary lamp was like a bean, accompanied by low voices.

The next day, Xia Jingyun yawned and walked out of the room, just in time to meet Bai Yunbian who was also going out.

Without the accompanying maid, Bai Yunbian's spirit of waking up every day was obviously much better, and his eyes turned back and forth on Xia Jingyun's face.

Xia Jingyun touched his face, "What's wrong? Are there any flowers on my face?"

"Did you hide a woman in the house?"

Xia Jingyun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Then did you hear any movement last night?"

"did not hear it."

"Grass, you really listened!"

The two laughed and quarreled, and walked down, Bai Yunbian suddenly mumbled something quickly, "Thank you for last night."

Xia Jingyun picked his ears, "What? I didn't hear clearly?"

Bai Yun stopped and glared at him, "I can handle it myself!"

"Yes, yes. I am meddling in my own business."

"That's not true." Bai Yunbian quickly explained, but immediately reacted to Xia Jingyun's narrow eyes, he stretched out his foot to kick, but Xia Jingyun dodged it, almost twisted his waist, and walked away angrily.

Xia Jingyun smiled and walked towards the lobby, and suddenly understood why Jiang Yuhu liked to "moase" Mr. Bai so much.

Along the way, the disciples I met all saluted him respectfully, not only because of his status as Xie Yuan, but also because he was not afraid of power and at the same time was able to overthrow it, which was really in line with the temperament and cognition of these young people.

To a certain extent, Su Yuanshang's goal of becoming famous has been achieved.

In the lobby of the inn, the guards of the Bai family were standing. When they saw Xia Jingyun, they clasped their fists together and bowed deeply.

The head of the guard said seriously: "Master Xia, I will not thank you for your kindness, but if you have something to send, I will wait for you!"

Xia Jingyun smiled and helped him up, "We're going together all the way to support each other, and there's no way to stand by and watch. That's too serious a word."

And people like Chen Fugui looked at Xia Jingyun with more and more respect from the bottom of their hearts.

"Okay, everyone, let's not delay, let's go to Beijing!"

"Yes!"

Everyone packed their bags, those who led the horses led the horses, and walked out of the Spring Breeze Station together.

Yi Cheng watched them leave, stroked his chest with lingering fear, "Finally left."

A postman whispered beside him, "Did they forget to pay?"

Yi Cheng's expression froze, and he immediately kicked him over, "Then why are you standing there, why don't you hurry up and chase after him!"

"My lord, do you think I dare to go?"

"Then do you fucking look at me as if I dare to go?"

The two stared at each other, Yicheng sighed, "Forget it, let's do it like this. Mr. Shi didn't give money last night, and these two didn't give any money today, these sons of the rich and powerful."

He was suddenly kicked by the postman, and he glared at him immediately, "You are so fucking courageous"

The postman quietly pointed to the direction of the door, and the scarred-faced guard next to Mr. Xia came in, smiled and put a piece of broken silver on the stage, "Sorry, I forgot to pay. Thank you for your hospitality. I will see you later."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for the two of them to open their mouths, they turned around and strode away.

The postman looked at the piece of broken silver on the table, and then at the people who had gone away, thinking that Mr. Xia was willing to offend Mr. Shangshu for his little guard last night, and said with emotion: "This Xia Jieyuan seems to be different from other dignitaries."

Yi Cheng stroked his chin, "Such a person went to that place where people eat people without spitting out their bones, and I don't know if it's good or bad!"

Walking up the official road, after less than a hundred steps, Xia Jingyun and his party were startled by the battle in front of them.

I saw dozens of tables, large and small, on both sides of the official road outside the Spring Breeze Station.

A banner with the name of XX Inn is written on each table.

As soon as they saw Xia Jingyun and the others coming, they immediately knew that this was a big customer, and people rushed over from almost every table, about dozens of people, surrounded them and yelled at the same time.

"My lord! Do you want to stay in the hotel? Our Yuelai Inn is a century-old brand, cheap and good quality, no one can deceive you!"

"The young master lives with us, our Hongfu Inn,"

"Young master, our Tongfu Inn hides dragons and crouching tigers, and even the accountant is a scholar. Staying with us guarantees that your writing and thinking will flow like a spring, and the spring will be like a god's help!"

Xia Jingyun and his party, except for Su Yuanshang, looked dumbfounded.

Is this Zhongjing City?
