Lu Zhen is planning to take advantage of Ning Yuan, and Jiang Xue Ning is also planning to take advantage of him.

She asked someone to keep an eye on Ning Yuan's whereabouts and discovered that he went to Yuhuatai every afternoon to drink tea and listen to music these days.

She asked someone to step carefully, changed into men's clothes, and went to Yuhuatai to arrest someone.

I asked for a quiet private room in Yuhua Terrace and had a chance to relax for a while. The sound of opera came in through the window.

Halfway through the tea, Bai Yu walked in and said, "Someone is here."

Jiang Xue Ning leaned back in her chair and said, "Find an opportunity to approach him secretly and tell him that I want to invite him for tea."

"Okay, wait."

Bai Yu did not block people in the teahouse, as it would be too conspicuous. He hid in a big tree in the backyard, standing high and seeing far.

While watching the wild mandarin ducks being affectionate with relish, he was also distractedly looking at the toilet.

If you drink too much tea, you will definitely go to the toilet.

Sure enough, not long after, he saw Ning Yuan leaving. He raised his eyebrows, came down from the tree, and blocked the man outside the toilet.

Ning Yuan touched the knife at his waist and looked at him warily, "What can I do for you, brother?"

"Our prince invites you to have tea, room number three."

Bai Yu finished speaking and disappeared without waiting for his answer. Ning Yuan was stunned for a moment before he realized who the prince he was talking about was.

He continued to drink tea and listen to music as if nothing had happened. After the music ended and everyone had left, he walked towards Room No. 3.

As soon as I reached the door, it was pushed open from the inside.

Wu Sa stood at the door holding a knife, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "City Lord, please."

The woman in front of the tea table, dressed in men's clothes and with a cold expression, raised her eyes to him in the mist and said, "Sit down."

He walked over and sat down, slapped the knife at his waist on the table, and said bluntly and unceremoniously, "The Ye family is finished, is it the Lu family's turn now?"

Having seen how she took down the Ye family without bloodshed, he did not dare to underestimate her at all.

Jiang Xue Ning picked up the kettle and poured him a cup of tea. She said without moving her eyebrows, "Do you think the Lu family should be finished?"

He took a sip of tea and said nothing.

He came back for revenge. Of course, he hoped that the Lu family would be destroyed. But there was a big difference between whether it was destroyed in his hands or in the hands of the woman in front of him.

"In any case, I don't want the prince to get involved in the Lu family."

This was also an indirect statement. Jiang Xue Ning smiled and said, "I invited you to have tea today, not to discuss this with you."

Ning Yuan stared at her, still keeping a high level of vigilance, "What does the prince want to talk about?"

"With the current situation in the world, do you think Cangnan can stay out of it? Besides, you are so young and promising, you must have ambitions."

She leaned back in her chair and said this calmly, as lazy and unfocused as a cat.

He did not dare to let his guard down. He was indeed good at manipulating people's hearts. One sentence pointed directly to his heart. He was indeed ambitious.

Of course, he hopes that Cangnan will get better and better. He is young and strong, so he naturally does not want to stop here.

"I don't know if anyone has ever told you that the prince is a very dangerous person."

She lowered her eyes and smiled, "Most of the time, I'm easy to get along with."

"I am a rough man and I don't know how to beat around the bush." ​​Ning Yuan said bluntly, "If the prince wants to win me over, then show your sincerity."

He didn't want to get confused with her here, otherwise it would give him a headache.

Jiang Xue Ning sat up and said solemnly, "Since you are so direct, I won't beat around the bush."

She took out a plan and pushed it to him, "This is my plan for the future business development of Xiangchu, you can take a look."

Cangnan is a bitter cold place, and what it needs most is to develop commerce and agriculture. He lowered his head and read it carefully. The more he read, the more fascinated he became. For a moment, the room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

When he turned to the last page, he read it over and over again, because that page was obviously a plan for Cangnan.

His heart was moved. He closed his eyes to suppress the excitement in his heart, and repeatedly reminded himself that there is no such thing as a free lunch.

"What's the price?"

"If Cangnan becomes part of Xiangchu, then what Xiangchu has, Cangnan will naturally have, and Xiangchu can help with what Cangnan doesn't have." Jiang Xue Ning tempted softly, "Cangnan will have to choose a side sooner or later, and Xiangchu is a good choice, unless you want to dominate the world."

He wanted to fight, but he knew it was impossible. Although the people of Cangnan were fierce, they were still not good enough in the world.

He rose to prominence in the coldest and poorest place in Cangnan. The brothers who followed him suffered a lot. He promised that he would let them live a good life.

"Your Majesty, don't you care about the Lu family's affairs?"

"The Lu family is the Lu family, and you are you." Jiang Xue Ning said very principledly, "If you choose me, I can let you handle the Lu family's affairs yourself."

She doesn't necessarily need a Lu family, as long as it doesn't get in her way.

Ning Yuan sighed in his heart, in addition to having extraordinary means, those who can accomplish great things also have broad minds.

He said very carefully, "Thank you for the tea, Your Majesty, but this matter is of great importance. I have to go back and discuss it with others and consider it carefully. I can't give you an answer right away."

"That's as it should be. I'll wait for your reply."

Ning Yuan drank the tea in the cup in one gulp and reluctantly returned the plan to her.

She took it and said with a smile, "This is just a part of it, not the core."

Ning Yuan's eyes lit up and he forced himself to turn around and say goodbye, otherwise he was really afraid that he would agree on the spot.

After the others left, Jiang Xue Ning said, "This character is really nothing like Lu Zhen. He is quite straightforward and courageous."

Bai Yu leaned against the door and stroked his chin, saying, "I heard that there will be an Oiran performing on stage tonight. Since we are here, let's take a look before we go back."

"can."

It's a rare opportunity for her to come out, so she wants to relax.

She used silver to buy a way to a good spot on the second floor of this den of brothel. Sitting in a small cubicle, she could clearly see the performance on the stage below.

Bai Yu was so fascinated by the show that he refused to give any reward at all.

Unlike the girl next to her, who threw money around like a lavish gesture, after the performance, the courtesan even came up to the booth and toasted.

"Tsk tsk, I don't know which rich kid is so generous. The gold content of this wine is too high."

They sat for a while longer, listening to a lingering piano piece. Jiang Xuening stood up and said, "Let's go out and find a restaurant to eat."

I pushed the door open and the person next door also pushed the door open to go out.

The handsome young man in fine clothes and handsome face was surrounded by girls on both sides, his pair of peach blossom eyes were stained with drunkenness and the corners of his eyes were red.

Jiang Xue Ning appraised her from beginning to end and found that this beauty was indeed worthy of being a playboy.

Jing Yu was caught off guard by the collision and was stunned for a moment. Based on his experience, he instantly recognized Jiang Xue Ning, a woman disguised as a man.

His pair of peach blossom eyes were shining with smiles, and he greeted her calmly, "It's true that we meet everywhere in life, and the beauty still smiles in the spring breeze."

What a mess! Jiang Xue Ning withdrew her gaze. She ignored him and walked past him coldly and went downstairs.

"Beauty, you are so heartless."
