Work overtime

Chapter 297 Mysterious Woman
There seems to be no shortage of rich people in the capital.

Most people's memory is only three seconds like a fish.

Just like so many corrupt officials who have just surrendered to the Inspectorate, Tianxianglou is still in full swing.

Many people even came to Tianxiang Tower to inquire about the news.

First-hand information is a scarce resource in any dynasty.

People have been gossiping about plotting to rebel and assassinate the emperor these days, but there is less fear and more enjoyment of watching the theater.

With a bit of regret and aftertaste, he talked about the beautiful young ladies who appeared in Tianxianglou in the past, and gossip about the love and hatred between Mo Niang, the former number one, and high-ranking officials in Beijing, as well as the bed and curtain secrets with the imperial physician.

There was a lively discussion about the big boss behind Tianxianglou, and the inside story about Tianxianglou changing hands and changing the big boss.

I heard that the big boss of Tianxianglou is actually a white glove for a corrupt official. After hearing the news of the anti-corruption, he was afraid of being killed by the corrupt officials and fled ahead of time, but was hacked to death on the way.He also said that he was in true love with Mo Niang, and he had already escaped with Mo Niang, following the example of Fan Li and Xi Shi, and went to live in seclusion in the south of the Yangtze River.

With a bit of flirtatiousness and obscenity, he talked about the whole process of Mrs. Wailang, a member of the bureaucracy, parading naked in the street that day, and how his family was severely punished.

As for the emperor's drastic anti-corruption measures, the people who came to the dinner were of different positions and standpoints. Naturally, each had their own attitudes and opinions. Some were happy and some were sad.

But none of this prevents people from having fun in a timely manner.

In other words, the more uncertain the future is, the more the expectation of being ransacked and beheaded in the future, the more I want to spend a lot of money, drink the strongest alcohol, and live the most luxurious life.

The private room where King Wei and the others lived was very lively. The girls arranged by Mrs. Feng were all pure and beautiful.

King Jin had his own air of coolness, and he didn't smile or talk, so he sat quietly next to King Wei, drinking green tea.When it's the turn to offer wine or be toasted, no one refuses to come, but they just sit upright, take a symbolic sip, and don't say a word.

He is not embarrassed, it is others who are embarrassed.

King Wei smoothed things over for him, and introduced to the other princes, "My sixth younger brother has always been so aloof."

The other aristocrats all smiled awkwardly, and toasted King Jin, complimenting how lucky they were to be able to drink and eat with the two princes.

The girl assigned to King Jin was specially selected by King Wei. She also came from the Jiangnan water town. She has a beautiful face, fresh and decent makeup, reserved and gentle, neither humble nor overbearing. .

Unlike the people in the brothel, she looks like a lady from everyone.

At this time, she was playing "Lovesickness", with a slight smile on her face, looking at King Jin affectionately from time to time.

With a light movement of the fingertips, the lingering sound of the piano poured out.

Unknowingly, King Jin felt tenderness and pain, and the face of the woman in front of him overlapped with that of Jiang Yuebai.

The name is ready to be pronounced, but it cannot be said, it is surging in the bottom of my heart.

Unknowingly drank a few more glasses.

After the girl had finished playing one song and the king of Wei asked her to play another one, she stood up and gave way to another woman, walked slowly to King Jin, and sat down beside him.

The slender hand stretched out, and when he was about to touch King Jin's hand holding the wine glass, King Jin suddenly withdrew his hand and pulled it back.She picked up the jug on the table, pretending to pour wine for King Jin.

A scorching fragrance penetrated into his nostrils, he immediately woke up, and said to King Wei beside him, "Third Brother, I'm going out for a walk."

After finishing speaking, he stood up straight and walked out of the box.

The King of Wei ordered the woman who was following King Jin's back, "Hurry up and serve the prince well."

"Yes." The woman responded meekly.

King Jin went out aimlessly and walked straight forward, with boxes on both sides.

Suddenly, he saw Murong Chi talking with the boss Feng Niangzi from a distance.Feng Niangzi shook her head while chatting happily.

He also saw Murong Chi take out a jade pendant from his bosom, put it in Lady Feng's hand, and said something in his mouth.

He remembered that Murong Chi once fought here with Chen Zhanghan for Mo Niang, the oiran at that time.Could it be that Murong Chi never forgot about Mo Niang, and was inquiring about her whereabouts.

This kind of affair between a literati and a brothel woman has been very common in the past dynasties.

