"It's a bit tricky." Zhu Yanxi fell into deep thought.
"Did you come to Shengjing alone this time?" Song Qingshu asked.
"The people from the Ming Dynasty wanted to protect me, but I didn't agree and left them at Blackwood Cliff." Zhu Yanxi answered.
"He's all alone. This is going to be difficult. It looks like directly snatching him from the King's Mansion won't work. I'll have to outsmart him." Song Qingshu paced back and forth, his mind in chaos.
"Let's think of a way on our own first. When we have some ideas, we can discuss it together." Zhu Yanxi said after a moment of silence.
Song Qingshu sensed that she wanted to leave, so he quickly asked, "Where do you live? How can I contact you?"
Zhu Yanxi hesitated for a moment, but she still didn't tell him where she lived. She pointed to the yard outside and said, "If you want to find me, just hang a yellow silk on the tree in the yard, and I will come to find you."
Not long after Zhu Yanxi left, Zhang Kangnian hurriedly ran in and said with a strange expression, "The girl from last night came again."
Song Qingshu's heart moved. He asked Zhang Kangnian to invite her in. Watching the beautiful Nan Lan walk into the room, a proud smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"What are you smiling at?" Nan Lan felt uncomfortable being stared at by him.
"Looking at Mrs. Tian's rosy and beautiful face, I feel proud and fulfilled. Of course, I want to smile," Song Qingshu answered.
"What are you proud of …" Nan Lan suddenly came to her senses. She blushed and spat, "Now you know how to call me Mrs. Tian. I don't know who was pretending to be crazy last night."
"It's all for the sake of kissing my wife." Song QingShu reached out his hand to touch her face, but Nan Lan's expression changed, and she took a few steps back.
"I've already given you what you wanted. I hope you can keep your promise and help me save Guinong." Nan Lan's expression was very complicated.
"Don't worry, I'm not a heartless person." Song Qingshu shook his head. "Do you know where Tian Guinong is being held?"
Nan Lan was pondering over the meaning of his words and subconsciously replied, "He was originally locked up in the city's prison, but recently, I don't know where he's been locked up. I've asked many people, but no one is willing to tell me. Yesterday, I obtained news that Gui Nong seemed to have suffered an extremely inhumane punishment. I was worried about his life, yet I didn't know exactly what punishment it was, so I …. "
"That's why you were so eager to save your husband and let me take advantage of you?" Looking at Nan Lan's angry expression, Song Qingshu quickly said, "Don't worry, I will immediately send someone to investigate and rescue him."
"Many thanks, Young Master." The moment Nan Lan said this, she immediately froze. She had already given up her innocence, was there still a need to thank him?
Sure enough, Song Qingshu laughed when he heard this. "You don't have to thank me. Last night was the deposit. Madam will pay me the other half after the matter is done. Is that okay?"
"Last night …. Wasn't it enough?" Nan Lan's legs still trembled when she recalled the scene last night, and her cheeks blushed. Although she had been married for many years and had even given birth to a child? Even if she added up all the children she had in the past few years, it still couldn't compare to last night's … nonsense.
"Of course it wasn't enough. Even if I stayed with Madam every day, it still wouldn't be enough." Song Qingshu was concerned about the rich Extreme Yin Qi in her body. It would be too much of a waste to waste it. Besides, although Nan Lan's brain was a little shallow, from the point of view of a lover, she was a woman among women. Last night, she had already enjoyed everything. The gentleness that was as gentle as water could soften a well-tempered steel. Naturally, she wanted more.
Although Nan Lan was a little embarrassed and angry, when she heard his sincere praise and the infatuated expression on his face, she still felt a little happy in her heart. However, in the end, she couldn't bring herself to agree to such an absurd request. She could only say something specious, "Let's talk about it after you rescue Gui Nong."
"Alright!" Looking at the dignified young lady before him, who was a little angry, a little bashful, and a little charming, and there was even a hint of intense lust between her brows, Song Qingshu felt extremely delighted. "Could it be that Madam has returned for this matter?"
"Otherwise, why do you think I came back to look for you?" Even though Nan Lan had only casually rolled her eyes at him, the amorous expression on her face still left Song Qingshu in awe.
Song Qingshu smiled and said, "A day as husband and wife means a hundred days of devotion. I thought that Madam had specially come to reminisce about the past on account of last night's kindness."
"Despicable!" Even though Nan Lan said those words, she couldn't bring out the slightest bit of anger in her heart. Instead, she felt a taboo excitement. Recalling how she had been tormented by him last night, she hurriedly left the moment she managed to escape his clutches. Only when she returned to the residence did she realize that she hadn't told him about her husband's matter. She tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. In the end, she decided to make another trip here.
"Madam, if you have time in the future, feel free to visit the Four Quarters Embassy," Song Qingshu said.
Nan Lan hurriedly shook her head. "I won't be coming here again." With that said, she walked out. When she reached the door of the room, she paused. She didn't turn around and only said softly, "If Young Master has news of Gui Nong, you can come to this Concubine's residence." After saying those words, her ears turned red. She couldn't understand why she would be so daring. She hurriedly left as though she was fleeing.
Song Qingshu was taken aback. He couldn't hold back the smile on his face any longer and burst into laughter. Hearing his laughter, Nan Lan ran even faster.
