Love in Flames of War 良辰好景知几何 Episode 12

The seventh lady's birthday party was full of guests, and the wealthy wives were laughing, but Mu Zizheng sneaked into the Xiao family as a waiter. When Kang Jingxiong arrived with a gift, Xiao Haishan immediately stepped forward to greet him. Xu Zijun invited Xiao Shuyi to dance, but was scolded as a fool and returned disheartened. Mo Weiyi wanted to invite Lin Hangjing to dance on behalf of Xiao Beichen. Xiao Beichen refused and even took the female partner who came to invite him to dance. He was very sad when he saw Lin Hangjing turn around and leave.

Kang Jingxiong wanted to persuade Xiao Haishan to open the gate to himself. In the future, he will provide Beixin with a steady stream of whatever it is, but smoke and soil is a taboo for Xiao Haishan, and opium erodes the mind and body of the Chinese people, so he will not open the gate no matter what. Xiao Haishan did not agree, and Kang Jingxiong was not surprised, but he also felt unwilling to return empty-handed. The waiter accidentally spilled the wine on Kang Jingxiong, and Mrs. Qi hurriedly asked him to take him upstairs to change his clothes, and Mu Zi was quietly following him. Lin Hangjing saw Mu Zizheng's figure in the crowd, and he went upstairs just as he was about to go up and say hello.

Muzi was covering the top, bypassing the guards and sneaking into the room, but was discovered by Kang Jingxiong. The sound of gunfire was heard downstairs, and Muzi was shot in the shoulder when he was rushing to escape. After encountering Lin Hangjing, the two entered a room and hid. Lin Hangjing asked him why he wanted to assassinate Kang Jingxiong, but Mu Zizheng really couldn’t say. The officers and soldiers who searched came and saw that the door of the room was about to be opened, but was blocked by Xiao Beichen's voice. After the officers and soldiers left, Xiao Beichen even helped them close the door of the room. Mu Zizheng was reluctant to implicate Lin Hangjing, but as everything was surrounded outside, Mu Zizheng couldn't escape alone. So Lin Hangjing helped Mu Zizheng change into a suit and returned to the banquet hall pretending nothing had happened.

Xiao Haishan called all the waiters today to identify Kang Jingxiong, but found that two people disappeared. Lin Hangjing and Muzi in the crowd were worried, and Xiao Beichen looked at them with unsure meaning. Xiao Haishan brought the roster for the banquet and checked them one by one. Seeing the raw-faced Muzi was very puzzled, Lin Hangjing said that he was the painter he hired for the seventh lady. Kang Jingxiong asked now to paint to prove his identity. Fortunately, Mu Zizheng's works are indeed very good. Xiao Beichen's sudden speech made everyone nervous, but it was only to help Mu Zizheng clear the relationship.

Gunshots sounded outside the door, and everyone went out to chase. Mo Weiyi told Lin Hangjing and Mu Zizheng in a low voice that they would follow him for a while, and said that Xiao Beichen asked him to help. Everyone thought that it was an assassin who escaped outside the door, so Xiao Haishan asked Kang Jingxiong to go back and wait for news. Just as he was about to leave, Kang Jingxiong keenly discovered the slightest blood on Lin Hangjing's cuff. Lin Hangjing covered his cuffs in a panic, but Mu Zizheng disappeared again. Kang Jingxiong believed that this matter had nothing to do with Lin Hangjing. Xiao Beichen and Xiao Haishan were busy talking for Lin Hangjing, but Kang Jingxiong was determined to take Lin Hangjing away and ask him clearly, and Xiao Haishan couldn't say anything else. The seventh lady took Lin Hangjing's hand with a worried look, Xiao Beichen stopped in front of her, but was reprimanded by Xiao Haishan. Lin Hangjing was taken away by Kang Jingxiong, and the Xiao family was at a loss.

Lin Hangjing is Lin Tangsheng's own daughter, Xiao Haishan will not be helpless, Kang Jingxiong intends to take this opportunity to make a scene. Lin Hangjing didn't say a word, Kang Jingxiong was unwilling to let go, Xiao Haishan could only decide to see Kang Jingxiong. Kang Jingxiong's condition is still to open the border for opium to pass through, and Xiao Haishan's attitude is also very clear.
