The candle flame flickered, faintly, and behind the screen, a figure was reflected.

Hearing Jian Ruocheng's answer, the figure behind the screen moved slightly.

The voice was already cold.

"It seems that His Royal Highness King Ning's sincerity is nothing more than that."

"How can your words be seen?"

"Hmph, if he had been sincere with us, he wouldn't have sent a nobody to negotiate."

Nanyan subconsciously frowned.

You must know that Jian Ruocheng, as the second son of Jian Tongguang, once served as the right minister of Zhongshu Province in the court, even if he took refuge in Ning Wangfu, his status is also very important, no matter who will call him a "nobody".

The person behind the screen, if not ignorant, is too arrogant.

However, hearing the other party's contemptuous words, Jian Ruocheng's face did not have a moved expression, he just raised his eyes calmly and looked at the figure on the screen.

"Your Majesty's intentions are understood."

“……”

"However, no matter whether he is really a nobody or not, but he came with the sincerity of His Royal Highness King Ning, how can it be said that His Royal Highness King Ning is insincere?"

This time, the other party was stunned for a moment.

The person behind the screen raised his head, as if looking at Jian Ruocheng.

"Honor and disgrace are not shocked, and peace is safe. You may be a nobody, but not a nobody. ”

Jian Ruocheng said calmly: "Your Excellency praises. ”

The other party sneered again, and suddenly said: "Even if you are not a nobody, your King Ning's sincerity makes this seat very dissatisfied." This deal—"

Jian Ruocheng frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Could it be that Your Excellency wants to cancel the transaction?" ”

"Cancel, it's not necessary," the other party said coldly: "It's not just you who want to buy this batch of iron. It's up to you to make a deal with whoever you can satisfy me. ”

Jian Ruocheng frowned and said, "There are other people on the ship who want to buy this batch of ironware?" ”

"Not bad."

Hearing this, Nanyan's eyes lit up as soon as he heard this—was there another group of people who came to bid with them for this batch of ironware?

So what should they do?

At this moment, an angry roar suddenly sounded next to him: "Who is eavesdropping there!?" ”

Nanyan was startled for a moment, and saw two people dressed as guards rushing up, and before she could react, her shoulders had been held down by a big hand.

"Ahh

Nanyan exclaimed, and his other hand had been grabbed and clasped behind him.

At this time, the people in the room also heard the movement outside.

"What happened?"

"Master, someone is eavesdropping outside."

"Oh, bring in."

"Yes."

After saying that, the two guards opened the door and escorted her in with Nanyan's hand.

As soon as Nanyan looked up, he saw Jian Ruocheng standing up in a panic.

And she saw the room in its entirety.

It was indeed a very large room, larger and more spacious than what had just been seen in the crack in the door, like a tall temple.

But the furnishings inside were very simple, except for the layers of veils hanging down from the roof, and the screen in front of Jian Ruocheng, the others were almost empty.

The screen and the veils seemed to divide the large room into countless worlds, faint and faint, making it impossible to tell what was on the other side.

Nanyan only saw the figure behind the screen.

"Nanyan!"

As soon as she saw Nanyan being caught by them, Jian Ruocheng hurriedly stepped forward and protected her.

"Let her go, and don't hurt her."

Naturally, the two guards would not listen to him, but fortunately, for the sake of the guests, the strength of their hands loosened a little, and then they said to the person behind the screen: "Master, it is this woman who is eavesdropping outside!" ”

"Oh......"

The figure behind the screen was slightly straight.

It seems that he is looking at himself through the screen.

Nanyan's hands were clamped, and it hurt a little, Jian Ruocheng was distressed, and hurriedly turned around and said: "Your Excellency, don't misunderstand, she is the one who came with me, because the wind and waves at sea are too strong, she was already unconscious when she got on the boat, and she was arranged to rest in the cabin." She must have woken up and come to me. ”

After speaking, he lowered his head to Nanyan and said, "Right, Nanyan?" ”

At this time, of course, Nanyan had to follow his words, after all, he was originally looking for him.

"That's right, I just don't know where I am, and there's no one around, so of course I'm going to come to you."

Jian Ruocheng immediately said: "This is just a misunderstanding, please let your people let her go." ”

“……”

The man behind the screen remained still.

Although he could only see an outline, Nan Yan seemed to be able to feel that a pair of eyes were behind the screen, looking at him intently.

After a long time, a low voice came from behind the screen—

"Division-South-Smoke."

“……！”

Nanyan was startled.

Unexpectedly, this person actually knew his full name.

Jian Ruocheng was also taken aback, and looked at the figure reflected on the screen with some surprise, but saw him raise his hand and wave lightly at the two guards: "Let her go." ”

"Yes, master."

The hands of the two guards immediately let go.

Nanyan staggered for a moment, and was immediately supported by Jian Ruocheng, he held her hand, and said softly, "You're not injured, are you?" ”

Nanyan shook his head, but when he raised his hand, he saw that his wrist had already been scratched with a few red finger marks.

However, now is not the time to care about this.

She bit her lower lip and looked at the figure on the screen.

"You, know me?"

“……”

The other party fell silent.

Jian Ruocheng also frowned, even if it was understandable that the other party knew him, but why, would the other party know Nanyan?

He said, "Your Excellency, who is it?" ”

“……”

"Since we are making a deal with King Ning, and we are here on behalf of King Ning, shouldn't we be honest with each other?"

“……”

"Your Excellency keeps making a screen in the center, but refuses to show up, why?"

But no matter how he asked, the other party never spoke.

The figure, motionless, gradually revealed a sense of immobility like a mountain.

Jian Ruocheng felt more and more strange.

If it was anything else, he could have gone through it, or he could hold it back.

But the matter involves Nanyan, and now, they are completely on each other's boats, so it can be said that everything is under the control of the other party, even their lives.

This made him unguarded.

He said, "Your Excellency, is there nothing to say? ”

The other party was silent for a while, and then said, "It's getting late. ”

“……”

"Since both of you have experienced wind and waves to get to this boat, then, please go down and rest first."

“……”

"Our deal, tomorrow."

After speaking, I saw the man get up slowly, and then a gust of wind blew out the candle flame behind the screen.

The whole room suddenly went dark.

The figure also disappeared.

"Wait a minute."

Jian Ruocheng followed, wanting to say something more, but found that there was no one behind the screen.
