Chapter 371 Just pick

When Cheng Jiao entered the main hall.

Gongsun Yu slowly put away the letter he was reading.

"Jing Ke, I have read Gai Nie's letter. When you see him, tell him that I thank him for his kindness, but as a Wei citizen, there are things that must be faced."

Jing Ke was wrapped in bandages. Seeing Gongsun Yu's serious tone, he nodded and said, "I understand."

Cheng Jiao paused slightly, Gongsun Yu seemed to have something else to say.

It didn't sound like she was talking to Gai Nie, it sounded more like she was talking to him.

Gongsun Yu said in a loud voice: "Lord Chang'an, I have already learned about what happened last night from Li Ji. I am sorry that you frightened me. Today I will issue a notice to arrest those thieves."

Cheng Jiao said: "The old general is thoughtful. I wonder if the old general knows anything about the Yin family."

Gongsun Yu said solemnly: "Of course I understand. Ever since the Yin family came to Wei State, they have been restless and have interfered in Wei State's affairs many times."

Cheng Jiao smiled and said, "I see. General, can you help me eliminate this hidden danger?"

Gongsun Yu was suspicious and said, "Chang'an Jun wants to attack the Yin family? You know, there are no less than ten top masters in the Yin family."

Cheng Jiao said disdainfully: "Although there are many top masters, most of them are beginners and are nothing."

Ten top masters who have just entered the team are not as good as Zi Nu, Yan Fei and Meng Niang together.

Gongsun Yu pondered and said, "Since you want to take action, I happen to have some information here, so I will tell Lord Chang'an."

Cheng Jiao thought to himself, I must be sleepy, so he brought a pillow.

Rather than waiting for the Yin family to ambush him, he prefers to buy at the bottom directly.

"Old General, please tell me."

Gongsun Yu said: "The Yin family gathers once in a while. The recent gatherings are all in Yewang. Every time I take people there, the place is empty. It seems that someone has leaked the information.

Therefore, if Chang'an Jun wants to get rid of them, it is best to go alone. The place where they gathered this time is the Spring and Autumn Inn. "

Cheng Jiao's heart moved. Is it such a coincidence?

The Chunqiu Inn was where he was going to stay when he arrived in Yewang.

It is the best inn in Yewang.

"That's great, when will they go?"

Gongsun Yu smiled: "Tonight, at sunset."

Cheng Jiao said casually: "The old general knows it very well. It seems that he has spies in the Yin family."

Gongsun Yu said: "Of course, after fighting the Yin family so many times, some precautions are necessary. Young Master, don't make a fuss when you go there this time, just stop those people. When my troops arrive, they will never return."

Cheng Jiao did not make any statement.

What a joke! He could get Gongsun Yu to help? Does he still want money?
He went there to rob and extort, not to help defend the country and suppress bandits.

Cheng Jiao and Gongsun Yu finished talking.

Jing Ke said shyly, "Old man, I have an unwelcome request."

Cheng Jiao rarely saw Jing Ke like this, so he sipped tea and watched the show.

Gongsun Yu laughed and said, "I have some friendship with the previous leader of the Mohist school, Lu Goujian. There is no need to be restrained. Just tell me."

Jing Ke's face became serious: "I hope you can teach me swordsmanship. The master said that your swordsmanship is unmatched by many people in the world."

Gongsun Yu was slightly startled: "I didn't expect that the Six-Fingered Black Knight would think so highly of me. Haha, it's okay for me to teach you. Become his disciple."

Jing Ke was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, teacher."

Witnessed by Cheng Jiao, Jing Ke completed the ceremony of becoming a disciple.

There was no trace of Jing Ke's previous casualness.

Gongsun Yu was very satisfied with Jing Ke. Although he was young, his strength was as good as the best.

This gave him the idea of ​​choosing a good husband for Li Ji.

Jing Ke is very suitable.

……

Gongsun Yu took Jing Ke to the martial arts training ground, but Cheng Jiao was not interested in watching the two old men practice sword fighting.

It just so happened that Li Ji was learning sword skills from him, so he simply taught Li Ji some sword skills.

Many beads of sweat flowed down Li Ji's pretty face. It was just after September and the weather was still hot.

Cheng Jiao took back the wooden sword and said, "Let's go here first."

Li Ji nodded. Her physical strength was no longer enough to support her high-intensity training.

Cheng Jiao glanced at the sky and saw that it was just past noon.

"Is there any good place in Yewang? Take me to see it."

When Li Ji heard that Cheng Jiao wanted to go out for a walk, her pretty face lit up with joy, thinking it was a good opportunity.

"Yes, there are many delicious and fun things, as well as some local specialties..."

Niang Rong, who came to see Li Ji, was very interested after hearing this.

"I also need to go!"

Meng Niang behind her glanced at Cheng Jiao and Li Ji.

Could it be that the young master is thinking about it again...

Li Ji was a little depressed. She thought she could spend an afternoon alone with Cheng Jiao, but it seemed that her plan was ruined.

Fortunately, she didn't have any hope for Cheng Jiao, and she knew that she and Cheng Jiao had no future.

Cheng Jiao didn’t care whether Niang Rong followed him or not. He just went out to kill time and it would be lively if there was a group of people around.

Unlike later generations, now every country and every capital has its own unique style.

Compared with Xianyang and Xinzheng, Yewang is not as prosperous and even a bit desolate, but it also has beautiful girls, some of whom can perform acrobatics.

Cheng Jiao was amazed by what he saw.

As for Niang Rong, she expressed her incomprehension of Cheng Jiao's taste, and pulled Li Ji to a shop selling small items to pick out some things she liked.

Niang Rong said generously: "Li Ji, pick whatever you want."

I just got two gold coins back from Cheng Jiao, I have to spend them well.

Li Ji was not polite either. They were all small amounts of money, so she carried them together with Niang Rong.

I saw a very nice jade pendant. Although it only had simple carvings, it was very suitable for Cheng Jiao's temperament.

"I'll take it. How much, sir?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Not expensive, two gold coins."

Niang Rong glared and said, "Who are you kidding? It's just one gold coin at most!"

The shop owner laughed and said, "Different places have different prices."

Li Ji whispered, "Pack it up. Niang Rong, I'll pay for it."

Niang Rong said unhappily, "It's agreed that I'll pay, so take it if you want it."

He casually slapped the two gold coins on the counter, and Niangrong's heart was bleeding.

Oh my god, it’s gone before I even have time to warm it up. I shouldn’t have been so generous if I had known this.

Li Ji was so happy that she didn't notice the unnatural look on Niang Rong's face.

In her opinion, as the only daughter of the prime minister, she must be much richer than her. She has more than a dozen gold coins, let alone Niang Rong.

When Niangrong saw Li Ji was happy, her depression faded away.

At worst, I can find an opportunity and explode it to get a few gold coins.

Niangrong, who had no money, wandered around and felt bored.

She and Li Ji returned to Cheng Jiao's place, wondering if she could get Cheng Jiao to buy something for her.

Niang Rong saw Cheng Jiao still watching the girl spray fire with great interest, and muttered, "You still need kerosene, but Yan Lingji doesn't need anything, and she sprays much better than her. If you want to see it, go back to Xianyang."

Cheng Jiao said: "You are right, we can let Yan Lingji perform when the time comes."

Far away in Xianyang, Yan Lingji, who was reading Zhu Xian with great interest, suddenly sneezed.

I didn’t think too much about it, just took a sip of cold drink and continued watching.

Next to the graceful body, there were a lot of slightly rough papers with densely packed small words written on them.

Jingwei knelt in front of the desk, looking focused and calm, writing slowly and steadily.
