Before Zheng Xuan could send the news that Zhong Yi was in Jinyang out of the capital, Xiao Wanlu died. Zheng Xuan escaped from Jinyang before the city was closed. He fled all the way to Xinzhou, then he breathed a sigh of relief, turned his horse's head, and gritted his teeth. Two days later, He Ran arrived in Pingyao. The place where she met Zhong Yin was the Pingyao County Government Office. He Ran was very curious as to how Zhong Yi would appear in front of her. She arrived in Pingyao in the morning, while Zhong Yi arrived in the afternoon. In He Ran's imagination, Zhong Yi would dress up as a farmer, a hawker, a scholar, or even a businessman like Wu Dongming and his son when they went to Pingyang, and even wear a human skin mask. Before today, He Ran didn't know Zhong Yi. She had never even investigated Zhong Yi carefully. Because this person disappeared shortly after she entered Beijing. Therefore, He Ran was slightly surprised when she saw Zhong Yi standing in front of her.
The Zhong Yi in front of her was dressed in a bright red flying fish suit, with an embroidered spring knife hanging from her waist, and she just had the words "Jinyiwei" written on her forehead. He Ran smiled, this Zhong Yi was a bit interesting. "This dress suits Mr. Zhong very well." He Ran has always been a person who doesn't hesitate to praise. She didn't compliment him mindlessly, Zhong Yi was handsome, and the bright red color made his lips red and his teeth white, and he was full of energy. Zhong Yi smiled and said: "Master He, we meet again." "Yes, I was able to successfully inherit Jinghong Tower, thanks to Mr. Zhong's justice." He Ran said. There was still a smile on Zhong Yi's lips, but there was a bit more bitterness in the smile. Back then, on the order of the Empress Dowager, he went to Zhending to investigate Jinghong Tower, and unexpectedly met the new head of Jinghong Tower, a little girl who had not yet grown hair. That was just last year, but when I think about it, it feels like a lifetime ago. At that time, he didn't know anything.
He Ran caught the fleeting strangeness in Zhong Yi's eyes. She was a little confused. Why was this Zhong Yi so strange?
He Ran didn't beat around the bush and asked directly: "I wonder why Mr. Zhong asked someone to meet?" Zhong Yi looked at her with a heavy gaze. "Zhong wants to use Jinyang City to trade with Master He." He Ran asked: "Who does Mr. Zhong want to replace?" "Feng Tan, Feng Jieying." Zhong Yi said. He Ran smiled and shook her head, leaving no room for negotiation: "No change." "In the heart of Master He, Feng Jieying is more important than the huge Jinyang City?" Zhong Yi did not give up and was still trying to induce He Ran. He Ran said with a smile: "I want Jinyang City, I can take it from you, why should I trade it with Mr. Feng? Mr. Zhong can conquer a city with just a few dozen people, can't I?" " Zhong Yi said: "Master He is a hero among women. He is brave and resourceful, so he certainly has this ability. However, Master He has not taken down Jinyang City so far. As far as Zhong knows, He Da did not take down Jinyang City." When the great master and Wu Dongming formed an alliance, they agreed to conquer Jinyang City personally. After so long, Wu Dongming has conquered a large area of the river, but the great master He has not taken action against Jinyang. Now Zhong Being able to defeat Jinyang for Master He, and being willing to do it with both hands, can save Master He some energy, and Zhong only has a small request, so why not Master He? ?” He Ran applauded: "I didn't know before that Master Zhong, who is the governor of Jinyiwei, is not only very good at martial arts, but also has a good eloquence."
Zhong Yi smiled: "Master He is a compliment." "It's not a compliment, Mr. Zhong is too humble. I want to learn from Mr. Zhong and do what others like. It's a pity that Mr. Zhong thought wrong, and he made too many mistakes. ." He Ran said. "What's wrong?" Zhong Yi was startled. He Ran said: "Master Zhong, the reason why I haven't taken action against Jinyang is because in my opinion, there is nothing worth taking action in Jinyang. I have got everything I want, Jinyang." The city is right there, and I can take it whenever I want. But now I have more important things to do and more territory to grab, so I put Jinyang aside for the time being. But Mr. Zhong wants to use an item that I think is temporarily idle in exchange for me. Of course I will not agree. " Zhong Yi's attention was focused on what He Ran said, "There is nothing left in Jinyang that is worthy of my action" and "I got everything I wanted." He Ran got something in Jinyang, so much so that after getting it, she didn't even bother to fight Jinyang. Zhong Yi couldn't figure out what He Ran was talking about for a moment, but he understood one thing. He did something that seemed completely meaningless to He Ran. Whether he thought he had surprisingly captured Jinyang City, or whether he used Jinyang City in exchange for Feng Jieying from He Ran, in He Ran's view, it was all meaningless. Zhong Yi's self-confidence was hit. Zhong Yi smiled and shook his head. If it were him in the past, he would definitely feel that this was a great shame and humiliation. Zhong Yi was successful as a young man and had everything going smoothly. He would never allow himself to bow his head in front of a young woman. But he was not. Ever since he had that dream, Zhong Yi knew that he was no longer the same person as before. What he wanted to do was just to make the woman in front of him notice him. Unfortunately, he seems to have backfired. "So that's it. It seems that Zhong Mou has gone astray. However, Jinyang City has been taken from the hands of King Jin, so don't waste it. Zhong Mou gave Jinyang to Master He." He Ran was startled: "You want to give Jinyang Bai to me? You don't want Feng Jieying anymore?" Zhong Yi nodded: "Exactly." He Ran asked again: "You won't regret it?" Zhong Yi couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, showing a nice curve: "I won't regret it, but I have a condition." He Ran immediately became alert. This Zhongyi was a Jin Yiwei. Jin Yiwei was never easy to get along with and was full of tricks. "What conditions?" He Ran asked. "Zhong wants to talk to Feng Xieying." As soon as these words came out, Zhong Yi saw the expression on He Ran's face: "You're a liar, you must have bad intentions." Zhong Yi smiled helplessly, but He Ran finally showed a little bit of what a little girl should have. look. "When Zhong is talking to Mr. Feng, Master He can send someone to monitor him or monitor him personally," Zhong Yi said. He Ran: It sounds like she likes to peek into other people's privacy. However, she really wanted to know what Zhong Yi wanted to talk to Feng Xieying. "What if your negotiation breaks down?" He Ran asked. "That is also a matter between Zhong and Mr. Feng. It will not affect my commitment to Master He. Since Zhong is willing to give Jinyang City away, he will not regret it because of anything or anyone."
