The river breeze should have been cool, but in summer, Dajiangcheng is like a stove, and the river breeze turns into a heat wave.

The woman with a pale face stood by the river, her eyes not focused, as if she was in a daze, but she could not see any sweat on her body.

The sound of cicadas is a bit noisy, and dragonflies are flying all over the sky.

A scholar Fang Guan walked along the mountain road. From a distance, he saw the woman at the foot of the mountain in the north. He was very happy. He jumped up and headed to the river.

The woman on the riverside was dressed in white clothes. When she heard the movement behind her, she looked back indifferently, and then was stunned.

"Jingyue, Jiyue..."

After hearing the shout, the woman came to her senses and smiled Yanran: "Well, Wen Yuan, I'm here."

Scholar Fang Guan was naturally Xu Jie. Xu Jie walked to He Jiyue a few steps, grabbed her hand, and said, "Why are you dazed here?"

"I wasn't dazed, I just had nothing to do. Why did you come back suddenly? Are you busy with everything in the capital?" He Jiyue subconsciously twitched her arm, but was held tightly again.

"I came from Hangzhou, and went up the river to recruit shipbuilding craftsmen everywhere. I want to see you, I want to marry you." Xu Jie said bluntly. Xu Jie never revealed his longing for He Jiyue, but it does not mean that Xu Jie did not miss her in his heart. Xu Jie didn't need to do the recruitment of craftsmen in person.

He Jiyue was inexplicably excited when she heard this, but she was not shy. Instead, she said, "You should look for what my father said."

Xu Jie nodded repeatedly: "It should be true. I came here to meet Mr. He. Not only did I propose marriage, but I also discussed important matters."

"Yuan Dao you came back because of something important?" He Jiyue frowned and complained.

Xu Jie quickly explained: "I took this matter on my mind because I was thinking of you, otherwise I would just call Uncle Ba to come."

He Jiyue smiled sly, obviously teasing Xu Jie.

Xu Jie was also smiling silly. I don’t know how long I haven’t seen Xu Jie show such a simple smile. I heard Xu Jie ask, “Have you healed from the injury?”

He Jiyue nodded: "Okay."

Xu Jie shook his head again and said, "You still have a pale look on your face, so it must be that it's not good."

"It's great, but I haven't moved for a long time. I haven't even practiced the sword recently, and I have lost some blood." He Jiyue reached out and stroked the hair next to her cheeks. Perhaps she felt warm and her cheeks were a little rosy.

Xu Jie felt relieved and sat directly on the grass and said, "I'll sit with you and tell you what I've encountered recently."

He Jiyue did not sit on the grass with Xu Jie, and was still standing upright. Obviously, she was taking care of her white clothes. The girl was still so obsessed with cleanliness, but she also heard him laugh and said, "I know, I heard that you, the gods, come down to earth and know magic! You will have the appearance of a golden body and a sword can kill millions of people."

He Jiyue was teasing Xu Jie, and he knew that Xu Jie was going to brag about his great achievements.

Xu Jie was naturally preparing to brag and show off. He was a little embarrassed when he heard He Jiyue's teasing, but he replied with a shameless face: "You even know about magic, do you know?"

"I don't know how shameless." He Jiyue was talking about Xu Jie's shamelessness.

But Xu Jie suddenly pulled his hands and pulled down He Jiyue, whom you didn't want to dirty your clothes, just sat on Xu Jie's lap, and even heard Xu Jie say, "The ground is dirty, my clothes are clean."

He Jiyue immediately struggled and remembered that Xu Jie naturally couldn't do what she wanted.

After the two of them were in such a stalemate, He Jiyue was ready to give up resisting.

At this time, a coughing sound came from not far behind the two.

Xu Jie quickly let go, and He Jiyue stood up immediately.

"Ahem, that... the rice is ready, go home for dinner." The person who spoke was He Zhenqing. He really came to ask his daughter to go home for dinner, but he didn't want to bump into this scene. If He Zhenqing had seen this scene, he would probably draw his sword to kill the prodigal son, but today he became abnormal.

"Father." He Jiyue didn't feel shy just now, but now she lowered her head and her face was flushed.

Xu Jie, who had quickly gotten up, had already bowed and was very nervous: "I have met Master He."

He Zhenqing looked at his daughter, then looked at Xu Jie, nodded and asked, "How come a big man like Master Xu has the time to come to my small hill?"

He Zhenqing's tone was not very good. He didn't take action to cut down the hooligan just now, so he was already the greatest restraint.

"President He, here we have something to discuss with each other."

"What a big deal? I have to bother someone like Master Xu to come here in person?" He Zhenqing held his face and was a little sarcastic.

Xu Jie hurriedly said: "It is related to the development plan of Fengchi Sect. The court wants to unleash the sea ban. Fengchi Sect has many good players and is accustomed to sailing and breaking the waves. He comes to invite him to go to sea for trade. Needless to say, Fengchi Sect will definitely make a fortune."

The important thing Xu Jie wants to discuss with He Zhenqing is to go to sea. The Fengchi Sect has been lying all over the river. Needless to mention the skills of boat driving, although there are differences between sea ships and river ships, there are many similarities, and it will be twice the result with half the effort to learn. If you really want to talk about boat driving talents, there are not many under the Xu family, but He Zhenqing has many under the command. Moreover, most of these boat driving people are good at martial arts.

In the final analysis, Xu Jie wants to tie the Fengchi Sect to his own marine interest group.

But Xu Jie didn't expect that He Zhenqing snorted coldly when he heard this: "Don't go!"

