Capítulo 1718: Chapter 1721: Opportunity
The rchants ca and went incessantly, and Jian Shiqing led his horse, walking through Qingshui Town.
Though he wasn’t sure how to find Jin Luoyin, he still rode his swift horse here.
“Hey, Brother Jian, Brother Jian?” Amidst the bustling crowd, he couldn’t tell who was calling him.
Jian Shiqing turned around and saw Jie Yi.
“Young Master Jie?” Jian Shiqing was quite surprised, he hadn’t expected to et Jie Yi here.
Jie Yi smiled and said, “What a coincidence to run into you here. Brother Jian, are you here in Qingshui Town for business negotiations?”
Jie Yi was gradually taking over the business left by his mother, Miss Du; he chose the path of comrce. anwhile, his two younger brothers pursued official careers.
Compared to Gu Youyou, Miss Du was truly a winner in life, experiencing sweetness after the hardship. Over the years, she and Jie Zhonglin had several children together: three sons and two daughters.
Jian Shiqing nodded and said, “Yes, just ca to see the business around here!”
Luckily, Jie Yi provided him a way out, allowing him to take a stroll around his own business venues in Qingshui Town, which was better than having a wasted trip on horseback.
“Oh, is that so? Then I won’t disturb you, it’s getting late, I still have to head to the Ningwang Residence to et Yue Qiulin as we agreed!”
“Yue Qiulin? The Princely Heir of the Lingnan Marquis Residence?”
Jie Yi laughed, “Indeed? Who else with the surna Yue could visit the Ningwang Residence except Yue Qiulin?”
In truth, Jian Shiqing’s main interest wasn’t in the Princely Heir of the Lingnan Marquis Residence, Yue Qiulin, but rather in envy of them being able to go to Ningwang Residence.
Yet with his status, what excuse could he use to visit Ningwang Residence?
Jian Shiqing pondered for a mont and suddenly said, “I’ve long heard of the distinguished reputation of Princely Heir Yue Qiulin, and I greatly wish to et him. However, Ningwang Residence isn’t a place that commoners like can visit. It’s quite unfortunate! I wonder if Young Master Jie knows when Princely Heir might be leaving Ningwang Residence, so I could wait for him in Qingshui Town for a few days without any problem!”
Jie Yi wasn’t aware of Yue Qiulin’s fa but was amused by the admiration of the slightly proud Jian Shiqing.
Without much thought, he simply laughed and said, “Why wait for Yue Qiulin in Qingshui Town? You can co with to Ningwang Residence as a guest.”
“How could I? I’m just a commoner…”
Jie Yi patted his shoulder and said, “Don’t worry, the Princess is easygoing. She herself is involved in comrce and won’t trouble you!”
Jian Shiqing was overjoyed inside, but showed no signs of it. Suppressing his excitent, he led his horse and followed Jie Yi to Ningwang Residence.
…
This was, in fact, his second ti visiting Ningwang Residence. He was too young the first ti and had forgotten it.
Watching the plum blossoms gradually wither, he thought to himself that another spring was arriving. Soon, the villagers of Lotus Village would comnce farming.
Soon he would et Jin Luoyin again, and he felt a bit anxious.
With his current status, how should he act when he ets her again?
“Young Master Yi, please co inside. Princely Heir Yue has been waiting for a long ti!”
The person who received them wasn’t from Ningwang Residence but soone Yue Qiulin had brought along, waiting by the gate for Jie Yi.
Jian Shiqing followed Jie Yi, led by the maid, through a quiet corridor, walking a long way. After winding paths, he finally saw a courtyard illuminated by lanterns.
The sounds of n and won laughing and joking could be heard from inside, and Jian Shiqing suddenly stiffened.
“Qiulin, you idiot, you still can’t beat .”
“What’s to be proud of? The next ti I’m here, I’ll fight you for three hundred rounds.”