King Jin didn't want to inquire about other people's private affairs, so he was about to turn around and leave, when Murong Chi just looked up and saw him.

The two were a little embarrassed for a moment.

At this time, King Jin's arm was suddenly held by someone. He was startled, and looked around suddenly. For a moment, he was in a trance, feeling as if Jiang Yuebai was holding him.

She smiled at him, her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, sweet and soft and bright.

His heart beat with joy.

"My name is Yunxi." There was a bit of Jiangnan's soft accent in her voice.

This sentence brought him back to reality.

He took Yunxi's hand off, but Yunxi put it on again.Take it off again, and put it on again.

King Jin frowned, flicked his sleeves, and flung them away.But it was pulled up again.

Murong Chi came over to exchange greetings, and was slightly taken aback when he saw the woman beside King Jin, but quickly regained his composure.

Because this woman is really similar to Jiang Yuebai in terms of appearance and temperament, but she is a little shorter and thinner than Jiang Yuebai, and looks a little more petite.

The scene of pulling back and forth just now was very much like a young couple flirting and cursing in conflict.

Murong Chi explained with embarrassment that the box he was in was at the top of this floor, a small box for two people.

King Jin said a few words politely, cupped his hands, and left quickly.But Yunxi followed him closely, tugging at his sleeves.

"Master, son!"

Looking in Murong Chi, I feel confused and weird.

This woman looks like a young lady on the third floor, is it just a coincidence?
"Sister Chuyu's performance is about to start. I know there is a good place to watch, and it's still quiet. Why don't I take you to see it now."

King Jin shook his head, "Don't follow me, I just want to walk by myself."

"Then I will follow the prince and accompany the prince."

In the box, she already knew the identity of the person in front of her.Naturally, she couldn't afford to offend a person of this status, and she couldn't get high even if she wanted to.

King Jin didn't bother to talk to her.keep going.

Suddenly there was the sound of music and people's screams and cheers.

"Sister Chu Yu is here! Let's go!" Yun Xi said with a smile, and couldn't help but grab King Jin's hand and run forward.

They led him into a small room, and there was an inner room in the room. The windows in the inner room were wide open, facing the stage in the middle of Tianxiang Building.

"This is the good place I just told the lord. Is the location very good and clean." Yunxi said proudly.

At this moment, Chu Yu jumped down from the fourth floor wearing a veil, a red inner skirt and a white veil.

There was no tragedy of blood splashing on the spot, but like a fairy, holding on to the transparent pink silk hanging from the sky, making various difficult dance moves in the air.

From one silk to another.

Light as if weightless.

In the end, it slowly landed on the second floor, and the pink silk was alternately pulled out to form a lotus-like stage.

And she was dancing with the music on the silk.

It leaps up, flutters its wings like a bird, and falls down as light as a feather.The silk and satin never fell down significantly.

How light it must be.

There are also gold powder sequins and colored threads sprinkled from the air.

dreamlike.

The red skirt is swaying, and the white gauze is flying.

The warm flames are emitting curls of green smoke.

Wild yet so pure and romantic.

The ribbons were removed one by one, and the area supporting her feet became smaller and smaller.

Everyone's hearts followed her in the air.

Until the last one was left, she didn't seem to pay attention to her feet at all, standing on the ribbon, walking from the center of the hall to the front hall, and from the front hall to the terrace on the second floor at the end of the ribbon.

The steps of the terrace lead directly to the central stage on the ground floor.

A young girl who was equally beautiful held her hand and slowly walked down the steps of the terrace, her steps were graceful and light, like a fairy.

She wore a translucent veil over her face, framing her perfect jawline.

Curved willow-leaf eyebrows, a pair of bright and clear almond eyes, seem to be able to speak, full of pride.

The clothes on his body were now glowing with little golden light.It was just sprinkled gold powder sequins.

There had been all sorts of noise, screaming, talking.

The entire Tianxiang Building was unusually quiet at this time, and everyone in the audience was holding their breath and staring.

Just waiting for the moment when Miss Chu Yu lifts her veil.

When she reached the center of the stage on the first floor, Miss Chu Yu let go of the girl's hand and stood proudly.

The beautiful girl cleared her throat and said:

"Miss Chuyu said that if you want to see the beauty, you need to apply for a membership gold card, and recharge 10 taels at a time. Tonight, there will be a separate dance on the fourth floor, 1 taels. A performance of 3000 taels, Tonight is limited to five songs, you can choose any instrument, you can choose any song. First come, first served. Don’t come again if you don’t miss the opportunity.”
