Chapter 41

Seeing Lu Wanlan's obsequious smile, as if she was quite curious about this scene, Lu Yunce asked her to change her clothes and pretend to be a young man, and went with him to a small teahouse called Ke Yunlai on Ping'an Street.

It's a coincidence that Xianggu, who went to the palace to accuse my younger sister yesterday, also came from here.

The second elder brother Lu Yunfan and the fourth elder brother Lu Yunzhao heard it, is this okay? !
The little tea house not only wanted to give Lu family a bad name in the business field, but even dared to kill the younger sister!
News spread from the palace that the executed Xianggu was sent into the palace by members of the Wang family.From this point of view, the boss behind Ke Yunlai must have something to do with the Wang family!

If you don't want to make a fuss, do you still keep it for the New Year?
So the second brother, Lu Yunfan, went to the Huanyi Building early this morning, and said to the girls: "Today is closed for a day, and I will take you out to have fun!"

See if your Qingluan Brocade Sleeves are as good as your master's rouge and gouache!
After listening to Lu Yunce's description, Lu Wanlan was puzzled all the way. It is said that the queen dowager and empress came out of the royal family, so they are relatives of the emperor.At the feet of the emperor, if you open Xianggutang, you are not afraid of being caught by Mrs. Duan to read a book?
Moreover, taking someone to make a fuss in the Cishou Palace without even finding out his own details is not quite like the Wang family's style of doing things.

On the contrary, Xie Minmin's calmness was too abrupt, and then he donated money in a calm manner.

This Xie family is getting more and more unfathomable.

In a blink of an eye, the two of them reached Ping'an Street, and Lu Wanlan saw pedestrians jostling each other, and there were several carriages blocking the way ahead.Then he pulled Lu Yunce and jumped down: "It's not far anyway, let's go over there."

As he spoke, he folded his fan and walked into the noisy market with his head held high.

"Little, little brother! Wait for me!" Lu Yunce just nodded, when he saw his little sister like a wild horse that had run loose, he yelled and followed her.

Lu Wanlan, who was in the crowd, seemed quite excited.

The cries around were endless, and the array of novelty gadgets on the stalls immediately attracted her attention.

Small merchants and peddlers saw this handsome young man with extraordinary clothes.Then he yelled desperately.

"Wood carving, folding fan~ Young master, buy a wood carving and go back to play?"

Lu Wanlan was not interested in these decorations, so she walked forward again.

"Sugar blower, hello! A sugar figure whose ancestral craftsmanship can be large or small, what kind of sugar figure do you want to blow up?"

"Young master, can you buy a flower for the girl?"

Stopping and walking along the way, she just watched and didn't buy.After several visits to the Golden House, the legendary Ke Yunlai Teahouse appeared in front of us.

Lu Yunce followed closely behind. Seeing the little girl glanced at the couplets on both sides of the gate, she couldn't help but read out:
"One pot of tea for Qianqiu Weiye, three cups of wine for Wanzhang Hongchen. Hmph! His tone is not small!"

Seeing that the sixth brother scoffed at this small teahouse, Lu Wanlan didn't take it seriously, but hurriedly put away the folding fan, imitating the frivolous appearance of the second brother Meng Lang, and deliberately said in a rough voice: "Brother Yun Ce, please!"

"Haha, son, please."

After finishing speaking, the two of them walked in through the inconspicuous little door.

Although the scenery inside the teahouse is not unique, it is still clean and elegant.

The shop waiter saw that although the two of them were not very old, they had pink faces and vermilion lips, and brocade clothes. At first glance, they were the sons of rich families.Without asking any further questions, he was led to the private room on the second floor.

"The two sons are coming back?"

He greeted the two of them to sit down, and quickly took the purple sand pot from the attendant's hand. While chatting, the bright and clear tea soup had already fallen into the white jade cup on the table.

Lu Yunce then picked up the teacup, blew on it and said, "That's right, what's good about you, just come up."

As he spoke, he took a sip of tea: "Ahem, cough, what are you! It's bitter and astringent, are you fooling me?"

The waiter was not frightened by Lu Yunce's anger, but rather calmly replied:

"Oh, my lord, please calm down. All the distinguished guests who come to us think this tea is delicious. Maybe you are not used to drinking it."