After saying "I won't go", He Zhenqing turned to He Jiyue and said, "Let's go home for dinner."

Seeing that He Zhenqing was about to leave, Xu Jie hurriedly said, "President He, it's okay not to go out to sea. This is just a small matter. There is another big matter. I must talk to Master He in person."

He Zhenqing ignored it and took a step and left.

"President He, please marry Jiyue to me. I will agree to you with all the conditions." Xu Jie shouted out.

He Zhenqing stopped and looked back at Xu Jie, just as he saw Xu Jie bowing down.

He Zhenqing was silent for a moment, sighed, and asked, "Have you eaten, kid?"

"No...I haven't eaten." Xu Jie, who bent down, looked up and answered slightly.

He Zhenqing said again: "Follow up the mountain to have a simple meal. It's a guest from afar. You always have to entertain a meal. Explain your trip to me clearly."

Xu Jie stood up and followed with confusion. He couldn't understand what He Zhenqing meant. He just said that he was out of the sea, but He Zhenqing said directly that he couldn't go. Now he asked Xu Jie to explain it clearly.

Confusion is doubt, but Xu Jie couldn't help but think too much. He Zhenqing had already flew forward, and Xu Jie and He Jiyue naturally stood up and chased after him.

During the meal, Xu Jie, with doubts, finished a bowl of rice in a few mouthfuls, just waiting for He Zhenqing to ask questions.

He Zhenqing was not in a hurry, chewing slowly, holding a black face. Xu Jie waited for a long time before He Zhenqing asked: "Where are you going to go to sea? What kind of business do?"

Xu Jie said bluntly: "The foreign countries highly value many things in Dahua. From ceramics to silk, as long as you go to sea, it will be expensive and have huge benefits. These are the second most important things to go to sea to occupy territory and plunder the population. Many masters in the Fengchi School must rely on their confidants and benefit from all interests. He Zong does not have to worry too much, this is the national policy."

He Zhenqing nodded, but only replied: "Call your second uncle to discuss with me."

Xu Jie felt puzzled again when he heard this. How could the second uncle Xu Zhong know much about this national policy? Xu Jie is the man who operates it, so why did Zhenqing ask the second uncle Xu Zhong to discuss it?

"President He, the second uncle should understand clearly and talk to Master He later." Xu Jie replied.

"You can't talk about these things, so I'll ask your second uncle to talk about it." He Zhenqing said again, then picked up a cloth towel and wiped the corners of his mouth, got up and turned around and left.

Xu Jie sat at the dining table in a daze, thinking about it again and again.

Xu Jie thought it through. After thinking it through, Xu Jie smiled, shook his head and stood up, and said to He Jiyue: "Jiyue, I will go back to Qingshan and come again in two days."

He Jiyue looked worried and said, "Maybe my father won't agree to you."

Xu Jie said confidently: "Don't worry, Jiyue, things are done, just wait to marry me. Master He just wants to make some face."

He Jiyue didn't understand, but was still worried about sending Xu Jie out.

Xu Jie didn't explain much. He just needed to understand some things, and just do it, and it should be.

In the past, He Zhenqing took the initiative to hint at Xu Jie and He Jiyue's marriage issue. At that time, Xu Zhong thought that Xu Jie would pass the imperial examination in the future, but did not respond to He Zhenqing's hint.

Now that Xu Jie talks about this, why does He Zhenqing have to talk about it? It is naturally a matter of face. This time it was Xu Zhong's turn to come to ask for marriage. Xu Zhong asked for it. He Zhenqing was in a dilemma and was satisfied.

As for what goes out to sea, it is not a matter. Xu Zhong asked for a marriage, so there is no need to talk about other things. Xu Jie, the only son-in-law, naturally said what he said.

Xu Jie, who was leaving, waved goodbye to He Jiyue and smiled bitterly.

Why do you smile bitterly? Even if Xu Zhong is in trouble, he will inevitably be humble. He always asks for marriage. As long as it is not too much, it is not an exaggeration to ask for it.

As for why He Zhenqing was willing to marry He Jiyue to Xu Jie again? Xu Jie could figure it out. One reason was that he loved his daughter and was unwilling to see his baby daughter for the rest of his life and was helpless.

Secondly, it is probably because Xu Jie's identity is really extraordinary now, with power all over the world, and perhaps no one else is inferior to that person. A son-in-law with such a status will naturally not let He Zhenqing be shamed.

After Xu Jie left, He Zhenqing was also educating his daughter: "Jiyue, you have been to the back mountain these days, and you have not given any instructions for your father. You are not allowed to come out, let alone see the boy of the Xu family."

He Jiyue looked sad and refused to answer.

He Zhenqing raised his hand and shouted, "Yishan, look at her, the girl is outgoing, watch her."

It was just a pain that Li Yishan, the senior brother of Fengchi Sect, also frowned and said, "Master is really embarrassing my disciples. How can my disciples watch their junior sister?"

"Aren't you already innate? How can you not bear it?" He Zhenqing said angrily.

"Master, how can the disciple be compared to the junior sister's innate, disciple..." Li Yishan, who had entered the innate state, cried with a sad face, obviously knowing that he could not do this job.

"I can't bear to see you, so I'll drive you out of the sect." He Zhenqing said angrily, and if he didn't say more, it was obviously not a joke.

Li Yishan was so scared that he bowed repeatedly: "Master, just spare your disciple."

"Hmph!" He Zhenqing had already left with his hands behind his back.

Li Yishan had no choice but to look at He Jiyue and said, "Junior sister..."

He Jiyue lowered her head and replied, "Senior Brother, let's go, go to the back mountain."
