Chai Jing nodded, her eyes falling on Han Yan: "How about the Plum Blossom Thorn Commander?"
Han Yan shook his head in shame: "Very unfamiliar, a dull student."
She had no foundation in martial arts. Although Chai Jing chose the easiest plum blossom thorn for her, she was still a little reluctant to use it. Even though he practiced with the Plum Blossom Thorn on his body every day, at the critical moment, he still performed without any structure.
Chai Jing frowned and her voice was somewhat condensed: "You are too weak to practice martial arts. But you are unwilling to learn the art of strengthening your body and bones. Martial arts cannot be practiced overnight. What do you want to learn?"
Han Yan took a deep breath and said, "I want to learn from Master and kill people."
Chai Jing obviously didn't expect her to say that, and was a little dazed. When Han Yan was practicing martial arts before, he put an end to those skills that required long-term practice. But the key to kung fu is perseverance, and her eagerness for success does not seem to be something she only does if she likes martial arts.
"Why?" she asked.
Han Yan sighed: "Killing is just for self-protection. Han Yan knows how much he weighs and how much he weighs. He can't learn those skills. He just wants to learn the tricks of self-protection." She raised her head and looked at Chai Jing. He smiled and said, "You don't need to know kung fu to kill people, right?"
Chai Jing's expression changed slightly: "You want to learn assassination?"
"If master is willing to teach." She looked respectful, not like she was joking.
"I'll teach you how to use concealed weapons first." After a long silence, Chai Jing spoke.
Han Yan thanked him in a low voice.
Chai Jing is a good master. Although his personality is a bit eccentric, he teaches Han Yan very diligently. Han Yan was grateful to her, and said to Chai Jing when saying goodbye: "Master, if Han Yan is needed in the future, just give him instructions."
After hearing this, Chai Jing moved her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she swallowed it, and just turned her back and said "hmm". Ji Lan was a little unhappy, but Han Yan smiled and shook his head.
Chai Jing is also a person with secrets.
When he returned to the Zhuang Mansion, there were rows of purple-clad guards with swords standing at the door. Han Yan was suspicious, and saw that in addition to the guards with swords, there were also several very luxurious soft sedan chairs. It seemed that a noble person was visiting. Han Yan only said he wanted to see Deng Chan when he went out today, but he didn't expect that there would be so many guards in the blink of an eye. Ji Lan walked to the door and stuffed a piece of broken silver into the hand of a boy at the door, and said with a smile: "This big brother ,How is this going?"
The boy knew Ji Lan. He weighed the money in his hand and saw that no one noticed them. He leaned close to Ji Lan and whispered in Ji Lan's ear: "They are from King Wei. The second lady was killed by someone under King Wei today." We were rescued, and now King Wei and the master are talking in the hall. The second young lady is really lucky."
Ji Lan smiled after hearing this, and when he returned to Han Yan, he told Han Yan everything he had just said. Han Yan frowned. What a coincidence that King Wei came. Could it be that Zhou asked King Wei for help? But how could the Zhou family be so capable? It was just because of King Wei's move that the comments in the market did not dare to be too arrogant.
"Go in." Han Yan made up his mind and strode into the door.
In the hall, King Wei and Zhuang Shiyang were sitting on either side of the main seats. Zhuang Shiyang's face was full of gratitude: "Thanks to Mr. Wei for helping me with Yu'er. I really don't know how to thank you."
King Wei narrowed his eyes: "Since you and I are good friends, there is no need to say thank you. It's just that I think the second young lady in the house seems to be frightened and needs to have a good rest."
Zhuang Shiyang nodded in agreement, but in the blink of an eye he saw Han Yan walking in with Ji Lanshuhong, standing at the door and saluting him: "Han Yan has met father."
Zhuang Shiyang usually treated her with a serious smile, but today he smiled lovingly at her for the first time and said, "Yan'er is back, hurry up and salute the Crown Prince and the Crown Prince."
As soon as Han Yan entered the hall, he saw Wei Rufeng on the side and felt a little strange. Now seeing Zhuang Shiyang's attitude, he was even more suspicious. But there was a smile on her face, and she bowed to the two of them: "The daughter of the people has met Lord Wei, Crown Prince Wei."
King Wei laughed loudly: "Yan'er, you don't have to be polite. Your father and I are good friends, and you and Rufeng are peers. It's been a long time since we last met, and Yan'er has grown into such a big girl." He said quite nostalgically. He said, "I remember when I hugged you during your full moon drink, it has been more than ten years in the blink of an eye. Hahaha, time is not forgiving."
Han Yan heard that he intended to get closer to the Zhuang Mansion and even used the word "I". Hearing him say "Yan'er" again, as if he was very familiar with me, made me feel even more contemptuous.
Seeing Han Yan's unmoved look, King Wei suddenly thought and looked at Wei Rufeng: "Actually, this time the bandits kidnapped the second lady of your house, it was Rufeng who rescued him. I was in the sedan chair at the time and didn't know it. Regarding the situation outside, Rufeng happened to hear someone calling for help. At first he thought it was a young lady from some family, but later he learned from the girl that it was the second young lady of your house. What a coincidence."
Han Yan smiled and said innocently: "It seems that the bandits didn't do anything to my sister. After a whole day, sister Yushan still has the strength to call for help."
As soon as these words came out, King Wei couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed on his face. But it was Wei Rufeng who spoke: "It's all a coincidence. I am also very puzzled. The second young lady is so weak that she would be kidnapped by bandits. She is really vicious."
Does this mean she has evil intentions? Han Yan was unmoved, and even felt a little funny in his heart. He actually laughed out loud as he thought about it: "In this case, those bandits must have been caught. I would trouble the prince to send those bandits to the government for torture. It’s better to take a breath away from Sister Yushan.”
As if punching the cotton, Wei Rufeng's sarcasm was of no use to Han Yan. Looking back, Han Yan was staring at the heater in the room with a smile, without even looking at him. A trace of displeasure flashed across Wei Rufeng's gentle and jade-like face. From the beginning to now, Han Yan has never laid eyes on him. When has he been ignored like this in his whole life? Then he was a little angry with Han Yan. Coupled with Han Yan's ridicule in front of everyone yesterday, Wei Rufeng even saw a hint of disgust for her in Han Yan's eyes.
This greatly insulted his self-esteem. The more he was ignored, the more he wanted Han Yan to notice him. But this special little girl really doesn't have herself in her eyes.
King Wei is worthy of being an old fox, and he can see the turbulent undercurrent between Han Yan and Wei Rufeng at a glance. The smile became deeper and deeper: "Rufeng will definitely give an explanation to the Zhuang Mansion regarding the second young lady. They are all one of our own."
Han Yan frowned, deciding that there was something he didn't know about. Seeing Zhuang Shiyang's ambiguous smile, an idea gradually formed in his mind.
Zhuang Shiyang said, "Your Majesty, King Wei, specially sent Yu'er back today. Why don't we just stay and have lunch together."
I thought King Wei would definitely refuse, but I didn't expect King Wei to agree immediately. Han Yan was worried that King Wei was a minister in the court and there was no need to please Zhuang Shiyang, a third-rank official, but everything today clearly showed that King Wei was catering to Zhuang Shiyang intentionally or unintentionally in this alliance. Is it possible that Zhuang Shiyang has some important bargaining chip