"Zhang Kangnian, Zhao Qixian, take your subordinates and search around the capital. Find out where a person named Tian Guinong is being held. He is the Sect Master of the Heavenly Dragon Sect. Previously, he was an expert of the King's Mansion. He should be able to find some clues. If necessary, contact the imperial court's spies in Shengjing. "After Nan Lan left, Song QingShu called the two of them in and instructed them.
"Yes, we will do our best." The two of them agreed and took their leave.
"I remember now. That woman seems to be Tian Guinong's wife?" When the two of them felt that they were far enough away from Song Qingshu, they began to whisper to each other.
"Isn't that so? From the looks of it, she is here to beg Lord Song to save her husband."
"Hehe, Lord Song is truly fortunate to be able to play with such a beauty. Look at that woman, when she walks, the shape of her legs seems to have changed. Our Lord Song is truly unfathomable." His tone was filled with envy.
"If I had the chance to play with such a beautiful woman, I would be satisfied if I didn't make her unable to get off the bed."
"Keep bragging. Are you really that amazing?"
"Hehe, you are exaggerating … If that bastard Tian Guinong knew that he was only saved because of his wife's body, do you think he would still be willing to be saved?"
"Why wouldn't he be willing? Compared to his own life, what is his wife's body worth? In any case, she is not a virgin. She can wash herself clean."
"Brother Zhang, you are truly knowledgeable!"
… …
Song Qingshu was meditating in his room. He felt that his limbs and bones were all at ease. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and looked outside the door: "What is it?"
"Reporting to Lord, Lord Zhang from Shengjing has sent someone to invite Lord to his mansion for a banquet." A guard replied.
"Lord Zhang? Which Lord Zhang? "Song Qingshu asked curiously. Did he know any official with the surname Zhang here?
"It is the left commander of Shengjing's Valiant Cavalry Battalion, Lord Zhang Zhaozhong." The guard replied.
"Zhang Zhaozhong?" Song Qingshu remembered how Zhang Zhaozhong spoke up for him at the banquet last night. Zhang Zhaozhong was even willing to lend him his sword to fight against the enemy. Zhang Zhaozhong was a far cry from the sinister and ruthless villain in his impression. "Okay, I will go immediately."
Song Qingshu remembered that he owed him a favor during the banquet last night. If he did not go, he was afraid that he would make an enemy out of thin air. It was really unwise. In addition, he was curious about what Zhang Zhaozhong wanted to say to him. Secondly, he wanted to take the opportunity to inquire about the information of Bao Prince's residence. He wanted to see if he could find any inspiration to think of a way to save Xia Qingqing.
When Song Qingshu followed the housekeeper of Zhang Zhaozhong's mansion to the Zhang mansion, a window on the street was slightly opened. A beautiful young woman silently watched his figure and said with a faint smile: "Is this the Song Qingshu who once injured the leader? I see that he looks so weak. I'm afraid he looks more like a scholar than a master. "
This beautiful woman looked to be only twenty-three or twenty-four years old. When she smiled slightly, she was overflowing with charm and was incomparably gorgeous. Her voice was crisp and charming. It was extremely pleasant to listen to. However, the few men behind her seemed to turn a blind eye to her and turned a deaf ear to her. They lowered their eyebrows and looked submissive. They had a respectful look and did not dare to show a trace of strange expression. If Song Qingshu saw this, he would definitely sigh and say, "Such a beauty in front of you, but you don't know how to appreciate it. It's simply a reckless waste of God's gifts."
"Madam, according to the report from the brothers in the cult, yesterday he made Hong Li's number one expert, True Jade, admit defeat the moment he made a move. I'm afraid his martial arts is even higher than what the leader saw that day." A man around forty years old dressed like a scholar opened his mouth and said.
"Oh?" The beautiful woman sank into deep thought. "True Jade, that ox nose, although is greedy and lecherous, his martial arts are indeed not bad. Even if the leader's martial arts are higher than his, I'm afraid there's still a limit. Is that Song Qingshu's martial arts really that high?" There was a trace of fear in her voice.
In fact, this was completely a beautiful misunderstanding. Song Qingshu just happened to be proficient in the Five Mountains Sword Technique, and True Jade happened to use the Mount Tai Sword Technique. Naturally, he was restrained everywhere. In fact, with his martial arts, if he didn't use the Mount Tai Sword Technique, he would have no problem fighting for a hundred or eighty moves. Previously, Song Qingshu had defeated the head of the Zhen Wu Monastery, Taoist Chong Xu, and the head of the Five Mountains Alliance, Zuo Lenchan with one sword strike. Furthermore, he had single-handedly injured the heads of the Red Flower Society in the imperial palace. He had faintly gained the reputation of being the number one expert of the Qing court. However, this was too illusory in the end. For this group of people, they didn't have a direct impression of him. Instead, it wasn't as shocking as when the leader was once injured by him. Now that they saw True Jade, who had run amok in Liaodong for more than ten years, was unexpectedly defeated by him so easily, they couldn't help but overestimate Song Qingshu's strength.
The room fell into a moment of silence. The scholar from earlier opened his mouth and said, "Madam, there's no need to worry. We're only here to investigate what intentions Hong Li has towards our cult. there shouldn't be any conflict of interest with him."
