Zhang Xiaoyin was quite surprised, wondering why she wanted to give him a gift when they met each other for the first time. When she was about to politely refuse, she saw Wei Tingyan stretched out her palm, holding a green jade finger ring in her palm, and said with a smile:
"It's this gift. I wonder if Miss Zhang likes it?"
Zhang Xiaoyin glanced at it and blurted out: "This... seems to be the ring that my father originally wore on his hand, but it was stolen by a thief a year ago. Where did Miss Yan get it?"
Wei Tingyan had already suspected it, so she looked at Mu Yun and said, "Xiao Mu mentioned the finger-wrenching thing a few days ago, and also described the shape and characteristics in detail, so the little girl has been paying close attention to it recently. She just happened to catch up with the Shanghai market event, and many of her friends on the street
They all came to do business nearby, and by chance I bought this ring."
Zhang Xiaoyin hesitated for a moment, then took the ring and examined it carefully. Wei Tingyan had personally stolen the ring back then, so it couldn't be fake. After a moment, Zhang Xiaoyin nodded, pursed her lips and said with a smile: "It is indeed my father's lost property, no."
Thinking of the day we will see each other again."
"Although this thumb ring is not very valuable, my father wears it all the year round, so he naturally treasures it. Being able to find it this time has put an end to my father's heartache. Thank you Miss Yan for taking the trouble to search for it. I will repay you in the future."
"
Wei Tingyan gave up the favor and said with a smile: "Miss Zhang, you're so polite. It's just a matter of effort, don't worry too much."
Zhang Xiaoyin put away her finger and said tentatively with her bright eyes: "These are all friends of Mu Shaoxia and Miss Yan. Can you make some introductions to the little girl?"
Wei Tingyan naturally agreed, and Zhang Xiaoyin treated people with great courtesy. After getting acquainted with each other, they went to sit down in the tea shed.
Xiaolei suddenly remembered something and glanced at Kong Fang and said: "The white-faced guy said it right before. This time I participate in the sea market event. Of course I want to get money and treasures, but I also want to make friends with the world's heroes."
Wei Tingyan curled her lips and said leisurely: "Others are here to make friends with the heroes of the world, but you, Xiao Buhu, are different. I think you are here purely to make friends with the beauties in the world."
Xiao Lei was not ambiguous and said confidently: "What's wrong with befriending beauties? Haven't you heard that heroes have a hard time with beauties?"
Wei Tingyan was so angry that she couldn't help laughing, and Fang Ruxin couldn't help but keep her mouth shut. While they were chatting, another group of people came galloping on the official road.
The first rider was carrying a helmet and armor, with a Qinglong Yanyue Sword hanging on the victory hook. He was nine feet tall, unusually tall, and very powerful.
If you look at the face, you should be over 40 years old, with sharp eyebrows and tiger eyes, which can be called a dignified appearance. He has a long beard under his chin. If his complexion had not turned yellow, he would have looked like a red-faced Guan Gong. His eyes were full of energy.
The light appears, which shows that his cultivation is extraordinary and he is a master of both internal and external cultivation.
Immediately behind the yellow-faced general, there followed three carriages, all of which were gorgeously decorated and had the air of a noble prince.
There were ten personal escorts on both sides and behind the convoy, all of them were brave enough to work with other people.
Wei Tingyan looked at him clearly, her face changed instantly, she didn't even have time to say hello, she got up and ran away in a hurry.
Mu Yun and others were confused when they saw Kong Fang standing in front of Wei Tingyan and saying tepidly: "Little sister, there is no need to be too alarmed. It is Mrs. Yan and the second young master who are here."
Wei Tingyan was astonished and felt ashamed and annoyed. She stamped her feet and said angrily: "You are such a small hole, but you cheated on me and deliberately betrayed my alliance leader!"
Kong Fang bowed his head to the end, then coughed and said: "As the envoy of the Zunding Pavilion's Book Department, I must be loyal to the Pavilion Master and the Mistress. Please forgive me, Master."