Never seen a store like this before, Lu Yunce was about to get angry again, but Lu Wanlan coughed lightly:
"Haha! My brother is new here and doesn't know much about it. Can you tell me, what is the value of this young master?"

Hearing this, the waiter's eyes lit up obviously, and he instantly changed his respectful face:

"Is this young man an expert?"

"I saw him staying on the stage." Lu Wanlan lightly opened her folding fan, covering half of her face, "Could it be that he's the only son of yours?"

"Hey~ how can it be." The waiter in the shop laughed all over his face, "Although there are quite a few Xianggu in the small shop, if we say that the leader is Fang Qiwen!"

When Lu Wanlan heard this name, she raised her eyebrows to signal him to continue talking.

"That's right, this..." The shop clerk seemed a little embarrassed, "If the young master takes a fancy to him, I'm afraid I can only borrow the light of the second master of the Lu family to listen to the song."

"how do I say this?"

"I don't know why, early this morning, the second master of the Lu family brought dozens of girls to order Fang Qiwen to play the piano and sing songs~" the shop waiter said, pointing to the elegant room opposite them, "then The second master is sitting inside, and the girls are all on the first floor."

After listening, Lu Yunce and Lu Wanlan signaled him and the attendant to go out.

Looking down through the fence in front.

In the center of the platform on the first floor, Fang Qiwen's back was facing the direction of the two of them. He had three thousand black hair and was covered with plain mottled silk gauze. Looking from his back, he could be regarded as delicate.

After playing a melodious and melodious minor tune, praise applause came from all directions.

The girls from the Huanyi Building sitting across from him should talk and smile, but they didn't take this Xianggu seriously at all.

It was the girl who ordered the song, picked up the wine glass with her soft fingers, and walked up to her with a slender waist twisting like a water snake.

Fang Qiwen raised his eyes like autumn water: "Miss Xie, Xiaosheng doesn't..."

With a sound of "Bah!", a glass of turbid wine was splashed head-on, "I'm not satisfied with what I'm playing!"

"Exactly! You dare to mess around in the capital with this kind of trick."

Another girl raised her hand and threw an egg, which instantly hit the powdery cheeks.

At this time, Lu Wanlan noticed that the clothes on his body were not fashionable, but were stained with tea and wine that hadn't fully dried yet.Presumably it was the second elder brother who made the girls deliberately difficult.

Lu Yunce, who was not surprised by this kind of scene, couldn't help sighing:

"Second brother, what is he doing? This Xianggu's younger brother almost hurt you, little brother, so repairing him like this, isn't it too cheap for him?"

"No." Lu Wanlan smiled, "This Fang Qiwen is a serious scholar, he is proud of his talents, even if he is a poor man, he will not commit himself to the rich and powerful, and use a brothel girl to slander his most proud piano skills. .”

"I understand, just like the oiran in Huanyilou, who is not for sale..."

Just as Lu Yunce was talking, he heard a loud singing from the private room of the second brother Lu Yunfan:
"Tianzi No. 100 room, pay [-] taels of silver, and the buyer will play a song."

In an instant, the guest came and everyone whispered to each other.

"Did Mr. Fang offend someone? This is 25 times in a row!"

"Yeah, it's really miserable to be humiliated after playing it."

"Then what can we do, Ke Yunlai's way of hospitality has always been that whoever has money is the uncle, and he has to do whatever he is asked to do!"

"But it's not quite right, today is the sixth day of the lunar new year."

"What happened to the sixth day?"

At this moment, seeing Fang Qiwen's sullen face, his red and swollen fingers covering the strings again, the teahouse became quiet again.

Before the sound of the piano sounded, another singing came from the elegant room:

"Tianzi No. 1000 room, [-] taels of silver, the buyer's son holding charcoal music."

After hearing these words, the whole teahouse was in an uproar.

"This is too bullying! What kind of hatred!"

"What is the Charcoal Sonata?"

"That is, let him hold the red-hot silver charcoal in his hand..."

The voices of discussions from all directions naturally reached Lu Wanlan's ears.

This trick is indeed vicious, but with the character of the second brother, if he wants to avenge himself, he just smashed the teahouse, wouldn't it be fine?

Why make such a request?Is there another purpose?

Just when Lu Wanlan was puzzled, she heard a deep and resolute voice from the private room on her left:

"Second Master Lu has been playing for two or three hours, and he must be tired of playing. Why don't we change the game."
