After listening to the guard's instructions, Hong Jin remained silent for a long while, while Meng Kang, who was at the side, felt somewhat astonished.

There was actually someone who dared to forcefully hold Hong Shuai's granddaughter at the auction house, the backer of this auction house was too strong!

Furthermore, the one who raised the price with ill intentions was obviously provoking them. With Hong Jiao's bad temper, she could of course take it easily.

The other party had clearly come prepared, and was intentionally targeting the Hong family. Moreover, he might even be an accomplice of that auction house. It seemed like this would be quite troublesome.

Hong Jin thought for a while, then ordered: "Prepare a carriage for me, I'll go take a look!"

Hearing that he wanted to take care of the problem himself, Meng Kang was even more surprised, and he kindly reminded him: "Hong Jin, is there any use in going?"

What he meant was, Hong Jin's body was weak in the first place, and now that he couldn't fight, how was he supposed to solve the problem that even Hong Jiao was trapped in?

Hong Jin humbly bowed and said: "Mr. Lei, although I, Hong Jin, am unable to train in martial arts, I still have some friends in Shanghai City. Besides, since the other party saw me as a sick man, he probably wouldn't be able to fight. It won't be a problem, Mr. Lei, please go back to your room to rest first! "

Hong Jin was a good girl, he thought that Lei Qu did not want to get involved with the battles in Shang Jing, so she invited him back to rest first.

Lei Qu chuckled twice, and said: "I said we won't leave each other's side at all. If you go over and try to be brave, whose part would it be to damage your body? Furthermore, I am also a member of the side army, it is only right for me to help Hong Shuai! I'll go with you. "

Hong Jin was slightly startled, he did not expect Lei Military Doctor to be so enthusiastic, and could only nod his head.

The two of them walked side by side, when Lei Qu suddenly spoke in a hushed tone: "Little gongzi, is it just the two of us? and you don't bring any of the mansion's experts with you? "

As he spoke, he intentionally gestured in the direction of the Compendium Pavilion.

Hong Jin suddenly laughed involuntarily, and patiently explained: "My grandfather said that as long as no outsider dares to enter the Hong mansion, the several hidden characters in the mansion do not need to intervene.

"Oh!" So that's how it is, your family's upbringing is really not bad! "

Lei Qu did not speak further.

The two of them walked out of the residence together, boarded the horse carriage, and sped towards Dragon and Phoenix Pavillion like a gust of wind.

The Dragon and Phoenix Pavillion was the number one auction house in the Shanghai City. Every month, there would be a large-scale auction, and every three to five days, there would be a small-scale auction held here.

If one were to choose a place with the deepest and most abundant treasure among the Shanghai City s, besides the Great Halberd Sect's Imperial Palace, the only other place with the most flourished would be the Dragon and Phoenix Pavillion.

Six years ago, Dragon and Phoenix Pavillion auctioned a Demon Princess from the Life Taking Realm, which almost caused a decisive battle between humans and demons.

Three years ago, an Ancient Dragon Pearl that was being auctioned off in Dragon and Phoenix Pavillion was robbed by a devil cultivator while on the way to deliver the goods. Dragon and Phoenix Pavillion exorbitantly hired six longevity experts in a row to kill the devil and seize the treasure.

After this battle, the Auction House's reputation had spread far and wide. Whether it was the human town, or the demon mountain, or even the most northern bitter cold lands, the Frost Giant had all sent their treasures to the Dragon and Phoenix Pavillion to be auctioned.

Hong Jiao actually dared to offend such a huge being like the Dragon and Phoenix Pavillion. This sounded somewhat unbelievable, but after thinking about it carefully, with her kind of bad temper, it was definitely possible.

Along the way, Hong Jin and Lei Qu did not speak much, each of them having their own thoughts.

Arriving at Dragon and Phoenix Pavillion, the two walked in side by side. Under the guidance of the Hong Mansion guard, they entered the inner hall and went up to the second floor. Only then did they see the Hong Mansion guards lying on the ground in front of the box in the middle.

Seeing Hong Jin bringing an ugly man over, the people who were watching the scene at the entrance of the private box all laughed and opened a path for him.

Those who were able to watch the show here were all famous people in the Shanghai City.

Although the court officials would not be standing here personally if they were to show face, quite a few of their juniors had come.

When Hong Jin came over, someone immediately took the initiative to greet him.

"Jinyi young master is here!"

This was a greeting from someone completely familiar to him.

"Hello young master Jin, it's very lively inside!" "Be careful!"

This was someone who was slightly familiar with Hong Jin, but not a disciple from a noble family who was standing on the same side as him.

"Little Jin, go back!" "Why are you here to watch the show? Once they're done, everything will be fine!"

The person who spoke was older than Hong Jin by a few years. He had a full beard and had an aged look on his face.

Hong Jin cupped his hands towards the bearded man and asked: "Big brother Zhang, who is inside? Why are you making things difficult for my elder sister? "

The man with a full beard sighed and said, "Your sister was being unreasonable to begin with. Auction is not something that can be done without reason." She rushed to their room to cause trouble, not even giving face to the people from Dragon and Phoenix Pavillion. "Isn't he trapped inside?"

