The man next to him was burly and looked like a martial artist. He glanced at Xiao Cunyu and frowned when he saw that he had delicate skin and a refined look.
He hated pretty boys like this the most in his life.
"My name is Jiang Hanyi. I met your brother a few days ago and wanted to borrow the 'Taiping Chaosui Tu', but he declined. I was also going to visit you at the Xiao family, but I heard you were studying at the academy, so I never got to see you. I'm lucky today, and now that I've seen you, I won't hide it anymore. I wonder if Mr. Xiao Qilang really has the 'Taiping Tu'?"
Jiang Hanyi was straightforward and spoke in a rough voice.
This person's eyes are wide open and angry, revealing four white spots. His forehead and chin are full and not sunken. His nose is as solid as a sword. He must be a rich and violent person.
"You want a map too? I don't have one." Xiao Cunyu calculated the time and realized that his map should have arrived by now.
Jiang Hanyi frowned even more tightly: "Then why do you claim to own this thing?"
"Xiao Qillang, you probably don't know Brother Jiang? The Jiang family has made great military achievements, but unfortunately, General Jiang was seriously injured a few years ago and had to return to the court to recuperate. The Lord Jiang in front of you is the eldest grandson of the Jiang family and a general in the Tiance Army. This time, I borrowed your "Taiping Map" to show it to General Jiang. Please don't be willful and selfish and reluctant to part with it." Hang Lixing was simply a smiling tiger.
Looking at Xiao Cunyu at this moment, he actually hoped that he would be as carefree and unrestrained as before.
Others may be wary of the Xiao family, but the Jiang family will not.
The Jiang family, like the Xiao family, came from a military background, but the old general of the Xiao family died early, so their influence today is not as great as that of the Jiang family.
Moreover, after the old general of the Xiao family passed away, the army stationed in the north was taken over by the Jiang family. However, there were many people in the army who were dissatisfied with the Jiang family. It was said that many people had put obstacles in the way of old General Jiang. In this case, how could the old general remember the kindness of the Xiao family?
Besides, the Jiang family is even more powerful.
The Feng Dynasty has four armies and twelve guards. Many of the Jiang family’s children are in the Tiance Army. They are trusted and valued by the emperor, and no one in the capital dares to mess with them.
After General Jiang was seriously injured and recuperating, his health has been poor and he is unable to practice martial arts or march, so he can only use other things to pass the time.
Everyone in the capital knows that General Jiang now likes to grow flowers and paint in order to cultivate his mind.
The old man also particularly likes auspicious things, such as this Taiping Chaosui Tu. Both the name and the meaning will definitely make the old general happy.
In order to make his elders happy, Jiang Hanyi, the eldest grandson, would get the thing no matter what once he knew its whereabouts.
It would be fine if Xiao Qi refused in a nice tone, but with Xiao Qi's personality, he would definitely talk back. He was not good at either literature or martial arts, so Jiang Hanyi would definitely be disgusted by him.
Jiang Hanyi has a violent temper and might break Xiao Qi's bones with one kick!
At this moment, Xiao Cunyu glanced at Hang Lixing with a slightly irritated look: "Are you here to pick a fight with your brother? This General Jiang is the helper you brought in. Do you want to use his love for the Taiping Map to make me kneel down and beg for mercy?"
Hangda's expression changed, and he immediately said, "I'm just borrowing this picture out of kindness."
Xiao Cunyu glanced at the two of them and said calmly, "It's not that we can't lend it to you, but you also know that my map is really rare. If the Hang family is willing to exchange it for three treasures of equal value, then it doesn't matter if we have to make a small sacrifice."
