Bai Yueguang, the stand-in for Prince Sick Jiao

Chapter 25 The Oiran
Hearing this, everyone was shocked, and there was something wrong with Ling Youyao's eyes.

Did King Jing really like her?

Ling Youyao didn't seem to expect that Fu Mingjue's answer would be so straightforward.

Fu Mingjue didn't care what others thought, and his cold eyes fell on Zhou Su: "This king asked you to search for fugitives, do you have any clues?"

Zhou Su was so frightened that he was in a cold sweat, the domineering momentum just now had disappeared without a trace.

"Go back to the prince, not yet."

After saying these words, it seemed that he had exhausted all his strength.

Even if he hated Fu Mingjue, but with his status and status, if Fu Mingjue really wanted to deal with him, even his sister would not be able to save him.

"Without you, would you dare to embarrass me here?" Fu Mingjue's eyes suddenly turned cold.

Zhou Su was sweating profusely, and knelt down with a thud: "My lord, please forgive me, it's the lower official's dereliction of duty!"

He just wanted to make things difficult for Ling Youyao, but he kicked the iron plate.

"Since you know that you are negligent, why don't you go?"

"My lord?" Zhou Su was puzzled.

Is this going to dismiss him from the post of commander?
"If you don't leave, you won't just lose your official position," Fu Mingjue threatened coldly.

Zhou Su clenched his fists, and gave Fu Mingjue a bitter look, full of unwillingness, but could only leave in despair.

Ling Youyao stood aside quietly, staring at Zhou Su's back, frowning slightly.

Fu Mingjue withdrew his gaze, and said to Xia Cheng, "Send the princess back."

"Yes!" Xia Cheng cupped his fists to accept the order.

With Fu Mingjue around, he finally entered the city smoothly.

There were no pedestrians on the street, and even the vendors who set up stalls on weekdays closed their stalls early and went home. Only groups of soldiers passed by in a hurry, all of them looked serious, as if something important had happened.

Ling Youyao picked up a corner of the carriage curtain, saw this scene, and asked Xia Cheng: "What happened? Why are there so many people patrolling?"

Xia Cheng didn't hide anything, and replied: "Back to Wangfei, the mastermind who secretly exchanged Liangzhou armaments has been found, but today when the prince led troops to arrest him, he let them run away, and he is currently searching."

Ling Youyao remembered the Liangzhou ordnance case she saw in Fu Mingjue's study that day, and she understood it.

"Who is the mastermind?" she asked again.

Xia Cheng said all the news he knew: "It is Feng Zonghai, the Minister of the Ministry of War, and his son, Feng Yuanshan, who escaped. I heard that he took an important clue, so I closed the city to look for him."

Ling Youyao looked thoughtfully at the hurried soldiers.

Feng Yuanshan, she seems to have seen this name before.
Chaos broke out in the city, and some timid people dared not go out. The bustling and lively streets in the past suddenly became deserted, but there was one place where the singing and dancing continued.

Yuliu Street, Huixian Building.

This is the largest brothel in the capital, with red gauze curtains everywhere, and the fragrance is floating. The dancers on the stage are wearing light gauze skirts and twisting their waists.

The mother of Huixianlou is a woman who still has charm. She wears a red peony on her temples, and her frowns and smiles are still charming.

"Young master, please—"

"Master, are you here? Xiang'er is waiting for you!"

The business of Huixian Tower has always been like this, because there is Mu Xiaoxiao, the oiran who is known as the most beautiful woman in the capital, sitting here, and many high-ranking officials and nobles throw thousands of dollars just to see Mu Xiaoxiao.

But Mu Xiaoxiao never sees people easily.

Prince Yong's son once offered a coral tree from the South China Sea, but he never saw Mu Xiaoxiao, but there was one person who was able to stay in Mu Xiaoxiao's room from time to time——

At this moment, Pei Ce was lazily sitting on the cushion, drinking wine absent-mindedly. Liang Wenyao was called home. He had nowhere to go, so he came to Huixian Tower.

There was melodious music echoing in the room, but he didn't care to appreciate it.

The beauty's fingers are slender, her willow eyebrows flutter slightly, her face is like jade, her breath is like orchid, she is dressed in pure white plain clothes, quiet and elegant, she is a rare beauty in the world, but when Pei Ce looked at her, he thought of another person.
At the end of the song, Mu Xiaoxiao put down her pipa and sighed helplessly: "My lord, what's wrong with you?"

Pei Ce came back to his senses, looked into her clear eyes, and felt a little guilty for no reason: "No, the wine is not good today."

Mu Xiaoxiao smiled, took Bai Yuzhan, and said, "You have always loved Huajianzui the most, why don't you feel like drinking it today?"

Pei Ce couldn't describe the feeling, the wine had indeed not changed, but he always felt that it was not as good as before.

After a moment of silence, he said annoyedly: "Xiao Xiao, I met a girl prettier than you in Foguang Temple today."

"Really?" Mu Xiaoxiao understood in an instant, "Young master has fallen in love with her?"

"No!" Pei Ce immediately denied it.

Mu Xiaoxiao was not angry, and continued: "If you like it, son, send someone to find out who the girl is. If there is no marriage, just marry in."

"Stop talking, little one." Pei Ce frowned, feeling upset.

Just one glance made him lose his soul. He naturally wanted to know the girl's name, but after calming down, he didn't know how to face Mu Xiaoxiao.

Sitting behind him, Mu Xiaoxiao gently held his shoulders: "My lord, I know you always only like beautiful people. If I wasn't beautiful, why would you save me back then?"

Pei Ce, who had his thoughts pierced, was a little embarrassed: "I saved you, of course, because I saw a rough road and drew my sword to help!"

Mu Xiaoxiao grinned: "Yes, yes, my little girl, thank you for saving my life."

"Don't call me that, I'm just a dandy who only knows how to drink and look at beauties all day long, what kind of young man is he?" Pei Ce picked up the white jade cup, raised his head and drank the wine.

Mu Xiaoxiao smiled and said nothing.

How could the son of King Jing'an, the God of War in Great Yan, be just a playboy?

Pei Ce drank silently by himself, his eyes gradually blurred, and he muttered: "The taste of this wine seems to have really changed."

Mu Xiaoxiao didn't tell the truth, but the taste of the wine had changed, and it was obviously the change of her mind to drink.

Seeing him drinking one bowl after another, Mu Xiaoxiao couldn't bear to persuade him: "My lord, don't drink, I have a performance later, so I can't stay and serve you."

"Then I'll go first." Pei Ce pushed Mu Xiaoxiao away, stood up unsteadily and walked out.

Mu Xiaoxiao hurriedly supported him: "My lord, I'll ask someone to take you back."

Pei Ce raised his phoenix eyes slightly, leaned half of his body on her body, and said vaguely: "Beauty, I have hung all the red silk back on you, don't speak ill of me again."

Mu Xiaoxin knew that he had admitted to the wrong person, so she said, "Okay, don't say anything."

"I don't need you to see her off, I'll go back by myself." Pei Ce gently pushed Mu Xiaoxiao, and slowly walked down the railing.

Mu Xiaoxiao had no choice but to call her personal maid to call Pei Ce's servant.

Pei Ce passed through the noisy lobby, swaying, and collided with the oncoming people.

"Who are you? Dare to bump into my young master?" Pei Ce's eyes were hazy when he was drunk, and he spoke lightly.

The young man showed a flustered expression. Seeing that Pei Ce suddenly calmed down, he stepped forward to support Pei Ce: "Brother Pei, it's me, Feng Yuanshan."