"The one looking for trouble with your sister is the second young master of the Marquis family, you must be careful. We are not in control of the situation, and it is not easy to get involved.

The bearded man said in a deep voice.

"Alright! Thank you, Big Brother Zhang! I'll come and drink tea with you another day! "

Hong Jin cupped his hands and said.

After saying that, Big Brother Zhang let out a long sigh and left.

Hong Jin focused his mind, and walked to the private box's door, with Lei Qu following closely behind.

The two of them were stopped just as they reached the door.

One of them should be the head of the guard. He said, "Young Master Hong, you can go in, but it's better for you to stay outside the door. Inside are the young masters with status, please don't make things difficult for our subordinates!"

The leader of the guards had made it clear that this was a battle between nobles in the capital. People without status were not allowed to enter if they didn't have enough weight.

Hong Jin smiled and said: "This is Mr. Lei and he is my personal doctor. He is in charge of my health. "Since you're here, big brother, please make it easy on us."

It had to be said that Hong Jin's temper was very good, he was even so polite to the guards, as though it was spring.

The leader of the guards was probably infected by Hong Jin's good luck. After thinking for a bit, he gave in and said.

Remove the knife and enter!

"Hong Jin glanced at Lei Qu with some difficulty. He knew that the moment he saw Mr. Lei Qu, the blade would be at his waist.

Who knew that Lei Qu would so casually pull out Miao Dao from his waist and throw him to the head guard, and coldly said: "In front of a true expert, there is no difference if you have a blade or not!"

The leader of the guards did not refute, but only chuckled.

He could tell with a glance that this ugly soldier's cultivation level was not high. Even if he were to enter, he would be treated as cannon fodder. If he wanted to throw away his life, he could only leave it to him.

Thus, Hong Jin and Lei Qu entered the private box at the same time.

Although this room was called a private room, it was actually as spacious as a main hall. There was already a full circle of people inside and out.

Meng Kang looked carefully, at the center of the circle, Hong Jiao and the remaining guard from the Hong family were forced into a corner, his entire body was drenched, it was unknown if it was because of the spilled wine or water, if it wasn't for the guard protecting her, he was afraid that it would be even worse.

Seeing that Hong Jin had finally arrived, the human wall suddenly had a crack.

Hong Jin's gaze swept across the people in the private room, and couldn't help but be a little apprehensive.

The Marquis of Martial's second son, Qi Yun, was sitting in the middle. Beside him was the Marquis of Yiyun's son, Zuo Yishan, and the second son of the Marquis of Wind, Lu Fengxiao. There was also the Marquis of Giant Mountain's son, Pu Wei Tang, and last year's prime minister, the current military chief's son, Wu Jinghong.

These people present were all prestigious and powerful disciples of the Shanghai City. It was not an exaggeration as all of their father added together, was practically half of the continent of the Great Halberd Sect.

The Second Young Master of the Marquis of Martial Arts saw that Hong Jin had arrived, he waved his hand at him and said: "Jinyi Young Noble is here! Sit here! "

Hong Jin nodded, and did not walk to Qi Yun's side, but walked towards his elder sister Hong Jiao.

Hong Jiao was drunk from head to toe, and looked to be in a sorry state. Seeing her younger brother here, she bit her lips, and her expression turned ugly.

Hong Jin and Lei Qu walked to the front of Hong Jiao, and the two of them had a very tacit understanding and did not say a word.

Hong Jin turned around, and cupped his hands towards the young masters, and said loudly: "Everyone, I, Hong Jin, apologize to everyone for how I offended you! "How about we stop here for today?"

Even in the face of so many powerful young masters, Hong Jin was still able to remain calm. His expression was normal, as expected of Hong Shuai's grandson.

After Hong Jin finished speaking, the entire room was completely silent. Everyone was waiting for Second Young Master Qi to speak.

Qi Yun shook his head, and said unhurriedly: "Hong Jin, we have been playing since young, so it can be considered that we have some friendship, but today, I will not let you pass so easily, sorry!"

"Your sister relied on the might of the Marshal Hong to stir up trouble everywhere, and everyone had their grudges against her for a long time. I heard a few days ago that she galloped her horse in the east wing and even died! Today, she caused trouble again at the Dragon and Phoenix Pavillion, and coincidentally met with us brothers. Tell me, if it was you in her place, would you forgive her? "

This Qi Yun seemed to be quite shrewd, neither servile nor overbearing. Even though he held the upper hand, he still argued with reason, and with him holding the upper hand, he was truly not easy to deal with.

The Marquis of Yiyun, Zuo Yishan, snorted and said, "Is there even a need to reason with them? They are all lowly commoners' bloodlines, and they make us look like monkeys that are crowned, causing us to be despised by the common people! I must teach her a lesson today! "

This young marquis Zuo Yishan, who had spoken earlier, was very favored by the Divine Empress. At such a young age, he had acquired the position of a marquis without a care of his descendants, and was worthy of being called a leader among the second generation officials of the capital.

The other young masters of the aristocratic families also agreed with him. They all had the same opinion, and they couldn't let the Hong siblings off easily.

After they had talked for a while, Hong Jin finally raised his head and said calmly: "Everyone, what exactly do you want? "Let's cut to the next level!"
