Inside the antiquated study, the decorations were gorgeous and unique, and the layout of the room was arranged in an orderly fashion. The most eye-catching thing was that the bookshelf was filled with all kinds of books. However, Hong Jingtao didn't like to read books. Under the heavens, there were so many books that he wouldn't be able to finish them all in his lifetime. If he could read them every day, wouldn't he die of exhaustion? Therefore, so many of the bookshelves are decorative, is for others to see. Naturally, there were people who came here every day to clean up the dust, so it gave others the illusion that no one was interested in the place.

Of course, it wasn't that he didn't need to read books, but he preferred those books that could be learned to use quickly. For example, Jin Jiabei, Sun Ziyi's Thirty-Six Stratagems.

As you can see, I read very hard. For example, if it's thirty-six strategies to borrow a person's hand to kill, I would be able to create such a situation from nothing. I can use this to create something from nothing, it's pretty good at picking up girls. This was the main point. He had to take the exam in the future and draw a mark first. It really has a lot of knowledge. If there's a chance, we can spar together.

It was early summer now, and the mosquitoes were growing daily, which was very annoying. Usually, they would light incense to drive away the insects and have the effect of calming the heart and calming the mind. As such, the air was filled with the light and delicate fragrance of incense, causing one's nose to tremble.

By the time Zhao Jiannan and the rest arrived, there were already quite a number of people seated there. Sun Ji and his son, Tong Meng, Emissary Wang Right, and Wang Tie-jun were all present. However, they didn't see their young master, Hong Jinglang.

Sun Ji's sideburns were still quite conspicuous. He was holding a teacup and chatting with Wang Tijun. When he saw Zhao Jiannan enter, he greeted him with a smile. The people beside him also invited Zhao Jiannan and Zhang Su to sit down and watch the tea.

Sun Fanglin saw Zhao Jiannan and Yang Xiandie walking over together with a strange expression on her face. However, she didn't say anything under the watchful eyes of the crowd. He felt a little upset in his heart.

Right Envoy Wang Xiuxian saw that most of the people had arrived, and lightly coughed twice. When everyone's attention was focused on him, he laughed and said, "Just now, Young Noble Hong ordered us to depart for Yangzhou today. Now he has a few things to deal with, so I'll tell you what he means. "

Although everyone knew that the trip to Yangzhou was inevitable, they still felt that it was a bit strange. They couldn't help but ask Wang Xiuxian, "Envoy Wang, isn't it a bit too sudden to go to Yangzhou today?"

Wang Xiuxian looked around at the crowd. Seeing that there was nothing abnormal, he maintained a smile and said, "I can understand what you are feeling, but I was a bit too anxious." However, a few major events had just occurred in Yangzhou two days ago, so the urgent matter had to leave immediately. As far as I know, the remnant evildoer of Martial Law's public enemy, the Heavenly Execution Alliance, has already made a ruckus in Yangzhou, yet they actually still dare to kidnap our famed wife, Qin Yue'er. Fortunately, the people from the Flowing Wind Pavilion stepped forward and rescued the young madame. Therefore, we must bring Qin Yue'er back to Yangzhou this time. We can't make the same mistake again. Give those outlaws an opportunity! "

When everyone heard of this sudden incident, they couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. The remnants of the Sky Execution Alliance simply consisted of fearless dogs that were extremely vicious. The viciousness of their actions was truly shocking. If they really captured Qin Yue'er, it might cause a huge uproar. Right now, everyone in the entire world wished that they could be killed. The remnants of the Sky Execution Alliance were a little too crazy and vicious.

When Zhao Jiannan heard this, he was greatly shocked. He anxiously asked, "Is Qin Yue'er alright?" "When did this happen?"

Wang Xiuxian was surprised to see him so nervous, but he soon understood. Back then, Qin Yue'er had almost killed herself in front of him. Kind words comforted her, "She... is not a big deal, right now she is staying in the Pingyuan Palace. Little Zhao, you don't have to worry about it. This happened only two days ago, and the remnants of the Sky Execution Alliance were currently missing, lurking around. Therefore, Yangzhou was destined to not be peaceful recently. For the sake of Young Master Hong's safety, you must be extra careful and never act rashly. If you encounter any unusual circumstances, you must report it in time! Otherwise, if anything happens, we won't be able to report it to the higher ups! "

Everyone felt that his words made sense, but they were still unable to come to their senses. Last year, the Jin'ling Paradise Pavilion experienced a great calamity, and the remnants of the Heaven's Execution Alliance plundered all of their gold treasury and escaped. They have been at large ever since. He did not expect that he would dare to appear in Yangzhou and stir up trouble for Qin Yue'er. When he thought of that legendary Old Uncle Wu of the alliance master Wu of the Heaven's Execution Squad, who had appeared out of nowhere without a trace, he couldn't help but feel goosebumps all over his body.

Zhao Jiannan thought to himself that the other party was an extremely vicious and lawless individual. It was truly a great fortune for Qin Yue'er to be able to escape from their hands even if it meant death. It was just that, why was fate so unfair to her, repeatedly bringing about calamities? She was just a little bit away from death, and it was hard to imagine how she managed to survive. For a moment, her nose was sore, and she almost shed tears. She could no longer calm down, and now, she wished she could fly to Yangzhou to see if she was safe and sound.

Beside him, Yang Xiandie noticed that his expression was a little abnormal. She focused and was shocked to see that Zhao Jiannan's eyes were rolling with tears. However, he had always been a patient and patient person, so he had to force himself not to shed tears. His mind was in a trance as he gently reached out and tightly held his hand.

Zhao Jiannan calmed himself down with a wave of her hand and looked at her. Noticing the deep concern in her eyes, he wrinkled his nose and forced a smile, indicating that he was fine. He was just a bit excited.

Little did she know that this scene was witnessed by Sun Fanglin. Looking at the two of them staring at each other in confusion, she felt extremely upset. She felt as if her heart was about to leave her own body. He coughed loudly beside them.

A clap of thunder could be heard on the flat ground. This was how Yang Xiandie felt right now. She wasn't deaf, so she clearly heard Sun Fanglin's cough. For some reason, she felt upset and quickly withdrew her hand, in case someone misunderstood her.

Wang Xiuxian stopped and asked with a frown, "Is there a problem?"

Everyone turned a deaf ear to him and remained silent. The atmosphere became tense and awkward, but no one dared to say anything.

Wang Xiuxian glanced at the crowd and saw that they were all quiet and looking at him. Then, he slowly said, "This time we are going to Yangzhou for a heavy responsibility. You must remember not to be careless." Even now, the remnants of the Sky Execution Alliance were still at large, and the location of that large amount of gold was still unknown. Young Master Hong had already said that if there was a chance, he would find that batch of stolen gold. As far as I know, the leader of the remnants of the Sky Execution Alliance is called Wu Zang Yuan. He is a samurai warrior and has his freedom controlled by Li Guangling. I hope you will have a chance to find this man and pry the gold out of his mouth. After this was done, there would be heavy rewards. But do not alert the enemy, for there is a leak. If not, when the higher-ups started to blame them, they would not be able to bear the consequences. Do you understand? "
