"The Dacheng Temple is located in the street market, and the far building is seen in the Confucius Temple."

"Flowers and birds and pets are surrounded by tribute courtyards, and the two sides of the Qinhuai River will be together."

This poem describes the famous Confucius Temple in Jinling. If anyone who comes to Jinling has not been to Confucius Temple, it will be in vain.

Since ancient times, Jinling has been a place where beauties and talented men are abundant. The most beautiful Qinhuai eight masters and the four talents in Jiangnan who are famous all over the world have a great relationship with Jinling, the Six Dynasties.

Today, although Jinling is no longer the capital, it is still the place for the examination of the Imperial College. The Jiangnan Gongyuan behind Confucius Temple is a test site for the scientific examination. Every year, a large number of candidates gather. Even if it is not during the scientific examination, talented people from faraway places choose to rent houses nearby to facilitate the examination, causing the talents around Confucius Temple to come in groups.

Youdao is a literati and poet. The word "saucy" is enough to attract the attention of beauties. It is reasonable that there are fireworks everywhere on both sides of the Qinhuai River.

The waterways around Confucius Temple are unobstructed, so it naturally becomes a natural place for literati and poets to hook up with beautiful women.

But I saw boats passing by on the lake, singing, dancing and music endlessly, and occasionally the sound of men and women playing, creating a world of indulgence.

At this time, a carriage combining Chinese and Western came to the Confucius Temple and stopped.

There were two young girls sitting in the car, one master and one servant, one white and one green. The woman in white was wearing a hat and her face was drooping with a white gauze, and she couldn't see her appearance. However, according to the rule that a woman would often choose a female companion who was ten times ugly than herself as the "green leaf foil" to analyze, seeing that her maids were very handsome, it can be inferred that the appearance of this woman in white must be charming.

The master and servant are neither other people, but Shen Ziyan, the daughter of Shen Wansan, the richest man in Jinling, and Xiaohe, her personal maid.

"I regret not listening to the bad idea that you, the girl, asked Mr. Li to come to Jinling. I also thought that Mr. Li was a county magistrate, how could he leave easily? If the court was punished for leaving his post without permission, wouldn't this lady have harmed him?" Shen Ziyan said annoyed, with a little worried in her tone.

It turned out that a few days ago, Shen Ziyan learned from her father Shen Wansan that the Shen family planned to jointly open Liru Bank with the British. She was not concerned about it. Unexpectedly, Shen Wansan let it go after drinking. The reason behind the Liru Bank was to fight against Li Weiguo's Asian Investment Bank. Because the Li family broke the promise and regretted the marriage, Shen Wansan had been worried about Shen Wansan's heart, so the Shen family cooperated with the British more to retaliate against Li Weiguo.

Shen Ziyan's heart has always been tied to Li Weiguo. After learning about her father's plan, she became worried, so she planned to go directly to Chongming County to meet Li Weiguo, and even planned to help her lover Li Weiguo mess up the matter of Li Ru's bank.

But as Shen Ziyan's personal maid Xiaohe, although she and Shen Ziyan are masters and servants, they are like sisters. She knows that she can't stop Shen Ziyan from helping Li Weiguo, so she gives Shen Ziyan advice and cannot go directly to find Li Weiguo, as that would be looked down upon by others.

Shen Ziyan also felt that it was inappropriate for a girl to take the initiative to go to such a faraway place to find a man. It would be injustice. If Shen Wansan knew that she had lost the face of the Shen family, something big would happen. At the same time, Xiaohe told her that this was also an opportunity. If it succeeded, the Shen and Li families might remarry.

After listening to Xiaohe's words, Chen Ziyan was immediately moved. She immediately followed Xiaohe's idea and wrote a letter to Li Weiguo. With Li Weiguo's intelligence, she would definitely understand.

However, Chen Ziyan is a lady from a wealthy family after all, and knows a lot of things. Soon after she calmed down, she felt that Xiaohe’s idea was very inappropriate. It would be very unfavorable if Li Weiguo left Chongming County privately and was used by someone with a lot of heart, so she came up with what she said just now.

"Miss, the letter has been sent out anyway, and the person will probably arrive soon. Even if you regret it, it's too late." Xiaohe said carelessly. After all, she was just a maid, so she naturally didn't think so carefully and thoughtful. After Chen Ziyan's explanation, she felt something was wrong, but she didn't care about those.

