Chapter 013 Master Lian
Ever since they entered the Great Zhou territory, there has been no more estrangement between Sun Shaozong and Ruan Rong. They spend the whole day together chatting and talking about everything, and they are truly inseparable.
Ruan Rong was fine, as she was a young girl just beginning to fall in love, and as long as she could be with her lover day and night, she had nothing else to ask for.
But although Sun Shaozong looks "honest" on the surface, he is actually a man who has tasted meat before. How can he be willing to be a stupid monk who eats vegetarian food and chants Buddhist scriptures when he has a beautiful woman he loves?
Therefore, before he had even walked for three or five days , he had already deceived her little mouth and satisfied his sexual desire.
After some time, under the pretext of snuggling for warmth, he put his magic claws into Ruan Rong's arms, climbed up the mountains and searched the seas, in order to conquer the city.
When the three of them passed Yunnan and Guizhou, took Jingxiang, drifted down the Yangtze River, and arrived at Yangzhou City, except for the last "barrier", Sun Shaozong had already captured the entire territory of Ruan Rong.
It's not that he didn't want to break the last layer of window paper, but Ruan Rong was determined not to agree. She insisted on waiting until she established her position in front of the Sun family before she would completely entrust herself to him.
Anyway, starting from Yangzhou and heading north along the Grand Canal, it would only take a few months to reach the capital, so Sun Shaozong could afford to wait for this period of time - of course, he could not help but use sweet words to try to get some other benefits.
But early in the morning of that day.
Sun Shaozong knocked on Ruan Rong's door with the food in his hand. He saw her washing her tender white hands again and again, wishing she could rub off a layer of skin. The scene of her delicate hands playing with the shuttle last night suddenly appeared in his mind...
He couldn't help but chuckle a few times before he said seriously, "Rong'er, you rest in the inn first. I'll take Feng Xin to the pier to see if there's a suitable passenger ship. After noon, I'll take you to visit Yangzhou City."
As a time traveler, he naturally knew that women needed to be coaxed, so along the way, whenever he came across any scenic spots or historical sites, he would always take the initiative to accompany Ruan Rong to visit them.
By the way, he added some romantic touches and said some sweet words, which made Ruan Rong completely bewildered and lost in her mind, making her more and more convinced that she had made the right choice of her lover.
Hearing Sun Shaozong say that he was going out to do some business, Ruan Rong quickly put aside her embarrassment and stepped forward to help him straighten his collar while saying, "Yangzhou City doesn't have long legs, so you can go sightseeing anytime - let's book the ferry first, it's almost the end of November, so don't miss the New Year."
Sun Shaozong agreed casually, then took the opportunity to bite Ruan Rong's earlobe, which was as big as a silver ingot, and said a few shameless dirty words. Ruan Rong was so angry that she raised her hand to hit him, so he ran away with a laugh.
--Dividing line--
However, it can be said that Yangzhou City is indeed worthy of being a famous city throughout the ages. Along both sides of the river, carriages and horses are like dragons, boats are like shuttles, and the ups and downs of shouting are endless.
It was just after noon when dozens of flower boats came into shore one after another, unloading the gentry and wealthy guests who were stepping lightly but reluctant to leave.
What's more, the singing girl on the boat was leaning on the railing, flirting across the river, which made the tourists on both sides of the river salivate.
Those who were short of money just took the opportunity to satisfy their eyes and then hurried back to make a living; those who had quite a bit of spare money stood there and commented on each one, thinking about which one to go to for a good time in the evening.
When Sun Shaozong first became a policeman, he had to participate in several anti-prostitution operations a year and had long been tired of these prostitutes.
Now, let alone a few singing girls flirting across the river, even if they all took off their clothes and danced on poles on a boat, he wouldn't be moved at all - if they jumped into the river together, he would probably want to watch.
But Feng Xin was different. He first lived in Qinglin Mansion as a solitary for several months, and then acted as a light bulb all the way. Every day he saw Sun Shaozong and Ruan Rong being intimate, and he had long been filled with anger.
Now, looking at these gorgeously dressed singers, his steps became slower and slower, but his eyes moved quickly, wandering only to the waists, legs, hips and breasts of those singers.
"Look at what you have accomplished!"
Sun Shaozong kicked him in the buttocks and scolded him with a smile: "Hurry up and put away your wicked mind. It won't be too late for you to have fun after we hire a boat."
Feng Xin was overjoyed when he heard this. Just as he was about to thank the lord for his mercy, he heard someone behind him suddenly shout, "Is that the second son of the Sun family ?"
Then another voice came: "Brother Shao Zong, wait for me!"
How could Sun Shaozong have imagined that he would run into an 'acquaintance' in this smoky place?
Subconsciously, I looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young man wearing a brocade hat, a mink coat and a moon-white long gown approaching from behind. Before he even got close, his fluent Beijing dialect filled my ears: "It's Erlang! I haven't seen you for more than a year. You've grown even bigger. I almost didn't recognize you just now."
Sun Shaozong looked at the man carefully and found that he was tall and straight, with a handsome face and a pair of peach blossom eyes. He was exactly the romantic leader born into a wealthy family. Seeing this, a name popped up in his mind: Jia Lian, Master Lian.
Jia Lian was born in Rongguo Mansion, and was one of the four kings and eight dukes. Because Rongguo Mansion and Sun family were old friends, when the Sun family was down and out, Sun Shaozu often took Sun Shaozong to Rongguo Mansion to beg for money, so he was quite familiar with Jia Lian.
Remembering this person's identity, Sun Shaozong also laughed and said, "It turns out to be Second Brother Lian. Why did you come to Yangzhou instead of enjoying your leisure time in the capital? Did you anger your sister-in-law and get kicked out ?"
As far as he could remember, Mr. Lian seemed to be henpecked, so he just made fun of it.
"Bah! Even if that woman had the guts, she wouldn't dare chase me away!"
Jia Lian snorted disdainfully, then his expression became a little more serious, and he said, "Actually, my uncle unfortunately passed away while serving in Yangzhou. His family has dwindled down, and he only has an immature cousin. So my old lady asked me to come here to help take care of my uncle's affairs."
As he spoke, he slapped his thigh exaggeratedly and complained, "Over the past six months, I have traveled back and forth between Beijing, Yangzhou, and Suzhou several times before I finally got things done. I almost broke my legs from running!"
Without waiting for Sun Shaozong to respond, he asked curiously, "By the way, Erlang, didn't you go to work in the country of Qianxiang? Why did you come to Yangzhou?"
Although the two families could barely be called old friends, when they were in the capital, Jia Lian's relationship with the Sun brothers was only superficial - the fact that they are so close now is probably due to the excitement of meeting old friends in a foreign land.
As he remembered, the Rongguo Mansion had helped the Sun brothers, and Sun Shaozong didn't want to neglect him, so he found a nearby teahouse and briefly told them what had happened in Qianxiang Kingdom.
All I could hear was Master Lian smacking his lips in amazement, saying, "Erlang has really grown up now. He has done such a big thing that even the emperor was alarmed."
When Sun Shaozong said that he was ordered to return to Beijing and was preparing to look for a passenger ship heading north.
Jia Lian immediately took on the responsibility and said, "I don't think it's a big deal. You don't have to look for it. There's plenty of space on my second brother's boat. What's the big deal if there are more of you? Oh, don't stay in any inn. Just stay at my uncle's office for a few days. When I've dealt with it here, we'll set off together to return to the capital!"
Sun Shaozong made a few excuses, but seeing that he couldn't refuse the invitation, he had no choice but to agree.