Wei Tingyan smiled bitterly to herself, knowing that she could not hold Kong Fang, so when she was ignoring him, the three carriages had stopped.
The curtain of the second car was lifted, and a handsome man stepped out. He walked into the tea shed with steady steps, nodded to Xiao Lei and others, and then said directly to Wei Tingyan: "Little sister, there is no need to hide.
Yes, Aunt Yan is here to ask you a question, follow me there immediately."
I bet this handsome young man is none other than Ling Zhao - now he should be called by his lay name "Wei Tingzhao". He had always been plainly dressed before, but now that he has dressed up a little, he immediately looks as noble as a jade tree in a Chinese garden.
Wei Tingyan knew that it was a blessing or a curse, and that it was a curse that could not be avoided. She could only turn around and said, "Brother Zhao, is mom angry? Are you planning to teach me a lesson?"
Wei Tingzhao shook his head and said: "It's useless to speculate, just let me go."
This dear friend always cherished his words like gold. After saying that, he turned around and left. Wei Tingyan still wanted to wait, but Kong Fang stretched out his hand and said respectfully: "Please, little princess, don't keep Mrs. Yan waiting."
Wei Tingyan looked helpless and had no choice but to obey the order. Before leaving, she looked at Mu Yun. Although there were a thousand words in her eyes, she could not say them out.
When everyone saw Kong Fang and Wei Tingyan leaving, many of them were a little stunned. They only listened to Zhang Xiaoyin's nonchalant voice: "Little Princess? Zunding Pavilion? Could it be that Miss Yan is the apple of Prince Wei of Jinyang?"
Xiao Lei curled his lips and said: "Yes, that's why the little vixen is so arrogant and surnamed. He changed his body and dressed up as a noble man. He didn't even say hello to me. He is simply ungrateful."
Mu Yun felt uneasy, coughed and said, "Master Lei, don't be too harsh. Master Wei is nodding to us. It's just that he has responsibilities, so it's not good to say more."
Xiaolei's beautiful eyes squinted, and he said with half emotion and half self-deprecation: "Forget it, I am the prince after all, so I really can't force it."
Mu Yun was feeling sad when Zhu Fengyin and Shang Hongxiu approached side by side. Shang Hongxiu said warmly, "Don't worry too much, Xiao Mu. After all, this is my little sister's biological mother. She will definitely not deliberately embarrass her."
Mu Yun calmed down, nodded and said, "Miss Shenxiang is right, and I didn't expect that Brother Kong is the envoy of Zunding Pavilion. His position must be quite high."
Shang Hongxiu muttered: "Zunding Pavilion originated from the Confucius Gate. It consists of six departments: Rites, Music, Shooting, Yu, Shu, and Count. They are in charge of six envoys."
"I heard earlier that the head of the Book Department is an old scholar who is over seventy years old and doesn't even know martial arts at all. Now it seems that he has either resigned from old age and returned to his hometown, or he has traveled westward. As for Brother Kong, he is so young that he can sit here
When you wait for a high position and give up your family background, your own cultivation should not be underestimated."
Mu Yun mentally agreed, looked at the yellow-faced general and said, "This general has extraordinary weapons. Could it be that he is also one of the six commanders?"
Shang Hongxiu hummed and said, "Yes, this is the imperial envoy of Zunding Pavilion. His name is Zhan Guoxiong. When the Tatars besieged Jinyang, he made great contributions to the defense of the city."
"Later, the imperial court rewarded him for his merits and named him a third-rank general Zhaoyi. But for some unknown reason, he insisted on rejecting all the rewards, hung up his seal and gold, and left, and entered Zunding Pavilion as a servant as Baiding."
Mu Yun thought to himself that this was a maverick character. Even though he had left the army, he still displayed a murderous spirit. Zunding Pavilion and Jinyang Palace, I wonder what kind of fate it would bring to him?