"That's all!" Chen Ziyan sighed and said, "After seeing Mr. Li, let him go back as soon as possible!"

"How can that be done?" Xiao He immediately objected: "I finally had the opportunity to call him here. Although Xiao He didn't understand the matter of Liru Bank this time, as long as Li Weiguo was willing to come, it means that he attached great importance to this matter. Miss, you must make good use of it. Maybe this is your only chance. Taking advantage of Miss Fu's whereabouts, it is not impossible to re-establish the Chen and Li families in-laws by using this matter."

"How can this work? If Mr. Li knew that I used this matter to force him, even if I got what I wanted in the future, what would he think of me?" Chen Ziyan shook her head and seemed very nervous.

"How else can you think of it? It's naturally the same as other men's women!" Xiao He said immediately: "My mother told me that in the eyes of men, women are tools for inheriting the family line. As long as you have children, they will not say anything about you. If you have a son, then you will be in a state of unshakable power. No matter how he views you, as long as you are happy in your heart."

"What if I can't give birth to a son?" Chen Ziyan asked weakly.

Xiao He rolled his eyes and said angrily: "I said, Miss, don't think about giving birth to a child first. Let's do it step by step first? Now that the eight characters are not yet mentioned, we have to play hard to get, and let Li Weiguo's guy be anxious first. As long as he is anxious, you are not a lady, you say one, one, two, two, right? He has to do it, right?"

At this moment, Xiaohe was a dog-headed military advisor, giving Chen Ziyan bad ideas.

However, Chen Ziyan did not take her heart. At this moment, she kept staring outside the carriage and searching for her lover in the crowd. As for what Xiao He, the dog-headed military advisor, said, I am afraid that the eldest lady of the Shen family's left ear would pop up in her right ear.

At this moment, there were sounds of horse hooves in front of me, and a group of people appeared in front of Confucius Temple.

A tall and snow-white horse was sitting upright, a young man in blue looked a little tired, but his eyes were particularly sharp and energetic.

This young man was Li Weiguo. After receiving a letter from Chen Ziyan, he temporarily handed over the affairs of Chongming County to Wu Yong for handling, while he rushed back to Jinling in casual clothes.

Behind Li Weiguo were Zhang Xiaoliu and other personal guards. Only fifty people came, all carrying muskets and sabers. Because Li Weiguo was riding a BMW sent by Chen Ziyan, ordinary war horses could not keep up with the speed, so Zhang Xiaoliu and others were all one and two horses, so that they could barely keep up with Li Weiguo's speed.

"Mr. Li, I'm here!" Chen Ziyan saw her beloved BMW at a glance, and the BMW was sitting upright as Li Weiguo, the little lover she was thinking about day and night.

As soon as she saw her "Prince Charming", Chen Ziyan was like other women who were in love, and she immediately forgot all the things Xiaohe had taught her before.

Seeing Chen Ziyan calling Li Weiguo, Xiaohe next to her almost turned her back and rolled her eyes, "I said, Miss, why are you so restless? Didn't we agree to refresh Li Weiguo's guy first and let him suffer a little while waiting for a few hours, are we calling him?"

Chen Ziyan immediately defended: "I should have gone to Chongming County to meet Mr. Li. Now that I have invited Mr. Li to Jinling, how can I let others wait? Wouldn't it make people laugh if I lose my courtesy?

"Hey, my eldest lady, you are really crazy by Li Weiguo. If the master knows this, you will be angry at all!" Xiaohe smiled bitterly, with a defeated expression on his face.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Chen Ziyan was exposed by Xiaohe, and was both ashamed and angry. She immediately defended: "What do you know, a dead girl? Mr. Li vowed to marry me in the future, so Li Weiguo is not an outsider. I did this just to avoid my father and his future son-in-law becoming mortal enemies."

"Miss, are you really naive? Can you believe what you used to play house as a child?" Xiao He immediately curled his lips.

While speaking, Li Weiguo heard Chen Ziyan calling him, and immediately dismounted, came to the carriage, bowed and said, "It turns out that Miss Chen has arrived. Miss Chen is tired and waited. I am deeply sorry!"

"Mr. Li—that I—apologize—should—I just arrived—" Chen Ziyan suddenly felt like a deer when she saw Li Weiguo for some reason, and she was so nervous that she said nothing, and she even stuttered.
